EASTER PARADE :
HELD IN SPITE
OF BAD WEATHER
Omaha Women Brave Snow
and Wind in Fashionable
Creations for Annual
Show Sunday.

Though Easter Sunday was bleak
with wind howling OUT OF the north
and the ground covered with snow
the fair "sect" of Omaha was not
bluffed by this dying gasp OF winter
The fair creatures went to church
dressed in all their lovely new
clothes. and Solomon in all his
glory was not arrayed like one o.
these believe us!
Wher a sweet creature has been
p!anpi' : for weeks and weeks. and
has been visiting all the stores on
shopping trips and has tried on
things a hundred times or so, all in
anticipation OF Easter Sunday, do
you think a bit OF a gale and few
srow drifts are going to keep her
from wearing her new spring suit
and her bonnet of straw.
Churches Well Attended.
Not if she knows it, bless her!
And if you were in church yester-
day. which you certainly should
have been, you know this is all true.
Milady, looking very devout and
stylish, was there by the thousand
all dressed up like a million dollars,
displaying the art of Paquin and our
local sartorialists.
The weather interfered somewhat
with the fashion promenade along
Farnam street and some other
thoroughfares as we'll as the fashion
snow in automobiles. But. wherever
yen observed the fair ones. You, were
filled witt; the assurance that they
hadn't worn their old clothes be-
cause Of the weather like poor mere
man would DC. if he had a new
suit, which few of them have these
days.
It was a beautiful Easter in Oma-
ha-outside of the weather.

HIGH WATER IS
DRIVING MANY
OUT OF HOMES
River Rises Rapidly and Fami'
lies Are Taken From
Their Homes in Row
Boats.

Eight Or ten families living in the
vicinity of Florence lake were food
ed out Of their homes by water
when the river and lake climbed over
banks and submerged the country
between Ninth and Sixteenth streets
with nearly two feet Of water.
The river was rising at the rate
of four inches an hour all Friday
night. Only the quantities Of float
ing ice on the surface of the lake
prevented water from breaio&H
through the dixie and flooding E4A
Omaha. The wind was high ali Sum
day afternoon, but the ice kept the
waves down.
Last night the water was still ris-
ing at the rate OF an inch an hour.
The wind had subsidized, however,
and dangers Of breaking the dixie
was thought to be past.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dan Rowman and
three children were taken from their
home in rowboats, as were several
other families. Ninth street was
completely submerged. At least two
feet or water were SldnQ1nE on NuH-
beck's corner, Ninth and Gust
streets.
Water was flowing across Six
teenth street to depth Of foot
and a half at the residence Of
Charles Sesseman, 62O2 North Six
teenth street.
Two families living on the north
end of Ninth street reported to the
police that they were rnarooued and
that the water was rising every min
ute. Thfee inches of water were re-
ported running across the floofs Of
their homes when their appeal for
assistance was made.
Police were sent to the scene in
boats to rescue the families held
prisoners.

More Than Score of Wartime
Emergency Acts Will Be Ter
minated if Porter Resolution,
Pending in House, Is Passed.
DEMOCRATS USE PULL
TOLlFT RESTRICTIONS
Agitation by Republicans May
Hasten Lifting Of Russian
Trade Embargo-Probabili
Of Veto of Measure Strong.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington. April 4.-More than
a score Of wartime laws will be ter
minated If the Porter peace resolu-
ton pending in the house and set
tor action next week is adopted IN
both branches of congress and
signed by the president. Lifting OF
trade restrictions with Russia would
be one Of the results.
Agitation by the republicans i'll
congress in behalf OF the peace reso-
luton. which it appears probable
will be vetoed by President Wilson,
may in any event hasten the lifting
Of the Russian embargo by the
White House.
The Republicans are declared to be
willing that the president should
bear the responsibility OF preventing
me placing OF the United States OH
a peace basis. Hence they are anx-
ious to put the peace resolution up
10 him and even if he vetoes it,
t,ev will feel the country will at
tach to him whatever blame there
ll.ay be for the continuance of war
time laws.
President Has Same Power.
democratic leaders in the house
,are advancing as one argument
against the resolution the fact that
it does nothing that the. president
corld not do without any action by
congress. That is to say the presi-
dent could cease to exercise what
powers he still avails himself OF
under the wartime laws.
Lifting of the last wartime re-
strictions, such as the embargo on
trade with Russia. would produce
practically the same effect as the
repeal OF the laws under which these
restrictions arc imposed. The presi-
dent would continue to possess la
tent authority. but fail to exercise
It would mean no particular cause
81 embarrassment for business men
who are chof;ng under the present
ret; tape and restraint.
The republican reply to this demo
cratic argument is that the trouble
is the president doesn't chose to
stop exercising his wartime authorl-
ty, hence the necessity of taking it
away from him.
Democrats Uuse Influence.
To take the teeth out of the re-
publican contention and rob the
party of campaign issue the demo-
Gratis undoubtedly exerted their in

Paris-France, Great Britain and

limits of the areas in which the re-

by the same document

This agreement, it developed, was
signed at Sevres, August 10, the day
the public ceremonial of the signig Of
the peace treaty with Turkey took
place. Although the agreement, it is
explained, is not considered a secret
one, it nevertheless never has been
of nearly three months since the sign

ment was to come into force and be
published at the time the Turkish
peace treaty should go into effect. This
date is still an uncertainty
British Sphere in Doubt.
In connection with examination OF
the text of the agreement now avail
able, attention is being called here to
the fact that while the treaty defines
the spheres of influence Of France and
Italy-recognizing the special inter-
ests of France in Cilicia and the West
ern part of Kurdistan bordering on
Syria, and of Italy in Southern Ana.
tolia-the British spheres of influence
are not only underlined but are not
mentioned. This has raised the ques-
ton if the agreement is susceptible of

terests may be held to extend to any
or all the remaining parts of tie Turk

Diplomatic Support Pledged.
It is noted also, that while the agree.
ment does not take the form of an al
lance, it pledges the contracting
powers to render diplomatic support
TO each other in maintaining their re.
spective positions in the areas in
which their special interests are re-
cognized."

vides for the exploitation of the Bag

equally interested. II gives the ex-
ploitation of the Heraolea coal mines,

vides that nothing contained in it

to the various areas for commercial
and economic purposes.
