ORDER ARREST OF CATALONIA MAYORS BY VIRGILO COLCHIRA M. S. Staff Correspondent) MADRID, Sept. 18.—The military directory today ordered the arrest of virtually all the mayors in Catalonia. Most all are friends of Gen. Primo Rivera, head of the revolutionary government and captain-general of Catalonia. Two generals have been appointed to supervise the prosecution of former foreign minister Alba, who has fled to Biarritz. Contrary reports were current regarding Senator Alba. One was that he had sent a letter to Gen. Primo Rivera saying he would never return because he believed Spain would become a country like Mexico with frequent revolutions. Another was that he had promised to come back if granted a speedy and impartial trial. A. P. Moore, the American ambassador, believes the new government will achieve success. Spanish circles quote him as saying Spain has not had such a strong government in 25 years. King Alfonso has signed the decree establishing 46,000 Somatenes, an organization similar to the Fascist in Italy, or the home guards established in the United States in wartime. The king also signed a decree suppressing ministerial under-secretaries, thus saving the treasury 3,527,000,000 pesetas annually. Former Premier Albucemas is still in Spain. He has not been arrested. The first formal meeting of the military directory will be held tomorrow. The king will preside. He will address a warning to labor not to obey agitators who are trying to exploit the present situation in Spain. MALE CHORUS WILL PREPARE CONCERTS The Fullerton male chorus, composed of 24 business men living in the northern part of Orange county, has entered on its second season, it was announced today by Prof. Thos. Askin, dramatic director of Fullerton high school, who has supervision. 2500 PRESSMEN IN NEW YORK STRIKE NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—Declaring the strike illegal and without sanction by the international union, George L. Berry, president of the International Printing Pressmen's Union of North America, today voiced the determination of the union to "execute and publish" the newspapers of New York city. NEW YORK, Sept. 18.—A strike of 2500 pressmen today practically tied up every newspaper in the city. The walkout was the culmination of 18 months' strife over wages and working conditions. Last year's award by Judge Martin B. Manton, federal arbitrator, has been the bone of contention. The pressmen decided finally not to abide by its terms. A new agreement was to have been submitted to members of the local union of the International Web Pressmen's Union last night by Maj. George L. Berry, but Berry could not be found at the time promised and a strike vote was immediately taken. Conferences with representatives of the pressmen were planned this morning, publishers hoping to effect an agreement in time to issue afternoon editions. As a result of the walkout, many early editions were eliminated altogether. Others were considerably curtailed. News was boiled to a minimum. Advertisements were slashed, and many thousands of dollars' worth were rejected. The strike, publishers said, was totally unexpected and was called despite instructions of the international union that the men remain at work pending the conclusion of negotiations for a new contract. Major Berry today declined to comment on the strike. He said he did not know when he would submit the new agreement to publishers and pressmen.

Debs, socialist leader and only recently freed by executive clemency from a federal prison, had a dramatic meeting in the state prison here today with Thomas Mooney, San Francisco labor leader, who was convicted of complicity in the San Francisco preparedness day bombing. Debs was permitted to talk to Mooney for 30 minutes by prison authorities. Mooney was in charge of literature on the famous "red" special on which Debs toured the country a number of years ago as the socialist candidate for president. They exchanged prison reminiscences. They embraced as they parted, and both were near tears. Debs pledged Mooney the support of labor in an effort to secure the freedom of the San Francisco labor leader.

SCIENTIST TALKS ON SUN'S CORONA LOS ANGELES, S6pt. 18—The answer to the question, "What is the sun's corona?" was made a part of an address delivered today by Dr. W. W. Campbell, president of the Univ. of Calif., and director of Lick Observatory, before the Pacific division of the Association for the Advancement of Science, now in convention here. Observations of light of the corona made with the spectrograph and polargraph show that the inner corona is made up partly of gaseous and partly of solid or liquid particles, which are shining on their light, he said. They are incandescent because of their proximity to the sun's heated surface. Dr. Campbell also stated that the sun is losing mass, although so slowly that it will be millions of years before the observer on earth can detect any change in its appearance. Other prominent scientists who spoke at the session were Dr. S. A. Mitchell of McCormick Observatory, University of Virginia, Dr. Charles E. St. John of Mt. Wilson Observatory, Passdena, and Dr. R. J. Trumpler of Lick Observatory.

STUDY OIL ZONE AND TAX DRAFTS Councilmen met in a long session today to go over a new license ordinance and to draft a city oiloning ordinance. The ordinance fixing special tax on business and professional men covers 35 typewritten pages, and is planned to increase the city's revenues from this source. Last year's city collected $11,526.50 from licenses. Before the session, individual councilmen stated they planned to make a rather strict oil leasing ordinance with the idea in mind that it might be modified later by council or by referendum if that was desired. "We want to protect the city as far as possible, at least until after oil development has passed the wildcat stage," said Councilman Godfrey Stock. LOCAL EARTHQUAKE SHOCK IN COLORADO DENVER, Sept. 18. — "Only a local surface phenomena, and not all serious or dangerous," was the declaration here today of Father Forestall, in charge of the seismograph at St. Regis college, regarding reports of an earthquake in Aspen, Colo., 90 miles west of here, last night. Reports from Aspen said three distinct shocks were felt over a period of one and a half hours. The shocks caused dishes to rattle, timbers in old buildings creaked and several dwellings shook.
