help of Senator Sandal, another

Telephone Installation
CHARGE to Be Continued

Lincoln, July l0-(Special)-
Connection charges as inaugurated
by Postmaster General Burleson for
removal of telephones and charges
for change of names will continue,
according to a ruling Of the State
Railway commission, until the COM
mission has made study of the
matter and can give some definite
idea as to cost in connection with
the same.
Charges as put in force by the
postmaster general were $3.50 for
installation or moving of phones
and $3.50 for changing name of user.
The commission expects to make
an investigation which will result
in finding actual cost of moving
and that will govern the price in
each instance instead of a set
charge.

Officer of Prague Juvenile
Court Tells Local Bohemians
of Terrible Conditions
in CzeCho.SIOvakia.

The tuberculosis death rate in
Czecho- Slovakia is greater than the
present birth rate, Miss Emma
Novagoba told Omaha Bohemians
at a meeting in the Bohemian hall
on the South Side Wednesday
night. This fact is all the more
startling, she declared, when it is
remembered that the people in that
land live almost entirely out of
doors and that before the war,
tuberculosis was practically un-
known in the country.
Miss Novagoba spoke in her ma
tive tongue and recited incident
after incident in her experience as
an officer of the Prague juvenile
court to show the dire distress of
her people in general. In one ward
in Pragve, where the wealthy lived
and were the only ones who could
pay the enormous price demanded
for meat during the war, she SAID
that practically every person be-
came sick. Official investigation
showed that the meat they were
buving was disinterred horse flesh.
The story showed the great want
and miseryof the population of that
newly created country. Miss
Navogoba told of visit to a boy
who was ward of the juvenile
court for stealing. When she ar
rived at the home she found the
father, a tubercular victim and FIVE
children living on the meat of cat
which they had stolen. The mother,
with her baby, was in Jail for beg
ging. This, the speaker declared,
was typical of the situation and not
simply an isolated case.
Short addresses were also made
by Rev. Mr.. Vinek, a Presbyterian
minister of Chicago and by 1t. S. c.
Peck, U. S. A., member of the
Hoover mission at Prague, who are
accompanying Miss Novagoba on
her trip through the United States.
At the conclusion of the program,
the Bohemians were given oppor-
tunity to ask questions about con-
ditions in their native land. which
we1e answered by Miss Novagoba.
No collection or subscription was
taken for the distressed people of
zecho-Slovakia, but it was an
nounced that all who desired to min
lister to the wants of these sufferers,
especially, the needy children,
should send their contributions to
the treasurer of the Mary Masaryk
fund, Thomas Capek, president OF
the Bank of Europe, New York
City.
Miss Novagoba and her party left
for Crete, Neb., yesterday morning
and will be'in Milligan, Neb., today.
From there they will go to Lincoln,
Neb., Munden, Kan Brainard, Neb..
Prague, Neb., Clarkson, Neb., and
ORD, Neb-, returning to Omaha

Former North Dakota Farmer
Tesdfies in Townley Trial
on Sedition Charge.

Jackson, Mimi, July l0.-Fred B.
Wood, of Minneapolis, former
North Dakota farmer and men,
her of the Nom Partisan Leauge's
executive committee of three, was
the principal witness Thursday aft
ernoon at the conspiracy TRIAL OF
4. c. Townley and Joseph Gilbert,
league officials.
Mr.. Wood was the first man to
JOIN the organization he said, and
has been closely connected with it
since 1915.
After a bitter argument Wood
was allowed to testify regarding the
drawing OF the leagues war resolu-
tons at the St. Paul convention in
1917, and which have been attacked
by the state in this case
The witness stated that so far as
he knew, President T6wnley has
nothing to do with the resolutions,
John NJ. Hagen, commissioner Of
agriculture and labor for North Da-
koia, was called to testify regarding
his views on the loyalty of the

ton at St. Paul in September, 1917,
but Judge f. c. Dean, sustained a
state objection against this line of
testimony.
Examination of Representative
John M. Baer, Non-Partisan League
member from the first district of
North Dakota. was completed
Thursday forenoon.
Baer was vigorously cross exam
ined by Prosecuting Attorney E. H.
Nicholas, regarding his statement of
principles contained in the Non
Partisan League war program, pub
lished in the fall of 1917, that there
was not a shortage Of food in this
country at that time. The represent
tative insisted that he meant the
food supply was adequate, if food
gamblers and spectators, the real
traitors, were eliminated and more
efficient system of distribution were
obtained"

that proposition was not as popu-
lar as it had been, it was simply
in a quiescent state but not dead.
He thought that if private owner.
ship was fairly satisfactory, and it
was up to the operators to make
it so, private ownership might con-
tinue.
George K. Gam of the Lincoln
company said that the high cost of
living had increased 100 per cent.
and that according 70 about 20
merchants with whom he talked, in
an effort to gather reliable infor-
nation this condition would not be
materially changed during the pres
ent generation.
In the morning a banquet was
held at tho Lincoln hotel in which
Ihorne A. Browne, secretary of the
Nebraska railway commission was
the principal orator. His address
was mostly of humorous charac-
ter. He said that as a general thing
small companies lacked the know
ledge of what was necessary in the
way OF information for the COM
mission in settling telephone trou-
bles and that during the shortage
of help some of them tried to lay
the blame on the postmaster gen.
eral. ~
He said that many of the annual
reports appeared to be simply guess
work. Companies, he said, do not
distinguish between new construc-
tio1. and operating Costs and appear
to think they are going in the hole,
when they build new lines out of
operating expenses.
