I,uMln. May 21. (U. P.) John Dillon,
.chairman' of the United Irish league, to
'day appealed to America to withhold
Judgment upon the present grave situa
tion In Ireland until the Irish people can
be heard. ,
1 Dillon asked that the United States
be not deceived by "propagandist mis
; t epresentatlons, aiming to prejudice the
. American people' and the American gov
ernment against Ireland."
lie characterized the government's
action as "suspicious," and said he be
lieved the government's sweeping arrests
were "aimed against the Irish self-de-termlnatloniita
as much as against the
" Dublin, May 21. (U. P.) Dublin to
day la outwardly still very calm- The
streets are thronged with groups of
men discussing me mow wnicn ieu upon
' the Hinn Feiners when more than 100
. arrests were made. It Is evident that
the government made a clean sweep of
rebel leaders In every community.
It seems to have left the Sinn Feiners
guideless and uncertain what action to
take next, although they appointed Al
derman Kelly and John MacNell to re
place De Valera and Griffith: Kelly
and MacNell are of the milder element
and are expected to counsel moderation
and no. violence.
In i their street talk the Sinn Feiners
defy the government to show proof of a
German. plot for an Irish uprising and
demand the proof be quickly produced.
The more rabid ones savagely and open
ly avow that talk of German Influence
Is a plot by England to kill Sinn Fein-
" Ism.
;if the government has got the
goods," they said, "then we'll repudiate
our leaders and get others. However,
we do not believe that so many have
been connected with a German plot."
Sinn Fein headquarters have re
opened. Officials announced that 84
leaders have been arrested and they
expected more arrests.
The Interior of Ireland Is calm. Eve
ning newspapers demand that the gov
ernment produce - proof of Its German
claims and charge that the government
announced the alleged plot simultane
ously with the visit of the American
labor delegate so as to blacken Ire
land In the eyes of the Americans.

The plant of the Fowler Airplane
company and a cabinet factory next

apparently started in several places at
the same time today.
The first swept the entire block of
wooden structures bounded by Howard,
Mission, Twelfth and Thirteenth streets.
Damages were estimated at nearly
$1,000,000. Fourteen, flats were de
stroyed. The Walter White Hardwood

Threatening Letters Received
A new shipment of Irish Hnen to be
used in making airplane wings . was
"burned up." Robert Fowler, owner of
the airplane factory, said the linen was
worth several hundred thousand dol
lars. The L. & E. Emanuel company, cabi
net makers, who were making airplane
parts for Fowler under a government
sub-contract, have recently received
anonymous threatening letters.
The fire started about 7 a. m. At 9
o'clock it was practically under con
trol. Firemen saved some of the machin
ery from the Fowler plant.
Two Airplanes Destroyed
Two completed airplanes which were
to have been delivered to the govern
ment today were destroyed. Two oth
ers were delivered yesterday. '
The Fowler company's plant has been
under close guard for several weeks,

the factory. . He said some of the linen
ana other valuable material had been
removed from the factory recently and
the linen destroyed was -probably worth
about $50,000.
Boarder of Years r
Buys in Order to
Keep Hotel Open
Hillsboro. Or.. May 2L The Tual-i
atln hotel, built here In the 60's, has
changed hands, the Footes. owners
for several years, having sold It to
William McQuillan, rejlred farmer
and lawyer. The Foofea last week
advertised that they would close
their dining room, after It haa been
open to the public for over 50 years.
McQuillan had lived the major por
tion or the time at tne iamous nos
teiry. and when he objected to the
shutting up of the dining room the
proprietor banterlngly told him he
had better buy It. McQuillan asked
the price, which is said to have been
in the neighborhood of $10,000. and
he immediately paid a substantial
sum to hold the bargain until deeds
could be signed.
The hotel is located on Main street
in the heart of the main business
district and has a "frontage of 61
feet, the lot running through the en
entire block.

Berne. May 21. (I. X. S.) General
Skoropatski, who recently proclaimed
himself hetman of the Ukrainians, has
been gravely wounded In street fighting
in Kiev, the capital of Ukrainla. ac
cording to information received here to'
day.
The hetman's palace was beseiged
and attacked several times by troops
faithful to the old anti-German govern
merit.
A state of civil war in Ukrainla has j
grown out of the revolts against Ger
many. General Von Elchhorn, com
mander of the Austro-German forced in
L'krainia, has received orders to put
down the rebellion.
It is now believed; that the German
military authorities will assume com
plete power in Ukrainla and that the
new government at Kiev will be dis
missed. Absolute domination would give Ger
many an opportunity to rush food and
cattle to their own country from Russia
and levy Indemnities upon the poor
peasants.
It is reported that Germany will soon
declare the old paper money in Russia
worthless and will substitute German
currency, which will be the sole legal
tender, tKu3 forcing the peasants to
turn in their Russian paper money.
Austrian Town in Flames
Geneva, May 21. (I. N. 8.) A de
layed dispatch from Vienna quoting the
newspaper Fremdenblatt said that the
town of Rimas Zombat had been burn
ing since last Tuesday.
Rimas Zombat is in Austria-Hungary,
73 miles northeaat of Budapest. It has
a population of "about 6000.
"There is not an available bed in any
Portland hospital for an emergency in
Jury case, so crowded are the hospitals
with patients. Two hospitals must be
built on the University of Oregon medical
school campus In South Portland within
60 days unless a combined city and
county hospital is constructed."
This is what Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie,
dean of the medical school of the Uni
versity of Oregon, told the members'
council of the chamber of commerce,
which met yesterday afternoon to discuss
means of reconstruction and of retialn
ing wounded and maimed soldiers.
W." A. Marshall of the stat- industrial
accident commission, another speaker,
declared that men who were injured in
industrial plants should be given the
same chance to take the retraining
course as the men who returned from
the front.
"There are 150 persons ar year perma
nently injured in Oregon industries," he
said.
Other -speakers were Frank Shepherd
who has charge tf war reconstruction
In-the Northwest, and Lieutenant Mac
kinnon, . one of the wounded Canadian
soldiers in Portland 'for the Red Cross
drive.
Lieutenant Mackinnon said that so ef
fective was the work of the Red Crosj
on the battlefield that an injured sol
dier had a 90 per cent chance for recov
ery if he was removed from the field In
six hours, 95 per cent if he reached
Red Cross hospital, and 98 per cent if
sent to England)

Expect End of War This Year

many expects an honorable end of the
war this year," said Von Richthofen,
leader of the Left group of National
Liberals in the reichstag In an interview
by the Berlin correspondent of the New
Journal of Vienna, according to Infor

Dr. Von Kuehlman, German foreign
secretary, was quoted In an Interview
in the Vienna press as saying:
"The new Austro-German alliance is
not Intended to divide the world Into
two hostile camps. The object of the al

University of Oregon, Eupene. May
21. Reconstruction will be the general
topic of the tenth' annual common
wealth conference, to be held In Port
land June 20 and 21, according to a
preliminary bulletin just issued by Pro
fessor F. . Young of the department
of economics and sociology, who is di
rector of the conference. The recon
struction topic Is divided Into two Parts
international after the war, and
state.
Oregon's reconstruction problems are
listed In the bulletin under the follow
ing headings : Land settlement ; forest
utilization ; the problem of an economic
power for factory, field and home; an
adopted transportation rate system
with adequate faculties; a reconstruc
tion finance system ; a reconstruction
employment system ; the problem of
selecting a staple industry or two for
which Oregon has comparatively the
preferred combination of continuing
advantages and fostering it on a well-
matured public welfare basis, and the
problem of adapting Oregon s educa
tional agencies so that the rising gen
erations may be best equipped for the
ever-increasing democratic cooperation
of the future.
For the consummation of Oregon's
after-the-war needs Professor Young
suggests the mobilisation of city offi
cials, county authorities, aspirants for
service in the legislature, and expert
leaders for the respective develop
mental undertakings decided upon.
