BURLEsON HANDS
WIRES TO OWNERS
ALL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH
LINES NOW IN HANDS OF
FORMER OWNERS.
MAINTAIN PRESENT RATES
Postmaster General Tells People He
Is Handing Wires Back Upon
Presidents Orders-Orders
High Rates Continued.

Washington.-Teleg and tele
phone companies whose lines hav'
been controlled and operated by th+
government since last August were or
dered to resume Immediately opera
tons for their own account by Post
master General Burleson. The postof
flee department, however, under term;
of Mr.. Burlesons order. retains 6
measure of control of the services
pending final legislative action BY
congress.
Regulations prohibiting discrimiHa
ton against wire employees because OF
union affiliations, maintaining exist
ing rates and charges and instructing
companies to keep special accounts
to facilitate cost settlement between
themselves and the government are re
tanned in effect under the order issued
by the postmaster general.
Mr.. Burleson accompanied the order
with a statement giving the reasons
which impelled him to take action. He
asserted that the president having
recommended the return of the prop
critics, the senate interstate commerce
committee having indicated that i'm
mediate return was advisable and the
house committee having, through hear
ings. manifested a desire for actor
toward that end, he felt it his duty to
return operative control 10 the various
private owners.

MEXICO TO PROTECT CAPITAL
Mexican Ambassador Says His Gov
eminent Will Protect
Property.

Washington.-Mexi will protect al
foreign investments in that country
and, if other countries are only pa
tient, Mexico will pay all her debts
DR.. Juan B. Rojo, counsellor and
charge de'affaires ad interim of the
Mexican embassy, told the Pan-Amer
lean Commercial Congress. His words
az assure you all foreign investments
In Mexico are safe and will be protect
ed" brought storm of applause from
the large gathering of representatives
of the Latin-American countries ano
tho United States.
Mexico is now in the reconstruc
ton period" DR.. Rojo said. "All She
wants is that, rather than handicap
ping her at every movement, outsid
ers may be a little patient, as Mexico
has always paid what she owed AnC
the longer they have waited for us tc
pay the dearer it has cost us.
eff countries as strong as Great
Britain and the United States are ex
periencing a difficult social and eco
nomic condition, it is not fair to ex
pect from Mexico the same conditions
that prevailed there in 1910 The world
shall never go backward. and the state
of affairs created by the social move
ments of my country is as impossible
to eliminate as the conditions created
here and in Europe by the war"

INvES TiGATE CUTOVERLANDS
Congress viii Be Asked To PAST
Laws To Have Large Areas
Surveyed.

Washington. - Efforts are to be
made by the government for the utili
zation of the millions of acres of cut.
over lands throughout the country A
recommendation is now before the
secretary of agriculture and, if he ap.
proves it, legislation will be intro
duced in congress calling for a survey
of these lands with a view of deter
mining that for which they are best
adapted.
1t is urged that while some Of these
lands will be suitable only for refor-
estfng, others, depending upon the
character of the soil. may be convert
ed into pasturage by the planting of
grasses especially adapted to the soil
and climate. This survey doubtless
would be undertaken by the depart
ment of agriculture and DR.. c. V Pf-
per, OF the bureau of plant industry
and leading authority on grasses,
already has given this matter some
consideration.
While most of these lands are in
the south, there are also enormous
acreages in Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Michigan, and these, too. would be in
cluded in the proposed survey.

WILSON PRINCIPLES UPHELD
President Denies Any of His Fourteen
Points Are Ignored by
Peace Treaty.

Paris.-"I am convinced our treaty
project violates none of my princi-
pies" President Wilson is quoted by
the Matin as having said when he
was made acquainted with the German
contemporaries to the peace treaty.
IF | held a contrary opinion l would
not hesitate to confess it and would
endeavor to correct the error. The
treaty as drawn up, however, entirely
conforms with my fourteen princi-
pIes.''
1t is understood here that the Berlin
government is sending photographed
~ reproduced copies of the peace
terms to every United States senator
and representative.
II is probable the allied and asso-
ciated powers will comply with the
German demand to state approximate
ly the maximum sum which Germany
must pay in reparation under the
peace treaty. according to the Matin.
This sum. it added, will be from 200 to
ESQ billion francs. (The larger sum
named, on . gold valuation, would not
be far from 90 billion dOllars.)

The Italian Farmer.

The italian farmer is evidently moth
ing If not willing to experiment. No
fewer than three classes of collective
farms are in successful operation in
The country. In one class a cO-opera-
tive society of farmers acts as landlord
for the individual members. each OF
whom tills his own farm Independently
Of the others. Under the second plan
the cooperative society holds the
and. decides from year to year how II
IS TO be divided and cultivated. and
appoints each member 10 his part in
The program Of cultivation. The third
plan Is more complicated the CO.
operative society rents large farm
which Is worked by permanent STAFF
Of members receiving q salary for their
services. and by other members who
divide their time between work on the
cooperative farm and on privately
owned farms. All three forms Of Co
operation are highly successful accord
ng to recent accounts. They have this
point in common, the elimination 81
between farmer and con
sumner.

ARRESTPRESIDENTO FI.W. W.
Anarchists Make Futile Attempt To
Blow Up Several Promi-

Pittsburgh, Pa.-RoDert Johnson. So

partment of justice in a downtown Of
flee building. Johnson opened fire on
the detectives with a revolver when
they opened the door of |. w. w. head
quarters on the third floor OF the build
ing with a key taken from a suspect
arrested in connection with the bomb

Several bullets passed through the
clothes of detectives, but no one was
injured. Johnson was overpowered

found in the office.
Explosions took place in Washing
ton, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Newton
vile, Mass; Boston, Philadelphia, Pa
terson, n. j., and New York None of
the men for whom the mombs were in
tended was hurt. but one man, a watch
man in New York. was killed; one of
the plotters himself was blown to
pieces when an Internal machine in
tended for Attorney General A. Mitch
ell Palmer exploded prematurely.
Hope is held out by federal agents
that the perpetrators of the crimes will
be apprehended. Tho identity of the
anarchist apparently has been estab-
Iished.
The outrages are believed to be a Sc
auel TO the May day bomb plot, when
internal machines were mailed to a
score of prominent men over the coun-
try.
The explosions were accompanied by
the scattering of anarchistic literature
written by persons who were not illit-
crate. The literature contained the
stock doctrines of radicals who have
been preaching class war.
