Arrested IN Iowa for
Having Liquor on His
Person; Tried IN Omaha

The Douglas street bridge, with
one end in Iowa and the other in
Nebraska. offered a puzzling prob
lem in legal procedure Wednesday
morning, when Officer Herdzina of
the morals squad undertook to ar
rest Frank St. Clair Of the Neville
hotel, and H. ]. Bailey of Griswold,
Ia, on a charge of the illegal pos
session of liquor.
After stopping the men and max
ing but unavailing search of their
machine, Officer Herdzina discover
ed the end of a bottle of booze
projecting from Bailey's pocket. He
Immediately possessed himself of it
and directed the men to drive to the
west and of the bridge where he
planned to turn them over to officer
Swenson for transportation to the
city Jail.
The legal tangle began at this
point, when Officer Swensen ques-
toned his right to arrest a man in
Nebraska for the illegal possession
of liquor which had been taken from
him in Iowa, in which state pocket
bars are not considered so heinous
as here. The difficulty was finally
solved by arresting the men on a
charge of being drunk. They were
allowed to depart under bond, pend
ing alater trial of the case.

ization.

DETENTION HOME
TEACHES WOMEN
FEAR OF LORD
Dr.. Palmer FlndIey Tells
Members Of Rotary Club Of
Conditions in Women's
Detention Home. q

The greatest work the institution
has accomplished TO date is TO plant
the fear Of God in the hearts Of
thousands of young girls of Omaha,
declared DR.. Palmer Findley yes
terday noon in an address before
the Rotary club on the Women's
Detention Home.
DR.. Findley is medical director at
the home.
THE fact that we are treating
at the home a great many women
who are afflicted with social diseases
does not constitute our largest ac-
complishment," he said. The fact
that we have cured many. of these
unfortunates and thereby curtail-
ed the spread Of the disease is not
our greatest work We have thrown
the fear of God into thousands
Of young girls in Omaha, who but
for our existence would be solicit
ing on the streets today"
Laments "Unfair" Criticism.
Referring to Alta Burger, sup
erintendent Of the institution, DR..
Findley spoke in warm and enthus-
iastic praise of her ability, integ-
rity and energy. He lamented the
misguided and unfair criticism"
which he declared had been directed
At her by persons who did not
realize the trying circumstances
with which she is surrounded.
Il have unbounded sympathy
for this fraiI and good little wo-
man." the speaker continued. "She
weighs less than 100 pounds and
her strength has been taxed to
the point OF breaking. She is
faithful and capable il the discharge
Of her duties. She Became a grad
uate nurse a little over a year ago,
and because of her physical weak
ness she was disappointed in her
ambition to take up the task Of
nursing the wounded soldiers of
her country. She felt when she
went into the work at the home,
she was serving the country to
the very limit of her strength.
Because of the blame that has been
heaped upon her, repeatedly she
has threatened to sever her connec-
ton with the institution. She feels
it her duty to remain, however, and
I think she will continue to con-
tribute her valuable services to the
cause Of the home"

PUBLIC NOT FAIR
TO PACKER, SAYS
J.OGDEN ARMOUR
''MOre Liberal Thought" De-
Sirable, He Thinks; Packers
Fear to Talk Together
About Business.

Washington, Jan. Happening
for the second day before the house
interstate commerce committee, ].
Ogden Armour, president of Ar
mour & Co., was questioned fur
Their today by members of the COM
mittee as to operations of the meat
packing industry. The committee is
conducting a hearing in connection
with the bill proposing government
regulation OF the industry.
Establishment of a central agency
to control shipments of meat ami
mails to market was advocated by
Mr.. Armour as a means of STABILIZE
ing prices and preventing gluts in
the market. He said, however, that
supply was not the only factor in
fixing the market price for live
stock, which depended also on
the fiuctuating demand for meat.
Replying to Representative
Stephens of Nebraska, Mr.. Armour
said the consumer could protect
himself in a measure against high
prices by refraining from, purchas-
ing, but that the producer of live
stock, like the packer, had to take
whatever the market was paying at
the time he sold.
Want Reasonable Price.
1--WE are very much interested In
maintaining a reasonable price,
much more so than in having a
price so high as to discourage the
eating of meat or too low to pre-
vent the raising of cattle" Mr.. Ar
mour said.
SIS there any way that fat cattle
can be sold at a price based on pro-
duction costsl" Mr.. Stephens asked.
1--WE would welcome very heartily
any arrangement that would accom-
plish that" the witness said. "You
might do away with the glut on the
market by establishing a central
agency to regulate shipments. The
food administration has established
a zone system at Chicago, working
through the railroads, which has
operated fairly we'll.
Packers Afraid.
"If there was little more liberal
thought in the treatment of the
packers it would be 100 times better
for the general public. The packers
have been afraid even to talk to-
gether because Of charges Of col
Omaha daily bee., 1919-01-23

lusion. There ought to be some
way for the packers, producers and
consumers to get together for the
advantage of each"
Il also think there ought to be
some thought Of arrangement to
protect all" said Mr. Stephens.
Bringing out that the Sl5,0OOOOO
earnings shown in Armour's annual
statement did not include $6,800,0OO
set aside for income and excess
profits, Mr.. Stephens said:
Then you are passing that on to
the consumed"
THAT may be so" Mr.. Armour re-
piled.

men with which the detention home
has had to contend, he said, was not
the prostitute, but the girl of easy
virtue" These girls usually are
found around the dance halls and
walking the streets" he said. "The
prostitute as a rule is a woman who
commentaries, and the woman of
easy virtue is employed in legitimate
work"
DR.. Findley declared that there
were between 40 and so prisoners
held at the home, and that in spite OF
the fact that II policemen constantly
were on watch, frequently the in
mates escaped.
Battle Twice Daily.
The speaker declared that the
conditions at the institution we're
pleasant and homelike, and far bet
ter than SO per cent Of the inmates
were used to. In order TO keep the
girls busy they are required to scrub
the floors and battle twice a day,
He said since the home was institut-
ed only two or three girls, who were
not diseased, had been detained.
When the girls are cured of their
affection they are paroled and re-
CURED to report to the superintend-
ent three or four times week, de-
clared the speaker.
DR.. Findley said that it was posi-
bic to obtain better results through
The home than through private prac-
tice. 1T is not only possible" he
said, "but it has been demonstrated"
DR.. Findley took occasion to laud
Dean Ringer. police commissioner,
for the stand he has taken il de-
tending the home. HE has bucked
the powerful lineup of the opposi-
ton with a splendid courage and
he said. 1T is devoutedly
to be hoped that his efforts will
prove successful" t
Dr. Findley defended the idea of
having medical students attend the
inmates by saying that they produc-
ed better results than practicing
would, because they were
able to devote more time to the
work. 1--WE have six students work
ing there, and their work speaks for
itself. They are instructed to con-
duet themselves while attending the
patients just as they would in the
sick chamber of one of their own
patients. There is no reasonable
fault to find with the work or con-
duct of these students"
