TAKE ACTION TO SAVEABORIGINES Australians Are Faced With Dying Race Problem.’ Bu United Press SYDNEY, July 6. — The-- only color problem which Australia has to handle at present is the saving of the remnants of the aborigines. The civilization of the white man has made heavy inroads upon their numbers. The aborigines cannot tackle work as whites understand it. They are a naturally indolent people, who believe that hunting food is the only aim in life. A l tie band of enthusiasts in Adelaide have evolved a scheme by which thev hope lo further the welfare of the aborigines. They have drawn up a petition for presentation to the Federal Parliament, asking for the reservation of land in some part of the establishment for a model aboriginal state. The petition asks that this model state should ultimately be managed ty a native tribunal, as far as possible. according to native laws and customs, but prohibiting cannibalism and cruel rites. At some future time, it la suggested, the administrator himself should be a native, but meantime such assistance as may be necessary should be Xirovided. The aboriginal races, it is pointed out, are fast dying out because among other raisons, well meant and costly experiments in their Interests have not been on the right ■lines.

START FEDERAL PROBE OF STRIKE (Continued From Page 1) the meeting than the Monday morning at which the strike was voted, cheered the strikers. President Harry Boggs, and Parker and Armstrong spoke, urging continued orderliness and warning of the vigilance of police. "There Is only one thing for us to do," said Boggs, "and that is to obey the law. "This way we will awaken the phblic to the fact that we are not a crowd, of trouble-makers, bus a group of decent workmen striving with our only weapon to get justice in compensation and working conditions. Company Worried "The company is worried. At 3 a m. this morning it sent its bosses to the homes of many of our members in efforts to get them to return to work.” - He introduced three men who said they had been awakened and asked to return. “There are others here, too," Boggs interrupted, "but it is nothing gained to discuss it.” He Armstrong, * who pleaded with the men not to put ft blot on the association's name by breaking the laws. He said it was gratifying to see more men at the meeting than attended the Monday morning meeting. Parker when referring to the working agreement the company says the men signed to get employment, said: "The judge says you signed a contract. Now some judges make mistakes. Judge Wetter in police court said I operated a blind tiger. He fined me SIOO and gave me thirty days in jail. But the judge higher up said I didn't, so you see Judges can be mistaken. “It would be better toT everybody if we had a higher type of judges." Shouts and applause drowned him out for five minutes. "We have absolute connection between the Indianapolis' Street Rail-way-Company and the police department,’’ Parker continued, “but I'm not going to expose it here, because I want to get some of that $260,000." ‘Parker and Armstrong b a >'e sued the board of safety alleging malicious prosecution. When they came here to organize the union they were arrested fifty-three times for vagrancy, they alleged, but never were convicted.' Another meeting will be held Wednesday morning. Parker rejoiced In the fact that Monday was the first day he and Armstrong had not been followed by detectives and street car company employes since their arrival in Indianapolis two months ago. The two company men assigned to the roles of shadowers were 'put to work operating street cars, Parker said. Signs were posted in all car barns promising workers a fiat bonus of $2 a day for the period of the strike. The workers were instructed to keep cars moving at all costs, and not to fight back if attacked. They also were Instructed not to engage in arguments with anybody.
