Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 2l.-(SpeciaD
Professor NJ. NJ. Fogg Of the Uni

of the Division OF Four Minute Men,
started for France today to serve

officer in the college division Of the

dents" which the National War
Work council of the Young Mems
Christian association will conduct
in conjunction with the War depart
ment during the period of demobili-

His work as organizer, probably
in rhetoric or journalism, will make
it advisable, he is advised, to join

will stop in Washington long

opinion that very few American
prisoners remain in Germany and
believed these would be quickly
evacuated. He said a continued
search is being made for isolated
prisoners, British and French ~oiii-
Gals in Switzerland, Holland and
Sweden and in Germany itself aiding
in this search.
Every effort is being made to ar
range for the delivery of mail con-
signed to units which have been des-
igrated for early return, the chief
IF staff said. In case where major
:ty of the members of any unit have
been ordered home, the mail is held
in the United States until the orgau:-
zs ton arrives, and a report is made
of the men left in France. The mail
addressed to these men then is sor.-
e. out and sent across.
General March disclosed the fact
that the communication facilities
with the American forces in Russia
I articularly in the Archangel area,
nave been very unsatisfactory. The
War department itself has had diff
Guilty in communicating important
military instructions to the com-
mander and only meager dispatches
have come through to this end.
General March said he felt sure that
the authorities in England and
France through whom these mes
sages pass are doing everything pos
sible to improve the situation.
General March said that coast ar
llery units which were being used
for army and corps artillery are all
beng returned to this country, bat
those which were serving as iivi-
s;onal artillery probably will stay
abroad for some time.

AUDIT OF BOOKS
NOT ASKED FOR
SAYS WEBSTER
Attorney for Street Car Com.
pany Thinks Commission
Has No Right to
Hold Case Open.

Lincoln, Dec. 2l.-(Special to The
Bee.)-The State Railway commits
sion Saturday denied the application
Of the Omaha & Council Bluffs
Street Railway company to have
stricken from the records that part
of their decision refusing to grant
an increase of fares where it says
that the application for increase
viii be kept open until after an audit
OF the company books. The rail
company commended that the COM
mission had no authority to continue
a hearing after they have handed
down a decision.
John L. Webster, general counsel
for the Omaha & Council Bluffs
Street Railway company, declared
yesterday that the only reason he
ccrld see for the State Railway
commission ordering an audit of the
c,mpany's books and a physical
valuation of the property, was that
tie commission wants to show the
legislature, that it has work to do
ard therefore should continue to ex-
ist and pay salaries to its members.
No Right to Open Case.
1--WE contend that the commission
has no right to hold the case open
In order to make an audit or for any
other reason after it has handed
down its decision, which it did last
week.
Nobody has asked for an audit OF
the conpany's books. The COM
mission is trying to act without any
authority whatsoever.
THE commission has been eight
months in arriving at its present
decision. How long do you suppose
an audit would take? At least a
year or two. And it would probbly
cost $4,000 which the people would
have to pay.
Asked During War.
Another thing-the street rail-
way company asked this increase in
iare merely during the abnormal
war conditions. After those disap-
pear the company expected to re-
store the Scent fare. The commits
sion claims it wants to make the audit
and physical valuation to see
whether a permanent increase i'll
fares is warranted, question which
It has not been asked to decide"
Mr.. Webster stated that the COM
pany will try to secure legal relief
from the action which the commits
sion is attempting to take.

necessary to call conference to

enforce same. The above plan was
endorsed almost unanimously by the

all local communities will live up to
