GERMAN CITY SCENE
OF GENERAL STRIKE
BERLIN, Feb. 6. The whole city of
Dusseldorf has "walked out." Offic
ials, clerks and other employes in the
service of railways, posts, telegraph
telephone and service lines; bankers,
lawyers, physicians, school teachers
and other persons engaged in profes
sions have quit work. The strike is in
keeping with the threat to the execu
tive council of the communistic gov
ernment to call a general strike of all
bourgeois classes if their demands
were not granted. This unique protest
is the first of its kind to be applied
on a big scale as a retaliation against
Spartacan terrorism.
SEATTLE IS ENDED
SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 10. At 1
o'clock this afternoon the general
strike committee voted to terminate
the sympathy strike at noon tomorrow,
and called upon those unions which
already have returned and are at
work to lay down their tools until that
time In order to demonstrate the sol
idarity of labor. Few are answering
the appeal, which is counted to be the
last rus to save some remnant of
seeming victory for the leaders.
The end of the sympathy strike does
not affect the earlier individual
strike of the 25,000 shlpworkers, who
struck in protest against the Macy
award. These will remain out until
some definite adjustment is reached.
it is announced. As for the sympathy
strike, Mayor Hanson maintains that
it never was genuine, so far as its com
manding spirits were concerned, and
that they seized upon it as the pre
text for rebellion and the disruption of
government and Industry.

FACTORY FOR
SOUTH BEND
SOUTH BEND, WASH., Feb. 10.

Development Congress, he'd here Fri
day night, the proposition of securing
a fruit juice factory for the county
was heartily indorsed. The North
west Fruit Products company of Olym
pla and Salem, has been looking over
the county with a view to establishing
a factory at some point here and de
sired an expression of the people as
to what encouragement the project
would get The company wants at
least S00 acres of blackberries and
loganberries guaranteed and will pay
6 cents a pound for evergreen black
berries and 4 1-2 cents for loganber
ries on a tive-year contract. The South

SAILING DATE
OF PRESIDENT
MAY BE CHANGED
PARIS, France, Feb. 8.
The league of nations commission
held a special meeting at 10:30
o'clock this morning in an effort to
speed work on the draft of the con
stitution. It was officially announced that
substantial agreement was reached on
the chief points discussed at Friday
night's meeting, but that the commis
sion has decided to refer decisions it
has made to the sub-committees for
classification.
Owing to the amount of work in con
nection with the league that is yet to
completed, the President probably
will defer his sailing for home sched
uled for next Friday to February 16
or 17.
The committee working on interna
tionalization of waterways will get
down to business next week. One of
its first subjects will be the question
of whether the Rhine is to be an open
waterway or placed under commission
similar to that which will control the
Danube.
SENATE VOTE
DEFEATS BILL
FOR SUFFRAGE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10 The sen
ate for the second time during the
present congress declined this after
noon to submit the proposed suffrage
amendment to the federal constitution
to the states for ratification.
The vote was: Yeas, 55; nays, 29.
The vote on October 1, 1918, was 53
to 31, with 12 voting present.
Woman suffrage leaders gave notice
immediately after the conclusion of
the roll call that they would demand
reconsideration of the resoution by
the senate before the present session
ends.
The vote proved a bitter disappoint
ment to suffragists who had counted
on President Wilson and other Demo
cratic leaders to swing the southern
Democrats Into line.
JAPAN WILL AID
RUSSIA SETTLE
RED QUESTION
VLADVISTOK, Feb. 10. Reports
from Omsk state that the Russian gov
ernment there has accepted an offer
from Japan of men, money and arms
to settle the Bolshevik difficulty.
This step, it is said, is due to re
ports that the allies are to withdraw
their forces from Siberia and also to
a fear that the conference at Princes
Islands will result in recognition of
the Bolsheviki.
In return for the aid she is to give,
the reports state, Japan will secure an

BILL TO CURTAIL
POIR OF PUBUG
COMMISSION KILLED
SALEM. Feb. 7 Virtually all of the
afternoon session of the senate yes
terday v.as consumed with debate on
Senator Huston's tamous bill curtail-
ins the lowers of the public service
connni.j'Mon. A minority report troin
the committee on revision of laws
recommending that the bill be killed
won and it was indefinitely postponed
Eddy, Banks and Moser shouldered
the argument against the bill and
Senators Huston, Strayer and others
spoke for it.
It was intended to deprive the com
mission of authority to set aside any
utility rate fixed by Iranchlse prior to
November 7, 1912, and grew out of the
commission' order increasing street
car fares in Portland from 5 to 6 cents.
That case was prominently mention
ed in the debate.
IN BUTTE ARE IDLE
BUTTE, Mont., Feb. 10. Approxl
mately 12,000 men are idle In Butte to
night and the city Is virtually under
the control of the militia, due to the
strike of members of the Butte Metal
Miners' union (Independent) and of
the Metal Mine Workers' Industrial
union No. 800 ow the Industrial Work
ers of the World.
Miners who are said not to favor
the strike, failed to go to work this
morning, due, It was said, to fear of
violence.
It also was asserted that many of
those heretofore against the strike had
decided to join the strikers this morn
ing. The men are striking against the
recent reduction in wages of 1 a day
and for abolishment of the "rustling"
card system in vogue here.
ALLIED TROOPS
TO BE CALLED
FROM RUSSIA
PARIS, Feb. 10. .The associated
powers are expected within a few days
to proclaim formally the principle of
non-intervention in Russia, militarily
or politically, it was learned from a
reliable source today. It is possible to
state further in this connection they
will carry out their intention to with
draw as rapidly as possible the troops
now In Russian territory.
This is the outcome of the Anglo-
American representations made to
France 10 days ago. Advices from
Northern Russia indicate it will be im
possible to get boats to Archangel for
several weeks as that port is tightly
frozen in. The allies do not desire to
withdraw their troops from Murmansk
while their troops are still on the Arch
angel front as that would leave the
latter exposed to an attack from the
west.
MILL WORKERS
ATTACK POLICE
MANY WOUNDED
LAWRENCE, Mass., Feb. 10. A
pitched battle between severel hun
dred strikers and their sympathizers
and a squad of 100 policemen was
fought at the gates of the Arlington
mills today. It was the most serious
disorder since the beginning of the
textile strike a week ago. The police
used their clubs freely. Clubs and
stones were used by the strikers and
their sympathizers. Many of the lat
ter were wounded. As fast as they fell
friends gathered them up and took
them away.
The vicinity of the mills has been
the storm center of the strike. Today

E
PRICES OF WHEAT
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6. "It is
unthinkable that congress, having
placed a guarantee on the price of
wheat, should in any manner neglect
to keep faith with the farmers of the
country," Julius Barnes, president of
the food administration grain corpora
tion, told the house agricultural com
mittee Wednesday.
As further argument for maintain
ing a guarantee upon the price of
wheat, Mr. Rarnes protested "that
America shall not pluce the power to
name the value of its product in the
hands of any concentrated buying
agency (foreign) no matter how
friendly."
It was made clear that no rationing
system for this country Is contemplat
ed nor regulation of retailers.

the scourge of war," said King George
in an address today opening parlia
ment. Reviewing the situation at the close
of the war King George declared that
lu order to reap the full fruits of vic
tory and safeguard the peace ot the
world adequately, an army must be
maintained. ,
It was after this declaration he
made reference to the peace confer
ence at Paris.
