THE BEE: OMAHA, MONDAY, JUNE 16, 1919. GERMANS CLAIM ALLIED TERMS ARE TOO HARD Say Pledge to Peace of Jus tice Forsaken and Peace . of Might Demanded in its Stead. . (Continued From Face On.) inn that the right of self-determina tion has been wilfully violated throughout. Germany hitterlv assailstthe aboli tion of all German rights outside of Europe as irreconcilable with the preliminary negotiations, and as wholly impossible to a great people, who not only have Supreme needs tor markets and supplies, but who have shown themselves capable of sharing the world's task of coloniza tion. Germany is wholly unable to ac cept the reparations commission set up by the allies as involving an in fringement of her sovereignty, but proposes a co-operative Oerman commission to work alongside it, She accepts responsibility only for civilian losses in occupied Belgium and France and agrees to maximum payments of 100,000,000,000 marks provided the other terms as to eon- onies, overseas trade and territories are accepted as she proposes. As to deliveries of ships, raw ma terials and machinery, Germany can 'meet the allied claims .only in pait, largely because of decreased pro duction. '. Raps One-Sided Treatment. Germany demands that in eco nomic provisions she be treated W a basis of equality and reciprocity and not in the one-sided way out lined. She agrees to freedom of traffic on German rivers and with in fi,rmanv hut awavs nn rnnni. tion that there be no interference with the German sovereignty., Simi larly with the renewal of treaties . lapsed through the war, she expects reciprocal treatment, rather than the assumption by the allies of the right to say what engagements are or are not to become operative again. 1 The Germans refuse to accept the trial of the former German emperor, or to sanction his extradition from Holland, on the ground that no Ger man subject' can be brought before a foreign court without an estab lished law or legal basis. Similarly, she cannot agree to extradite other subjects accused of violations of the laws and customs of war. Instead, Germany proposes an in ternational court ot neutrals to Judge the fact of crime, the punish ment to remain with the national courts. . Labor Clause Unsatisfactory. The labor clauses are not satis factory to Germany and as a result she again proposes an international conference to examine the allied and associated proposals, the German proposals and the Berne resolutions. bitter protest is entered against the occupation of the Rhine prov inces and the demand made that all allied roops be withdrawn within six months of peace. The occupa tion n nrnnnspH it is mntinHH would break up German economic life and allow the , prejudicing of German interests in favor of France and Belgium. The summary makes no attempt to criticise any statements of facts or figure s made in the reply, inas much as the German delegation alone is responsible for them. It is stated that many of them, especially as to the eastern frontier, are dis putable, if not absolutely incorrect. Under the heading, "The legal basis of peace," the German delega tion recapitulates the interchange of communications with President Wil son between October 5, 1918, and the armistice, November 11. As a re sult of, these, they consider that Ger many as a basis of peace has ex pressly accepted President Wilson's 14 points and nothing else. Accept ance of the terms of the armistice, it is declared, wa"s to be evidence of the honest acceptance of these con ditions by Germany. Asserts Right to Discussion. It is contended that the allies also accepted President Wilson's 14 points and that, therefore, a solemn agreement as to the basis of peace exists between the two contracting parties. The practical application of these principles must be negotiated upon and Germany asserts her right to a discussion. Chapter two deals with the al- BRAVE AMERICANS Portraits of Medal Winner, Mad at the Front by JOSEPH CUMMINGS CHASE. Official Portrait Painter of th A. E. F. ii life y " y Corporal Sidney E. Manning, 167th Infantry. Corporal Manning has nine wounds and eight pieces of metal still in his body, but that couldn't keep him from marching into Germany with his "unit. In action on the morning of July 27, Corporal Manning was in charge of an automobile rifle squad. One general was killed and one carrier and himself wounded by shell fire. Although wounded, he carried the automatic rifle and ammunition, and continued to advance. On reach ing the top of the hill near Croix-Rouge Farm, northeast of Chateau Thierry, he was again wounded by machine gun fire, but he still advanced with his platoon. Reaching the bottom of the hill the survivors of his platoon now seven men in all lie was forced to consolidate with another platoon of G company, covering on his right flank. Corporal Manning at the bottom of the hill alone faced the oncoming Germans, covering this consolidation and keeping the enemy from closfng in on his platoon. He then rejoined his platoon with nine wounds. He now wears the Dis tinguished Service Cross. (Copyright, lViy.) , NO ROOM IN U. S. FOR BOLSHEVIST SAYS IOWA MAN Should Live and Let Live, Past Grand Exaulted Ruler Tells Elks at Flag Day ' Address. leged contradiction between the draft of the treaty and the agreed basis of peace. Various allied states men, are cited as having declared that the war was not against the German people, but against an im perialistic and irresponsible govern ment. It is urged in the reply that the allied powers are dealing now with the German people ruling its own future for itself a fact which has been utterly disregarded in the draft of the treaty. Argument is presented against the Separation of purely German terri tory from the empire and against the isolation of East Prussia and making Danzig a free city. As to the league of nations, Ger many, the reply says, has repeatedly been promised that the league of nations would unite the belligerents, conquerors as well as conquered, to secure the world against further disasters. But the status of the league has been established with out German help, and Germany is not even invited to join the league Howl About Alsace-Lorraine. The right of self-determination ot nations has been proclaimed, says the reply, by President Wilson, Mi. Asquith, Mrv Churchill, harl Grey, Signor Orlando and Premier Lloyd George, but the treatment of the in habitants of the Sarre region and ci the district of Eupcn, Malmedy and Moresnet does not comply witn such a solemn recognition of this right. The same, it is added with regard to Alsace-Lorraine, the cession of which, without consult ing the population, would be a new wrong. The third chapter deals with pos sible results of the treaty as drafted. The Germans claim it involves th utter destruction of German econo mic life. Germany's creditors could not obtain the immense sums re quired from a pauperized country. Tht elimination of Germany from the world, already impoverished by the war, would become infinitely poorer. The world now requires an inter national community of labor, it is What MAY Children Drink? This is a real prob lem where parents use tea or coffee, which they are well aware the children should not drink. INSTANT POSTUM solves the problem This delicious cereal drink is free from caffeine, and con tains nothing but healthful goodness. Let the children drink POSTUM-ell they want. "There's a Reason n argued, to which, Germany agrees. But the proposed treaty is merely a celebration of the last triumph of imperialist and capitalist tenden cies. The delegates appeal to the innate right of men and nations. The proposed treaty is character ised as incompatiable with respect for this innate right. In the resolve, however, to fulfill her obligation!; Gsimany makes certain countri proposals. Want Equality In Trade. Calling attention to the fact that Germany already. has submitted her own proposals for a league of na tions, the German delegates agree to negotiate on the basis of the allied proposals if Germany is admitted on equal terms as soon as peace has been signed. This is on condition that clauses are inserted guarantee ing complete equality in trade condi tions, freedom from external inter ference and the prevention of eco nomic warfare and exclusion'by boy cott. Germany agrees to the basic idea regarding army, navy and air regu lations, and especially the abolition of compulsory military service, if this is the beginning of a general reduction of armaments and aban donment of compulsory .military service.- A period ot transition mu.,t be allowed during which Germany may retain such forces as are re quired to preserve internal order be fore reducing her army to the 100, 000 limit. On condition that Ger many joins the league at once, she agrees to dismantle the fortresses in the west and establish a neutraf zone. But no special supervision of the profess of disarmament, except that of the league, can be admitted, and an extension of time must be granted after discussion on the basis of equality. Oral Negotiations Proposed. Oral negotiations to settle details with respect to the surrender of warships and aviation measures are proposed. Much space is devoted to terri torial questions, all the disputed ter ritories being taken up. Particular attention is paid to the Sarre dis tricts, with its important coal mines. The population of this district, it is asserted, has been attached to Ger many for more than 1,000 years, and the people today are as German as they were 100 years ago. The sep aration of the Sarre district, the Germans say, is to compensate France for coal destroyed in the north. But, it is contended, such a question only can be settled on an economic basis, not by tearing away nationally undisputed territory and degrading the league of nations by involving it in the transaction. I he German government declines to make any reparation in the form of punishrnent. and still more em phatically declines to pass on to individual parts of the population the punishment intended for the whole community. The annexation fo the Sarre 'district to France would mean the creation of another Alsace-Lorraine, Germany claims. and says the whole question must be reconsidered. Admit Injustice in 1871. t Still insisting that the greater part of Alsace-Lorraine is German, the Germans admit that, according to present conceptions of right, an injustice was committed in' 187i when the people were not consulted. Germany, therefore, has promised reparation, but it would be no rep aration to cede Alsace-Lorraine, with its immensely increased economic wealth, to France at once. A vote must bt taken allowing a choice between union with France, ur.ion with Germany as a free state, ard complete independence. Germany has agreed to an inde pendent Polish state, but the terms of the treaty include in it a number of totally German towns and exten sive German tracts of land for mili tary or economic reasons, without regard to nationality. or"history, it is CQflteaifii, IlL'I Prticula;ly ap- James U. Samis of LeMars, la, past grand exalted ruler of the Elks, speaking yesterday afternoon Hanscom park in connection with the Elks' annual Flag day exercises said: "The American people should concern themselves with the sub ject of labor and capital." "Many talk about labor and capi tal, but they do not know what they are talking about," he continued. ' I don't presume to tell you what you can do to avoid the evils of this situation. I have no panacea to of fer, but if we would restore a nor mal condition we should realize that we have all got to believe in and practice the thought that we should live and let live. Every man is en titled to a fair share of the rewards of his toil, and every manswho has capital to invest has a right to in vest that capital in any legitimate way he pleases, but he must be just in bis dealings with other men. If we would consider these things, it would not be difficult to sit down and adjust these differences. The trouble is not all on either side. In the last few years there has been more conceded to labor than dur ing any other time, and I am glad of it. Unfairness and injustice have been exercised in some instances on the side of capital. Must Adjust Laws. "We will never settle this labor question until we have adjusted the immigration laws to prevent the derelicts, criminals and paupers coming to this country without hindrance. We have no room in this country for the bolshevist who comes without time or inclination to become an American citizen. I would gather up every man and woman who have neglected their op portunity to become American citi zens, and I would take them to the nearest port for return to the coun tries whence they came. Any per son who will not subscribe to the doctrine of Americanism should not be given room in this country, ''We will never reach that high status of American citizenship un less we can r.ay that our flag means mere than any other flag. We are the most patriotic and fortunate' people of the world, and yet wo must face questions that demand the best patriotic intelligence. It is unfortunate that in this hour of peace we are as unprepared to enter 'hat peace, as we were to enter war two years ago. We understand that peace is about to be pro claimed, and yet right here in America, while our representatives abroad are striving to bring out peace so much to be desired, con ditions have arisen which make every man and woman sit up and wotrder what is to be the outcome, foot Enough Practical Work. "Unfortunately we have too manv churches and organizations that are doing too much preaching and not enough practical work. They are not practicing what they preach. "No matter how much we may talk of our country and our flag, it is really after all the spirit of the people that counts, the spirit which prompts us to believe our country is the best country; that our coun try is the brightest spot in all 1 of the world, and that our flag stands for more than an other flag on the face of the earth. The program was held under the auspices of the officers of Omaha lodge No. 39, Benevolent and Pro tective Order of Elks. E. C. Page read the ritualistic history of the flag, and Raymond G. Young read the Elks' tribute to the flag. The officers of the lodge formed a liberty bell of flowers, according to th?. annual custom. Oleson's orchestra and the Elks' quarte! ottered the musical features'. Rev. T. J. Mackay, chaplain of the lodge offered prayer. Members of the Elks' Flag day committee were: Frank W. Judson, Dan B. Butler, Roy N. Towl, Thos. P. Redmond, Joseph Hayden, George Brandeis, Dean Noyes, Clinton Brome, Frank C. Yates, Otto Nielson, C. A. Devine, C R. Connolly and E. A. Bierman.

Domi- nick Bamanto pleaded guilty to rjnning his automobile 12 miles an hour within the city limits. He paid $50 and costs and in addition the court dryly remarked: "You'll not run that automobile 52 miles an hour for 60 days at least." And the bailiff took the license tags from the machine and deposited them with the judge, who will keep them until the two months have elapsed. Naval Appropriation Bill Likely Passed on Monday Washington, June 15. The house worked again Saturday on the 1920 naval appropriation bill and its pas sage Monday was predicted. Paris Strike Ends. Paris, June 15. The strike of transport workers was called off Saturday and work will be resumed by all companies Monday. Americans Ford Rio Grande to Stop Firing on El Paso plies to Upper Silesia, and strong protest is entered. Germany cannot consent to the severance of East Prussia from the German empire. Germany is ready to cede to Poland such West Prus sian territories as are indisputably Polish. It is demanded that Danzig remain with the German empire, but Germany is ready to make Memel, Konigsberg and Danzig free ports in order to secure to Poland the promised access to the sea, and to grant special transit facilities under specified conditions reciprocally applied. (Continued From Page One.) Villa had his 70 wounded. As the federals were apparently not ex pecting an attack before dark, th; cuter line of trenches were thinly manned and it was necessary for federal troops to withdraw toward the town proper, carrying their machine guns and boxes of Mauser ammunition with them. Reinforcements Hurried. Then reinforcements were hurried from the flats to the west of town, where no military activity had yet occurred. Other reinforcements were marched down the steep hill fsom Fort Hidalgo and engaged the advancing enemy. After six hours of fighting sjnee bst midnight, Villa's iorces wee slowly withdrawing from Juarez at 6 o'clock Sunday morning. i Shortage of ammunition on the part of Villia's forces, coupled with a dashing cavalry charge down Com mercio street by Colonel Escobar's forces, is believed to have caused the Villa withdrawal toward the eastern suburbs of the town. Carranza troops controlled the center of the city early Sunday with cavalry still pursuing Villa. The tide of battle followed for Villa until after 3 o'clock Cunday morning. When the rebel fire died away, retirement was begun, with the federals in pursuit. Since daylight the firing has been desultory on both sides, with an oc casional shot from-Fort Hillalgo. Villa troops looted a number of stores and houses. , The federals claim to have 150 Villa dead, 50 prisoners, 10 wounded. Fighting west of town is expected to continue during the day. ' Federals Execute Prisoners. The federals executed two prisoners Preparations are being made by the federal garrison for a renew.d ot the Villa attack during the after noon or after dark. Lmergency ra tions consisting of 500 loaves of bread and quantities of sardines were imported from El Paso for the federal forces in the trenches. Ammunition is being rushed to the trenches for the federals man ning them. Barbed wire entangle ments are being restrung where cut during the recent fight. Every thing indicates renewal of attack. unless Villa has exhausted his ammunition supply. Ihe number of Villa prisoners in creased to 60 as the day wore on. Rumors persisted that many of these had been executed.! Only two known executions were witnessed by the Associated Press correspon dent. Villa was located by federals southeast of the Juarez race track This indicates a plan for renewing the attack. Martin Lopez was reported inside the city soon after 6 o'clock leading his men in desperate house to house fighting. Villa and Angeles have not yet been located, but are ' be lieved to be at the south of the town directing the assault. Col. Francisco Del Arco assumed command of the federal forces in the field opposing the Villa assault after Colonel Es cobar was wounded tonight and in: mediately cleared the buildings and railroad cars along the Mexican Northwestern and Mexican Central railroads of Villa rebels. At dusk the Villa torces were again where they were' when they started their attack at 4:40 Sunday afternoon south of the agricultural college and north of the racetrack. War Department In Touch. Washington. June 15. Reports of finhting between rebel and govern ment forces in Juarez, Mex., directly across the Rio Grande from El Paso, were scanned closely today Ly state and war department ofh cials. The fact that bullets had fal len on the American side of the bor der, endangering American life and property led to the belief that some action might be ordered by the United States government, but so tar as could be learned tonight at the State department no steps had been taken. At the War depart ment it was reiterated that Major General DeRosey Cabell, command ing the border guard, had instruc tions to deal with the situation as he saw fit. Dispatches to the state depart ment said Villa torces attacked Juarez at 12:30 this morning a,nd re mained in possession of the town two hours before being driven out by the Carranza troops under Gen eral Gonzales. The dispatches said no Americans were killed, although stray bullets wounded several in El Paso. General Aeuilar, head of the spe cial Mexican mission to the United States, tonight made public a dis patch , from Juarez saying that in the battle early Sunday it had been officially reported that the Villistas suffered losses ot 87 dead, tnree wounded and 45 prisoners. Among the dead, the dispatch said, was Jose Castro, said to be a general in the Villa army. Another officer, Jesus Brillo who was severely wounded, according to the dispatch, was said to have had in his pos session when taken prisoner valua ble plans and dispatches belonging to Villa. ' y Hero Directs Men for Hours Despite Wounds Knoxville. Tenn.. June 15. The hero of the 30th division, and of the entire army i-n the eyes of the of ficers and men of the 117th regi ment, was Capt. David W., Lillard of Etowah, Tenn., according to Col. Carry F. Spence of this city. Cap tain Lillard directed his men under fire for several hours after he had been hit by two magazines of 14 bullets each which tore his side and abdomen horribly. After he was unable to keep his feet he di rected the advance of Company L from a shell hole.- His father.

Vickers-Vimy machine. We have just come from Newfoundland. ' Crowd Gasps, Then Cheers. The little crowd gasped and'then cheered and cheered again. Alcock, in telling his story; said, i among otner tnings: "We landed in the softest spot in Ireland, but I really wonder that we got here with our wireless out of action. Neither of us got much fun out of the flight. It was a job of work." Brown said: "We are too near it to realize what is we have done." Brown was able to take only four readings of the airplane's position, one from .the sun, one from the moon, one trom the Pole star and one from the Vega. Plans for receiving Alcock and Brown are being hurriedly formu lated by the Aero club and the air ministry. It had not been believed that the aviators would be able to leave Newfoundland fof nother week. Their start was a complete surprise and the quick success of the trip found the officials unpre pared to welcome them. . Almost Disbelieved News. Although intensely interested in the flight, Londoners apparently were not as enthusiastic as during Hawker's attempt to span the ocean. The people also seemed to remem ber that when the news of the suc cess of the trip reached London the erroneous reports first given out that Hawker had been sighted near Ireland. The question, "Is it true?" was heard on many sides when the extra editions of the newspapers ap peared on the streets. Few workmen were on duty at the Vickers plant, where Alcock's plane Mvas constructed, but those there cheered the news. The man ager of the plant said the company always had had great confidence m Alcock, who was with the company before the war. He added that there was nothing special in the construction of the machine which made the flight, ex cept that petrol tanks had replaced the bombing apparatus. King George learned of the suc cess of the flight of Alcock and Brown as he was leaving church at Westminster today. The king im mediately telegraphed his congratu lations to the airmen. Many high officials also sent them messages and greetings. Other Airmen Not Deterred. St. Johns, N. F., June 15. The triumphant crossing of the Atlantic by Capt. Jack Alcock and Lieut. Arthur W. Brown will not deter other airmen here from emulating the feat, according to announce ments made by the aviators today. The London Daily Mail's $50,000 prize for the first non-stop flight having fallen to the Vickers-Vimy machine, crews of the other air planes being assembled here are de voting their attention to a contest for the speediest voyage across the ocean. They expect the British air ministry or private enthusiasts to offer speed prizes. News of the ar rival of Alcock and Brown in Ire land spread like wildfire and caused great jubilation. The British air men expressed their delight that America, having won first honors by an interrupted transoceanic flight, Great Britain was able to even the score by triumphing in the non-stop passage. Wholehearted Congratulation. Washington, June 15. Whole hearted congratulation for the fliers and prediction that the event will gq far towards popularizing long dis tance flight characterized the cony ment made by naval officials here on the completion of the first non stop transatlantic air voyage. "It was a wonderful feat." said Secretary Daniels. "I congratulate Mr. Alcock and rejoice with him. His flight is indicative'of the great things that are ahead in aviation." Rear Admiral David Taylor, chief naval constructor, father of the plan to cross the sea in an airship, also expressed his admiration of the pluck of the two British aviators. I am heartily glad they made it, Admiral Taylor declared. "It means that long distance flying will become more popular, and we can expect other record making trips." Without detractine m the least from the exploit of the British pilot, naval airmen here pointed out the very unusual good weather condi tions which attended the start of the flight. The winds over the course were said to have been favorable yesterday and last night and the only hindrance was fog. Some speculation immediately was heard as to the possible effect of the Vickers-Vimy plane's success upon plans of the army air setvice for the transcontinental flight. The an nounced schedules is for one "hop" from Mineola, L. I., to North Platte, Neb., about 1,502 miles, or some 450 miles less than the record set by the British aviators. It would not surprise followers of the army air service if these plans should be now re-drawn. STRIKERS DOING PICKET DUTY ARE BEATEN SUNDAY (CnntlntuHt Frm Tut One.)

Law-abiding citizens of Omaha shall at once take steps: To protect their wives and daugh ters from the horrors of East St. Louis! , To safeguard their homes, their valuables and their lives! Do you want to suffer from an influx of negroes and disreputables like Omaha experienced in the sum mer of 1917? We are reliably informed that a carload of negroes is again being imported from East St. Louis, in order to break the strike of the Omaha teamsters who are fighting for a living wage and the right to belong to a union. Prettiest Mile revolver club, take notice! Conference Committee Teamsters Union, Local 211. Sympathetic Strike Probable. Officials of the various crafts de nied that any sympathetic walkout was being considered by any of the locals who held meetings Sunday. When questioned as to the possibil ity of a sympathetic strike with the teamsters and other crafts now out, they admitted that such action was highly probable. Officials of the Teamsters union stated Sunday that they had net asked for a sympathetic walkout on the part of the other locals. If such action is being considered, they de clared, it is without their knowledge. Despite claims of growing strength on the part of the union faction, employers stated that the situation would be normal in a few days. At the office of the Omaha Merchants Express Co. it was stated that nearly every wagon and truck owned by that company would be on the streets today. Heads of the Sunderland Brothers Co. stated that more than 50 per cent of their men were working. Threats by the strikers serve to keep many of the drivers from work, it was said. Employers expressed t a willing ness to meet their own men but would not confer with a committee of - the strikers. Union officials stated that should the men meet with their individual employers it would be equivalent to a declaration that the strike was lost. Robert Vaughn, chairman of the strikers' conference committee, claimed that steady progress was beine made bv the strikers. Un less a quick agreement is reached transportation facilities will be conv nletelv tied up. The charges made in the circulars, he said, come from reliable sources which he is not at present at liberty to divulge. "Should Have Cared for Him," Says Aged Husband Kansas City, Mo.s June 15.

Buckner, asking what reason his wife, who he was suing for divorce., had for leaving him. Corness explained the couple were married in 1897 and she left her husband in 1913 for Cali fornia. "She left me May 21, 1913, saying she was going to California to care for her father, I have not seen her since," the aged man said. He got his divorce, which was not contested.

UBSL YELLOW TflKI CO. Original Low Fare Taxi NORMAL SERVICE - CALL DOUGLAS 321 Judging from the eountless preparations and treatments which are continually be ing advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lilies of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need more phosphate than is "ntained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among drug gists aa bitro-phosphate. which is inex pensive and is sold by Sherman ft McCon nell in Omaha and most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back.. By feeding tbe nerves directly and by supplying the body cells with the neces sary phosphoric food elements, bitro- phosphate should produce a welcome trans formation in the appearance; the increase in weight frequently being astonishing. Increase in weight also carries with ft a general improvement in the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of en ergy, which nearly always accompany ex cessive thinness, should soon disappear, dull eyes ought to brighten and pale cheek a glow with the bloom of perfect health, CAUTION: Although Bitro-phosphat is unsurpassed for relieving nervousness, sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not, owing to its tendency to in crease weight, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh.
