Pacific Islands.

German territories in the western
Pacific have in the main been assigned
to the Commonwealth Of Australia as the
mandatory Power. These include the
Rabul district, comprising New Britain
and the adjacent islands. Kaiser Will
helms Land, the German Solomon Isl
ands, which have been assigned to Aus
tralia German Samoa, assigned to New
Zealand, and the Islands north OF the
equator. Marshall, Caroline, Pelew and
Ladrone islands. assigned to Japan. The
total area administered by the self-gov-
erning colonies Of Great Britain amounts
to $3.50 square miles, with a population
Of 247,000. The Germans knew so lit
tie about Kaiser Wilhelm's Land that
they estimated it's population at anything
between 100000 and $4,000 Even now
SO little is known of the interior that all
figures are extremely sketchy.
The chief products Of the islands are
rubber, cocoa and tropical fruits. The
advantage of holding them, except from
strategical point OF view, may be
gagged from the fact that between the
date Of the capture of Samoa, August ~,
1914, and November. 1919. New Zealand
had incurred an expenditure for that
group alone OF f413.303. The good in
tenliOn OF New LedlduO toWdTu lncSe
islands is typified by the fact that last
year a nominated legislative council came
into existence with native chiefs sitting
in II. Future trade prospects of all these
protectorates are entirely problematical
but they measure always in the shadow
of the Australian and New Zealand war

Persia.
Despite good deal Of misapprehen-
sion abroad as to the relative position
of Great Britain and Persia, British
diplomatic officials by no means feel
satisfied OF the predominance Of British
influence there at the present time. The
Anglo-Pensian agreement Of 1919 has
not yet been ratified by the Persian Gov
eminent. 1t was designed to assure a
peaceful Persia and at the same time
help to guarantee the peaceful develop
ment Of Mesopotamia and protect the
route to India. 1t must always be re-

ROAD PROBLEM
BEFORE BOARD
MONDAY, 10Th.
Opinion of District Attorney
Simon as to legality of the
AWard VIII Probably Decide
Questions for Board of Sup
erEiSOrs.

A lively tilt over the awarding of
the contract for the construction OF
the Imperial Valley highways, prom
ises to be the result of the action of
the highway commission when they
informally served notice on that board
that they 'would not bow to the wishes
of the supervisors" and when the
board of supervisors meet Monday
afternoon in their office, the legal
brains OF the county will be put into
action and the matter threshed to a
finish.
From a standpoint of daw, accord
ing to the members of the highway
commission, the award was illegally
made. That is; the law provides that
the board of Supervisors may accept OF
reject the decision Of the commission,
out they cannot lawfully pass an
award, contrary to the decision Of the
highway commission, after asking the
advice of that body. This is the con
tention of members of the commits
sion.
District Attorney Simon has been
asked to give a written opinion on
the matter and file it with Clerk of
The County. The opinion was to be
in his hands today. But up to Il
O'clock it had not been made. Mr..
Simon could not be reached this after
noon. and the action of the District
Attorneys office was not learned.

LABOR MEETING
AT BURLINGTON
After Long Debate Endorsed the Can
ddacy Of w. F. kopp Of
Mt Pleasant for
ConuresS.

BURLINGTON, Iowa, May d.
After a session lasting until almost
midnight at the Trades and Labor
Assembly hall and much later by
visiting leaders in union labor poll
tics at the Hotel Burlington, word
went out that organized labor of the
first Iowa district had endorsed W..
F. Kopp OF Mt Pleasant, for con-
gress.
Admitting, that definite action had
been taken, President Criner of the
Burlington Trades and Labor AS
sembly, W A. McCone of Fort Madi-
son, and j. r. Nichols of Winfield,
who were present, said they could
give out no statement until the COM
plete report was formulated.
! "Our Instructions" said Mr. Nc
Cone, ARE to make no statement I'm.
til we can formally announce just
who we have endorsed for all state,
district and county Offices
For several days there have been
rumors that union labor was inclin-
ing toward the Mt. Pleasant candi-
date.
| Senator Thompson, It was origin
ally figured, would receive the labor
endorsement, but the keokuk meet
! ing put an end to all efforts toward
that end Then Holsteen stock went
up among labor men, and few
weeks ago it was said that union
labor would either endorse Holsteon
or no one. Holsteen was the only
candidate to appear here upon invita-
ttion of organized labor at a recent
meeting.
! Last Sunday the Kopp boom in or
ganized labor circles was given its
! first real start. The presence of Mr..
Nichols of Winfield, who is one of the
Brookhart leaders In southeastern
Iowa, has led to the report that the
Brookhart organization has inter
yened for Kopp, as it is known that
Broolxhart has great influence In
labor politics.
! Plans were also made for a Brook
hart meeting in Burlington on Tues
day evening, sponsored by the rail
road broth erhoods.
These having the affair in charge
were unable to announce definite ar
arrangements as to where the meeting
would be held nor who would be the
speakers, but it is confidentialy eH-
pected that Colonel Breokhart will be
present.
