CLUB Congressman-elect From Sec ond District Declares Great est Need Is Stabilization of Forces Behind Industry. "Greed and hate should not be itolerated in this country, nor allow ed to have an overpowering control." declared Congressman-elect A.' W. Jefferis, addressing the Jefferis Booster club at the Hotel Rome last night. 1 "Greed and hate have caused man's inhumanity to man, and have prompt ed one nation of people to attempt to subjjgate other peoples, 'until Europe became a world of armed camps fed on hate. That sort of doctrine should not be permitted to grow in this country." He bespoke a spirit of tolerance one toward the1 other, to the end that each may grow and give full expres sion to that which mature has en dowed him. Observe Golden Rule. "In a country such as we possess," he continued, "we must remember the great thought as enunciated by our Master, who told us to do unto others as we would have them do unto us. "We must have faith to believe that the' United States will continue for centuries to come to be the great Statute of Liberty, shedding its rays to peoples beyond our shores, that they may catch the spirit of brother ly love which gives unto each, the right to pursue life, liberty and hap piness. I believe that Eurojie will catch this great spirit." Mr. Jefferis said he was mindful of certain disturbing signs in this country, but he had full faith to believe that this nation can and will show to the world that men can govern themselves if given an op portunity. He urged the discourage-, ment of any attempt to array faction j against faction or class against class. - Need of Stabilization. " "America," he added, "must stab ilize the forces of labor, capital, in dustry' and energy, that we may stand united as one great people, not only for our own sake, but for sake of the world. We as individ ual citizens may do our part by keeping in mind the thought that our forefathers believed that men have the courage to rule themselves and can rule themselves. "The history of representative government does not meani that the majority should crush the minority, hut that legislation should be fair and for all of the people. A chosen representative of the people should exercise his reason and judgment to the end that each may live and let the other fellow live; to promote happiness in domestic, commercial and social life." Kinsler Toastmaster. MrAJefferis stated that. he appre ciated the responsibilities that rrst upon him by reason of his election as congressman for the Second dis trict of this state. One hundred members of the club sat with the new congressman at the dinner table, where J. C. Kinsler served as toastmaster. The demo cratic party was well represented by such members as Col. P. C. Heafey, Dr. T. R. Mullen and J. J. Mahoney. Ed D. Beach, chairman of the re publican state central committee, graced the occasion. President David L. Shanahan of the 'Jefferis Booster club sat at the speakers' table. Short talks were made by C. J. McCaffrey,- Thomas Lynch, A. I- Sutton and Rev. Mr. Smith of Sarpy county. John B. Shanahan sang several numbers. Judge Sutton condemned an effort being made at Lincoln to abolish the nonpartisan judiciary. Mr. Beach gave assurance that Sir.

Internatlon'l MOTHER TAKES BAFIDONED BABE FROM ORPHANAGE Love for Child Proves Too Strong and Young Woman Receives Infant Back Again. Mother love was too strong. It triumphed, and the helpless little babe that was dropped on the front porch of the home of District Court Reporter B. O. Bruington, 515 South Seventh street, Council Bluffs, Sun day night at midnight, has been claimed by its mother, and before noon yesterday was restored to her. She is now at the home of her father, a well known resident of the west side of Council Bluffs, and both she and the child will be cared for until the recalcitrant father of the child and husband of its mother, is brought to a realization of his duties.

They were married last August, and the child was born two weeks ago in an Omaha hospital. They have been living in Omaha and the child was brought to Council Bluffs Sunday night and abandoned. After a night of sleepless agony the young mother read in The Bee Monday morning the story of the abandonment and that the baby had been taken to the Christian Home orphanage in Council Bluffs. Early in' the forenoon she took a'car to the Bluffs, stopped at the home of her parents and told the story of the: abandonment of the babe and begged her father to go with her to. tht Christian home, at once. He con sented, and the distracted mother, in the ecstacy of joy, snatched; the babe from the nurse and pressed it to her bosom, weeping hysterically. . ' " Girl is Detained. The : Christian home people im mediately telephoned the Bluffs po lice and the officers went there and detained the mother and babe until the girl's father went up to the station, and told to Chief Jensen the whole story of the marital mis fortune.

' "I suppose the other ladies of the club, who attended the performance, felt as I did about the film. I ex pect that the educational depart ment of the club will report on the picture."

A carload of undesirables will leave Chicago in a few days for an Atlantic port to be shipped back to the countries whence they came. Immigration officials made this known tonight as 54 aliens hurried through Chicago Sunday enroute back to Europe under heavy guard were nearing New York. Fifty-four members of the Indus trial Workers of the World passed though Chicago in a special train under a heavv euard on the wav to an Atlantic port, weher, it is said, they will be deported at once by the immigration authorities. Forty of the prisoners came di rect from Seattle, where they took part in fomenting the general strike which has paralyzed the industries of that city for several days. Three leaders of the Seattle strike, one Spokane agitator, an I. W. W. leader from Denver, and five alien convicts arrested in Chicago, were among the prisoners gathered into the federal net. Alien Labor Agitators The majority of the men were alien labor agitators picked up by officers of the United States immi gration service during a year of secret campaigning in industrial centers of the Pacific coast. A. D, H. Jackson, chief of the Seattle of fice of the immigration service, was in charge of the party. "The proceeding against United States enemies of this type is simple," an official with the train said. "Just two hours before the Seattle strike was called we gath ered 40 agitators into the cars with everything cleared away between them and the middle of the Atlantic ocean. For more than a year the immigration service has been work ing quietly in all industrial centers checking up on the strange aliens' who have appeared, and gathered evidence against I. W. W. leaders and troublemakers who call them selves bolsheviki. Get Quick Action. "When evidence was compiled against this particular crowd, each case was brought to a federal hear ing, and all court findings sent to Washington, where they were re viewed by Secretary of Labor Wil son. The secretary has the power to order this type of prisoner de ported or released, and so far there has been little trouble in getting quick action." The majority of. the prisoners will be sent back to Russian provinces. They are principally Norwegians, Swedes and Finns, according to guards on the train. New York, Feb. 10. The federal immigration authorities here are prepared to handle the 54 Indus trial Workers of the World who are on their way to New York from the west to be deported by the govern ment. At Ellis Island, the immigration station, no information had been re ceived this morning, it was stated on authority, as to the hour the In dustrial Workers of the World -vere to arrive here, but it was expected to be "probably today or tomor row." Will Be No Delay. ' The prisoners will be detained at Ellis Island until arrangements for sailings can be made. They will be divided according to nationalities and the deportation of the several groups will be effected at the ear liest possible moment, it was de clared. . Greb Outpoints Erennan. Syracuse, N.

Washington, Feb. 10. Secretary Glass today asked congress to in crease the amount of Liberty bonds authorized but unissued to approxi mately $10,000,000,000 and to give him broad powers to determine the interest rate and other terms of the Victory Liberty loan to be floated late in April. He also sought per mission to issue not more than $10,000,000,000 of treasury notes, maturing within hve years and ask ed that the war finance corpora tion be authorized for one year after the declaration of peace to make commercial loans on exports to fa cilitate foreign trade. In a letter, to'Chairman Kitchin of the house ways, and means commit tee, Secretary Glass outlined the broad policies which the treasury hopes to follow in dealing with war loans and other national financial subjects of the readjustment period. Submits Bill. The secretary submitted a draft of a. bill which would carry out the treasury's recommendations. Specif ically, this bill would accomplish the following results: Raise from $5,000,000,000 to $10,- 000,000,000 the authorization for the Victory Liberty loan and permit the treasury to determine what part of this sum should be sold. Permit the secretary of the treas ury to determine interest on bonds maturing within 10 years, or the next Liberty loan, instead of limiting the rate to 4J4 per cent, as provided in the presen law. Permit the issue of not more than $10,000,000,000 of interest-bearing note-circulating notes, having ma turities from one to five years; these might be sold along with bonds of the Victory Liberty loan. Exempt War Savings. Authorize the issue of bonds and notes payable at a premium. Exempt war savings certificates from income surtaxes. Confer on the secretary of the treasury authority to determine the tajCexemption in respect to future issues of bonds and notes, and to enlarge tax exemptions of existing Liberty bonds in the hands of sub scribers for new bonds and notes. Reopen the privilege of convert ing 4 per cent Liberty bonds into 4;4s; this privilege expired last No vember 9. Create a 2J4 per cent cumulative sinking fund for retirement of the war debt!' Extend the authority of the war finance corporation to permit it to make loans in aid of American com merce, supplementing the aid given by the treasury on direct loans to allied governments and in a measure relieving the treasury of demands for such loans. Permit the continuation of loans to allies after the war. Except from income surtaxes and profits taxes all issues of Liberty bonds and bonds of the war finance corporation held abroad. Gives His Reasons. As the reason for asking such wide authority to determine terms of the Victory Liberty loan, Secretary Glass explained in his letter to Mr. Kitchin that he could not determine this far in advance, particularly be cause the country was in a state of commercial and industrial readjust ment, what the terms should be in April. Furthermore it is necessary for congress to act before adjourn ment March 4. "The Victory Liberty loan could not be issued successfully now that hostilities have ceased, within the limitations imposed by existing laws," said Mr. Glass. He "also declared that restoration of normal financial conditions in the United States would be facilitated by enactment of pending legislation permitting liquidation of claims arising under informal war contracts and enabling the food administration "to protect the guarantees given by the United States." DRESS WARM AI2D KEEPFEET DRY Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Take Salts and Get Rid of Uric Acid. Rheumatism is no respecter of age, sex, color or rank. If not the most dangerous of human afflic tions, it is one of the most painful. Those subject to rheumatism should eat less meat, dress as warmly as possible, avoid any undue exposure and, above all, drink lots of pure water. Rheumatism is caused by uric acid which is generated in the bow els and absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to fil ter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they be come weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually set tling in the joints and muscles caus ing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a table spoonful in a glass 6i water and drink before breakfast each morn ing for a week. This is said to elim inate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus rid ding the blood of these impurities. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes rfnd lemon juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent re- suits by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia water drink which overcomes uric acid and is beneficial to vour kid neys as well. Adv, 1 Dempsey Signs Contract for Bout With Jess Willard Hoboken. N.
