entrances of the stores and loaded the
vehicles with foodstuffs. Then the
ramions were whirled to strike head

distributed. Only food stores were
looted

strikers congregated in the Piazza, Vic

"BIG BUSINESS BEHIND
THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS"
So Says Senator Pondexter of Wash.
ington in Address at Rochester,
N. Y.-BoIshevism Scored

Rochester, n. Y. July s. United
States Senator Miles Poindexter of
Washington declared in speech at
an Independence day celebration of
the Rochester chamber of commerce
here yesterday that international big
business is backing the league of ma
lions and the international pacifists
are supporting both the league of ma
tons and bolshevism. The land" he
said, sis full of Tories, as in 1916, and
1T is time for every patriot to be on
guard"
The senator devoted considerable
part of his speech to an analysis of
the league of nations and its effect
upon the independence of the United
States. He said in part:
Eve are told that to secure the CO.
operation of nations to preserve peace
we must establish a league of ma
lions and put under its control the
major forces of mankind
"On the contrary, should the power
to enforce peace be surrendered to a
leaugue of nations, with its own dis
tinct government, there would be no
such thing as the free cooperation
of nations to enforce peace, since the
nations would have Invested them
selves of this power and conferred it
upon the league of nations.
"The Monroe doctrine has done
more to preserve peace for 100 years
than all the leagues of nations ever
formed. 1t is proposed now to aban-.
don it in the very name of the peace
which it has preserved and to give
to league of nations, dominated by
Europe, complete jurisdiction over
every international dispute in which
we may be involved.
There Is another menace to our
liberties in the propaganda of, boil
shevism. 1t is put forward in the
name OF labor, but In fact would be
utterly destructive of labor Bolshev-
ism would destroy industry, and there
would be no labor The end would be
the destruction Of civilization and
return to barbarism, if not the exter-
mination Of the race"

M EVIDENCE OF
U. S. CELEBRATED
GENERAL PERsH!NG GUEST OF
HONOR AT FESTIVAL IN THE
FRENCH CAPITAL
HAVE WILD WEST PARADE
Europeans More Excited Over Appear
ance of Cowboys and Indians Than
in Great Military Pageant
Marshal Foch Honored

Paris, July 5.-A gala performance
Foch and General Pershing as the
specially honored guests concluded
the notable joint French and American
celebration of the Fourth of July The
day opened with an early morning
review commemorative Frances par
ticipation In the American revolution
and the celebration afforded varied
entertainment for the thousands of
American soldiers marking time in
Paris while awaiting transportation
homeward.
There was even a real wild west
parade down the Champs Elysees. The
cowboys, cowgirls and Indians, riding
gaily through the Place de la Concorde
to the music of a wild west band,
proved far greater attraction TO the
French than the brilliant military spec
tacle.
The tremendous ovation given Mar
shall Foch at the American chamber
of commerce luncheon and his re-
Spouse TO persistent demands for a
speech was one of the most pleasant
features of the celebration.
Marshal Foch WAS seated beside
General Pershing at the luncheon.
The address of General Pershing was
supposed to conclude the program but
the 400 diners, including all the prom
inent members of the American colony,
the British ambassador, and nearly
all of the South American diplomats in
Paris, rose and insistently demanded
a speech from Marshal Foch.
The marshal spoke of the hearty
cooperation of the French and Ameri-
can troops, and the common ideals
of the two peoples, and proposed a
toast to "the victorious American
armies" which he drank touching
glasses with General Pershing.
Later in the afternoon there was a
scene of great Franco-American frater-
nizing at the Paris city hall in honor
of General Pershfng, Rear Admiral
Harry S. Knapp. commanding the
American naval forces in European
waters, and their staffs.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK is
OPTIMISTIC FOR U. S. A.
Warning Is Given, However, Against
Undue Speculation.-Record Crops
East of Mississippi River

Washington, D. c., July 3.-Opti-
mism as to the business outlook re-
ported in the federal reserve boards
monthly statement of conditions was
tempered with renewed warning
against undue speculation.
I'm nearly all the districts" the
boards statement said, 1.-THE opinion
is entertained that the prospects for
successful and prosperous year, with
a very large output of goods and
almost unprecedented financial returns
to manufacturers. agriculturists and
Iaborers, now are positive. The pos
ibility that speculation may be car
ried too far and may exert an injuri-
Gus influence, aided and furthered by
the existence of free credit and specu-
lative tendencies, appears as the prin-
cipal offsetting influence in the stu
ation.''
Prices continued to rise throughout
June. The boards statement showed
an enormously heavy demand for
goods for export had rendered prod
ucts in many lines scarce. In nearly
all districts it was reported business
men had decided they could rely upon
heavy demand and continuously sus-
tanned prices for some time to come,
while feeling of apprehension en-
tertained early in this year was dis
appearing. jobbers and retailers read
lily entering into large commitments
for fall and winter.
In many respects the agricultural
prospects of the early spring are be-
ing more than justified. Wheat, corn,
cotton, tobacco, and Pacific coast crops
Will be harvested in record quantities.
Livestock continues high in price.
Steel and iron experienced distinct
turn for the better. The fuel situa-
ton has been much below normal,
with prospects of tight situation next
winter. Metal mining industry was
again improving.
Manufacturing likewise took strong
upward turn during June. Demand
for fine cotton goods exceeds produc
ton. Shoe factories are producing at
a maximum capacity, while heavy
demand from Europe has drawn off
much of the available supply. Wool
products are sold ahead for months.

BUTTE MINERS MAKE NEW
DEMANDS ON OPERATORS
Five-and- One Halliday Week With
by Unions in New Contract

Butte, July 3.-The Unions en-
braced in the metal trades, together
with the carpenters, also an American
Federation of Labor organization, have
presented demands to the mining COM
panies In this district relating to
wages. These unions ask for wage
schedule Of So for journeymen with 81
a day for helpers with double pay for
overtime and holidays, the seight-hour
day to prevail except that there shall
be no work, except as overtime, on
Saturday afternoons and Sundays.
This would mean, If effective, five
and-a-half- day week. The miners have
not yet been heard from, but 1t Is I'M
derstood that underground workers in
eIuded in the Metal Mine Workers
union are considering demands which
may be presented later.
The present scale Of wages for me-
chanics at the mines Is 1913 and So
for eight-hour days with 81 less for
helpers. Affiliated with the Metal
Trades council are the following
unions: Boilermakers, blacksmiths,
pipefltters, pattern makers, machinists,
electrical workers, plumbers, sheet
metal workers and certain engineers.
No answer was made by the compa-
MES Yesterday, as several officials are
not at present In the city. Miners are
working as usunl in the district and
all the trades affected are working
also. No time was specified for an
answer from the companies, and 1t is
considered probable that reply will
not be given the unions until next
week.

Dempsey Starts Away.

The crowd thought the fight was
over in that round. Willard was down
for the seventh time and the count
apparently was about to end when the
gong sounded. 1t was a modest gong
which could not make itself heard be-
fore so many people and even Demp-
sey did not get it. He crawled through
the ropes and was headed out on the
shoulders of screaming fans when the
truth was broken to him and he was
hauled back.
