Legion Probe =
Shows Weekes'
Charges Untrue
Woman Candidate for Con-
gress Fails to Retract State
ment Ex-Soldiers Acted
Un-American.

Norfolk, Neb., Oct. 30.-(Special
Te1egram) A special committee of
the American Legion, appointed by
the state commander for the purpose
of investigating statements made by
Mrs. Marie Weekes of Norfolk and
to make recommendation to the
state organization, after celebrating
at some length and reading docu-
ments and listening to evidence FRI
day afternoon, passed resolutions in
which the charges are declared false; (;
that they have SO been declared by
| the state commander; that demands
for retraction have met with no re-
sponse. and that the entire matter
be given widespread publicity.
A. E. May of Omaha presided at
/ the committee proceedings, and H.
c. Cusack of North Bend was Sec
retary. The resolutions which were
adopted by the committee are as
Pass Resolutions.
"Whereas, The American Legion.
Department of Nebraska, is pledged
to uphold and defend the constitu-
ton of the United States of Amer
lica; to maintain law and order; to
foster and perpetuate 100 per cent
Americanism and to safeguard and
transmit to posterity the principles
OF justice, freedom and democracy;
and.
"Whereas, A special committee
has been appointed by the depart
ment commander of Nebraska to in
vcstigate charges publicly made by
Mrs. Marie Weekes of Norfolk,
Nab, candidate for public office,
that the American Legion of Ne
braska and certain of Its posts have
unlawfully attempted to prevent the
right of free speech. break up public
assemblies and committed other un-
lawful acts incompatible with the
constitution of the American Legion;
and,
Whereas, A careful and thorough
investigation conclusively shows that
such charges have no foundation in
fact and are wholly untrue; and,
Retraction Refused.
Whereas, The commander of the
Department of Nebraska has re-
quested that Mrs. Weekes retract
such charges or disclaim that they
were made by her authority.
Nov, therefore, it is the unani-
nous sense of this committee that,
because of the failure of any such
retraction or disclaimer by Mrs.
Weekes, the entire matter should be
made public, that it may be known
generally to the people Of the state
of Nebraska that the insinuations,
accusations and charges made by
Mrs. Marie Weekes against the
American Legion are false and un-
true, and that she has refused to
deny or retract those charges; and,
further. that it be made plain to the
public the exact stand the American
Legion of Nebraska takes at this
time, and shall take in the future,
upon the questions brought to the
attention of the commander of the
Department of Nebraska, in this in
stance"

Republican.

The republican campaign in Ne
braska has been growing steadily
in force and volume during the last
six weeks, and reaches the peak point
with the close of the weeks ac-
tivities. Our speakers have covered
every section of the state, except
a few isolated points, and where
ever they have gone an abundance
of literature preceded them and has
been givene widespread distribution.
Points not reached with speakers
have been given special care in the
distribution of literature.
The largely increased vote. due
to the enfranchisement of women
and, the uncertainty as to what ex-
tent they will avail themselves of
the ballot, makes it difficult to es-
innate the total vote likely to be
cast next Tuesday. The size of the re-
publican majority will. of course,
depend on the extent to which wom-
en- avail themselves of the ballot.
Not even the most ardent democrat
expects anything else than an over
whelming majority in Nebraska for
the republican national ticket. That
the republican state and congress
sional ticket will be elected is gen.
orally conceded; the only element of
doubt being as to the governor
ship.
There is no senatorial election in
Nebraska this year, and because of
this only few speakers of national
reputation have been sent into the
state and the burden of the speaking
campaign has developed on Senator
Norris, six republican congressman,
Governor McKelvie, Attorney Gen
eral Davis and other state speakers.
including both men, and women, all
of whom have been doing splendid
service and whose meetings, sconsid-
ering the apathetic conditions, which
prevailed through the greater part
of the campaign, have been we'll at
tended.
hearepublican hosts are alert,
confident and determined on winning
a smashing victory. We are satisfied
with conditions and ready for the
battle of the ballots.

HE DARKENED HIS
GRAY HAIR
Tells How He Did 1t.

Mr.. J. A. McCrea, a well-known
resident of California, who was
called Daddy and Grandpa on ac-
count of his white hair, and who
darkened itwith homemade mix
ture, recently made the following
statement:
"Anyone can prepare a simple
mixture at home that will darken
gray hair, and make it soft and
glossy. To a half-pint of water add
l ounce Of bay rum, a small box of
Barbo Compound and n ounce Of
glycerine.
These ingredients can be bought
at any drug store at very little cost.
Apply to the hair twice a, week un-
til the desired shade is obtained. It
does not color the scalp, is not
sticky or greasy and does not rub
off"

(COntlnue0 from fA80 One.D
the governor had considerable diff.
ficulty making his way to the stage
He finally managed to shoulder hi:
way through the throng. and the
women quickly recognized him with
tumultuous applause.
Mrs. George Bass, chairman of the
women's bureau of the democratic
national committee, introduced the
governor.
"The women are going to elect
you, Governor Cox" woman in the
audience cried shrilly. The crowd ap-
plauded.
"Well, I'm too chivalorus to deny
it." returned the governor, and the
crowd laughed heartily.
Charges Money In Churches.
Governor Cox in his speech to
the women, charged that the power
of money was being used to in
nuence the pulpit against the league
of nations. Pastors who have
preached sermons for the league
haye been warned by rich members
of their congregations to desist, he
asserted.
AT Kent, o., yesterday" he said,
"a pastor told me that he expected
to get his walking papers after the
! election because he had advocated
the league in some of his sermons.
At Rochester, another pastor who
had preached in favor of the league
was warned by righ members of his
congregation that he had better not
do it." y
The governor told the women he
never would forget the scene of
the White House when he visited
President Wilson and conferred with
him about the league of nations last
summer.
at was one of the saddest things
in all history" he.said. II simply can
not understand why policy Of
malignant hate should be practiced
against man who has been as clear
ly victim of the war as any soldier
who was wounded on the field of
battle. He thinks of one thing and
cne thing only, and that is that the
promise he gave to the mothers oi
America has not been kept. / feel
sure that if he knew that the promise
would be kept he would be willing to
conclude his participation in affairs
both public and private"
"a Women Helpful.
Governor Cox told the audience
he was mot afraid of the participa
ton Of the women in politics" He
declared that they had always been
more helpful than men in the fight
for progressive and humanitarian
legislation in Ohio. There were
Kisses when he declared that Sena-
tor Harding led the forces of reac-

women "in many administrative
positions" if he won Tuesday. \
Just as the American troops ar

Statements of Committees
Democratic.

We have just completed a general
survey of the state which is based OH
reports from our precinct committee
men and committeewomen, and it is
our opinion that the result next
Tuesday holds a surprise in store for
political prophets. Nebraska is de-
cidedly in the doubtful column as
far as the national ticket is con-
cerned. but we are confident that
Governor Cox will have a mapority
of the vote cast.
The demand for literature ire
tanning to the league of nations for
the last two weeks has been beyond
our expectations and supply or
hand, but we have met all require
ments by being able tb receive a
new supply every two or three days.
Both men and women have been in
.erested, and hundreds of letters asks
ing, for literature have been re-
ceived the last four or five days from
every part of the state. Up to the
present time we have had nothing to
base our claim upon that would war
rant our belief that we would carry
the state for Governor Cox but our
final sum-up of the situation is that
he has as good a chance as his op-
ponent.
We are confident that John H.
Morehead will be elected. Prac-
tically every county in the state will
give him substantial vote as men
and women of all parties are for
him because of the fight he has made
against extravaganza and reckless
expenditures ,of-state money the last
two years. Voters generally are
we'll informed as to the tax question
and there can be no doubt as to who
will get their support. Mr.. More.
head has met every issue square1y
and the opposition has been forced to
resort to petty politics for trumped-
up issues that were handled
under cover. Brass band tactics
have not been resorted to at any
time and personalities have had no
place in the campaign His fight
has been made entirely in the open
and we are sure that his plurality
over Mr.. McKelvie will, be the
largest ever given a candidate for
governor in the state.
Nebraska will divide honors as to
congressman with a possible cleo
ton Of four.
