Wonder World of Future
Will Be Ruled by Women
Famous Novelist Predicts a Golden Age of No
Difficulties 250 Years Hence. But a New Race
of Amazons Will Run the World By Logic
'brniESitEA Queekt or the Amazcns X
QZJ&3 JOHSXZOXI W I
A world where drudgery of everyday tasks is completely eliminated by
the use of robots, an age when human intelligence has advanced so
far that the now complicated Einstein theory will be discussed and
understood in primary schools, and when 75 years "old" will be regarded
the bloom of youth. According to Owen Johnson, famous norelist
and author of the book "The Coming of the Amazons," that's the kind
of world we'll have 2S0 years from now. But there's a catch to it.
Mr. Johnson goes on to say that this wonderful world will be ruled by
a new race of Amazons powerful women who will ran governments
and industries. The man of this wonderful age wUI occupy t similar
position to the clinging vine type of female which we now associate
with the early Victorian era. And if man wants to avoid bis fate, says
j Johnson, be'll have to do' away with wars; for they always relegate
the male to the minority.
Xew York. Nov. 14. Things are
fast coming to a pretty pass for men.
and for such women as prefer the
world pretty much as it is, if the
predictions of Owen Johnson, novel
ist and cosmopolite, have any basis
in fact.
"If things keep on going as they
are now." says Mr. Johnson, "it will
take only 250 years to do away with
war, solve punishment, and elim
inate competition in business. By
that time the average intelligence
of students will be raised to the point
where the despairs of mathematics
in our day will be child's play; the
Einstein theories, long since explod
ed, will be taught in the primary
schools as scientific curiosities, and
communication with Mars and the
other planets will be as common as
the use of the telephone is with us.
Work will be done by intelligent
robots, and people will have leisure
to live as they choose, while 75 years
old will be the bloom of youth."
All this sounds like the golden
age? Yes . . . but there's a catch in
it. If you're a man you won't have
half as good a time as you do now.
For Mr. Johnson says we are com
ing to a new Age of "Woman.
In his new novel of prophecy, "The
Coming of the Amazons," Owen
Johnson tells what he imagines
women will do to men once they have
a chance. The family gone, children
raised in State nurseries, men will no
longer even have the vote. Their
place, they are told, is in the club,
where they spend their hours beau-
Cortes to Vote
Upon Alfonso's
Imprisonment
Guilt Committee Urges life Term
With All Property Seized
A Number of Arrests
Madrid Life imprisonment has
been decreed against Alfonso, last of
the Bourbons, who was indicted for
high treason by the "guilt commit
tee" of the Cortes, which presented
the report Thursday.
The supreme penalty, the report
declares, should be demanded of a
king who was responsible for disas
ter to the Spanish arms In Morocco
in 1921 in the war against the Riff
chieftain. Abdel Krim, and who bears
the burden of guilt for destruction
n the country when a military coup
d'etat placed Gen. Primo de Rivera
in power two years later.
In response to requests, however,
the committee recommends Alfonso's
penalty be commuted to life impris
onment with confiscation of his pal
aces, industrial stocks and personal
property cf all kinds found on Span
ish territory.
All of the ex-King's holdings, it is
proposed, will be said and the pro
ceeds applied prefeiab'y to alteviat-
tifying themselves for the marriage
market, with women now in the
strategic position. Mr. Johnson even
goes so far as to visualize his bro
ther of 250 years from now, beauti
ful of figure and of complexion,
launched into society much as a Park
Avenue deb is today, while seven
foot Amazons, relaxing from the
work of running their purely logical
government, pay him court and buy
him Jewelry to indulge his "mascu
line" frivolity.
If these ideas of Owen Johnson
seem too fantastic to be taken ser
iously, it may be convincing if not
exactly comforting to take a look
backward. It has happened before.
Once, men weren't even allowed to
lire in an Amazonian society in Asia
Mior, where once a year, to prevent
their race dying out, the Amazons
visited a neighboring tribe. The male
children resulting from the visit were
put to death or deported, while the
female children were kept and train
ed in welfare or agriculture. Am
azons were found even as near home
as South America 400 years ago.
If men are to save themselves from
this perpetual feminine role Mr,
Johnson says they will have to do
certain things very quickly, among
them restrict the world population
before it grows to a point where it
must go to war to make room for it
self again. For when men have de
stroyed themselves by war, says the
novelist, women will be here, ready
to take things over, and then their
day will come."
ing distress caused "by' his immoral
administrative policy." Not only Al
fonso but his entire family are de
prived of titles and dignities in
the indictment which now has been
voted on by the Cortes itself. After
ward the sentence must be approved
by the Government.
Notification of the sentence is to
be published throughout Spain and
sent officially to all foreign nations.
As it was not known that the docu
ment was to be communicated to
the House, only 100 deputies were
present when it was read out. When
the reading terminated there was
loud applause.
Meanwhile there have been a
number of arrests Including Senor
Jose Antonio de Rivera in connec
tion with an alleged monarchist plot
in the capital. It is officially ad
mitted, however, that the charges
are baseless and the son of the late
dictator was liberated after a few
hours confinement.

GANDHI TALKS OVER SEA
London Mahatma Gandhi talked
across the Atlantic ocean over a tele
phone for the first time in his life
Tuesday. He bestowed his blessings
on the American people and said he
would visit them "in God's appointed
time."
He was hurrying to keep an ap
pointment with Lady Astor when the
phone rang and the operator an
nounced that Chicago wa3 calling.
The Rev. Fred Fisher, pastor of the
First Methodist Episcopal church at
Ann Arbor, Mich., and a former mis
sionary 1n Calcutta, was on the line
and he wanted to invited Gandhi to
come to America.
"But God has not yet cleared my
way," the Indian leader said. "Be
sides, I feel that nothing important
hangs .on my going to America at
present."
Gandhi, heartened by a talk with
Prime Minister MacDonald, recon
sidered his decision to leave for In
dia Thursday and agreed to remain
until the round table conference
ended. Lord Sankey, chairman of
the conference, decided to prolong
the session another week after sev

Sheep Feeding
in State About
as Last Year
Late In shipments Serve to Reduce
' Standard cf the Larger Ship
ments of Summer.
The number of sheep on feed in
Nebraska November 1 was about
equal to the number on feed a year
ago according to E. V. Jones. Asst.
Agr. Statistician. Reduced inship
ments during October offset the large
inshipments during the period July
to September. Shipments into the
twelve north central states for the
period July to October inclusive, are
considerably larger than during the
same period in 1920.
Shipments of sheep inspected
through markets into Nebraska dur
ing July and August this year were
more than twice as large as those of
a year ago and shipments during Sep
tember were somewhat larger than
those of last year but large reduc
tions during October, usually a month
of heavy shipments, offset the in
creases shown in the early part of
the season. Complete records for the
period July to October are not yet
available but present indications
show the number on feed November
1 to be about equal to the number
on feed November 1, 1930.
Although Nebraska's corn and feed
supplies are short, ' it appears that
feeders hav maintained sheep feed
ing operations and reduced cattle
feeding operations. Operations in the
Scottsbluff district of Nebraska have
been on a reduced scale but this re
duction has lieen offset by increases
in the eastern sections of the state.
Shipments, inspected through
stock yards markets for the four
months, July to October, into the
north central states were about fif
teen per cent or 250.000 head larger
than for the corresponding period in
1930 and the largest for the period
since 1926. Direct shipments from
range states into the north central
states during the four months were
also larger this year tha nlast.
Reports on the situation as it had
developed in Colorado to the end of
October indicate a volume of feeding
in northern Colorado somewhat
smaller than last year, a decrease In
the Arkansas Valley of twenty-five
per cent or more, and for the rest of
the state a decrease of thirty to fifty
per cent.
NEBRASKA IN THIRD PLACE
Kansas City The Tanbark arena
was empty in deference to the Sab
bath, but thousands of persons
crowded the American Royal live
stock and horse show, featured by
announcement that Iowa State col

bloods from the far corners of the
nation on exhibition greeted admir

ing to give homage where homage is
due.
Officials of the show pointed to an
approximate 20 percent increase in
entries as evidence of the interest
being shown in improved livestock.
Iowa State, the judges announced,
won the judging contest from four
teen other colleges. Joseph R. Ca
puto of Iowa State also won indivi
dual honors. Second team honors
went to Michigan State.
Nebraska was third, Kansas State
fourth, Oklahoma A and M., fifth,
and Missouri sixth. Benjamin P.

HEADS OF RAILWAYS MEET
Chicago Presidents of the na

in Chicago, reportedly to discuss rec
ommendations concerning employ
ment stabilization to be presented
Thursday at a meeting in New York
between labor leaders and represen
tatives of the railroads. Railroad ex
ecutives who attended Tuesday's
meeting refused to divulge officially
the reason for the conference, or even
to tell where it was held. It has been
reported, however, that several of the
presidents would request that em
ployes accept 10 percent wage reduc
tions. Commenting on the stabilization
project, E. D. Moore, general chair
man of the Railroad Brotherhood of
Blacksmiths and Helpers and secre
tary of the Federation of Railway
Shopmen on the North Western Line,
said that shorter working hours and
more pay is the only solution. He
said that only 2,000 shopmen are
employed on the North Western at
present, compared with 12,000 in
normal times.
