THE MORNING OREGONIAN, " SATURDAY, JULY 10. 1019. LC10I. LISTLESS ON EVE OF CELEBRATION Peace Demonstration Fails to Rouse Enthusiasm. WAR EFFECTS STILL FELT Hard Conditions Brought About by Conflict Still Present and Exert Restraining Effect. Pub- BY JAMES M. TUOHI. fCopyri?ht l'y the New York World. Iished by arrangement.) LONDON, July IS. (Special Wire less.) Listlessness, tempered by con demnation of the whole affair as in volving a waste of money and the di version of effort urgently needed in useful purposes, sums up the general popular attitude toward the peace cele bration here tomorrow. The first essential to a genuine peace demonstration is the consciousness that the blessiiiKs ot peace have been re stored. There is no such consciousness, nor could there be, seeing that the only difference London notes is the stoppage of warlike operations. All the other features of war high prices, shortage of necessaries of life, restrictions of transport, profiteering on every side now actually are more acutely felt than evef. The threatening cloud of labor unrest was never more ominous than at this moment, with the question of a railway strike, fol lowed, possibly, by a general strike, actually hanging in the balance. Be sides, peace, such as it is, is no longer a novelty; it has grown stale in the making. Half-Hearted Spirit Noted. Vast crowds will assemble, as they always do in a great city on a general holiday, but there is none of the antici patory excitement which has preceded other great processional shows. Lon don spontaneously expressed its thanks giving for this piebald peace on armi stice night and in its reception to the returning guards. Since then, in com mon with the rest of the country, it has only been learning how little dif ference there is between peace and war. The decorations reveal the half hearted spirit in which London is enter in" upon these celebrations, for al though the amount spent on the official decorations is three or four times as much as for former state parades, the householders have co-operated so poorly that the general effect is patchy without any apparent scheme. Nor does the greater part of the route of the procession lend itself to deco rative treatment, for it passes through some of the most unlovely thorough fares of London's inner suburbs. This is one of the most commendable fea tures of the whole show, for it is a recognition that the denizens of these mean streets made the greatest sacri fices during the war, and consequently feel its evils most keenly. Window Seat Price Mump. A significant slump has taken place in the prices asked for window seats on the route and the outrageous de mands originally made of from $150 to --5t) per window have dwindled down to $5 or 10, and such seats will be easily obtainable for less tomorrow probably. The military and naval pa rade necessarily must be stirring and brilliant, but the sentiment with which it wiil be viewed must be chequered by many thoughts inimical to real joy. A cenotaph of majestic and dignified design has been erected in Whitehall for tomorrow's celebration. Thisempty tomb comniemof ates, as its simple in scription, written in outstanding let ters of gold, declares "The (Glorious Dead." Watchful sentries with arms reversed will mount guard at its four corners. The bands in the parade will cease playing as they arrive at the cenotaph, and the victorious marchers will break into two broad streams of men, walking six abreast on the monu ment's either side, and salute "the plorious dead." The climax of enthusiasm was reached today by a memorable re ception given to tleneral Pershing and his staff. I'. S. Influence Recognized. The recognition of America's de cisive influence on the war, of her heroism, her soldiers and the ability of her commanders throughout the speeches at this superb city ceremonial was complete and unqualif ied.

As a means of preventing the epread of smallpox in Oregon, the state board of health has just issued an order re quiring that ail persons presenting evi dences of any.skin disease which might be suspected of being smallpox must submit to an examination by the city health authorities before being allowed to purchase transportation on any of the railroads out of Portland. An nouncement of the new order was made yesterday by David N. Roberg. state health officer. This action has been taken as a re sult of a smallpox case which was un covered by County Physician Shoe maker of Douglas county. It was found that a person suffering from the disease had eluded the health author! ties In Portland and had boarded the train for California. At Roseburg Dr. Shoemaker discovered the person, re. moved him from the train, quarantined the train crew and fumigated the car, In order to avoid a repetition of such an incident, which exposed the travel ing public to the disease, the board of health has issued the order to J. P. O'Brien, head of the Oregon division of the United States railroad adminlstra tion. "At the present time, Portland Is the distributing center for smallpox for this state, and therefore this order should be immediately set into effect for the trains mentioned," said Dr. Ro berg, in explaining the new order. "Later It may be necessary to have similar orders Issued throughout all the towns In the state." The board of health also requires that all railroad employes who come In contact with persons Infected with smallpox must submit to vaccination. It Is said that a number of cases of the disease have already developed among railroad employes. The railroad administration has an nounced its willingness to co-operate with the board of health.

We stopped about 40 miles up the Rogue river at Prospect and had a splendid dinner with Jim Greaves at a hostelry made famous years ago by nis father.

American officials attempting to solve the food question are con fronted with a sugar shortage in France that Is said to call either for Americans to sacrifice some of their sweet drinks, or for the French to give up their sweet pastries. The American officials, it is under stood, are decidedly in favor of allow ing Americans to continue the use of sugar for their sweet drinks. Th-e French authorities. however, are anxious to obtain sugar irom the United States, but exportation from the American market now is prohibited to protect American consumers. NEW YORK. July IS. A freight em bargo on coastwise traffic was an nounced today by the coastwise steam ship companies operating under federal control, as a result of the strike of seamen and engineers along the Atlan tic and gulf coasts. The order for the embargo was for warded to shipping points by the United States railroad administration. The marine strikers' demands were discussed for three hours this afternoon at a conference between committees representing the International Seamen's union and American Steamship asso ciation, after which the owners' com mittee informed the labor leaders the terms would be taken under advisement and presented to the full membership of the steamship association tomorrow. Union leaders declare the attitude of both aides was "extremely friendly" and that a settlement "seems near at hand." The embargo has been foreshadowed for several days as a consequence of the rapid piling up or great quantities of freight, much of it perishable, at At lantic and Gulf ports through the tying up of ships by the strikers. G. H. Brown, secretary of the seamen's union claimed today that the entire shipping of the country would be virtually tied up within two week if the struggle continued. The disorganization of the merchant service through sailors deserting the coast for the harvest fields also was predicted by union leaders. They as serted that seamen were leaving this port in droves for the farms, where harvest hands were being paid $5 and $6 a day with board and lodging. The renewal of disturbances today, with an attack on a Bowery employ- ment office by strikers, who alleged the office was recruiting strikebreakers, stirred the police to greater vigilance along the waterfront.
