THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, APRIL 22, 1921 mm CIPHER EXPLAINED Thirteenth Century Philoso pher's Writings Solved. MICROSCOPE USED THEN sProfc!or Xewbold of Pennsylvania Relates Findings to American Philosophical Society. PHILADELPHIA, April II. A de tailed description of the method used in decoding the cipher used by Roger Bacon, the thirteenth century phlloso-rher-mork, in writing an 800.000-word manuscript, now the property of Wil frid M. Voynich of New York and London, was given here today before tiie American Philosophical society by l'rofcssor William Romaine Newbold ef the University of Pennsylvania. As a result of the revelations, scien tists have declared Bacon had re markable knowledge of modern math ematical systems and had used both the telescope and the microscope, Ir. Newbold said. Baron's Idea Explained. "Bacon conceived the idea of ex pressing every letter of a word which lie wanted to write in cipher by a cyllable and building the syllable into new word," Dr. Newbold said. "Bacon lays down the rule that suc cessive syllables must end and begin with the same letters, double letters bcinc dropped. Thus 'cat' may be spelled in the Bacon cipher as fol lows: 'go-ol-ld,' dropping the double letters, one gets the word gold. 4S4 Combinations Possible. "In reading the cipher you double very letter except the first and last and thus discover the syllables which apcll the word. But it is very seldom possible to find syllables which fulfill these conditions and yet spell a new "word' when arranged in the order of Setters of the original word like cat. I'or example, 'cat,' may also be spelled 'ar-rk-da,' and the syllables 2ay be rearranged into the word Mark' but when 'dark' is translated the word 'cat' will reappear as 'tea,' the order of the letters being dis arranged. "There are 484 possible combina tions of the letters of two 22-letter alphabets, taken two by two. Bacon stakes every one of the 484 represent letter of his alphabet and with them spells his words in Latin in the way Indicated above." Scholars probably never will agree, TJr. Newbold said, how the Bacon text Should be reconstructed. U. S. MEDIATION DENIED Continued From First Pane.) out her reparations obligations.

Three economic reports were adopt ed: First, concerning the working of mines; second, financial administra tion, and third, feeding of the popu lations and the families of mine workers. One hundred thousand French troops, in addition to those now on the Rhine, were provided for in the plan elaborated by the commission, according to La Liberte. There now are 80,000 French troops In the occupied territory, the average cost for the maintenance of which is 44.000.-000 francs monthly. La Liberte added that the plan calls for the occupation of two-thirds of the Ruhr industrial valley and also Elberfeld and Barmen in West- nhalia. ' The essential principle of the eco nomic measures consists, according to the paper, of continuation of the n-nrkinir of- the mines and mills and other plants by German companies under control of the allies. The al lied plan provides that a certain per centage of coal mined snau oe ex ported to Germany, xne percenms ,h'i.h matr h modified is now set at 25 per cent, says La Liberte, which ijd. that tin additional tax of 10 marks cmtT la th eX isting tax of 10 marks gold on every ton sold out side of the Ruhr, and 3 marks sola nn lin-nilfi will be levied. The percentage of the shares or tne allies in the profits from uerman Inrinstrv have not been fixea. Th nlnn also provides for a 40 per cent tax on all exports from the Ruhr. No goods will be permitted to leave the Ruhr zone before the amount is deposited, in a bank. It provio.es also for mannufacturing under al lies control of certain exportable articles and the delivery of raw ma terial, the value of which will be placed to the credit of Germany on reparations. La Liberte said it Is expected pro ceeds from the coal deliveries alone will amount to 1.900.000.000 francs yearly, while the returns from the other industries are figured at one billion. nrn n niinnnre p IILHU UllUIIULU UU T INESS LULL or bus Persons of Moderate Means Can't Afford Luxury. GERMAAV REFUSES COLD liere. From the urgent nature of the German appeal it was the belief of some officials and diplomats that the Berlin government found itself in an extreme position. Germany Held to Blame. In its first memorandum to the United States on reparations, which was drawn on last March 24, Germany said she was ready to meet any pro posal which appeared feasible "for the solution of the economic and finan cial problems of Europe" and that she invited the examination by unbiased experts of her ability to pay. It was added that it was clear to both the people and the government that Ger many would have to pay to the limit of her ability. In replying. Secretary Hughes eaid that the United States stood with the allies in holding Germany "respon sible for the war and therefore mor any bound to make reparations so far as may be possible." "This government," Mr. Hughes continued, believes that it recog sizes In the memorandum of Dr. fcimons a sincere desire on the part of the German government to reopen negotiations with the allies on a new fcasis and hopes such negotiations may lead to a prompt settlement which will satisfy the just claims of the allies and permit Germany hope fully to renew Its productive activi ties." FORMAL- REQUEST IS MADE German 'ote Forwarded to State Department by Envoy. BERLIN. April 21. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The German govern ment has formally asked the presi dent of the United States to mediate in the reparations question. The note embodying the request was forwarded Wednesday by Loring Dresel. the American commissioner in Berlin, to the state department in Washington. The note was signed by Chancellor Fehrenbach and Dr. Walter Simons, the foreign minister. The appeal pledged Germany to ac cept the mediation without reserva tions and to fulfill absolutely any award President Harding might make after examination and Investigation into the subject. The text of the note to President Harding follows: "In the name of the German gov ernment and the German people, the undersigned, notwithstanding the still existing technical state of war, re spectfully petition the president of the United States to mediate in the reparations question and to fix the sum to be paid by Germany to the allied powers. "They earnestly urge him to obtain the consent of the allied powers to such mediation. They solemnly de clare that the German government, is ready and willing to agree, without reservations or qualifications, to pay to the allied powers as reparations such sum as the president may find Just and right. "They formally pledge themselves to fulfill in letter and in spirit ail the provision of any award that may be made by him. w ith abiding faith in the righteousness of this request, and with undeniable sincerity of purpose, the German people, through their con stituted government, submit their ap peal to the president of the United States, with the confident hope that i: will be granted, to the end that the final award may be made in accord ance with right and Justice, to m?et the heartfelt wishes of all civilized nations to avoid the immeasurable consequences of the Imminent co ercive measures and to promote the peace of the world."

(Special.)- With the decline in the prosperity of the United States, Reno's divorce colony is beginning to show a de crease in numbers. That divorce is a luxury, as has often been claimed by members of the colony, appears to be borne out by the fall ing off in the number of persons who come here to have their matri monial ties severed. The popula tion of the colony at present will probably not run far over 700, where as the normal figure is approximately 800. Last year the banner month of the year saw 107 suits for divorce filed compared with an average of about 80. In the first two months of this year there have been granted only 123 decrees. 59 in January and 64 in February. . The. number of cases filed was HO. Demands on Hotels Less. Apartment houses and hotels report that the demand for accommodations has shown a slight decrease, but that those who come appear to be well supplied with money. The more fash' ionable apartment houses, have suf fered least from the falling off In business, and the better class of resi dences, which are usually leased to those coming here for divorces, are in as great demand as ever. Thus, it is the person of moderate means, the one who during the high tide of prosperity spent his or her money for luxuries with as free hand as it was spent for necessities, who is missing from the colony. This latter class has been the most conspicuous part of the portion of the population seeking divorce and, of course, their absence is more appar ent than real, so far as numbers and amount of money spent is concerned. The wealthier members of the colony lead more secluded lives, although there are some among this element who do not shun the spotlight of pub licity if. the publicity does not have a direct connection with their court suit. Lawyers Get 250,00. Due to the more quiet life led by a majority of the persons who are possessed of wealth,' the folks with moderate means are more easily iden tified as seekers after another taste of single blessedness. Estimates by the county clerk show that about 12.000.000 is spent here each year by the divorce colopy. This Is considered a very conservative fig ure. Lawyers' fees are believed to reach at least $250,000. There are 95 lawyers in this little city, which the last census showed had a population of 12,016. By far a majority of these attorneys receive their chief Incomes from divorce cases, and there are many of them who are never seen in court except in connection with di vorce matters. New York state leads in the number of persons who come here seeking divorces, with New Jersey and Penn sylvania next in order. There are a large number who come here from the middle western states to obtain di vorces, but there are comparatively few from California, the largest ad joining state. The divorce laws of Nevada are almost identical with those of California, except that here the law provides for six months' res idence, and in the latter state a year's residence is required before suit may be riled. California grants interlocu tory decrees, the final decree being is sued automatically one year after ward. In Nevada when the court ren ders judgment the final decree is en tered. Plrkford Case Upsets Dope. The Owen Moore-Mary Pickford di vorce trial for a time threatened to play havoc with the divorce industry. An old statute which permitted the granting of a divorce without the six months' residence in the state of the plaintiff if the defendant was found in the county where the suit was instituted was invoked and the decree granted. Mis? Pickford stating she Intended to make her home In Nevada. As a result of the agitation which followed the granting of the decree to miss Plcktord, Bishop George C. Hunt ing of the Methodist church sponsored a law which would require a year's residence in the state and would pro vide for interlocutory decrees. When the legislature met this winter the battle over the divorce laws promised to be hard fought, but the business men of Reno, backed by the lawyers, offered a law which removed the pos sibility of another such instance as the Pickford case and the passage of it by the legislature preserved the essential points of the measure under which practically all of the divorces have been granted in this state. Divorces Grow With War. Like the white eleohants of Slam, a divorce prospect is accorded a certain amount of veneration here, but unlike the albino pachyderms, they are an asset and not an expense. One hears little talk among the business men here about divorce and the secaecy which the lawyers maintain would surprise jurists in other sections who may have formed opinions as to the loquacity of lawyers. Reno enjoyed in 1919 a large patron age that came in the wake of the war. During that year there were more young men here for divorce than any other year, it is said. Most of these were men who married when the war broke out, some doubtless because they felt they should be fighting for some girl as well as Uncle Sam, but many of them, it is understood, for the reason that they believed they might be given a deferred classifica tion in the selective draft.

Prnwntnp Mpver onenea ine argu mcnt for the state at iu:iu and closed at S:20 P. M. Then A. w, Davis began the argument tor me defense. He closed at 6 o ciocn. Attorney Davis characterized the late John B. Milholland, Ilougn s partner, as "one of the most dangerous crim lna.l who ever walked tne streets of Spokane." $40,000 Frand Charged. Thrniin-h alleced fraudulent trans actions, the now deiunci urm ui Milholland & Hough is declared to have defrauded James F. Callahan, wealthy north Idaho mine owner, of upward of J400.000. In instructing the jury, Superior Judge Oswald defined duress, which Hough has set up as a defense. Judge Oswald declared it "an action done under the compulsion of another nnrier fear of death or great bodily injury." He stated that the defend ant must not be found guilty, unless intent to defraud was estaonsnea. In closing his argument. Prosecu tor Mever ridiculed Hough's account nf thA eireiimstances -under which it was claimed the bonds were forged and said that Hough's stories when examined closely would not hold water. SOO Signatures Forged. "Think of a man signing 300 signa tures with a pistol held at his neaa nnd then walking down the street afterwards with the man who held the pistol." said Prosecutor Meyer. "Miss Grace Gilliam of ' Pendleton testified that her signature on the Teel bonds was cleverly done. An other witness said that the forgeries were so good that he could not tell whether they were his own signa tures or not. Could a man write like that under circumstances as related by the defendant? Stories about the various bond forgeries all sound alike. "Members of the Jury, I tell you Mr. Hough's intentions were no bet ter than the intentions of Mr. Mil holland. according to the testimony of Mr. Hough. "I will now show you 75 orders issued to the firm of Walter J. Nicholls to buy and sell on the stock market. I have checked these orders very closely and find that 25 of them have been Issued by Mr. Hough him self, 24 have been issued to the per sonal account of Mr. Hough, one has heen sis-ned for Mr. Hough and -5 showed that they had been ordered and signed by Mr. Milholland. Orders Are Offered. 1 will offer these orders to you for vour own inspection and they alone will speak the truth. Mr. Hough has not been able to explain wny tney were signed by him. "Mr. Hough's personal account shows that he lost over $100,000, and it also shows that he had $51,000 at one time." In speaking for the defense, Attor ney Davis said: "Fear controls more of our actions than any other motive. Why do we lock our doors? Why do we keep our children In at night? It is on account of fear. Why do we have a police force? On account of fear that we will have our property taken from us or that we will be attacked. "Why do i we have a great navy? Because of fear of foreign encroach ments. Why do we go to war? Be cause of fear that if we did not, civ ilization would fail.'

Still she waits and trusts, firm in the belief that some day her husband must win. Downtown, where they know her husband, they have given up all idea that he will ever be "a success." "A jood fellow," they say, "honest and lard-working, but there's something acking in him." So they have let him work away the years of promise; until now he has -come to the years when men no longer expect success. He is one of the tragedies of the business world, in wich there are no sadder words than these: "He lacks personality." Thousands of men are condemned to small positions simply because they started in life with erroneous ideas of business fundamentals.' Other thousands succeed because they start out with views that prove helpful. Which one are you going' to be? Suppos ing today that you take stock of your assets and USE THEM. Supposing that you get right down -to real business facts, namely, that 90 of the world's business every day is done on credit; that most rich men do business on 30, 60 and 90 days 'and some times a year's credit. When they or their families buy anything at the stores they say "charge it." When they run short of cash at the bank they say "here's my note for a thousand." It's squarely up to you to figure these things out for yourself and to realize that the first essential of success is personality. Therefore, get your per sonality working without further delay. Personality starts with "a good opinion of yourself." And a good opinion of yourself starts with good clothes.
