MEAT PRICES
PACKERS SAY
Quotations on Beef in Particular
' .' Expected to Hit Toboggan,
but Pork Will Not Be Af
fected; Supply Is Adequate.
a Chicago, April 9. U. P.)- Ade
quate meat supply with steady .or
declining prices in the next six
; months, , were predicted today by
packing house officials.
Beef, .prices' were expected to fall,
while pork will remain at the present
level, experts believe.
Frank W. Waddcll. vice president of
Armour & Co., said the. hogr "crop" this
season will be -above that of last year.
'"Prices on pork will be no better from
the farmers . standpoint this - spring,"
Waddell predicted.
"America Is not exporting pork. For
eign nations want it, but they have no
one to buy. '
"I do not anticipate an improvement
1n the Amertcan pork market until the
United States and Germany have con
cluded the peace treaty and until the
reparations question between the allies
and Berlin has been settled."
' Packing house officials are not ap
prehensive over "farmers strikes" to cut
down production.
"With only the domestic market to
provide for, the beef market Is favored
with an excellent supply," V. H. Mun
necke. a beef expert at the yards, said.
Munnecke referred to reports from the
West as showing calf production normal.

New York. April 9. (I. N, S.) -Thanks
to the presence in this coun
try of Albert Einstein. I have just
had an opportunity, in the course
of a social conversation with him, "to
obtain somewhat clearer-Ideas con
cerning .the most puzzling points in
the application of "his great theory
- of relativity to the fundamental laws
of modern science.
There are . three chief points of the
Einstein theory which stand out con
spicuously and to the average reader
seerffs to be rather- stumbling blocks
" than aids to comprehension and these I

KO ABSOLUTE MOTI05 V
First, that absolute motion has no
existence bo far as we are .concerned.
but that all motion of every kind that
we see. or of which we perceive the ef

Ochbco Dam
Is Opened on
Thirsty Land
, The giant Irrigation dam on the
Ochoco project, near Prineville, went
Into operation Friday when the first
flood of water was sent swirling
through the spillway. It was a day
of holiday and rejoicing, of speech
making and feasting in Prineville.
More than 1,000 people of the irriga
tion district Joined the citizens of
Prineville in celebrating the event.
The1 dam and attendant canals have
been constructed since 1917 and at a cost
of $1.440.514.u4. . The system will be
maintained at a cost of $1.10 an acre.
The project was paid rof by a district
bond issue of 11.050,000, and $100,000 de
rived through direct assessment of the
acreage served. Some 21.987 acres will
be under irrigation, of which 19,520 are
already served. Crop valuation in the
district for 1920 amounted to $33 an acre.
The vast acreage Is divided into tracts
of 40 and 80 acres in extent, which are
being rapidly taken up. The Ochoco
Land company is handling the develop
ment of settling. Some 1000 people pop
ulate the district, including some 20 fam
ilies who have taken land since Novem
ber 1, last. Artesian wells can be struck
almost at any point and at depths as
low as 265 feet on the lower levels. W.
F. Brown, E'ortland representative of the
land company, left today for Prineville
to Inspect tlw operation of the dam.

Judge Lindsey Case
Is Postponed Again
Denver. April 9. (L N. a) The
remitter proceedings in the case of Judge
Ben B. Lindsey, Denver juvenile court
judge, on charges of contempt of court
were postponed today until next Satur
day. This is the third postponement of
the case in as many weeks.
In other words, we have no fixed back
ground to which all motions alike can be
referred.; Until recently It was "thought
that by refined observation it should be
possible to detect the effect of the earth's
motion through the ether of space. The
failure of the most elaborate attempts to
detect such motion was the beginning of
Einstein's discovery of the principle of
the relativity of motion. This, put in a
sentence,; means that no uniform motion
relative to the ether can be detected.
DAILY PROOFS SEEN
We are S surrounded every day by
proofs of relativity that we ordinarily
da not notice. When a railway train
standing; beside our own in a station
starts to move sometimes we can
scarcely persuade ourselves that it Is not
our own train that Is In motion. This
Is a perfect example of what is meant
by relativity of motion." It becomes more
.complicated, but not less clear, when we
apply it to the motion of the earth
around the sun. combined with the mo
tion of the sun together with alt its
planets through space., and the probable
motion of the entire svjitem of the stars.

Washington. April 9. -Charles

There J is no longer any question

INTEREST KEEN IN
PIGEON PLANE RACE
Speculation Is high among: the
members of the;' navy and marine
corps- recruiting parties as to what
the carrier pigeons will do in the
race between the De Haviland army
plane from Portland to San Fran
cisco Monday. The race has been
arranged by The Journal and the
San Francisco . Bulletin cooperating
with the army, navynd marines.
Books of all sorts are being "cracked"
to find i records of pigeon flights and
what pigeons are capable of.
STBOSO FOB BIRDS
Chief Gunner's Mate Sauers of the
navy office, who in his boyhood days
was a pigeon fancier, claims that the
plane has no chance against the birds.
He points out that during the war birds
made flights of 500 miles and averaged
between 80 and 100 miles an hour.
One feature against the, pigeons is that
they have been cooped up away from
their home for , several days and that
tends to lessen their sense of direction.
Ordinary homing pigeons are affected
this way, but it remains to be seen
whether the military training is more
thorough.
The six pigeons, three from the navy
and three from the marine corps, are
now in custody of Captain E. B. Ham
mond, commanding the marine recruiting
office. ; They have been let out in a
screened yard at his home, 1115 Bybee
avenue for exercise.
RACE STARTS MONDAY
Monday morning Governor Olcott will
write messages to the governor of Cali
fornia and release the birds at the same
time the airplane piloted by Major H. H.
Arnold, chief of aviation of the Western
division of the army., takes, off from
Bloomfield field.
The speed of the birds, authorities say,
averages about 90 miles an hour. In the
races held in Belgium before the war
the prize winners made 270 miles in 3
hours and 15 minutes, making an aver
age of a trifle . better than 89 miles an
hour. The American blue 'ribbon races
are flown at the distances of from 100
to 600 miles.
The speed of a De Haviland plane Is
rated at 120 miles an hour. This is
top speed and varies with the wind. On
the flight made by the governor of
Oregon from the Canadian line to San
Francisco, the average velocity was 75
miles an hour. This taken into con
sideration with the fact that birds have
been , known to fly 600 miles at an
average of 80 miles and can choose more
direct .routes that are free from atmos
pheric J disturbances makes the race
about an even break.
Major Arnold will spend Saturday and
Sunday with the governor at Salem and
win return to Portland for the flight.
The governor expects to come up Sun
day evening. -'.-

By Robert J. Bender
I'nited News Staff Correspondent
Washington, April 9. President
Harding, in his message to congress
next Tuesday, final draft of which

held Up, pending adjustment of difficul
ties the administration is now seeking to
make in the .allied execution of the Ver
sailles treaty.

Harding is understood to recommend are
the following:
L Complete revision of the tax law
with specific advice . to eliminate the ex

2. Enactment of ah emergency tariff,
to take care of vital needs of the farm
ers and certain industries pending the
enactment of a permanent tariff, which
shall be based on economic rather than
political premises.
3. Recommendations for a prompt re
port by the congressional committee in
vestigating ways and -means of depart
mental reorganization designed to reduce
administrative expenses.
BUDGET IS SUPPORTED '
4. Suggestions for a definite system

by government aid, shall be maintained
by the states.
5. Passage of a budget law.
6. Favorable action on the Colombian
treaty, which would give Colombia $25,
000.000 as a result of this government's
taking the Panama Canal sone.
.7 An attitude of cooperation with
Mexico on the basis of Mexican assur
ances of f protection for the hves and
property of .Americans.; ' v
. Measvres for estaVUshinrt Jraetly
the status Of foreign obligations to this
government, both as regards jpajiment
of interest and payment oi principal.
9. A general pol fey of volitional ar
bitration in labor disputes with the rec
ognition of the right of labor to organize

13. Consolidation of ex-service men'?
relief organizations under one head.
HELP FOR FARMER WASTED
14. An agricultural policy embracing
wide representation for the farmer in
governmental affairs, reduction of ab
normal price fluctuations, a liberal ad
ministration of the farm loan act which
would tend to reduce farm tenancy and
cooperative associations for buying and
selling farm products.
15. Extension of the merit system of
appointment and promotion in the fed
eral civil service.
16U General policy of cooperation as
opposed to antagonism-, in the govern
ment's relation to business.
17. Revision of the shipping board act

message.

SAYS BRITAIN CAN
By Harold IX Jacobs
Scarborough, NJ Y., April 9
). cu.-
P.) "Great Britain has 'muddled
through' grave crises before; the
chances are . she will 'muddle
through again the underlying com
mon sense of the British people
should win."
This was the statement today of Frank
A. Vanderlip, noted economist, when
asked by the United Press for his views
on the industrial situation in England,
growing out of the miners strike. He
has made a special study of British eco
nomic conditions and has personally con
ferred with ail of the leaders on both
sides of the present trouble.
"There is one extremely serious phase
to consider," he continued, "and that is
the effect the industrial war m Great
Britain will have on other European
countries.
"Isn't it conceivable that Germany wili
be greatly encouraged in her attitude ot
defiance , toward the allies and that
France will be correspondingly discour
aged ? f -
"Then, too, the Bolshevik! may be em
boldened to the extent of casting aside
all the reported recent reforms in Rus
sia. The effect on the smaller European
nations should be quite marked."
Vanderlip was asked if he believed
there would be any serious effect upon
the United States. .
"Compared: with European countries,
there should be very little." he replied.
"At first, of course,; there will be a stim
ulation of our coal exports, but the fall
ing away of British commerce will do us
no good in the long run. even should we
temporarily acquire a large share of it.
What we want is solvent, not insolvent,
foreign customers."

Strike Called
Decisive War
Of 2 Classes
, By diaries M. McCann
London, April 9.r-(U. P.) "The
approaching strike is the opening of
a general decisive war between capi

labor leader in j parliament, declared
in an interview with the United.
Press today. ' . '
Macdonald Added that ;
If .the general strike is not averted,
British industry will be paralyzed with
in a week. - . ,
There may be some "head breaking",
but it will not be the result of a "de
liberate planned bolshevism." ;.
The workers now thoroughly distrust
the government, believing "It is an un
witting tool of capital. 1 j
HATE AS 5ETEK BEFORE ;
The miners "hate capital now as never
before."- . . .. . v
"The general strike Is not merely a
walkout by miners, railway men and
transport workers, but a showdown in
the division -of interests between capital
and labor generally," Macdonald aald. -
"Capital wants to force labor to ac
cept anything it wants to offer. The
government is behind the owners but
is only partly conscious of the mischief
it is doing; . ' -j: -
'The roinera. determined to have a
living wage, are forced to fight against
the owners' contemplated reduction. The
other workers realize their fight Is com
ing. All orgrjtized labor realizes this
is their fight and accepts It as such.
If the general strike is not halted, all
British industry will be at a standstill
within a week. ."
IlEGAHDED AS 6E5ESAL WAR
. "The present situation is regarded as
a general war opened by capital for the
subjection of labor, for which the own
ers and the government have been pre
paring for months The miners were
not prepared. . . t ij
"Capital selected I the point of attack,
planned not only to overwhelm the 'regi
ment' of miners, but to smash the .en
tire army of labor. British workmen,
like soldiers in the field - awaiting an
attack under fire, are consequently say
