Socialists here were doing their utmost today to or ganize a European general strike as a means of preventing war. It was acknowledged that the anti militarists were taken by surprise iu Austria, and that probably not much could be accomplished there or in Ser via at present. , Their emissaries were busy, however, in Germany, France, Italy, Kussia and England, and leaders of the movement i expressed themselves as hopeful that I they would succeed in rendering a wide-1 spread conflict impossible, after which j they said they would direet their efforts j toward the terminating the Austro-Bcr-j vian struggle. In Italy, they boasted, messages from j Italian cities indicated with some ap pearance of accuracj', that the govern ment would be overthrown if it joined Germany and Austria in the field. I Anti-War Demonstrations. j Formidable anti-war demonstrations occurred last night also in Paris and othe. French cities, and in the French chamber of deputies strong declarations were made by socialist members against Gallic interference in the situation. At the same time Kussia was vehemently urged not to intervene in Servia's be half on the ground that, if it did so, conditions generally would be rendered infinitely worse and Servla would not benefit. It was owned that Germany seemed to be war-mad. Still, the hope was expressed that much would be accom plished in the next few days, and it was pointed out that mere nau aireaay ueeu some anti-military sentiment developed. In EusBia. it was stated, efforts were being made for a renewal of last week 's general strike, which collapsed when the strikers saw their race-brothers in Servia about to be attacked by the AustrianB.

China's division into two separate countries was declar ed inevitable hero today by mea in close touch with political conditions. That there is about to be a success ful revolution in the provinces south of the Yangtso, they declared, was a certainty. It was by the uprising in these provinces that the Manchus were overthrown and their people are no bet ter satisfied, it was asserted, with Pres ident Yuan Shi Kai's rule than they were with the fallen imperial government's. The revolutionary movemout was said to be rjractically unanimous, and even though Yuan might win a border battle or two, should he attempt to prevent southern China's secession from the north, it was pointed out that it would be hopeless for him to undortake the conquest of a territory half the siie of the United States, with a population approaching 200,000,000, of vast wealth and resources and with a large army, trained by the revolt against the Man chus to a very fair state of efficiency. Great Era of Development. It was agreed, on the other hand, that the north showed no such disposition for popular government as the south, and it was admitted that it would be as imnossible for tho south to beat the north as for the north to hold the south against its will. There was practically such a division as the one suggested, it was pointed .A I) (C 'hs.''''

The socialist plan was completely to j tie up industry, especially the railroads, : to that the movement of troops would i be impossible, and even those who wanted to fight would be unable to do so. Vigorous representations were being made, through the distribution of liter ature and the personal efforts of social ist leaders, to the workers of all coun tries likely to be involved in a conflict that whoever else might profit from a great international struggle, they tnem selves would have to pay for it with their lives and labor, and that they could gain no possible advantage from it. "A" few years ago women were al- j out, for a short time preceding the Man.

The navies of the various powers in volved compare approximately, some al lowed to walk", said Dr. Bertha Stewart yesterday afternoon before an assembly of women listeners at Kimball Hall, "but the woman of to day is hobbled so that she can hardly step." Dr. Stewart who is a graduate physician and the director of physicial education of the University ot Oregon for the last 5 years is a well-known lecturer in the extension course field, and was brought to Salem by the Mothers' class of the Methodist church. Taking 'Eugenics, How to Teach It to the Child" as her snbject, Dr. Stewart who has made a special study of the American child m connection with the recent eugenics movement, discussed the subject ably and to the point. Scoring the press for repulsive publicity Dr. Stewart, gently and beau tifully instilled thoughts which directed mothers to impart ethical knowledge strongly and powerfully to the child through intelligence and pure Handed ness. Dr. Stewart told a story explaining in detail how knowledge along the line of eugenics should be imparted to the children. She took flowers as her ex amples, personifying them. She called chu's overthrow, the imperial' govern ment, with Yuan Shi Kal as its premier, remaining' in control of the northern provinces at renin, and tne soutnern republic acknowledging Provisional President Sun Yat Sen's regime at Nankin. The southern leaders propose a re public, with land held on something like a single tax basis and the state in control of most great utilities. They plan an era of railroad building, of the establishment of schools and as rapid a development as possible by Chinese, not by foreigners of the country s latent resources, It was predicted that President Yuan would proclaim himself emperor, and considered likely that he would rule as such, in the north, in the not distant future.

Washington, July 29. The department of agriculture an nounced today that the Europ ean war scare had enhanced Am erican grain prices 169,000,000 yesterday. The wheat crop was given as 930,000,000 bushels; corn, 2,916,000,000, and oats, 1,197, 000,000 bushels. , AH Europe was arming tonight. The war outlook was most threaten ing. The kaiser toiled hard all day to persuade the czar from interfering be tween Austria and Servia, Russia, however, continued to mobil ize troops on the German and Austrian frontiers. Late in the day it was said on high authority in Berlin that Germany would mobilize in 24 hours unless Russia ceased military activities. This was looked on as much in the nature of an ultimatum to the czar. Still later the kaiser called his ad visers Into conference with him and it was generally thought the czar had re jected his overtures or that the kaiser had been told he was about to do so. German troops were already on the move toward the Russian frontier. Confirmation was receivd of reports that Austrians had bombarded a Serv ian, position some accounts were that it was Belgrade Samlln bridge across the Save had been destroyed. Servian and Montenegrin troops were gathering in the Sanjakofno district for a desperate resistance of the Aus trian advance. The men were rallying to the Servian colors, regardless of age or youth and many women were joining them to help in the fighting. Food prices jumped to such a point in Austria that the government fixed a maximum to be observed on pain of imprisonment. The Vienna government was im prisoning Servians of military age within its jurisdiction. Reports were current of explosions in Warsaw and an anti-Russian rising of Poles, but tills was denied and the ex plosions were attribute,: to lightning. France was concentrating troops on the German frontier and It was re ported Germany meant to expel all French from Alsace-Lorraine. Belgium was mobilizing to preserve its neutrality. Socialists were trying to paralyze war preparation by organizing a .Europe-wide general strike. A fleet of British warships sailed for an unknown destination. . In America alone were there unlimit ed market trading in securities. The New York marltet closed strong. ' Bourses and exchanges in Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfort, Amsterdam, St. Petersburg, Liverpool, Montreal and Toronto were suspended. The London market was panicky, and consols made the low record of 69 3-4. Heavy sold shipments from the United States to Europe continued, but caused no anxiety. The Chicago grain market was some what higher than Tuesday. The Washington agricultural depart ment estimated that American grain had appreciated $169,000,000 as a re sult of the war scare. A heavy advance in meat prices was predicted if war spread. Russia Must Stop Mobilizing Troops or Germany Will Take a Hand in It By Karl H. Von Wlegaud. Berlin, July 29. The kaiser was be lieved here today to have instructed the Austrian government, with which he has enormous influence, to dolay invad ing Sorvia until he gives the word. It was at his instance that war dem onstrations were forbidden in Germany, and todny it was known that he was making desperate efforts to persuade the czar to remain neutral. Officialdom expected a decision with, in 24 hours. They were pessimistic. Frankfort-on tho Mnin, Germany, July 29. "The kaiser's efforts to localize the war between Austria and Servia have been nulified by extensive Russian military movements." This was the substance or a Benin dispatch printed here today in an ex tra edition of the Frankfort Gazette. As the government has frequently, used the Gazette to issue semi-official news, it was believed here that the dispatch was inspired. The same dispatch also said that con ditions were rapidly growing worse. Think Situation Improved. London, July 29. Late editions of London newspapers today were more optimistic regarding the war situation. The foreign office, it was stated, thinks the kaiser's personal negotia tions with the czar have greatly im proved the situation. tfpecinl mspatcnes irom si. reiers burg also were of a more hopeful tone. Berlin, July 29 Unless Russia ceases its military activities a German army mobilization order will be issued at the end of 24 hours, a high official told the United Press here tonight. This stand was regarded virtually as an ultimatum, fixing a time limit within which the czar was required to reply. Break Is Imminent Berlin, July 29. It was learned from the highest sources here tonight that a break between Germany and Kussia was impending. The impression was genoral that negotiations between the kaiser and the uznr for localizing the Austro-Servian war hail failed. Officialdom was extremely -pessimistic.
