Head of Bible Students Asso.
citation Says World Will Not
Be Destroyed by Com
ing of Lord.

, Several thousand Omahans were
assured the world would come to an
end in 1925, by J. F. Rutherford,
president OF the international Bible
Students association. in his speech,
Millions Now Living Will Never
Die" at the Auditorium yesterday
afternoon.
Mr.. Rutherford also declared thou
sands i'll this City and millions on
the earth would be restored to
health and youth and live into in
hnity when this end comes, scoffing
at the belief the world would be
destroyed by the coming of the
Lord -..

cease to be bald. The Skin OF old
men will become fresh. the teeth
perfect: old men shall become young
and even beautiful We shall be
lifted up to perfection OF body and
health" d..
Proven by Scriptures.
Mr.. Rutherford quoted the scrip
lures and writings of the prophets
to prove his assertion the earth
would end in 1928. He laid enl-
phasis on the recolonization OF Palcs-
tine as proof the period OF
change" was approaching.
The favor OF God is passing from
the Gentle to the Jew" he asserted
II say Palestine will become the
capital OF the world, and I'm not
guessing about it. The war between
Russia and Turkey in 1873 resulted
in the Turks granting the Jews in
Palestine more rights. This was
prophesied. Just 40 years later. in
1918. the move to establish a Jewish
government in Palestine got under
way. Jews are returning there to
the extent OF 1000 a month, thus
fulfilling prophecy made 1000
years ago.
Mr.. Rutherford said the time of
the Gentiles" ended in 1914 and the
day of the Jews had begun, that "un-
satisfactory business conditions"
was another sign and that the
present order OF, society was disin-
tegrating.
He said the world war. interna-
tional differences. famine and pesti-
lence which descended on the
world. were all prophesied

Hesa lso asserted newspapers attempt

league were acting in the behalf Of
big business, and predicted even
worse conditions in the world before

ton occurs.
Mr.. Rutherford is known for his
assertions, immortality of the soul
supported by nothing except
Satan's ,falsehood,' that the dead
are not conscious or able to conf
munlcate with the living because
resurrection has not yet come and
that the "so-called science of com.
munlcatng with the dead is
dcmonism."
He holds that the dead will be
awakened on the day OF resurrection

HISTORICAL ROMANCE
TO BE SEEN AT QUEEN

The three largest cities in the
East-New York, Philadelphia and
Boston-have all very recently play
ed that gorgeous historical drama,
Deception" and to Wilmington next
week at the Queen the film will come
for another glorified engagement
The critics of all three OF these cities
nave used their most glowing express
sions; have called into play their
most elaborate words all to describe
and to shout the praises of "Decep-
ton"
Deception" is an historical drama.
Its story is that of Henry VIII. the
blun and vulgar king Of England in
the sixteenth century. The story is
not dry and overcrowded with facts
or medieval English history. On the
contrary the characters are clear cut
and romantic all the while conform
ing with the facts that history re-
lates OF them. There is stranger ro-
nance in fact than in fiction. Never
was this more clearly demonstrated
than in Deception" The second
wire OF Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn, is
the heroine. The life story Of this
sad queen Of England is pitiful and
even glorious at times Her SUI
terings and her sorrows showed her
more sinned against than SHINING.
NO less than seven thousand per
sons and four hundred horses take

PROSECUTIONS in
FEDERAL COURT
Charges That Criminal Partnership
Between Coal Operators, Miners
and Retailers Exist.
by The Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May "a
criminal partnership between soft coal
operators, miners and retailers has ex-
! listed for many years, according to the
charge Of the government in its anti
trust prosecution which began in the
federal court here today.
The indictment is directed at 226
persons and corporations and is in five
counts, each charging violation Of the
Sherman antitrust law.
Among the individual defendants are
John l.. Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers of America; D. B.
Wentz, president of the National Coal
association, many others of both or
CARNATIONS and some Of the most
prominent operators in the country.
The miners officials under indict-
ment number 80, the operators, re-
tallers and their employees IS; the
corporate defendants 90 The defend
ants reside in six states-Missouri. Ill
inois, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio and
pennsylvania. Taken as g. whole the
indictments charge: First, restraint
or trade; second, restraint of COM
merce; third, restraint of trade and
commerce; fourth, conspiracy to mo-
nopolize and fifth, monopolization.
The indictment is estimated to con-
tain $4,000 words, one paragraph Of
which says: THAT at various Joint
conferences, miners and oDerators
agreed and arranged that they were
partners in the mining, production and
distribution of bituminous coal in the
several states, and that they should
and would aid and assist each other in
their plans and efforts to increase
wages, increase prices. create short
ages and limit production and distri-
button; that bituminous coal should
not be sold at any time for a price
that did not al he time yield a profit
10 the operators; that whatever in
crease of wages OF miners should be
agreed upon. should be added to the
price OF coal; that competition among
operators should be eliminated by or
sanization among operators and such
other methods and means as would be
effective therefor; that the
means of increasing the cost of pro-
ductton and the price OF coal was by
closing down and keeping idle the
coal miners"
The indictment also attacks the
famous CHECK off, system of paying
union dues of miners by which the op-
orators virtually act as a collecting
agency of the union by Withholding
part of the miners wages and paying
this to the union.
The 1920 coal shortage. according to
the indictment was manufactured by
the operators ''as a part OF the general
plan Of conspiracy"
BY refusing to contract for future
deliveries except 'for a price which
would be the ruling price at the time
Of delivery the operators are charged

SUM PROPOSED
FOR EDUCATION
Appropriation Bills for Higher Institu-
lions Of Learning Introduced.
(Ry JOHN C. TRicE)


TALLAHASSEE, May 8. Senator
Lowry put in the appropriation bills for
the higher institutions of learning in the
senate Monday afternoon, there being a
total of $1,3S3,000 in the bill. This is
the cut recommended by the board of
education from the board Of control bud
get but since 1t is an increase of more
than $550,000 over the appropriations
granted by the legislature two years
ago. it may be seen that the institu-
tions are not being treated in a niggardly
manner. Following are the amounts in
the bill:
University of Florida, 100000; State
College for Women, $50. 900; Experiment
Station, 60,000 school for the deaf and
blind. s225,000; negro college at ITALIA
hassee, 100000; expense board Of con-
troll, $4,000; summer schools. 100000
In addition to this there were separate
bills for the support OF the State Plant
board and for the keeping up OF the
agricultural and home economics work in
cooperation with the federal government.
For the plant board there was appro-
priated $250,000, which is to take care
of all plant pests eradication and Of the
foul brood and other work with bees.
For the agricultural and home econom-
los work there is appropriated for 1921
S42.s12.22 and for 1922 $4s,s72.55.

with having erected a spot market
last year, their alleged plan being ito
create a scarcity Of available coal and
cause a high and excessive price"
The operators are charged with
obtaining priority coal shipment or
ders from the Interstate Commerce
Commission, which diverted twenty
million tons of coal from the normal
market places, mainly by shipments
OF West Virginia, Tennessee and Ken
lucky coal to New England and the
northwest. This diversion, in part, IS
alleged to have affected contract de-
liveries, caused immediate purchases
at higher prices, and drove consum-
ers into distant markets and so dis
turbed conditions that local shortages
were created and industries forced
to suspend work.
In respect to the 1920 coal situation
the indictment charges that there was
no shortage of available coal in the
United States during that time"
Various other acts are charged by
the long indictment as a part Of the
conspiracy, including allegations of
fixed territorial limits for an operators
sales, the promotion OF strikes, the
private agreements of operators to
maintain uniform sales contracts, the
breaking Of contract deliveries, the re-
fusaI to sell direct to consumers and
also to retailers who were not mem
bers Of the retailers association, and
the initiation of prices, especially by
sfpretended sale and distribution"
through sales agencies separate only
in name from the operating and pro-
duction companies"
The indictments were returned last
February 25, after an almost continu-
Gus investigation by the government |
for IS months.
