TWENTY-THREE
EXPERTS TO SAIL
WITH PRESIDENT
Peace Delegates Armed With
Unparalleled Collection of
Data Relating to Prob
lems to Be Solved.
New York, Dec. 3. Striking evi
dence of the preparedness of the
American government to enter into
peace negotiations was given here
tonight in an annoucement that 23
members of an advisory commission
of experts, who have made a year's
study of political and economic con
ditions in Europe and Asia, will sail
with President Wilson and his fel
low delegates on the George Wash
ington. With them will go several tons
of documents and maps, which, to
gether with other records of their
investigations already in Paris or
on the way, comprise a collection
of international data, said to be
without parallel in history.
Nebraskan Among Experts.
During its progress the announce
ment said every important na
tionality of Europe and western
Asia sent representatives here for
conference with the commission and
numerous secret documents, togeth
er with the texts of treaties signed
during the war, which never have
been published in full, were assem
bled. Among the specialists in the party
is W. L. Westermann, professor of
history at the University of Wis
consin, a specialist on Turkey.
Professor Westermann formerly
lived at Lincoln. Xeb. He is a
graduate of the University of Ne
braska of the class of 1894.
AT THE
THEATERS
ONE of the most pleasing en
tertainers at the Orpheum
this week is a minister.
Known as the singing parson, he is
Kev. hrank W. Gorman. One of the
quaint features of the bill is the
venerable grandmother glibly talk
ing up-to-date ?mg. The character
is humorously portrayed by Mrs.
Thomas Whiffen, who is celebrat
ing her golden anniversary on the
stage by a tour in vaudeville. A
Striking dramatic sketch is the vivid
glimpse of the battle front, as
shown in "Where Things Happen,"
a play forcefully presented by a
cast of seven people.
"A Cure for Curables" closes its
stay at the Boyd today with matinee
and evening performances. It has
been welcomed because of its bring
ing William Hodge in a most
agreeable character and surrounded
by a remarkably clever company of
actors.
America Must Furnish
Europe With Million
Horses in Five Years
Chicago, Dec. 3. The United
States must furnish 1,000,000 horses
for European Countries during the
next live years, in the opinion of an
officer of the British remount serv
ice at the International Live Stock
exposition here today.
The statement was based on the
belief that the allies will have to
maintain armies in Russia and Ger
many for some years to come, and
that these armies will need a great
number of horses. Belgium and
France, he said, are virtually
stripped of their stocks, and even
Engla'nd will not have a sufficient
number of horses for its increased
acreage. Consequently, he added,
the increased demand for horses
and how stock raisers can meet this
demand, is one of the most vital
questions before American live
stock men.
Delegates to the exposition de
clared today that climatic conditions
this year have played an important
part in meat production, with odds
greatly in favor of the "corn belt"
states. The drouth greatly affected
the west and south, they said.
Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Wisconsin.
Ohio, Minnesota and Nebraska
must redouble their efforts of the
past to increase food production.
Beef and pork are commodities
greatly in demand, and just how the
output can be increased to meet ex
port demands will be up for lengthy
discussion.
"Pave and Save" New
Motto for Douglas
County Motorists
Members of the Omaha Auto
club at the annual meeting at the
Fontenelle hotel Tuesday night
evinced great enthusiasm for the
proposed $3,000,000 Douglas county
bond issue for "vitrified" roads.
No dissenting voice was heard in
a discussion which lasted for 30
minutes. A slogan of "Pave and
Save" in Douglas county was
adopted.
P. A. Wells, W. B. Cheek, C. L.
Gould, George Brewer nd F. L.
Nesbitt were re-elected to the board
of directorship for three more years,
unanimously.
During the meeting E. G. Mc
Gilton, attorney for the Omaha
safety committee, advocated an
amendment to the state law apply
ing to the conviction of auto
thieves.
A five-acre park was offered the
club by .Arthur J. Love, on the con
dition that $10,000 should be spent
on it for improvements. The land
is said to be ideally located on the
Elkhorn river, and with its acquisi
tion the club will own four picnic
parks one in each direction.
Small Damage by Fire.
A fire damaging the roof of the
home of Mrs. F. S. Sherman. 1110
South Seventeenth street, to the ex
tent of about $100 occurred Tuesday
night. The blaze was caused by the
sparks from a defective flue.
Casualties Yet to Come
Are Slightly Wounded,
Says Secretary Baker
Washington. Dec. 3. Secretary
Baker, appearing before the senate
military committee today to ex
plain the delay in completing the
publication of American casualties,
overseas, said he thought most of
the unreported names were those
of men slightly wounded and
would come by mail.
Senators were unable to under
stand who only something over
100,000 names have been published,
when it has been officially an
nounced that the casualties num
'ber 262,693. The secretary said
every effort consistent with accur
acy was made to prevent delay
and General ' Pershing had been
urged repeatedly to expedite his
lists, sending the names of the
dead first.
"The department from the be
ginning," Mr. Baker said, "has
never held up or withheld or de
layed giving out casualty lists.
Our policy has been to give a com
plete statement as soon as possible."
Diplomatic self-confidence and
push is a trait that appeals to every
American and a play which has for
its central figure a young man who
thoroughly believes in himself and
carries this assurance o a proper
degree is hailed with delight. Such
a play is "A Tailor-Made Man,"
which will be offered at the Bran
deis theater for the last two times
today, matinee and evening.
The manner in which troops were
maneuvered iu the European battle
fields and the methods of trench
warfare are shown most admirably
and accurateely in "Hearts of the
World," the great film drama, which
returns to the Brandeis for its third
engagement, starting tomorrow. The
battle scenes are incidental to the
beautiful romance which Mr. Grif
fith has woven about his chief char
acters. .
The properties employed in "The
Bird of Paradise" this season, which
comes to the Boyd theater for three
nights commencing Thursday eve
ning December S, are 'native Ha
waiian handiwork, secured by Rich
ard Walton Tully, during his re
cent sojourn among the inhabitants
of Honolulu and the Glanders.
Everything, excepting the scenery
and the actors, is genuinely Ha
waiian, and even the Hawaiian sing
ers were brought from the islands.
' A well balanced program is of
fered at the Empress theater with
music as the outstanding feature.

The increased interest in the ex

motion picture industry is going to
wield a tremendous influence in the
exploitation of merchandise manu
factured in the United States after

Today America is in a commanding
position as regards moving pictures.
The percentage of pictures of Ameri
can manufacture seen in foreign
countries is easily seventy-five per
cent of all shown on the screen in
those embraced in the southern half
of this hemisphere and the other
continents. The educational value
of pictures will unconsciously mould
the minds of foreigners so much that
when our commercial agents arrive
on foreign shores they will meet
with a hearty welcome. These for
eign buyers will have become ac
quainted with our way of living, our
customs, and being familiarized
with our institutions through seeing
them on the screen they will not dis
