66 MARINE STRIKERS
 ARE DECLARED GUILTY
By Aasoctatod Press

New Orleans. June Sixty six
 marine strikers charged with violat-
 ing federal injunction enjoining
 interference with ships and their
 non- union, crews were found guilty
 late today by jury in the United
 States district court, Judge Rufus F.
 Poster presiding.
 The wholesale conviction is said to constitute a record for any court
 in the south, and has had few
 parallels in the country.
 Attorney W. J. waguespack. rep
 resenting the accused men, imme-
 diately filed notice that he would
 take two simultaneous appeals--one
 to the United States supreme court
 and the other to the United States circuit court of appeals. Judge Eos
 ter will sentence the SC men at 3
 a. m. Saturday. There is no pre-
 scribed limit, it is said, to the extent of the sentence Judge Foster can impose.
 The trial was in progress 13 days.
 The case went to the jury at noon and after deliberation of four hours and 45 minutes, the verdict was re- turned at 4:40 p. m.
 Elaborate preparations were made to curb any demonstration over the verdict. Besides a large force of deputy marshals, more than 30 po- licemen formed a cordon around the seats occupied by the prisoners. The verdict was received in silence. The men were accused of board ing the steamship Hadnot about three weeks ago. abducting the crew. taking the non-union men to union headquarters and there severely fbeating them.

FIRST ACCOUNTING ON PARAT|ONS
 WILL BEGIN SOON
By Associated Press

Paris, June s.-The first account ing between the allies on reparations will be taken up within a few days after the allied experts, in accord with the reparations commission, have established the balance available of the sums paid by Germany in money and in kind.
 While the separations commission has not yet finally fixed the estimate of deliveries in kind, from the rough figures on hand they are believed to total 5000 100000 marks gold. The cost of the allied occupation of Ger many, which must be deducted from this sum, is thought to be in the neighborhood of 7,o0O 900 marks, leav- ing 1o0O.oo0,0o0 marks, gold. to be recovered from the allies benefiting from the deliveries, This 1000, 900, 900 marks. together with the 1000, 900. 900 to the reparations commission under the peace treaty as the first payment on reparations. makes the total ball ance in hand on the reparations ac- count 2,00o,0oo,ooo gold marks. The latter sum just equals Belgtum's pri- ority share of 2,500, ,O00.o gold francs. and it is understood here she expects 1t will be paid to her.
 It remains for the reparations com mission to fix the value of the deliv- cries to the different allies. including 2,500,000 tons of coal to Belgium, about the same quantity to Italy and IS. .000. 900 tons to France, and about 1000, 900 tons of merchant ships. of which 4,500,000 tons were delivered to Great Britain and 1S5,000 tons to France. The commission never has recognized the Spa agreement fixing the prices for coal deliveries and the settlement largely depends upon it's decision on that point.
 Belgium's claim to priority Is rec ognized by the commission. but the question remains to be decided whether the 1,000.000 marks, gold paid by Germany had better be held by the reparations commission as a guarantee of payment of interest on the international loan it is proposed to float, with the 12,000, 100000 marks in German gold bonds remaining on the first schedule of reparations pay ments as collateral. Belgium would share in this loan and consequently would not have to wait to realize on her prior claims NJ. Jasper, the Bel gian foreign minister, now Is Tn Paris to take up the different ques- tions and is expected to have asked an accounting.

 Mine Layers
By Associnted Press

Constantinople, June S.--Turkish nationalist authorities have opened the frontiers to admit large bodies of Moslem bolshevik troops which have been concentrated during the past month on the Armenian border.
 The Angora government has also made an offer to General Wrangei, former head of the anti -bolshevik government of southern Russia, to transplant his army in Thrace. and there form a Turco Russian republic, General Wrangel has rejected this plan.
 The Greek fleet appears to have been given liberty of action by the allies. The Greek battleship Kilkos, formerly the old battleship Missis- sippi of the United States navy, has proceeded into the Black sea with a Greek destroyer and is sinking a number of small vessels used by the Turks in mine laying.
 In anticipation of Greek often sive, the Turks are removing roll ing stock from Afiun- -Karahissar and Eski -Shehr.

GUARDIANSHIP SHIPPING
 BOARD GIVEN LASKER
fContfuned from Page one,

NN~@A-"~~
 Harding announced the personnel of the shipping board today.
 MT. Thompson" continued the Senator, twill render great service to the board. to the nation, the south and his state. I think the appoint ment most excellent, and one that will greatly rebound to the credit of the President"
 Mir. Thompson was first appointed a member of the board by former President Wilson. The Senate, how ever, declined to confirm the Wilson appointees. After March 4, when the tenure of the old board expired, MT. Thompson along with Admiral Ben son was held in Washington as a trustee of the Emergency Fleet cor poration It was known to be req sonably certain that he would again be appointed member of the board so the announcement this morning caused no unusual surprise
 While credit for the action of the President regarding MT. Thompson is primarily due to Senator Under wood, and while in the general credit Senators Heflin of Alabama, Harri- son of Mississippi. McKe ellar of Ten nessee, and Harris of Georgia equally share. there is no question but that MT. Thompson, as a result of his own official conduct. attracted the favorable attention of the President.
 Notable Achievement
 One of his achievements, a reduc- ton of $2,O00 000 per month in the repsir bill of the vessels of the board. was generally acclaimed in Washington and his constant guard against certain procedure which seemed to give England an advan- tage in it's competition against the vessels of the United States, greatly Impressed the republican personnel of the Senate. Senator Lodge of Mas sachusetts. and Senator Calder of New York became his champions.
 Mir. Thompson'sN most conspicuous service to Alabama was the estab- lishment of the so per cent all-water rate from sNew York to Birmingham via Mobile and the Warrior river. This rate in the long run will, it is believed here, cause the shipment of all commodities. the arrival at destination of which is not depend- ent on time, by water. which will greatly increase the commercial value of the improved warLsor river.
 Of the old board, MT. Thompson and Admiral Benson of Georgia wero the only members re-appointed. The other democratic member IS ex-Sen- ator Chamberlain of Oregon. The chairman is Albert D. Lasker of Ill., inois, proprietor of the advertising firm of Lord & Thomas, and part owner of the Chicago National league baseball club.
 James A, Farrell, president of the United States shipping board, and Walter c, Teagle. president of the Standard Oil company, were offered the chairmanship but were forced to decline the appointment.

More Truth Than Poetry

u D OOn11l D<ACh I never mistrusted my fellows till

 Of leading-yes, lots of them

 tales of divorces Occasioned by marrying three or
 four wives. You hear of fellow in Oregon City Another at Carson, a third up Tn
