South Africa seems such a long ways
off that any information on the sugar
industry to inhabitants of the northern
hemisphere is especially interesting.
Thus the Natal Sugar Association re-
ports that the sugar industry EMPLOYS
from Is, 600 to 20, 900 people and that the
sugar production has tripled between the
seasons 10000 and 1888. The Afri-
cans feel the war effects in every way
particularly in building. A factory with
a capacity of Is, 600 tons of sugar a year
could be erected before the war at a cost.
Of 2l5, 900 pounds sterling. Now the
same factory costs $50, 900 pounds. ibid.

THE ELEAGUE ASSEMBLY.
A Pen Picture Of the Delegates by
an American Observer.

To the Editor Of The Star:
An American friend of mine who has
been residing in Geneva for several
league of nations idea, beautiful as it
is in theory, will not pay any heavy
, dividends in result. He is an intel
ligent, close observer, and being on
the ground his facilities for judgment
are exceptional. He gives the follow
ing quaint description of the person
atty of the members of the assembly
"Such a pack Of freaks you have
never seen. They are the men and
women of every country on earth,
yellow, green, brown and red; man
eaters, glass eaters, snake eaters.
Some of them look as if they came
from the planet Mars. These are the
only ones who want wilson's fourteen
points, but also kick against the cove
nant.
This gentleman from the very be-
ginning has been bitterly opposed to
the United States entering the league.
He wrote me to this effect even while
President Wilson was in Paris. be-
cause he was convinced the United
States would be the goat. The assembly
in it's initial stages reminds him or
debating society. He thinks the dele
gates from the minor powers Will be
afforded every opportunity to talk to
their hearts content and to outvote
the chief nations when the interests
of the latter are not in peril. But as
time goes on the reins will be tight
ened and the greater powers Will
shape affairs to their own liking.

"FoR HUSBANDS ONLY"

Seldom have the words scenic in. vestiture" been more applicable to a photoplay than in the latest Lois Weber success, For Husbands Only" Wonderfully artistic sets, magnificent in their simplicity, were designed for the interior private theater of the mil llonaire, where a portion of the action takes place, and in this action Miss Weber engaged the famous Denis Shawn dancers, the advanced pupils of Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn, to complete the picture. The whole idea and it's execution are exquisite. The Eagle and Central theaters have se- cured the privilege of showing this re- markable Lois Weber production first in Bisbee. The date is Saturday and Sunday next.

WARNS LEADERS OF JEALO U SEE s OF T H E SECTS
Rockefeller Addresses Men Of Great Protestant
 Movement

PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. 31.-John D. Rockefeller, Jr., addressing the dele
 gates to the National Laymen's con-
 ference and their hosts, 100 promi-
 nent Pittsburgh citizens, at a banquet here tonight, sounded a solemn note of warning concerning the future of the movement.
 'lf jealousy, suspicion, pettiness and misunderstanding are allowed to crop in there is a possibility this movement will be disrupted and [ brought to an end,' said MT Rocke- feller.
 q fancy We can count on the fact
 that the devil will use all the ingenui- ty of which he is capable to attack
 this great movement in just that way, from within, for he will well know that in no other possible way can he offset or withstand the great power and force of which it is capable"
 The conference which opened here today with some 200 delegates pres ent, was called by the Interchurch World Movement, to consider the whole task of the Protestant church Daniel A. Polling, director of the lay mems department of the mterchurch movement presided at the opening session.
 "The outlook and progress of the Christian church." was the subject Of the addresses at tonight's banquet, the speakers being MT. Rockefeller, Governor Carl E. Milliken of Maine, and Dr. S. Earl Taylor, prominent in the Interchurch movement.
 For too long time has the church felt" said MT Rockefeller in his ad- dress. "that the rule of thumb was
 sufficiently accurate as a guide and
 measure in it's work It is just such ! a survey as the conservative business man makes of any field which he proposes to enter and I do not feel
 that 1 overstate when I say that, in
 my judgment, the survey alone will be worth to the churches all and
 much more than it will have cost them in time, effort and resources" ]"

 might be necessary in the case of some nations, but that it was not necessary for nations like Great Britain"
 In agreeing on the S5O,O0O,0O0 total today the house ways and means committee decided not to stipulate the countries to which loans might be made. This will be left to officials of the treascuTy who have asked for S125, 900. 900 for the. aid of Poland, Austria and Armenia.
 Chairman Fordney or the ways and means ommittee said he would try to get house action on the bill Monday or Tuesday, if necessary, asking the rules committee to give the measure a preferentil status. Tn his report, President Wilson's letter favoring re- lief for Europe and two communica- tions from Secretary Glass, summariz- ing the famine situation abroad, were quoted.
 "An evidence furnished the com mittee," declared the report, seemed clearly to indicate that literally mil lions of people in the stricken DOT tions of Europe are facing starvation and their only hope of relief is the participation of the government of the United States in the furnishing of foodstuffs.'
 While the bill framed by the com mittee did not specify the countries to receive the loans, the intention was that relief should first go to Austria, Armenia and the city of Budapest
 The limitation of relief to food stuffs was said to be an expression of opposition to providing military supplies. Clothing and medicine, barred by the legislation, could be supplied, if necessary. through private charities, the committee held.

GOmpers Plans to UniOniZe Workers
 Of South America

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-Workers in the Latin-Aerican republics are urged, in a manifesto issued today by Samuel Gompers. chairman, and other officials of the Pan-American Fedora. ton of Labor, to organize national or ganization' for utilization with the Pan-American organization. This ac. ton is urged "to the end that the workers of all the American countries may be better prepared to act con- certedly for their mutual protection and advancement and to impose a check upon those forces who would subordinate them to their own mate rial aggrandizement."
 Calling attention to the third Pan- American labor congress, to be held in Mexico City beginning next July F, the manifesto says the workers in the Americas should begin now to make preparations for sending their representatives to this gathering.

SPECIAL SESSION DENOUNCED BY
 STATE JUSTICE
Especial to the Review)

PHOENIX, Jan. 31.-Insisting that there is no occasion for calling a special session of the legislature to ratify the Susan P. Anthony amend ment as Arizona has all the woman suffrage it wants, Chief Justice D. l.. Cunningham of the Arizona SUI preme court yesterday expressed some decided views in regard to the proposed special session, and suffrage for women
 Justice Cunningham says he is free to express his views as he Is not 2 candidate for any office and does not care whose feelings may be hurt, and that he regards suffrage legislation as utterly unnecessary, excepting to the party which happens to be Tn power A party in power, he says. must please as many as possible, but that as an unbiased individual he re- gards the interest of tue taxpayer Gs the foremost consideration.
 "Why should Arizona spend $10,000 or so.'' he asked, ito ratify the Susan E. Anthony amendment when Ari- zona's women have suffrage pow?' In answer to a reply that. Arizona might have some obligations to the hdllOh llC bOON blAt tttA tude that it did not owe the nation the price Of a special session for 6 cause Arizona won for itself without help.
 Besides" Justice Cunningham con- tinued, there is no certainty that & special session will ratify the amend ment as expected. I was sure once that the peace treaty would be ac- cepted, but was mistaken about that and I am not sure about the outcome of legislation any more. 1 don't mean to say that the legislature is apt 10 turn the amendment down, but I do hold that the state conremplates a bill of $10,000 or so. purely on a chance as to what the legislature will do
 There is no excuse for calling a special session of the legislature for the Susan B. Anthony amendment alone. There is question, too, whether any Arizona legislation at this time would cause the women of the nation to have the franchise Tn time for the coming presidential primaries. I doubt if it would"
 The chief justice holds that the case might be different if the women really wanted to vote. It is his opin- ion that only a small clique cares anything about the ballot. For the
Bisbee daily review., 1920-02-01

rest of the nations women, he says. they have fads, and sometimes they take a fad to vote.
 He does not consider that women as class are equal to the ballot any way He says he has studied their work at tl1e polls and found it utterly at variance with the best interests of government. In this connection he takes occasion to admit that some men are most incompetent voters and is bis opinion that the United States already has altogether too many en- franchised citizens.
 Concerning the unintelligent atti- tude of the general public toward a party ticket. he points to the usual result of the count in state elections.
 There is usually lively scrap over the governor, he said, and very often there is a scrap on for some other outstanding figure in an election, but the count usually is very close for the minor executive offices, indicat- ing that the voters are not acquainted with all of the candidates and are merely voting the party ticket.
 Justice Cunningham holds that the enfranchisement of women will mere ly continue the practice of voting the party ticket in the case of candi- dates not known to the individual voter, the relative capacities of re- publican or democrat for the import ant responsibilities of a state super intendent of banks or otEer office of no inherent political significance counting for naught.
 Why increase this kind of vOt- ing?" concluded Justice Cunningham
