{ AS I REPORTS
CHRIST IANS
SAFE

Possibility that the recent Mosiem
invasion Of Jewish suburbs and col
onies in Palestine would result in
inimical incursions on the rights Of
Christians in the Holy Land
was characterized as remote. ac
cording to cable advices received in
Washington from Jerusalem by the
Rev. Bernadine Bidipger, o. F. NJ
prior Of the Franciscan Monastery
at Brookland.
Father Bidinger, who officially
represents in America the Catholic
interests In Jerusalem and most of
tained information that all shrines
in Palestine were unharmed by the
Bedouins.
Escaped Unharmed
Clergynen and Christians gener-
ally throughout the Holy Land have
thus far escaped injury in the up
rising, the report said.
The Jewish-Arab situation in
Palestine, the report stated, had
AhAPAONG0 WAliih petSS
week and that a further threatened
invasion of Zionist colonies by
Moslems was not deemed likely.
The report made no attempt to
fix the originating cause Of the
Zionist Arab trouble, but stated that
Jewish casualties were high.
Keeping Close Watch
Father Biiinger pointed out. that
Catholic observers were keeping a
close watch on developments be.
tween the warning factions in Pales-
tine as the church had millions of
dollars invested in Holy Shrines in
Jerusalem. Bethlehem and numerous
other cities in Palestine and Egypt.
Hundreds of Catholic clergymen
of the Franciscan order, Father
Bidinger said, were at present sta
toned at various places in the
Holy Land administering to Chris.
tian residents there.
He also explained that there was
also a large transient Christian
population throughout the Holy
Land occasioned by tourist excur-
sions from all parts of the world.

HIDE TARIFF
PLEA OPPOSED

Bureau Federation. made a propo5-
al before the house ways and means
committee that a tariff of 10 per
Cent ad valorem be placed on hides.
At q session Of the committee last
night representatives of New Eng

selves as stunned by Gray's propos-
al and said. they came to Washing
ten prepared to protest a duty Of
only Is per cent on hides.
j. z. McElv'ain. Of Boston. repre-
senting the National Boot and Shoe
Manufacturers association. estimat-
ed that a duty Of As per cent would
mean that everybody who bought
shoes would pay from ninety cents
to a dollar more per pair. He said
that in the course of a year this
would probably mean about S270,-
O00.0c0 more for shoes over the a
ton.
While McElwain opposed the pro-
posed duty on hides he advocated a
duty of IS per cent on shoes. He
said that importationS OF shoes into
this country had grown during the
last five years from 393,929 pairs
TO 2.616.884 pairs.
