The last legislature passed a law
permitting women to vote on all but

WILSON'S SHIP
LYING AT PIER
READY TO SAIL
Transport George Washington
Will Be Convoyed by Bat
tleship Pennsylvania aYid
Five Destroyers.
New York, Nov. 30. The Ameri
can transport George Washington,
selected by President Wilson to
convey to Europe himself and other
members of the American delega
tion to the piece conference, will be
convoyed by the battleship Pennsyl
vania and a fleet of five, fast de
stroyers. The George Washington
is lying tonight at her pier in Ho
boken in readiness to sail on its history-making
trip at a moment's no
tice. I -
To Rear Admiral Gleaves. com
mander of the cruiser and transport
force of the Atlantic fleet, fell the
honor of providing for the presi
dential ship, arranging details of the
voyage arid the protecting force of
war vessels, and selecting the trans
port's complement of officers and
men.
Captain McCauley in Command.
Capt. Edward McCauley. U. S. N.,
commands the George Washington
and the crew has been drawn en
tirely from the navy. The escort
ing battlestiip is commanded by
Capt. Lewis Nulton.
The George Washington, a vessel
of 25,570 gross tons, was formerly
one of the crack liners of the North
German Lloyd fleet. Although it
has been used as a troop transport
for more than a year, many of its
luxurious cabin suites were not re
moved and the best of these have
been reserved for the presidential
party. When launched in 1908 the
ship was named by Dr. David Jayne
run, men American ambassador to
Germany, and it was the only large
German vessel seized bv the
United States the name of which
was not changed. Capable of mak
ing about 21 knots speed at that
time American marine engineers
have improved its engines and it
is possible that it will establish a
new record on the coming voyage.
Engines Given Last Test.
' The exact time of the departure
of the George Washington is not
yet known, but today the engines of
the big liner were given a last test

It is estimated that there is beer
sufficient to last three or four
months. Considerable grain on
hand, it is said, will be lost. None
of the breweries have as yet an
nounced any plans for conversion of
their plants into other industries.
Will Release Men Gradually.
Milwaukee, Nov. 30. Contrary to
expectations, Milwaukee brewers
will dispense with only about 1,000
men after December . 1, as a result
of the order prohibiting the brewing
of beer on that date. j
According to William H. Austin,
attorney for the Milwaukee Brew
ers association, only about 1,000
men will be affected; those working
in brew houses. It is not expected
many persons will be affected for
another six months because brewers
have enough stock on hand to last
that long. In the meantime it is
thought that men will be released
gradually for other work.
SWISS CHEER
REPATRIATED
WAR PRISONERS
Group of Americans Met by
Enthusiastic Crowds on'
Arrival at Berne
from Bavaria.
Berne, Switzerland, Nov. 30. One
hundred and fifty-six American offi
cers and noncommissioned officers,
the first prisoners of war in Ger
many to be released through Switz
erland, were repatriated yesterday.
The majority had been captured
about five months ago, although
some had been five weeks in Ger
man prison camps. A large num
ber of the men were aviators.
The men rode on a special train,
three cars of which were filled with
French and British former prisoners.
Interest, however, centered in the
Americans, since they were the first
group to be released.
The repatriated men left Bavaria
in the morning and crossed Lake
Constance. They were met at
Zurich by enthusiastic crowds of
Swiss and Americans, some of whom
sat up all night to be sure of places
from "which they could sec the for
mer prisoners of war. The wel
come at Berne surpassed almost any
thing of this kind seen in Switzer
land since before the war began.
Pleasant A. Stovall, the Ameri
can minister, and Mrs. Stovall, the
entire American legation, members
of the Red Cross, the diplomatic
corps, other allied nationals here
and high Swiss military and several
authorities lined up at the railway
station as the train pulled in nearly
two hours late. A Swiss military
band furnished a musical welcome,
while on all sides were Swiss and
American flags entwined. The crowd
jamming the platform and every
available inch of the station broke
into tremendous cheering which
was replied to by the American of
ficers on the train with "Vive La
Suisse."
The train was halted for hours,
during which the Americans were
showered with delicacies, such as
they had been unable to obtain dur
ing their imprisonment. Although
the men were supposed to remain
aboard the train, the rules were re
laxed sufficiently to allow them to
descend to greet those gathered to
welcome them. Minister Stovall
held an impromptu reception, shak
ing hands with many of the men.
Oil Company Salesmen
Report Business as Brisk-!
The Manhattan Oil company, 1343
North Eleventh street, held a meet
ing of their sales force at the Loyal
hotel Saturday to discuss business
conditions.
It "is the cusjom of this com
pany to call their salesman in once
each month and discuss the prob
lems which arise and civ. them in
structions along the line of sales
manship. ,The subject under discus
siorf this month was tires. While
the company was one of the com
paratively new industries of the city.
they have done over $1,500,000 worth
of business in the state of Nebraska
during the past year, an increase of
50 per cent over that of last year, and
they report that prospects were never
more favorable for business than
at the present time.

U. S. Mail Man Over There
Sends Back Hun Helmet
H. M. Blackwell, assistant super
intendant of the railway mail ser
vice, received a German helmet
Saturday morning from C. T. Leigh
formerly in the local mail service,
now with the U. S. mail service in
France.
The helmet weighs nearly three
pounds, and is penetrated by a bul
let hole as large as a nickel. The
position of the bullet hole shows
that Heinie was traveling in the di
rection of Berlin when toppled over
by one of our Sammies. In ad
dition to the bullet hole the helmet
is also dented in several places.
