timrs there may be one firm center
in the country."
The archduke then entered the
'chamber where the meeting was be
ing held and after a short speech by
Premier Friedrich the ministers took
th oath to the archduke. He asked
them to do their utmost to support
him during Hungary's reconstruc
tion. Allies O. K. Government.
' Geneva (via Berne), Aug. 9 The
inter-allied mission at Budapest,
after a conference with Archduke
Joseph and Premier Friederich, has
orwarded to M. Clemenceau, pres
ident of the peace conference, a
report to the effect that the entente
representatives are in full accord
with new Hungarian government of
. fieials, according ,o Vienna dis
patches received Ijere.
It is reported that in view of

,. over Budapest, dropping thousands
of placards bearing Premier Clem

tken prohibited telegraph service be
tween Budapest aBd Vienna for 12
hours.
The Hungarian proletariat and
bourgeoisie have expressed fears

are openly championing the mon
archist ideal.
- - AirjiJnes last night dropped pla
cards over Budapest proclaiming
"King Joseph." ,
i The social democrats are much
v averse to having the reins of gov
ernment in the hands of Archduke
Joseph and it is improbable that any
socialist wiH participate in his government.

gary with representatives of the
bourgeoise, peasants and workmen
will be formed shortly, it is under

. four generals to supervise the situa
tion in Budapest has had a depress
ing effect upon the Roumanians.

Is Discovered In Berlin

nounces the discovery of an exten

STOCKYARDS MEN
VOTE TO RETURN
TO JOBS MONDAY
Withdrawal of Militia and
Deputy Sheriffs Satisfies
Workers in Chicago
and Ends Strike.
Chicago, Aug. 9. Striking stock
yards workers have decided to re
turn to work Monday. Withdrawal
of the militia from the yards Friday
and of the deputy sheriffs Saturday
was satisfactory to the men.
The decision, if adhered to, will
remove a serious situation that had
promised to become a general strike
with resultant reduction of meat
products for a large part of the na
tion with a possible increast in
prices.
In some quarters it had been be
lieved the union leaders would de
mand a closed shop with discharge
of 9,000 negroes not members of the
unions. About 3,000 negroes are
said to be members of the unions.
The stock yards were placed un
der guard of militia and police dur
ing the race riots last week, when
numerous race clashes occurred in
the neighborhood.
The return of negroes to work
two days ago was followed by 3
strike of union workers. The unioi
leaders, however, said the presence
of armed guards was the cause of
the strike.
The militia was withdrawn yester
day. Chief of Police Garrity de
clared the 500 policemen would re
main on duty in the vicinity of the
stock yards to prevent any recur
rence of racial trouble.
The larger packing companies had
been crippled by the walkout, but
had said they were operating to
day on a 50 per cent basis. While
many of the smaller companies were
seriously affected, the "big five" re
ported not many more than 10,000 of
their men were out.
Union officials had claimed 36,500
men had walked out.
Bandit Surrenders.
Washington, Aug. 9. President
Carranza has advised the Mexican
embassy here that the bandit chief.
Roberto Jameson, has surrendered
to Mexican forces in Coahuila and
that bandits in the Tamesi river
region have been attacked by gov
ernment troops which recovered 86
horses and more than 200 head of
cattle.
Says 5,000,000 Jews
Will Go to Palestine
(CWlaned tram Pa( On.)
paid to the immense and wonderful
support given to resettlement of
Palestine by the Jews of New York
and of America in general.
"These tributes came not only
from the Jews but from the Arabs,
Syrians and Circassians who are
equally benefited by the movement.
"America is the beacon light to
those people. It stands for big
things; for absolute political unself
ishness or ambitions."
Speaking of the practical difficul
ties in the resettlement of Pales
tine, Mr. De Haas said:
Improvement Gradual.
"The improvement of agriculture
in Palestine will be gradual and
slow, but sure, and there are possi
bilities for incidental industries. The
rainfall in Palestine is about the
same as in London, but it falls be
tween October and February.
"Since the time of the Romans
there has been no attempt at con
servation except by private cisterns.
We see possibilities of water con
servation for private homes as well
as for municipal and irrigational
purposes.
"At present the great difficulty of
settling Palestine lies in the preva
lence of malaria, which has spread
over the whole country through
the movement of troops who are
carrying it with them from the
swamps.
"We must drain the country and
sanitate it. Proper sanitation will
cost the Zoinists more than $1,000,
OOOat the present time we are
sending $25,000 monthly there for
medical purposes.
"Our American Zionist medical
unit saved Jerusalem from an epi
demic of malaria. But we must
sanitate the country that is the
first thing. We are going to do it
with voluntary funds just as it was
done in Panama.
"This must be emphasized the
modem exploitation of Palestine
will not spoil the historical places.
We have no thought of touching
biblical grounds. On the contrary,
we want to do everything to pre
serve them keep them sacred and
enhance them."
Mr. De Haas added:
"We shall get trenmendous sup
port for our scheme of reviving the
ancient gtery of the Jewish race. It
;s agreed among authorities on
Palestine that Haifa will be the
principal port. All of us think so.
It has all th'j natural advantages
and serves all Palestine. Our visit
to the Hold Land has opened our
eyes. The Jews are going home at
last."
A deposit of chrome ore that is
being developed in Rhodesia is be
lieved to be the richest in the world.

Truth Is Our Principle
Our Bu iness Policy is MUCH LITTLE,
Rather Than LITTLE MUCH
The man who was truthful from principle opened the
eyes of the man who became truthful from policy. But you
can never trust the sort of a man who becomes truthful
from policy, for temporary gain often keeps him from see
ing policy.
One price ancj no commissions, the Oakford Plan, is the
only truthful way to sell pianos. It means telling the truth
to every one. The dealer who varies his price on the same
piano to different customers, certainly does not tell each
customer the truth about quality. A falsehood about price
makes a falsehood about quality as sure as two plus two
are four.
The fact that we do not pay commissions is one reason
our prices are uniformly the lowest in the United States.
The other reason is found in our business policy. We be
lieve that to make big profits on a few pianos is a short
sighted policy. To make a small profit on each one of a
great number of sales insures permanency. "Volume gains
momentum, and momentum gains volume."
The benefit from our principle, and policy, is mutual
yours and ours. Let's get together. We are factory dis
tributors for the Steinway, Weber, Steck, Wheelock and
Stroud Pianola Pianot, alio Conover, Cable, Haddorff,
Clarenden, Wellington and Kingsbury Piano.
Of special interest just now are the many fine bar
gains to be had in our great sale of used and returned
from rent stock.
