SIX MEN TO RECEIVE THE PEACE TERMS (Continued From Far One.) o was didared to be a physical impossibility. ! i !t may be recalled that the con vocation of the Portsmouth peace conference was somewhat delayed ;y s similar point regarding the competence of the credentials of the Russian delegates. Russian officials stated after President Roosevelt's invitation to the conference had beer accepted by the emperor that delegates were being sent merely to learn or what basis Japan was pre pared to enter into discussions and that a decision whether the negoti ations would be continued on such' a basis would be taken at St. Peters burg, and not by the Russian rep resentatives at Portsmouth. Japan immediately announced that she woflld not send representa tives except to meet with fully ac credited plenipotentiaries author ized to negotiate peace and after a second interview by the American ambassador, Georg Von L. Meyer, vith the Russian emperor, it was reluctantly declared that the repre sentatives would be plenipotentiar ies press representative, howev er, coined the epigram that a plen ipotentiary was a representative ful ly empowered to do as he was told. Under the circumstances, as Count Von Brockdorff-Rantzau, for eign minister, explained to the As sociated Press, the German govern ment considered it unnecessary to send the entire peace delegation more than 100 persons headed by six plenipotentiaries to Versailles merely to receive the draft and re turn to Berlin with it and would therefore send a smaller delegation ' 'if It Iff ' J IF Rpi1 muffins Ho-fit iisa tasty I can't wait to of muffips "BEST DY TEST" Its superior quality meets eyery baking need.

The German government then for mally inquired through the' armi stice commission regrdini, the pro gram, art d on the basis of the reply seemingly determined on the dis patc't of the smaller delegation. . Meanwhile, however, the plans and program of the cou.icM of four foi discussions with the Germans had been altered, in no small degree, spparetitly, on account of the fact that it was found a physical impos sibility since the instructions to ap pear on April 25 were sent to the G-:man delegates ' have the ac tual te.it of . the proposed treaty ready hy that date. This would ne cessitate communicating the deter minations of the allied and associ- tent i.i outline or in a less formal shape than the definite text. For this purpose the presence of the plenipotentiaries charged with the peace negotiations was imper ative, quite apart from the point of prestige that plenipotentiaries of the allied and associated powers could only meet with German representa tives of equal rank and dignity. Furthermore, it is planned to have such limited discussion of the peace proposals as President Wilson and his associates are prepared to ad mit, notably the modes of payment of the sums which have been exact ed as reparations and explanations on any points in the long compli cated drafts of the treaty provisos which the German . delegates may seek to begin with, without await ing the action of the government at Weimar. The text of the treaty and difficult points as they arise would in the meantime be commu nicated to Weimar. Sebastopol Port Not Taken. Paris, April 21.

TUESDAY, APRIL 22, 1919. THOUSANDS SEE VICTORY MARCH TO BOOST BONDS (Continued From Page One.) 1,500 returned soldiers, sailors and marines of this county, in charge of Lieut. Allan Titkey and staff. ' , At the head of this column four men held a service flag with 124 gold stars, representing the report ed dead heroes of Douglas county. Wounded Occupy Automobiles. The returned me.i who were un able to march on account of injuries or other disabilities were taken in automobiles driven by women of the war service league. ; One of these injured heroes was snugly ensconced between two pret ty Red . Cross nurses who were ready to extend first aid if needed. The welcome-home spirit o( the people was manifested by 'cheers along the way for the, returned boys who appeared in their uni forms, some bearing decorations, and all appearing as real heroes in the eyesof thousands of admiring spectators. , Escorted by Officers. This legion of returned soldiers, sailors and marines was escorted by officers and me., from Fort Crook and Fort Omaha. Many handkerchiefs fluttered from win dows as this legion marched along. The parade was full of pep from first to last. J he Chamber of Commerce fife drum corps, under the direction of Drum Major ' (Henry Lovell, made its first public appearance and was heartily, greeted. Veterans of the Grand Army ot the Republic appeared in automo biles and the younger veterans ol the Spanish war walked. City J commissioners walked. Cadets Have Band. High school cadets and their band added to the military spirit of the occasion. There were Red Cross workers, canteen workers, represen tatives of the National League for Women's Service, Y. W. C. A., Knights of Columbus, War Mothers of America, Jewish Women's Wel fare league, Joan of Arc club and other organizations. Victory Float Attracts. One of the distinctive features of he parade was an attractive float on which O. T. Eastman appeared as Uncle Sam, Miss Erna Reed was Victory, and Miss Louise Dinning as Red Cross. The theme of the float was that Uncle Sara brings victory; that victory was won by the army, the navy and the Red Cross. America with these five leaders i: a worshipper at the shrine of victory today. The army and navy are rep resented by characters in representa tive uniforms. The Jiggs float, urging enlist ments in the new army, also at tracted attention along the way. This float showed pictures of the famous cartoon character telling Maggie that he is off for the army, that he is going to get a ticket for ali points of the world and be a regular soldier. . ' Sunday at Auditorium. When the parade had passed ihe court house reviewing stand J. J. Boucher addressed a crowd in brief announcement of the meeting called for the City Auditorium where Billy Sunday gave a characteristic booster address for the local Victory loan drive. "Beat it over to the Auditorium," shouted the famous evangelist, a? he took hold of Governor McKolvie's arm and started for his automobile. War Mothers March. An appealing feature of the pa rade was a group of war mothers who walked alojg, some with trem bling step and others with more cer tain tread. Less than two years ago these mothers stood with -the admiring crowds on Farnam street and bid their sons godspeed as they went away to war. Their sons did not come back, but these patriotic mothers intend to do their bit to help "finish the job." Federal Officers Prepare for War on Dope Peddlers Federal authorities here1 are pre parinK to wage more active war on dope. With the arrest last night of Garland Graves, colored, 216 North 13th street, alleged dope peddler, United States District Attorney Pe terson announced that every viola tor of the Harrison drug act will be prosecuted to the fullest extent if there is nothing else ever accom plished in that department. Russell Eberstein, the only reve nue office detective commissioned to search for violators of the Har rison act, is soon to have two or possibly three more men to help him. v Okie Bailey, pretty Council Bluffs girl, was bound over to United States grand jury yesterday for trial on a charge of violating the Harri son drug act. Miss Bailey is 22 years old. She told a pitiful tale of her cravings for dope since the first trace of the habit in her appeared seven years ago. Hold Rodman Here for Chicago Police Theodore Rodman was arrested last night and held for Chicago au thorities in connection with beating John V. Lacey of Chicago out of $55 in a "confidence game." Wa hoo. Neb., authorities have been looking for. Rodman , for several weeks, alleging that he sold bogus potash stock to prominent Wahoo men. , -- Rodman said he lived at the Fon tenelle. He says he was born and reared in Germany and was gradu ated ' from Heidelberg university. His wife, he says, lives in Salt Lake City. - Workmen's Organization 1 Demand Freedom of Press Washington'-April 21. Revolt of workmen in Petrograd was reported today in advices to the State depart ment from "the Russian frontier." The workmen's organization in that city, the report said, adopted reso lutions last Frida.y 'Vsmanding the re-establishment of the constituent assembly, the frredom of the press and the right to private ownership of property. MUSI C Omaha Woman's Club Concert. The music department of the Omaha Woman's club brought its series of concerts by local artists to a brilliant close yesterday evening by presenting Henry Cox, violinist, and Mrs. Cox, pianist, assisted by the Omaha Woman's club chorus, Henry Cox, director. In spite of the threatening weather, the Y. W. C. A, auditorium was fairly well filled with an a'udience 'which gave fre quent expressions of enthusiasm. Mr. Cox's work as violinist was never better than oil this occasion while as director of a recently or ganized chorus and accompanist for the same, he evidenced most unusual versatility. His violin solos were in two groups, the first being a religious andantino by Martini and a -light and charmingly classical dance by the Belgian composer, Gretry, lead ing up to the adagio and -allegro from the 'concerto in G minor by Bruch. To this last he brought a depth and nobility of tone and bril liant technique which made it truly impressive. His later group - was striking in that the four composers all bear the title, of lieutenant, al though given, t-s Mr, Cox explained, for musical reasons rather than those of patriotism. There was an ultra-modern prelude by Lieutenant Spaulding, a humoreske by Lieu tenant Stoessel, a negro serenade by Lieutenant Macmillen, and a minuet by David Hochstein. who, Mr. Cox announced, was killed in the battle of Argonne. A most de lightful "modern classic," this min uet is. Two charming encores were added by Mr. Cox. ' Mrs. Cox, at the piano, followed the words of her gifted husband, giving splendid support and dis closing oiauo techniaue of a hich order. Assisting the Womais club chorus made its debut. Some fortv- odd voices strong, this organization has, in its one short season, attained a degree of skill upon which it is safe to base a hope for its per manency. The tone quality is pleas ing, the attacks good and an un usual variety of expression and sen timenJLis realized. It cannot be said that fnis is done "under the baton of" Mr. Cox, since he performs the unusual feat of simultaneously di recting and playing the piano part. Of the groups sang, "My Sweet Repose," by Schubert, and a unison arrangement of "The Worldly Hope," from Liza Lehmann's well known song cycle, were done in the best style and with most beautiful tone. Notable, also, was "The Dreamboat," by Nellie Shorthill Bradshaw, a recently acquired addi tion to the musical colony of Omaha. An encore was generously added after each chorus. Mr. Cox added much to the pleas ure of the evening by informal re marks on the music and composers. E. L. W. HARD ON DES? I "I marched through the mud of Flanders, through a large part of the Lorraine sectors, and lastly from Chateau Thierry to Fismes, and my shoes with Neolin Soles are still in good condition. For five months I alternated these shoes with two other pairs, which are now worn out, but the Neslin Soles look as if they had another five good months of wear left in them." Written by Lieut. Edgerly Austin,AmericanExpeditionary Forces, France October 17th. 1918. This is exceptional service, all army men will agree. Civilians rarely give their shoes usage such as this; but if they are hard on shoes, and want to cut their shoe bills down, let them try Neolin-soled shoes. These shoes are obtainable at most shoe stores in many good styles for men, women and children. Or have your old shoes re-bottomed with Neolin Soles.
