Washington, April 14.-The

the Supreme Court.
. The case was the result Of the
arrest of Homer Gudger at Lynch

court dismissed the case, finding
that although Gudger had more IL

THE RIGHT OF APPEAL

Paris, April 14.-The status OF
Amendments to the Covenant of the
League of Nations has been definite.
ly established SO far as Fthe
League of Nations Commission is
concerned with the American
amendment of the Monroe Doctrine,
and so far is the only amendment
to be given a place in the Covenant
by the Commission.
The French and japanese have
also made reservations which will
entitle them to appeal to the plena-
nv council of the Peace Conference
when it meets. Therefore these
qqustions are for the present left
open.
AS far as the questions before the
Peace Conference as a whole are
concerned they have more nearly
reached the position of being gotten
into shape than ever before and the
indications are that when the del
gates from Germany arrive at Yer
sailles on the date set the differenc-
es as far as Germany is concerned
| will have been arranged. The date
of this meeting will fall between
April 26 and May 5th, according to

it is not improbable that lsuch an

date when he addresses the House

WORKING OVER
ROAD QUESTION
County Commissioners of sur
rounding Counties here to-
day with Chairman Page
OF HIGHWAY COMMISSION

At the invitation of the Board of
County Commissioners of Wilson
County the Commissioners of the
surrounding counties met with Mr..
Frank Page. Chairman of the State
Highway Commission here today
and are now busily engaged in
working over the most feasible and
practicable plan for road improve
ment in this section. With Mr..
Page is Mr. r. E. Snowden who is
the Engineer for the eastern sec
ton of the state, or the section in
which Wilson and the counties con-
tiguous to this county are located.
He gave the Commissioners the val
ue of expert information.
Mr.. Page informed us that the
state was divided into four districts
and that a representative from the
Highway Commission would appear
before every Board meeting such as
gathered here today. The counties
as rule are grouping themselves
| for cooperative work The work OF
road building will be taken up with
| a view to giving the greatest num-
Der of people and the state as a
whole the greatest amount of ser
| vice. OF course said he, there was
the Central Highways and other
highways that are used by all
that must be looked after, and there
were sections of these that were not
being properly kept up. Where they
were not the law would compel the
counties where breaks occurred te
maintain. them and the cost OF TINS
would be borne by the state on
iftylffty basis.

ldance from all the surroundin

Many Walk Lincoln Streets
Rather Than Ask for Rooms

Lincoln, Sept. Failure of peo-
pie visiting the state fair to inquire
of the nearest policeman regarding
place to sleep was the cause of
many people walking the streets un-
til late hour searching for lodging.
The Commercial club maintains a
bureau both at the club and at the
intersection of two of the principal
streets where. upon simply making
the inquiry. rooms could be had for
the asking, yet people appear to be
afraid to ask for the information
necessary.
Hotels were filled early; in fact,
reservations were made in advance
at most of them, and it became. a
necessity for people to take to the

TENANTS WILL
RESIST RAISE
IN OFFICE rent
Renters in Brandeis Theater
Building Initiating Legal
Campaign Against Lease
Owners.

Aroused by an increase in
rentals effective October |, which
would in many instances approx
mate from 50 to 60 per cent, ten
ants of the Brandeis Theater build
ing, Seventeenth and Douglas
streets, are initiating a legal CAM
paign to prevent the alleged ex-
tortionate demands from going
into effect.
The fight on the proposed in
crease is led by Roy M. Harrop,
tenant of the building and secre-
tary of the Citizens and Taxpayers
league, Practically every lessee in
the building is cooperating in the
effort to prevent the proposed ad-
vance. Petitions are being circula-
ted among the tenants and money
is being subscribed to wage legal
war in the courts against the in
crease. An injunction which will
prevent the increase from becoming
effective is now under considera-
ton.
To Resist Eviction Processes.
Eviction processes will be re-
sisted by the tenants until a jury
can pass upon the legality of the
new rates, it was stated by Mr..
Harrop. Attorneys in the building
have been consulted and, according
to their Interpretation, a trial of
the case before a jury can be fore
ed, further stated Mr.. Harrop.
The Brandeis Theater building
was leased by the H. A. Wolf COM
pany about two weeks ago.
Tenants resisting alleged profit
eering demands of landlords have
been assured aid by the Citizens
and Taxpayers league. At a meet
ing last Monday the league, which
is composed of about 5000 Omaha
residents, passed resolutions en-
towering various committees to
investigate rent increases and to
offer aid to any tenants in oppos-
ing unreasonable advances.
Room 405 Of the building, occu-
pied by Mr.. Harrop. now rents for
SIC, and will be advanced to SIS,
the tenant stated. Other rooms in
the same building will advance
from $40 to $50, and in some in
