NEW YORK, June 16.—Wholesale desertions from Dutch steamships in this port by sailors selzed with the lure of America have so alarmed Dutch steamship officials that an appeal for aid has been made to the immigration authorities through the Dutch consulate, it was disclosed to- day. The difficulty. say steamship offi- clals, lies in the glib tongues of agents for midwestern indusirial plants, who visit the ships when they tie up’at Hoboken and fill the Dutch sallors’ ears with golden tales of wealth to be had for the asking in the midwest factosies. - |FATHER AND SON _ PLAY FOR GOLF CUP (Continued from First Page.) a lot of beating from any Chickering also will press MacKenzio to the limit before Columbia lad hangs up his hat and calls It a day.

Bray was convicted in United States court here in June, 1922, and was fined $1.000 and sentenced to serve a year an@"d day 1a prison. He appealed to [ [ he circuit court of appeals and the finding of the district court was affirmed.

What effect the late leader’s death | will have on tke present disturbed situation in Bulgaria, allled diplo- mates were disinclined to say, but they were unanimous In the bellef that It would lead to a long perind of unsettlement and perhaps even bloodshed. For, in spite of his sudden over- throw, Stamhoullsky undoubtedly en- joyed th esteem and good will of a large part of the peasantry from which he sprang. Whether th. nation of th i his Stam need who op mpathies and indig- | e people over the fail | of their idol will lead to counter revolution, the allied officials would | {not venture to predict, but they ad- | mitted that the whole situation was | one calling for the utmost vigilance and precautionary military measures on the part of Bulgaria’s neighbors and the allies. Torn of humble parents, boulisky, who was forty-four vears of age, was entirely self-educated. An |idea of his thirst for knowledge may be gained from the fact that he mar- ried his school teacher, to whom he attributed most of his success In life, He was as rugged physically as he was mentally, and usually overawed those who_came into his presence by the very bigness of his frame. He had all the elements which In the popular mind go to make up the dictator. He stood more than six feet in height, his enormous head was covered with a wealth of black, {curly hair, his small eyes looked sharply out over an upturned, kalser- like mustache, and his tremendous jaw hinted of his unbounded energy With this formidable physique went a thundering voice. Trusted by Peasants. Before the war Stamboulisky en- gaged in journalism, but later turned his attention to politics, in which he soon rose to the leadership of the peasants, who_trusted him implicitly. When King Perdinand threw Bul- garia’s fortunes into the war on the side of Germany, Stamboulisky created a sensation’ by telling the king he would pay dearly for his folly. f you plunge this country and its peace-loving people into an unneces- sary war, sire,” he sald, “vou will pay for it with your head and your throne! The blood of the people will be upon your hands and the judgment of God upon your soul! I warn you now of your folly.” The king stood aghast, speechless and pale. “Then, regaining his com- posure, he replied curtly. “Well, others’ may lose their heads, too,”" and forthwith had Stamboulisky thrust into jail. where he remained throughout the war. ‘Wrote Books in Prison. During his incarceration he wrote a number of booke on socialism and other subjeots. When Ferdinand was dethroned in October, 1917, Stam- boulisky was liberated and called upon to save the shattered tragments of his country. He formed a cabinet and held the office of premier con- tinuously from that time until his sudden fall from power a few days ago. It was Stamboulisky's ambition to visit the United States this year in company with King Boris, but this plan was prevented by the disturbed political situation at home. In fre- quent conversations with newspaper- men he emphasized his high admira- tion of the American people and the Amerioan system of government, and said it was his wish that King Boris marry an American girl. Stamboullsky, while premier, lived in a humble cottage near Sofia, where he not only slept and had his meals, but carried on the affairs of the gov- ernment and received visitors. He was a man of great Fersonal courage, but knew that his life was constantly in danger, and he never went to bed without putting a rifle by his bed and statloning guards outside his house.

The contract wes let to the Newport Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Corporation on Febru- jary 14, 1922, twenty-three months after Judge Payne's retirement from the Shipping Board. Points to Loss of Patronage. “Mr. Lasker's statement avs nothing of the loss of $2,000,000 al- ready by his failure to get the Levia- than into commission before July 4 too late for the heavy traffic to Europe in April, May and June. He charges, however, that much of the $3,000.000,000, the merchant fleet cost, was wasted in_careless management by the Shipping Board under a democratic administration. The con- struction of the merchant fleet was under Charles M. Schwab, a republi- can, and Charles A. Diez, another republican, with J. H. Rossiter, still another republican, as director of operations. Any charge of waste- fulness is directed at them. “Chairman Lasker's assertion that criticism of this junket is unpa- triotic is a worn-out trick of re- publican politicians ‘caught with the goods. I repeat, however, that it the Leviathan junket constitutes any factor in hastening Mr. Lasker's ro- tirement from the Shipping Board the mmount expended would be dirt tcheap even though it should exceed a million dollars.” CIVIC BODIES AIDING BOYS CLUB IN SALE OF BENEFIT GAME TICKETS Rotary, Kiwanis and other leading civic organizations are uniting with the directors of the Boys' Club of Washington and endeavoring to per- suade every ome with whom they come in contact to g0 to the regular American League ball game next Thursday between the Nationals and the Cleveland Indians. Grandstand tickets are $1, and Manager Griffith of the Washington ball club has agreed to turn over the entire re- ceipts of the game, minus the net expenses, to the Boys' Club. Mr. Grifith is a director of the club and has evidenced unusual sup- port and Interest in its actlvities. For several years he has arranged to devote the proceeds of a regular game to this cause, which he terms worthy. This year he has arranged with Tris Speaker, who is vitally Interested in the ' education, both physical and mental, of the youth of today, to play a scheduled game for the benefit of Washington youth. The net expensess of the game also have been trimmed unusually low In order that every available dollar may_ go into the treasury of the Boys' Club for much needed improvements and expansion. The fan can help matters along very nicely if he will buy his ticket at 512 11th street. He also will be pre- sented with the proposition there of purchasing eleven tickets for $10, which offer has been made with the object of making up parties for the game. | al | | Llawellyn | IND. C.
