the Senate This Week
Republican A, p. Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-Inclusion
in the permanent railroad legislation
Of a provision to penalize strikes of
late today by the senate interstate
IA to 1.
The committee did not enter into the
details of the anti-strike legislation at
its meeting today. the vote being
merely on the question of adoting the
principle of penalizing railroad en-
ployes for striking. Senator Stanley,
democrat of Kentucky, cast the only
opposing vote, declaring he did not be-
lieve anti-strike provisions could be
enforced.
The committee vote was regarded as
making certain inclusion in the final
railroad bill of an anti-s strike clause
somewhat similar to the clause of the
Cummins bills proposing fines and i'm
prisonment for concerted action of en-
ployes interfering with interstate COM
merce. The phraseology of the anti
strike clause is expected to be agreed
on late this week.
Other steps toward reporting on the

taken today by the committee in de-
termining distribution of excess rail-
road earnings.
In accordance with a recent vote in
favor of a provision directing the in
terstate commerce commission to fiS
rates sufficient to insure railroads a
return of 515 per cent upon the value
of their property as determined by the
commission, plus one-half of one per
cent for maintenance, the committee
today voted on disposition of earnings
exceeding this six per cent return.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14-Belgian
royalty entered San Francisco today
and the city took them to it's heart with
true western hospitality. They were
greeted with the ceremony due reign
ing monarch, but beneath the for
malities they must have felt the un-
grudging admiration bestowed upon
heroic soldier and his devoted queen.
The guns of the New Mexico, flag
ship of the Pacific fleet, doomed a
deep throated salute as they crossed
the bay from Oakland and King AL
bert dined tonight upon the super
deadnaught which flies Vice-Admiral
Rodman's four starred flag.
The king entered here upon the sec
ond phase of his tour of the United
States. He made the most earnest plea
he has voiced thus far for his stricken
country.
Her determination to live causes her
TO strain every effort" he said. "She
asks the sympathy and the help OF
those powerful friends who already
have aided her in her misfortune"
With simple dignity his majesty re-
spoaded to the welcome given him by
Governor Stephens, Mayor Rolph
and Herbert Hoover, devoted friend Of
the hosts of hungry refugees whose
gratitude sounds for him a daily
benediction.

splendid rotunda OF the municipal
buildings, they were made honorary
citizens OF San Francisco. His majesty
expressed his appreciation and his
sweet-faced consort was showered with
flowers grown under the far western
sun. Her triumph was no less than
that of her husband.
II was a luncheon in honor Of the
king and his aides at the Palace hotel
that his majesty made his most impor-
tant speech of the day.
More than a thousand men and wo-
men stood and cheered him frantically
as he rose to respond to the addresses
OF welcome. In the uniform OF a lieu
tenant general. his breast bare of
decorations, his face was grave as he
looked out over the faces before him
and paid heartfelt tribute to the Cali
fornians who had done so much to aid
his people. But first of all, in his
simple English, he voiced his thanks
TO Hoover, only to be halted by ap-
plause.
When he had finished he was pre-
sented, in behalf Of the five CONNER
cial organizations with a silver fruit
and flower dish together with honorary
membership in each of the organiza
tions.

JUAN FERNANDEZ
Always of Absorbing Interest Defoes Magnificent Story
Of Robinson Crusoe and His Lonesome Island
Selected

kirk lived op the island for four
years, aadin 1712 there appeared
book entitled Cruising Voyage
Round the World" which was
written by Capt. Wordes Rogers,
who had rescued Selkirk from the
island. Part of the tribulations
and adventures of Selkirk we're
told in that story, and it was sup
posed that it was this hint which
stirred Defoe's imagination and led
to the writing of Robinson Crusoe.
Captain Rogers book, in which
the adventures of Selkirk were
told, was also the inspiration, or
rather the text, of Cowper's poem,
which is generally called "Soli-
tude," but which the poet, in what
was fashion in the eighteenth CEN
tury, called Verses Supposed to
Be Written by Alexander Selkirk
During His Solitary Abode in the
Island of Juan Fernandez
A literary man who took up the
connection between Selkirk's ad-
ventures and Dcfoe's story of Rob-
inson Crusoe has written this:
There was more than enough
of nudge for Defoe, for Cowper,
for scores of others. But Defoe
never got his hero, Robinson Cru
soc, round the Horn or into the
Pacific at all; he started him from
England. shipwrecked him in At
rica, sent him as planter to the
Brazils'-as be always pluralizes
the name-and finally blew him
north, shipwrecked again on an
island which Defoe carefully la
beled on the title page of the first
edition as being at the mouth of
the mighty Orinoco.' a continent
and parts of two oceans removed
from Juan Fernandez
The Island of Tabago in the
Caribbean archipelago was men,
toned by one writer as the island
of Crusoe. but Tabago, north of
the Trinidad, is too far from the
mouth of the Orinoco to agree
with what Crusoe says of the loca-
tion of his island. Louis Rhead,
in a preface to one edition of Rob-
inson Crusoe. wrote: "A map has
been prepared to show the real
location, which is at the mouth of
the Orinoco, thirty miles north
west of Trinidad, an island lying
just in the Caribbean archipelago.
The island is now known as
Tabago."
A good many distinguished
writer's have mistaken the Island
of Juan Fernandez for the island
of Robinson Crusoe, and among
them was R. H. Dana, Jr., who,
in his Two Years Before the
Mast" wrote that he saw the
Island of Juan Fernandez rising
like deep blue cloud out of the
sea" when his brig, the Pilgrim,
was seventy miles away. After
the briggs stop at the island Mr..
Dana wrote: Il gave it a parting
look and bid farewell to the most
romantic spot of earth my eyes
had ever seen because of the asso-
Citations which every one has con-
nected with it in their childhood
from reading Robinson Crusoe."
