Idle Filipinos Go Home
Seeking Work on Farms

San Francisco.-Large numbers Of
Filipinos are leaving the United States
t. replace Japanese workers on Min
danao island, southern Philippines.
according to Gabriel @. Arellano, presi-
ident Of the Filipino national conven-
tior in America
Many of the Japanese farmers on
Mindanao island have left at the in
vitation Of their government to settle
in Manchuria, Arellano said. Their
places are being taken by Flipinos,
who have had to leave the United
States because of unemployment con-
ditiOns, he said.
"Of the 1920 Filipinos in the CONT
mental United States, about 10000 are
unemployed and eager to return to-
their homeland" Arellano said.
Many of them have been advanced
money by the Mindanao Development
corporation, Filipino organization Of
Sacramento, Calf, he revealed. The
company sells them land on Mindanao
island on easy terms and aids them in
developing the production of rubber,
copra, and sugar.

New Spanish Justice Is
Slow, Records Indicate

Madrid.-Justice moves unusually
slowly in Spain and there are persons
who have been under arrest since the
proclamation Of the republic, April
IA, 1881, without trial
The principal prisoner Of this type
is Gen. Damaso Berenguer Y Fuste,
premier of Spain from January %,
1880, to February Il, 1881. He is
held in connection with the 'responsi-
bility" investigation of the execution
of Capts. Fermin Galan and Garcia
Hernandez at Jaca in the December,
1880, republican uprising. Berenguer
has been held on various occasions in
the Madrid military Jail in castle at
Segovia and has also been allowed
to remain under arrest at his home,
where he now is.
In their cells in the Madrid Jail
still are the three Miralles brothers,
ardent monarchists, who were arrest
ed during the excitement around the
Abe building on May 10, 1881. On
that occasion mob attempted to burn
the monarchical newspaper. Police
and civil guards interviewed. Shots
were fired. Two persons were killed.
Various monarchists were arrested
and all eventually released except the
Miracles brothers, although there are
no definite charges locked against
them.

w. Stirling, chief of the bureau, is
now investigating the authenticity of
this manuscript which, If it actually
was prepared by the chief, shows him
to have been skillful artist.
Autobiography in Pictures.
1t is well known that the great
Sioux leader wished to leave an au-
thentic story of his life. Shortly after
the Civil war he prepared his first
autobiography" in pictures. He could
not write his name at this time but
authenticated each drawing with his
hieroglyph signature, conventional
lied picture of sitting bull. He gave
the original manuscript to his brother,
Jumping Bull, who-as the story
reaches Mr. Stirling-allowed two
copies to be made of it by an Indian
named -Four Horns
The bureau of American ethnology
has one of these reputed copies. The
other is believed to have been de-
stroyed in the San Francisco fire. No
trace ever has been found of the orig
inal. The copy owned by the Smith
sonian is mounted on sheets Of an
1868 muster roll of the Thirty-first In.
fantry regiment and evidently was
made for one of it's officers. 1t con-
sists of So pictures. each illustrating
some incident in Sitting Bulls life
from his first fight to his leadership
of the Band of Strong Hearts.
The bureau also has Sitting Bulls
own Interpretation of these pictures,
given to Rev. J. G. Williamson. a
missionary, in which he vouched that
all but few of them were copies of
his originals. He believed at that time
that Jumping Bull had interpolated a
few incidents out of his own life.
Sitting Bulls "coups."
The character of the man himself
stands out in these pictures Nearly
all of them relate to personal combats
with Crow or eros Ventre Indians or
white soldiers. Many of these fights
ended with the scalp of his opponent
hanging from Sitting Bulls saddle
But he was even prouder Of his
Soups" than of the scalps he had
taken. His object was to touch the
enemy with his "coup stick and gel
1 away. In accord with the tradition Of
/ his people, this life of constant killing
and scalping was game for Sitting
Bull and every coup added one t.
his score. He esteemed coup" about
as much as scalp.
It is AS an object Of comparison
that the bureaus manuscript stand:
out. 1t bears the date Of 1882. In
stead of the hieroglyphic signature
the pictures hear the written sigma
ture Of Sitting Bull-a peculiar. child
like scrawl. It has heen verified tha
before 1882 Sitting Bull had learned
to write his name and was ratheI
proud Of the accomplishment.
Specimens Of the old chiefs sigma
ture have been preserved. Compare

Nuisance May Become
Source of New Industry

Minneapolis, MINI. - The aspen
growth of the Northwest, hitherto re-
garded as a nuisance by farmers, may
become the source of a new industry
and give Minnesota new source OF
income.
Experiments conducted at the Uni
yersity of Minnesota under the aus
pices of Ralph e. Montonna, associ-
ate professor of chemistry, show that
high grade of alpha cellulose can
be made from the aspen. Alpha eel
lulose is used in the manufacture of
cellophane and rayon fabric.
The research was conducted as part
of the rehabilitation program insti-
tuted last summer by Lotus D. Coff-
man, president of the University of
Minnesota.

H Legislatures Reduce Expenses

mated that the present figure would be

Efforts to increase declining rev.
enues constituted one Of the prob
lens before legislatures this depres-

asks Mr.. Stirling, why should any

ACTION TO COMPEL GOVERNOR TO AWARD
 CONTRACT IS FILED

Action has been started in the United States district court at Ketchikan to overturn official dis posal of the printing bids on the laws passed by the current Alaska Legislature. Gov. Parks has been made defendant in a suit to that end filed by the Journal Printing Company.
 The company alleges it was low bidder and that the Governor re- fused and still refuses to sign the contract. The bid was called for by Cash Cole. Auditor.
 The matter was submitted to the Attorney Generals Office by the Governor for an opinion on the legality of the bids. Judge James s. Truitt, Attorney General, ruled that the call was not issued in conformity with the law, citing Chapter 2 of the Session Laws of 1929, and that it was therefore in- valid.

The coach said today that the Kayhis did not play up to their best form last night, their shooting being particularly off color, and that from now on they will feel more at home.
 Kayhi followers, and the town is full of Ketchikan people and for mer residents of the First City who are pulling for the visiting hoopsters, point out that in both the Petersburg and the Wrangell series Ketchikan dropped the open ing game only to come back strong and win the next two. They look for history to repeat itself.
 In the Crimson Bear camp there is no feeling of over-confidence as to LIlS OutCOIilS. OOdCu cIlIiltI Wentland looks for a hard battle tonight and it is certain that the Bears will continue to give all they have in an effort to cinch the title.

The State of California now can lay claim to another athletic dis tinction, if the boys along the big slope have not already done 50.
 It is the only commonwealth in the union contributing at least ono delegate to each of the sixteen major league baseball clubs.
 The representation of Native or Adopted Sons is not only the wid- est but the biggest. With the ros- ter of one club, the Boston Braves, still to be double checked, we have found close to 60 players in the big leagues, giving California as their port of call during the off, season, although a few of them, like Lefty Gomez, have found the call of Broadway's bright lights stronger during the winter than California's sunny dew.
 New York and Illinois, represent ed on IA of the Is clubs, come next on the list. Texas claims repre- sentation on 13 outfits
 We have still to find a major leaguer on any roster from Colo rado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Vermont, or Wyo- ming, despite the most diligent search of the records.

HOW'D THEY GUESS IT?

The day before Jim Browning tossed the veteran Ed (Strangler) Lewis for Eds piece of the heavy weight wrestling championship, the r-skeptical metropolitan press predicted it would happen, not es- pecially because Browning is a younger and stronger grappler, but because the fans were becoming a bit weary of the elderly Strangler. \ Off. the mat Lewis is friendly and hkable. He can tell many a good yarn of the old rasslin' days. But he lacks some of the more spectacular tricks of the younger wrestling generation, the spins and slams and tackles that may not be exactly scientific, but attract the cash customers.
 Now the talk is that the bulg- ing -muscled, black haired Greek, "Jeem" Londos, greatest of all the wrestling showmen in competition, will make a comeback, toss Browning around and regain the championship" in New York.

 Juneau started off at a fast clip and maintained terrific pace throughout the game, bewildering the invaders with their speed and snappy passing. In the first quart CT the Crimson Bears ran up 12 points to 2. Kayhi settled down a bit in the next period and the play was about even, the half end ing 20 to g.
 Bears Have Basket Picnic
 There was no let-upin the attack of the home lads in the second half. That smooth working scoring combination of Henning Haglund and Behrends shagged four baskets in row to start the fireworks. Then Johnson and Blandov drop ped in a couple for Ketchikan within few seconds of each other But there was no stopping the Bears, who were on a rampage.
 Tn the final period Juneau tossed in six field goals in the first five minutes, while the best that Kayhi could garner was a lone point on a free throw by Sande. With the tally standing 45 to IT in favor of Juneau and less than three minutes to go, Coach Wentland sent in his reserves. They failed to dent the basket as Ketchikan scored six points to bring the final score to Juneau 45, Ketchikan 23.

Fewer St. Louis Boys in Baseball This Year
 than Formerly

ST. LOUIS, March 16.-For the first time in 20 years St. Louis. which brides itself on it's reputa- tion as a cradle of diamond talent, finds itself with fewer than 100 native sons in organized baseball.
 Economic conditions which com pelled numerous minor leagues to close up shop are blamed for push ing down the Mound City's repre- sentation to the new low of 88, compared with 153 year ago
 Nevertheless, St. Louis and sub- urbs continue to rank at the top in point of furnishing the national pastime with players, managers, coaches and umpires. Fourteen St. Louis products still remain in the major leagues, and two big time managers-Charley Grimm of the Cubs and Max Carey of the Dodg- St. Louis home.
 In the National league are Allyn Stout, Bill Walker and Al Fisher with the Cardinals; Andy High and Walter Roettger with Cincin- natl; Henry Meine with Pitts burgh; Linus Frey and Fresco Thompson with Brooklyn; Jim FL liott with Philadelphia; and Hu- bert Pruett with Boston.
 The American league has Mud dy" Ruel with the Browns; Chal- mers Cissell with Cleveland; Mil ton Gaston with Chicago; and John Welch with Boston.
 The Texas league, now that Ok lahoma City and Tulsa have joined the circuit, claims the biggest share of St. Louis players now in the minors.
