Something occurred when the mem

way of the sidewalk entrance at the
southwest corner of Seventeenth

The soldiers on guard have not

The officer in command of the SOL

orders to allow the visitors to enter

Immediate repairs were started on
the plane in the hope that it could
be fixed so as to permit the men to
resume the race, but late yesterday

that the wrecked plane would be

Britain Instructs Germany
to Help Coerce Soviet Russ

London. Oct. 15.-In connection
with the report from Germany that
England had instructed Germany to
cooperate in the coercion of soviet
Russia, the correspondent of The
Associated Press learns that a COM
munication of this nature was made
to Germany by the peace confer
ence.
Word Of the request to Germany
to participate in blockade of soviet
Russia came first from Berlin and
was later followed by reports from
neutral states, intimating that they,
too, had been requested to join in a
blockade. No definite announcement
of such contemplated measures had,
however, been made from Paris or
London, causing some adverse news
paper comment.
1t was stated in Paris that the
United States did not join with the
entente powers in asking Germany
to cooperate in such blockade and
the American delegation there did
not admit any American participa-
ton in an actual blockade against
Russia.

Hot Argument on
Omaha Riot Bill
tcontinued From Page one.>

when the bill comes up in committee
OF the whole Thursday there may be
1 very interesting debate. Repre-
I sntative Foster Aof Douglas county
told the committee that there were
some things in the bill that he would
oppose and so the house is due for
one Of the doctors flights of ora
tory.
Opposition in Senate. Il
, In the senate S. F. met with
similar opposition, although nobody
! lost their temper nor did Chairman,
Cordial OF the judiciary committee,
to whom the bill was referred, have
to choke off oratory. This bill
gives the county commissioners OF
al counties of the state the author
ity to issue bonds for the repair OF
court houses partially destroyed by
fire or other means and for the pur-
chase and preparation of new rec
ords destroyed. The questions was
raised by Senator Peterson. Senator
Johnson, Senator Taylor and one or
two others as to the desirability OF
making the bill apply to all coun-
ties, some contending that in some
Sof the small counties where there
was an out-of-date court house and
4 possible feeling against the vot-
ing of bonds for a new one that
somebody might burn the building
down and the commissioners would
have authority to erect new one
without vote of the people.
Mr.. Breen, appearing before the
committee, pointed out the main
features Of the bill, but contended
that there was a question involved
as to the constitutionality of any
bill for a similar purpose which
would give Douglas county and no
other county the authority, believing
it to be class legislation.
The committee discussed the, bill
for nearly two hours and finally re-
cessed so that the lawyers compos-
ing the committee might have time
to look into the matter more thor
ouRfly.
