BUTLER TO WAGE
WAR ON REST OF
COMMISSIONERS
Learns That Bill introduced in
Legislature Would Take the
Asphalt Plant from His
\ Department.

City Commissioner Butler, head
Of the department of street cleaning
and maintenance, has declared war
on all the rest of the city commits
sioners. ....
Mr. Butler learned that bill has
been introduced into the legislature
to take away from his management
sthe city asphalt plant and the de-
partment of street maintenance,
leaving him nothing but street
cleaning.
They tried to put this across on
me when thew organized the coun-
Gil last May" said Mr.. Butler, tand
they didn't get away with it. Now
they're trying to put it over an
other way
'tIf they think I'll stand for it they
have another think coming. I'll
show them where they get off if
they try any such businesses with
me.
"They want consolidation, do
they? Well, If they do. I'll give
them consolidation. I'll put in
bill down at Lincoln to do away
with the city commission altogether
and put the city affairs all in the
hands of city manager"
Commissioner Butler called at
the office of Commissioner Towl,
into whose department the bill pro-
poses to transfer the asphalt plant
and street maintenance But Mr.
FOWL wasn't in. Mr.. Butler then
hurried down to Mayor Smiths
office, where he handed in an ulti-
matum Of great force. The mayor
professed to know nothing about
the proposed bill and said he was
not in favor of it at all.
Commissioner IRE also knows
nothing of the proposed amendments
he believes that the as
phalt plant Should be in the hands |
of a department where there are
ex jerts who know all about that |
work and exactly how to run i"
Bruce Had Not Heard Of 1t.
City Engineer Bruce said that the
bill was introduced without the
knowledge of his department.
1T is all the same TO me, one way |
or the other" he declared. Il GER
tainly would not make any effort to
get that work added to this depart
ment."
1t is said that the bill was put in
BY former employee of the depart
ment of street cleaning and main
tenance under Commissioner Parks,
Mr.. Butler predecessor.
One of the big fights Of organic
ing the new city council last May |
was this same fight. Mr.. Butler was
the only member who held over
from the former city council and |
was in a decided minority in the |
When the least desired job I
was assigned to him he expressed |
great disappointment, but when
was started to take the
asphalt plant and street main
tenance away too he threatened to

Mayor Smith pointed out at that
time that the city charter did not
permit the transfer of the asphalt
plant to any other department.
Mr.. Butler says he will go to the
bottom of the affair and find out
Just who is responsible for the filing
of the bill.

L. c. Brian and Martin
Make Protest Against
Proposed School Bill
BY a Staff Correspondent.

Lincoln. Feb. 6.-At a meeting of
the house committee on education
this afternoon, bills affecting the pa
roehial school we're taken up.
L. G. Brian of Lincoln and Paul
L. Martin, dean of the law college
of Creighton university, appeared
in behalf OF the Catholic parochial
schools. They protested against
certain technicalities of the various
bills that they claimed would be
practically conhscation of their
schools.
They agreed on a program of
Standardization of studies, the GER
tihcation Of teachers to be accom-
plished by September /, 1921, the
inspection of schools by county and
state superintendent and the pre-
scribing of a course of study that
would be substantially the same as
that of the public schools.
They also agreed that there would
be no objection on the part of Cath
olics to the elimination of foreign
language study or instruction from
the grade schools.
IF elimination of parochial
schools is to be your aim" said Mr..
Martin, lit must either be because
the schools are inefficient or un-
American. That our schools are eff
cient is proven by their being &C
credited by the state university and
that they are American is proved
by our war record. The right of
the parent in the training of child
is paramount and you cannot build
State that will be a monstrosity
of arbitrary power without upset
ting ali precedent"
Asked if he favored the sisters
teaching in public schools, he
answered in the negative and said
he favored regulations which would
remedy this condition where it ex-
listed in the state and also remarked
that this was generally the stand
taken BY Catholics. A further hear
ing on the various bills is to be had.

Suspected as German Spy.
Heyneman's marriage to his first
wife is said to have been the Gull
mination of romance, which began
in the Pryenees mountains, where
the architect had gone to spend
vacation after being released from
French prison as suspected Ger
man spy. They were married in
Paris in 1914, and divorced in Sep
TENDER, 1916.
Heyneman then became engaged
in work as an architect in Hastings,
Neb.. with c. W. Way. Here he
met Miss Grayce Jackson, whom he
made his wife in a very short while.
The couple moved to Bryan, Tex,
where Heyneman was engaged as
teacher in technical institution.

ing he was going to change his name
and join the French army. A sec
ond letter was 4 received by Mrs.
Heyneman from Charleston, S.
C., reiterating his purpose to
lose his identity and flee
from the country. He said
he was done with his wife and did
not want to see her again. Later
reports were received from a pleas
nre resort in Oregon that Heyneman
had been seen there. Investigation
developed that the man had left and
no one knew where he had gone.
In her petition for divorce filed in
the Douglas county court house,
Mrs. Heyneman alleges extreme
cruelty and that Heyneman left her
without means of support. She
states that she was a kind and low
ing wife" She seeks the restora,
ton of her maiden name.
All efforts to locate Heyneman
have ben of no avail, stated Attor-
ney Claiborne. 1--WE did not ask
for alinony" said the attorney, be
cause il is necessary in cases Of this
kind to get personal service on the
defendant before suit can be filed.
1t is believed Heyneman is some
where in Europe, and may be found
either in Paris or Berlin, where he
took post graduate courses in en-
cheering after receiving his degree
at the University of Pennsylvania.
The architect is said to have many
friends in Paris and other European
cities, and it rs thought he has car
ried out his threat to his wife and
is using an assumed name.

TERMS OF TRUCE

it to resume its manufacturing
industry, M. Peret said:
Il do not believe that all ina-
portations OF raw material to the
Germans should be forbidden be-
cause their industry would then be
at a standstiil and they would be
unable to pay. Neither do I believe
that they should be permitted to
import without limitation, because,
with their lower wages, longer
working hours and undepleted sup
plies of machinery, they would be
able to undersell any other country
on the market, which would be
quite as great a calamity as being
unable to pay. However, it will be
a long time before any European
country can export any raw material
and the question mainly interests
America.
81 would suggest that preferen-
tiai treatment be given the allied
countries, France, Belgium and
Serbia, which have suffered the
greatest damage. Raw material
from America should be sent to
these countries first, the overflow
being allowed to revert to Germany
so as to enable her to keep its ma
chinery working without enabling
her to undersell us,
The financial problem is the
most momentous one before the
peace conference and / am greatly
surprised that it has not been CON
sidered before this. The first thing
usually done when a society is
founded is to elect a treasurer.
Thus. If society Of nations is
formed, treasurer should at once
be appointed by the creation of
society of nations. The
solution Of the problem to my mind
is the foundation of financial So
ciety of nations in which all the ex-
penses of every belligerent opposed
to Germany shall be compiled into
one sum. An inventory of Ger
resources should then be
made and it should be made to
pay by every mark she can get to-
gether. Then there should be in
ternational taxation, including the
neutrals, to make up the balance"

AS TO MEN AND HUSBANDS
According to This Writer There Is q
Subtle Distinction Between
the Two Species.

Immediately after the wedding cere-
mOny men become dull and uninterest-
ing and turn into husbands, says a
writer in Judge. Husbands are all
just alike and can be sorted out of any
social gathering by the same set ex-
preston about the eyes and mouth.
1t is more trouble to teach a hus-
band to fetch and carry than fox
terrier puppy, and as rule the puppy
acts much better when there Is COM
pany around. Husbands wait until
some Sunday morning when you have
distinguished guests with you for the
week end. They burrow in the back
of the closet and pull things off the
high shelves and go through the rag
bag. Then they appear at the break
fast table in the coat Of one suit, the
trousers of another and a fancy vest,
with an inch-wide tie tied in four-in-
hand as q finish.
And when you advertise your hOr-
ror in frantic effort to convince the
visitors that he is suffering from tenn
porary alteration any and every hus-
band will assume an air Of bewildered
innocence and say:
"Why, what's the matter with this ?
It's just what / wear every Sunday
morning when there's no one here"
Husbands always keep the Sunday
papers on the floor. No man ever does
this until he Is married. His mother
will not let him.
Husbands read to you the printed
recipes they find on the woman's page
of the paper. They get enthusiastic
about some dish they have always de-
clared they would rather die than eat
and say:
"Now, there's an idea for you. Why
can't we ever have something like
that?"
Women acquire husband for much
the same reason that man gets a
cane. They are fearful bother, but
one presents better appearance with
one in hand.

Why Windows Should Be Open.

Sabourin mentions the great HOSTILE
ty Of the public to the open-window
treatment. Apparently it Is necessary
to compromise with the patients rela-
tives on this score. There is. Of course.
no objection to airing the room while
1t is empty. The windows should be
closed when the patient returns, to al
low him to undress, and the bed should
be as far as possible from the open
window, with its foot turned toward
the latter. The window should be wide
open after the patient Is abed. How
ever. 1t is advisable to establish toler-
ance by raising the window but short
distance the first night and increasing
1t gradually. There are various de-
vices to use in cold weather to keep
the wind from blowing on the patient,
chief of which is a screen to be placed
at the foot of the bed.--Journal de

CYCLlST UNITS WON PRAISE
How the "PetroI Cavalry" Did Its
Part In the Crushing Of the
Detested Hun.

During the recent actions in France
the military cyclist units have won
well-earned praise, London Tit-Blts
says.
When 1t is remembered that we'll
trained military cyclists can cover 60
miles a day on average roads and
come into action fit at the end Of the
ride something of their advantage over
cavalry can be realized. Cycles, I'M
like horses, do not tire rapidly, and,
furthermore, require neither food nor
drink.
In a rearguard action, when whole
armies are falling back into new posi-
tons. 1t is difficult to send up supplies
to horses, and even the transport Of
infantry in omnibuses causes conges-
ton Of the traffic. Cyclists. on the
other hand, can literally "get through
anywhere"
The men are all skilled riders, and
practiced shots, and, above all, well
trained in map reading and finding
their own way. Carrying the normal
equipment Of cartridges on their per-
son and further supply on each ma
chine, they come into action quickly
and bring their full fire power to bear.
It is now 30 years since military
cyclists were officially recognized
among the official forces of the crown,
but 1t was never thought that they
would play such valuable part rs
the "Petrol Cavalry" has done In this
great struggle.
