Friendliness is Dominant Note Astrakhan, Dec. 5.?Friendliness to < he stranger, especially the American, ( is the dominent note the traveller s finds in passing here. Both the Reds ? unj the Whites, possessed of the hos- ? pitable "wide nature" of the Rus- < siati, forget their own tniseiies long i I enough to oblige the stranger. < In Astrakhan, the correspondent was taken at face value. There wf.h i : no summoning before the "Cheka", c r 1 police, to examine his papers. On | ilie contrary, a "Cheka" ageni made sure that passage was available on an up-river steamer. The chief steward of the steamer, who carried on a brisk business sell! ng soups and sandwiches to the peasj ant passengers, turned his kitchen inside out in his alacrity to provide i meals for the stranger. "I haven't had a foreigner for a passenger since : the war began," he said.

Only Active Volcano In United State' Redding, Cal., Dec. 20!?Eruptions i .u e not liable to occur at Lassen i'oak, the only active volcano in th Cnnod States proper, as long as th: .Mountain continues to emit smok-. ainl steam, as it is now doing, according to M. E. Littmar, geologist .nd authority on conditions in th: ! .asscn section here. | J littmar, known as the 4 father'' oi ..assen National Park, which include; he volcano and the country surj . ounding it, recently returned froir .11 extensive otur over the section. The action of the volcano, the gc ilogist declared, is similar to that ol i steam boiler. As long as steam can escape there is not any danger of at explosion but if the steam is contineo | nd cannot escape, the pressure grad ! ually increases until finally the boi t blows up, just as the top of the j fountain blows off if gas and steam aside is confined. There is a great deal of steam art j vns coming from cracks in the mour. tain, Dittmar reported. Before thf big eruption in 1915 there was very 'ittle steam emitted. \ Several geysers have made theii ippcarance since the eruption ir. what is known as the Devil's Kitchen, one of the noted spots in the- park In the Devil's Kitchen there are be 'ween 700 and 800 active hot springs boiling mud craters and geysers vithin an area of twenty-five acres Some of the geysers force boiline vater several feet into the air an 'Oct steam to a height of several undrod feet.

Five persons were killed and four wounded by troops j who were called out during an attack j on the police station in the Mousky | quarter this morning. The troops opI ened a heavy fire on the rioters. One rioter was killed and another i in hired at Suez Sundav. and two riot i Ts were killed and two wounded at | Port Said. Naval units are stationed i at Suez, Ismalia, Port Said and Alex | andrin. Minor accounts of sabotage j 'o telegraph and telephone communi' ations are reported in lower Egypt. A majority of the government ofii ials have decided to go out on strike j but it. is not expected that they will J remain out long. Cairo is without local means of transportation, even ! he cabs suspending service on ac| count of the attacks by ruffians ?:?-' j in the day. It is estimated that thus far 14 per sons have been killed and about 40 wounded in the Cairo district. The j French and Italian consuls are report! ed to have made a protest to th' i authorities aginst the attacks on th ! property of their nationals during tin. ; rioting. Alexandria, Dec. 26.?Slight disturbances occurred here today. Kou hundred agitators have been arrest; .?d in this city since the trouble be' gan.

Germans Employed in Russia Berlin, Dec. 27.?Five thousand airman soldiers, many of them otti:ers of high rank, crossed into Russia shortly after the war and were nther absorbed in attempts to. carry ,>n some sort of trade or were given employment in the Red -army. Thoy I :?re trade scouts whoVarebeingcount ed on to-form- ae powerful-factor-in the parleys'.which ouuat follovt. es= tablishment of stable commercial relations. Scores of Germans are employed by the Russian government -in technical capacities, and others are living with the Soviets against the day they can resume the big prospective commercial fight which-would follow a change of government- or a recognition of the Soviet rule. Big business men in Germany are turning to Russia in the hope that stabilization of the government and exploitation of the resources of that country will help save Central Europe from an economic chaos which many profess to believe lies only a few months ahead. Hugo Stinnes, the most powerful financial figure in Germany, whose pre-war interests in Russia were extensive, holds that Gorman industrialists must deal with Russia to save themselves and possibly the old world from industrial stagnation. Felix Deutsch, director general o' the German General Electric company, which had vast investments in Russia, has endeavored recently to arrive at some agreement with the Russians for the operation of the company's properties there. Walter Rathenau, nominal head o" :he board of directors of the Germai General Electric company, is reported to share the views of Stinnett and Deutsch that Germany cannot much longer neglect her Russian advantages. German manufacturers have had the lion's share of Russian trade since the conclusion of peace and they have dealt on a cash basis. Thousands of tons of merchandise have been shipped into the Soviet country, but disorganization of Russian railroad traffic $arly in the win tor hit the Germans a hard blow. s.nd forced them to store many trait loads of goods on the northwest frontiers. \flfects Relations Between Japan and United States Honolulu, T. H., Dec. 28.?Misconduct on the part of Japanese laborers in Hawaii will affect vitally not only tr.eir interests here but the relations itween the United States and Japan, Ciior.osuke Yada, consul-general of Japan here, told the Hawaii Laborers' association, formerly the Japanese Federation of Labor, at the annual convention, acording to the translaiion of his address made by Nippu Jiji, JapamCe language newspaper. Consul General Yada reiterated his disapproval of the activities of Japanese strike leaders who called the suar plantation strike here a year ago rid urged the laborers to exert their tmost efforts to increase the sugar production of the islands. am in sympathy with labor but em opposca to any attempt to proTote the interest of labor by taking ?. hostile attitude toward capitalists," Consul Yada was quoted as saying, If you had not struck last year you i. ght have been able to get belter '.oncOFsions from the planters now. when they have reduced your wages. In Hawaii the employer is American and the employed is Japanese. The conditions are such that you cannot get advantageous concessions through waging industrial warfare. "Any blunderous conduct on your part will incur the resentment of the planters and naturally there will be race prejudice and ill feeling between Americans and Japanese. The plantation strike last year is directly responsible for the partial success of the plan to import Chinese coolies 'rto the territory. "Appreciate the American civilization established in Hawaii," he concluded. "Tthink of the times and the changes they are undergoing; open your eyes and read the Japanese newspapers carefully if you cannot read the English jtapers and have foremost in your mind peaceful cooperation between Americans and Japanese." The advice and principles enunciated by Consul-General Yada, however, were practically rejected by the passage of a resolution, which, according to the Nippu Jiji translation, declared thnt "The views of Mr. Yada consul-general for Japan, on the past and present of the various organizations centering around the Hawaii Labobers' association and on their movement, widely differ from the conviction of our organization in that they do not agree with facts. Therefore, without adhering to the consul-general's argument, the delegates "conic rence hereby declares that it will abide by the principle of capital-labor cooperation and enforce it in accordance with its convictions."
