The charges In brief are that the
government needed the entire wool
clip. which amounted to about 100
100000 pounds; that the war indus
tries board had much business on
hand and accordingly created a de-
partment OF the board. known as the
wool division, inviting in all the big
wool dealers 10 advise the war indus

the wool buyers and big dealers
we're made government agents and

ment would pay; that the wool was
bought from the farmers In the

proximately 65 to 67 cents a pound,
and sold 20 the government as
Secured wool" at prices ranging
from $3.50 TO si.s5 a pound; that
not single pound OF wool sold In
that way was actually secured by the
buyers or dealers. and that this plan

make their huge profits.

$4,000 FARM LOANS
IN JOSEPHINE COUNTY

The appraiser for the federal land
bank has just finished making ex.
aminations for the Williams and Jo-
sephine national farm loan associa-
tions. Farmers In these sections
had $4,000 worth OF applications
filed with Sam II. Baker. secretary
treasurer. They only have to pay
5ls per cent interest on these loans.
The federal farm loan is the most
helpful financial legislation congress
has ever passed for the benefit OF
the farmer. The farmers pay / per
cent per year on the principal. or a
total OF $65 per $1,000 for both in
terest and principal payment and at
the end Of s34h years their loan is
all paid of. II they do not want it
to run that long they can pay It all
on at the end OF five years and only
pay 5h per cent for what time II
has run.
Any farmer can take a small part
OF his loan and buy good stock or
clear off little more land and the
increased returns from his farm will
pay of the whole loan.

RUSSIAN REDS ARE
STIRRING LISBON
Strikes and Fires Fayorite Weapons
OF Discontented-Social Reyolu-
tion Paralyzes Industry

Lisbon, June 21.-Portugal, espe-
cially Lisbon, Is in the throes Of an
incipient social revolution" Since
the first OF May, when the working
classes made strong and peaceful
demonstration OF their force by an
immense procession through the
streets in front Of the ministries,
various threatening events have oc-
Cured.
Unsatisfied with the eight-hour
day granted by the government,
workers "downed tools" and two big
fires have destroyed two OF the finest
old edifices in Lisbon.
Many arrests were made OF per-
sons suspected of being the authors
OF this act OF sabotage. The incen-
diaries have not yet been discovered,
and the government is continuing its
investigations and making many ar
rests. The damage is enormous; a
great number of money orders were
burned.
On the following day, the prison
ers OF the ancient and historical
Limceiro prison revolted. They
smashed furniture and doors with
parts of their iron bedstands and af-
ter setting the prison afire with
their mattresses they rushed out
shouting "vivas" for the social rev.
olution. The old building, which
had been a royal palace. built in the
18th century. was soon in flames
and part OF II was burned. Some of
Its 7SO inmates escaped, but troops
were Immediately detailed to cor
don the neighboring streets and hun
dreds we're caught and removed TO
the Monsanto fort and other prisons.
Bolshevik propaganda has been
widely spread in the working classes
and some Of the arrested men turned
out to be Russian bolsheviki.
The strikes have paralyzed bus
mess. No electric crews have been
running since May 1 and all the mu-
n'cipal workmen are on strike, so
that street cleaning, burying the
dead. and all other municipal work
Is being done by soldiers and VOL
unteers.

Such Action Would Hurt Little
Brown Men, But They Train with
Carranza and Are Menace

Washington, June 21.-Cancelia-
tion OF the so-called gentlemens
agreement with Japan and prohibi-
tion OF all immigration from that
country, was urged before the house
immigration committee by Senator
Phelan. democrat. Of California, who
declared that Japanese rapidly were
making silent conquest Of the
western hemisphere. Americas next
war, he said, would be "on the Pa
cifie and not on the Atlantic"
The Huns OF the east have come"
Senator Phelan declared. Already
they have spread over California and
are stripping the state OF its Ameri-
canism. They have invaded South
America and have obtained a firm
foothold in Mexico. where they are
protected and are a part of the Car
rama machine. Some day the Mex
lean and Japanese problem will come
to smite us with united force"
The Japanese are not to be COM
promised with" he asserted. "They
must be eliminated entirely like
swarm of locusts, which they alone
equal in economic destructiveness.
Not per cent should be allowed to
come; not Y per cent, not even Y
per cent. Legislation should be en-
acted to bar them entirely. This
might hurt Japan's feelings, but
America comes first.
The sore spot Of the world is in
the orient. It is the place which we
must watch. zealously and unceas-
ingly."
Senator Phelan urged also legisla-
ton to prohibit the Japanese from
owning or leasing land in this coun-
try, and to make picture bride"
marriages Illegal. The greatest dan
ger from the japanese, the senator
said, was caused by their innate
and deep-rooted desire to become
landowners"
The Japanese refuse to work for
anyone else when 1t can be avoided"
he declared. when. they acquire a
piece of land they work IS to 20
hours day. For that reason Ameri-
cans are being driven out of the
state"
Landowners of California are apa-
thetic, Senator Phelan said, because
they are able to obtain from the
Japanese far more for their land
than they could make by leasing or
selling itato the Americans or by
working II themselves.
The American laborers are not so
fortunate, however," he said. "They
are deprived of their means OF liveh-
hood. Can you wonder many have

the I. w. w. and the radicals?"
Labor unions of the west coast are
beginning to realize ''the seriousness
IL the question" the senator added,
"and to make determined efforts to
have all Japanese excluded"
Senator Phelan said he had aided
IN obtaining the state departments
sapproval to the proposed sale by
Mexico of 100000 acres OF land near
the American border to Japanese
corporation for colonization pur-
poses.
"But who knows when other and

made" he said. 1--WE mast he on
