Decree.
In the proceedings against the un-
known author OF the pamphlet
Bloody May Days in Berlin issued
by Werner Hirsch, Internationaler
Arbeiteryerlsg, Berlin, for high trea-
son and endangering the public peace,
the application Of the Dresden pub
lie prosecutor for confiscation Of the
pamphlet mentioned is hereby con-
coded.
The contents Of the pamphlet men
toned, the distribution Of which is
for payment and, in certain instances,
free of charge, more or less openly in
cites for a violent change in the con-
stitution Of the German Reich and
different classes Of the population are
melted to commit violence against
one another-in a manner which en-
dangers the public peace.
Thus on page 81:
'Zoergiebel acted upon the in
struction of Social Democracy Zoer-
giebels crime was not an individual
crime. However much this man who,
like NOske, seems to represent the
old-time type of the Prussian SER
geant, and was qualified for his role
of the bloodhound by his unscrupu-
lous brutality as well as his coarse
and narrow minded ignorance-the
question Of the workers blood split
during these Berlin May days can
never be merely regarded as a ques-
ton for Zoergiebel, alone.

WHAT'S GOING ON

Tie present-day teaching by scien-
lists concerning the inside of the bali

Its temperature Is about 5000 de-
grees centigrade, which is somewhat
above that of the surface of the sun
But this core is likewise quite rigid.

Outside the core is an intermediate

also dense, heavy and rigid. This is
surrounded In turn by a second shell,
all silicate, and about 500 miles thick.
1t likewise has a high temperature.

the outer edge is inclined to be glass

in spoutings from volcanoes and Gre
ates molten lava lakes is, in a man

develops where the pressure is 30
small that material has a chance to
melt and break through the outer
rock.
There are several bases for this
theory, because, of course, the whole
thing Is theory, since nobody except
a few heroes of fiction ever have seen
what Is inside our common mother.
Among those reasons are the known
weight of the globe, the naturally
compressIve force of gravitation, the
constant shape of the earth. the COM

sumed to be fragments of exploded
worlds; and the very evident shall

Food for Wild Fowl Is
Improving, Say Reports

E%elgrass, the staple food of G
brant and an important forage plant
for Canada geese and black ducks,
seems to be coming back In some
sections of Its Atlantic coast range,
where serious shortages have &C.
Cured recently, reports the bureau
of biological survey, Of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Eelgrass has In the past regained
Its abundance after similar short
ages.
In some parts Of Its range from
Labrador to North Carolina, the
eelgrass apparently disappeared dur
ing 1881 and 1882, and In other sec
tions the supply dwindled seriously.
Effects of this shortage on wild
fowl, however, have not been 80
severe as was feared, the birds hav-
ing turned to some extent to other
sources of food. Brant populations
may have been reduced by decreases

Because of the great Importance
of eelgrass to wild fowl, the bio

studies of the shortage, but the
cause has not yet been determined.

Heavy Pigs Grow Faster

The birth weight Of pigs has an
important bearing in weight for the
first six months, the United States
Department of Agriculture found
after observing 1929 hogs at Its x
pertinent station at Miles City,
Mont, during the fve-year period,
beginning In 1927 and ending In
1881.
The department found that the
pigs varied In weight at birth from
one and a half pounds to four
pounds, with most of them weighing
from two and a half to three pounds.

Japanese Foreign Office An
nounces Negotiations Under
Way in Peiping.
BY the Associated Press.

oy tAC AooOSAasCo GfCoos
TOXIC, May 1.-The Japanese for
eign ONCE disclosed today that Chinese
leaders were seeking through American
and British Ministers in Peiping to ne
gotiate Sino-Japanese armistice.
Of1cial reports were received that
certain Chinese approached both Mel
son T. johnson, the United States Min
lister. and Sir Miles Lampson, the Brit
ish Minister, proposing that they assist
in opening negotiations.
Neutral Zone Desired.
A meeting between Sino-J Japanese
military leaders for the purpose Of de-
Gliding on an armistice and establishing
neutral zone south Of the Great Wall
Of China is desired.
The report admitted that these Chi
nese are not connected with Marshal
Chang Kai-Shek, the virtual dictator of
the Nationalist government at Nanking,
or his Peiping representative, Gen. Ho
Ying-Ching.
The Japanese have demanded that
the triangular area between the Lwan
River and the Great Wall, extending 60
miles along the coast and 100 miles in
land, and 10-mile strip for another
100 miles inland, be made a neutral
zone. This is territory in North China
proper.
The japanese Army, which advanced
as far as the Ivan River and has Just
withdrawn again to the Wall on the
coast, will make repeated drives over
that area, military leaders said, until
the Chinese agree to neutralize the zone.
Held Joint Operator,
Manchukuo became joint operator
after Manchuria was seized from Chi
nese rule by the japanese Army and the
new state established.

fair because they were concluded in q

which Russia allegedly took full advan-
tage.
