POOR PLACE TOLIVE
Without Vegetable, Bird or Animal Life, Eastern Island is Ono of Most Desolate in World.

London, Nov. 29.--Easter Islands, the land of mystery of the South Pa cifc, virtually devoid of vegetation and without bird life of any kind, is a horrible place to live, according to a New Zealand scientist who is now in London after a five months stay on the island.
 No trees grows on Easter Island because it lacks waiter and the heavy winds wreck them. No birds live there because there are no worms in the dry soil; there ar no mosquitoes, but this lack is more than compen sated by vicious local flies.
 The island is triangular, 12 miles by nine by seven, and is remote from the track of ships. Two hundred Polynesians inhabit it, and they suffer perpetually from hunger, according to the investigator. who is Professor J. Macmillan Brown.
 II is famous for it's high carved stone images, the origin of which never has been determined. Profess sor Brown says the island cannot have been long inhabited He fixes 1900 as the date of the. first settlers, and consequently of the setting up of the strange stone gods. It was first sighted by white men in 1886, and first explored in 1722, when it had 1000 inhabitants.

NEGRO PROBLEM IS
 UP FOR DISCUSSION
Third Internationalc at Moscow Listens to Colored Orators--U.
 $. Is Mentioned.

Moscow. Nov. 29.--(By Associated Press. )--The negro question came before an open session of the third internationale today. President kol- aroff proposed that detailed reports on the negro question be submitted for the purpose of clarifying the sub ject for European members who are familiar with the problem in other countries.
 One negro delegate suggested that the communist parties support the negro movement everywhere in con nection with proposal to call con- gress at Moscow of all the revolution ary negro organizations of the world ito realize united front of all work CTS against capitalism and imperial ism"
 The speaker said that the political rights of negroes in the United States were mere scraps of paper and that for a long time capitalists had been spreading propaganda among the ne, groes in favor of white capitalists and against white workers
 Claud Mckay, who, it was announc- ed is not a delegate, also addressed the internationale asserting that the negroes of America were denied the right of free assembly and were often iynched. one purpose of the capital ists being to turn the mind of the worker from class war by melting him to race war.

Forgets To Bring
Credentials
By International News Service.


DR.. Otto Wiefeldt, the new
German Ambassador to the
United States, has been in
most embarrassing position
since his arrival in Washington.
He has been in the Capital
for more than a week now and
has not yet been received by
President Harding. This fact
has caused a great deal of COM
ment in diplomatic quarters.
Today the terrible truth
came out. DR.. Wiefeldt left
Berlin SO hastily that he forgot
his letters of credence! And
he cannot be formally pre-
sented at the White House until
he has them.
The new ambassador discov-
cred that he had forgotten his
papers shortly before arriving
in New York. He sent an
urgent cable to Berlin to rush
them poste haste, and they are
now en- route to Washington,
but until they arrive DR.. Vie
felt can't meet President Hard
ing.
The paradoxes presented in
Washington's diplomatic set are
many.
DR.. Wiefeldt has a country
to represent, but has no papers.
Boris Bakhmetoff, the Rus
sian Ambassador, has the
papers, but no country.
