DECKS FOR VOTE
Advocates to Block All Other
Legislation Until Pay Bill
Is Brought Up for
Passage. x
Washington, May 27.' Advocates
of the soldier relief bill served notice
in the house today that beginning
tomorrow they would seek to block
all legislation until the measure is
brought up for pasage. Representa
tive Mason, republican, Illinois, made
such an announcement amid loud ap
plause and later Hepresentative Mur
phy, republican of Ohio, repeated it.
"We are tired of this confidence
game," declared Mr. a "Mason, re
ferring to delay in bringing, the .bill
before the house.
Representative Fordney republi
can, Michigan, in charge of the
measure said its passage might be
attempted Saturday, but some other
leaders thought that it might go
over until next week.
The rules committee today or
dered favorable, report of a resolii-
tion suspending house rules for six
days, beginning Saturday, the plan
being to bring up the relief bill fiur
ing thai time. 1
Speaks of Big Steal. , ,
Prolonged debate on the bill,
though bitter at times, disclosed no
open opposition to it. ' Mr. Mason
in answering affirmatively a question
hy Representative Henry T. Rainey,
democrat, Illinois, as to whether the
former favored an 80 per cent war
profits tax to finance the proposal,
crfarecd that B. M. Baruch, "had
stolen $50,000,000 of war profits on
copper.
' "I'm willing to support such a
proposal," Mr. Mason said, "but I
am afraid what your offer is not to
help but to defeat the legislation that
the soldiers want. I am willing to
vote to have your attorney, general
bring suit against Barney Baruch,
the chief manthe closest man to the
president of the United States who
stole $50,000,000 in copper alone."
Newspapers Atacked.
Representative Mason did not
elaborate on his charge and his re
marks passed without comment from
the democratic side. His assertion
that the war profits tax was one of
the democratic proposals to defeat
the bill, however, brought denials
from democrats, some of whom an-
nounced their support of the meas
ure. During the debate senators and
newspapers opposed to the bill were
criticised. Representative Frear, re
publican, .Wisconsin, called on the
house to "protest" against senators
inserting into the Congressional Rec
ord anti-bonus ar.ficles which charac
terized the legislation as a "raid on
the treasury."

SETTINGS WRONG
Simplicity and Beauty of Pres
ent Day Are Better,
Expert Says. '
"The old stage productions lack
harmony and unity," said Frederic
McConnell in his lecture on "Modern
Stage Decoration" uider auspices of
the Omaha Drama league, Thursday
afternoon at the ' Fontcnelle hotel.
"The elaborate settings which were
used in a former day detract from
the actors. The new settings show
simplicity and beauty, and emphasis
is now placed on the action of the
play," according to Mr. McConnell.
The lantern slides nsed by Mr. Mc
Connell to illustrate his lecture are
said to be the finest in the country.
They were collected by Mr. McCon
nell and Samuel Hume of the Arts
and Crafts theater in Detroit. Stage
settings from 1642 to the present day
were shown.

ment of trade and commerce an
nounced' today the department had
taken over the Farmers Stnte bf.nk
at Dix, Neb. The bank has been
closed. . i
"The failure," said a statement by
Secretary Hart, "is attributed to
lack of experience in management

. He added that unless some ar
rangements could be made to re
lieve the situation, a rec;ivership
would be asked.
The bank was organized and char
tered January 16, 1917, by Gus Linn,
Emory J. Horrum, and George L.
Cogler, of Kimball. The capital stock
was $10,000, and the bank opened

Committee On Way to

New York. May 27. A committee

here tonight for the tederal peni-

notification to Eugene Debs, serving
a term for a violation of the espion
age law, of his nomination for presi
dent on the socialist oartv ticket.
The committee will go to the prison
Saturday morning and seek permis
sion for their candidate to receive
the notification and make a speech
in reply.
Mr. Stedman jokingly remarked
that the committee might take up
with Mr. Debs'the matter of cabinet
appointments. '
I thmk from the standpoint of
public interest," Mr. Stedman said,
"that if the matter has been fully
presented to the president, and if
the department of justice realizes
what it means, they will release Mr.
Debs before his notification and ac
ceptance. It might not be a goods
example to have a prisoner in a
penitentiary accept the nomination
for the presidency of the United
States. It might have a tendency to
lake away the sting of imprisonment

Chiracs Tribune-Omaha Bea Leased Wire.
Chicago, May 27. Lowden or a
dark horse seems to be the general
trend of opinion along "Presidential
row." National committeemen, lead
ers from various states, both re
publican and democratic, are ar
riving for the national convention
and there is a general sifting of all
possibilities and angles of the some
what tapgled situation. It is gen
erally agreed that the investigation
of campaign expenditures has in
jured General Wood's chances, while
Senator Johnson, chief instigator of
this investigation, is about as popu
lar as a barrel of rattlesnakes.
Governor Lowden, it is admitted,
has expended a lot of money, but
he "came clean" before the investi
gators and the general opinion
seems to be that the inquiry has not
harmed him. His frankness in ad
mitting and proving that he spent his
own money has made a hit with the
politicians.
Of the dark horses Governor Coo1
idge has galloped to the front in the
last 24 hours, showing an amazing
burst of speed. Nicholas Murray
Butler, with the 88 votes of the New
York delegation behind him, is also
edging into the limelight. He is also
expected to get the New Jersey dele
gation if the Wood and Johnson
booms blow up.
Senator Poindexter, also among
the dark horses, is attracting fresh
attention. It is pointed out that he
holds the unique position of not hav
ing antagonized any of the other
candidates and might count upon
their help after they see their own
case is hopeless.
Hoover men are becoming -more
numerous ahd are demanding that
there be a rigid examination of John
son's expenditures in California and
the California source of the funds be
ing expended in other states in his
behalf. It is said the Connecticut
delegation will stick to Hoover until
the last ditch and it is expected that
state will furnish the spellbinder who
will present his name to the conven
tion. Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas
for president on the republican ticket
and Senator Morris Sheppard of
Texas for the democratic, standard
bearer are the. choices of the pro
hibition forces.

Love of Half Century,
Broken by Divorce,
Renewed in Hospital
Chlcuio Tribune-Omaha Bea Leased Wire.
Chicago, May 21. "Lucy, dear
old girl I I want you to under
stand. It was all a mistake about
about that divorce."
Lemuel Barnard was barely able
to whisper this message to the white
haired woman bending over him in
the hospital.
"I understand Lemuel. Don't
worry. And we are going to mend
matters as soon 'as the doctor says
you are well enough."
It was the renewal of a love that
had burned brightly for half a cen
tury. Lemuel Barnard is 77, and his
wife is 72. Some difference arose
and they were divorced April" 4,
1919. But they could not live apart.
The old man found himself in a
strange world without the love and
care -of the woman with whom he
had traveled for 50 years and he
finally wound up in the hospital,
calling for his lifelong mat. She
too, had been ill ahd distressed but
she gave no sign of it when she
hastened to answer his call for her.
Physicians say the condition of both
is serious, but if they survive, they
are to be remarried.
