BIZ Times Special
CHICAGO, July 5.-Marriages are
decreasing in Chicago, the license
records of County Clerk Robert M
Sweitzer disclosed. Unemployment
and the growing economic indie
pendence of women is responsible
for the trend, in the opinion of
Louis c. Legner, chief clerk Of the
marriage bureau.
The last day for June brides to
obtain licenses saw 100 couples
crowding into the bureau, but the
door was closed with a total for
the last thirty days far below that
for any June since 1923. Unless the
second half of 1923 is attended by
more weddings than the first, the
years total will be lower than for
any twelve months since 1922.

DELHI, India, Nov. 30.-Several
persons were wounded, including
Jawahar Lal, secretary of the In
dian National Congress, when a
street demonstration which they
were conducting against the Simon
Commission was fired upon by DO
lice at Lucknow yesterday.
The demonstration, to which the
police had not given license, was
under the leadership of a number
of Swarajist leaders, notably Mott
Lal Nehru, head of the Indian Ma
tionalist Congress.
/ The tremendous excitement which

Elected in the nationwide hartal, or
passive boycott, in which thousands
of workers, peasants, students and
professional and small business men
are now participating.
The firing upon the Swarajists in
Lucknow, although they are known
to the masses to have at heart do
minion status and Indian autonomy
within the British Empire, rather
than any amelioration of the condi-
ton of the workers and peasants,
has had tremendous repercussion
throughout the country.
Reports from Madras and Cal
cutta state that news of the shoot
ing was received with great excite
ment in those cities. At Bombay,
where a new textile strike involving
thousands is again in progress, the
news was received in profound
silence by the strikers. The resent
ment which is brewing within the
affected parts of the city has
aroused the authorities to take new
precautionary measures against any
disturbances.

Strong committees of workers have
already been assigned the special
task of seeing that the meeting goes
thru in smooth and organized
manner.
{ Injunction Against Meet?
Rumors, not yet possible of veri-
! fication, say that the radical
Hoelscher and Co. are taking steps
to obtain an injunction from CAPT
talist judge to halt the meeting
called by the Strike Committee. The
Strike Committee is tracing this in
formation and is also in the midst
of preparations to meet this eventu-
atty, if it comes.
The real Strike Committee, which
refused to consider itself dissolved"
despite the terror of the officialdom,
has undertaken the responsibility of
calling the broadsilk workers to-
gether in membership meeting of
their own, which the officials have
refused to do. And there the work
ers will act on the problems of win
ming the strike, enforcing union
conditions in the Settled" shops
and defining clearly their attitude
toward the National Textile Work
ers' Union.
w. l. R. Representative at Meet.
Announcement was made by the
Strike Committee that the Workers
International Relief has promised to
send representative to the meet
| ing where offers of aid in gathering
relief will be made. The National
Textile Workers Union will also
have a representative at the meet
ing besides fraternal delegates from
their locals in other textile centers.
The strike mass meeting this
morning again demonstrated the
truth of the charge against the Of
ficials that they are acting as full
fledged A. F. of L. labor takers.
First, in the cynical audacity shown
by the officials when they slandered
the worker who was recently taken
to hospital because he had COL
lapsed from hunger. When they
found it impossible to answer the
accusations of the membership that
the non-striking departments of the
union had large treasures which
the comfortably paid officials re-
fused to tap for the relief of starv-
ing members, the officials dared to
call the starvation victim, who is
known by the members as a de-
voted unionist, a gambler"
The protests of the assembled
/, workers at this vile lie proved high
ly uncomfortable to the union chiefs.
who promptly resorted to the usual
A. F. of L. tactic of adjourning the

TRIAL Staying
MAY BRING ON
BALKAN CRISIS
Try too Involve Czech
Communists

PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia. Nov
30.-When Alcibiade Bebe. the
murderer of Zena Bey. the Albanian
minister to Czechoslovakia, appeared
on the witness stand at his trial here
today, he was killed by another AL
bantam who fired eight shots at him
from the audience.
Bebe was killed when he announced
from the witness stand that he had
been sent from Belgrade. Yugo-
slavia, by secret Albanian organi-
cation hostile to Achmed Zogu. newly
appointed king of Albania, with the
mission to kill Zena Bey. After the
killing of Bebe, the assassin volun-
tarily surrendered himself to the
police.
The situation will lead to strained
relations between Yugoslavia, AL
bania, Czechoslovakia and Italy, it
is believed, and seems to have more
in it than appears on the surface.
Although Bebe's assassin announces
that he was prompted purely by the
motives of blood feud, since he was
a servant of the brother of the as
sassinated minister, it is probable
that he was sent by authorities in
Yugoslavia to keep Bebe from tell
ing too much on the witness stand.
The opinions expressed that Bebe's
assassin was sent by an underground
organization which sent him to kill
the Albanian minister, is believed to
be part of the press campaign now
being carried on in Czechoslovakia
to discredit the Communist Party
and ban it before the approaching
elections.

MEXICAN DECREE
GIVES AWAY BIG
SUBSOIL GRANTS
Gales Assures y. S.
Oil Investors

MEXICO CITY, Mexico, Nov. 80.
Close on the friendly assurances
of President Portes Gil that the
investors in the United States will
soon owe a debt of gratitude to the
present Mexican administration as
large as the fiscal debt now owing
to the United States, come reports
of a decree signed by former Presi-
dent Gales and DR.. Jose M. Puigy
Cassauranc, giving petroleum in
vestors even more specific assur-
ances.
The decree is intended to stand
ardize the basis upon which oil con-
cessions will be granted to invest
ors, but in reality gives away the
Mexican petroleum reserves on a
basis of thirty year concessions
susceptible to automatic extensic
at the end of every such period.
Minor safeguards, such as the
right of the government to inspect
the books of any contessionaire, the
right of the government to rosclnd
the concession upon GO Gays Notice,
and to try disputes in Mexican
courts, are maintained by the gov
eminent. These, however, are in
significant compared to the com.
pleteness of the decree giving away
the sub-soil rights Of the Mexican
people to foreign investors.
At the same time, it has BENIN
timated that Luis Monies de Oca,
finance minister under President
Gales, will be retained in the same
post under the new administration.
De Oca will shortly visit the
United States, where he is to dis
cuss the possibilities of a new Mex
lean loan with the bankers. The
question of passing the Mexican ma
tional railway system into the hands
of private interests will also be dis
cussed at this conference.

BUCHAREST, Nov. 30.--The con-

Of export taxes, the oppressed ma
tional minorities are to be treated

Manu- regime.
The manifesto states that the new
constitutional basis is intended to

just as in the western states
where prosperity" means profits
for capitalists and oppression of
the workers and peasants. Agri-
culture is decreed as the economic
foundation of Rumania, and accord
ingly the Manu- regime intends to
help the agricultural oppressors,
the landlords, by granting them
lower taxes, more credits and loans,
at the expense of the peasants.
"The minorities question will be
regulated by a just law in keeping
with the constitution and the spirit

spirit" is more likely to be the
spirit of western Europe with its
suppression than the spirit of the
Soviet Union with its self-determin-
alton.
