MEN FROM NEUTRAL COUNTRIES
POURING INTO GREAT BRITAIN
Taking WeII-Paid Positions Left BY

London, March 27.-Under the
heading Neutral Job-snatchers' the
Daily Mail complains that young men
from neutral countries are pouring in
to Great Britain and taking well-paid
positions left by Britons who hope to
return to them after the war.
A private in the Royal Field Artil-

are allowed to come here without let
or hindrance2 Surely British women
are capable of filling our places while
we are away, and disabled soldiers are

Nebraska Primaries TODAY.

LINCOLN. Nebr., April 1o.-Spring
rains over eastern Nebraska aided in
bringing out the farmer vote at the
Nebraska primaries today. With the
weather suitable for field work. many
farmers were expected to let their
toll keep them from taking part in
the selection of candidates, but with
rainy weather on they were able to
go to the towns to vote. While there
is no way to get a lineup on the vot-
ing up to this time, it is believed
that fairly large primary vote will
be cast, considera BILE interest having
been aroused over the United States
senatorship and gubernatorial con-
tests. The polls opened at s a. M,
and will not close until p. m. AS
the ballots are long the counting will
be slow and difficult. Few returns
are expected to be in before morning
and it may be days in the close con-
tests before the results are known.

PRESIDENTS FINAL
NOTE TO GERMANY
CONTINUED from page ~

diately. The president has thus far
not requested conference with Chair
man Stone and Flood of the senate
and house foreign relations commit
tees and none is in sight.
Yesterday afternoon the president
was ready for this conference, but it
could not be arranged satisfactorily
and today it is understood he was mot
yet ready to see congressional lead
ers.
No light on whit the Undetermined
elements" are was obtainable. Wheth-
er they have to do with items in the
evidence or with the language of the
communication Is in doubt. It is pos
sible that final wording of the docu-
ment awaits the conference between
Ambassador Won Bernstorff and Sec
rotary Lansing this afternoon. That
Bernstorff, who has been reported in
press dispatches to have received
fresh instructions from his govern
ment, may inject some new light on
the situation which might altar the
course Of this governments action,
was also considered possible. although
some officials stated they could see
no reason why the communication
should not be on the cables by night.
Another element which has entered
the case is found in dispatches from
Ambassador Gerard at Berlin who has
forwarded to the state department full
details of the feeling in Germany as
indicated by the press of that coun-
try.
Dispatches from Berlin today indi.
Gated that the Won Tirpitz element in
the reichstag, for some time quiet.
threatens to break out should the
German government feel disposed to
moderate it's U boat policy, to conform
more with what the United States
demands.
There is strong belief, however, that
the German communication will be on
its way within at least twenty-four
hours.

CANDY EASTER EGGS
KILL TWO CHILDREN
Little Ones Died Soon After Eating
Gifts Which are Thought to Have
Contained Poison.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April IS
Whether candied Easter eggs eaten
by Herbert and Roy Meyers, four and
three years old, caused their sudden
death, was the subject of a searching
investigation today by Coroner Poole.
Aid of the state chemist was enlisted.
The coroner placed little faith in the
belief of some that the brilliant dyes
contained poison, but believes poison
must have been placed in the eggs.
The parents, Mr.. and Mrs. William A.
Meyers hold to this story.
The little brothers died within fif-
teen minutes after eating the Easter
candy which was given them by their
grandmother.
Mamma, I can't stand up" said
Herbert, and died within few min
utes in his mothers arms.
Papa, T can't get WE'LL said Roy,

These were the only words uttered
by the children after they were strick-

DES MONIES, Iowa, April 1S.-Mr
and Mrs. Ben Dudi, brought here from
Minneapolis on a murder charge.
have been released and Des Moines
has a real murder mystery.
When a six weeks old baby was
found on dump, neighbors remem-
bered that the Dudfs who had just
gone to Chicago had neglected their
baby and identified the dead child as
theirs. The Dudi's were brought
back, said they never saw the dead
baby before and that their child had
died in Minneapolis. The police ridi-
culed this statement until Coroner
Rooms went to Minneapolis, dug UP
the dead baby and discovered that
the Dudi's were telling the truth.
Rooms said the two babies greatly re-
sembled each other. Now that the
Dudps have been released, the police
are facing a greater murder mystery
than ever Where did the Des Moines
baby come from? The only clue is
the rumble of wagon driven near
the dump at midnight the night be-
fore the body was discovered.

Mr.. Forman had been employed at
the Hotel Iowa for the past year as
checker in the basement, and pantry
man. His home is in Trenton, N. J.
His eyesight has been failing for
some time. he told reporter who
visited him at his room this morning.
Il had noticed in the past that my
eyes were failing me-" he remarked,
but l believed that everything
would be all right again in short
time. I became worse, however, and
few days ago 4 knew that my con-
dition was serious. l worked on but
since yesterday have been unable to
leave my room. My sight is not en-
tirely gone yet. for 1 can still see
very family. 1t was the run down
condition Of my nervous system and
body that caused it,
Mr. Forman has not given up hope.
He intends to go to his home the
latter part of this week, and he thinks
that with the right kind of care, in
time, he will regain his now almost
lost sight. He intends to make the
journey alone if his condition I'M
proves, otherwise he will send for

Hartford Courant: A southern edi.
tor recently drew a graphic pen pic.
ture on the editorial page of his
newspaper of what the weekly visit
of his fathers favorite newspaper
meant to that home in central Geor-
gia in the old days. The father OF
the man who wrote the article use,,
to sit late into the night going Over
the columns of the paper, that had
brought light and comfort to tha
HON. far away from the cen.ers of
population. The lessons drawn in
this little sermon on the general in
fluence and value of newspapers in a
home are as applicable to northern
audience as to the one in Georgia.
The paper arrived on a Saturday
afternoon and its coming was looked
forward to with the keenest pleasure
and interest. After the supper was
over, the father took the small week
ly journal and read every word of it
to his family, commenting on the diff
ferent articles and digesting the
whole affair, advertisements and all,
before he allowed the members of his
family to go to their beds. The
mother sat knitting, the writer of the
editorial piled wood on the fire, the
cat dppedIeu W StJUy the spectacle
from a distance, and the paper there
fore nodded the opinions Of the
whole family-cat and all.
All this applies to the daily visit
of a newspaper into the homes of
Connecticut today A newspaper can
not enter a home every day in the
year without leaving it's impression;
influences are started there by that
newspaper that are liable to remain
through life in the minds and in the
actions of those who read it. The
life current of the people who com e
under it's ministrations, whether they
be old or young. are always liable to
be changed by this silent visitor. No
one could make those regular visits,
as does newspaper, without leav-
ing an impression on the persons in
the home; and the newspaper prob
ably moids public opinion at the pres
ent day as it did in Georgia back in
1870 more than any other agency.
1t is not surprising, therefore, that
family that has read any one news
paper for many years should feel the
greatest affection for it. inhale the
spirit of its policies, hold a friendly
attitude towards it's utterances, and
continually consider it the most well

Fifth Indictment


WASHINGTON, April 1S--The
fifth man indicted yesterday in the
Welland canal plot case in New York
was Captain Won Papen's secretary.
a German named Won lyle, with Of
fees in New York. Justice depart
ment agents were preparing to arrest
him today.
Won lyle is handling Captain Won
Papen's affairs in this country. List
ed among the affairs the United
States will claim was the handling Of
the loose ends of the plot to blow up
lyle, it is charged, has handled per-
sonally all of Captain Won Papen's
correspondence in the. alleged plot.
He has been the go-between, the de-
partment claims, in every important
activity with which Won Papen has
been connected.
The state department gave its con-
sent to the Indictment of Won Papen,
it was understood today The state
department view is understood TO
have been taken after consideration
of delicate points involved. The
principal question Is whether as Cap
tain Won Papen was immune from
prosecution while he was in this
country. he would not also be inn
mune from future prosecution for
acts committed during his stay here.
The state department decided the
immunity covered only his. stay in
this country. The indictment will
remain imperative and probably will
not be acted on, even If Won Papen
came back to the United States. But
it will permit greater freedom by the
government in the prosecution of the
cases in which Won Papen Is alleged
to have had hand.
