1920 MERCHANT
SHIPS ARE SUNK
in n Months of War Vessels of
3,128,5S4 Tonnage Sent
Down

New York. Nov. 3.-One thousand
eight hundred and twenty merchant
ships with an aggregate gross tonnage
Of approximately 3,12S,5S4 have been
sunk by belligerent nations during
twenty-seVen months of war ending
November l, according to figures COM
piled from cable dispatches and mail
advices and published here to-day by
the Journal of Commerce.
Norway Heavy Loser
The losses during October were
larger than for any one of the preced-
ing five months, according to the sta
tistics, amounting to 127 vessels of a
total of 227,116 tons gross. The Oc-
tober rate of destruction was consid-
erably in excess of the monthly aver
age throughout the war period, and
British shipping sustained losses
nearly equai to those of August and
September combined. Norway lost the
largest number of ships, Sc, according
to the statistics but their gross tom
mage was only 57,333 as compared
with Great Britain's total loss of
1855 gross tonnage of 3S vessels
destroyed.
A table showing the total shipping
losses since the war began estimates
those of the entente allies at about 70
per cent. and those of neutrals at
nearly 8 pr cent. with Teutonic losses
less than per cent.

TO REMOVE BAN
ON ICE CREAM
Has Been Up to City Standard
During Last Two
Weeks

DIR. j. M. j. Raunick, city health
officer, announced late this afternoon
that he will remove the health de-
partment ban on ice cream in an Of
fetal statement tomorrow.
For more than two months this has
been standing, DR.. Raunick declar-
ing that the ice cream was so badly
contaminated that people should not
eat it. During the last two weeks
ice cream manufactured in the city
with few exceptions has been up to
the health department standard, and
as the typhoid epidemic is over DR..
Raunick said to-day that the ban
Will be removed.
Ice cream and milk reports for the
last two weeks of October, announced
to-day at the City health department
offices, show that the supply from
many of the manufacturers and deal
ers for that period was the best since
the beginning of the typhoid fever
epidemic in August. Six of the
twenty-five tests made of the milk
supply showed the presence of disease
germs, ranging from 500 to $500 per
cubic centimeter. Two of these tests
were made by request of A. Il. Rudy.
The other contaminated samples
were obtained from w. L. Knighton.
F. M. Ortmeyer, C. OFT and the Penn
sylvania Milk Products company.
Two ice cream samples showed the
presence of disease germs, but all of
the other ones were pure. One sam
pie taken from cream manufactured
by j. S. Wilson contained 1880
germs per cubic centimeter and the
cream was condemned and confiis-
Gated. The other sample was that of
Russ Brothers but contained only 800
disease germs per cubic centimeter.

POLICE FAIL TO
CATCH BURGLARS
WHO START FIRE
After Robbing Pool Room on
Hill, Yeggmen Set Place
AblaZe

City police and detectives after a
thorough search all day failed to get
any definite clues in their investi-
cation TO discover the burglars who
robbed the poolroom of Fl. A. Schriver,
zoo Market street, early this morning
and then set fire to the place, with a
loss OF $4,000.
Shortly afterward the blaze was dis
covered and an alarm sent in from
Box I, Thirteenth and Market streets.
District firemen after a hard battle
with the fire prevented q heavy loss to
other buildings adjoining the pool
room. The loss will not exceed $4,000
ana is almost totally covered by insur-
ance.
Thieves Knew Ground
The thieves who are responsible for
tho fire, according to the police, are
well acquainted with the district. After
entering the poolroom they took more
than S14 from the cash register and
then removed a small safe containing
S21O. This has not been found. Ac-
cordinS to Fire Chief John C. Kinder,
the fire started on the second floor and
the burglars probably piled up waste

HIGHER RENTS
MERE BUGABOO
OWNER STATES
DR.. John Oenslager, One of
City's Biggest Landlords,
Pooh-poohs
INCREASE
However, if Direct Taxation
Is Necessary, Renter Will
Be Soaked"

Higher rent possibilities as an argu-
ment against the passage next Tues
day of tho high school loan was depre-
Gated to-day as a mere bugaboo by
DIR. John Oenslager, one of the city's
biggest owners of tenant properties.
Floating of the $1,250,000 loan will
naturally mean in time an increase to
some extent in taxation. he pointed
out, but the effect on the ultimate
consumer" the renter of houses,
should be scarcely noticeable.
If. however, the school authorities
are compelled, because of the failure
of the people to consent to borrowing
the necessary money to provide addi-
tional school facilities, to raise the
money by direct taxation Immediately
the burden naturally must be borne
by the taxpayer and then in turn by
the ultimate consumer" the renter of
houses.
The Need of the Loan
Finally, DR.. Oenslager emphasized
the necessity for providing increased
high school facilities.
DR.. Oenslager talked on the loan
and the incident problem of increased
taxa ton and its results in answer to
some questions on the subject pro-
pounded by a Telegraph reporter.
Opponents of the school loan have
advanced the argument that the pass
age of the measure will mean such an
Increased burden of taxation as will
cause n raising of rents from a dollar
TO three dollars Il month. AS one of
the city's larger renters of tenant
properties, DR.. Oenslager, what is your
opinion on the subject?" he was asked.
The Ultimate Consumer
why, to my mind, the increase in
rents, if there be any increase neces-
sary. will be negligible" he replied.
"Of course you do not mean that a
raise in taxation will not ultimately
affect the man who pays rent?''
Certainly not. The ultimate con-
sumer must bear his share of the cost
of the freight, and in this instance it is
the man who rents his house as well
as the owner vi tho property 1t is
