. The first half of the Gipsy Smith
revival campaign came to a close
Friday night at the Auditorium with
a splendid meeting for the young
folk of the city. In the first two
weeks of the campaign, young and
old alike have become intensely in
terested in the revival and "back to
the church" movement which has
been led by Gipsy Smith, the mes
senger of Christ on five continents
and a religious worker for 35 years.
All church and campaign officials
express satisfaction at the progress
the revival has made!
Few Mistakes Made.
"There is always a certain amount
of ground work and preliminary
. struggle that must be gone through
in a movement of this kind before
it begins to shape its course and run
smoothly," the Rev. Titus Lowe said
in commenting on the revival.
"The plans we had settled on nec
essarily had to be changed at times
to meet unexpected circumstances
and as we were all inexperienced in
a work of this magnitude, we had
to make a few mistakes before we
could learn many important things.
Preliminaries Are Over.
"We have got over all the pre
liminary work and the next two
weeks will go off with a bang," the
minister said.
Gipsy Smith and his corps' of re
ligious workers are of the same opin
ion, namely that the next two
weeks of the campaign will see
rcarlfpit riniicps .arli nicrrir anil ffinii.
sands rededicated to Christ's work. A
The raising of the campaign bud
get from $15,000 to $18,000 was one
of the important things done last
wri.:"v2 As was first announced the
expenseVof bringing the Smith party
and of liie revivaLnvas placed'at
$15,000. The wpf kers announced
that when this money was collected
there would be no more collections.
. Last week the amount was raised
to $18,000 and the additional $3,000
will be used when the main revival
has been finished, to carry on an in
tensive "follow-up" campaign in the
churches and among those ' who
signed pledge cards of rededication.
The whole plan of the follow-up
campaign will bring as many people
' back to the church as possible. .Al
ready more than $10,000 of the
money has been pledged.
Influence Not Local.
Another interesting feature has de
veloped and that is, the influence
of the revival is not local. Many
persons who have their homes in
adjacent states have come to the
meetings and have signed pledge
cards. These cards are to be for
' warde.d to pastors in the signers'
home town. Then too many; Oma
hails who have an intense interest
in the revival have " been sending
daily papers to friends in all parts of
the country.
Gipsy Smith said not long ago,
"The Omaha papers are .splendid.
They are doing a great work in their
aid of the campaign. I have had
many letters from personal friends
who have received papers. I have
also sent out many and they have
brought replies. My friends see me,
in the reports of the meetings."
The noonday meetings, which
started off with just a fair atten
dance, in the past week have gained
more fav6r and all last Week, irt
spite of bad weather for two days,
the Brandeis theater was a worship
ping place for the business men and
women who came to hear of God,
if for only five minutes. The collec
tions taken at these meetings, in
comparison to the big meeting, have
been much larger. -
Choir's Work Splendid.
The big choir of almost 1.000
voices under the leadership of "Wee
Willie" McEwan has been doing
Splendid work the past two weeks
and is really one of the features of
the revival. The splendid thing of
it all is that the singers are all Oma
ha men and women. The revival will
uncover a host of musical talent that
heretofore was unknown. It has
demonstrated that Omaha has the
talent to sing any of the oratorios or
cantatas which require a large
chorus. J. Edward Carnal is re
sponsible mostly for the organiza
tion of the choir. Something worth
while in ensemble singing may re
sult from the excellent chorus which
has been organizqd. ,
Young people's night, Friday ot
each week, will also result in the
organization of a young people's
union, according to the Rev, Titus
Lowe, for the purpose of perpetu
ating the friendships made among
the young people during the revivals.
It has. been many years since the
young people hive turned out in
such large numbers to any religious
services.

Sinn Fein Demand
Revision on Ulster
Hopes for Final Settlement of
Peace in Ireland! Improving
Next Meeting Tuesday.
By JOHN STEELE.
Chlca.ro Thlbun Cable, Copyright ig?l
London, Oct. 30. I have learnod
that the government is ndw in pos
session of the Irish demands which
Prime Minister Lloyd George , in
sisted on having after Eamonn de
Valera's telegram to Pope Benedict
brought matters to a crisis. It is
stated that sovereignty is not men
tioned, thus by impication surren
dering that demand, but the main
demand is for the revision of Ulster's
position. ,
I he Sinn baa asks that either
Ulster consent to Come into united
Ireland or to agree to a plebiscite
for the revision of its boundaries.
Under such an arrangement Ulster
would be sure to lose Tyrone and
Fermanagh. The government's chief
difficulty ih agreeing to a plebiscite
is the fact that there is a solid block
of Protestants in thi center of Tyr-i
one. while in the( east and west the
county is Catholic,
There will be no further meeting
Of the conference until Tuesday and
in the meantime hopes for the final
success are improving. LoydS is in
suring the risk of a general election
before the end of the year at 40
per cent which means 6 to 4 against
a general election. As a general
election only is possible if the con
ference breaks down, these opinions
reflect the best opinion ' on the
chances of success.
There is a revival of the fear that
Mr. Lloyd George may not be able
to get away ntxt Saturday for Wash
ington, hut he is still determined to
go if possible and in any case he will
go later. During . the prime minis
ter's absence Arthur J. Balfour will
act as chief of the British delegation.

Forbids Union
IMen to Strike
U. S. "Wage Commission An
nounces That Any Workers
Who Walk Out Will Be
Considered as Outlaws.
By Tba Associated tress. '
Chicago, Oct 30. The United
States railroad labor board, in ef
fect, forbade railroad union labor
from striking without the board's
permission and " declared that all
strikers who violated the order would
be Classed as outlaws who had voU
unarily removed themselves from the
protection ot the transportation act
The labor board, after detailing the
decision of both sides to abide by
the Jaw, says, tnese tacts render it
unnecessary for the board to make
any further Orders on or about this
mattef and move it tb congratulate
the parties directly interested and
the public, most vitally and pro
foundly interested, on this return
to industrial peace, triumph of the
reign of law and the escape from this
national disaster - "
Makes Position Clear.
"But at this time the board deems
it expedient and proper to makets
rulings and position on some of the
points involved so clear that no,
ground for any misunderstanding can
hereaf tef exist. .
First, when anv chanares of
wages, contracts or rules previously
in effect are contemplated or pro
posed by either party, conference
must be had as directed by the trans
portation act and by rules or deci
sions of procedure promulgated by
the board, and where agreements are
not reached the dispute must be
brought before this board, and no
action taken or change made until
authorized by the board. ,
Decision Violated.
"Second, the ordering or authorix
ing of a strike against decision num
ber 147 (the July 1 wage cut) of tis
board is a violation of that decision.
The board desires to ooint out such
overt acts by either party tending to
and threatening an interruption of
the transportation lines, the peaceful
and - uninterrupted operations of
which are so absolutely necessary to
the' peace, prosperity and safety ol
the entire people, are in themselves,
even when they do not culminate in
a stoppage of traffic, a cause and
source of great injury and damage.

'.'The board further points out for
the consideration of employes inter
ested, that when such action does
result in a strike the organization so
acting has forfeited its rights and
the rights of its members in and to

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Cfelcasto TrtbaMHOmatia Bt JUaMd Wire.
Chicago, Oct 30. The wheat sit
uation is a two-sided . affair with
statistics as bullish as it is possible
to make them. ' New export buying
is light, receipts are falling off and
elevators are well stocked with grain.
Those who are basing their opera
tions on statistics are figuring on a
reduction in stocks in the near fu
ture. The theory is that when
stocks commence to decrease specu
lation will come into the market in
sufficient volume to advance prices
and that the turning point is almost
at hand.
A point made by close students
of speculative conditions does not
present as bullish a situation as the
statistics indicate. It is true that
our surplus has been largely ex
ported and on the theory that wheat
is ft domestic proposition and will
be scarce later. the question is: Will
speculative buying be strong enough
to carry prices higher and hold the
advance? We have had six years
of bullish conditions. Light . sup
plies and cash premiums have made
it easy to advance prices. Usually
after such an extended period of
high prices, bearish conditions pre
dominate. . How long the latter will
last is problematical. The entire
question seems to concentrate on the
extent of the volume of speculative
buying that can be developed.

Japs Announce
Stand at World
Arms Conference
Will Not Plead Ovfr-Popul
tion as Necessity for Ex
pansion on Asiatic
Mainland.
By ARTHUR SEARS HENNINO.
ChsMfl Tribes 0 to Dm Iaw Wlro,
Washington, Oct. 30. The first
disclosure of the policy to be pur
sued by the Japanese delegation at
the conference on the limitation of
armaments is that Japan will not
plead over-population as a necesity
tor expansion on the Asiatic main
land.
The neceiiltv of obtaining the en
larged supply of raw material and
other resources that will enable
Japan to become an industrial na
tion will be put forward in explana
tion of the extension of Japanese
power and interests in China and of
the measures adopted as the means
to the end.
In taking this stand, the Japanese
have cut the ground from under
their American friends who have
been contending for years that Japan
is crowded to the point of suffoca
tion, that Japan, therefore, must be
allowed to spread to the mainland
and that the more of an outlet Japan
finds for its population in China and
Siberia the less pressure there will be
ol Japanese emigration to America.
Must Find Solution.
The trouble with this theory Is
that it failed to stand up under
scrutiny of, the facts. The density
of population, it appears, is no
greater than in England and Bel
gium and with southern Manchuria
and Korea under Japanese control for
nearly 20 years, fewer than 500,000
Japanese have emigrated thereto.
True it is that the arable land of
Japan is densely peopled. Surplus
population, however, is not attract
ed to the mainland because the Ja
panese are unable to compete suc
cessfully with the Chinese and Kor
eans. Hence, Japan must find some
other solution of the surplus popu
lation problem.
To transform Japan from a chief
ly agricultural to a chiefly indus
trial nation is the solution to which
the Tokio government is now ad
dressing itself. But Japan is poor in
the coal, iron and other raw mate
rials needed to build up an indus
trial nation. China is rich in such
resources and to China Japan turns
for these necessities.
Problem Complicated.
Of course, it appears from the
views of the Japanese, it is not fea
sible to obtain such materials in the
ordinary course of trade. Conces
sions to develop mines must be ob
tained and also political control of
such districts granted by one Chi
nese government would be abrogat
ed by another or local disturbances
would interfere with operations.
In obtaining political control of
portions of China for the purpose of
protecting the development of re
sources, Japan falls foul of the nu
merous pledges to preserve the territorial-
integrity, of China, which
it, like other powers, has given
That will be the stumbling block to
the Japanese aims in the confer
ence. In the 21 demands, Japan was
found to have designed Jo make a
political dependency of China.
To what extent also Japanese aims
trench upon the open-door principle
is another question that will engage
the attention of the contcrence. Ja
panese operations in Manchuria al
ready have aroused much complaint
on this score.
