of no cause of action. Drake sued

the protection before the fill to the

WANTS PROTEST
MEETINGS HELD
AGAINST LEAGUE
Former Lieutenant Governor
Howard Urges People of
Nebraska to Take In
mediate Action.

Lincoln, July 2l.-Former Lien
tenant Governor Edgar Howard of
Columbus was in the city Monday
in the interests of the movement
for an organization against the rati-
fication of the league of nations as
advocated by President Wilson.
Mr.. Howard has travelled over the
state considerably and he says that
there is an overwhelming sentiment
against any entangling alliances on
the part of the United States with
any foreign countries which are
likely TO take from us our rights as
an independent and liberty-loving
nation.
Regarding the matter he has
issued the following:
Recently I published an appeal for 100
suing a call for mass meeting in Ne
braska. the object of the meeting being
to protest against and to devise ways and
means to prevent the ratification Of
league of nations covenant, or that part
of the covenant which constitutes an Of
fensive and defensive alliance between TIE
government of the United States and the
government OF any monarch in Europe or
in Asia.
Instead of hundreds answering the call.
thousands have eagerly asked that their
own names might be attached to such
call.
Call Public Meetings.
In consultation with many true Amer
leans 1t had been planned to call such
state mass meeting for some day next
week on the state capitol grounds in Lin
coin. But more mature deliberation and
consideration has developed a plan Of ac
ton which I believe will be more fruitful
than a hastily-caled state mass meeting
during the hot weather season. This plan
provides for the early calling of public
mass meetings In every county (such as
the mass meeting in Dodge county last
week.. Any number of true Americans in
any county can issue a call for such
meeting inviting to the meeting all citi-
zens who are opposed to any manner of
alliance between the government of the
United States and any government in
Europe or in Asia I suggest three lines
First-The passage of resolutions of
protest against any feature of the league
of nations covenant which is in effect an
offensive and defensive alliance between
the government of the United States and
the government Of any nation in Europe

car at any rate less than 80 cents a

Law GOVERNING
AUTO NUMBERS
Dealers Not Allowed to Use
License Plates on Other
Than Demonstrate.
ing Cars.

Lincoln, July 2l.-Automobile
dealers are liable to find themselves
in a great deal of trouble if they
do not cease using their dealers
numbers for personal use. The new
automobile law strictly prohibits a
dealer from using his dealers IL
cense on cars which are not being
demonstrated. He must confine the
use of the number to trips where
he is demonstrating the car for sale
purposes.
1t has come to the attention of
the automobile department that the
law is being broken all over the
country. 1t is no infrequent thing
10 see a dealers number on Sun
day or in the evening on several
cars being used purely for pleasure
and this must cease, according to
State Engineer Johnson.
Discussing the law State Engi-
neer Johnson says:
an passing house bill 299 at the
1919 session of the legislature, it
. was the intention of the men draft
5 ing the bill, also the members of
the legislature, that all dealers and
car users should pay the same for
all classes of cars, excepting those
cars used by dealers for demon
strating purposes only.
Intent of Law Clear.
IF dealer has a private car for
himself and family, or has separ-
ate truck, he would pay the same
lax as any other individual or bust
ness man, and the purpose and in
tent of this law seems to be very
clear.
Section 10 states that each manu-
. facturer or dealer doing business in
the state. may register one motor
vehicle in each class manufactured
and he may secure numbers for as
many vehicles in the same class as
he has to demonstrate. Section 10
also provides that a purchaser may
keep a dealers registration num-
Der for a period not exceeding 10
days. 1t also provides that the Sec
ton does not refer or apply to
motor vehicles operators, by deal
or for his private use or for hire.
Section 20 provides that all cleo

trically driven vehicles shall consti-
tute a class; all vehicles propelled
by steam, shall constitute a class,
all vehicles propelled by gas explo-
sives weighing less than 1000
pounds a class: all cars and trucks
or more than 1000 pounds a class.
Section 0 also provides that dealer
shall comply in all other respects
with the provisions of the act.
The reason for the special con-
sideration of dealers for cars being
used for demonstrating purposes,
is that such cars are sold and reg
istered by the purchaser during the
year.
Sections 1o and 20 of the act refer
to dealers and does not make any
distinction between dealers of new
or secondhand cars. The tax should
be paid on the class of car handled,
regardless of the make.

DENY FRICTION
BETWEEN WILSON
AND HITCHCOCK
umulty Says Reports Without
Foundation; Senator Secre
retary Makes Statement.
BY c. E. SNYDER
(Staff Correspondent Of The Omaha Bee)
WASHINGTON. Bureau. Omaha Bee

Washington, Bureau, Omaha Bee,
Washington. D. c., July 12.-Ac-
cording to statement given out
by Secretary Tumulty today, there is
not the slightest foundation what
ever in the stories published in New
York newspapers of friction be-
tween the President and Senator
Hitchcock and says that later date
Senator Hitchcock will be called in
conference on all the phases of the
peace treaty.
Earl B. Gaddis, secretary to Sena-
tor Hitchcock gave out the follow
ing statement, after consultation
with the white house:
Senator Hitchcock is spending a
few days at Swampscott, Mass, as
he promised his family he would do,
after the speech by the president.
He will return to the city in time
for the senate session on Monday.
The senator has not relinquished his
interest in the league, nor has he
had occasion to change his mind
with respect to its approval by the
senate"
Senator Swanson of Virginia also
denies the rumor that he has been
selected to lead the fight for the
league of nations. However, it will
be interesting to watch the move
ments of those favorable to the
league from this one, and see just
how earnest Senator Hitchcock is
in having the league and the treaty
adopted as it came from the presi-
dents hands.
At the meeting of the republican
members of the ways and means
committee Saturday morning, it was
agreed that Chairman Fordney
should withdraw the committee bill
repeating the so-called luxury taxes,
which Mr.. Fordney did during the
session of the house. When asked
the reason for this course, Mr..
Fordney stated it was done on the
recommendation of Commissioner
Roper of the internal revenue bu-
reau wherein he stated that the rev.
enues anticipated were not likely to
be as large as had been expected
and that every cent of money was
needed to run the government dur
ing the present fiscal year.

WILSON RESCUES
DAYLIGHT SAVING
ACT FROM REPEAL
Veto Of Agricultural Bill Will
Come to Test in the
House Monday

Washington, July 1.-THE day
light savings law was rescued from
repeal Saturday by President Viii
sons veto of the agricultural appro-
priation bill.
The president also vetoed the
sundry civil appropriation bill be-
cause, he said, by restricting funds.
it crippled the work of rehabiltat-
ing and restoring disabled soldiers
and sailors to civil life.
The latter veto apparently was
accepted by congress without con-
test and the sundry civil bill went
back to committee to be reframed.
Veto of daylight saving was not
accepted so readily. although the
prevailing opinion was that nee
essary two-thirds vote to repass it
over the presidents head probably
would not be mustered.
The first test will come in the
house Monday when, according to
announcement. Republican leader
Mondell or Chairman Haugen of
the agriculture committee will move
the repassage of the bill, with the
daylight saving repeal intact, over
the presidential veto.
Both bills provide funds for which
agencies of the government long
have been wanting They already
are months behind schedule because
they failed of ordinary passage in
the last congress-.
