L~Ongshoremen Re-
ject Compromise;
Employers to Force

SAN FRANCISCO.-(FP)-An ag-
reement signed by the Waterfront En-
ployers Union, the Industrial Assn,
Mayor Rossi of San Francisco and
Init. Pres. Joseph P. Ryan Of the In
Il. Longshoremen's Assn. and two
other l. L. A. officials has been al
most unanimously rejected by a secret
ballot OF the Pacific coast members OF
the l. L. A.
The compromise plan to settle the
strike which has tied up Pacific coast
shipping since May 9 provided for joint
control and support of the hiring halls
by the shippers and the longshoremen,
recognized the l.. L. A. principle OF
collective bargaining, no discrimina-
ton for or against membership in any
union and established a labor relations
committee of three workers and three
employers to arbitrate wages, hours,
and working conditions.
The Industrial Assn, through its
president, Robert Forbes, has annou-
need that it has accepted the challenge
Of Pres. ]. w. Maillard of the San
Francisco Chamber of Commerce and
will open the port by force of arms.
This has brought a cali for a gen.
eral strike vote in San Francisco. Ia
coma and Portland have already voted
a general strike if troops are called.
Disturbances seem inevitable. A San
Francisco strikebreaker was shot re-
Gently and a brick was hurled at the
engineer of a police launch. -Four out
breaks on the Oakland docks were re-
PEELED by police with tear gas.
A resolution asking that relief be
withdrawn from families of strikers
has been passed by the City and County
Federation of Women's Clubs. The
Women's Auxiliary Of the l. L. A. pro-
tested this action and asked that the
federation permit the auxiliary mem
bers to address it on the grounds for
the strike.
international support to the strike
was given when instructions were re-
ceived by Swedish and Dutch seamen
whose ships are in port not to load
cargoes. The order came from their
respective unions in response to a cab
le from the l. L. A.

utilized to grow his plant. Permits
for the importation Of seeds, seedlings
and cuttings of this species of poin-
settia have been granted by the De-
partment Of Agriculture to bring the
plant from its native Mexico.
Grow Six to Eight Feet.
Pitman says the plants may be set
out 20 inches apart in each direc-
tion, but that 40 inches is rec
commended. The plants will attain a
height Of from six to eight feet by
harvest time, after eight months, and
each will yield from pound ounces
to pound ounces of serum, of which
between 80 and IS per cent is dry
rubber.
The rubber consumption of this
country during 1888 was 405, ,689 long
tons, or 98,743,360 pounds. Should
America cultivate sufficient of its own
crop to supply this demand, more than
10000 acres of sandy soil will be re-
quired.
Rubber is now quoted at close to
80 cents per pound f. o. b. New York,
and under the British agreement bids
to reach maximum of 81 per pound.
The domestic rubber described by
Pitman, under which the treating
chemicals may be reclaimed, can be
sold to the manufacturer at a cost
not to exceed cents per pound and
remain profitable to the grower Of
rubber poinsettia.
Applications for patents to protect
Pitman's processes have been filed by
Adams. Adams also plans to file
similar patents in all of the subtropical
countries of the world.

planted in poinsettia beginning Feb
ruary !, according to Pitman.
6,001.65 Pounds an Acre Yield.
In the series of experiments he
conducted, Pitman found that his
particular plant can produce under
ordinary cultivation 6,O0165 pounds
of crude rubber per acre in eight
months. In India and the Dutch
East Indies rubber plantations on
which ordinary para trees are planted
Is by 20 feet apart, only 1900 pounds
can be harvested after 10 years
growth.
The plant can be raised in any
parts of North America within 80 de-
grees of the equator, which means
that Florida, Texas, Southern Cali
fornia and small parts of Georgia,
Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana
are potential crop sources of the new
rubber plant.
Pitman has no hopes nor desire to
exploit the product in these States,
but realizes admittedly that it has
potentialities If war should involve
the United States That. he says. was
his ambition when he began his ex-
periments.
Adams, the attorney, says both me-
chanical and chemical patents will be
necessary to protect Pitman. Pitman,
on the other hand. has made no pre-
tention that he has found possible
source of rubber to Offset the importa-
tions into this country to meet the
ordinary demand of the rubber and
tire industry.
There are potentialities that if Pit

Rabbi Louis L. Mann, DR.. Morris
Fishbein editor of the American

Detectives certain to transmit their

compulsory only when there is no
other way to safeguard society,"" DR..
Mann said
AT present the compulsory policy
is difficult to justify" DR.. FiShbein
remarked.
The true scientists observe the
evidence and are willing to continue
a policy of watchful waiting, while
Germany and other Fascist nations
use their scientists for the promotion
of political experiments on a psuedo-

eminent. They were followed, in 1852. by the
issues of United States notes commonly known
as legal tenders" or "greenbacks."
At THIS period it was the practice when
n the securities were printed, to forward
them to the Treasury Department in WASH
ington for the signatures of the register Of the
Treasury and the Treasurer Of the United
States, and for the affxing Of the SEAL while
the trimming and separating Of the sheets were
also done by the department before the securi-
ties were put into circulation. In this way the
bureau started to grow.
At first the signatures were inscribed by q
CORDS of clerks, and the notes were trimmed
and the separating Of the sheets done by shears.
in the ordinary way. But the ever-increasing
demand for the notes made this slow process
out of the question, it was impossible for
the workers to keep pace with the needs of the
Government, and, besides this, the system was
unnecessarily expensive. Another thing which
had to be overcome and which, by the way,
was unintentionally aiding the counterfeiters,
was the dissimilarities in the signatures, due to
the various handwritings employed In complet-
ing the notes.
Congress- in March, 1862, came to the rescue
Of the Treasury Department and granted per.
mission for it to imprint the facsimile sigma
lures from engraved plates. The result Of this
experiment was 50 successful that the idea was
conceived of doing all the printing and en-
craving in the Treasury Building, and, accord
ingly, the act of July II, 1862 before referred
to, was passed.
From the beginning, the printing Of the sig
natures the trimming and separting Of the
sheets and other necessary operations were
done in separate departments, and one Of the
earliest moves was to consolidate these into
one division, known as the first division of the
National Currency Bureau which was later
changed to its present name. but apparently
was retained at least until 1866, when we find
