lists were accused by Gustav Noske.
minister of defense. in the national
assembly today of complcating
Gcrmany's position abroad by ma
licious and unjust criticism OF the
military administration. He told
them they were licking the boots

missions in Berlin"
DR.. Herman Mueller, minister of
foreign affairs, admitted that many
soldiers from south German garri-
sons were going to the Baltic Prov
inces on fraudulent passports, add
ing that they were chiefly adven-
turers.
The minister declared lack OF dis
cipline made it easy for German
troops to go over into the Russian
service, and he asserted that people
were daily approaching the foreign
office with information to the effect
that the entente would be pleased
to see German troops fighting in
Russian units"
"If the entente is desirous of
having us withdraw the last Ger
man trooper from Russian forma-
tons" he said, I'VE might be per-
mitted to express the desire that the
entente request Russia to discon-
tinue attempts to attract Germans

IMMENSE SUMS
Sent EUROPE BY
JEWISH RELIEF
Near 100000 Disbursed
in One Month Of Sep
tember - Whole
Cargo of Soap.

New York, Oct. 10.-(Special.)-
Disbursements amounting to $685.
oo2.62 out of funds raised through
out the United States by the Amer
lean Jewish relief committee and
other Jewish Embarrassing organiza-
tions, were made during September
alone by the joint distribution COM
mittee for food, clothing, medicines
and other things needed for the re-
lief of war sufferers in eastern and
central Europe, Palestine and else
where, according to an official re-
port made public here today.
The cargo that went to Poland on
the second voyage of the westward
Ho" cost $50S,l2956 and the ship
load of kosher beef sent to the same
stricken country on the "Ashburn"
cost $286,42414.
Huge Cargo of Soap.
For soap sent overseas on the
"Thala" and consigned to Poland,
there was an outlay of $l5,249.60 and
S43,l53.s6 represented the balance of
the $4,000 pounds sterling allocated
for clothing to be bought in London.
For general relief in Lithuana
$l50,000 was expended and $500,000
was sent to Paris for distribution
at the discretion of the emergency
relief.
The cargo of kosher meat and cot
tonseed oil shipped on the "Polybi-
us" for people of the central powers
cost $287, ,249.4o, while an additional
SS00,000 went to Paris to aid refu-
gees in Vienna. The Zionist relief
organization in Russia was sent
$4,000 to reimburse that organiza-
ton for moneys paid out by it.

bureau during September and Octo-
Der. Nor we're the Jewish refugees

spirit seized them and I believe a
large part of the crowd, even many
who did not join the mob, were
with the mob.
The woeiul, pitiful weakness of
the police department, especially its
heads, was shown early in the day
when the mob was assembling.
Properly led, l believe the police
could have dispersed the mob as
late as 6 o'clock. Think how easily
it could have been done few
hours before when the disturbers
were few in number!
Failed in Big Crisis.
"The police heads failed in this
big crisis as they had failed before in
smaller matters. Alibis cannot hide
the fact that they failed; attempts
to put the blame for the riot on
someone else cannot dim the issue.
The fact that beautiful public
building was burned, that stores in
the heart of the city were looted,
that policemen surrendered their
guns and stars to mere youths. that
a mayor was beaten and nearly
lyncher, these facts mean only one
thing-absolute failure by heads of
the only department on which the
city had to maintain order.
at was simply the climax OF a
long list of glarng failures.
Religion should not enter into
the issue which is before the city
today. Pastors who have rallied to
the defense of Ringer and Eber-
stein, who are condemning criticism
which has proven to be more than
just, are suppressing the truth from
their congregations.
Worst Blot of All.
Former administrations at the
city hall have not been good, per-
haps, but troops were never sent to
Omaha during any other admins
tration to prevent rioting. There
have been riots in other cities, but
there has never been a riot to equal
the recent one in Omaha.
What Omaha needs is man to
take charge of that most important
department which the citizen de-
pcnds on for safety, and the main
tenance of law and order. 1t needs
an efficient man, not proven tall
ure.
Religion and nationality should
not be considered in the selection of
such a man. ] am not alone in what
| say. | know positively that very
large portion of Omaha's citizens,
good, law-abiding citizens, feel the
same way about things"

Government Consumption
Of Lumber During War

Washington. Oct. l0-A total
consumption of nearly o,500,000,000
feet of lumber by the government
during the war is shown in recent
figures compiled by R. c. Bryant,
industrial examiner of the United
States forest service. OF this
amount of lumber purchased direct
ly by the various government de-
partments, the army consumption
was nearly 5,500,006,000 feet: the
navy more than l20,000,000 feet. and
during 1918 the consumption of lum-
Der for boat construction by the
emergency fleet corporation was
nearly 8O0,000,000 feet.
Of the army consumption, air
plane construction took about 18l.-
100000 feet, more than half Of
which was spruce.

War Dances Taught
Girls Of London to
Walk With Grace

London. Oct. l0-London girls are
graceful and generally walk better
than their brothers because they are
fond of dancing, according to the
medical officer of the London
County council.
Teaching of dancing in public
schools no doubt greatly helped, if it
has not saved the situation in regard
to the physical development of Lon
don girls" said the medical officer.
Particularly noticeable is the already
arched instep of the girls in COM
parison with their own brothers
and with country children generally.
The relative absence of fat-foot
thus brought about is the founda-
tion of the grace of carriage which
the typical London girl of the ele-
mentary schools exhibits. In the
country schools no dancing is
taught nor do the children there
enjoy those outside stimuli to an
interest in dancing which are char
acteristic of London life"

Former Fiume Commander
To Meet With D'Annunzio

Triest, Oct. 10.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-General Grazioli.
former commander of the Italian
garrison at Fiume, left Triest for
Rome this evening on his way from
Fiume, where he was sent by the
government to confer with Gabrielle
d'Annunzio, whose irregular troops
are in possession of Fiume. Gen
eral Grazioli appeared confident and
cheerful, and his friends announced
that he had assured them that an
early solution of the Fiume difficult
tv would be reached.
Omaha daily bee., 1919-10-11

members OF the Omaha clergy
who still stand in their pulpits and
defend the Ringer administration
after the failure of the police de-
partment to stop riot and arson on
September %, are not only doing an
injustice to their congregations by
bringing politics into sacred re-
ligious worship, but are hiding the
true chaotic condition which the
Ringer administration has brought
in Omaha"
This is the statement of Rev. B.
Slime, pastor OF St. Mary Magdalene
church.
Shouldn't Suppress Truth.
Father Slime elaborated on this
statement by declaring that in his
belief politics was utterly foreign to
the sacred religious service. If
politics must be brought into the
church, however, it should be broad
minded, open politics, and not the
kind which suppresses truth, said
Father Slime.
II am firmly convinced that the
police department is to an extent
responsible for the riots of the fatal
Sunday" continued the Father
Slime. "By reviewing the series of
atrocities perpetrated by the police
department during the past eight
months any fair-minded man would
arrive at the same conclusion.
ST have in mind the morals squad,
although there are innumerable 9th
er blots on the departments record
I believe it was the lawless activity
of the morals squad, aided by other
lawless atrocities committed by the
police with evident sanction of Po-
lice Commissioner Ringer, that stir
red the people of Omaha to their
terrible acts during the riot.
you can't blame the people for
becoming restive when they were
constantly under the apprehension
that their homes might be invaded
by a group of rough men who
seemed to have no respect for the
sanctity of home or for woman
hood.
In Dangerous Mood.
"The morals squad was discon-
tinued, but not until the citizens OF
Omaha, many of them at least. had
been forced into a dangerous mood
"a mood for riots. Of course it
was only a small crowd which at
first attempted to force entrance to
the court house. Many who had
come to look on had no intention

 "The recent reduction in the price of tires has stimulated tire business greatly, because there remains no ex- cuse for car owner to buy non-stand- ard makes of tires.
