May Open Way for
Uncle Sam Helping
Starving Of Europe

London, Aug. 8.-The foreign office
tomorrow will send a memorandum to
Walter Hines Page, American am
abassdor, which will leave the way
open for resumption of the negotia-
tons for feeding the civilian popula-
ton of the German occupied areas,
the conditions for which, as laid down
by Great Britain, were recently re-
jected by Germany. The memoran-
dunn will suggest that the United
States government can reopen the
question if it regard such step ad-
visable and useful.
Germany's reply rejecting the Br-
fish offer has already been published
in the United States, and Great Bri-
tian's reply thereto, will be made
public here within a few days. The
British reply will deny the conten-
tions of Germany that the British pro-
posals were too long delayed and
that owing to favorable crop pros
poets, relief action could apparently
be dispensed with after October |
and also that the next harvest would
provide for the needs of the people
with the exception of certain periods
when their condition would be
Strengthened.
The reply will say that the first
contention is so false that it is un.
worthy of discussion and that reports
in the possession of the British gov
ernmett refute the latter.
The British reply, which leaves a
resumption of the negotiations to the
Judgment Of the United States, doubt.
less would be received with gratef =.
surprise in Polish relief circles, as the
note outlining the original British
proposal stated that rejection Of
them would end the negotiations.

VISITORS ARE GIVEN
PEEP AT DEN SHOW
Merchants and Butchers Are
Initiated Into Ak Sar- Ben
Mysteries.
sc..G SPEECHES DELIVERED

The visiting merchants who are in
our city for market week, visited the
den of the mighty King Ak-Sar-Ben
last evening and saw the wonders
contained therein.
The United Master Butchers OF
America who are in our city for their
annual convention, mastered the mys-
teries Of the great kings palace. They
saw Coronado throw the bull, they
saw the goose laying the golden egg
they saw King Tatarax and his lovely
queen, the sweet Cremo.
The den show certainly was "hit"
with the big crowd. Some of the
numbers were demanded second and
third time by the persistent clapping
of the good, big, hands.
Some Oratory.
Archie w. Carpenter tried to de-
liver an Grafton instead of a two
minute speech. "Hatty" Black had
chosen three orators from the crowd.
Mr.. Carpenter was to represent the
Omaha jobbers. He started off in fine
oratorical style. He directed atten-
ton to the fertile fields of Nebraska,
he asserted that Omaha jobbers are
delighted to have the merchants as
their guests this week, he fearlessly
asseverated that the knights of Ak
Sar-Ben are fine fellows. This was
fine, but when he plunged into an
analysis of the present high cost OF
paper the hand clapping started,
which means that the den audience
loves not oratory, no matter how
fiowery.
Visitors Talk.
The other two gentlemen made
great successes by speaking about one
minute each. They were Fred Bar
clay OF Pawnee City, speaking for the
visiting merchants, and A. S. Picker
ing of Cleveland, O., president Of the
United Master Butchers of America.
Dad" Weaver purveyed the pleas
ing information that there are now
2723 paid members, by far the great
est number in the history OF the king
dom.
Next Mondays Meeting.
Next Monday evening will be
Rotary club and M. & o. evening at
the den. This means that the Ro-
tarians will be there and also the in
habitants of the towns and country
along the IN. & o" railroad, which
runs in a northerly direction from
Omaha.

Of Some Relief to

Ell Paso, Tex, Aug. S.-Heavy
rains falling today over Chihuahua
brought promise of relief to some
of the famine swept districts of the
state. Mexican authorities in Juarez
pointed out that with two or three
more heavy falls shortly crops will
be given an impetus such as will
alleviate in large measure the dis
tress of the poems. Private advices
here Indicated also that several car
loads of foodstuffs from the border
have reached the Parral district,
