FLOODS GERMANY

BERLIN. May S.-The enormous
increase of paper currency in Ger
many has enabled counterfeiters to
flood large parts of the country with
spurious bills. 1t is estimated that
gangs of criminals have made several
million dollars in this way. Recently
six men and two women were tried,
convicted and sentenced to long prison
terms in Breslau for circulating bo-
gus ten mark (2.50) bills. At the
trial the members of the gang con-
fessed that their harvest during the
last six months has amounted to more
than four hundred thousand dollars.
but they refused to tell where the bills
were made and the counterfeiting
plant could not be discovered by the
authorities.
