Jhe .Secretary, speaking before a ilele
galiou of women from the Women's In
ternational league for Peace anil Freedom
mude eleur that recognition of the soviet
is not near.
Heeeut changes in Russia's economic
laws, held by some to be adequate for
soviet recognition "are fur from ade
quate to create the condition which
would support industry and trade in
Hussia," the secretary declared.
Recent Story Confirmed
The secretary's statement of the
terms upon which the United States will
recognize Hussia, confirms the recent
exclusive United I'rcss dispatch outlining
tiiis government's position.
"I wish that 1 could believe that such
efforts (revolutionary) lnid heeuaban
doned," Hughes said.
"Last .November Zinaviev (Soviet
leader) said: 'The eternal in the Rus
sian revolution is the fact that it is the
beginning of the world revolution.' "
Further, concerning the main points
of the Americun position regarding Rus
sian recognition, Hughes said:
"Our own government, after the first
prmal man is one wno umKa . nm revolution, loaued about $1S7,000,000 to
b rather fortunate to get.a bus- Kussia , tbat wg' we're (h,
first to recognize the Kcreusky govern
ment. That .government did not possess
a policy of repudiation.
"Now what did the Soviet authorities
do? In their decree of January 21, 1U1S,
they made this simple statement:
" 'Unconditionally and without any
excepiious,. all. foreign loans are an
nulled.' ReDUdiatlon To Much. '
"What was loaned to Russia out of
liberty bond proceeds and the war loans
obtained by Russia before the revolu
tion to enable Russiu to continue the
war, were simply annulled. Now the
Uuited States is not a harsh creditor;
the United States is not seeking to press
debtors who cannot pay beyond their
means, but indulgence and propter ar
rnngements are one thing, repudiation

McTigue Did Not. Win
Title, Official Ruling
Paris. March 21.Contention of thr
Frenoh'boxmK federation that Mike Mc
Tigne did not win the lightheavyweight
championship from 'HaUling Si I-J, be
cause the bout wan not contested under
official championship conditions, received
a nartial substantiation from the In
ternational Boxing Federation today.
"Siki retains the light heavyweight
championship because the fight in which
he was defeated on points by Mike. Mr
Tigue did nt corform with the federa
tion rules,'' said M. itousseau, vice-president
of the federation.
It might be explained that the Inter
national Federation, consisting of mem
bers from all the European nations, as
sumed control and supervision of boxing
all over the world. Its American fon-ni-ction
is through the National Itoxing
association of the Tnlted Htat'.
Hon us '-an contends that McTigue did
not challenge officially, that the federa
tion did not license the bout or appoint
the referee; that Siki did not make the
weight and that the title was not at
stake.
To ettle the controversy the federa
tion probably will suggest thnt McTigue
and Siki meet again under official con
ditions in l'aris.

Salt Loke City Utah, March 21.
Fifty warriors of the l'iutu Indian tribe
have been caplund by posses of armed
men from Blanding, Mouilccllu and u r
rouuding ruuehes, according to repurts
brought by courier today from the scene
of Uie Indian uprising. They are held
under guard in lllandiug. Leaders of the
mulcoutiuts are aaid to be among the
prisoners and tlio situation in coining
ranidlv under control.
"Bishop's boy" was shot uud killed in
yesterday's picturesue buttle in the hills
and two other indinns were oauiy
wounded. 1 tie battle followed the i-s-cue
of "Bishop's boy and "Dutch's boy"
from Sheriff Oliver, at Blandiug. The
young braves had been convicted of rob
bing u isheep camp.
Indians Are Wounded.
According to the account of the battle.
posseN intercepted the Indians about 40
miles from Blamliug yesterday, and un
extended engagement took place, during
which "Bishop's boy1 was shot through
the head, two Indians wouudtd aud two
of the Indians' horses shut from under
their riders. No whites were killed or
wounded, tttough t .ere. were many nar
row escapes.
However, anxiety Ik felt for n posse nf
four riders, which became st purated
from the main organization mid which
has not returned to Blandiug. It is fear
ed that l hey have been massacred by
the l'iutes. The United States Marshal
here had prepared to go to the scene but
believed that the settlers will be able to
handle the situation.
The little town of Blandiug has ubot.t
l'tOO inhabitants .It is in the southeast
ern corner of the state, twenty-six miles
south of Monticcllo. The scene of the
trouble is in a wild, plcturcstpic country,
many niibs from any railroad. The In
dians took-stn tho canyons, vth which
they were very fumiliur, following the at
tack on Blamtijig. and the rescue of the
two bucks.

Senator Ilirum Johnson of California,
stormy petrol of national politics, will
be. a cimdidute for president in 1U-JS, ac
cording to K. .1. Adums, former chairman
of the state highway commission and
present secretary to Senator Hubert N.
Stuuficld, who returned lo lOogeue to
day lo speud the summer after an ab
sence of two yonra. Mr. ami .Mrs. Atlamt
have been iu Oregon since Sunday, vis
iting with friends iu Albany fot a few
days before cumins on here.
Johnson, always Htrong with the radi
cals," is winning the confidence of big
business men, buys Adams. They have
beeu looking for a mau popular euoiigh
with the people at large to draw a big
vote, but yet conservative enough lo iu
sure their safety, ln the fiery Califoruiau
i hey believe they have found one. Adams
dies not believe Johnson will uttempt to
run against Harding for the uominutiou
next year, lie auys Harding is certain
io nt. -t liia hat uiLo the ring for the
honor.
i Delegation Harmonious.
. That the Oregon delegation is working
in wonderful harmony is the news
brought to this sate by Stunfteld's sec
retary. He declares McNary, who does
not expect to make Oregon his ahidiiuv
place tor severul years yel, is a very
cupable floor man and also effective
in fonmuiteit rooms. Willi .McNary on
the floor, und Stuufield working on the
outHidc, much has been done for this
Mutu iu the way of beneficial legislation,
the Kugt-uenn infers. Both senators cy
nect to be out on this coast soon.
Adams also praises the congressmen
from here, lie declares iMcK Milium, oi
r:.steru Oregon, to be one of the strongest-
meu in the Inwer house.
Business Is Good.
Business conditions iu the east ore ex
cellent, says irilTturned Kugenean. In
dustry is hummiiiK east of (he Mississip
pi, aud he foreseen a wave of businesti
revival on west from that stream, which
now seems the dividing mark, within six
moid lis. Conditions are good for t he la
boring men for that reuson. There is
plenty of work for Ull, und congress has
up to now barred cheap Kuropeaji labor
fiom competing here and forcing wages
und living conditions down. '
Mr. AdnniH did not deny that President
Harding has lost some support by bis
attempt, to put through the ship subsidy
bill, by his stand against the bonus ami
against veterans' pensions, but be looks
f.r I his strenutli to come back within u
few months. . -; iJtl
The east, suys the ex-highway commis
sioner, does not know much of the west.
Back there it is believed that few people,
1'ol.ling in money from lumber or stock
ranches, Inhabit Oregon and Washington.
The old idea tlui, Indians still roam (he
streets of western towns still persists.
But he did find this: that the average in
telligent easterner Is extremely anxious
(o leurn of the M.icific slope, nnd will
liMeii for hours to one who has first hand
knowledge of it. "Their gold-plated brains
are always on llie lookout for places
where riches abound." he smiled, "and
hence they neck information of the
coast." Adams declares the easterners,
as a class, tire money-mad. They look for
the dollar in everything. Individually they
ore. human, but collectively they are cash
registers.
Booze It Talked of.
Another item of interest on tJie At
tain ic coast is booze. He believes that
the big cities, in the main, are the
s.rongbnldH of the light wine and beer
idea. Thero the booze question is ma
cussed often.
Adams declares the chief menace to
the American irovernment lies in the lar
ger centers nf population, Thero are the
money-mail big business men ami their
oppnfiites, the radicals. He finds the
small towns and the wide, open country
to he the RtronifJioiil of that sane element
that has made (be United Stales of today
and will keep It the same in the future.
Standards of honesty are not the same

New York, March 21. Fortunes rose
nnd fell in Wall street, the world's finan
cial capital, today as a former four-dollar
n week grocery clerk "put over his
big idea" anel totnll.v' routed its enemies
and those who would speculate with It
Clarence Saunders, of Atlanta and
Memphis, the former drummer and cre
ator of the Piggly Wiggly self-service
grocery stores, fought the interests
whose operations were detrimental to
expansion of his Rtores to n "standstill."
After he whipped them and they cried
"enough." Saunders today administered
a spanking, a sort of reminder not to do
it again. ;
Onoe Called Dream. ' ". '
Although suspended from the stock
exchange. "Piggly Wiggly Inc." once call
ed a "Southern dream" continued its
spectacular skyrocketing of yssterday by
advancing rapidly again today in trading
through broker offices. Starting at 75
offered, AO asked, at the opening.' and
while n dazed Wall street looked in, it
shot to 100 offered, 150 asked, at noon
land shortly after noon at 110.
With the ascension of the stock, Saun
ders, nn undistinguished looking south
emer who "fought to put over the 'bif
idea which he believed in" was almost
overnight made the most dominant figure
in tho grocery trade.
His rise In "power" when Wall street
recognized sufficiently to find about him
disclosed a story almost unparalleled In
the history of American "big business."
Saunders started his curccr in a small
Tennessee town as a grocer's clerk,
where he drew a salary of $4 a month.
Later ns he "grew up" to bo a drummer
of heaus nnd bread, he saw the grocery
trade as one full of possibilities -every"
one must e. .
Storot Wltiioat Clerks.
He figures that If Hie cost of selling
con Id ( ho reduced, prices could ho lowered
-and greater profits would result. He
perfected his plan, had It patented Under
tho mi inn of "Piggly Wiggly," and did a
then unheard of thing by opening a gro
cery store without clerks.
Customers marched through little turn
stiles, picked their goods off the shelves
and paid as they wentwmt another turn
stile.
In a few years "Piggly Wiggly" stores
were in nlmost every Americun city of 1
any size. Saunders hecftmo a millionaire
and he started his drive to dominate he
saw In "Piggly Wiggly" a clmnco for a
greater volume of business in popular
price automobiles and tho like,
Saunders present "conquest of Wall
Street" had its beginning in the recent
failure of several small "Piggly Wiggly"
concerns in eHisiern states, having no con
nect ion with Hie Saunders concern. The
biiukrupt firms merely used the Idea nnd
name of "Piggly Wiggly." Speculators in
Wall street, however, seized upon the
fiiilurcfl to sell Saunders ''Piggly -Wiggly"
stock short.
Street Is Astoundod.
Saunders put up with this condition
for a short time and then vowed to mske
the "specs" pay what ho termed "short
aightedncss." He entered the open msr
ket and bought, it Is reported, 50.000
shares driving the price from $-40 to (80.
