Subsidy Portuguese Fashion

A decree that was passed in Lisbon
in the early part of the year osten-
sibly intended to foster Portuguese
shipping, provides, among other
things, for the payment of port and
pilotage charges by foreign shipping
in sterling at par, and by native ship
ping in Portuguese currency, thus
subjecting foreign steamship owners
to charges substantially so times
higher than those imposed upon do
mestic owners; reduction in custom
duties on the import and export of
goods in Portuguese bottoms; prefer
entail treatment to Portuguese ship
owners with respect to taxes, H.
censes and other charges; tax on all
passage tickets issued to foreign
steamers trading to ports in Portu-
guese colonies, provided service is
maintained to these ports by Portu-
guese lines; tax on passage fares
booked in Portugual for ports other
than those in Portuguese colonies, q
tax, which although applying to Por-
tuguese as well as foreign ships
would not seriously affect the former
as Brazil is the only country outside
Portuguese colonies to which Port
guese passenger ships at present
trade.
Although all foreign ships are
treated alike in respect of these pref.
erences and taxes, they will especially
affect the British lines, because &c
or more of such lines trading to South
Africa, South America and the east
have been in the habit of putting into
Portuguese ports en- route.--The Ma.
tion's Business.

Swedes Again to Sail
Seas to Delaware

Gothenburg, Sweden, Aug. 3.-One
of the most romantic adventures of
the Swedes during the early seven.
teenth century-the foundation of the
first Swedish colony in America
will be enacted next summer, if plans
now under way in Gothenburg ma
tefialize. 1t is proposed to reproduce
an exact, full sized model of the
"Kalmare Nyckel"-the "Key of Kal-
mar"-the vessel in which the first
Swedish immigrants to the New
World crossed the Atlantic to Dele
ware in 1888, and to sail it to AM
erica.
In order to add further interest ia
this event it is planned that the crew
and passengers be made up of Am
erican descendants of the early Swed-
ish settlers along the Delaware river
and of the descendants of later imni-
grants. Even the vessel itself is to
be built by Swedish Americans, and
the crew and passengers will be in
costumes. The new Kalmare Nyckel
is to be sailed over the same course
rs taken b2 the original immigrant
vessel which landed on the shores of
+he Delaware river more than a cen
tury and quarter before the Am
erican Revolution.
1t is thus proposed suitably to COM
memorate the coming of the Swedish
immigrants to what is now the state
Of Delaware, and to call attention to
the advancement and good fortune of
Swedish immigrants and their de-
scendants in America. The project
was suggested to the management of
the Gothenburg National Exposition
which is now in preparation and
which will be held next May to cele
brate the 300th anniversary of the
founding of Gothenburg by King
Gustavus Adolphus.

Abdullah Of Trapsjordania
Fsce Angry Tribesmen

Jerusalem, Aug, 4.-The political
situation in Transjordania Is regarded
by observers here as rapidly moving
from bad to worse, and unless the
British government intervenes in
time to give the country stable gov,
ernment, it is felt that condition of
anarchy may well develop.

but he seems to have committed an

leaders of the tribes dwelling within
his territory for having bumbled him.
self to 1bn Saoud by sueing fol

A delegation from a majority OF
the tribes of Transjnrdania recently
waited upon Emir Abdullah, remon.
strated with him on his course, and
submitted the following demands:
lie immediate dismissal of all
poli.ical advisers in the administra-
tion on the ground that these advis-
ers are paid agents of foreign govern
ments and are working only in the
interests of foreigners.
2. The immediate convocation of q
Legislative Council with powers ia
go into the details of governmental
affairs.
3. The immediate publication of the
financial condition of the country.
Replying to the delegation the
Emir said, Regarding political adj
viscrs, am aware Of everything that
is happening in Transjordania and
am working for the best interests of
my people. AS regards a Legisla-
tive Council, do not want my hands
tied as the Syrians tied the hands of
my brother Feisul, later on expelling
him from Damascus. AS to the finan

British Players Criticize
Ethics of Cricket

London, Aug. 4.-To say in Eng
land of anybody's conduct cit isn't
cricket" is an expression of strong
disapproval, for cricket, the national
game, is believed to show the Eng
-lishman at his best. Yet cricket it.
self today is being strongly censured
Here are some names printed lin
an account of a cricket match be-
tween two country clubs. Holmes
Sutcliffe, Rhodes, G. Wilson, H. L.
Higgins, A. M. Carr, Tarbox, Povey
G. S. Hurst, Robinson, L. w. H.
Troughton.
Observe carefully that some Uf
them are preceded by initials and
some are given without initials. And
it is just the presence or absence OF
initials which shows where cricket
'isn't cricket" according to the
critics. Those whose names are pre-
ceded by initials are amateurs anj
socially are accounted "gentleren;'
those who are given their surnames
only are thereby known to be profes-
sionals and not entitled to be consd
cred gentlemen"
1t would cause trouble in any Eng
lish newspaper Office if, in giving
the scores in any first class cricket
match the name of an amateur player
should appear without his initials
And it would cause just as much
trouble if a professional should be
dignifed by putting initials before
his name.
Cricket is the only game played
here in which amateurs and profes.
sionals play together as members OF
the same team. They meet on IA
miliar terms on the field and social
dist notions are never obtruded there
Eut they are in evidence all the
same if one knows where to look fol
them. There is one dressing room
provided for the gentlemen cricketers
and another provided for the pro,
fessional cricketers. They must not
take tea together; for that sacred
function cricket etiquette requires
that they should occupy separate re.
freshment quarters.
The democratic tendencies of the
day have leveled more than one Brit
ish. class distinction no less invidious
than this discrimination against team
mates in the nation game.

Europe Preparing For
Extensive Trans-Atlantic
Radio Traffic

Stackholm, Aug. 4.-SApply fol
your wave length now, Or you will
be left ont IN the cold," was the warn
ing advice given to Sweden by E. T.
W. AlexaRdersson, of New York,
chief engineer Of the Radio Corpora
ton of America, who is making q
brief business visit to Sweden, his
native land. The Radio Corpora
ton has entered its bid for delivery
Of apparatus and equipment for the
new high power wireless station
which Sweden is now building on its
west coast.
In an interview with the Stock
holm press, Mr.. E.Alexanderssou, a well
known raido expert, explained that
only an extremely limited number of
transatlantic radio stations could b.
operated successfully without serious
interference. He said that various
countries had already reserved most
Of the wave-lenSth suitable for trans
Atlantic communication, and only a
few were left. The wave lengths best
suited for such long distance trans
mission, are between 10000 and TO-
600 meters. The wave-lengths b.
tween 1850 and 1900 meters have
been reserved, while Poland has ap-
piled for the $4,000 meter length.
Mr.. Alexandersson declared that in
his opinion radio traffic should be
nonopolized by the various govern
ments of the world. Otherwise, he
said, the confusion in the air will be-
come so great that all radio service
may ultimately, be rendered impos-
sible.
The awarding of wave-lengths to
transatlantic stations is now made
by an international commission
whose next session will probably be
held in London this year.

yenal British Titles
Arouse Labor Leader

London, Aug. 4.-James Ramsay
Macdonald, Member of Parliament
for Leicester and former Chairman
Of the Labor party, has some original
ideas as to how the party should deal
with the "sale of honors," question
that has been much discussed of late
"When the Labor Party comes into
Office" he writes, zone of the very
first spare days that falls to it's lot
should be devoted to the setting ur
of committee with full powers tc
send for papers and persons to as
certain how much recent recipients
OF 'honors' have paid for their titles,
and who pocketed the money.
"I should deprive no man Of his
title once he had bought it. But
the public ought to know how much
he gave for it, and that can be ascer-
tanned by a Committee of the House
of Commons endowed with the powers
of Court Every peer created with
in the last 20 years should be asked
to send under oath statement OF
his peerage transactions, and, if in.
formation is suppressed or falsifed
he should be prosecuted for perjury
"No one who has bought a peer
age should be allowed to vote in the
House of Lords, and should not be
allowed to vote in the House of Lords
and should not be eligible for election
to any reconstructed Second Cham.
Der. All those who have bought their
way into the Privy Council should be
dismissed at once, and that body
should be purified again"
