HUN DELEGATES
EMBITTERED BY
TERHSOF PEACE
Berlin Paper Says-Government
Will Refuse to Sign
Any ; Points Which Would
Oppress Germany.
Versailles, May 8. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The German dele
gates to the peace congress com
plained bitterly this morning to one
of the French liaison officers of the
unexpected harshness of the condi
tions of the peace.
The delegates said they had ex
pected from the newspaper reports
that the demands in many respects
would.be far-reaching, but were not
prepared for the terms as actually
laid down in the printed copy of
the document. , ,
All the exchanges between the
delegation at Versailles and the
home government are being kept
secret..
A German courier left at 9 o'clock
last night, bearing a copy of the
treaty with Count Von Brockdorff
Rantzau's first report on the nego
tiations. Refusal to Sign Forecast.
Berlin, May 8. The National Zei
tung today publishes what it terms
the official standpoint the govern
ment expects to take regarding the
peace terms.
The government, according to the
newspaper, will refuse to sign any
point of the treaty which provides
for "oppression of Germany." For
instance, the entente's standpoint re
garding Danzig and the Sarre valley
will not be accepted. The German
delegates, however, will make every
effort to institute negotiations on
these and other unacceptable de
mands, says the National Zeitung.
Wireless communication between
Nauen and the Eiffel tower in Paris
has been resumed so that the Ger
man peace delegation can keep in
close touch with Berlin.

Many Citizens Congratulate
'Mother' Johns on Her Stand
Expose of Treatment Which Calls for Indiscriminate
Use of Dope Among Girls of Detention Home
Rouses Wave of Comment. !
"Mother" Johns, matron at the
Douglas county jail, has received
hundreds of calls commending her
for the scathing rebuke she gave Dr.
Palmer Findley, medical director,
and Miss Alta Berger, superintend
ent, in Tuesday's Bee for their in
discriminate use of dope among the
girls of the Detention home.
"Mother" Johns,- venerable angel
of mercy, time tested and time hon
ored friend of ' the fallen girl, has
cured of the drug habit scores of
women released from the Detention
home, where they were given from regular tasks assigned them.
she was arrested again, and when
she did not pay the physician, she
was, told she had the syphilis.
Girl Held Four Weeks.
"I was sent to the Detention
home and held there for four
week," she said.
The girls now in the county jail
undergoing treatment as Detention
home dope fiends, without an ex
ception, declare that it was the prac
tice at the home to give them extra
shots of morphine for doing work
around the home in addition to the
four to six injections of morphine
a day for months at a time, which
reputable attorneys and physicians
have declared to be in flagrant viola
tion of the law.
Article Absolutely True.
"I have been answering the tele
phone night and day," she asserted.
"It was 1 o'clock yesterday morning
when I responded to the last call.
Even later the bell continued to ring,
but I had retired. Most of the calls
were irom persons seeking confirma
tion of the article printed in The
Bee. In reply to each inquiry I said
it was true absolutely. In many cases
I ' gave additional and stronger in
formation. "In my opinion, based on per
sonal contact and observation, it is
an impossibility to overstate the
horrible and revolting details. Any
one with a semblance of a spark of
human kindness in his nature cannot
view the condition of these poor
girls who come to us from the De
tention home without a feeling of
pity for the poor, helpless, outraged
victims.
Advocate Immediate Action.
"Every single person who speaks
to me on the subject expresses the
opinion that immediate steps should
be taken to end the nefarious prac
tice at that place. In my opinion it
helps breed instead of curing the
evil. And to think many good
church people have been fooled into
believing that such treatment of
these poor victims is the right thing
to do."
There were 12 girls in the De
tention home last Wednesday, and
of these nine were being given four
shots of morphine a day, according
to Lula Patterson, 1315 Davenport
street, who was released from the
home on that day and committed to
the county jail.
"I spent one week in the Deten
tion heme," she said, "and each day
I was given four shots with the
other girls. I heard two white girls
and one colored girl refuse to take
morphine.
"I know another girl named Nora
Coleman, who lives at Seventeenth
and Eurt streets. Before being
thrown into the Detention home she
had taken a cure for the dope habit.
To my certain knowledge she had
not taken a shot in seven months.
When she was released from the
Detention home the habit was
stronger with her than it ever had
beem Nora is using the needle to
day. She gradually is going down
the other side of the hill. Nora
Coleman is not the only girl I know
who holds the Detention home re
sponsible for her habit of using
dope.
Can Furnish Names.
"I do not like to take the liberty
of giving the names of'girls I know
to the newspapers, but I can furnish
names of other girls who never
knew what it was to use the needle
until they learned it in the Deten
tion home, and .who today are con
firmed drug addicts."
Pearl Price and Ruth Morrison,
both inmates of the county jail, and
former prisoners at the Detention
home, also declared they would be
willing to furnish names of girls who
had contracted the habit while at
the Detention home.
The Morrison girl told of an oc
casion when she was arrested with
Ethel Johnson, Emma Schweitzer
and Loraine Miller, and taken to the
police station. They were required
to give $5 each to the physician
who examined them and then per
mitted, without a hearing in court,
to continue the practice for which
they were arrested, she said.
Pearl Price also told of being
taken to the police station and of
being released by the examining
physician upon the payment of $5.
A short while afterwards, she said.

Ruth Morrison declared she heard
Wilma Rice, the woman Miss
Berger escorted to church to boost
the Detention home before a Sunday
morning congregation, boasting re
cently of how many shots she was
given "to key her up" for the oc
casion. Advocates of the home smiled
their approval, while Wilma Rice
stood before the Sabbath day wor
shipers and offered herself as a shin
ing example of the redemption
wrought by the institution in which
she then was an inmate. She pro
nounced herself cured of disease
and dope.
Was Later Released.
Wilma Rice was later released
from the Detention home.
"Wilma never did quit using the
dope," said Ruth Morrison. "I
know positively she got all of it
she wanted at the Detention home.
I know absolutely she is using it
today. She went into the Detention
home a dope fiend and came out a
worse fiend. Every one who knows
the girl knows she is an addict to
day; She was helped to her ruin in
the Detention home. She was bribed
with the poison which is sapping
away herxlife, to boost the Deten
tion home, the worst enemy she
had in the world."
Dr. Jennie Callfas. one of the
founders and defenders of the De
tention home, and secretary of the
Public Welfare board, was given
several days ago a letter written by
a physician, who is an official of
the Detention home, to Ruby Mar
tin, 1722 Cuming street, remind
ing the girl she was delinquent in
her monthly payments, in considera
tion of which it was stipulated she
was to be exempted from imprison
ment in the Detention home, in
spite of the fact the physician de
clared the girl had the syphilis, ac
cording to her statement.
Dr. Callfas declared she would
make an investigation and if any
crooked work was going on at the
institution, she would see that the
guilty ones were punished. Miss
Martin has ceased to make her pay
ments to the physician. She called
the physician on the telephone and
told him she would pay him no more
money and defied him when again
he threatened to have her arrested
and detained in the home.
Miss Martin is working every day
and has heard nothing further from
the physician who succeeded in mak
ing her pay a monthly sum of $20
for two months, and who backed
up when the girl called his bluff.
Strikers Clash With
Police at Big Toledo
Automobile Plant
Toledo, May 8. The plant of the
Willys-Overland company was
closed late this afternoon by Clar
ence A. Earl, vice president of, the
company, following a clash between
strikers and police in which bricks,
stones and clubs were used as
weapons.
The trouble resulted when several
hundred strikers attempted to talk
with employes who had refused to
join their ranks.
Nearly 100 policemen were rush
ed to the plant when a citizen re
ported a disturbance. All traffic po
licemen were taken from the streets
and ordered to report at the plant.
Labor officials claims 10,000 men
are on strike.
Vice President Earl gave out a
statement tonight that the plant will
be closed indefinitely to "protect
the lives of the workingmen."
General Haller's Army
Reinforced by Polish
Troops From France
Berne, May 8. Marshal Foch, a
dispatch from Warsaw says, has sent
the following message to General
HallerJ commander of the Polish
troops in France during the war:
"Tomorrow an army created un
der the protection of the French
flag will join on the liberated Polish
territory the Polish army that has
been for a long time fighting for
right, liberty and civilization. I am
convinced that the gallant soldiers
now united under the white eagle
flag will soon write in golden letters
a new page of the history of noble
Poland. My best wishes accompany
you."
General Haller, in an interview in
the Warsaw Courier, praised the
part played by the French govern
ment and the Polish national com
mittee in Paris in connection with
the formation of the Polish army in
France.

NOTHING GIVEN
UNITED STATES
BY PEACE PACT
There Are Many "Fingers in
Pie" for Victors, But
No American Fingers
Are Among Them.
By Universal Service.
Washington, May 8. The Paris
treaty will go down in history show
ing the nation whose entrance into
thewar, according to the enemy's
own admission, caused his defeatl
receiving not a single advantage,
pecuniarily, territorially or any oth
er way through the victory it helped
achieve. That nation is the United
States of America,
Practically every other belligerent
is shown by the peace treaty sum
mary as profiting by the defeat of
Germany. Some of them notably
France, England and Japan profit
largely. Their names .-re mentioned
a score or more of times each. But
the name, "United States of Amer
ica" is mentioned as such but six
times in the summary. This is how:
1. As one of the five principal
nations in the preamble of the
league of nations covenant.
2. As having a r .presentative on
the reparation commission, which
shall periodically estimate Ger
many's ability to pay her damages.
3. In connection with the Samo
an treaty of 1899 with Germany and
Great Britain.
4. When our nation is excepted
in the clause. dealing with the can
cellation of pre-war contracts.
5. When a like exception is
made regarding pre-war licenses.
6. As naming the prospective ar
biter in Germany's cession of cer
tain river craft.
There are many "fingers in the
pie" of a victorious peace, but they
numblr no American f.ngers among
them.

AT THE THEATERS
MUSIC
ILYA SCHKOLN1K, violinist;
Constance Alexandre, soprano,
and Imogene Peay, pianist, ap
peared in joint recital at the Y. W.
C. A. auditorium Wednesday even
ing, for the benefit of the Frances
Willard W. C. T. U. According to
a yearly custom, two programs are
given for this society by a group of
visiting musicians, and this was the
opening recital, this season. Ilya
Schkolnik, violinist, draws an excel
lent tone from his instrument. He
plays with an abundance of both
temperament and technique. His
harmonics are sure and lovely, and
those numbers demanding breadth
and fullness of tone were especially
well done. Constance Alexandre
has a big, brilliant voice, and was at
her best in the more brilliant num
bers of her different groups. The
"Cuckoo Clock," Grant-Schaeffer
and "An Open Secret" by Woodman
won especial favor from the audi
ence. Imogene Peay. pianist, dis
played both skill and understanding
in her piano solo, and in her ac-
ceptable accompaniments. The pro
gram was well arranged and well
contrasted, although Mr. Schkolnik
changed some of his selections with
out announcement. A large audi
ence was present, which heartily re
soonded to the various numbers
with generous applause. The sec-
ond program will be1 presented at
the same place under the same
auspices tomorrow evening.

MISS BARRYMORE'S visits to
this section of the world are
so few she is almost a stran
ger amongst those who might learn
in time to love her; the press agent
talks glibly of "the Barrymore fol
lowing"" in Omaha; it is non-existent,
but it might easily be mobilized
and made a really effective division
of local importance, were she to look
in on us at least once a season. So
long as she shows up only at inter
vals so widely spaced as the gap
which stretches between the last
time she was here and now, it is
hardly fair either to her or to the
people who really love a good com
edy well presented to ascribe the
presence of so many at the Brandeis
last evening to the fact that they are
of that peculiar cult to which the P
A. person alludes.
Nothing in this is said in deroga
tion of Miss Barrymore; she might
be welcomed here for her charming
personality, were she more intimate
ly known; as it happens to be, she
is welcomed because she is Ethel
Barrymore, actress of ability and
charm, whose growth from willowy
days of ingenue roles to the present
position she deservedly holds as a
leader of the gild might be traced
by the appearances she has made
in this city. And for her art alone,
then, she secures the plaudits of the
polite and' discriminating, who really
know a good thing and enjoy it.
That ought to appeal to her profes
sional sense, at least.
In the present Carton production
she has a role that exacts not a
great deal from her. She gets full
opportunity to exhibit her poise, her
sense of value and her appreciation
of delicate comedy points. In this
latter she excels. This is traditional
with her, and nothing of the Drew
capacity for fine irony is lost
through mixing it with a modicum
of the Barrymore penchant for the
broader and more obvious humor.
while the reserve of the one is neat
ly matched by the vivacity of the
other, and the combination shows to
wonderful advantage in the role of
Lady Cardonnell. It is a fit picture
to put alongside the one she gave
us a few seasons ago, when she por
trayed Barrie's pretty conceit in
"Alice-Sit-by-the-Fire."'
Carton has taken some characters
Dickens and Thackeray paraded and
humanized them; the reckless young
lord and the ancient, toothless old
grafter; the orderly-minded lawyer
and the priggish baronet, whose
Pharisaical outlook on life gives a
splendid excuse for the mild follies
into which the others plunged, such
as elopement, divorce, philandering
and the like. As these are all blown
away finally in a gust of real de
cent, honorable behavior, they may
be overlooked as dangers escaped,'
Mr. Boyd plays the young lord with
excellent taste, and Mr. Emery gives
a welcome characterization of the
aged jackal, while Messrs. Plimmer,
Ashford, Brennan and Percyval de
serve thanks for their contributions
to the pleasure of the evening.
It would be unfair to pass Miss
Le Gallienne without noting that
she possesses the, attributes that
make for success on the stage, not
alone youth and beauty, charm of
manner and grace of person, but the
intelligence that enables her to
grasp the meaning of her phrases
and accurately to impart it. Her
work suggests a future of greater
things.
The piece is staged in the Froh
man fashion, and ws greatly en
joyed by the audience last night.
The engagement is for the week
end, with a matinee on Saturday.
The Rubini recital at the Or
pheum this afternoon immediately
following the regular vaudeville bill
is going to be attended by the larg
est matinee audience of the current
week. The demand for seats has
been large and music lovers are go
ing to turn out to hear the distin
guished and accomplished young
Swedish violin virtuoso. All who
attend the matinee this afternoon
are cordially invited to remain for
the Rubini recital, which will start
at 4:35 o'clock. The opportunity
to hear this noted violinist in a pro
gram more extensive than is possi
ble in a regular vaudeville bill is
in response to the numerous re
quests received from Omaha music
lovers. An excellent program of
10 numbers has been arranged for
the occasion.
Martin Johnson and his plucky
little wife, who will show their pic
