    THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1919
ftftl JUDGE
RAPS' FOSTER AS
DANGEROUS MAN
Leadef 0f Striking Steel
Workers Bitterlv Denounced
"Dangerous Domes
tic Enemy."
Philadelphia. Sept 30. William
Zjbulon Foster, leader of the strik
ing steel workers, was bitterly de-
lounced as a dangerous domestic
fnemv" bv Judge Joseph Buffington
fof the United States circuit court of
' appeals.
Tudee Buffinsrton. with Circuit
Judge Morris of Wilmington, Del.,
presided over a session of the nat
uralization court and he warned the
' prospective citizens to beware of
such dangerous agitators as Foster.
Foreign-born Well Paid.
"I have been all through the steel
and other industrial establishments
in the western part of the state,"
said Judge Buffington, "and I have
found the foreign-born element well
paid, contented and happy. But there
is in my town (Pittsburgh), now a
man, William Zebulon Foster, who
is going among the foreign popula
tion teaching terrible doctrines of
anarchy in his book; things that go
to the destruction of the American
government.
, "The most dangerous man I know
rf -is the parlor bolshevist, who
doesn't work and who doesn't know
anything about working people, but
who-preaches discord and creates
unrest,, and causes unhappiness in
families by his preaching of un
American doctrines.
Foster Causing Unrest.
"Foster is the type of man who
is causing all this unrest amongst
the foreign-born, not only of this
state, but of the country. I have
known the habits and the desires

of the foreign born of this state too
long to be deluded to the belief
that they 'are responsible for the
present unrest. The danger to
American institutions is not in the
foreign born; it is in the native
born.
"This man Foster is a native
born citizen. He is a most danger
ous leader and a dangerous domes
tic enemy. I say this right from
the shoulder, because I feel it is my
duty to do so.
"The man who tells you that no
government is better than any sort
of government; the man who
preaches anarchy, and the man who
is always kicking about the govern
ment is a domestic enemy, and you
should avoid him. If he doesn't
like this country, or the way it is
governed, he ought to get a pass
port and get out of it."
House Passes Law
Governing Storage Food
Washington, Sept. 30. Additional
legislation recommended by Presi
dent Wilson as a means of reducing
living costs was passed today by
the house and sent to the senate.
It would limit the time of holding
foodstuffs in cold storage to 12
months and require that when re
leased such food be plainly marked
with the date it was placed in storage.
New Escutcheon Without
Arms Now Is Adopted
Berlin, Sept. 24. (Correspondence
of The Associated Press.) Ger
many has a new escutcheon, from
which the Hohenzollern arms have
been eliminated. It consists of a
black one-headed eagle on a golden
yellow field.
The "new" eagle, which has shed
its erstwhile imperial crown and
collar, is not a rampant bird and
would look sedate enough in its
sitting posture but for the color of
its' beak, tongue and talons, which
are red.

The first movement in the colossal
work of starting up the county ma
chinery in the court house after the
holocaust of Sunday night was be
gun yesterday when the county
treasurer's office started business in
the criminal court on the fourth
floor. The entire working force was
present. Benches were removed from
the large c3tft room and desks,
stationery, etc. installed.
New books have been ordered atid
the almost-hopeless task started of
restoring in some degree the burned
records.
Expert Opens Vault.
An expert locksmith yesterday
succeeded in opening the door of
the vaults in the offices of the
county treasurer and county clerk.
The walls of these vaults are pro
tected from heat by a nine-inch
sheath of tile. But the great steel
doors, exposed to the heat of the
flames were somewhat damaged
and opened only with great diffi
culty. Most of the most valuable records
of the county are in these vaults
together with bonds, warrant rec
ords, etc. The $1,000,000 of Douglas
county highway improvement bonds
recently issued were sent to the sec
retary of state's office in Lincoln
for signature last Thursday.
County Clerk Dewey established
his temporary office yesterday in the
Douglas county pioneers' room on
the ground floor, where he will do
business until his office has been re
stored.
Large forces of workmen began
clearing the debris from the ruined
offices and hauling it in wheelbar
rows to the street.
$10,000 for Windows.
It will cost $10,000 just to restore
the plate glass windows which were
broken with stones and bricks and
shot out by bullets.
A most serious problem facing the
county commissioners is the placing
of the building in condition to make
work possible when the weather
turns cold, which may occur any
day.
It was said yesterday that there
isn't enough plate glass in the city
to replace all the broken windows.
The steam fixtures have been
broken in dozens of places, and per-
haps entirely ruined in the devastat- t
ed offices, by the heat of the flames. !
The radiators in many places are j
broken from the pipes and the whole
steam heating system badly dam
aged.
Authorize Rebuilding.
The county commissioners yester
day authorized John Latenser, archi
tect of the court house, to proceed
with rebuilding the burned portion
of the building. The most pressing
work will be done at once, pending
issue of bonds for the main part of
the work.
The register of deeds' office was
placed temporarily in the juvenile
court room and the county commis
sioners authorized Register Pearce
to hire as many men as he can get
to proceed with the great work of
replacing the burned land indexes
which are the key to the thousands
of properties listed in the registry
books. Replacing these indexes is a
colossal work.
Fourth Day of Miners
Confab on Wages Opens
.Buffalo. N. Y.. Sept. 30. The
fourth day of the wage conference
between onerators and miners ot
the central soft coal field began with
none of the vital questions solved
and with the strike of 400,000
miners on November 1 still a possi-'
bility.
Both sides expressed hope that
common ground would be found
for an amicable adjustment of dis
puted questions, including the status
of the wartime contract of 191c?,
which the operators claim is bind
ing until April, 1920, and which the
miners say ceased to be in force
with the withdrawal of the United
States army from Europe.

New York, Sept. 30. The New
York business of Swift & Co., has

ary 10, last, according to a state
ment bv W. H. Noyes. vice-presi

Post Commanders
Gin Order Troops
Out to Prevent Riots
Washington, Sept. 30. Authority
has been given commanding generals
of military departments to furnish
troops necessary jor the protection
of lives and property in case of dis
orders in the limits of their depart
ments. Such protection can be fur
nished only upon request from the
proper state officials, the instruc
tions from Secretary Baker said.
It was explained that the action
was taken to obviate the necessity
of departmental commanders refer
ring such requests to the depart
ment with consequent danger of the
disorders getting out of control be
fore action could be taken.
