Coblenz Business People Pre- fer to Wait Until Conditions Settle Down in Troubled Country
CBy Review Leased wirel

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY OF OCCUPATION, Sunday, Dec. 22. (By the Associated Press. )-The feeling among the merchants of Coblenz is that it is unsafe to risk investments until Germany's future is assured. The merchants say they have much to lose and little to gain by venturing upon new enterprises while Germany is iso- lated from the remainder of the world and still is unsettled as to the labor supply and industrial legislation.
 While the Americans have done con- siderable Christmas shopping in Cob lenz, among the Coblenz bankers busi- ness is considered dull and money easy. Dealers in most lines have sold virtually all their stocks and the mon- ey is now idle. The chief of the Cob lenZ bankers association estimates that prior to the signing of the arms tice business activity was about 60 per cent of its peace time volume but since has dropped until it is now about 45 per cent. No improvement in business is expected until after the national constitutional assembly.
 The OullHeSS III buslHeSS Has itS natural counterpart in wages, and complaints are heard that hours are long and wages low. The merchants of Maven estimate that eight marks per day is a fair living wage which will permit of the support of famIy. But in the vicinity of Maven stone quarry laborers receive five marks daily and men factory workers the same amount. The pay for women em- plOyes in factories is less.
 In Coblenz the wage is higher but

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair IN good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much allali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very
harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut
oil (which is pure and entirely grease
less), is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance Of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle of dust, dirt.
