POLK COUNTY
VETERANS PLAN
VO|TURE LOCALE

Dallas, July 20.-A voiture
Locale for Polk county Of the La
societe Des 40 Hommes ct Che
vaux is to be shortly organized In
Dallas. to be more explicit the
date OF the installation and or
ganization being set for Saturday
evening, August IL.
This sunshine order of the Am
erican Legion maintains a locale
in Marion county and a number
Of the Polk county legion mem
bers have affiliated themselves
with the organization In that
city. To secure q county charter
II Is necessary to obtain Is sig
natures to the application to
headquarters. This has already
been done and action toward or
ganization has already been start
ed. The organization Is more com
monty known as The Forty Men
ate Horses and has become quite
strong and popular all over the
state.
On the evening of organization
In Dallas it is planned to have the
"wrecking crew" from Salem here
In order to put ON the initiatory
work properly. In addition to the
crew many of the Marion county
members are planning to attend
In order to see that their Polk
county "buddies" are started off
in the right direction.
There are many members OF the
legion organization In this county
and there is seemingly no reason
why the sunshine order" should
not have an enrolment of many
members.

Hot Weather Damages
Nebraska Corn Crop

Washington, Sept 6.-Excessively
dry, hot weather in nearly all sec

has made considerable progress and
farm work has advanced satisfac-
torily.
Corn is maturing rapidly and be-
ing husked in the southern states,
but this crop has deteriorated in the
central and eastern states, with the
setback severe in Missouri, Kansas
and Nebraska. due to heat aud lack
of moisture. Thrashing OF small
grains has been virtually completed

market conditions have slowed up the

Spring wheat yields in the Pacific

(Washinst6n Correspondent, The Omaha


Washington, Sept. 6.-Reports per-
sist in Washington today that Bert
M. Jewell OF the shipments union has
been in the east for the last few days
conierring with rail executives with
the view of strike settlement and
that he would return to Chicago,
where he will call meeting OF the
executive and policy committee of the
union for the purpose OF ending the
strike.
This corroborates the confident
statement made yesterday by Attor-
ney General Daugherty that the strike
would be ended within a week, even
il Mr.. Jewell has not adopted this
program.
Strike Seems Lost.
1t is apparent TO the forces OF Or
ganzed labor that the shopmen's
strike is lost. Only combined ac-
ton on the part OF labor could win it
now. in view Of the fact that the
brotherhoods have refused to join,
the coal strikes have been settled and
in view, also, of the utter impossl-
bility OF calling general strike.
According to the information OBJ
tained here, the labor leaders pro.
pose at their Washington meeting
OF the executive council OF the Ameri-
can Federation, next Saturday, to
consider recommending a protest
sympathetic strike oil "a hours
throughout the country The fedora.
ton can recommend only and not
order. A general strike would re.
qplre so days to engineer, as all OF
the organization memberships would
have to vote on il,
Any yielding on the par, OF the
shopmen would be explained on the
ground that the strikers yielded 10
