Grain DEALERS
SCORE MEASURE
TO STOP MIXING
Omaha Exchange Men Say
Bill Would LegisIate
Them Out of Exist
enCe, If Passed.
From a Sac CORRESPONDENT.

Lincoln, Feb. 24.-Should the
legislature pass House Roll 500, a
bill to bring the marketing of grain.
live stock and all farm products I'M
der the jurisdiction OF the State
Railway commission in its present
form, the Omaha Grain Exchange
might as we'll close its doors, was
the opinion, expressed by Oscar
Holmquist today when he contended
that provision OF the law forbids
the mixing OF grain, one of the priv
ileges which is the principal source
of profit to members of the grain
exchange. Mr.. Holmquist said that
other terminals which compete with
Omaha as marketing centers would
have the privilege of mixing grains
to make new grades and if Omaha
and other Nebraska terminal mar
kets were denied this, they could
not compete at all
Frank Liston of Hooper, speaking
for the bill, said farmers were denied
the privilege Of buying seats in the
Omaha Grain Exchange and it was
the purpose of the law to prevent
any discrimination of this kind.
Secretary Stryker of the Omaha
Live Stock exchange, said that there
was no crying demand for this class
Of legislation to apply to the live
stock exchange and asked how it
came to be included in the bill.
No explanation was forthcoming
and he asked that all reference to
the live stock be stricken from the
bill.
Friends Of the bill were inclined
to strike out the passage prevent
ing the mixing of grains.~
House Roll 345, similar bill, in
troduced by John Christensen was
also included in the discussion. 1t
is probable the friends OF the pro-
posed law will get behind one OF
the two bills.

Subcommittee Fixes
Responsibility Of War;
Findings Secret

Paris, Feb. 24.-The subcomntit-
tee of the peace conference dealing
with the responsibility of the au-
thors of the war has completed its
work. Its report has not been
made public, but as its meetings and
the hearings it gave were attended
by nearly all the members of the
full committee, there seems no
doubt that the report will receive
formal approval and be laid before
the supreme council.
1t is believed that the subcom-
mittee has made findings only as to
the moral responsibility OF the au-
thors Of the war and not as regards
technical violations of international
law by individuals.
Other subcommittee dealing with
various phases of responsibility for
the war have not yet reached the
point of presenting their findings.

HOUSE FAvORS
|. LANGUAGE BILL
OF Sen, SIMAN
Measure Advanced to Third
Reading in Lower Body
With But Few Neg
alive Votes.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 24-(Speeial
Telegram. 1.-The Siman foreign
language bill, S. F. No. "a, received
the emphatic approval OF the house
this afternoon when it was adj
vanced to third reading for passage
in the house committee of the
whole with only three or four mega
tive votes in opposition.
Representative Porter of Douglas
attempted to amend the bill to
allow religious instruction in pri-
vate and parochial schools in for
eign languages, but his amendment
was showed under with chorus Of
noes" Two of Porter's colleagues
voted with him.
An amendment proposed by Rep
resentative Wildman that any
private or parochial school giving
foreign language instruction con-
trary to the law should be closed
and the students placed in the pub
lie schools, was ruled out because
it was not IN proper form.
The house likewise declined to
postpone final action on the bill and
defeated a motion to report prog
ress in order to allow other amend
ments to be admitted. 1t now goes
to third reading and will doubtless
pass with the emergency clause.
There are some amendments to
the senate bill so that it will have
to go to a conference committee.
Applause for Mckee.
Representative Mckee evoked
considerable applause from a crowd
ed gallery during the discussion Of
the bill "If you are an American at
heart speak our language; if you
don't know it learn it and if you
don't like it, then move" he de-
clared.
Representative Reynolds, arguing
against the bill, declared that it
savored strongly, of religious
prejudice if not persecution. 1--WE
can't make these people love Amer
lea by requiring them to talk Eng
lish all of the time" he said.
Representative Byrum replied to
Reynolds. DO you want to go
back home and confess you catered
to the foreign lement," he asked
Reynolds. I'VE are not trying to
interfere with religion or control it..
We are simply laying down the law
for schools and we are saying that
private or parochial schools shall
have no rights superior to those Of
the public schools.
Until you can convince me that
God does not know the English Ian
guage l will not believe the child
needs to be taught how to worship
in any other" replied Representative
Christy.
Amendments Adopted.
Both amendments framed by the
committee were adopted, after they
had been explained by Chairman
Gerhart. One eliminated provision
requiring the state superintendent
approval for teaching a foreign Ian
guage above the eighth grade. An
other cut out Church and denomina-
tional schools" in order to exempt
Sunday schools and schools that are
