14 THE BEE: OMAHA, THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1919. INVESTIGATOR RAISES IRE OF YANK ALGIERS Aspersions Cast at Canteen and Red Cross Workers In War Zone Resented by Soldiers. ;ew York, June 18. "I think any body who has any control over a young woman is doing very wrong to- let her go to France and enter tain soldiers, dance with them, and so on. Human nature is the same on the Marne as on Broadway. . . . Canteen workers and enter tainers were not necessary." . jnis irom auss fclizabeth Mar btfry, a self-appointed investigator or something like that, who gave vent to her opinions in New York on the eve of her 60th trip, to Europe, says the Stars and Stripes, the official publication of the A. E. J The paper then comments as follows: -Ain't it the truth? Think how niuch better a man you would be today if you had been let alone with your innocent imaginings and your boulevard mademoiselles and all that. But instead you were lured away to some lowly canteen by a siren girl worker to satiate your dissipated appetite with roast beef and potatoes, and maybe you actual ly indulged in vicious conversation, asking her whether she ever met Sadie Smith the time she went to Cedar Rapids, la., because Sadie is your girl. And then you may have sunk to such depths of depravity as to show her Sadie's picture, and this scarlet vampire of a canteen worker actually admitted that she looked real nice. Or it's possible that you forgot home and mother long enough to go to one of their awful entertain ments. There you heard an Ameri can girl sing 'American songs and accompany herself on an American piano. You were so glad to see her that you could have kissed her, which shows how damnably dan gerous she was. But in the cold, gray dawn of the morning after you thought it over with your face suf fused with crimson blushes, ar.d wished oh, how you wished! that you hadn't allowed your young virile manhood to be blasted by her songs of "My Old Kentucky Home," but had been left to spend your guile less evening in that little joint down the line where they serve you cog nac in coffee cups at a franc and a half a hoist. . But virtue will triumpn. inarm God for the Miss Elizabeth Mar burys who made 60 trips to Europe, as self-appointed investigators or something like that, to lead us out of temptation and deliver us from Wouldn't our morals be the rot ten old things without 'em? 7A We Advise Every Woman In Omaha to Attend This ?7m, Ladies a Now Going On 200 Pairs of browa oxfords and pumps, mili tary heels, broken lots, but good run of sfzes ; special to close, at $3.95 Every lady's Shoe in Our Store Is Now On Sale At Reduced Prices 50 Pairs of white canvas oxfords, military heels; special to close, at, pair $3.45 ISO Pairs of white linen oxfords and pumps, Louis and military heels ; special, at $3.95 COLONIAL. pumps, sand or gray suede with full thin Louij heel and metal buckle.

PROHIBITION IS MADE DRASTIC BY ACTION OF HOUSE Sentiment of Judiciary Com mittee Generally Opposed Exempting Beer and Wines From Wartime Act. (By Universal Service.) Washington, June 18. The Unit ed States will be bone dry after July 1, following the action yesterday of the house judiciary committee in de feating a motion by Representative Igoe, democrat of Missouri, to ex empt light wines and beer from the provisions of the war. time prohibi tion enforcement act, by a vote of 10 to 3. Those who voted with Mr. Tgoe were Representative Gard, democrat, of Ohio, and Representative Classon, republican, of Wisconsin. Representative Steels, democrat, of Pennsylvania, was prepared to vote for the Igoe motion, but was absent from the room when the vote was taken. He succeeded later, however, in having his name record ed in favor of the motion. Ten Favored Exemption. Only one other member of the committee is known to have been in favor of the repeal movement. He is , Representative Dyer, rep ublican, of Missouri, who was ab sent. Seven other members of the committee were absent. They were: Representatives Gra ham, of Pennsylvania; Reavis, of Nebraska and Husted, New York, republicans, and Thomas, Ken tucky; Whaley, South Carolina, and Neeley, West Virginia, democrats Members voting against the re peal were: r . . ri. J ti jxcyrcseruauves v oisicau, .Minne sota; chairman; Morgan, Okla homa; Walsh, Massachusetts; Cur rie, Michigan; Boies, Iowa; Chris topherson, South Dakota; Yates, Illinois; and Goodykoontz, West Virginia, republicans, and Represen tatives Webb, North Carolina, and Caraway, Arkansas, democrats, of being used as a beverage." Following defeat of the motion, the committee proceeded with the drafting of the bill creating ma chinery for the enforcement of war time and constitutional prohibition. The committee's decision on the in terpretation of the term "intoxicat ing liquors" is the most drastie yet written on the statute books of the United States. It follows: 'That the word 'liquor' or thci prrase intoxicating liquor used ir. this act shail be construed to in clude alcohol, brandy, whisky, ruin, gin, beer, ale, port and wine, and in addition thereto, any spirituous or vinous, malt or fermentel liquor, liquids and compounds, whether medicated, prqpriteary, patented or not, and by whatever name called, containing one-half of one per centum or more of alcohol by vol ume, which are potable or capable of being used a a berage." A motion to separate war-time ana constitutional prohibition en forcement bills was lost on a tie vote, 8 to 8. Representative Walsh, who made the motion insisted that congress wou'd be placed in a ridiculous position if it passed this omnibus bill and the president within a month or six weeks should rescind war-tin'e prohibition of b;er and, wine. Mr. Walsh asserted further that the effect of the omnibus bill would be to continutt'war time prohibition of beer and wine even after the president has acted unless congress could be brought to consider the repeal and amendment of part of the enforcement act. The enforcement bill will be re ported before the end of the present week, accoring to the present plans of the committee. Its considera tion in the house will be asked early next week. Charge Medical Body With Framings Laws to Eliminate Fellows New York, June 18. The Amer ican Medical association was charged with trying "to frame laws to eliminate the other 200,000 phy sicians and surgeons of which it does not approve," in the address 'of Dr. Ignatz Mayer, of Detroit, pres ident of trie Allied Medical asso ciation, at its annual convention here. "Our association has gone on rec ord as being opposed to low stand ard medical schools and diploma mills and will not admit into mem bership those who are not qualified to practice," Dr. Mayer said, "but it sees no reason to exclude osteopaths or drugless physicians who have re ceived a .thorough medical training covering a period of several years." Dr. Mayer was re-elected presi dent. Dr. L. M. Ottofy, St. Louis, was re-elected for the eighth time secretary-treasurer. Prays for Buyer for Farm; Wrong Man Came; Files Suit Chehalis, Wash., June 18. "One night I prayed to God to send a buyer for the farm," says Mrs. Dorothy Ann Mawson, in her suit here against F. T. Hamshaw and others, to set aside transfer of land. "Then Hamshaw came next day and I sold him the farm for $1 and some shares of . stock in a tractor com pany." Mrs. Mawson says she now knows that "God didn't send Hamshaw" and asks that the land be returned to her. She claims the tractor stock is valueless. "Stench Mystery" Is Solved , By City Health Inspectors The "stench mystery" which has bothered residents of East Omalra and city health officials for some time was solved when Health In spector.

Crary. 1622 Spencer street, that the stench invaded theentire vi cinity and prevented sicca My Heart and My Husband Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wife What Rita Brown Did to End the "Party." A "Look here. Dicky Graham," Rita Brown shrilled loudly. "Cut that high-and-mighty pose right now. Where do you get off withit any way? Nobody ever heard of your being shocked at anything, no mat ter now low. That's your rep, my lad, so don't try any dodges like this on me, just because your wife's with you. As for Leila " Leila Fairfax seemed to shrink into her chair, while, a gray pallor crept over her face. ,"Oh, Rita, don't!" she breathed. I guessed that though the Fairfax girls had been thrown much with Miss Brown, this was the first time the gentle southern girl had seen the other woman with the veneer stripped from the very common wood of her personality. "Don't get excited, dearie," Dicky advised lazily, in quite his former, manner, although I had seen his lips set in a thin line at Miss Brown's reference to me. "If you behave, we'll let you stay a while longer, but if you turn that calliope whistl on again, we'll mosey out of here, pronto. I'm a quiet, law-abiding pusson, and I don't hanker after no bouncer coming this way and requesting us to get out. I'd rather beat him to it." I caught my breath in terrified amazement. I couldn't understand Dirky at all. He must have seen as had the rest of us that Rita Brown's temper was decidedly af fected by what she had taken, and that soothing words instead of ag gravating ones were necessary if we" were to avoid an exhibition of her rage. Yet he was going out of his way to tease her. "Dicky," I whispered, "don't tease her." I , thought no one could possibly hear the words, but Rita Brown's ears must have been preternaturally sharpened. She turned her eyes on me for a second with an expression of contempt that relegated me to the nethermost point of her horizon. "Don't .worry about me," she said, her tone icy, in spite of the. fact thac her lips were visibly trembling with rage. "Keep your sympathy for your husband. He's going to nctd it in another minute." She turned on Dicky with eyes a:nl cheeks fairly aflame with rage. "You you!" she choked, and then before anyone guessed what she meant to do, she picked up the glass the waiter had just brought, and tl.tew glass and contents at Dicky's face. With almost incredible quickness to my excited observation it seemed almost as if he had expected her to do exactly that very thing he threw up his hand, and struck at the glass, so that it fell to the table in front of him, shattering it against a plate, and spattering the liquor over the cloth, but luckily resulting in no injury to anyone. Alfred Durkee looked quickly around, his . face drained of every vestige of color. I know what pride of appearance is hidden underneath his volatile good-nature, was sure that he was suffering an agony of humiliation that the mother whom he idolized should be involved in so tawdry a scene. Fortunately, how ever, the crashing music of the jazz orchestra had effectively drowned both Rita's raucous voice and the crash of the glass. But his expres sion when he turned back and looked at her was as set and stern as if a whole regiment of officials were advancing toward our table. "Let's get out of this," he said, signalling to a waiter. "Check!" lie commanded briefly when the man had come, and then he looked ap pealingly at his mother. "Sorry to hurry you, mother, dear," he said and there was a choke in his voice, an expression in his eyes that read the funeral service over any fancy he may have had for the girl who had just outraged all canons of decent drecding. "Oh, I'm quite ready to go!" lit tle Mrs. Durkee rejoined with a brave assumption of casualness, and in a few moments more we were out in the air and rushing homeward. Rita Brown had uttered no word since the glass had left her hand. Palpably subdued she preceded s out of the cafe, punctiliously guided by Alfred Durkee, who, after that first withering look, paid her the same outward attention that he had give her on the trip over. But my heart beat fast with the hope that any povyer she might have had over him was gone. (Continued Tomorrow.) Omaha Sailor Drowns. Chicago, 111. June 18. (Special Telegram). James Lawrence Wil son, Omaha sailor just discharged from the service, was drowned in lake Michigan last night. The body was recovered. Negro In Winter Suit Steals a Palm Beach; Says He Was Hungry Kansas City, Mo., June 18. A Palm Beach suit, on a dummy in front of the store of A. Weine. caused the downfall of Houston Williams, a negro. "Here Ah am, with last winter's suit, and dat dummy with a Pa'm Beach cooler ' mused Houston, the thermometer registering 90 in the fhade. So he put the dummy un der his arm, and began making quick time down the street. "Buck" Stephenson, former "cop," who now operates a clothes clean ing shop, just across the street from the store where the dummy was, sfiw the peiformance, started i:i pursuit and caught the negro. In south municipal court, Judge Fleming asked Williams: "Why did you take that- suit?" "I wux hiugry, jedge," replied Williams. "Could you eat a Palm Beach suit?" queried the judge. Williams l.?d no reply, so "hizonnor" said. $50 fine, Houston.
