American Boys In the European
War" The other shows the daily
life Of the American ambulance field
corps and the Lafayette flying corps,
which are now under the American
flag.
1t has not been decided where the
pictures will be shown. In the east
the exhibitions were made social af-
fairs, being shown in such homes as
those of Miss Anna Morgan, daughter
of the late J. Pierpont Morgan and
sister of the present capitalist of that
name; Mrs. w. X. Vanderbilt, VIM
cent Astor, George Gould, of New
York, and Edward Stotesbury, of
Philadelphia.
Several Omaha young men, who
are said to be easily recognized in the
pictures, have seen service with the
ambulance corps. They are Carl
Ringwalt, Vic Caldwell, Paul Hor-
hung and Carl Connell Miss Helen
Morton has also done Red Cross
work in Europe.
OF the 800 young Americans in the
ambulance corps, most of whom are
college men, four have been killed
and forty wounded.

on basis of 3 per cent on the invest
ment. This is only bondholders' per
cent, and the bondholdcr does not
give his services as we propose to do
without extra wage or salary. This
offer is bonahdc, and we are prepared
TO stand by it.
I'VE do not believe, however, that
the government is prepared to 20 into
either the farming business or the
packing business, nor do we believe
that the government is disposed to fix
the price of one product without GO
ing all the way down the line and fix
ing the prices of all utilities which en-
ter into the production OF that prod
uct. Fix the price of all products, oil
all labor and material and the men,
bers OF this association will stand sub
missive and protestlcss. We ask only
a square deal and the pursuance of a
policy that will not strangle the meat
producing industry.
1--WE desire some security for the
future. No stockman today knows
what to do. The tendency is to cash
corn and quit the producing of fin
ishcd beef. This would be national
calamity and in some way must be
averted. Secure to the feeder and
producer of corn-tcd beef and pork
adequate remuncratio for his labor
and feed and the future supply OF
corn-fed beef and pork is assured"

Northwestern Employees
Asked to Turn Gardeners

Employees of the Northwestern rail-
road are urged by the road executives
to go to gardening and follow plans
laid down by agricultural and civic
societies in carrying on the work, thus
increasing food production.
Employees of the local headquarters,
however, became inoculated with the
garden bug long before the letter
from their superiors arrived and most
OF them have gardens planted. Even
Harry Snyder, chief clerk to General
Manager Walters, though he lives in
an apartment house, has his garden.
1t is not real one, but Mr.. Snyder
is proud Of it as his crop of lettuce
add radish is looking well. This par
ticular garden is a window box.

Power Of the Presiclent.

In time Of war the president OF the
United States is actually a dictator.
There is nothing theoretical about his
place or his powers. He is commander
in chief Of the army and navy. The
members Of his cabinet are responsible
to him personally not to congress.
None of them may he removed without
his consent except by Impeachment.
Moreover. he can suspend the writ Of
habeas corpus and perform all the 9th
er functions of dictator except order
grants of money. That Is the only real
check upon his powers. and it is
check that can be exercised only At the

The Compensation
Bill is Merely an
Equal Rights Bill

TINE so-caled Compensation Bill now before
the Wisconsin Legislature might be called by
any other name. 1t doesn't grant compensa-
ton to anybody for anything. 1t only grants the
right to sue. That is right every other citizen
enjoys to 60 into court and ask payment for
injury or damage sustained. 1t might better be
called an Equal Rights Bill
1t could be called a Legal Corrccticc Bill for it
only corrects the statutes which today discrni-
nate against liquor men, denying them the other
wise universal right of citizens to bring civil action
for damages or losses.
If you are run down by street car or auto
mobile, compensation or payment for your in
iuries is not handed to you. You have TO prove
your case in court. But the point is right here
you have the privilege and opportunity Of doing
so. The legal avenue is opened to you. You
allowed to sue for damages.
Ard that is aHthc so-callcd Combcn-
sation bill toro0idcs. 1t does not grant
