THIS BEE: OMAHA. FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1921. Compromise Plan Of Stillmans Is Declared Halted Pszanowski Becomes Head of Motor Squad Hearings in Suit Will Be Re eumed Next Wednesday Alienation Suit to Be Filed Against Mrs. Leeds. New York, May 26. Hearings in the divorce suit brought by James A Stillnian, millionaire banker against Mrs. Anne U. Stillnian, will be re sumed next Wednesday before Ref eree D. G. Gleason. at Poughkeepsie. This announcement, mad by one of Mrs. Stillnian's attorneys today was taken as an indication that the settlement negotiations said to have been inaugurated by counsel for the banker had halted. Refusal of Mrs. Stillnian to comply with her hus band's demand that she live abroad for five years after the suit had been withdrawn was reported to be the reason for this action. Another con dition, alleged to have been imposed by Mrs. Stilhuan's attorneys was that she give her consent for' the children to choose between their parents. This, it is said, she has declined to do. Mr. Stillnian's offer is reported to Viave included the withdrawal of his suit, legal recognition of the legit imacy of the infant, Guy Stillnian. whose paternity has been questioned in the proceedings and the granting of an allowance of between $50,000 and $90,000 a year to Mrs. Stillnian. Will Force Charges. Unless the banker agrees to an "unconditional surrender" before Wednesday Mrs. Stillnian will turn loose three broadsides against the defense of the former bank president as follows: A $500,000 alienation of affection'; suit against Mrs. Florence H. Leads, former "chicken on the Cen 'tury roof," and alleged affinity of the former bank president. Ask the indictment of Stillnian and Mrs. Leeds by the grand jury, charging that they lived together as man and wife in this city. Start an action for absolute di vorcc, naming Stillnian as the father of Jay iWard Leeds. Mrs. Stillman Determined. . Mrs. Stillnian. it is understood, is determined to carry on the battle cgainst her husband with all the in strumcnts at her command unless he meets her terms as outlined in her ultimatum. She will meet her husband's ef forts to brand her Son, Guy, with he mark of illegitimacy with a .rotital attack. She will charge her husband with being the father of not only Jay Ward Leeds but of at least one. other infant. She is determined, it is said, to acquire a divorce but she is also determined to secure it in New York state. Her husband's tentative proposal of a compromise settlement contained the stipulation that she should go to Paris and file suit for divorce at the end of a f.e year interval. "I could wish Mr. Stillnian and Mrs. Leeds no greater misfortune tltfin to be mated to each other." Mrs. Stillman has said to friends. "I intend to leave Mr. Stillmai. free to do the decent thing and marry he woman he has degraded." Mrs. Leeds Stirred. It is understood that Mrs. Still man's contemplated actions have reached the ears of Mrs. Leeds and that she has decided to take steps to establish legally the fatherhood of her son in order that he may be pro tected financially. It is understood that Mrs. Still nian's bitterness towards the former chorus girl is enhanced by the al leged continuation of the banker's lavish gifts to Mrs.' Leeds, In the meantime Mrs. Stillman has said to friends: "I'd rather wash dishes in Quids' than be forced to leave America even though I am to be given $90, 000 a year and thorough and sweep ing vindication . both for my baby and myself."

Mrs. Cass said she had just put her automo bile in the, garage, adjacent to her home when her assailant stepped out of a doorway in an apartment house and seized her by the arm. "Let me go," Mrs. Cass said she screamed, at which her assailant seized her by both arms. She tore from his grip, the woman said, and shot three times with a pistol she carries. A police riot squad answered the report sent in by neighbors who gathered and Mrs. Cass was taken to police headquarters where she made a statement. She later was released in her hus band's custody.

OVEN BAKE with Tomato Sauce Yes, you detect it at once that delicious flavor and tang of Heinz famous Tomato Sauce. , It is made of choice, fresh, sun ripened tomatoes, perfectly spiced and seasoned and used exclusively in the spotless Heinz'kitchens. , But the supreme goodness of Heinz Baked Beans is the blending of this distinctive taste with the real bean flavor that oven baking gives. The Heinz method of actually baking in dry heat ovens re tains the food value of beans as well as the flavor. These things . mean food economy. Heinz Oven Baked Beans aro all ready to eathot or cold.

It is based on the securing of the Capital Award of the $7,800.00 Home and the first of the Special Ad ditional Awards, the $1,625.00 Overland Sedan. , Still a $50,000.00 a year rate of pay means so little in the lives of the average Help Yourself Club members that they have gone to "sleep at the switch," are throwing their possibilities away and permitting brand new members to come in and pass them on the road as swiftly as our $4,440.00 Cadillac will fcfiss a horse-drawn vehicle. Look at that list of awards $29,450.00 of it. Look at the standing of members as shown on page 4. Compare the small lists with the large awards.

Hard and consistent work is the only element to be considered. ; With the equivalent of a $50,000.00 salary, the opportunity still open to new members to secure two awards and the lack of interest displayed by many present members, a great many more people should seize this opportunity. . The only requirement is that you should turn in subscriptions to The Bee. If you doubt your ability to do.it, just go out and try. Ask some of your friends to give you a helping hand to win a valuable award. You will be surprised to find how many folks want to subscribe for The Bee. Then, having demonstrated it to your satisfaction, send in your subscriptions and your nomination blank. Your nec essary supplies will be sent you at once.

Notes for Members and Non-Members From the records of the Campaign Manager's Office showing: that a subscription is received once in a while it ap pears some of the members are laboring under the mistaken idea that somebody else is going to do all the work for them. Keep in mind the fact that the same person can win a Special Additional Award of an automobile and also one of the regular awards. Would not it have felt fine on those' hot evenings to have been able to climb into our own little "Bus" and gone for a cool-off? There are twelve beautiful cars in the list of awards. Keep in mind the three ways subscriptions count right now regular votes, extra votes and cash subscriptions towards the Special Additional Awards. Will you have the satisfaction of having what you want in early life or will you wait until old age for the good things? There are nine Maxwell Touring Cars. One of them will go to the person in each of the nine districts having the largest score of votes, after the winners of th capital awards have been eliminated. You may delay, but time will not The one who will win the Capital Award is one who has made a resolution, and is keeping it, that each day and every day will see more votes placed to their credit. That big Cadillac Is a $4,440.00 7-passenger touring car, complete in every detail She's one of those big "busses" that eat up the road and ride like a Pullman on the Overland Express. How much have you been making a year? One would think that $50,000.00 a year was just pin money to some of the H. Y. S. Club members. There are no losers in the H. Y. S. Club campaign. All members who fail to secure an award will, if they have turned in $50.00 or more, receive a cash commission. You are not restricted to any certain territory in your work. Wotk where you please but if you . want an award work., Spur your friends on transmit to them some of the en thusiasm you yourself possess, Remind them of the rides they will enjoy with you at the wheel. You are offering something worth while when you offer a friend the opportunity to subscribe for The Bee. It it the only morning paper in Nebraska with more than one leased wire service. The Bee has three. That's why The Bee is the most newsy paper. The market page of The Bee has no par allel in the state. Business men all know this and these are two of the reasons The Bee is always found on the breakfast table of the big, successful business man. Where The Bee is concerned there's more than one reason. In determining where we stand in the campaign let us remember the way these awards are to be made: FIRST The Capital Awards will go to the three members securing the greatest total number of votes during the entire campaign. SECOND The Special Additional Awards of two auto mobiles, the Overland Sedan and the Gardner Touring, will go to the city member and the country member securing the largest amount of cash subscriptions during the period from May 1 6th to June 4th. THIRD The District Awards of one Maxwell automobile, one $200.00 Conservative Building .and Loan Deposit and one $100.00 Conservative Building and Loan Deposit will be given to the three members securing the largest total number of votes during the entire campaign in each and every one of the nine districts. FOURTH Every member who does not get one 6f the Capital or District or Special Additional Awards, but who se cures a total in subscriptions of fifty dollars or more will get a cash commission of ten per cent on every dollar sent in. r Campaign Close June 25th, 1S21 1 The Omaha Bee Help Yourself Club Not bo'oiI after Jtnt 3, 1CJ1. befor. eviration date.
