U. S. NEEDS MEN
FOR VESSELS IN
MERCHANT FLEET
Every State in the Union
Sends Recruit Quota
to Man All Ships
of Navy.
Washington, Dec. 3. Wartime
increase of the naval personnel
from 56,000 to nearly 500,000 to
man 1,800 vessels instead of 176, is
described in the annual report of
Rear Admiral Leigh C. Palmer,
chief of the bureau of navigation,
made public today. Every one of
the ships in commission, from bat
tleships to cargo carriers, Admiral
Palmer says, has "complete comple
ments of officers and men with ex
cess personnel to provide for train
ing new drafts. The navy also pro
vided armed guard and radio crews
for merchant vessels in transatlantic
lervice.
The great task now, in the opin
ion of Admiral Palmer, who re
cently was relieved from the bu
reau to take command of a battle
ship, will be in furnishing 220,000
officers and men for the shipping
board's merchant fleet, estimated to
comprise 1,924 vessels by Decem
ber, 1919. To accomplish this the
permanent training facilities have
been expanded so as to accommo
date 110,000 men at once. These in
clude the Great Lakes station with
a capacity of 45,000, Newport and
Hampton Roads 25,000 each, and
Felham Bay, N. Y., 15,000. Hun
dreds of ships are used as floating
ichools, each being assigned a cer
tain number of men to be taught
the rudiments of seamanship, and
14 institutions are conducting reg
ular courses in the training of of
ficers. .

Grenda Leads Five-Day
Bicycle Race, but' is
Breaking No Records
Madison Square Garden, New
i'ork, Dec. 3. Fourteen teams in the
six-day bicycle race had covered 522
miles and nine laps at 3 a. m. today.
The Bowker brothers were one lap
behind. Grenda was leading. The

one lap, .made by Lawson and Dro
bach in 1914.
The Drobach-Verri team with
drew from" ht race at 7:59 a. m.
Verri had been complaining of his
back for three or four hours before
the team retired.
Mitchell Would Have Dual
Training Trip to the Coast
Chicago, 111., Dec. 3. A dual
training trip to California with some
American league team if it can be
arranged, is one of the plans of
Manager Mitchell of the Chicago
Nationals. The Cubs are booked for
their spring- conditioning on the
Pacific coast next year so far as
anything can be foretold in base
ball at present. Manager Mitchell
believes the California climate is
excellent for putting ball players in
shape to contest for laurels and Wil
liam Wrigley, jr., who is the con
trolling spirit in the ownership of
the club, is of the same opinion.
Mitchell believes that mutual bene
fits could be obtained if two major
league teams were to make the trip
to, the coast and play exhibition
games out there as has been done in
the south in previous seasons by
tival teams in the two leagues.

New York Coffee.
New York, Dec. $. Conflicting opin
ion were expressed In local trade circles
her today with reference to whether th
new regulations outlined by th food ad
ministration applying to business In green
coffee would Justify a reopening of the
future market for general business.
There also seemed to be uncertainty a to
whether the modified rule would ma
terially promote Imports, and few seem
to expect any material change In local
condition until after th meeting of ex
change member on Monday had voted on
the question of reopening. The official
cables showed an advance of 176 ret at
Rio. Santo spots were 400 rel higher,
but Santo futures were reactionary, with
th cable showing a decline of 76 to 126
rets. Some further business was reported
In th cost and freight market. Including
Santo 4 at 20.75, steamer shipment,
London credit. Th local spot market
was nominal.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Dec. 3. Reports that enlarged
production of corn had been more than
counterbalanced by a 10 per cent increase
of the number of hogs In the country had
a decidedly bullish effect today on the
corn market. Prices closed unsettled, lc
to 2 '4c net higher, with December $1.30,
and January, $1.30 to $1.30H. Oat lost
o to o, and provisions gained 10c to
80c.
Inferences that owing to th great ex
pansion of the national iog-ralslnglndus-try
as compared with a year ago there
would be no unusual surplus of feeding
grain operated as the chief factor in the
corn trade, as soon a definite figure on
the subject became available. The gain in
the total of hogs on farms was put at
7,851 000, chiefly in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Iowa. On the ensuing bulge in the
corn market, much selling to realise prof
Its took place, and a material setback
from the high point of the day followed.
During the first hour of th session, too,
considerable selling on the part of recent
buyers waa noted. Influenced apparently
by auspicious weather for curing and shell
ing. Oat were relatively easier than corn.
Seaboard bid did not measure up to hold
ers views here.
Higher quotation on hog and oorn
gave strength to provisions.

FINANCIAL
New York, Dec. 8. Trading In stocks
today was moderately active and broad,
the movement tending upward until the
final hour, when prices reacted 1 to 8
points among rails, oils and specialties.
The one striking exception to the gen
eral strength 6f the forenoon and mid
session was furnished by Marine pre
ferred, which was under constant pres
surs at an extrem reversal of 6 points,
only part of which was regained.
Investment rails failed to extend their
advance of yesterday, displaying occa
sional restraint, probably because of the
conflicting opinions prevalent regarding
the government's attitude toward "modi
fled private ownership."
Steels and the entire metal division
wer firm to strong, their Improvement
being explained later by the action of
the war industries board, which fixed
domestic prices for pig tin. thereby of
fering hope of further stabilization of af
filiated commodities.
Automobile shares and subsidiaries
were stimulated by trade reports whoso
tenor suggested relief at the removal of
restrictions effective during the war. and
leathers, papers and distilling Issues
moved to higher levels, presumably for
like reasons.
Mexican Petroleum and Texas Com
pany averaged gross gain of 6 points
at their best, but these were Impaired In
the realizing for profits at the close.
Utilities and secondary specialties yielded
part of their moderate gains, the market
showing irregularity in the final dealings.
Dealings In bonds were contracted and
uncertain, Internationals ruling hlpher,
while domestic issues varied. The Lib
erty group was again heavy, with a new
minimum, for the fourth 4 'is at 96.68.
Total sales (psr value) aggregated
$9,875,000.
Old United States bonds were un
changed on call.

CASE OF GIRL
AND BOY ONE
HARDTO SOLVE
Officers Are Baffled When
Young Couple Asks to Wed
and Deny Assault
Charge.
WhaJ is proving to be a baffling
case is troubling officers in several
departments at the county court
house as well as members of the
Welfare board. .
Roy Dodendorf was arrested last
July, charged with assault on Alma
Dofner, 2117 Webster street. It is
alleged that Dodendorf, in company
with another young couple, took
the Dofner girl, who is 14 years old,
for an automobile ride, induced her
to drink whisky, and it is alleged by
the juvenile authorities, that he as
saulted her. The girl said she did
not know what happened.
Want to Wed.
The girl was taken in charge by
the Welfare board and was sent to
the girls' home at Geneva, and later
to the girls' reformatory at Milford.
Yesterday Dodendorf and the
Dofner girl appeared at the county
judge's office, accompanied by the
parents' of each, and asked for a
marriage license, having trie con
sent o( the parents on both sides.
The license was refused on account
of the age of the girl.
The case of Dodendorf was called
for Judge Redick's court this morn
'g but was postponed on account of
the sickness of one of the defend
ant's witnesses.
Girl Won't Testify.
County Attorney Magney says he
does not see how the case can be
prosecuted, as the Dofner girl has
said repeatedly that she will not tes
tify against Dodendorf, and also that
the young couple accompanying
them on the night of the alleged as
sault say no assault was committed.
The Dofner girl claims she loves
Dodendorf and wants to marry him.
The juvenile authorities and the
welfare board have the girl in their
charge and while they claim that
they are not trying to prevent the
marriage of the young couple, they
will not release the girl from their
custody. She was brought up from
Milford yesterday to be present at
the trial today.
So with the young couple wishing
to ' get married, with their parents
willing, but the county judge re
fusing license and the juvenile au
thorities refusing to release the girl,
the county attorney has no prose
cuting witness, and with two doc
tors' certificates in direct contraven
tion, the various interested parties
around the court house Tuesday
morning presented a complex con
dition. Burlington is Listing
Lands to Be Had by
the Rehiring Soldiers
Acting along the line of sugges
tions of the United States Agricul
tural department, the Burlington
railroad through its Immigration
bureau is making a survey of the
extent of vacant agricultural lands
along the sytem with ; view of
settling upon it such returning sol
diers as desire to engage in farming
and stock raising.
According to the Burlington offi
cials, along the company lines in
Nebraska there are., hundreds of
thousands of acres of unoccupied
lands that can be bought at low
prices. These 'lands are specially
adapted to stock raising and a con
siderable portion is suitable for the
raising of corn and small grain.
In Colorado and Wyoming, Bur
lington officials assert that there are
vast tracts of as fertile land as there
is in the world, now unoccupied and
for sale. In addition, in Wyoming
there is a large acreage that is sub
ject to entry under the provisions of
the government land laws. It is
pointed out that much of this land
is subject to irrigation and that the
balance is suitable for dry farming.
The idea of both the government
and the railroad company is to have
the unoccupied lands in the central
west mapped and listed and thus,
when the boys return from over
there it will be available for them.
U. S. Navy is Still Calling

terial schools of the navy are still
in urgent need of qualified men to

boilermakers, coppersmiths and men
with afcleast two years' high school
training for the navy hospital corps.
Registrants of the September 12

JOBLESS RETURN
AS SHORTAGE
OF LABOR ENDS
Employers Are Weeding Out
Incompetents as Men Be- ;
. come Plentiful,, Due
to Armistice.
Officials of the federal employ
ment bureau say there has been
complete revolution in the labor
situation here in the last 10 dayl.
A short time ago the bureau was
straining every nerve to meet de
mands upon it by employers for
various classes of labor, but now
the situation has been reversed and
applicants for places are being no
tified that there are no vacancies to
be filled and no employment to b
had in certain lines.
Weeding' Out in Progress.
The tense situation created by
scarcity of help through the war
period is becoming more and more
relaxed and retail stores and other
lines are beginning to feel the ef
fects. They have a wider range fot
the selection of individuals for ths ,
various vacancies and for replace
ment purposes and already there
has begun a weeding out of the less
efficient workers in favor of thos
who have had previous experience.
Lower Douglas and Farnaro
streets, long the favorite haunts ol
the casual workers, have resumed
their oldtime appearance. Swarms
of men belonging to less skilled
classes of labor, and who for years
have flocked to this city for winter
employment, have reappeared after
a year's absence due to the meth
ods 'of enforced employment under
the "fight or work" order.
Son of Omaha Couple
Dies Sept.1 5 of Wounds
Received in Action
Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Looker, 4728
Saratoga street, are among the many
parents of Omahs who have been
called upon to sacrifice a son for the'
cause of liberty. ,
Their son, G. W. Looker, who
died September 15 of wounds re
ceived in battle, was among the boys
who were drafted in July 1917. Upon
entering the service he was sent to
Camp Lewis where he became 'a
member of E company, Three hun-
dred and sixty-second infantry, but
after a short time was transferred to
Camp Mille, New York, and was
assigned to C company of the One
hundred and sixty-fourth infantry.
Early in December he was ordered
overseas and landed at Winchester,
England on Christmas eve. After a
few days in England, he was sent
direct to the front, and after that,
as all his letters were merely writ
ten from "Somewhere in France."
in one ot his letters he said that he
was again transferred to K com
pany, Sixteenth infantry and that he
was made one of the head mechanic
of his company. The last letter,
trhich his parents received from him
was written August SI in which he
said he was feeling fine, but was
getting "most awfully tired" of the
war.
Besides his father and mother.
Private Looker has two brothers in'
the service, Hugo in the navy and
John who was in the last draft and.
got as far as Fremont when he was
ordered back home. A younger
brother, Daniel, and a sister, Miss'.
Bertha, are at home with their par
ents. Omaha Railroad Men Like
Idea of Lovettas R. R. Head
Omaha railroad men express con
siderable satisfaction over the possi
bility of the appointment of Robert
S. Lovett as director general Of the
railroads, succeeding Mr. McAdoo. t
They point to his experience as head,
of the Union Pacific system for
many years which has given him
great railroad experience and has
tminently fitted him for the position
of director general of all the rail-;
roads.
While many of the local railroad
men are of the opinion that Mr.1
tLovett will pick the railroad plum,"
mere are a large number ot others
who are inclined to the belief that
Daniel Willard, president of the
Baltimore & Ohio will be chosen for
the place.
Tiie men who lean toward Mr
Willard contend that his varied rail
road experience which he has ob
tained by working up from the
ranks, has given a broad-gauge
view of the railroad situation and
that as the executive head of the
railroads of the United States, there
is no man better qualified.
