THE BEE: OMAHA'. FRIDAY, MAY 30. 1919.
BOYS RETURN IN
NEW OUTFITS FOR
OMAHA WELCOME
Shoes, Breeches, Tunics, In
Fact, Everything the Ne
- braska Soldiers Wear Is
Brand New.
(Br rnlnn Pacific Frets Bureau.)
When the Nebraska men of the
89th division got home they were
all togged out in completely new
outfits. Shoes, breeches, tunics and,
in fact, everything was issued to
them while in the debarkation
camps. Teh old, war-worn hob
nailed boots, the torn or dirty uni
forms which tvere companions of
hard dayi in the Argonne and in
Germany was turned in for cleaning
and repair.
In issuing the new clothing,
enough equipment of assorted sires
for the entire organization is sent
tip to one point, usually headquar
ters, each unit sending over a sup
ply squad- to pick out what they
need.
It -is a great scramble in some
places. Some companies need all
large sizes, others have to carefully
select the outfits for their different
men. Some of them need big shoes
and other units demand small ones.
Each one is on its toes, as it were,
to get the best for their men in
order to make a good showing on
the great day when they get home.
There is a great picking and choos
ing. when word comes to carry away
the' new duds, and woe to the unit
whose squad is late and gets only
the leavings. It is likely to send
home all of its perfect 36s in size
4fj uniforms or give them 104 shoes
to squeeze 14 size feet into.
A captain rushed into his com
pany billet, wild-eyed and out of
breath. "Turn out a squad on the
run," he panted. "The clothing is
sue is at headquarters and they've
notified most of the other com
panies first. Get down there quick
if you fellows ddn't want to go
homa looking like scarecrows."
The supply Squad took it literally
"on the run" and arrived at head
quarters in phalanx formation. The
ensuing scene resembled nothing so
much as a first-class trerrch raid,
but they Jot what they went after,
retiring victorious with the proper
sized clothes as their "loot."
Huns Claim SJaar Detached .
' On Account of Coal Fields
Paris, Wednesday,
Ma
iy 28. In
territorial
the section treating on
questions the German counter pro
posals to the terms presented by
the allies say, according to a synop
sis reaching Paris by the way of
Basel that "the territory of the Saar
inhabitated by 600,000 persons, is to
be detached from the German em
pire solely because of claims upon
its coal."
,, It is pointed out that during IS
years the territory is to be subject
to the control of a commission "in
the nomination of which the pop
ulation has no choice."
Regarding Schleswig-Holstein, the
German reply remarks that the
frontier which will be voted upon
under the stipulations of the treaty
"goes much further even than the
Danish government desires."

Germans Continue to Seek
Reduction of Indemnities
Berlin, May 29. (By the "Asso.J
ciated Press). According to a semi
official statement the full indemnity
which Germany offers to pay in her
county proposals to the peace terms
will include sums going to Belgium
against advances by the allies and
also the value of all military and
civil property surrendered by Ger
many since the armistice.
It is further conditioned upon ter
ritorial arrangements. That is, if
the imperial territory is reduced, the
sum to be paid must be correspond
ingly distributed, Alsace-Lorraine
and Posen, for instance, bearing
thefr proportionate shares.

The Golden West to the
Golden Star
, (Memorial Day, 1919.)
Oh ! Hearts of Oak that sailed out from the West
With colors flying, to save the oppressed ;
In Nation's service you were laid to rest,
Not dead, but sleeping, America's best!
Today, so sanctified, you rise again,
Death never comes to such brave men ;
We meet you, greet you, near and far,
We of the Golden West Ye of the Golden
Star!

RESCUE OF HAWKER
AND GRIEVES MADE
WITH DIFFICULTY
Airmen Greatly Exhausted
When Picked Up; Waves
Made Task Hard.
Horsens, Denmark, May 29. (By
the Associated Press). The Danish
steamer Mary, which rescued Harry
G. Hawker "and Lieuetnant Com
mander Grieves, in mid-Atlantic on
May 19, when they were compelled
to descend during their attempt to
fly from Newfoundland to Ireland,
arrived here early today. Capt.
Duhn and his mates told of the res
cue of the aviators.
Second Mate Hoey had the watch
with Seaman Schwartz at the helm
when at 6 o'clock on the morning of
Monday, May 19, they sighted the
airplane, which came down into the
seas ofrthe )OW tne sn'P" Hoey
and Schwartz immediately prepared
to launch a boat and with First Mate
Schubert, Seaman Fred Jensen and
Christian Larsen, the ship's carpen
ter, they set out for the airplane.!
The crew of the Mary had consid
erable difficulty in launching a boat
and Capt. Duhn said he . doubted
whether it would have been possible
to do so had the airplane appeared
an hour later than it did.
Airman Greatly Exhausted.
Hawker and Grives were greatly
exhausted after the rescue, the cap
tain said, so much so that they de
clined profferred food in order to
obtain needed sleep. Capt. Duhn
declared that the aviators naturally
were upset because the Mary had
no wireless and they were unable to
inform their relatives that they were
safe. The captain said that Hawker
also was somewhat disappointed be
cause he was unable to salvage the 1
initely the reason why he had failed.
"When I came on the bridge,"
Captain Duhn said, "the machine
had already alighted on the water.
The airmen told us that before com-
ng down they had dropped rockets,
but we did not see them. The work
of saving the airmen was pretty dif
ficult, because it was blowing very
hard. Hawker and Grieves were 1 'in
water up to their waists, but their
watertight suits kept them dry."
Rescue piffkult.
Asked whether the crew of the
lifeboat was in serious danger in ef
fecting the rescue, the captain re
plied: . "I will not say serious danger,
but, as I said, it was a rather diffi
cult hour before they succeeded in
reaching the airmen.
"All the airmen wanted to do was
to sleep. They told us that frorn
the very styt they realized every
thing was not quite in order, but
that they had comforted themselves
with the hope fhat later they would
get the fight effects from their mo
tor. Te defect, however, became
more and more apparent and the
speed of the motor steadily lessened.
"They were very pleasant fellows
and we were the best of friends with
them. When they had had their
sleep put and got a good meal with
a gli?s of 'schnappj' they were all
right." v

BIGGEST THRILL
WILL BE WELCOME
DOUGHBOYS SAY
i Boys Refuse to Talk War;
I They Only Want to Know
'n Ev'rything.
(By fnlon Faelfle Preu Bureau.)
"What was your greatest thrill?"
was the question asked an Omaha
doughboy of the 89th division by a
will latentionea interviewer.
"I haven't had :t yet," was the -e-
I-lv. "That's coming when I Hep
off of the train at home and set my
mother waiting lu: me on the ;lai
term." It is a case of the interviewer get
ting interviewed when an attempt is
made to question the young veter
ans regarding their experience in
France. Such a question as "VVhat
was your most narrow escape?" is
very likely to be answerod by
"What's doing in Omaha?"
If you ask them how many
bodies they killed they'll reply by
quizzing you about the movie shows
in Lincoln. If you want to find out
about the battle of the Argonne, vou
will more than likely have to tell all
about affairs in Fremont first.
In short, France is behind these
boys of the 89th. Home is ahead.
The men who have lived war, and
thought war for months on end are
"fed up" on it. The longest period
of the war, say the boys, is the short
time between debarking from over
Our Nation
Memorial DAY! Day of sacred recollection! Today made
more solemn by recent sacrifice.
Today we consecrate the graves of not alone the heroes of
an older day, but of much of the flower of our youth of the
present generation.
In other days we mourned for those who battled that a
free nation might be preserved; today we lament for those who
gave their all that the whole world might be liberated.
As we kept our faith with the elders, so shall we keep faith
with the young. W6 shall shape the destiny of this nation so 1
the fruit of their great sacrifice shall ripen for us, and for the
generations that come after.
