FURS ARE
 GOING UP

LONDON, Aug. l. Fur dealers m London say that furs in America and Great Britian are to be higher in price next fall and winter than ever. Alien furriers in London have advanced the price ot the furS they are putting on the market 200 percent, since spring and many of these were damaged skins.
 Tn some of the London shops fur coats were displayed recently at pric- eS ranging from S200 to $250 which a short tune ago could have been bought for $50 or $75.
 I've are quite at the mercy of the Russian alien workman British rulrier said They know more about the trade than anyone else. l would not guarantee the plainest fur coat at S1OO, as, owing to the lack of proper workmanship and the shortage ot turS a coat is often made up of some piec- es that are faulty, though some parts of it may be good.
 'It is difficult just now to get the alien furriers to do repairing. They are keeping coats and fur wraps in hand for months, as they do not want to be bothered with repair work white they can be preparing new garments for their fuli harvests of abnormal prices. |"

LANCASTER, ENGLAND, Aug.l - The secret of the construction Of balance chamber ot the torpedo used by British submarines Is Jea!ouSly guarded by the British governmen'.

 The product of all three plants Is composed of interchangeable parts Of tOrpedoeS which are sent to the con tral government plant where the bal ance chamber is fitted on.
 Every tenth torpedo Is taken to pieces and the parts are tested to make sure that they are interchange able with the products of some other factory. IT not the mis-fits are con demmed.
 One factory here turns out about Fl torpedoeS a week. The labor IS mostly unskilled and includes women. The skilled workers were formerly employed on textile machines or in jewellery work. None of them knew anything about torpedoes before they came to the factory.

10 SUPPRESS
 SOCIALISTS

NEW YORK, Aug. l.-RepresSive measures against socialists are being put into effort by the German auth olities, according to Socialist Deputy Bauer, whose speech before the Reich stag on June is quoted in German newspapers received here. Bauer said that the socialist newspapers were being held back at some field post stations by order of high official and that complaints made to the War Minister were futile. Conditions Gn Breslau were worse than elsewhere. There, he said, the authorities have forbidden meetings of the members If the Socialist Party. The treat mont accorded to the paciistS was un- worthy and insulting said Bauer, whilc the propaganda of the "pohh- ions of conquest" is net only allowed but promoted.
 While the Social Democrats in the jth Amy District in Breslau are ab- solutely outlayed," declared Bauer, the Fatherland Party is allawed to hold meetings without molestation and cnloll new members. Our party secretary in Breslau was disciplined by being drafted into the army be cause he forwarded the complaints of the wives of soldiers"
 Bauel demanded that the Minister of War should prevent the general m command of the Breslau district from misusing his authority.
 Attempts by labor unions to coop
 rate in the regulation of wage con- ditions and working h1urs met wisd great opposition, Bauer said.
 Replying to Bauer's charges Sec retarys of the Interior Wallraf, said 'in free America the press has to suffer much more."
