GOV. M'KELVIE
ATTACKS ETHICS
; OF BRANCH
Says Criticism Contributed
Much to His Success in Elec

Bjr a Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln, April 13-Governor Mc
Kelvie Saturday gave out a copy of
a letter which he has sent to H, E.
Newbranch of, Omaha, editor of the
World-Herald, regarding an edi
torial which appeared in that paper
recently, entitled "Nebraska Bolshe
vism. 1
The letter is as follows:
I rarely find (time weighing no lightly
npon my hands that I teetlhat I can
afford to waste It reading the effusions
from jour facile pen. Yesterday, how
ever, someone brought to my attention
your editorial entitled ' "Nebraska Bolshe
vism' and while I must admit I have
not taken the time to read all of It. the
temper of It seems to he very much op-.
posea to- recognize the rights of Nebraska
farmers in extending their agencies of dis
tribution to the places which are in effect,
public markets. 1 am not surprised that
you have taken that position, no do I
think the screams of horror which you
vmlt upon this occasion will penetrate far
Into the ears of those who believe In a
wise solution of the farmers' economic
problems. Indeed, It was not upon this
tiolnt that I am prompted towrlte you,
for I realize that any arguments -which
slight be educed In this matter would be
like "wasting sweetness upon the desert
air" when expended on you.
( Editorial Ethics.
My Veal motive In writing you was to
prompt you for Just a moment In the mat.
tor of editorial ethics, and Inasmuch as
we are of the same fraternity In a pro
fessional sense, I think I may be per.
mltted to offer a suggestion along this
line. , I
You make frequent quotations qrom the
editorial page of the Nebraska Farmer,
and I want to thank you for It. I want
to suggest, however, that In making such
flotations, you give credit where 1( be
longs, nsmely, to the editor who signs the
paffe, and In this connection I want to
call yoyr attention to the fact that the
columns of ths Nebraska Farmer recog
nise me rignis or me reaaers 01 mi pud
llcatloa by establishing a definite author
ship la connection with each article pub
lished therein. , .
Credit Where Due.
The reason I call attention to this fact
at this time Is that in your references to
the editorial page of the Nebraska Farm
er, you persistently attempt to convey the
Impression to your readers that I ain
Still writing the editorial page for that
tiubllcation. This Is not fair to your read

writes that page, signs his name to It and
receives a modicum of reward for his
efforts. Just as I want credit for doing
fie work In connection with the position
vhlch I now occupy for the state, I de
If re that the editor of the Nebraska Farm
er receive credit for his efforts.
I preface my references to this sub
ject by saying that this Is a matter of
ethics, and I refer to that fact again witlr
thefurther explanation (hat It is ethical
among ones engaged In the same business,
at least to refuse to take no unfair ad
vantage of each other. Furthermore In
the publishing business, truthfulness Is
recognised as fundamentally ethical, and
when I use this word truthfulness, I do
hot refer to the camoflaged article, but the
plain, old-fashioned king which people
recognise on sight, In fact, the kind that
Is used without evasion or which requires
such explanation as none other than your
able self might evolve.
Enjoys Criticism.
I want to add further that I enjoy your
crltlclsjn of myself. You know Josh Blll
l.igs says that "every dog should have a
certain amount of fleas to keep him from
forgetting that he Is a dog." and I take
It that every man in public life needs a
certain amount of knockers hanging on
his trail to keep him from forgetting that

ADJOURNMENT
WILL DEPEND ON
CODE MEASURE
But Two Bills Now Await Ac
tion of Lower House; Hope
to Finish Up by Wed- -nesday.
By a-Staff Correspondent.
Lincoln. April 13. When the
house knocked off work Saturday
afternoon there were only two meas
ures left on the general file await
ing action by the lower branch of
the legislature.
These were the measures spon
sored by the Nebraska state Board
of Agriculture, aimed particularly to
enlarge the activities of the board
and to protect it from any intrusion
of the Department of Agriculture
contemplated in the civil administra
tive code. It is not anticipated that
the house will 'take any action on
the bills, preferring to let them die
in this manner. The board has al
ready been given assurance that
there is no intention to remove the
actual management of the fair from
its direction.
Language Bill Advanced.
The senate bill introduced by
Senators Reed and Johnson, pro
hibiting the use of foreign language
at public meetings, particularly
aimed to deal with political gather
ings, was sent to third reading in the
lower branch after a rather brisk
debate. The house sentiment was
overwhelmingly in favor of the bill.
Representative Mears of Wayne and
Representative Behrens of Cuming
spoke in opposition to'the bill, but
it had a dozen champions in the
house who vigorously pushed the
fight.
Speaking in favor of the bill, Rep
resentative Byrum declared that he
was informed on reliable authority
that recently meetings had been held
at which sentiments detrimental to
America had been expressed. He
said the measure was simply another
needed step towards Americaniza
tio'n. v
Time" to Quit.
Mr. Mears said that the legisla
ture had performed its full duty in
this direction and it was now time
to knock off. The house will pass
the measure tomorrow and the sen
ate having already passed it, will
concur in the house amendments,
which strengthen the provisions of
the bill.
The county attorneys of Nebraska,
with the exception of Douglas and
Lancaster counties, Will get a raise
in salary, the lower house agreed.
It advanced the bill carrying the sal
ary raise to third reading.
With everything out of the way
practically, house leaders are looking
forward to adjournment Wednesday.
Senate leaders also state that the
upper branch is ready to quit. It
will all depend on how long it will
take the conferees to whip the code
measure, which has already passed
both branches, into shape.

THE BEE: OMAHA,
Bishop of Latter Day
Saints Attacks Motion
of President Smith
V
Special to The Bee.
Lamoni. Ia., April 13. The first
speaker Saturday afternoon at the
conference of . the reorganized
churches of Latter Day Saints in
session here was Benjamin R. Mc
Guire, present bishop of the church.
He took bis stand against the mo
tion to endorse President Smith's
inspection of the church law con
cerning? quorum authority. The
bishop hinged his opposition upon
the statement by the president tht
the quorum of 12 was subordinate
to and under the direction of the
first presidency in all respects, ex
cept in legislative pawer. Church
law. grants concurrent power in
judicial matters to the three leading
quorums, vice presidency, quorum of
12 and quorum of 70, when these
quorums render unanimous de
cisions. .. - ' 1
Thomas W. Williams of Los An
geles, Cal., followed the bishop in a
spirited defense of President Smith's
policies. "We stand for dem
cracy," he- said. The consent
of the governed is a basic principle
in this church. The presidency of
the churchy has distinctive adminis
trative and executive powers which
belong to no other body jn the
church.- In the missionary depart
ment of "the church the quorum of
12 is subject to the discretion of the
presidency and under the presidency
has charge of proselyting in all the
world." ,
The church, where organized, is
under the general supervision of the
presidency and direct charge of the
standing ministry, the high priest,
eldest priest, teachers and deacons.

afternoon, completed the member
ship of the board which has been en
tirely reconstructed by the governor.
Nothing but praise has been heard
of the governor's, two selections for
places on the board. Dr. B. F. Will
iams, who will succeed Henry Ger
deswas connected with the Lincoln
asylum and served as superintendent
for a number of years. He is re-garded-as

there is no question but that favor
able action will be taken upon both
selections.

League Constitution
StiH Unsatisfactory
; to Sen. Poindexter
Spokane, Wash., April 13. The
proposed constitution of the league
of nations, as amended, still is a
"suprenle sacrifice" as far as the
United States is concerned, United
States Senator Poindexter said here
tonight in a statement objecting to

"If the provision for a unani

ty's statement said, "requiring their
agreement on any aciiun, oi cuurac,
the league is meaningless and pow
erlesvas the agreement makes ac

Reform Bill Puts
End to Plural Voting
- System in Belgium
Brussels, April 13. The limited
vote given to women by the passage
by the Belgian chamber of deputies
of the electoral reform bill was a
concession to the Catholics, who
wanted tke- vote for all women.
Those wlio suffered imprisonment
for political reasons at the hands of
the Germans during the occupation
also are given the vote.
The, reform bill puts an end to
plural voting, which for 26 years
has given a Catholic majority in
both- houses.
Before the sitting of the chamber
the socialist group had issued a
warning that it would not be a
party to any new ministry should
the present ministry ,of national
union fall on rthe question of elec
toral reform.
Parisians Uneasy Over
Prospect, of Strike May 1
Paris, April 13. The approach of
May 1 is arousing uneasiness as re
gards the manner in which that day,
long notable in European labor an
nals, will be celebrated here. Some
Parisians who are leaving the city
for the Easter holiday intend to
prolong their stay until after the
first of the month.
At present the only thing known
as to the probable scope of the pro
gram is that the labor unions and
the general labor federation are
planning a demonstration which
may take the form of a general
strike of all labor for, 24 hours or
a limited strike of the same strength
which would leave the public serv
ices in operation.

tendered his resignation to the con
gregation at yesterday's morning
service, to be effective on August 31.
In this connection there is a pros
pective consolidation of Parkvale
and Westminster Presbyterian
churches. "
In his resignation Dr. Young re
ferred to the recent resignation of
Rev. R. W. Taylor of Parkvale
church, and he expressed the belief
that the real solution of the situa
tion rested in the consolidation of
these churches. He believed that
his resignation would result in ex
pediting the consolidation project
which was brought up several years
ago when each church considered
building propositions. ,
Before the war' situation affected
the building situation, these con
gregations discussed new churches
and the matter was brought .before
the Omaha Presbytery on the basis
that one church would best serve
the interests of all concerned. The
Presbytery at that 'time held that
each church might build a new
edifice. (
Subject Renewed. ,
The consolidation proposition has
been renewed by leading members
of both churches and it is believed
that it will be gonsummated. West
minster church at Twenty-ninth and
Mason streets is a landmark4 of lo
cal Presbyterianism. In its heyday
it was a tower of religious strength.
Development of the city has affected
its membership in recent years. This
church owns a site at Thirty-second
and Pacific streets, where the con
gregation intended to build a new
church.
The Parkvale church is, compara
tively a new church organization in
the district southwest of Hanscom
park.
The present combined member
ship of the two churches is about
500. -
Dr. Young has been pastor of
Westminster church for six years.
