81 wish to thank you and your Board
for the kindness and hospitality shown
towards my comrades and me during
our short stay in Minneapolis. Since l
left st. Paul, I was at Wilbur Wright
Field at Dayton, and then to Long Island,
N. Y. and from there was sent over to
England. We had a great trip coming
over, and no trouble whatever with sub
marines The people over here are
certainly glad to see us. We hardly
feel that we are away from home. On
the Holiday the Jewish boys in Camp
were granted a three-day furlough, and
we went to Manchester, Eng, which is
about sixty miles from our camp. There
are about 10000 Jews in the city and we
were the only American Jewish soldiers
there. A row of seats was reserved for
us in the Shule, and they treated us as

The only disagreeable thing about Eng

mentS Are Defeated.

Washington, Sept. 23.-National
prohibition effective next July |. for
the period of the war. was approved
tonight by the house, which adopt
ed, 1874 to 81, the senare prohibition
rider to the $l2,000,000 emergency
agricultural appropriation bill. The
measure now will be sent to con-
ference for adjustment of differ
ences between the two houses on
appropriation items.
After voting in the committee of
the whole to accept an amendment
permitting the importation of wine
until next May /, the house later
reversed its decision, and by vote
of III to 50 retained the original
senate provision that importation of
wine must cease when the measure
becomes effective upon its signature
by the president. The amendment
was approved by the house agricul-
ture committee to meet an objection
by the governments of France, Italy,
Spain and Portugal.
All other efforts otherwise to
amend the legislation were defeated.
A proposal by Representative Kahn
of California, republican, to extend
the effective date for prohibiting the
sale of wine and beer to December
81, 1919, was defeated liz to s.. as
was one by Representative Beshlin
of Pennsylvania, democrat, to
change the date for stopping the

north of Travecy, which completed
the conquest of the west bank of
the Disc in that region.
Together with the formidable de-
fenses erected by the Germans
around St. Quentin, General Debe-

Now Paying Soldiers
Without Delay; Send
Allotments on Time

Washington, Sept. 23.-Troops in
the United States now are being
paid within five days or less after
the first of each month and volun-
tary allotments are being sent to
relatives with only slight delay,
Brigadier General Wood, acting
quartermaster general, said today.
A year ago payments were delayed
in many cases as late as the 25th OF
the following month, he said. but
the efforts of Brigadier General H.
NJ. Lord, head of the financial di-
vision of the quartermaster corps,
have month by month cut down the
time until reports from 28 out of 81
camps and cantonments for Septem-
Der show all men had received their
August pay by September. 5
The greatest source of delay in
paying the men, General Wood said,
has been among casuals. The
Inauguration of the individual pay
card system devised by General
Lord, under which each soldier car
ries his own record with him, max
ing it unnecessary to await his mill
tary record, has relieved the situa-
ton.
In France, individual pay books
have been provided for the same
purpose.
General Wood emphasized that
capture by the enemy will not cause
discontinuance of allotments.

MOTHERS OF
MEN AT WAR
IN new CLUB
Say They Were Deceived
About War Mothers of
America, So They
SeCede.

Two hundred mothers of men in
the service seeded from the local
branch of the War Mothers of
America last night at meeting in
the city hall and formed an Omaha
branch of the National American
War Mothers society.
Rev. Visa A. Bell, for 80 years
a minister and an applicant for serv-
ice as chaplain in the army, was
named president; Mrs. Mary Am
brose, vice-president; Mrs. Ada
Brady, secretary and Mrs. Mary
Walters, treasurer.
Give Reasons for Break.
Members gave as their reason for
forming a new organization that
they had been urged to join the War
Mothers of America on false rep
resentation by a local afternoon
newspaper that the organization was
to include only mothers of soldiers,
sailors, and women in the service.
Subsequently, all women relatives OF
men in the service were admitted to
membership in the society, contrary
to its name and purpose, so the dis
senting members state.
A reporter from the newspaper
in disfavor with the women attempt
cd to obtain a hearing, but he was
asked to leave the room, as was the
male reporter of another local news
paper. A woman reporter from the
Bee. was invited by the chairman
to remain.
Able to Steer Own Course.
"We mothers who have given so
much to our country are amply able
to thaperone ourselves. If we want
any help, we don't need you; we
will get a lawyer, the Rev. Bell
