Pressburg, Hungary. May 1S.--The
inhabitants of the Ghetto section OF
this city, which was entirely destroyed
by fire yesterday. spent the day in
trying to recover some OF their per-
sonal belongings from the ruins. That
portion of the city is tonight de-
spairing picture OF burned and charred
ruins and more than 5000 persons are
homeless.
The strict observance of their re-
ligion by the orthodox Jews was re-
sponsible for the complete ruin
wrought In the district.
The inhabitants calmly stood by and
watched their homes and places of
business burn and refused even to at
tempt to rescue the women and chill
dren because il was the Jewish Sab
bath. Rabbi finally granted his
people dispensation sufficient TO al

up with a high priced land bargain
he faces a hard situation--a situation
to try his mettle.
On the Umatilla project the high
prices at which land was sold by
private companies not only worked a
hardship on the settler, but often on
the land sellers themselves. Many
purchasers were unable to meet the
payments and the land reverted back
to the former owners. Because OF
the high prices charged both the
Northern Pacific and the Maxwell
company have been long delayed in
disposing of their land and in getting
their money from sales. Both con-
Germs have reduced prices in order to
relieve the situation.
Owners of land under the West
Umatilla project may well profit by
the mistakes made in earlier recla-
nation days. If they do they will sell
