Farmer Tells in
Keegan Trial Of
Being Tortured
Hans Jurgens Says Robbers
Held Lighted Matches to
His Feet to Force Ex-
posure Of Bonds.

Extreme heat and stufiness OF the
small, crowded court room yester-
day afternoon caused District Judge
Leslie to adjourn the trial of Frank
keegan at AIS, instead of at the
usual closing hour of 5.
Hans Jurgens was robbed at his
bachelor home on his farm, three
miles northwest of Florence, the
night of December 10, 1920, by three
men.
In March Keegan was arrested on
charge of aiding and abetting the
robbery. He was bound over from
county court by Judge Crawford.
Jurgens told yesterday how he
opened his door in answer to a
knock and was confronted by three
men, who tied him UP and tortured
him, in an effort to make him tell
where his Liberty bonds were con-
cealed.
One of the men, he said, held
lighted matches against his bare
feet, but he told them his bonds
were in Florence bank.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire
Washington, June l3.-Easterr
bankers have agreed to supply hall
of the $SO,OOO,0OO pool which is be-
ing organized by the treasury ane
federal reserve to furnish additiona
credit facilities for the live stock
industry. :,
This assurance has been given, II
was stated today, following the con,
ference of last week in which J. +
Morgan represented eastern bankers
The other $25,0O0,000 must be
raised by western bankers. Posi-,
bility of raising this amount will
come up for consideration at the
conference of western bankers to be
held in Chicago Wednesday. A COM
mittee representing the eastern bank
ers will attend the meeting.
Chicago Banks in Charge.
While the easern bankers will make
a substantial contribution to the pool
the Chicago banks will be asked to
take charge of the details of the
scheme
The program is to make six
mouths live stock loans rather than
for two-year period as has been
urged. The six months paper Will
be subject to revW Nv upon maturity
and renewal if the loan is still sound
By limiting the loans to SIX month
ner;ods the naper will be eligible for
rediscount at federal reserve banks
The loans will bear interest at cur
rent rates. ~,.
1t is intended that the Chicago
banks shall handle the loans through
banks in the cattle-growing sections
or through cattle loan companies
In this way it will be possible to
use existing credit machinery, which
will faeiltate matters.
Headed for FAMINE.
Handling of the matter through
private banking channels is regarded
as desirable because Of the urgency
of the situation. The purpose is to
facilitate the annual movement OF
cattle feeders from the southwest to
Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and
other northwestern states. Among
those who will attend the Chicago
conference is Senator Stanheld OF
Oregon. who also participated in
the meeting of last week in Wash
ington.
II believe that private credits to
the amount of $50,0O0,O0O would aid
materially in the crisis now present
out in our country" said Senator
Stanfeld in discussing the live
stock situation today. Naturally
l desire to have the financial prob
lem handled through private hands
than through governmental aid. The
| Chicago conference ought to estab-
lish definitely whether there is any
need for federal legislation. Private
capital or federal credits must work
to save a situation that is headed
straight for meat famine"

Packers Earnings
Excessive, Charges
Nebraska Senator

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Washington, June l3-The big
meat packers were accused of ex-
cessive earnings by Senator Norris
of Nebraska, chairman of the senate
committee on agriculture, today in
urging the passage Of the bill for
the supervision of the industry.
THE packers have tried to make
the American people believe that
they have made only 2 per cent"
said Senator Norris. THAT is the
impression given from their adver-
tisements, although close analysis
would disclose that they mean that
was the profit OF the turnover.
"The packers have issued large
stock dividends. Armour & Co.
alone has issued $l00,0O0,0O0 in cap
ital stock out of earnings. This
money was contributed by the con-
sumers of meats and is now included
in the amount which is used as the
basis upon which dividends must be
paid.

which will give us real publicity"

ARE The JAPANESE
REALLY EFFICIENT?
Not If You Judge Them BY
Their Telephones, Says
Julian Street

Although the Western World has be,
gun to take for granted that the Jap
anese have reached an enviable posi-
ton in the world because of an alleged
efficiency in all matters, a close inspee.
j ton of actual facts shows UP the Jap
rs almost childish. Writing for Nc.
Clure's Magazine in an article entitled,
Are the Japanese Efhcient?" Julian
Street, noted traveller and writer, gives
many instances of stupid Japanese in
efficiency, particularly as to tele.
graphs, telephones and transportation.
Tokyo, with a transportation prob
\ lem which ought easily to be solved,
has utterly inadequate street car serv-
tce," says Mr.. Street. 1.-THE rush hour
there is only saved from being as ter
rible as the rush hour in New York by
the lack of subterranean features.
stBut it is in all matters having to
DO with communications that Japanese
ineficiency is most strikingly brought
to the notice of strangers. The postal
service is poor, the cable service is ex-
pensive and absurdly slow (when i
was in Japan it took about ten days
to cable to America and get an answer
back, and the telephone service is un-
believably awful. All these, like the
railroads, are owned and operated by
the Government
at is like opera bouffe. Though the
demand for new telephones far exceeds
the supply, the government makes no
appreciable effort to remedy the situa-
ton. Every year an absurdly small
number of lines is added to the exist
ing system These are assigned by lot
among those who have applied for
them. Thus, if man be lucky in the
draw, he may get telephone within
two or three years. But l know one
gentleman in Tokyo who was not lucky
in the draw At the ripe age Of sixty
seven he applied to the government
for an addition Office telephone. The
instrument was installed shortly after
hs had celebrated his eightieth birth
day. Long may he live to use it!
"If one be in a hurry to have a
telephone put in, one does not apply
TO the authorities, but attacks the prob
lem in a manner more direct-either
through telephone broker or through
advertising Thus one can get in con-
tact with a person wishing to sell an
Installation and a number. The mum.
Der must, however, be in the exchange
serving the district in which the tele-
phone is to be placed.
Though this is very expensive
method, it is the one usually employed
In Tokyo and other large cities. A tele-
phone for the business district of the
capital may cost as much as twelve
hundred dollars, but in residence dis
trict it will be considerably cheaper
I've hundred dollars or less.
"A curious detail of this business is
that low numbers bring the highest
price in the open market. This, l was
informed, is because green operators
IN process of being broken in, sit al
that end of the central switchboard al
which the high numbers invariably oc
cur, thus guaranteeing the owners Of
high numbers grade of service cal
culated to drive them to the mad
house"
