Brussels, Jan. 29.-The steps TAX

Won Bissing to convert the Univer-
sity of Ghent into a Flemish in

wish of the Flemish population of
Belgium.
As early as 1910, or only a decade
after Belgium was separated from
Holland. a resolution was introduced
in the Belgian Parliament for the
establishment of Flemish univer-
sity, Nothing came of this first at
tempt, but the movement never sub
sided Four years ago ii gained
such force that three Flemish men,
bers of the chamber, representing
each o. the three political parties,
united in Offering a resolution call
ing for a Flemish university. Cppo-
nents of the measure argued that
the Flemish language was not adapt
ed to teaching scientific and high
literary courses, as the FLEMISH peo-
pie were without literature of
their own, and even such prominent
Flemings as Maeterli1ck and Yer
haeren were among those whose in
fluence was brought against the
proposition. The POLITICAL economist,
Lodewyk de Raet, who has died
since the war began, argued, how
ever, that the backwardness of the
Flemings in social and political de-
velopmen. was due precisely &c the
fact that they had been without
university where they might study
in their own language.

MONEY MADE OUT OF STONE
AS BIG AS CART WHEELS

London, Jan. 80. Stone money
ranging in size from ordinary grind
stones up to cartwheels is the custo-
mary currency in the Island of zap,
according to the annual bullion re-
port of one of London's largest fl
nancial firms. Yap belongs to the
Caroline Islands in the Pacific be-
tween Hawaii and the Philippines.
1t is now British possession, being
captured early in the war from Ger
many, who obtained it by purchase
from Spain in 1898.
The stone currency of zap is made
of limestone. which must be of fine
white grain A hole is cut in the
center to allow stick to be passed
through, as the larger stones are
rolled up to the hut of the owner.
Some of the stones have a diameter
up to twelve feet, with the result
that a number of men are required
TO effect payment.
In case the transfer of the money
is considered too great job the new
owner simply puts his own mark on
it and leaves it outside the old own
er's hut. A case is recorded where
an exceptionally fine stone, while be-
ing moved at sea, fell off-the raft
and was lost. But the owner con-
tinued to retain its potential value
in the eyes of his fellow citizens,
and was given the same credit as if
the stone stood safely before his
hut.

cause the products are or ought to
