EAGLE TAXES RIDE
 | ON SALMON'S BACK

Seattle, Wash, August 7.-Every man aboard the schooner Roosevelt, from the master to tthe cook, in from recent voyage said they would take an oath that they saw a huge bald eagle take a wild ride on a salmon's back in the stretch of water between Cape Nudge and Seymour Narrows Gulf of Georgia. And they brought the eagle to Seattle to prove it.
 The Roosevelt was on it's way to Seat tie from the fishing banks of Hecate strait. Shortly after passing Seymour Narrows members of the crew said they noticed a bald eagle flying close to the water near the vessel. As they watched the big bird skimming near the surface spring salmon; estimatde to weight about twenty pounds, leaped clear of the swift moving current Quick as flash the eagle drove his sharp talons into the fish's back.
 There was a great splash as the big springer dived taking the eagle beneath the surface All hands rushed to the rais to watch the eagle. Three times. they said. the fish and the bird disappeared in the water, while the Roosevelt steered a course close behind them.
 ] Finally the eagle loosened it's hold on the salmon and flopped over on the sur fact of the water completely exhausted It had put up a game fight, but had lost it's prey. The crew of the RooseVeit pulled the bird aboard with bait hoo"' The eagle was nearly drowned, but on deck if soon recovered and showed fight.
 While the battle between the bird and the fish was in progress two other eagles, inc Roosevelt's men said. flew around the vicinity screaming loudly. Captain Bar ney Pedersan presented the captured eagle to one of the local public parks.

TOOMANY HOLIDAYS
 EUROPE'S TROUBLE
By Associated Press

Budapest August 7.-John R. Mott general secretary of the International Y. M. c. A., in outlining the organiza- tion's plans for helping to reconstruct war -ravaged lands. says there are too many holidays in Europe"
 In giving the first details of the Y. M. c. A. and Worlds Student Christian Federations proposed new efforts to help broken-down Europe, pr. Mott said: Tt isn't by giving bread but work that reconstruction will be pos sible One of the tasks on which I am now engaged is to attempt to devise the wisest way to help the schools and universities of Europe from the de- cadence into which they were plunged by the war. Otherwise education will be lost through the poverty of profes- sors, and also through lack of students
 ''The keynote of my talks in Poland Czecho- -Slovakia and Hungary has been Self help. The students must learn to work their way through colleges as is the cause in the United States. From the Y, M. c. A. point of view we are establishing model branches as we hope to show the new nations their way back to work and to self help.
 Tt is not by saying Thou shalt not that the world can be bettered: it is by showing the way The Y. M. c. A will help men to spend their idleness profitably. It will adapt itself to these nations and give them something permanent There will be model Y. M c. As for universities, for railways, for industrial centers, and also in the coun try for the peasants. It is easier to get money than to spend wisely so we will go slowly on that score. We are getting ready to enter Russia, too Americans are profoundly anxious to help there

MIGRANTS MIND
 BLANK ON FIGHT
Giants" Manager Cannot Recall
 What Occurred
By Associated Prss

by Associated Press
 New York. August 14.-John I Me Garw, manager of the New York Giants today told the district attorneys office his mind was blank as to how John z. Slavin, musical comedy actor. re- ceived a fractured skull while in his company early last Sunday morning.
 McGraw, who left the Lambs club house with Slavih and a former naval officer after it is alleged he had en- gagged in fisticuffs there with William H. Boyd, fhother actor, declared he was unable to say how Slavin came to be found lying in front of the McGraw home unconscious.
 From the moment I was struck by Boyd until Monday morning, my mind was a blank declared McGraw to Assistant District Attorney Hager. who today was admitted to the McGraw home to examine the baseball man, now under a physicians care.
 Before the trouble started in the Lambs Club house, McGraw told MT. unger he had been "pestered" by an insurance agent.
 T had bought four bottles. of whis- ky" McGraw said The last bottle bought after a boy in the club had come to me and asked if I didn't want to buy more"
 All the bottles had been emptied With outside help" he continued Boyd took offense when I spoke sharply to the insurance agent wha was trying to tie me up to a con- tract. He said he objected to the Ian- guage was using. as there were scrubwomen present. I was knocked down before I knew what was happen ing
 McGraw said he saw a hand reach for water carrafe on a nearby table and that was the last he remem bered until detectives called on him later in the morning. He asserted he was not the aggressor but the one who was attacked.

AVOID LAWSUITS
 BY ARBITRATION
Chicago Association of Com merce Outlines Plan to
 Lessen Litigation
By Associated Press

Chicago, August 7.-Avoidance of bus mess law suits in favor of arbitration is urged on local business men by the Chicago Association of Commerce The association has arranged for commer- cial arbitration under the state law and has designated a committee to promote it. In address to business men, the committee says of it's work: If you have any commercial disputes in your business, you can avoid the many disadvantages of court action by using the facilities of the Chicago Asso- citation of Commerce for commercial ar bitration. You will thus obviate unde- sirable publicity delay, expense enmity and the danger of having your matter determined by a jury unfamiliar with your line
 An Illinois statute on arbitration and awards provides for commercial trade courts. The rules of the Chicago Asso- citation of Commerce for the conduct of arbitration under this statute have been approved by the superior court of Cook county and by the municipal court of the city of Chicago.
 Commercial arbitration combines an ideal method for deciding points of law It does not involve any surrender or im- pairment of legal rights, but provides for the determination of the facts before an arbitrator having ample power and competence, and if points of law arise in the evidence, these alone are sub- mitted to a court. That necessity sell dom arises.
 Arbitration is mutual and voluntary and may be conducted either with or without legal counsel, as agreed Con- troversies in the Chicago Board of Trade and in the Building Contractors Association of Chicago are satisfactorily concluded by arbitration. About 140 cases in other lines of business have been settled in this manner during the last>two years. In England, 94 per cent of all commercial disputes-dQmestic, im- port and export-are settled by abritra- ton.
 'The Chicago Association of Commerce is urging the use of commercial arbitra- ton or of commercial trade courts for the benefit of it's members and in the public interest of the city as = whole During the year 1919, there were 52, 900 civil cases filed in the municipal courts of Chicago, to say nothing ofNthe county courts. Think of the possible relief to these courts. Think of the public econ omy and the avoidance of costly delays to individuals if the majority of these cases were disposed of elsewhere in simple way
 'The association will arrange for ar- bitration in any case on request, will supply forms of submission to arbitra- ton with the law printed on the back of the form. will furnish copies of it's rules for arbitration and in many lines of business is prepared to suggest <ze names of arbitrators expertly qualified in their respective fields
 Tn order to provide for arbitration, the association submits standard clauses agreeing to arbitrate in case of dispute, such clauses to be inserted in contracts and in application for credit"
