NATURAL CAUSES RESPONSIBLE FOR
 PRICE OF MILK

Natural causes, rather than a de- sire on the part of the producers to keep prices high, are responsible for the present cost of milk, according to I. c. Davis, acting director of ex- tension for Connecticut Agricultural College.
 In answering inquiries from the Manufacturers Association of Con necticut as to the possibilities of re- ducing the cost of milk for the bene- 1ft of laborinE men and their families Mir. Davis says:
 The cost of milk to the consumer is made up very largely of three fac tors as follows: The cost of labor in production and distribution, the cost of labor in producing the feeds on the farm for the production of milk. and the cost of grain bought for feeding of COWS. This grain Is bought largely from the central West
 "Following are the facts with re- gard to the labor situation:
 Farm labor which cost from $50 to s35 per month four years ago, costs ss5 to sTo today. The various mill products which are fed cows cost from s22 to s35 q ton four years ago The cost today is from $50 to S75 9 ton. Cows that could be bought for s6O or sso four years ago are worth from s110 to s225 today
 Tho price of milk to the con sumner as related to the cost of pro- duction is no higher today than it was four years ago Furthermore. while am not accurately informed, l question whether 1t requires T greater proportion of the labor mans total income to buy a quart of milk today than 1t did then
 At the present price of 15c quart, milk is by far the cheapest source of animal food for either children or adults."

1 InAzA WHEN BUYING ASPIRIN S&Z ALWAYS SAY FRAZER"
 Ask for "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin'' in a Bayer package-marked with HBayer Cross''

Don't buy Aspirin tablets in a pill box. Insist on getting the Bayer package with the safety "Bayer Cross" on both package and on tablets. No other way!
 You must say "Bayer." Never ask for merely Aspirin tablets. The name 'Bayer" means you are getting the genuine "Bayer Tablets of Aspirin '' proven safe by millions of people.

SHOT WELL WILL
take NO ACTION
IN M'CABE DEATH
Before Expiring, Man Made
Statement That He Pointed
Gun at Officer, OFF,
CiaI Says.

County Attorney A. V. Shotwell
has no information which would
warrant any action in connection
with the shooting of Homer McCabe
by Policeman Charles Akromis
Saturday night, February IS. An in
quest in connection with the case
was held last Saturday, the recon-
mendations of the jury being that
the county attorney should investi-
gate.
Mr.. Shotwell states that he in
vestigated the case on the Sunday
following the shooting, and holds a
statement signed by McCabe in the
presence of witnesses, which reads
in part;
"Furlong gave me his gun and said
that the officer had his bottle of
whisky, and told me to take it away
from him. / went up to the officer
and told him to let Usher and Byrnes
go, and had the gun in my hand. l
said nothing to the officer about the
bottle of whisky. I pointed the gun
at the officer. He told me to put it
down. | started to back away and
was still holding the gun. | am not
sure whether I dropped the gun be-
fore the officer shot, or after he shot.
| told him that he knew | would not
shoot. The gun was not loaded"

Women Suffragists to
Decide if Contented
With a Partial Vote
Suffrage advice is needed.

Suffrage advice is needed.
Will the Nebraska suffragists be
content with partial suffrage until
the federal amendment is passed?
Or should they go into a state cant
paign for full suffrage? These ques-
tons the state suffrage board would
like to have the women answer.
Mrs. w. +. Barley, president of
the state suffrage association, has
issued a circular letter asking for
advice on this question. Definite ac-
ton will probably be taken Thurs
day morning at meeting of the
state board to be held in Lincoln.
The letter reads in part:
IF this bill passes it means cam
paign in 1920, first at the primaries
to secure the party circle vote, and
in November to carry the amend
ment.
"The new constitution will also
be submitted to the people at the
same election This constitution will
carry a similar measure granting
suffrage to women. 1t is difficult to
carry a new constitution, but the
men are hopeful.
Should we allow the bill to pass.
or be content with partial suffrage
until the federal amendment is rati-
fed. possibly not until 1924 or 1926?
you should consider two points;
We vote for president at the same
election which allows us to work
directly in the homes and at the
polls. =,
"Many men claim that with the
foreign or six months vote elimin-
ated, we can easily carry. Others
feel that the two measures will be
confusing.

o. Goodwin and Arthur Thomas Of
the bureau of publicity, on their re-
turn from the convention of the Ne
braska Press association at Lincoln.
A special train will leave Omaha
and travel to Gering and return.
About 200 newspaper men are ex-
pected to make the trip. The Ne
braska Press association, the Gering
Community club and the Omaha Blu
reau of Publicity will cooperate in
making arrangements. The bureau
of publicity invited the newspaper
men to meet in Omaha and make
the entire trip.
At meeting of the executive
committee of the Nebraska Press
association, the following commit
tee was appointed to manage the
special train: Will c. Israel, Have

DISCHARGED men
TO Be AIDED BY
ORGANIZATION
General Wood Emphasizes the
Need for Attention to Dis
charged Men; Establish
Reading Room.

A new squirt in communal work
for soldiers, emphasizing the fact
that though the war may be over,
the community's duty to men in uni
form is not, was outlined at a meet
ing Of representatives of all war
camp recreational agencies, the
Chamber OF Commerce, Red Cross
and Police Commissioner Ringer in
the Chamber of Commerce.
The meeting was called by w. R.
Tagg, chairman of Omaha Red
Cross chapter, in response to an
urgent request by telegram from
General Wood, commander of the
Department OF the West.
Down Town Reading Room.
A downtown lounging and read
ing room and information desk,
similar to the one in the Union
station, will be opened on Farnam
street somewhere between Four
teenth and Sixteenth for the con-
venience of the soldiers. 1t will
probably be conducted by the Red
Cross canteen corps under Mrs.
Luther Kountze, Dean Ringer,
Gould Dietz and J. w, Gamble are
the committee in charge.
Occupying the leisure moments of
soldiers who are in Omaha between
train times is the problem of an
other committee. Mrs. Kountze and
Harry Murrison of the War Camp
Community service met with theat-
rical men today to arrange for the
provision of tickets whenever need
ed. If this cannot be arranged, a
fund for theater tickets will prob
ably be created.
A permanent organization until
this form OF work is no longer nc
cessary, was voted. w. B. Tagg was
named chairman and H. O. Wilhelm
secretary. The next meeting will be
held Saturday noon in the Chamber
Of Commerce. A report of what is
being done for soldiers and what ad-
ditional work is planned, will be for
warded to General Wood, who EN-
phasized the need for special at
tention to he given discharged sol
diers en- route home. Many are be-
ing robbed OF their last money, are
out of employment and wander
about the streets without food, he
said He asked for a report of what
Omaha was doing in the care of SOL
diers.
While expressions of opinion made
were that the Red Cross canteen
corps, War Camp Community serv-
ice and Chamber of Commerce, aud
the home service section of the Red
Cross were looking after their needs,
it was recommended further efforts
be put forth.

MAYOR OPPOSES
BILL FOR POWER
IN LIGHT CASE
Says Endorsement Of the Bill
Would Make Council Merely
Rubber Stamp for the
Water Board.

Mayor Smith surprised the suo-
porters of House Roll $50 when he
made a speech in city council this
morning opposing it. The bill pro-
vides that the Omaha Water board
shall have the power to extend the
electric light plant which it is now
operating at the Florence pumping
station and shall be able to ask the
people to vote bonds for this extern
sion without limit.
I'm opposed to making this coun-
Gil merely a rubber stamp for the
water board" declared the mayor.
City council passed resolution
last Tuesday unanimously endorsing
the bill and asking the legislature
to pass it without amendment. All
the city council except the mayor
still hold to this view and there were
sharp passes with the mayor this
morning.
Says Smith Favored Bill.
w. F. Baxter was present and de-
clared the mayor had told him last
week that he was strongly in favor
Of the bill and would go to Lincoln
to urge its passage?
This means is the only means you
have of dealing with the electric
light company" declared Mr., Bax-
ter. "The supreme court has ruled
that the company has a perpetual
franchise.
"If the present equipment of the
Florence plant is used to start in
competitive way, the Nebraska Pow
err company will, perhaps, see great
light, and will come to you with
proposition to sell their plant. The
city can compete. 1t is the only way
outside of a court fight of many
years and the payment of an enor-
nous price for the franchise"
Reviews the History.
R. B. Howell, general manager OF
the Metropolitan Water District of
Omaha, reviewed the history of the
electric company.
"The Nebraska Power company is
owned, not by little stockholders,
but by the greatest electric trust in
the world, the General Electric COM
pany," he said. after they had got-
ten Governor Moorehead to veto our
bill in 1915 the Commercial club
here made an investigation at the in
of the electric company and
they found, by the books of the ccm-
pany, that the physical valuation of
the plant was $3,200,000. Within
year after that the company reor-
ganized on a valuation of $l2, 100000.
This is the outfit we have got to
fight. They have been stock Jug
CLING with the people of Omaha for
years.
1--WE have found that at the Flor
ence plant we can make electricity
at three-fourths of cent per kilo-
watt hour. The people of Omaha
are paying 6 cents now. They were
paying IA cents in 1912. If the COM
pany can sell the electricity now at
present prices for s cents, what were
they doing in 1912? They were rob-
bling the people at an enormous
rate.
1--WE have competing electric
light plants elsewhere in this state,
in Lincoln, Fremont, Grand Island
and other places.
The mayor intiinated that if the
bill would specify that the electric
ity shall be manufactured at the
Florence station he might favor
its passage.

breach of contract which was en-

reason of alleged failure to make de-
liveries, the plaintiff was unable to
carry out paving contracts which he
had made.
