TRANSYLVANIA
TENDERS KING
A BIG OVATION
PREDEAL, Rumania, June 2 (Cor
respondence of the Associated Press).
—King Ferdinand and Queen Marie
received an ovation and were show
ered with flowers at every railway
station in Transylvania when a few
days ago they made their formal entry
into that country as sovereigns. For
nearly four hundred years Transyl
vania has been under the foreign yoke,
yet everywhere the Rumanian sover
eigns were received with acclaim and
hailed with joy. The day was made
a national holiday.
In every city and town through
which the royal party passed were
such signs as “Long live your majesty,
emperor of all Rumania,” “Long live
the royal family” and “Long live our
sovereign.”
The journey was made partly by
train and partly by automobile. At
Ardeal, which is the first town in
Transylvania beyond the Rumanian
border, Dr. M. Braiulescu, representing
the local government, declared to
King Ferdinand that the Rumanian
people had long waited for the mo
ment when their sovereign would cross
the threshold of Transylvania and re
deem the country from bondage of the
Austro-Hungarians. He assured the
king that the people of Transylvania
were as one in their devotion and loy
alty to him, and that they all hailed
the day of their liberation from the
foreign oppressor and their unity
with their brother Rumanians.
In reply the king expressed his warm
thanks and said he would have for
the inhabitants of Transylvania the
same affection and attachment he had
for all people of Rumania, and that he
knew he could count with confidence
upon their support in carrying out the
purposes and plans of Greater Ru
mania.
At JNagyvaraa the kina and queen
were given a reception that left no
douht in the minds of observers that
taking Transylvania by the Rumanians
was genuinely welcomed by the people,
even by those of non-Latin origin.
Thousands of persons were gathered
at the railway station and along the
principal streets and shouted terms of
affection at their majesties as they
passed in their automobiles.
The city was gaily decorated with
flags, banners and lithographs of the
king and queen, and on the principal
streets triumphal arches were erected.
Elaborate ceremonies were held in
the churches, and chimes were rung
and whistles blown as the royal pro
cession entered the town. As an in
dication of their loyalty and patriot
ism thirty thousand native Transylva
nians marched in a great parade which
was reviewed by their majesties.
In the evening a great banquet was
given by the civil authorities in honor
of the king and queen. Representa
tives of the clergy, learned professions,
schools, universities and patriotic so
cieties were present and pledged to
the king, on behalf of their people, un
swerving loyalty and support.
King Ferdinand was deeply touched
at the cordiality of the receptions
everywhere along the route. To the
Associated Press correspondent he
said:
“It is a source of great happiness to
___ ■■■ -
me and to the queen to find ourselves
in the minds of the Rumanian people
of Transylvania and the Banat who
have long waited for this great hour
of their liberation and of their national
unity. All of the emotion and enthu
siasm with which they received the
first sovereign of all the Rumanians
not only is the best recompense for
all of our struggles and sufferings but
also a guarantee of the link which in
the Great Rumania will bind together
the people and the dynasty. I do not
doubt that the peace conference will
ratify the right of my people to a com
plete unity.”
MONOPOLIES WILL BE
INVESTIGATED BY THE
BRITISH GOVERNMENT
LONDON, June 16 (by mail).—The
committee on trusts appointed by the
British minister of reconstruction has
now prepared its report on what ac
tion may be necessary to safeguard
public interest in view of the probable
growth of trade organizations and
combinations.
The American Chamber of Com
merce in London understands that the
committee’s recommendations are of
a moderate character, being chiefly
that the Board of Trade should estab
lish tribunals for investigating the op
erations of monopolies, combines and
trusts, recommendations then to be
made to the government for action to
remedy any abuses.
All members of the committee are
believed to have signed the report, but
it is understood that three of the com
mittee members have submitted an
addendum expressing the view that
the business world is no longer gov
erned by free competition, but that
capitalist combination influences the
price of practically every commodity
sold to the public.
They recommend, therefore, that
the Board of Trade should establish
a trusts and combinations department
to draw up a program to protect the
community against the evils of mo-1
nopolies and to secure for the public
a larger share of the economic benefits
which may result from the better or
ganization of industry.

I “And my
GOODRICH Shoes I
outwore Six pairs of his”
He is an old timer—been in Alaska for 21
\ years—and just back in the States. He
i j was visiting the Goodrich Factory and we
asked him, of course, if he ever used our
Goodrich “Hi-Press” Boots and Shoes
' while he was up there, and he said—
“Say, those are some shoes you people make,
i Why, I remember one time when my part
ner and I went over the hills and I wore a
i pair of your Goodrich White Pacs. He
r didn’t! And he wore out six pairs before
we got back—I still wore my first pair.”
► There’s the result of making Goodrich
( Rubber Footwear the new way,—IN ONE
j SINGLE PIECE—rubber tough as steel—
no leaking, no peeling, no half-soling. And
they’re comfortable—feel like oid shoes
before you’ve worn them 24 hours.
; We make all kinds.—shoes, boots, shorts
and hip, for mining, fishing, logging, pros
pecting, etc. They always have “The Red
Line ‘Round The Top.”
