made the run and surrounded the
house, thinking that a notorious
crook, wanted for numerous bur
glaries committed recently, was in
the house.
No Liquor Found.
When the detectives made a run
on the house, they discovered a mis
take that their own fellow officefs
had broken into the place and were
ramsacking the place for whisky. No
liquor was found. . I r
On the "tip" that Gus Wick, for
mer Omaha saloon keeper, was
operating a bar in Kansas City from
where he "might be sending liquor
to his home here," police swore out
the warrant. ' '
In violation of , a- law that a
search warrant "should be read to
the party against whom it is sworn
out. Detectives Herdzina, Palmtag
and Armstrong, headed by Sergeant
Thestrup, broke into the Wick home.
Mrs. C. A. Cramer, 5310 Florence
bdulevard, saw the men kick in the
back door, she said.
"I thought at first burglars were
in the house, but I learned after
ward they were officers," Mrs.
Cramer said. 1
Lock on Door Broken.
' The lock on the back door is
broken, and a panel in the door is
split. . When newspaper men arrived
at the scene of the reported bur
glary, Detective Faimtag met them.
"The burglars just got away. Go
follow the detectives, they're going
after them," he told the reporters.
Whek the newspaper men sought
to investigate the matter, the de
tectives in the house told them, "to
beat it."
Neighborhood residents were sur
prised that the police used burglary
methods of breaking into the home,
even with search warrants in their
pockets. One neighbor expressed
the tactics as "legalized burglary."
Ransack Vonier's Room.
Coincident with the "burglary" and
ransacking of the house for liquor,
Chief of Detectives Dunn yesterday
moaning received a complaint that
the same ofticers of the morals
squad ransacked the room of Louis
Vonier, 626 South Seventeenth ave
nue, Thursday night. Two suit
cases full of Vonier's clothes were
turned upside down in a closet and
the contents spread over the floor.
The following morning Vonier
told- the chief of detectives: "At
least, if they search my room, I
want them to put the things back
again."
Officers of the morals squad were
made to apologize to Vonier. No
liquor was found in the place.

Head of Organization Reviews
Situation in Europe and
Explains Where Aid
Is Needed.
"The , services rendered humanity
by the Red Cross during the period
of the war must not stop with the
signing of the peace treaty," Dr.
Livingston Farrarid, head of the na
tional Red Cross organization, re-,
cently returned from the interna
tional headquarters at Geneva,
Switzerland, said yesterday after
noon before more than 500 heads
and delegates of Red Cross chapters
from Nebraska and western Iowa..
New and wider fields for service,
according to Dr. Farrand, have been
opened to the Red Cross by the ces
sation of hostilities. The destitute
in France, the starving in Russia
and Poland, the diseased in the Bal
kan countries and the poor and per
secuted in Armenia look to the Red
Cross for aid. he asserted.
To respond to the call of these
various peoples "the Red Cross
must not only not cease to function,
but it must redouble its efforts."
Drive to Be Started.
Funds for the alleviation of suf
fering in foreign countries and in
America will be raised in a drive to
be begun the latter part of October
and end November 11. The speaker
stated that it was probable that a
membership campaign would be
launched at the same time.
"We must change our methods to
suit the conditions of peace," the
doctor asserted.
T4ie condition of the women and
children in the stricken countries
was described as "horrible" and
were it not for the persistent work
and effort of the American Red
Cross the lot of these people would
be unbearable.
Junior Red Cross.
The World League of Red Cross
societies, according to Dr. Farrand,
is formulating plans for an effective
junior Red Cross. This junior or
ganization will interest itself espe
cially in aiding orphans.
Stating that the women of France
and other countries devastated by
the War were carrying the same
burdens now as during the war.
Miss Ina M. Taft, national director
of chapter production, asserted that
the Red Cross cannot now fail in
its mission.
Raw materials of all kinds are be
ing sent to France by the Red Cross
in huge quantities, Miss Taft stated,'
but the women of Europe, driven by
necessity to seek work to support'
themselves and their children, can
not devote time to turning the ma-1
tenals into garments.
Good Word for Y. M. C. A.
"A million garments a month,"
Miss Taft said, "are needed to sup
ply the wants of the' destitute peo
ples of Europe." She appealed to
the garnHwtt producers to continue
their wd(Jwith greater energy than
they haver shown heretofore.
Denials of the charges brought
against the "Y" were made by Dr.
Farrand. "The men succeeded won
derfully," he stated.
The future policy and work of the
Red Cross was explained. Edward
K. Hardy, manager of the central
division, presided and delivered the
opening address, welcoming the
delegates.
Questions pertaining to the work
and policy of the Red Cross were
asked by delegates and answered by
officials.
Wife Sues for Divorce and
Asks $10,000 Alimony
Gertrude Morris applied to the
district eourt today for a divorce
from her husband. William, and an
injunction to keep him from molest
ing her in their home at 6227 Flor
ence boulevard.
When they were married at Cen
tral City, Neb., in 1917, she says, he
had about $4,000, but since then has
accumulated $20,000. She charges
that he has struck and choked her
and pursued a Systematic course of
abuse. She asks $10,000 alimony.'

Rrotret Against Brick Yards

bers of the Castelar Ifnprbvement
club Thursday night that he did not
believe 'the city council would ap
prove the establishment of a brick
yard In their neighborhood.' The
meeting, which was held in Castelar
school, was chiefly an expression- of
protest against brick yards in this
community.
Aliens May Now Get
Passports Without
Any Questionnaires
Aliens of neutral and allied coun
tries may now secure passports to
their native lands without going
through the process of filling out
three sets of complicated question
naires, and waiting for a long time
while the papers are in Washington
for inspection.
O. B. Holton, immigration inspec
tor at the federal building, received
orders yesterday from Washington,
empowering his to determine by
oral examination whether or not a
passport should be granted.
- There has been much profiteering
by attorneys and notaries, who have
been charging foreigners fabulous
prices for assisting in filling out
questionnaires, according to Mr.
Holton.
Alien enemies will still be com
pelled to fill out three sets of pa-,
pers to secure passports. Assyrians,
citizens of Turkey are the only
alien enemies who nave ' had any
success in securing passports, ac
cording to Mr. Holton. These peo
ple have always been restive under
Turkish rule, and are naturally pro
ally, and this fact accounts for their
succees, Mr. Holton says. ,
There are two other immigration
inspectors, in Nebraska, one at Chad
ron and one at Kearney.
