GYPSES TO HAVE
SttO CAMP
SAX FRANCISCO, Cal.—Romany
tribes, commonly known as “gyp
sies," are traveling toward Califor
nia from all parts of the United
States with the avowed purpose of
establishing a “sirnihatch” or per
manent sacred encampment at Em
eryville, across the bay from San
Francisco, officials of east bay cities
believe.
In possession of tribal leaders,
who came to the coast to attend the
recent marriage of Georgs Adams,
head of one tribe, and “Gypsy”
Mary, who said she was an Egyp
tian princess, were found telegrams
from headquarters of six tribes
scattered throughout the country.
These contained but two words,
“Amen avasa." or “We come!" They
I were said to be replies to a coun
try-wide call for the gathering of
( the gypsy clans.
| Not all of the gypsies are in
| eluded in the movement. The re
! sponse is confined to the more re
| ligious element, who still cling to
J the tradition that one day they
| would take the road to the land of
► promise by the "great water," the
■ ultimate home of the wanderers on
I the Pacific coast.
Fifteen thousand men and women
and their boys and girls are esti
mated to be on their way here.
Lesko Amenja, head of a Greek
gypsy band, and others have made
inquiries as to state laws on munici
pal organization, and the residents
of Emeryville are said to be appre
hensive that the gypsies will have
' sufficient voting power to take over
control of the town, now a city of
2.700 population.
The bands are reported to have
adopted a central tribal flag de
signed at Chicago by one of their
leaders. It is a green banner bear
ing the legend. “Borodiro Sivety"—
“A Greater People." Involved in
r the migration to this coast are gyp
sies of the Turkish, Rumanian. Hun
. garian, German. Moravian. Lithu
■ anian, Russian, Greek, Bohemian.
. Italian, # and Spanish tribes.

LONDON'.—Unless European pro
ductivity can be rapidly increased,
there can be nothing: but political,
moral and economical chaos finally
interpreting itself in loss of life on
a scale hitherto undreamed of. says
Herbert Hoover, former head of the
Interallied Reliaf Commission, in an
analysis of the economic situation in
Europe just published in the British
National Food Journal.
“The entire surplus productivity;
of the Western hemisphere is to
tally incapable of meeting the pres
ent deficiency in European produc
tion if it is long continued," the
analvist asserts. "Nor could cred
its be mobilized for this purpose
for more than a short period, be
cause all credits must necessarily
be simply an advance against the
return of commodities in exchange,
and credits will break down the in
stant that the return of commodi
ties becomes improbable. Further,
if such credits be obtained for more
than temporary purposes, it would
’result in economic slavery of Eu
jrope to the Western hemisphere,
and the ultimate end would be war
again.”
Mr. Hoover points out this solu
tion of the European economic prob
lem: “A vigorous realization of the
actual situation in each country of
Europe and a resolute statesman
ship based on such a realization—
the populations of Europe must be
brought to a realization that pro
ductivity must be instantly in
creased.”
In the present-day European fer
ment, Mr. Hoover says, “every eco
nomic patent medicine” has flocked
under the banner of socialism or
communism which has claimed to
speak for all the downtrodden—to
alone bespeak human sympathy.”
Experimentation in varying forms ;
of these political leanings—socialism i
and communism—has so far. in ev- I
ery case, resulted in reduced pro
duction, the food controller says.
Europe's threatened coal famine,;
the analysis says, is due “in the
largest degree to the human factor
of the limitation of effort."
Western assistance in the form
of its devotion of surplus productiv-j
ity to Europe's needs, “is a service j
that the Western hemisphere must :
approach with a high sense of hu- j
man duty and sympathy," concludes j
Mr. Hoover. "The economic burden !
on the West should not last more ,
than a year and can be carried and !
will be repaid. To effect these re- ;
suits, the resources of the Western I
hemisphere and of Europe must be ,
mobilized.”

The judge agreed.
That was early in the morning.
When 5 o’clock in the afternoon
came and the human bail was still
in the judge's keeping, there was
some judicial consternation.
Then the husband returned with
the cash and took his wife home.

OUR REASON
for paying higher prices than

not sell furs in the raw state, but
we manufacture every fur we

they are made up. We must have
nice specimens of all kinds of
furs and we will guarantee to
pay higher prices than any other
fur buyer in town. Let us prove
this to you—make a trial ship
