FACTS ABOUT WAR ORDERS.

Now that the national campaign is
over and the particular reasons for
suppressing the facts no longer exist,
perhaps the Wilson administration
will unqualifedly admit the facts re-
trial prosperity. There is no disput-
ing the figures, which can be re-
obtained by consultation of the official
reports of the Department of Com
merce. These statistics show that I'M
der normal Republican tariff legisla
ton in a time of peace our exports of
- classes of commodities that are
needed in the successful waging of
modern warfare amounted to 1884,
100000 in a ten months period, while
in a corresponding period under De-
mocratic tariff law, before the war,
these exports decreased to $500, 000,-
0G0, while in the corresponding ten
months under the influence of war or
ders exports of these same commodi-
ties increased to 81, 800, 100000. That
was more than double the exports in
the preceding ten months under the
Democratic administration free from
the influence of war. That same de-
mand for our products at enormous
prices has continued for two years and
two months. Up to the close of the
campaign. the administration was I'M
willing to expressly admit the full
effect of war orders. but now that
nothing is to be lost by giving the
truth to the American people for their
guidance in shaping economic policies,
perhaps the Administration will ac-
knowledge the facts.

over coal burning vessels that it
would be practically suicidal from
military point of view for the Navy
Department to abandon the policy Of
building oil burning ships; but the
demand that this legislation be enact
ca and the support that this bill has
received, have caused the Navy De-
partment to seriously consider the
ACCESSIBILITY of abandoning this policy
and thus design ships known to be in
ferior to ships which country pos
sessing an old supply can build"
These bills have made such pro-
gress that the advantage of position
is with them and against the public.
Every effort will be made to jam them
through at the beginning of the short
session of Congress. Powerful water
power and oil interests are fighting
for them. papeal to you as citizen
interested in the public welfare with
cut regard to politics to lend hand
In defeating these attacks on public
property and on the safety and well
fare of the Navy and the Nation.
Sincerely yours.

Auto Club Men Will
Pay Dues or Give
Up Their Emblems

The Omaha Automobile club probably
will take action in the near future in
calling in club emblems on cars Of own
ers who are in arrears in their member
ship dues. The club emblem on the car
of a member who is lax in paying his
dues is as much out OF place as fratern-
ity pin on the person of a college stu
dent who wears the insignia OF so
ciety of which he does not belong, ac-
cording to officials of the club.
What is said to be the most elaborate
and instructive map ever gotten up by
an automobile club in this country Is
being prepared by the Omaha organiza-
tion. There will be free distribution OF
these maps to all members.
On one side there will be a skeleton
outline map of the territory bounded on
the north by the Twin cities. on the south
by st. Louis and Kansas City. on the
east by Davenport, Ia. and on the west
by Denver and Colorado Springs.
The others side will have a detailed
section map, with exact mile squares and
all automobile routes. OF the territory
within 150-mile radius OF Omaha.
committee has been appointed by The
club to cooperate with county officials
in working out plans for better system
of road dragging.

means no Offense.
"Ill do it, 4" answered Ransom, after
he had a look at Miss Lane.
Some of the folks tried to stop it.
They said Miss Lane was a heartless
young woman to sell herself in that
way. But it seemed that she had the
same idea as the mayor. The film
company had done well by her and
she meant to do well by the film COM
pany, which was only little eastern
affair and wasn't rolling in money.
They had very considerably allowed
her to break her contract and she
meant to give them a good send-off.
Incidentally they were already
reaping so rich a harvest that they
saw one error theirs and raised the
price of votes to a dollar. Nobody
kicked.
Incidentally, also, it might be add
ed that Miss Dorothy, being deter
mined ,strong-minded girl, had what
was called a pull with Pres. Harding,
who had promised to buy as many
votes as he could afford in order to
keep Miss Lane for PetersOn's Mon
ument.
Then somebody interjected a side
issue. It was all very well for Pc
terson's Monument to get Miss Lane,
but why should such a prize go to
Ransom, who would probably grow
tired of his wife inside of two
months, and not to Rex, the pharma-
cist, who was very popular among
the girls.
Let the girls settle it among them
selves" suggested little ALI Peter
son, whose fathers grave had given
the name to the settlement. Alf's
father had been the only man scalped
by Indians in the goth century and
the town had celebrated its just dis
tinctiOn by raising memorial to
him.
Then a hideous jest was perpe-
trated. Somebody put in KlaXOn's
