at Nebraska City, Cedar Rapids, la.,
and Albert Lee, Minn. These in

son company.
The news that a strike order had
been issued was received quietly in
Omaha. -.-'.
Union officials are going quietly
about the work of arranging details
for the strike and have warned the
men. to walk out orderly and refrain
from all violence when the time
comes. Packing house superin
tendents expressed themselves as
confident that a Sufficient number of
their workers would remain on the
job to enable them to operate their
plants as usual.
Plan Finish Fight
According to President Davis the
men have long been under paid and
the coming strike will be a finish
fight between capital and labor.

crafts employed in the packing in
dustry, will involve afcout 45,000
workers in IS cities, according to
Cornelius Hayes, - president of the
butcher workmen's union, in making
the announcement in Chicago.
"It has been our experience in
past strikes that the majority of the
non-union, men walk out with the
union men," said Hayes. "In that
event fully 60,000 nieii may be af
fected." - .
The strike is called' as a protest
against a reduction of wages averag
ing 10 per ceht, which became effec
tive last1 Monday in the Armour,

Japanese Favor Pact
With United States
(Continued From Togo One.)
les reauiriiiflr the submission of all
disputes without exception to arbi
tral adjustment.
The Ans-lo-Japanese alliance con
tains a provision that neither party
shall be obligated to go to tne de
fense of the other against a nation
with which it has a general arbitra
tion treaty. Although the Knox
treaty failed, Great Britain notihea
Japan that the Bryan treaty would
be construed as a general arbitration
treaty so far as the terms of the
alliance were concerned.
This meant that Great Britain
would not be oblieated to take up
arms against the United Mates in
the event of war between America
and Japan. Britain, however, would
be . obliged to remain neutral and
this is the extent of the measure of
nrotection which 'the alliance rco-
resents to Japan and which Japan
would be willing to forego if a gen
eral arbitration treatv were conclud
ed between America and Nippon.
A rumor circulated this morning
that Admiral Baron Kato and Prince
Tokucawa of the Taoanese deleca
tion to the conference would leave
Washington for Japan December IS,
was emphatically denied by a repre
sentative of the Japanese delegation.

Dime in Priest's Pants Leads to Belief
He'd Been Struck by Shrapnel in France
"It must be a piece of .hrapnel,"
said a young woman, one of the at
tendants in the office of. Dr.; Wil
liam H. Mick, roentgenarian,.' 721
Brandeis building, as she held up an
X-ray. photographic plate to the
light, and addressed the Rev. Eu
gene Feeney, pastor of the Catholic
church of Auburn, Neb. '
The reverend father, who had
been a chaplain in the United States
army and had been hurt in answer
ing a midnight call at the Vesles
front, in France, in a motorcycle
misnap, Had been ordered to Omaha
for physical examination by the war
risk insurance bureau.
In order to determine the nature
of a growth on one of his' knees
caused by the accident, the father
had to have the injured menlber X-
rayed and when the plate was de
veloped a metallic substance ahowed,
"It cannot be shrapnel," said the
father, "for I was not under fire at
the time I was hurt." A close ex
amination of the foreign substance
was made by Dr. Mick and after a
few minutes he solved the mystery.
Tshere was a hole in the pocket of
the priestly trousers and a dime had
slipped down to the point where
the injury to his knee was shown.
When the matter was explained to
Father Feeney, he heaved a sigh of
relief as he remarked: It is a sad
state of things when it takes an
Omaha specialist and a powerful X
rav machine to discover a piece of
money on the person of a servant of
the Lord."

Fremont, Neb.,' Dec. 2. (Special)
"Vou might just as well be living
in Germany as in your present condi
tion in Nebraska.' was the advice
given here by Judge Waldo Winter
steen to Carl, William and Otto Al
berta, who apfred in court object
ing to the probate of their father's
will, sarin that althongh born in
tliU cotHity tliere are able to read
Only the German language and knew
nothing of the actlou taken.
. The father, August Albert, left 240
acres, to be divided equally among
ax younger brothers. He be
queathed $1,500 to each of the three
older brothers and two sisters. The
sisters are satisfied, but the three
biotlieis claim that the division is
uufair. ' ,
On of the two younger brothers,;
who gets 120 acres of Dodge county ,
land, was the only son of live to
take part in the world war. As a i
soldier of Uncle -ani he spent two
years in lhe service and is a sur
vivor cf the Argonne. During his
experiences iu the Argonne woods
he atftl seven other soWicrs became
detached from their company. They
were surrounded by the enemy and
before aid could . arrive, all but two
were killed.
For this reason, one of the sisters
explained, the father left hi in a share
of the land, "because Herman fought
to save the world while the other
sons stayed home to make money."
CarL William and Otto willingly
admitted that they were unable to
read or write the American lan
guage. They also admitted that a
Ocrman newspaper was the only
nie.ee of literature that entered thtir
home, lhe brothers testifmd that
they had reached the fourth grade
in a parochial school in this county
and for a short time were students
at a public school. But the English
language has left them, thy say, al-
tiwugli they never departed lrom
Dodae couuty. Thus they explained
their failure to read the notice of the
probating of the wilt published in
a Fremont newspaper.
Herman Alberts attended School
in' Fremont and later became a stu
dent at the Fremont college, shortly
before entering the service.
