FORPERSIIING
Only Logical That Nebraska
Should Indorse Native Son.
V Declares City Com
I , missioner.
r'A . .
mj commissioner warry p
Zimman, long active in Omaha poli
tics and civic affairs, has announced
his support of the movement to give
John J. Pershing the indorsement
of Nebraska in the republican presi
dential preference.
Mr. Zimman not only favors Per
iling, but expresses confidence in
jis success at the election April 20.
I lo not see how it can be other
lise," he said. "I cannot imagine
,at when Nebraska is honored by
, distinguished a native son, the
ate will fail to indorse him.
'General Pershing recognizes this
nis nome state, ana inrougnoui
e war Nebraskans were proud of
,iie iaci. s- iNcurasKans we re
priced in fiis appointment to head the
American expeditionary iorces ana
Kve boasted of his success in battle
strategy and in the intricate organi
zation behind the battle lines. I
fail to see how we can now refuse
im the reward which faithful serv-
e warrants.
"Within the last few days there
ave been authoritative statements
at while General Pershing refuses
i encase in a mad chase after the
residency, he will not dodge the
uty and naturally will appreciate
lie vote of his home state. No Ne-
askan can find excuse, under these
nditions, for failing to vote for a
low Nebraskan of such tinques
ned ability and admitted qualin
ion." ...
fi Try Two Free Balloon
I Flights With Same Bag
ITwo free balloon fliehts will be
lade from Fort Omaha this after-
ton with one balloon.
lA party of six officers will make
ht first flight, of at least one hour
Juration. The second flight will be
solo by Cant. H. T. Lewis in case
ihe balloon can be landed without
deflating so the others may alight.
'..The velocity of the ground wind
It the point where the landing is
Effected will be the greatest factor
1 deciding the second flight, om
Irs at the fort said. If it is not
Irontr enough to cause the balloon
d basket to drag, the solo can be
fcomplished, they explained.
The purpose of the flight is the
Iialincation ot onicers tor licenses
i free balloon pilots. Lieut. W. E.
uffman will pilot the first flight,
ith Capts. F. J. Durrschmidt and
Burns ana it. y. uiuson as pas
