8 THE OREGON DAILY - JOURNAL. POR TLAND. THURSDAY, JANUARY 8,' 1S23. SCANDINAVIAIS WATCHING EVENTS IN FATHERLAND Effect of Peace Talk, and Possi- : ble Sovietisra Trouble Claiming . Attention of Many Swedes. ' ipaalal CbU to The Journal and Tba Chjcaa . , Daily New. ' (Copyright, 1919, by CWcato Dr 3w Co.) Stockholm, Jan. 8. The -whole ol t Scandinavia is watching with In tense! Interest for the action of "the fjlerrnan government during the mo mentous debates upon the final set tlement of peace. All operation on the money market where big deals Ik German marks have been pending have ceased for the present, f Every line of commercial activity Is motionless pending the next fortnight's events which are fraught with extremely ' (rare possibilities tor these countries which In the future must depend largely upon German trade. ' 1 Passenger traffic from the Scandi navian klngrdom Into Germany ceased December 18. This ostensibly was to prevent a Christmas rush Into Germany but In reality was in preparation for de al si ve events across the frontier. , EVE5T8 BKIXO WATCHED In Stockholm's business circles every one is conjecturing upon the trend of - political and economic affairs in Berlin. ' The . editors of two Stockholm news papers who are maintaining the closest, possible touch with Berlin by telephone 1 and telegraph see nothing to indicate - the growth of a militaristic party or the ' overthrow of the present government by the conservatives I Their fear is that the working classes, driven by utter hopelessness of ever merging from the hard times, may turn to sovietlsm. This overshadows all other questions. In the allied countries the most important phase of Germany's condition is whether she will be able to pay Indemnities or whether she will ac cede to the demands for , the delivery of decking and dredging machinery. But these are Inconsequential to the neigh boring 'monarchies who must face a ter rific period ef danger if the muddle In Europe descends Into Bolshevism. PBJSOITEBS ABE COKSLDEBEO f 1 1 find absolutely too 'sympathy . with the allied demands among many well Informed Swedes with- whom I have talked. They do not believe that France Is entitled to hold the German prisoners any longer and they do not believe that the entente Is entitled to. Indemnity for the sinking of the German warships in Scapa Flow, t They feel that it Is In human to exact such a great portion of Germany's cattle, i For the ' past two days I have had frequent conversations with a German merchant named Philip who bu Just ar rived from Berlin, where he owns two factories producing toys, "Berlin's working classes now wait for the ; removal . of the blockade on trade," he said, "They are in an ex tremely bad mental condition and are poorly fed and clothed. , but all are eagerly expecting better times. If con ditions do not improve within the next three months they will feel that it IS the fault of the new form of govern ment TROUBLE HAT COME i There will come trouble. Many of my workmen are already confirmed Bolshe vik 1, who want to run my factories With a committee of workmen, but the majority are willing to await develop ments. I think two months will tell the tale, and then middle Europe will know whether It will continue republican or plunge into chaotio sovietlsm." Swedish business men are especially anxious over Germany's position on ac count of rapidly climbing price of Amer ican dollars and British pounds. They see fast approaching the day when trade in the West will be stopped by an im penetrable wall of exchange rates. Then they will be forced to turn to the South and East. Cupid Lures Her r From Politics Washington, Jan. 8. (L N. S.)

Now Missouri will be the only state not represented at the conference of Jem ocratlc women to be held tomorrow and Friday.. BOYCOni I CHINA GAIN GR ID Japanese Goods Burned and Their Ships Are Leaving Pekin WithouLCargoes, ! By William R, Giles : 8ptei CbU to Tit Journal sad The Csiesgs Daily New. (Oopyrirht. ISIS, by Chicago Daily News Co.) Pekin. China, Jan. I. Since the Japanese attack on the students at Foo -Chow the boycott In China against everything Japanese is being carried out more seriously than ever. Telegrams from all the large centers give details of the burning of Japanese products and large demonstrations.' The country's united chambers of commerce, representing 1400 cities, threaten to punish any merchant found buying' from the Japanese. Japanese ships leaving here are wtth .otit cargoes. Japanese merchants have appealed to their authorities to break down the boycott and the Tokyo gov ernment recently communicated to China the measures that must be taken to sup press the boycott and prevent anti Japanese propaganda. It is clearly seen that the Japanese are using the Poochow Incident to com pel 4he Chinese to make other conces sions. Chinese and Japanese investigators are now in Foochow. The Japanese re fuse to withdraw tbeir warships, de spite China's protest against their pres ence. The country's wholehearted sup port is encouraging the government to demand of the Japanese the punishment of those guilty and indemnities for those injured or killed.

Li'l Rabbit Runs Amuck, Bites Two Prinevtlle, Jan. 8.

LABOR TO GOVERN BRITAIN PREDICTED Head of Railway Union Declares George's CoalitionJs Bumping . Along to Sure Defeat ' By Edward Price Bell Special Cable to The Journal and The Chksts Daily Neva. (Copyright, 11B. by CbJeaae. Dally Km Co.) London, Jan. 8. Entire confi dence In the destiny of labor to govern Groat Britain marks the con versation of J. H. Thomas, M. P.. general secretary of the National Union of Railway Men, on his re turn to London from a tour of the provinces. ' "We are gaining strength," he says, "for two reasons: First, because our policies are vital, honest and humane ; second, because they are democratic, of fering even-handed justice to all who work with either hand or brain. After the next election labor will have a ma jority over any other single section of parliament. Premier Lloyd George has veered away from the workera His coalition is nothing but an aggregation of elements representing everything that labor opposes." - Its challenge Will be ac cepted and the struggle will go on until labor routs reaction. - - -We Invite the help ' of ; the middle classes. They should bear In mind what the 'workers have gonethrough to win their .i present voaltlon. and what they have contributed to the well-being and security of the commonwealth. If there are patriots at all. If there are demo crats at ali. the wage earners of this country are both. Their sympathy Is with the masses, with the great bulk of the people, and against the classes so far aa the classes take advantage of their too great share of power to prac tice injustice. Wa shall keep the! strike weapon. It belongs both to liberty and to the safety of those Improved condition which labor after a terrible ordeal has won. I do not believe in shouting strike all the time. No strike is just unless it is ab solutely necessary, Just now some men are circulating reports that the railway men will strike before Christmas. They are not in the least likely to do so. We have good hopes of settling with the gov ernment without trouble. We shall standardise the whole railway service. thus accomplishing for our men the greatest boon of their lives, while in suring to the railways the highest grade of service, they have ever had. It has been a colossal fight, but the achieve ment is worth all it cost radiating, as it must, good Influences in all directions. The long hours, sweated wages and the specter of uncertainty which have hith erto brighted the lives of the railway men are gone forever." school board, the Utter body has decided to make vaccination In the schools com pulsory.
