PAHIS, May 20. (By the Associ
ated Press.) France is awaiting
with extraordinary interest the
arrival of J. P. Morgan to attend the
reparations loan conference. To the
imaginative Frenchman Mr. Morgan is
pictured as standing almost alone
among the great financiers who will
decide whether an international loan
shall be issued to assist Germany in
meeting her reparations payments.
While Mr. Morgan has given no In
dication, so far as it is known here, as
to the attitude he and the other
American financiers will take toward
proposals before the reparations com
mission. It Is assumed by French
members of the commission that the
Americans will want to know first of
all what proposals Germany is pre
pared to make regarding the terms
of such a loan and what guarantees
she can give to assure payment of the
principal and Interest charges that
will be suggested by the American
group.
France has imported a new dance
from Italy. It is called the "Balan
cello," and Is said to have been de
vised during the idle hours of the
Genoa conference. The frivolous
minded even go so far as to say that
It is the most tangible result of the
economic meeting. The new dance,
which seems to be supplanting the
shimmy and the tango, is described as
a one step accompanied by a slight
rolling motion.

Eight-Hour Day for Clerks
at Capitol Considered.
Longer Hours Believed to Enhance
Economy and Efficiency.
WASHINGTON. D. C, May 20. Es
tablishment of an eight-hour
day for employes in the executive
branches of the government is being
considered by the administration.
The thousands of clerks, stenog
raphers and other minor employes in
the various departments In Wash
ington, almost without exception,
work seven hours a day. The consid
eration being given to lengthening
of the day is predicated on the be
lief that It would enhance economy
and efficiency.
The old red building at First and
A streets, northeast, facing the Capi
tol, in which congress once met and in
which President Monroe was inaug
urated, will be dedicated tomorrow
by members of the national woman's
party as their home and as "the seat
of power of the women of the na
tion." , Unless the 1923 naval appropriation
bll Is passed and signed by the presi
dent before June 2. commencement
day at the naval academy, all of the
641 members of the first class, if they
so choose, will be commissioned in
the navy despite efforts in congress
to cut down the number of those to
he made officers.
The naval appropriation bill, which
is before the senate naval committee,
provides that not more than 200 mem
bers of the first class shall be com
missioned. As there is not much chance of the
bill's enactment within much less
than a month, house leaders said to
day that apparently the navy depart
ment would win its fight to commis
sion the whole of this year's class.
Postmaster-General Work, who at
one time was president of the Ameri

Physicians designated by the post
office department will be asked to
render such service or advice as is
needed, but in no instance will they
be permitted to recommend any par
ticular doctor or institution to any
employe. Certain days each month
will be set aside when employes wish
ing medical consultation will be per
mitted to undergo examination.
Stage Door Johnnies Wait
Impatiently in Autos.
Old Type of Bran at London Thea
ter No Longer Seen.
LONDON, May 20. Stage door
keepers of London theaters say
the stage-door "beau" is extinct and
has been replaced by a species of
young man more aply described by
the American term "stage - door
Jolinny."
The vanished "beau," according to
the guardian of one London stage
entrance, wore a large silk hat at an
acute angle, an elegant cape over his
evening clothes and waited, a bouquet
in one hand, a be-ribboned box in the
other, gold-knobbed swaggerstick
under one arm, to greet a chorus
girl and, with a graceful bow, to hand
her into his private hansom-cab.
Today, Jack doesn't do that. He
sits In his automobile, puffing a
cigarette, and when the other party
appears he calls from the curb: "Come
on, old girl, you've been a long time."
The car starts with a jerk and the
girl is hurled into a seat.
"I suppose they are more sensible,
but perpetual common sense makes
stage doors like most other places
these days they're awfully dull,"
says one doorkeeper.
Art Is Hobby of Chicago
Business Men.
Several Members of Board of
Trade Are Painters and Poets.
CHICAGO, May 20. (By the Asso
V- ciated Press.) Chicago, known
chiefly as an industrial center, may
yet rival Nuremberg as a romantic
combination of art and business, Ed
ward P. Butler, one of the city's lead
ing merchants, said in a recent ad-,
dress before a gathering of artists.
Expecting to hear Mr. Butler tell how
to build up business, the artists were
surprised when he told them that art
was a hobby of many of the biggest
business men here. Mr. Butler, him
self a painter, is said by critics to
possess unusual merit. He explained
that several members of the board of
trade are painters or poets when not
busy reading the ticker tape.

f
The continued lack of fur supplies
from Russia were reflected In the fur
market quotations for the past week,
which have shown considerable un
certainty although the downward

red hats which took the women of
Paris by storm have entirely disap
peared. In their wake has com a
small bell-shaped violet straw crea

inexpensive. Already there are signs
that the costly picture hat will be re
vieved with the warm days.
Silk continues to be displayed In the
large stores in great . quantities and
at prices ranging from $10 to (20 a
yard, with a downward tendency.
These showings display astonishing
colors, but the predominant note is
lavendar for evening wear.
gether Into real verse by establish
ing poetry schools is advocated by
Miss Harriet Monroe, one of Chica
go's leading exponents of art.
Not the classic verse structure of
poetry which was conceived to fit
ancient languages, but human rhyth
mic verse adapted to American speech,
is the kind of poetry school that
Miss Monroe believes and hopes will
become a reality.
"Present courses in our universities
which pretend to teach poetry are all
muddled up,' she said. "Usually such
courses are taught by those who have
merely the technical understanding
of poetry and who are not at heart
real poetry lovers. My idea of de
veloping poets would begin with a
social gathering place for artists.
"Of. course, the way poetry would
be taught would depend on the In
structor. He ought to be able to
write poetry himself, just as a music
teacher must be a musician."

NEW YORK, May 20. The second

War of Pump and Can Cuts
Price of Gasoline.
Americans nnd French Soon De
clare Treaty of Peace.
PARIS, May 20. The war of the
pump and can, which has been
sending the price of gasoline down
sharply during the past three months,
has ended in a treaty of peace be
tween the rivals.
The familiar red pump labelled
"filtered gasoline" was introduced
into the Paris region a few months
ago by an American concern and
spread rapidly, so rapidly that the
big local refiners, who have large
sums locked up in cans, grew alarmed
and began cutting prices against the
pump.
The pump interests responded and
between them the price of the gallon
aroppea oy stages from $1.50 to 75
cents. The belligerents then found
the war unprofitable, came to an ar
rangement and raised the price by
15 cents a gallon, at which advance
It remains fixed.

Russian New-Rich Indulge
in Orgy of Spending.
Moscow's Nlcht Life Gar as Ever
in Pre-War Days.
MOSCOW, May 20. Moscow's new
capitalists are indulging in an
orgy of spending that has enlivened
the city's night life "until restaurant
and cabaret scenes resemble the palm
iest days before the war when Musco
vite merchants spent money freely.
The millions of rubles netted by a
day's trade or speculation are squan
dered at night, because tomorrow the
money will buy less, as prices for
everything are climbing daily.
When the ruble was quoted recently
at nearly 2,50.0,000 to the dollar, prices
for foodstuffs and other commodities
were four to five times as high as a
month previous when the ruble was
worth nearly twice as much.
The ruble equivalent of a dollar
has purchasing powers that are fan
tastic when compared with American
standards, but which accurately typ
ify the real value of essentials as
compared to knick-knacks and su
perficial adornments.
A dollar will buy only 20 pounds
of black bread, two pounds of butter,
four pounds of meat, even less in the
line of new wearing apparel. But it
will buy

Lady Astor has been photographed possibly more than any foreign visitor to the United States in many
months, but declares this to be her favorite photograph. The attractive, vivid Ladv Astor. a Virtrinia e-irl has
taken the country by storm and has
porcelain that would bring ten times
as much in America. The necessary
things have leaped so high in price
that the people sacrifice the unessen
tials cheaply to get them.
The rising prices and decreasing
value of currency have sharpened the
contrast in the life of Moscow's inr
habitants. Thousands are unable to
buy even bread, while hundreds pay
the ruble equivalent of S5 for a din
ner at the brilliant night restaurants.

2 cents American, may be beyond the

A month ago foreigners living in
Moscow found life cheap when calcu
lated in American or English cur
rency. The soaring prices, however,
have changed all this, and on a com
parative scale the cost of living is
higher now in Moscow than in Berlin

Rowers Seek Admission in 1922
Henley Regatta,- World's Oldest
Blue Ribbon Aquatic Event.
LONDON, May 20. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The admission of
a crew composed of workingmen in
the 1922 Henley regatta, the world's
oldest blue, ribbon aquatic event, is a
question awaiting the decision of the
regatta officials which promises

these rules, having rules of its own,
promises to give the Melbourne in

that the barring of laborers is not
founded on snobbish prejudice, but it

Nevadan Claims to Have

would shave again. His heard is 11
feet 3 inches long, but before it was

NIVERSITT OF OREGON, Eu
gene, May 20. (Special.) Ex
cept for the notable Fenton and
Warner collections, Vlllard and Deady
halls, the furnishings of alumnae hall
of the women's building and part of
the construction of this structure,
gifts to the university have not been
very numerous or very great In the
past. Some generous persons have
given in money and in articles but
It is on the state that the institution
has had to depend for support. And
slate moneys have to be raised by
some form of taxation.
It is because the people already
have been as generous as their re
sources will allow with the university
and are heavily burdened with taxes
that a campaign for endowments has
just been inaugurated by the admin
istration. Working through quiet
appeals to the alumni of the institu
tion to bear the need for endowments
in mind and through serious minded
presentations of the subject to
groups of citizens gathered at the
university for various purposes the
campaign has since its active organi
zation some time ago been steadily
gathering headway and promises to
become an important element in the
future of the university.
New Library Declared Need.
The additional funds provided by
the millage tax passed by the people
May 1, 1920, were quickly dovoted to
essential construction and to bring
ing the maintenance up to standard.
There is some money available for
yearly construction work and to work
toward a more ideal amount of new
equipment, but there are not ade
quate funds for the construction of a
new library, for instance, to house
the volumes which now crowd the
old structure to capacity and which
are under a constant fire hazard. The
barren old assembly hall in Vlllard,
historic as it may be, cannot provide
seats for more than half of the stu
dents today. Then there is great
need for a building for the first
three years of medicine and another
for the sciences. Journalism is housed
in a labyrinth of deviously connected
annexes, wooden frame buildings
which are standing invitations to
disastrous fire. Architecture is
tucked away in an old brick edifice
by the Southern Pacific .railroad
tracks.
Under the present income of the
university it would be years before
these needs could be met adequately
But if a successful endowment can
be waged it is possible that within
the next five years the most urgent
of these needs can be met.

Historic Shop Is Shown to
American Tourists.
Sign Marks Place Where Tea Was
Shipped to Boston in 1773.
LONDON. May 20. In Greenchurch
Lane, an obscure byway i just
outside one of London's busiest com
mercial centers, American tourists
may see over a grocer's store the
"Sign of the Crown and Three Gilt
Sugar Loaves" that marks the loca
tion of the shop whence the tea was
shipped in 1773 that ultimately went
overboard in Boston harbor during
the world's famous tea party.
Only the sign, which was but re
cently restored and which bears in
big gold numerals "1650," the year
the firm was established, is sugges
tive of remote times. The grocer's
shop, conducted by descendants of the
firm's founders, over which the sign
hangs, is now housed in a modern
brick building. Inside nothing dis
tinguishes the place from thousands
of similar places of business.

gift can increase the efficiency and
scope of a single school or depart
ment is found in that of the Fenton
law library to the law school. By
this gift of some 12,000 law books
the library of the university school
was changed overnight from but an
average good library to one of the
best equipped west of the Mississippi.
In it are volumes which scarcely can
be obtained on the present market.
and although $50,000 would cover the
original purchase price, it could not
be duplicated for twice that amount.
Judge W. D. Fenton of Portland, a
noted Oregon barrister, gave them to
the University of Oregon in memory
of his son, Kenneth Lucas Fenton, a
former Oregon student, who died a
few years ago on the threshold of a
most promising career.
Women's Building Example.
The department of physical educa
tion for women is another beneficiary
of the generosity of the people of the
state. A series of gifts ranging in
sums from $1 to $5000 n an aggregate
of $108,000 was given by citizens and
organizations of the state to help
pay for the Woman's building, which
is the best home for a similar depart
ment in the world.
Practically the only real endow
ment possessed by the university was
given in the early years of the insti
tution, when Henry Vlllard, pioneer
railroad builder of the northwest, pre
sented $55,000 to be used for endow
ment. Because of this generous act
Vlllard hall was named after him. In
many ways the most historic of all
the campus structures.
Since that time the endowment fund
has grown scarcely at all until last
June the class of 1896, assembled for
its 25th reunion at commencement
time, raised $3000 to be placed in a
loan fund for students. At the end
of 150 years the compound sum,
which it is estimated will be $403,
827.47, will be given to the university
to do with as it sees lit.
Collections are also among the
things desired by the university. The
most recent gift of this nature is
that of Mrs. Murray Warner of Eu
gene, who presented a collection of
Chinese art objects gathered by her
and her late husband during seven
years of residence and travel in the
orient'.
A university is among the most
permanent institutions of society,
great educators have declared. Like
wise, a gift to such an institution is
among the most lasting of memorials,
for the name of the donor Is chiseled
into the ineffaceable memories of
countless generations of students
having prevented an impending war
with England.
It was ratified over extreme oppo
sition: was termed by democrat
republicans "complete surrender to
England," and by Lord Sheffield of
England on the other hand "that
most impolitic treaty of 1794, when
Lord Grenvllle was so perfectly duped
by Jay."
