S7 Si' yrstiS&sr. BT LUCILE F. SAUNDERS. I BUENOS AIRES. R. A., June 6. (Special.) There is perhaps no place in the world where the American has not penetrated at some time or another, and the writer is be ginning to think that not a small proportion of those folk who have scattered themselves around In odd places of the globe are still talking of umbrellas, loganberries, red apples .nd big trees and claiming to have lived In Oregon. If Portland, Me., and Portland, England, were admitted to the eligible list, there- are the makings of; an excellent Portland club in Buenos Aires. Every f erw weeks somebody drifts through and notifies tbe populace that he is a. webfooter, ferings news of familiar places and people, then seeks out a steamship office and inquires the quickest way to "get back home." Professor Dubach Leaves. Argentina. Is & big and 'beautiful land of opportunity, but those who have lived among the fir-clad hills and veen tho snow-capped mountains dream ever of the day when they shall Jtave the flat plains of the eastern seaboard. Not less than two days past there (tiled on the steamer Huron for Mon tevideo and Rio de Janeiro Professor XT. G. Dubach of the political science department of the school of commerce .t Oregon Agricultural college. He (tailed direct from New York to Callao, 3Peru, passed about a week in that untry, went south down the coast of Caila and finally crossed the Cordil leras on the Trans-An dine railroad. The route was blocked at one place 3n the mountains and he went on rid ,.4ngr a mule. - The trip is purely a vacation one ' but the educator Is making notes for use In his lectures at the college this cotninf fall, being especially interest ed in the racial characteristics of the Pople and problems of living condi tions. He left the United States May and plans to return by September 1. 'Cold 'Weather Encountered. His journey across the Andes fur B-ished about the only thrill and that principally was a cold one, for water was froxen everywhere and in many places the train went between walls of imow higher than the coaches. Ho found a remarkable similarity letwen Oregon and the territory around Mendoia, in the western part of Argentina, where the climate eeemed typical of the Willamette val : ley. He also noticed this same re semblance in the fruit valley of Val paraiso and) Santiago, with its fruit farms, pastures and hay. "Ingenlero Agronomo" reads the line aoross the bottom of the calling card of Roberto N. Justo of Buenos Aires, andi right "below this are sev eral more words, "B. S. Oregon Agri cultural college." Professor Dubach had not far to search for somebody he knew. Roberto Justo, born of Argentine parentage, spent eight years in the United States and chose the west in which to receive his schooling. Four of them went for preparatory work at Washington State college, three were passed at Corvallls and the last at the University, of California. On April 15 he retimed to his native land but brought with him ideas that are typically those of the Pacific coast. SnpIIttKV Taken Home. Futhermore, he has brought some tning even more substantial than those schemes of horticultural im provement that aTe in his head. He brought with him saplings such as grape fruit, alligator pears, apricots, prunes, walnuts and all sorts of figs, and these he is going to attempt to adapt to the needs f this country. Mr. Justo, who is an expert in nor ticulture, has just completed an ex tensive tour of the Argentine, makin a survey of climate and soil condi tlons before he proceeds to put i practice the things he learned in the west. Oregon Agricultural college is not the only contributor from the state, Take, for lnstanoe, the American Ex press company. A little over a year ago Miss Bessie B. Baker was fre quenting the University of Oregon ex tension school in the library several nights a week and it became gener ally known in the Spanish classes that she was about to put her training there to advantage. Shortly after ward she sailed tor Buenos Aires to become secretary to the general man ager of the main office of the com jany for Argentina, bavins nad.traio- Ing as secretary to the superintendent1 in Portland. Now Miss Baker endured the new comer's usual first few months of boarding house hunts and finally packed bag and baggage and moved to a suburb called Belgrano, just one hour from the center of the city by street car. She had decided to take drastic steps in order to learn Spanish as it is spoken in the Argentine and this was move No. 1. As a result she is now heroically shivering in a cement house with a patio and no stoves and passing her leisure mo ments getting to and from the office on a street car. She now talks like a native. On the floor below Miss Baker in the American Express company's building is W. L. Gregory, formerly connected with the business office of a Portland newspaper. He arrived in Buenos Aires last October, coming from New York, whence he had gone from Oregon. He is now asisstant to the general auditor for South Amer ica and likes the Latin countries so well that when an office is established n Rio de Janeiro he hopes to be sent there. AVIsners Well Known. Two folks who are well known In the vicinity of Portland are Mr. and Mrs. J. Nelson Wisner, who have been n South America a number of years. passing the last two of them in this ity. Mr. Wisner was with the United States bureau of fisheries in Oregon and as long as there was the ositlon of superintendent of hatch eries, created in 1898, he held that office. His work with fisheries brought him to Montevideo seven years ago for the government of Uru guay and he later came to Buenos Aires as manager of the United States chamber of commerce. More recent ly he deserted this tor the advertising business and has expanded his "pub- llcldad" service until he occupies nearly an entire floor in one of the downtown buildings. Mr. Wisner was a pal of E. E. Bro die of Oregon City and he has friends all over Portland. To hear him talk one would never suppose he had left there so many years ago, but the Weekly Oregonian perhaps accounts for his familiarity with events at home, as he has a stack of these pa pers with every mail hoat. One of the activities he was much interested n while in Oregon was the Arts and Crafts society and the art experience he displayed to advantage there has served him well in the advertising business. Mrs. Wisner will be Temembered as Miss Pratt of Oregon City, member of the pioneer Barclay family. Oregonlans Are Loyal. inB writer muse not neglect an other old friend she chanced upon yesterday, in the onTice of the Asso ciated Press she heard one of the ed tors commening upon a little maga zine he had picked up in another building and brought to his sanctum to look over. It proved to be the Mav issue of the Export and Shipping journal, tne one which leads off with a lengthy article about the port of foruana. A bit of propaganda here and a bit there seems to have its effect in the long run and Oregonians here are most loyal. Professor Dubach has it to his credit that an English reporter on tne isuenos Aires Herald, a very conservative individual, became very enthusiastic about the agricultural college ana devoted two-thirds of column to telling Argentina about It The following is quoted from the article: "Mr. Dubach stated that he was taking, advantage of the summer va cation to study business conditions, agriculture, economic and governmen tal conditions in South America in the interests of the Oregon Agricutural eoLlege. He left the Unitedi States on May 11 and hoped to return to New York by September 1. The people In the United States, especially In the western states, were evincing an ever increasing interest in Latin-America and for this reason he considered there was nothing like obtaining first hand Information and studying the many strong and weak points of for eign systems. New Coarse Planned. "Trade between the western states and Latin America had increased con siderably since the opening of the Panama canal and in view of this growing interest Mr. Dubach inti mated that on his return he intended next year to institute a Latin-America course of study at the College. To day the school has 3700 pupils devoted mainly to the study of agriculture, en gineering, commerce, home economics, pharmacy and forestry. Among these students were several Americans, in eluding a young fellow from Buenos Aires named justo, wno graauaiea two years ago. "Interchange of students was im portant and desirable and the school had every reason to expect a greater influx of South American - students than formerly. Although at the pres ent time the college was taxed to ca pacity, they were always glad to re ceive mem. . i 'The college made - no tuition ' and-span resort. in his pocket. All that he needs for entrance is a passport, a clean bill of health, a mental certificate and a po-, lice certificate. Argentina does the rest. In the big building are 12 dormito ries scattered through the three floors, each sleeping room accommodating 272 people. There is a vast dining hall with marble-topped tables and a kitchen adjoining filled with steam cookers that hold 600 litres apiece, and from each 850 persons may be served. There are 13 such kettles. On a busy day as many as five sacks of potatoes have gone through the pat ent peeling machine and into' the meal, the piece de resistance of which is puchero, a species of stew. From the store room come sacks of bread made, by the inmates of the penitentiary, macaroni and spaghetti, garbanzas or queer little beans, and, in place of coffee, the mate herb. In this way the newcomer is given an introduction to the food of his new land immediately upon his arrival. Motion Pictures Furnished. At night after dinner the visitors are treated to motion pictures snow ing scenes and industries all over the country. When the man of the house hold finally obtains- a Job, he and his family are given free transportation to their new home and not until their arrival does the government cease to care for them. October. November and December are the buesist months at the immi grant hotel, for it is liven that the influx -from Europe is greatest and many a time there are 6000 people .being cared for on a single day. It is an establishment, where the clientele always changing, where one day there is a flood of olive-skinned Ital ians and the next day a horde of blond. Germans, where many lan guages are spoken. In five days per haps they have all gone on and the place has filled up from another steamer. These guests range from roving street peddlers to folk of fair ly comfortable circumstances, who have been forced for the sake of econ omy to Journey by way of the steerage. Germans Are Numerous. This applies especially to the er man, who. finding his mark of such scanty value, buys a third-class ticket and moves to the new world. Possibly he is a professional man, an engineer, a professor or a doctor. Mayhap, as was the case of one steerage passen ger not long ago, he has brought with him machinery and possessions of great value. Customs inspectors have not yet recovered from their aston ishment at finding one of these indi viduals traveling with 7000 kilos of equipment. Many immigrants get their first les sons in cleanliness here, for the hotel is equipped with baths, laundries and wash stands a plenty and guests have no choice about dodging a twice-a-week shower. Possessed of a vivid Imagination Is the individual who can find excuse for grlmlness in this spic- had' bad your small farm in Flanders seven years ago and today had noth ing but bitter memories and a shell shattered basement In a ruined house to live in? It might be the least bit difficult for you. in such a pbight, to remember high words about brother hood of men and turning the other cheek. It is true Just as much of the German who was unable to accom pany his wife to the office of an American relief committee a while ago, to be examined in regard to hds evident need for assistance along the path of life. He couldn't come unuil his wife got home, because between them they only had one suit of clothes. They had to come one after the other. Things were not always thus with him, and, like the Belgian. he follows tradition and the obvious facts, and blames it on tbe nations with which his nation fought. In America, one travels a week or more and covers thousands of miles and at the end of the journey, as throughout it, one is in a country where they still speak the same lan guage, and think the same kind of thoughts. No passports, nor weary trips to consular offices, no Identlflca tion papers, police registration, or any other, red tape is necessary. But the same length of travel In this' con tinent of many nations would neces sitate eight or ten languages, hours spent tin line at Consular offices, many red stamps and great irritation. The writer was refused entrance to Den mark, which was not in the war, be cause his passport did not have the stamp of the Danish consul in Berlin which is the capital of a country that was In the war. This despite the neatly engraved passport of Charles Evans Hughes, issued by the state department and requesting all who read to "let the bearer pass freely.' So much for a group of straws. It would be easy to develop them Into a dozen fully-developed haystacks, but they would all point to the same thing. Which thing It would be well for the next man to take into account when he is about' to rearrange the world EUROPEAN PEOPLES SCATTER STRAWS OF HUMAN DISTRUST National Psychology Indicates Ominous Future Unless There Is Leaven ing of Hate Which Lurks Everywhere and Constantly Flares. H BT ROGER WILLIAM RIIS. ALF a dozen identical reactions Indicate to the chemist the be ginning of a line of truthful reasoning. They are not Iinai, com plete evidence, but they are useful to that end. In just that spirit tne following half dozen curious incidents are offered; not as final evidence or case that wants to be proved, dui notes of experiments along the way. They are straws, nu mej uij or may not show which way the wind that moved them is blowing. m w w An American was waiting his turn before the exchange wmaow oi a European bank. "Let's see " he said. "What kind of money do they have in Denmark? Oh, yes. kroner. Huh. same ining mney have in Holland and Austria." For a minute or two he oigestea this somewhat erroneous remarn. Then he added, petulantly: Gosh, but it s a nuisance to travel in Europe what with their money, their language and their blamed passports!" This remark came to me during a summer of suffering from these same grievances, and it put the cornerstone to a growing arch of incidents col lected along the way. Two months before. I sat one evening on the steps of a little inn in Rheims, chatting with the proprietress. Among the opening remarks which always are addressed to every traveler every here, she eventually asked: "And where are you going from here?" 'To Germany, I replied. Oh!" she said. Then, baring her teeth ever so little looking just the least bit like a dog about to growl, she' inquired further: "Is It necessary? Is it necessary! This woman lived In France, and to her it seemed not only unnecessary but more or less In comprehensible that any one should want to go into Germany. Perhaps she had not yet forgotten . the fact that great beams were at that mo ment propping up the dining-room ceiling and that the putty was not at that moment dry In the patched-up bullet holes In the walls. So when she spoke of the country which had done these things to her, her hu manity took on the wolf note. A week later found me in Coblenz on the Fourth of July. The Ameri can soldiers, who run the town as completely as they ever ran any dug out In the battle fields, were mak ing merry in the streets with a rous ing old-time celebration of an Ameri can Fourth. Skyrockets whizzed and sputtered up and down the street, level with the pedestrians' waists, and extremely potent firecrackers blew up every few minutes In the lobby of the hotel nearest the firing line. This had been going on for 48 hours without intermission, and all German nerves were stretched to the breaktng point. Of a sudden, a double-sized cannon cracker exploded under the cashier's desk, and the hotel rocked. When the smoke had cleared away, the clerk, something of the old-style Prussian, wore on his face the set smile of one who is determined to smile at any cost. "Cheer up," said an American, "it soon will be over." "Yes," he answered. "We must be patient. We try to be very patient with all our visitors. And there was in his grin as he spoke exactly the same hint of sav agery that the woman in Rheims had shown. What he said was, "We try to be patient with all our visitors What lie evidently meant was, "The devil take you and all other foreign era." Another straw. There is in Berlin an excellent official of the German foreign office whose job it is to dis pense information on what the for eign office Is doing. Naturally, he has been chosen for his position, be cause, among other things, he has a charming manner and a knowledge of wnat to say, and when to say and when not to say it. In the course of a discussion as to why the reichstag nan lost some two-score votes since the war because of the loss of terri tory, he came to the subject of Schleswig-Holstein. uenmarK, ne said, "till then a nice, gentlemanly little country, came along with its claim for German land. Nothing in that remark as vou read it; but there was a world of meaning in nis voice as.ne said it. Once again the wolf note of the Rheims woman ana me coblenz porter; even the trained diplomat couldn't always keep masked his feelings on the subject of ine neignDor nations. .' i wo otner straws followed each otner in quick succession on a train up in Mecklenburg. A Belsrian. ntlll nursing a leg where a German bullet had shattered it in 1914, summed up his thoughts on Germany thus: "The trouble with the Germans is that they always think themselves first in everything. They think they And ten minutes later the taxi driver on the way to the hotel give out th statement that Americans he liked, because they were all right and didn't bother him any, but the French ugn: ino trouble with thm d that they always think they are the wucrs in everyinmg. Sooner or later in everv mnvru tion in Europe something like that will crop out. Imagine an American veering right away to his hatred for Canadians or Mexicans. The French eye tne uermane askance, the Ger mans -try to be patient with their visitors," tne Italians watch th Austrians, the Poles the Germans, and each of them stays up late wondering Jut what the others are about to do next. In America, a casual conversatio with a traveling acquaintance will run to pontics, weather, baseball, crops, the market. In Europe, ver soon after starting, it will run to th neighboring nations. If then you give it any encouragement, you are quite likely to receive a surprising earful of ancient grudges. A well-informed and up-to-date man in Frankfort pro duoea tnis, lor example: "Least of all we like the French, tor wnicn we nave good reason. Nex we put the English. The Americans we like perhaps best of the three, even though America did deceive us seriously about the peace. You talk about the Lusitania and the subma rine sinkings, but we talk about the 14 points and we think the score is even. All of you together have brought Germany to the condition in whiich she is today. Who knows when the next war will be? Perhaps 20 years. It will be more than that, of course, before Germany can start one."

LONDON. A solemn warning on the menace to Britain of the "Amer icanization of China" is uttered by a pecial far-eastern correspondent of the Daily Mail, who recently attended the 10th anniversary celebration of the American Indemnity (Tsing Hua) college In Pekin. The college was established as a result of the United States remitting part of its share of the Boxer indem nity. "The boys here are Chinas future leaders," the correspondent says, and fter pointing out that they all go to America after completing their tudies in Pekin, he continues: "Educated under the American sys- em, aware that they owe their schol arship to American justice, and satu rated with American sentiment by five to eight years' residence in the United States, they will look to America solely for co-operation in the troublous years to come. Amer ica is rearing the China of tomorrow. Why should not we" (the Brit ish) he demands, "share an Influence that we formerly monopolized and that is now slipping away from us?" and he goes on I asked a returned student as we watched the boys at baseball why China did not look to England as an educational field. Sure we will." he replied, "when you remit the Boxer indemnity." The Chinese president of the col lege put.lt to the correspondent this way: "Chinese-American friendship has become so proverbial that few people take the, trouble to investigate the cause of such good international un derstanding. Any country that wisnes to captivate the hearts of the Chinese can do no better than follow the example set by America." B. Lenox-Simpson, an englishman who holds the post of political ad viser to the Chinese government and who is at present In London, writes BY ANITA DE CAMPI. SOMETIMES a house, like an indi vidual, has a whole group of un usual characteristics. When this happens the result is always interest ing, and when the characteristics are pleasAit ones the attractiveness is quite beyond the power of conven tional qualities. In tbe case of this house the un usual features are pleasant. The con trast between the brick of the first story and the light stucco of the sec ond is one of these. Another is the fine sunporch at the side, placed so as to give privacy, and yet let the in mates command a view'of both street and garden. Another is the grouping and treatment of entrances. The main entrance is at the front and right-hand side, under a square hood. Down the side a little ways, un der another hood of the same kind. Is the eexvice entrance, and the space between is -paneled with stucco and timber. The effect Is not only unex pected, but charming to a degree. Climbing the steps under the shel tering hood, you come to a little re cessed entryway, which opens on a vestibule. At the left of this is the bread opening to the living room, 11 feet by 18. The ample fireplace Is on the inside long, wall, opposite a fine group of windows, and at the oppo site end from the vestibule French doors open onto the sun porch. This is 8 feet by 10, with three sides com posed almost entirely of glass. It is not only a delightful place in itself. but greatly increases the apparent size of the living room. Between the fireplace and the sun F1B.ST FLOOJi Ct iumi Hticar e porch room. is the opening to the dining This is really a short passage. leading by the stairs that go to the upper story. The dining room is 11 feet square and lighted from two sides. No butler's pantry intervenes between this and the roomy kitchen, which likewise has cross ventilation. The sink Is under one window, the table under another, and there are two large cabinets. The refrigerator is in the kitchen, but can be filled from the service porch. This adds handlness for the housewife to the advantage of keeping the Iceman's tracks out of the house. The side, or service, entry Is a small but much-used part of the house. It leads to the outdoors, to the base ment, and, by way of a closet, with hooks for coats and wraps on either side, to the vestibule and front door. Also it allows the children, in muddy weather, to get into the house and deposit their rubbers without carry- 5ECOND FLOO0 CCIIM4 MllfiHT ing water and mud into the living room. Upstairs are three bedrooms, two of them larger than is usual in a house of this size. All three have closets and cross ventilation. There is like wise a large bathroom, a linen closet, and a laundry chute. A low attic over the house aids in keeping cool in sum mer and warm In winter. The house is of frame construction, with brick veneer on the lower story and stucco above. If this stucco and the Inside plaster are laid on metal lath and the roof covered with as phalt, asbestos, or metal shingles, the house will be strongly fire-resistive, as well as nearly proof against decay. Seldom, indeed, is so much beauty and livableness wrapped up in one package, and that a small one. This house is only 24 by 29 feet, not count ing the sun porch. Yet it contains all that 's required for a comfortable, easy life for a fair-sized family, put up in beautiful, convenient and at tractive form. Americanization of China is a very real one. "Big business." he says, "Is tending to go more and more to American firms, because the Chinese believe in favoring those who favor them," and he concludes: t "The helpfulness of America, not only to young China but also to old China Is a subject of common con versation, throughout the immense Chinese society which fills the far eastern continent. So far the results of this have not been felt or under stood In this country, but unless we take speedy action, we are destined to drop during the next 12 months to third or fourth place in the Chinese republic, and thereby , affect our whole standing throughout Asia." Irrigation Project Begun. ROME. An immense irrigation project is under consideration for the province of Puglle. in south Italy. It is planned to use the water from the rivers Fortore and Bifanto to furnish enough moisture for a stretch of territory now arid and practically useless the entire year. The land aggregates 640,000 acres and If developed Is expected to grow wheat, barley, corn and oats. The derun and Blackburne. White, Mr. Ander son: black, &lr. Blackburne: White. Black. i White.
