THE MOIEXING OITEGONIAN, FRIDAY, APRILi 2, 1920 n MM we STRIKE IN NEW YORK Strong Police Detachments ' Guard Hudson Ferries. FIGURE MAY BE 15,000 trie Railroad Officials Give Inti mation That Strikebreakers .. Will Be Employed. NEW YORK, April 1. Obeying a. strike call Involving- between 8000 and 15,000 marine workers, crews op erating railroad ferryboats at 9 o'clock began tying up their craft, after the, rush of homeward-bound c-omniuters had ended. Enginemen and deck forces of railroad-owned t'jcs and lighters were called out this afternoon. Strong detachments of police are guarding ferry bouses on both sides of the Hudson. Officials of the railroad companies affected announced they would make no attempt to operate ferries during the night, but an Intimation that strikebreakers might be employed was given at the office of the Krie rail road by J. J. Mantell.- chairman of the New Tork sub-committee of the General Managers' association. He said the railroads would "do all in their power to operate the boats and serve the public." The strike also involves four or ganizations affiliated with unions in cluded in the marine workers' asso ciation, and comes at a time when everal thousand' coastwise long shoremen have stopped work. Unions taking part in the strike re the National Association of Mas tors, Mates and Pilots, the Marine JOngineers" Benefit association and the harbor boatmen. Tho men are striking, according to officers of the almalgamated union, to "enforce a continued observance cf the eight-hour day." CHICAGO STRIKE IS BREAKING Two Groups of City Employes Agree to Arbitration. CHICAGO, April 1. A break in the city hall strike situation came late today when two groups of employes igreed to submit their wage differ ences to arbitration. Three hundred ind fifty garbage handlers went back :o work today and 74 food inspectors n the health department decided to return tomorrow. Settlement of the strike of 10D0 clerks and stenographers was brought nearer also, union officers promising Mayor Thompson they would urge the strikers to go back and arbitrate. Threats of prosecution for conspir acy faced city firemen as a result of wholesale resignations as a "strike" lor higher pay. Seven hundred firemen signed res ignations yesterday, union officials .-say. John Cullerton, custodian of fire department property, notified union officials today that their action will be a conspiracy. The fire marshal, Cullerton said, had authority to draft any citizen for fire service and would do so to fill the ranks. The strike which has tied up the stockyards for four days and threat ened to close all packing plants here was settled today, the men agreeing to return to work and arbitrate their wage differences. Work will be re sumed at the yards tomorrow. More than 7000 packing-house em ployes were thrown out of work when feeders and stock handlers at the yards quit. The agreement was reached after '.hree federal mediators of the de partment of labor had conferred with the men. Following the announcement that the men would return to work, the mbargo on livestock was lifted. As oon as possible, railroads running nto Chicago will turn back livestock shipments which have been diverted oward other packing-house centers .luring the strike.

Travelers became the guests of these chiefs and Malfante reported their protection superior to that in states like Tlemcen and Tunis. One of the towns was Taojentit. now a de cayed village, whose people still re call the Jewish epoch. Tamentit, Mal fante wrote, sheltered both Jews and Mohammedans, who lived in harmony. The native negroes valued copper highly, Malfante stated, and used it for money, adding: "The people here do not want to transact any business if they do not make a. commission of 100 per cent." And their business was on a big scale at that. Half a million head of cattle, to mention but one item, were brought to market in the caravan season. Pushing on to Timbuktu, Malfante's host was the brother of a captain of desert industry, a man of great wealth, and possessed of trade information concerning all of North Africa. From him Malfante ,lea.rned of such flourish ing places as Teghazza, famous for its salt mines and unique for its archi tecture. The houses were made of rock salt. Malfante noted that it never rained there, or the houses would have melted away. A census of Timbuktu and Gao, a rival city, was made, Malfante stated, as the result of a wager regarding which was larger. To the south of the Mohammedan kingdoms were many states inhabited solely by savages. One of these tribes worshipped a mirror, believing that in the reflection of their faces they saw a deity. TRADE LEADERS TO MEET OAIXJART, CANADA, TO HOLD AXXVATi CONGRESS. Dominion, Great Britain and United States to Send Rcp- resentative Men. CALGARY, Alberta, Canada.- A gathering of the industrial and finan cial men, representative of leading interests In Canada, Great Britain and the United States, will take place in western Canada this year, when the second annual Alberta-British Co lumbia industrial congness is held from June 2 to 10. The congress, which was originated last year by Mayor M. A. Brown of Medicine Hat, along with a number of progressive citizens of the other cities of Alberta, takes the form of an informative tour of the centers of Alberta and British Columbia. Invitations are being sent In person to many of the leading busi ness men of this continent and Great Britain and the management are con fident that the gathering will surpass that of last year in every respect. The success of the 1919 congress has aroused the enthusiasm of the busi ness men of the west and all the cities are co-operating in their plans for showing the delegates the potentiali ties of the resources of western Canada. At the various . sessions of the congress they will be addressed by men who are recognized authorities on the two provinces. The industriaWcongress is hailed this year as marking an epoch in the development of western Canada, chief ly In view of the fact of the splendid co-operation of the- two. provinces. Each has recognized the supreme necessity of industrial expansion and the development of the latent re sources and has reached the realiza tion that they can do more by com bined effort than singly..'. . In Alberta the 1919 congress brought about the permanent establishment of the Alberta Industrial Development association, with offices in Calgary. Brigadier - General H. F. McDonald. C. M. Q., D. S. O:. was appointed general manager at the first of the present year, and. it is -from- this of fice the 1920 congress is being man aged. The offices of -the association are the headquarters for an active campaign for the expansion of indus try in Alberta and the introduction of new lines which can make use of the tremendous natural resources to hand. ;ocu?nont Discovered Showing Early Jewish Traders Did Thriv ing Business in Nigeria. WASHINGTON. The National Ge ographic society makes the first an nouncement in this country of a re mwrkable documentaray discovery made by Charles de la Ronciere, librarian of the National Library of x Ta nee. Hitherto Africa has figured not at all in medieval history. It still was a dark continent when Stanley and Livingstone penetrated it less than 100 years ago. Yet, Jews of the 15th century had trading poets In North west Africa and carried on a vast commerce with the natives, from the Sahara to the Atlantic and from Al geria to the Niger. Antonia Malfante, a Genoese citizen. traversed this region and wrote de scriptive letters in 1447, from Timbuk tu and Touat. These letters, long nogiecteo, nave now come to light. All the places visited by Malfante were so widely known to the Jewa of his time that they were listed in a Catalan atlas prepared 75 years ear Iicr for Charles V, according to M. Jtonciere. But shortly after Mai fame's visit, the Jews were driven out of Spain and since they were the only ones in Europe who knew the Nigeria country, and apparently had permitted no Christian to enter there except Malfante, the Jewish know! edge was lost to Europe. It was not until Pr. Gerhard Rohlfs began his explorations in Algeria and Morocco in 1860 that the rest of the world again formed a contact with the ex tensive regions of Malfante's travels. Landing at a point west of Algiers, Malfante worked his way south to Touat, which Rohlfs later believed himself to have been the first Euro- pen to visit. Yet Malfante had dated his first letter from there 400 years earlier. Touat was an oasis, containing from 3a0 to 200 villages, which, together. formed a vast commercial territory exchanging powdered gold of Tim buktu nnd alt of Teghafcza for the Cuticura Soap The Safety Razor- Shaving Soap Cutc-SoaTJ8hT9 witboBtmrwr.

(Continued From Tirgt Page.) At the Theaters. Hippodrome, A SLENDER girl with a lovely so prano voice is one of the delights on the new bill .at the Hippodrome. She is a Miss Gremmer and appears with her partner, Mr. Delbridge, who also has an excellent voice. Miss Gremmer sings easily, taking re markably high notes with apparently no effort and always sustaining her tones beautifully. She sings simple, sweet melodies and Mr. Delbridge adds stories and a solo or two in his delightful baritone. As a final offer ing the two have an operatic duet which is charmingly achieved and mu- sicianly in a marked way. The three Dixie kids have a joyful assortment of songs, steps and music. Particularly of interest Is the saxo phoning and trombone playing. Two of the Dlxlee are cunning maids. smartly dressed and the other Dixie Is a clever comedian who provides great fun. Fred J. Ardath is featured in a comedy called "The Melody Shop" which has five people In the cast. It is a farce comedy which tells of the matrimonial aspirations of a clerk in a song shop. He learns a formula of address to his prospective father- in-law and it all goes wrong. A mo ment of fun is added when the clerk. his employer and the - prospective father-in-law engage in painting a counter. They smear paint on every thing and even on themselves -so liberally that the audience finds much to laugh at. Powell and worth make up as black lace comedians - and are billed as "snowballs at" midnight." Snowballs are cold, however, and these funsters are warm in comedy and original methods. Their jokes 'and stepping around provide a bright spot of good enter tainment. The two Eugene brothers are serio comic gymnasts, who develop a riot of an act before they close.. They feature unusual achievements in ath letic prowess and set it to clever comedy. - .. Opening the bill 'is an act In which Madame Blsse presents a group of well-trained little dogs, smart and cunning. They are garbed as people and go through a series of clever tricks. - The photoplay ia "The Round Up,' featuring the adorable baby Marie Osborne and- her funny pickaninny friend actor In an amusing story. 80 TRAPPED IN ARCTIC Men, Women and Children on Ship Reported Perishing.

"who think the treaty as it came from Versailles satisfactory. Whatever mental qualms the advocates of this view had at the beginning, their ar guments for the ratification of the treaty and the league included in it have led them into an attitude of defending it as ideal." "With reference to the position taken by the Borah-Johnson irreconcllablea, the editorial continues: "Isolationists" Are Defined. "The 'isolationists" attitude basi cally is that America is a continent self-sufficient unto itself. To main tain our institutions, our principles. our higher standards of living, we should surround ourselves with a. Chi nese wall. No entangling alliances, no foreign obligations, no involving in ternational co-operation. Escaping the responsibilities, we are to miss the fellowship." Continuing in this vein, the Herald goes interestingly into the contest in the republican party, in which Mr. Hoover has entered, saying: '"The adherents of each of these views believe they have the support of the country. Tet no one has a mandate from the American people. Wilson was re-elected before this country entered the war. Congress was chosen two years ago on other issues. "No machinery exists for a national referendum next fall although the progressive party in 1912 advocated the adoption of the Initiative and referendum. Many will be the issues affecting the choice of the voter. After election little more may be known regarding the Judgment of the voter on this issue than before. Treaty May Be "Herring." "The treaty may become a red herring serving to divert attention from vital issues of reconstruction and human betterment. "In this situation Herbert Hoover has announced his willingness to per mit his name to be used in the coming California presidential prima ries. Hoover stands for the treaty and the league with reservations, such reservations safeguarding American interests as can command sufficient votes in the senate to bring about ratification. His principal opponent for the republican indorsement in California is Senator Johnson, who believes in the rejection of the treaty and the league an "isolationist." "Both Hoover and Johnson classify themselves as progressives. This agreement stresses the difference over the treaty. Here, then, is a sharp is sue over the treaty and. as a conse quence, over the attitude the Ameri can people should take in world af fairs in the future. Democratic "Wreck" Foreseen. "Thus far the perfectionist's atti tude is unrepresented in the Cali fornia primary controversy. For the moment, at least the 'perfectionist' attitude seems to be accomplishing nothing but wreck, beyond possibility of salvage of the democratic party. People of Independent viewpoint seem to be turning their attention and activities to the controversy rag ing within the republican party." The editorial appears under the head. "Peace Treaty and the - Cali fornia Primary" and opens with these observations: "We are still at war with Germany and Austria, and our relations with our allies are In a muddle. We offer advice but carry none of the burden. Other peoples look upon us as a house divided against itself, quite un able to act. Europe disintegrates and America's moral readership evapo rates. Making the world safe for democ racy seems now to many to have been a phantom light which led mul titudes into quagmires of anarchy and oral degradation. Cynicism sneers exultantly: hope flickers despondently. Resumption of normal conditions is delayed. The thoughtful among us fear the disso lution of our own body politic The peace treaty is nowhere." "It is up to the senate." "It is up to the house." "The patriot who knows life looks with horror upon a situation that may sap the confidence of mil lions in our institutions." - World's Comment Vague. The New 'Tork World, democratic, and inventor of the Hoover boom. gives the leading editorial over to the Hoover candidacy today, but leaves the reader to guess whether that paper is so deeply interested in Mr. Hoover as a republican candidate as it was in him as an unbranded pa triot. The World discourses him as the right sort of man for the repub lican party to nominate without say ing what the World's attitude would be toward him in event he were to head the repudican ticket. . The New Tork TVlbune, which has been an ardent supporter of General Wood from the first, says: "Whether Mr. Hoover is to be nomi nated or not depends on the volun tary action of the republican rank and file. His candidacy, if ever one was, is based on popular self-determination. He is not a political regu lar and is not sympathetic to ma chines. In this respect he parallels General Wood, as in- other specific matters. "The .decision Between the two is likely to im according as there is judgment of personal competence General Wood has the advantage of having been longer at work but Hoover seems to have the advantage of the stronger 'ground swell' and more fervid supporters. The republi can party is fortunate in having of fered to it candidates so exceptional, and there seems no good reason why the supporters of either should wran gle themselves into undue heat. Democratic Support Recalled. "But one serious objection is raised to Mr Hoover's candidacy, namely, that he supported President Wilson for re-election. This action he prob ably now regrets as much as anyone and scarcely is it to be charged against him. Wise is the party that sometimes forgets and allows bygones to be bygones. ' .

Dixie of Africa May Be Joined to Italian Somali land as Re sult of Negotiations. WASHINGTON. "Jubaland Is not a musical comedy name for Dixie, but a portion of British East Africa which may be joined to Italian Somaliland as the outcome of amicable negotia tions between Great Britain and Italy," says a bulletin issued by the National Geographic society. "Few other undeveloped regions on that vast continent hold such agri cultural oppotunities for individuals or companies which can handle native labor as do the vast uncultivated plains on which rubber, cotton and tobacco can be grown. "Jubaland now is the northernmost part of British East Africa lying west of the Juba river. Pew white men have penetrated the fastnesses of this country which touches Abyssinia on the north, Uganda on the west and Italian Somaliland on the east. Its southern portion fringes the equator. With the exception of the Juba there are no navigable streams of note lead ing inland. "The Juba river, about the length of the Colorado, can be used for com mercial navigation about 400 miles from its mouth. In its valley, where irrigation is practiced on a naturally fertile soli, already there are con tinuous fields of maize, millet, plan tain, semsem, tobacco and cotton. Near the lower portion of the river densely populated areas alternate with forests. "Within Jubaland's territory, only little less in area than Italy, per haps 250,000 members of the Somali and Galla tribes live. The Gallas are of a high physical quality. They are dark brown in color, are generally tall and well-formed, and their deep sunk, lively eyes give their faces a keen, intelligent look. They are war like nomads and roam with their herds of camels, ponies, cows and fat-tailed sheep over the grassy up lands of their country. Within recent years the Somali, who live farther to the north, have gradually pushed Into the Galla country and are sending its people southward and westward. The Gallas are hospitable, brave in bat tle and keen in trading. Theor women enjoy an exceptional amount of freedom as compared with Llli&l gltCII (.lie WUIIJCI1 J A. HIUBL AlliCttU tribes. They may even reject an un desirable suitor. Both men and wom en usually wear a mantle of coarse cotton, and make up for the lack In the number of their garments by adorning themselves with ornaments of brass and iron. The men wear necklaces of the brighter metal, leav ing the fashion of armlets and ank lets of more inconspicuous substances to women.-. This land of promise is not an un pleasant place to live. The lowlands are hot. but a short distance back from the shores of the Indian ocean the land begins to rise gradually un til it reaches an elevation of between 4500 and 6000 feet, when it stretches out into a rolling plateau, with valu able forest areas. In this section the climate is temperate, with heavy rains during spring and fall months. The crops are approximately the same as those found in America. Kismayu is the capital of Jubaland. It is a town of about 3000 inhabitants a few miles from the mouth of the Juba and carries on a brisk trade with the interior. FLOOD PROBLEM OUTLINED League Is Told of Difficulties Along Colorado River. LOS ANGELES, April 1. The Colo rado is an interstate and International river, and as such has its special problems, C. E. Grumsky, Panama canal commissioner of San Francisco, told the .delegates to the annual con vention of the League of the South west today in an address on "flood problems of the Colorado." The con vention opened a four-day session with the development of the Colorado river irrigable lands as its chief object. It is evident, declared- Mr. Grum sky, "that some arrangement should be entered into between the United States and Mexico under which ade quate provision could be made for flood control works and that any such arrangements should provide for an equitable distribution of cost."
