RIOT IN JERUSALEM
TOBFI VESTIGATFD
Official Inquiry Has Al
ready Been Started
SIX PERSONS KILLED
Trouble Broke Out On Ami
versary Declaration National
Homeland For Jews

Jerusalem, Palestine, November g.
An official INJURY has been started in
to the riot of November 2, the fourth
anniversary of the Balfour Deciara-
ton in which Palestine was promised
as National Homeland for the jews,
when six persons were killed and
thirty six wounded.
The trouble had been seething since
two weeks ago, when the Palestine
Committee for independence, with
headquarters in Egypt, sent kilograms
to all parts of Palestine advising all
natives to close shops and cease work
yesterday as a protest against Eng
lands policy in the Holy Land.
The government. therefore. having
learned Of the holiday" kilograms,
had taken elaborate precautions for
the safety Of the people. Troops with
drawn bayonets had been stationed In
Armed motor cars parade the prin-
cipal streets. Mohammenans and
Christians kept their shops closed.
Even the Jews who favor English oc-
cupation, fearing disorders, had de-
cided to take a holiday.
Patriotic Speeches Made
In accordance with prearranged
plans, a large crowd of Mohammedans
at nine o'clock had gathered in the
Mosque of Omar, their only place Of
worship In Jerusalem. Patriotic
speeches were delivered by influential
Moslems, thus creating tense feel
ing against the Jews. who were pic
tured as trying to usurp the country"
What is believed to have added fuel
to the anti Jewish fires was the fact
that the Mosque directly oyeriooks
the Jewish synagogue.
No one could determine with any
degreeeof accuracy today just how the
fighting started. Many rumors were
circulated, Numerically differing &C.
cording to their origin. One. report
was to the effect that young Jew OF
Bolshevist type had gone to the Mos
que and jeered the Mohammedan
speakers. Another report placed the
blame on a group of Moslem boys
who are alleged to have invaded the
Jewish quarter, beating men and wo-
men with sticks. But the real origin
of the fighting, at the moment of
, writing, is still a mystery. However,
it was established that disorders be-
gan at ten o'clock In the morning in a
ing had spread to all sections of the
walled city.
Meanwhile, martial law had been
declared The first act of the military
was to disarm the members OF the
police force who were charged with
col1usion with the rioters. Soldiers
were rushed to the affected areas with
machine guns. BY two D. m. the sit.
uation was well in hand and order
had been restored. The night was un-
eventfM.

Regina, Sask., December 13.-While
1t is believed that within a year most
of the Mennonite colonies in Saskat-
chewan will have left the province,
the destination of some OF them is a
matter of conjecture.
The first Mennonite party is now on
it's way to Alabama and others will
follow to other parts OF the United
States, Some OF the colonies have
sent emmissaries to Mexico, Florida
and South America but whether or
not any of the Mennonites will mi

BIG FARMER PROBLEM

Great Difference Between Agricuitur-
al and Industrial Output Puzzlsr
Chicago, December 13.-The big
problem the farmer Is most anxious to
have solved is why, when agricultural
output is growing at fairly even
rate, industrial output Is violently
spasmodic" j. r. Howard, president
of the American Farm Bureau FEEDER
at Its annual convention today.
President Howard declared that tile
farmers purchasing power in general
was only two thirds OF what it was
before the war.
''In my judgment this Is mainly due
to the curtailment Of industrial OUT
put while Agricultural production con-
tinued practically normal" he said.

on the other hand would only have TO
pay us % per cert more pounds than
she received. because her exchange
has not deprecated to the same ex-
tent. Thus France, Italy, Belgium
and our other debtor nations are
penalized much more because of ex-
change depreciation than Great Bri-
tain, whose money is more stable.
Payment at Old Rate
"I have heard 1t suggested, and 1t
Is worthy Of most serious considera-
ton, that we accept repayment of
our loans at the same rate OF exchange
existing at the time the loans were
made. We would thus give the great
est measure Of relief to those coun
tries needing it most. France must
accept some suggestion that Will per-
NIT restoration Of commerce with
Germany and effect that measure OF
world disarmament we are all so de-
sirous OF accomplishing.
I'VE on our part must realize the
impossibility Of collecting the ten bill
lion dollars due under present condi
tions. Europe has not the gold with
which to pay us even interest on this
amount. They have only goods with
which they might pay. Payment OF
this amount in goods would certainly
mean great unemployment in America
and rather than that we had better
forget the entire debt.
80 each of the allied nations must
contribute something for the general
good and make hold to suggest some
steps that may be taken to accom-
plish the desired result:
-
substantial modification Of rep
aration terms in order to bring
them within the bounds Of pos
sibility.
Second. We to agree to
moratorium Of say twenty years.
for due us. For the first ten years
only small rate Of interest, per-
haps 2 per cent. After twenty
years has passed we to receive
our principal in full with a proper
interest on deferred payments
from that time. possibly accepting
from France, italy and Belgium
payment at the same rate or ex-
change existing at the time loan
was made.
Third. Those nations to whom
this concession is extended TO
modify amount of reparaion from
Germany and make terms thereof
with which it is possible for Ger
many to comply.
Fourth. England to agree to
make similar concessions to ma
tions which are in her debt.
Fifth. Steps must lie taken to
insure that Germany's budget will
balance. Her receipts from tax
alton, ETC., must fully meet her
current expenses plus the amount
of indemnity obligation finally
settled upon.
This protection is vitality necessary
to insure good faith. on the part OF
Germany, although it would seem that,
settlement having been reached, her
own self interest would be guaran-
tee of good faith.
"The big thing now is to conceive
some plan which will enable the coun-
tries of Europe TO stabilize their
money in order that commerce may
flow freely as between countries. and
thus avert the impending disaster
which threatens the world.
These suggestions are neither
philanthropic nor idealistic, but
simply good, sound, business sense.
They will create kindly feeling toward
us, that intangible asset which can bd
made to pay dividends in time to
come, much greater than the full
amount of debt owing u.s."
