Malini BATTLES Walter Reed
Men With Mystityiing Tricks

Amazed and mystified. about four
hundred of the wounded veterans at
Walter Reed Hospital tried in vain to
see through an assortment of mag
1caI tricks perpetrated for their
amusement by the famous Malini at
an exhibition he staged for them yes
terday afternoon. The big Red Cross
recreation room was crowded with
all the disabled soldiers that could
leave their wards. and they sat in as
tonishment as one bewildering
sleight-of-hand mystery followed an
other Today they are still trying to
puzzle out how some of the tricks
could possibly be done.
Other magicianS have been to Wal
ter Reed and put on more elaborate
shows, but the soldiers all agreed
that never before had they seen such
dexterfty. Introduced as the great
est sleight-of-hand expert that the
world had ever seen, who had COM
pletely baffled President and Mrs.
Harding at luncheon last week and
who at one time or another in his
career had played before and been
heads of Europe and Asia. Mr.. Malini
stepped on the stage and with what
accessories he could find at hand
turned off one seeming impossible
stunt after another.
The only paraphernalia the artist
took with him was an ordinary pack
of cards. At the hospital he borrowed
a few eggs, some glass tumblers. a
couple of knives and a tin tray. With

these he proceeded. He cut strings
in half and made them whole again.
He borrowed a dollar bill and had it
pop up inside of lemon. He passed
one glass through another. He made
all manner Of things disappear and
reappear again, but these he called
"only preliminaries." His real mirac-
ulous tricks were done with cards
The beauty of these was that he was
watched from close quarters. Six SOL
diers were on the stage giving the
closest scrutiny, and their eyes nearly
popped out during the performance.
stunts was one to which none of the
veterans was able to give the slight
est clue. The magician went among
the audience and let ten people pick
cards, but not removing them from
the pack. He then was securely blind
folded and the cards shuff1ed and
thoroughly messed around on a table
faces down. Malini then proceeded to
pick from the mass with a penknife
each of the ten cards chosen without
a mistake. This was greeted by great
enthusiasm and wonderment from all
the spectators.
Mr.. Malini's eight-year- son also
helped in the performance. His father
let ten soldiers draw cards from the
pack and the young boy on the stage
with his back to the audience called
off each one correctly. The youth was
given just as big a hand as his father.
Mr.. Malini will be in Washington a
week longer. This magician never
appears on the stage, but during this
visit to the capital he is to give two
performances at the New Willard
Hotel .-.---. 80 .,-

COMPANY AWARDS SIS EACH
TO VIGiLANT M0T0RMEN
w. r. & E. for Third Time This
Year Honors the Men Who
Avoid Accidents.

The Washington Railway and Elec.
trio Company last night presented to
each of 731 motormen and conductors
a crisp new five-dollar bill as re-
ward for having gone through the
last three months without an accident
for which they were responsible. This
was the third quarterly award made
by the company during 1921.
A. Fl. Ferrandou, executive secre-
tary of the company, said today that
there are indications that fully 500
trainmen will finish the year without
an accident due to their carelessness.
Each man who makes that record
will receive new uniform from the
company.
S. r. Bowen, vice president. pre-
sented to r. T. Jenkins, superintendent
of the western division. the banner
for having gone through the third
quarter of the year with fewer acci-
dents than any other division. This
division reported a reduction OF 4S
per cent in accidents during the last
three months. as compared with the
same period of 1920.
The system as a whole showed re-
duction Of % per cent in the number
Of accidents during the last quarter.
as compared with last year.
The trainmen assembled in the com
pany's offices at 14th and b streets TO
receive the awards and heard brief
addresses by William F. Ham. presi-
dent; Roger D. Whiteford, trial at
torney; Charles Walker Of the Column
bia division, Edward c. Hampton OF
the Brightwood line and Frank Due
werth of the Columbia line. The
meeting was in charge of Harry NJ
Keyser, claims attorney.
The present system Of quarterly
prizes was adopted by the company
last January, in the belief that re-
wards for carefulness would bring
better results in reducing accidents
than fines for carelessness.

Want U. s. Protection.
The majority of the Christian Fill
pinos are represented as favor1ng In
dependence under protection OF the
United States, while a smaller number
of them desire immediate and COM
plete independence. The Moros are
a unit against independence and ask
that the portion OF the islahas .pe
longing to them be retained as Amer
lean territory in the even lnde-
pendence ever is granted, the report
says, while the pagans and nom
Christians, constituting about 10
per cent of the population, are for
continued American control. and the
Americans in the islands are prac-
tical unit in opposition to independ-
ence.
Economic conditions are favorabiy
commented upon and evidence is sub
mited by the WoodFOrbeS mission m
dicating progressive development. Fig
ures show the gross business OF the
islands to have increased from $2O0:-
COO, 900 in 1907 to $685., 100000 in 1870:
while the total resources OF commercial
banks rose from S15,000,00O in 1906 to
present estimates of $215,0O0, 900. Money
orders sold increased from $S.000.0OO in
1913 to S17, 100000 in 1920: postage re-
ceipts from S6S0,000 in 1913 to $780, 600
in 1920. and the gross earnings OF the
Philippine railway Increased IN IN ddn tme
The Manila railroads gross earnings in
creased from $2.40O.0oo in 1914 to s5'-
900, 900 in 1920.

'the problem of rehabilitating the credit
of the Philippine Islands should be an
easy one.
Philippine National Bank "as one of
the most unfortunate and darkest
pages in Philippine history" Losses
sustained by the bank are estimated
at $22.50O.000. and are said to have
been caused by mismanagement on
the part of some of those who have
been at it's head and in charge of
branch Offices. Criminal charges have
been preferred against the managers
of each of the four branches in which
examinations have been completed,
the report cites, adding that they
were in each instance in charge of
unframed Filipinos.
Fraud in Elections.
The mission reports that inspectors
of election" required under the laws
to prepare ballots for illiterate voters,
supply fruitful source of frauds"
The election machinery is practically
in the hands of the dominant parties
and the inspectors of elections too
often are their tools. the report says.
1T is surprising it adds, that
the elections have been conducted as
well as they have been, in view of
the fact that outside the larger cities
and principal towns, the organizati ton
of society is very primitive and the
people generally are unaware of
their civil rights"

SEE LACK OF EFFICIENCY

Despite extraordinary progress in
the past twenty-three years, the
Filipino people have a long road to
travel before they will be ready to
take over their own government, ac-
cording to the report made by Maj.
Gen. Leonard Wood, governor gen.
eral of the islands, and w. Cameron
Forbes, former governor general. The
complete report was issued today by
the War Department, as a supple
ment to the recent publication or
specific recommendations made by
the two investigators.
Need of further national improve
nient is pointed out by the report,
which declares. however. that the
administrative mistakes OF the FIJI
pinos have not been sufticlent 10
counterbalance the steadily rising
progress barometer
Departments '.Top Heavy"
Generally speaking" the report
says. administrative departments OF
the government are top-heavy in
personnel and enmeshed in red tape.
There is vast amount of paper
work. The methods of the admins
tration are purely autOcratic- There
is lack of supervision and personal
contact
Discussing the policy pursued dur
ing the administration of Governor
General Harrison from 1914 to l92l,
the report declared ''the orderly
process of promotion on proved Ell
ficiency" in the government service was
changed to hurried Filipinization.
Full Blame Not on FiIipinOs.
"While there has been retrogression
in the efficiency of most departments
of the government during the past
few years we do not feel that the
responsibility for this rests solely
upon the FilipinoS. as the ultimate
responsibility for the selection of re-
sponsible officers and for the exercise
of proper supervision was in the
hands of the American governor gen
eral. whose duty il was to appoint
competent men at the heads of de-
partments and bureaus, and. above
-nrcise proper supervision
over them.'

Filipinus. Americans and foreigners
that the public services are now IN
many particulars relatively inefficient;
that there has occurred slowing
down in the dispatch of business ana
a distinct relapse toward the stand

former days" the report adds. This
is due in part to bad example. incom-
petent direction, to political infect1on
of the services. and. above ak to lack
of competent supervision and lnSpec-

Against Independence.
The report asserts that the Filipino
people as whole do not want inde-

prehend the esponsibilities of self
government.
."The people as a whole said the
report, "are appreciative of the peace
and order which prevail throughout
the islands. Many do not understand
what independence means or its re-
sponsi bilities. They are living under
the best conditions they have ever

PACKER EMPLOYEES
ORDERED TO STRIKE
Union Leaders Against Wage
Reduction and Shop Repre-
sentation System.
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO. ILL.,. December 2.-Declar-
ing that the shop representation sys-
tenn inaugurated by the big FIVE"
packers did not-represent the senti-
ment of the employees, and that they
did not approve the wage reduction
of 10 per cent which went into effect
last Monday. Cornelius Hayes, presi-
dent, and Dennis Lane, secretary. of
the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and
Butcher Workmen Of North America,
today sent out instructions for a
strike next Monday.
Packing plants in about fifteen
cities and $4,000 men will be affected,
Mr.. Hayes said.
Would Have Little Eject.
The packers declared that a strike
would not seriously hamper the work
of distributing meat products. as the
unions were not represented heavily
enough to affect the plants, should
the organized men walk out.
The meat cutters and butchers are
one of the younger unions, having
come into life during the war, when
the soverhment appointed Federal
Judge Samuel Alschuler to adjust diff
ferences between packers and work.
ers SO that the supply of meat might
be unimpeded.
This arrangement expired Septem-
ber Is and a controversy between
packers and employees over wages and
working conditions began.
Workers Get Cut.
The Armour. Wilson, Swift and Cud.
ahy companies Immediately began a
system of plant conferences. calling
in representatives of their employees.
In October the butcher workmen took
a strike vote and walkout was au-
thorized q; large majority.
The r~t assemblies, after several
conferences, decided upon 10 per
cent wage reduction. the amount be-
ing fixed by the men. and it became
effective last Monday.
Enthusinstically Received.
The strike order apparently was re-
ceived enthusiastically in middle west
packing centers, according to reports
received here today.
Kansas City packing employees, while
awaiting receipt of the strike order, are
said to have urged their leaders to de-
clare an outlaw strike If the order was
longer delayed.
Union leaders at Omaha declared the
strike would affect nearly 5000 men
there and predicted they would have the
support Of the American Federation of
Labor.
Mass meetings at Fort Worth, Tex. 4:
ST. Joseph. Mo-; Oklahoma City and
South ST. Paul, Mimi. voted to up
hold the action Of their international
officers in calling the strike.
