Objective of Zeppelin Raid
Very Small Town

London, Nov. 15.-Correspondence
of the Associated Press)-A German
official communique mentions as one
of the detectives of the recent Yep
pelin raid, the town of Mapleton.
There are only three Mapletons in
England, and none of them could by
the furthest stretch of the imagination
be described as a town of military i'm
portance. The largest of the trio, in
Yorkshire, has a population Of only
$50. The other two, one in West
Derbyshire and the other in West
Yorkshire, have 200 and IT'S popu-
lation respectively. The only public
buildings in any of the three towns
are the local churches, and the small
est of the MapIetons has not even a
church.

Dutch LabOrer Go Into
Germany Daily to Work
At Higher Wages

Amsterdam, Netherlands, October
30.-In many districts on the Dutch
German borderline, there is a steady
outflow every morning of Dutch work
men, women and girls across the
frontier. They go out for the day to
work at high wages in German fac
tories just over the Germa inside. In
the evening, return tide sets in of
hungry crowds, for the Dutch factory
hands find eager purchasers for the
contents of their dinner pals.
Despite careful watching by the
Dutch frontier guards and police ma
irons, attempts lat smuggling con-
stantly occur. Five hundred persons
were convicted of smuggling at the
small frontier town of Heerenberg in
three weeks.

German Regulations to
Conserve Clothing
Number of Yards for Women's Dress
es Limited-Rules and Regula-
Gons Growing Stricter

Berne, Switzerland, October 80
Correspondence of THE Associated
ciated Press)-To conserve the di-
minishing supply of clothing in Ger
many, the German government has
imposed regulations requiring that,
for all articles of linen or personal
wear to be purchased, three similar
worn articles must be returned This
increases the scope and rigor of the
clothing cards introduced less than a
year ago.
The regulation applies to cotton
stockings, gloves, collars, table linen
and cloth materials for various house
hold purposes. For every suit or
overcoat two well worn one in good
condition must be surrendered. The
only articles of ordinary wear or use
that are cxemptd from card regula-
tion are wooden shoes and silk things
More than a year ago there was
much talk in Germany of reducing the
consumption of cloth by inducing pa
triotic minded women to return to the
old but fashionable tight skirt. The
maximum quantity Of material, in me-
ters, which should be used for a dress
was even stipulated The economy
was not successfully accomplished,
however, for the German women,
! though they shortened their skirts
appreciably, wore them wide and full.
Now, therefore, there is pending
rigid specification limiting the num-
ber of yards of cloth which may be
devoted to any garment of given pro-
portions-depending upon the size of
the prospective wearer. And if the
wearer needs linen and other gar
ments than outer clothes, she must
turn in three corresponding, worm
