Sicily, thence north through the entire
length Of Italy. Most Of the time
viii be spent in districts not usually
visited by tourists meeting with the
common people in a number of towns
and cities by appointment so as to Sc
cure the largest amount of informa-
tion possible to be used in aiding to
better their condition in our home land
when they come TO us. A number
of receptions are being planned by

liberal use will be made of the camera
enroute and as attorney for the de-
fense" Mr.. Cleland expects to establish
strong case that the foreigner has
the making of a good and true citi-
zen of America and is worthy of united
interest in helping him to learn the
language and American ways. In case
the plan succeeds this summer, as it
is expected to do. it is probable that
the trip abroad to visit other European

You can take it from me that the
fight will never be pulled of in Utah.
The site which has been agreed upon is
at Oeeanview, short distance south of

DEMOCRACY OF CHARITY
is TOPIC OF SPEAKER
Joseph Scott Addresses Knights of
Columbus at Their Club House
on Figueroa Street

Before a large number of knights or
Columbus Joseph Scott, past state
deputy of that order. delivered an ad-
dress last evening at the Columbus
club house, Twenty second and Fig
ueroa streets. 1.-The Democracy of
Charity was his topic. Mr.. Scotts
address took up the principle of all
men being created equal. He wildly
portrayed the tendency of the Ameri-
can people to neglect this principle
and to forget the United States is a
republic.
''Charity should follow the same
principle upon which the Declaration
of independence was based,' declared
Mr.. Scott. "I know of some New York
residents who not long ago gave a
dinner to a poodle dog in the Waldorf
Astoria. While I do not believe that
this is a fair example Of the ways of
the rich, there is most lamentable
tendency for the well-to-do to neglect
the poor.
ITO preserve the principle upon
which our government is based one
man should be regarded in the same
light as another, for we all are created
equal"

GERMANY SENDS
Her ULTlMATUM
REPLIES TO INQUIRY ON TAR
lFF BY u. S.
MANY AMERICAN DESIRES ARE
REFUSED
Fatherland Prepared for Trade Hos
tlities Should Washington In-
sist on Further Concessions
Than Are Granted
ASSOCIATED Pressj

BERLIN, Jan. 18-The German gov
ernment today cabled to washington
reply to memorandum recently re-
celVed from the United States in rela-
ton to tariff on shipments between
the two countries. While it does not
accept the American wishes in va
rious respects and especially concern
ing the importation of meat, the Ger
man response is sent in the hope it
Will be satisfactory is all that the
German government can do.
The reply was dispatched with q
feeling of gravity because of the feel
ing that Germany can do more and
must be prepared for trade hostilities
should the United States insist on
more than Germany accords to other
countries.
Chancellor Won Behmann- -Hollweg
and his associates, the imperial min
listers, appear convinced the combined
conservative center and national lib
eral parties of the reichstag would
block the way to any departure from
the present laws covering the importa-
ton of meats.
The government has received the
opinions of the leaders of the parties
and moreover has gathered widely the
views of manufacturing interests.
Even were the government disposed
to accept the American contentious in
their entirety, there does not appear
to be the least possibility that the
reichstag would pass the legislation
essential for the modification of the
German law.
1t is cited at this time that in pro-
mitigating the American-German tariff
agreement in 1907 President Roosevelt
stated that Germany was giving to the
United States more than she was re-
ceiving.
1t is further pointed out that now
the American tariff revision having
been made as is constantly asserted
in all quarters, with the design of
limiting German trade with the United
States and q request being made that
Germany shall make further impossible
concessions, the general temper of the
country, as indicated by the chambers
of commerce, the reichstag, financial
journals and the government at special
Inquiries is steadfast in what is con-
sidered a sound position-namely: To
take whatever comes.
