BASE COWARD"
Debate on Sedition Bill Brings
Hot Words to Surface Directed
at Neal of Nemaha;; House
Bill Changed.

Lincoln, April 5.-(Special Tcle-
gram. )-"Any senator who makes
such charge is a base coward and
slanderer," were the words that de-
liberately came from Albert of Platte
in warm debate over the sediton
bill in the senate taking up most Of
the afternoon, in which Neal of
Nemaha had said that the senator
from Platte had attempted to bolster
up his patriotism by reference to pat
riotic ancestors and son in the army,
as an excuse for his amendment strik-
ipg out the house amendments to the
sedition bill and substituting others
prepared by the senate judiciary
committee.
II refer to the senator from Ne
maha," said Albert as he took his
seat.
Senator Neal replied: 81 have no
apology to offer. 1t was all forgotten
long ago."
Says Bill Unnecessary.
The debate over the amendment
was warm. Senator Albert went into
the matter at considerable length in
an effort to show by the present law
against sedition that the bill from the
house was unnecessary and that the
amendment covered all that was
necessary.
Sandtll followed with the same line
of argument, but McMullen Of Gage
made the real speech of the con-
troversy. Mr.. McMullen said there
should be no attempt to strike at the
loyalty Of any nationality. No one
should object to any bill which
specifically pointed out all kinds of

that there was large a per centage

jAPS LAND NAVAL
FORCES IN RUSS
TO PROTECT LIFE
Incident Regarded as Having
No Connection With Much
Discussed Possibility Of
Intervention in Siberia.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, April .5.-Landing Of
Japanese naval forces at Vladivostok
to protect life and property-was re-
ported to the State department today
by the American consul there.
The action followed an attack on
Japanese officer by five armed Rus
slams who upon being refused money,
Killed one Japanese and wounded two
others. The force landed was said
to be small and only sufficient to pre-
vent further disorders.
1t was learned officially that the
American government attaches no
political significance to this Incident.
In other words, it is not regarded as
being connected in any way with the
much discussed possibility of Jap
anese Intervention in Siberia The
landing party was from a Japanese
cruiser stationed in Vladivostok har-
Dor.
Trouble Is Local.
Since the return to Japan from Rus
sia of Baron Uchida, the Japanese
minister to Petrograd, the Japanese
prime minister has indicated clearly
that Japan does not intend, at present,
at least, to enter Siberia in a military
way without reference to the wishes
of the Russian government, unless
some extreme emergency should arise.
1t has been assumed here that such an
emergency would be the organization
of the German military prisoners in
Siberia into an armed force designed
to seize control of the country, or the
taking possession by factions hostile
to the entente allies of the great guam
tity of military stores, accumulated at
Vladivostok.
Neither of these contingencies has
arisen at Vladivostok and the State
departments information indicates
that the trouble at that port is purely
local. While the bolshevik element
predominates at the port it never has
been able to assert its authority and
preserve order.

STAGE ALLSET
FOR LIBERTY
LOAN PARADE
Fifty Thousand Citizens to
Take Part in Concentrating
Anniversary of Americas
Entrance Into the War.

The Liberty day parade, COM
memorating the first anniversary of
Americas entrance into the world war
and marking the starting point for the
third Liberty loan, will be held this
afternoon. Sunshine or rain, snow or
sleet, good weather or bad weather, it
will be staged. More than $4,000
patriotic Omahans will march.
The mass of details incident to such
an occasion, the lining up" of the
many sections from entire Greater
Omaha, the marshalling of the forces
and the furnishing Of all persons with
flags are a few of the problems
which have been worked out. Ar
rangements are now completed and
the parade will move with clock-like
precision. No delays will be toler-
ated.
Big Reviewing Stand.
Colonel Pickering of Fort Crook,
Colonel Hershey of Fort Omaha,
Mayor Dahlman and other city Off
Gals, DR.. Z. f. Violette, members of
the Grand Army of the Republic,
prominent visitors in the city, will
form part of the great mass of on
lockers. A special reviewing stand
has been erected for them on the
courthouse sidewalk, opposite the city
hall.
So many applications were received
from various drill teams to march in
the parade in uniform, that the COM
mittee has announced that no teams in
uniform will be permitted to march,
as this would defeat the plans of the
parade, which are that only bodies Of
a military nature are to wear uni
forms.
Many people have asked the COM
mittee' where organizations and indi-
viduals not assigned are to form for
the march. They have been told on
Twenty-eighth street, Gom Farnam to
Leavenworth streets.
U. S. Flags Furnished.
All United States flags will be
furnished to marchers, but service
flags must be furnished by the indi-
viduals who wish to carry them.
Liberty day festivities will be
started by four bands, which will
arrive from Camp Dodge tonight, in
charge of Lieutenant Hamilton. The
bands will march from the station
about midnight, playing patriotic airs.

BRITISH REPULSE FOE.
London, April 5.-The Germans
this morning attacked the British
forces on a wide front from Dernan.
court, few miles south of Albert, ia"
Moyenneville, north Of the Somme,
according to statement published by
the Evening Standard.
The chief points OF attack, the
newspaper says, were Dernancourt,
Menin, Beaumont-Haml, Briegury and
Moyenneville.
The Germans were repulsed with
heavy loss except at Dernancourt,
where they made slight gain.
There have been no attacks south
of the Somme so far today, the state-
ment says.
The British have been pressed
back a short distance on the front
east of Amiens TO positions east of

A suggestion that a great mass
meeting be held Saturday noon, April
IS, to raise Omaha's quota of the Lib
erty loan in an hour and the news
telegraphed throughout the nation
has been unanimously rejected by the
local committee as an unWise move.
"Omahas quota could be raised in
such a fashion," explained Thomas
C. Byrne, chairman of the state COM
mittee, but it would defeat the pur-
pose of our government, which is anx-
ious for a wide distribution of the
bonds, and it would not give all our
patriotic citizens AN equal chance"
This is not the last bond issue"
said William T. Rhoades, chairman
of the city committee. There are
other larger issues to come. In order
that there may be no business stagna-
ton we must not load up compara-
lively few individuals and firms with
bonds. 1t takes more time to sell
bonds TO the other investors, but it is
TO the advantage Of the general public
to secure the largest possible number
