Persons buying Liberty bonds at

warning of the Nebraska State Coun-

"On account of the widely ex-

touse large acreage OF corn for fod-
der this year" the council statement
says, "and it is highly important that
proper provision be made for the ad-
ditional harvesting machinery that
will be needed to take care of it.
Owing to the rushed conditions
obtaining in the manufacturing plants
throughout the country and the extra
demand for material that is. used in
the construction of farm machinery,
implement manufacturers and leaders
are urging that orders for corn bind
ers and other necessary machinery be
placed as early as possible.
1T is also very imperative that
large acreage of winter wheat be
sown next fall and the experience of
the last winter has proved the ad-
visibility of seeding winter wheat in
cornstalks with the one-horse drill.
Those contemplating seeding winter
wheat in this manner are urgently re-
quested to see to it that the drill is on
hand at the time that it is needed.

Saverio Nitti. former minister of agri-
culture and industry and commerce
and economic head of the Italian war
mission. said today that the mission
had come, not to seek anything for
Italy specially, but to draw more
closely together the two great nations
and assure an allied victory.
There is only one great question
today, and that is whether German
militarism or allied democracy shall
survive" he said. IF Germany wins
this war, its oligarchy will destroy the
world. This does not mean the
crushing of the German nation. but,
rather, such military defeat as to
discredit absolutely Germany's mill
tary caste.
italy did not enter this war for
any particular interest 1t could cas-
lily have stayed out on the basis OF its
treaty with Germany The threat OF
world combination under the menace
of the mailed fist made such a course
impossible This is ltaly's last war
OF independence. 1t gives it oppor-
tunity to rectif,' its boundaries and to
win back its lost provinces.

FOUR THOUSAND OUT
BECAUSE OF STRIKE
Extra Police Sworn In to Pa

the Big Building Jobs
In Omaha.

With between $500 and 1000 men
out of work i'll Omaha as a result of
numerous strikes, and the resultant
lockout in the building trades, the
labor situation in Omaha is very cri-
teal at this time.
Beginning Monday night, large
squad of special police were sworn in
for nigni duty to partol the streets
and the regions around big building
jobs.
Though deliveries of building ma
terial to any of the building jobs were
cut off over a week ago, few de-
liveres are being made by night,
mostly after midnight, even now.
These are few, however, and only
small deliveries of material of GER
tain class badly needed to finish up
some very necessary part of build
ing. For the most part, building jobs
are idle.
Many Are Idle.
Workers in all lines of building
activities, carpenters, bricklayers,
plasterers, electricians, marble settlers,
hosting engineers, lathers, -hod car
riers, and all are idle as result OF
the situation.
Not all of these trades are on strike.
Only a part of them, such as cleo
tricians, hosting engineers, fathers,
painters, Transfers and few others
went on strike. Then the lockout by
the building contractors and the ma
terial men followed.

FLY FLAGS SLOGAN
IS BEING PUSHED
Chairman w. H. Clarke is
Stricken With Scarlet
Fever, but the Work
Goes On.

Just when w. H. Clarke was made
chairman of a special committee to
fire the city into a burst of flag dec
orations for the period of June 2 to
6, he was taken i'll with scarlet fever.
He has had to drop the work Of
urging flag and bunting decorations,
and as a result of his dropping out
w. T. Burns, L. V. Nicholas, and
Harry A. Turkey have had to take up
the burden.
They are calling up various organ
izations, and individual business
houses urging that this period, which
covers by a margin of a few days on
either side, the draft registration per-
iod, be made the occasion for patriotic
decorations on all the buildings and
in the streets.
Peters as Chairman.
M. c. Peters is chairman of the gen.
eral committee under the State Coun-
Gil for Defense for patriotic demon
STATIONS during the draft registration
period.
Now the committee finds itself con-
fronted with another problem-that
of flag shortage. They find the stores
are almost Nout of bunting, and give
them no satisfaction on the subject
of producing a hasty supply. Water
proof bunting is practically unobtain-
able.
The result is the committee is urg-
ing everyone to make use Of all the
old flags, all formerly used bunting,
and anything around the place with
the national colors in it.
The improvement clubs are being
asked to work along the same line.
Mayor Dahlman is to arrange to have
the city hall and the court house
decorated. The Telephone company
and the Hotel Fontenelle have pro-
posed to give their respective build
ings some special decorations. The
Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Rail
way company plans to decorate all
trolley poles, and to drape flags and
bunting from all the cross wires. The
superintendent of the schools will
be asked to reach the children through
the principals and teachers and thus
try to reach every home in the city
with an appeal that special decoration
be put on those days.
