THE BEE : OMAHA," FRIDAY. MARCH 11. 19211
Appropriation
Bill as Amended
: Passed by House
l)famalio Plea of Representa
tive Jeary gets $120,000
Fund for Tubercular
Hospital.
Lincoln, March 10. (Special. )
The dry, hacking cough of the tuber
cular, "described in dramatically
i-onched IauguuKe by Representative
Jeary of Lincoln, today forced open
'the purses of the Nebraska legisla
ture and caused it to vote 120.000
tor improvement?, including; a new
hospital for the stale tubercular hos
pital at Kearney.
"Shame on you gentlemen who a
few minutes ago voted an increase
of $100,000 for bridges in thd state
and sit here figuring in cold dollars
und cents on a proposition which
beyond dispute will s;we the lives of
many if we vote this ?1 20.000." Jeary
said, "llridges could wait. Tubercu
losis works fast and rapidly. You say
wait two rears. If you wait two
years, just how many lives of tuber
culars will be charged against you?"
Plea Carries Day.
The Jearv plea came up when the
1,301,757.45 appropriation bill was
heina considered bv the lower house.
A number of farmers fought the
yinemlmcnt offered bv Representative
Gould to appropriate the $120,000 for
the tuberculosis hospital. Cut the
leary plea silenced them.
There were only two more addi
tional items tacked onto the appropri
ation bill. One demand came from
the democrats, headed by Represen
tative O'Gara. asking to increase the
bridge fund from $250,000 to $350,
000. There was a short fight, ending
in victory for the democratic mem
bers when the O'Gara amendment
carried.
The big bank failure at Blair was
responsible for an additional appro
priation of $6,000 to employ an ad
ditional bank examiner under J. E.
Hart, secretary of trade and com
merce. . Halt Bank Failures.
1 "Let's try to do something to
avert these terrible losses to the de
positors of Nebraska." Representa
tive Frantz, author of the $6,000
amendment, said. The amendment
carried. svl "" '
The rhre -amendments adopted
will cost $226,1100 and increases the
total of the appropriation bill to $21,
527.757.43. .
'Representative Douglas of Polk
didn't receive more than four votes
on a motion to trim the attorney
sfeneral's.. appropriations. Douglas
declared that this officer-was going
into a too extensive, program in hir
ing assistant attorneys general. Rep
resentative, Reed of Dawes was on
his feet instantly in defending the
attorney general's department.
' Defend Attorney General, i
"The attorney general is one pf
the (cw officers who bobbed up at
the end of the biennium with $25,000
, which had not been expended," Reed
said. "He has more work than ever
with bank failures -to" investigate,
blue sky investigations, since the
enactment of the blue sky law two
vears ago, and many other impor
tant problems to deal with that never
before in history were checked up
to him."
Even 'Alfalfa John Franklin
fought against trimming the attor
ney general's appropriation It was
the only timeduring the session that
"Alfalfa John" wasn't fighting for a
reduction in appropriations. " "The
attorney general is O. K. and he
should 'have all he asked for," "Al
falfa John" declared.
Attempts of Representative Ep
person to trim one of two appropria
tions also failed.
Censorship of
Movies Comes Up
In House Today
7
Bitter Fight Expected on Four
Bills Which Treat Subject 0
From All Possible
Angles.
Lincoln, March 10. (Special.)
The big tight of the present session,
one for which members have been
in training for weeks, is scheduled
for tomorrow in the lower house,
when the motion picture censorship
bills are to be considered.
There are four bills to be consid
dered, each holding out a "cure" for
the alleged movie evil growing out
of numberless sex problem and crime
j screen.
Une is the straignt srate censor
ship bill which will create jobs for
more politicians and give a censor
ship board of three power to say
what pictures will be shown in' the
state. It is the bill prepared and
backed by the welfare commission.-
The Byrum-Gifford bill would bar
any pictures showing crime or sex
problems.
The McFarland bill would make
it a misdemeanor to show pictures
which would disrupt morals, leav
ing it to a local judge to decide
upon the, moral corruption, if any, in
the picture, when the movie picture
man is brought before him on a war
rant issued at the request of any pri
vate citizen.
The Berka bill memorializes con
gress to pass a federal censorship
bill. '

to require that such societies have a

members. '

Lincoln, March 10 (Special.)
Charges that Omaha was trying to
foist 2,000 acres of the Fontenelle
forest near Bcllevue on the state
wore made by Senator H. C. Beebe
of Polk in a fight on S. F. 189,
creating a state park board author
ized to lay out a park program, in
the senate committee of the whole
Thursday morning.
The committee by a vote pf 15 to
14 recommended the, bill for post
ponement, but Senator Robbins of
Douglas, introducer, got the bill ad
vanced on a motion nSt to concur
in the report.
Davis, Good and Brown change
their votes to naw the bill to go to
thifd reading. Senator Hoagland
voted against postponement, reserv
ing the right to change his vote on
third reading.
Senator Beebe charged that the bill
also sought to create a useless board
to do the work now being handled
by Director George A. Condra of
the state conservation and soil sur
vey bureau.
The Douglas county delegation,
he said, had even taken control over
forestration from Dr. Condra in a
proposed bill, S. F. 272. Senator
Cooper defended this bill with the
explanation that it was drafted by
Colonel McCttllough of the Omaha
Bee, who had made a study of the
situation.
Senator Robbins argued that his
bill carried no apropriation and
would not be expensive. Senator
Dutton 'bought that a nonpaid board
might be too easily influenced by a
cordial municipality.
Lobby Controversy
Taken Out of Senate
Lincoln, March 10. (Special.)
At the request of W. E. Barkley,
Senator Miller 'on the. floor of the
senate Thursday asked leave to with
draw a resolution he and Senator
Rickard introduced Wednesday to
give Mrs. Barkley a vote of con
fidence following charges made the
day before on the floor by Senator
Hoagland that she had made mis
statements to discredit certain sena
tors. Unanimous consent was grantc d .
Neither Senator Hoagland nor Mrs.
Barkley were in the chamber at the
time. Senator Miller said the reso
lution would only stir up feeling and
would not serve the best interests
of the senate.
Mrs. Barkley had been character-
! ized by Senator Hoagland and Sena
tor Beebe as a lady lobbyist. She
had been present in the senate cham
ber daily for two weeks in the in
terest of the standard bread loaf."
Her alleged charge that Senator
HoaaJand was fighting the bill
brought the clash.
Welfare Committee .
Loses First Round of
Censorship Fight
x Lincoln, March "0. (Special.)
A strategic maneuver to force the
senate to record itself on the child
welfare movie censorship bill, S. F.
78, failed in the committee of the
whole Thursday, when the opposi
tion seized on the excuse of having
no printed amendments before it to
put the bill over.
Seventeen senators voted to lay
the matter over, on a motion by
Senator Beebe. Senator Hastings,
chairman of the child welfare com
mittee, had arranged for a special
order on the bill.
The senate was determined to have
nothing to do with the bill until the
house had first threshed out the
censorship bills in that body. It was !
the hope of the bill advocates to j
force the issue in the senate, in
order to simplify the house contro
versy by the moral effect of senate
action. '

President Harding's backbone, his refusal to be dictated to by any clique or faction within
his party, is demonstrated to the Satisfaction of many journalistic observers by his first official
act, the selection of Ms Cabinet. Noting that three outstanding figures, Mr. Hughes as Secretary of
State, Mr Hoover as Secretary of Commerce, and Mr. Wallace as Secretary of Agriculture, were
chosen in the face of formidable opposition, the independent New York Weekly Review thinks
that "the time has come when one may regard the charge that Mr. Harding was a mere puppet
in the hands of j the 'Senatorial clique as definitely disproved." The New i York Evening Mail
(Injd.) 'thmks that it is "a Cabinet that spells America, about as accurately as any other group of
men likely to be gathered around a President's council-table." On the other hand the Omaha
WDrld-Herald (In,d.) says that the Harding Cabinet innouncements "dilute, to the Volsteadian
measure of one-half of one per cent, the lively hopes that were aroused wrhen we were assured
that a Republican Administration would rally the best minds of the country to the public serv
ice." The Philadelphia North American (Progressive) says that "It would be an extravagance to
call the new Cabinet great, but no less absurd to assume that it is not capable of good service."
' ' THfe LITERARY DIGEST this week, March 12th, iirtts leading article presents all angles of
public opinion upon the strength and weakness j of the Harding Cabinet, and gives a brief
