It w to rect this condition that Cov, Neville included in his call for the special ntiVe session, a recommendation the legi et “to stamp out vestig of sedition in Ne- ealal zone, The result was that a sedition law, stic in its nature, and e oace, was written into the statute Nebraska, providing that per- sons shall be deemed guilty of this me if they “with intent to obstruct, y, discourage, hamper, or nterfere with the efficient sution of the war shall speak, | write, print, publish, or circulate any | word or statement or do any act en- couraging disloyalty to the United TsI jina, descendant of a Cherokee chief, | sonably calculated to bring the Unit- ee Motealfe, form} sod the attention of | ya) States) of America into disrepute. ‘There are many other provisions of the law covering all forms of disloy- alty to thé nation, among which is ono that provides that persons con- victed ot violating the act shall, not act as teacher, lecturer, nifnister, preacher, priest or instructor in any capacity during the period of the war. Neither does the law permit such per- sons to act in, these capacities it cases of sedition are pending against them, except upon permission of the courts. \ Before the special “war” session had come to a close the legislators wiped off the statute books the law which enabled school patrons to com- pel boards of education to provide for che teaching of German and other for- eign languages; enacted a law giving Nebraskans in the naval and military services the right to vote vy mail at general . elections; passed a. law against the crime of sabotage; legal- ized the state’s home guards to pre- serve order during the absence of the national guard, and voted to submic to the voters next fall the question of adopting an amendment to the consti- 4ution designed to prevent aliens from exercising the right of suffrage. Despite the fact that thte govern- or did not include in his call for the session, any reference to the propo- on of ratifying the national prohi- bition amendment, advocates of that sure vainly sought to obtain. its tion. The governor explained | he omitted it from his call because he felt it would precipitate a lengthy fight at a time when legislators should fective at | conclude their “war” work and return to their various professions and. busi: nesses. The amendment passed. the house but the senate halted action un- til the regular session in January. QUOTA OF DRESSINGS.
