IIIBBIflimB TO SERVE 'A L t. YOU Omaha Youth, Rhodes Scholar, Writes That Aus tria "Want Friendship Of Americans. No one knows the full significance of that part of the Lord's prayer: "Give us this day our daily bread " until he has spent one day in Vienna. So writes raul B. Means, Rhodes student from Nebraska to his par ents, Mr. nd Mrs. Edgar L. feans, 502 South Thirty-sixth street, from the Hotel Harmonic, in Vienna, where he went with other Oxford students a month ago. lie is a theological student, for merly from Orleans, Neb., where his father served on the school board. Students Suffer. University students and professors and other middle classmen with small incomes are the chief sufferer from under-nourishment, he writes. "They carry on their studies only he means of the relief which comes from America and English organiza tions and the Society of Friends.'.' His Karopean travel in the war famine area has given the young Ne braskan a new point of view on the war, he writes. It forwards tolerance of enemies and makes one advocate international disarmament. "The horrors of war worked on the economic life of central Europe are enough to make one feel that pacttism is me oniy logical pusuiuu to adopt," he wrote. Cultured People. ' "I think the virtue of forgiveness and brotherhood has never had a finer chance to be practised than to day on the part of the allies and America with Germany and Austria. From our experiences with German and Austrian people on the train "and in hotels I should say they are as courteous, as cultured and as fine as any class of people generally. They are not of the bbche or hun type-we had been led to expect because of our war cartoons and war propa ganda, but really cultured and friendly people. "I have been many times impressed how they rcljy appreciate our friend ship. . V1- :" ' ::V ." "In contrast to this I though of the prejudice which exists in Eng land and America against the so called 'bodies' and how- we would treat them if they made a similar trip in our country. V - Sees Danger. "I am - convinced,' for the. hatred, which this -war hats erigenered, for the lives lost and mutilated, for the whole numbers of people whose lives have been, stunted from famine con ditions and for thVdisarrangement of economic, social and intellectual life of the .warring 'Countries, that was is hell and an almost futile way to set tle international differences.

While indicating the . man might have been a crank, the police, who removed chemicals and anarchist lit erature from La Sar's room; threw a veil of secrecy over the investiga tion. ' ' i. The police were reticent concern ing the "confession note" in w-hich La Sar was said to have stated he in tended to commit suicide because the police were on his trail. Search by detectives from the homicide bureau revealed La Sar had left several letters addressed to per sons in Chicago and other cities. The contents were not made public, but the police indicated they thought he was demented. Several letters, it was said, railed against capitalists. Four cigar boxes containing chem icals, besides several bottles of acid, were found in the room, with maps of the United States and other countries.
