The canyon, which is described by

RAISE MONEY
ORDER COST FOR u.s..
PRICE RAISED FROM EIGHT TO
SEvENTY-TwO CENTS PER
POUND

LONDON, Nov. S.-By increasing
the cos Of money orders payable in
the United States from eight cents
to ~ cents for every pound sterling,
the postal authorities have blocked
an avenue whereby Americans were
able to send money home without
mourning any loss incident to the
low rate of British exchange on
America.
Throughout the period of depre-
citation of English money in the
United States, the international pos
tai rate Of exchange has remained
constant at 4.S7. So by resorting
to money orders instead of to bank
drafts, which were governed by the
daily rate of exchange, and often
so or more points below the postal
rate, those who wished to transfer
money from this country to the
other side were enabled to do so at
the nominal expense of less than 10
cents for every So.
There was a limit, however. to
the amount that could be sent in
this way. the authorities during the
war restricting it to 100 pounds a
week for each individual.
One American business man in
London avoided serious loss by
using this means of transferring his
capital to his home city in Ohio.
OF course, many weeks were re-
quired to effect this particular trans
fer, as the amount involved was
several thousand pounds, but he
got it all through just before tho
price of money orders was SO rad
ically boosted.
So far the American postal au-
thorities have not altered the cost
of money orders payable in thu
country. An American banker here
pointed out to the correspondent
that the situation created by the
action of the British postal authori-
ties places the American public at :
disadvantage, especially those per-
sons living in country districts
where banking facilities are linn
tied and who must rely on the pos
tai money order service.

Mr.. Won Blon also declared:
Red Rock canyon is a romantic,
rainbow-hued gorge containing a
wealth of amazing structures reared
and carved and even painted by the
elements, but outranking the clas-
sizes of ancient and modern architec-
ture. A vast fossil bed, undug and

treasures untold. Geologically, it's
makeup is a problem for sages.
Pottery from its caves is unidenti-
fled and will concern psychologists
and educators.

wrote:

rugged branch gorges on a 1000

with flinty jet, the silent city, a
tenantless graveyard, glows under

terry. Not one is slanted. The
streets are swept immaculate by
strong winds. No sexton is needed"
He proceeds:
From all indications. Red Rock
canyon was a swamp teeming with
fauna in the late Tertiary period.
AS a fossil field it should yield
abundantly to expert exploitation.

DIVORCES INCREASING
RAPIDLY N ENGLAND
MANY SOLDIERS ASKING FREE
dom ON RETURN FROM
THE WAR

LONDON, Nov. 7.-England and
Wales have furnished a record num-
Der Of cases for the new term of
the divorce court in October. 1t
is expected that there will be about
2008 cases. or more than double the
total for any previous list. About
half these will be brought by people
of small means, who have taken adj
vantage of the facilities offered by
the official bureau which has been
established since the war began to
assist the poor people in obtaining
relief in the divorce court without
going to the heavy expense which
the ordinary procedure involves.
There has been a steady increase
in the number of divorce cases in
this country since the beginning of
the war and the problem has been
receiving much public attention.
Two parties have grown up, one
fayoring more liberal divorce laws,
and the other decrying the growing
number of separations of this kind.
AS to the cause of the increase
there is a divergence of opinion.
Official records show that a large
number of soldiers on returning
from the war have instituted suits
against their wives on the ground
of infidelity. The claim frequently
has been made that the war has re-
suited in a decided lowering of
moral standards. This is denied en-
phatically by d. Figur, of a firm
of solicitors, who have more taa,.
a hundred divorce cases coming up
in the next term, and who are hand
ling about one thousand in various
stages.
THE increase in the number of
divorces is certainly due to the
war;" said Mr.. Figur to \ rnpresen-
tatiye of the Associated Pres. hut
it is absolutely wrong to say that
there has been a great slump in
English morals. Undoubtedly there
have been many cases of infidelity
due to separations incident to the
war, but this is not the main factor
in the increase.
1.-The fact is tina there would
divorces is simply because the var
has taught both men and women in.
dependeice, and has taught them to
think. Women have learned that
they have an individuality and that
they can look after themselves. The
men, too, have come to take j
broader view of life.
1.-THE fact is hiatt there would
have been just as many divorces
before the war If people had net
been shackled by lack of initiative
and by fear of challenging the con-
ventions of society. The desire for
divorce was there but instead of
taking action people went on il the
old, unhappy state. Now. after ton1
years of separation many couples
have come to a realization that ihoy
can be happier apart. That is the
situation in a nutshell,

and are doing many constructive
things to increase its efficiency. New

lens are not being solved. The indus
try is still essentially unstable, labor
conditions are unsatisfactory, forest
depletion is of increasing seriousness

A comprehensive policy of forest de-

make for permanent mills, place tim
Der on the market only as it is need
ed, protect the present class
ify the lands, encourage agriculture,
and secure tree-growth on non-agri-
cultural lands. Timberlands would be
placed on a sound basis of manage
ment instead of a speculative basis,
and industrial plants given a perman-
ent life. The resulting labor condi-
tons would attract men who want to
settle down instead of migrate. The
public would have timber in abund-
ance, at reasonable prices. 1t could
afford to give its financial credit and
authority if its interests are safe
guarded by adequate control in pub
lie hands.

not continue to ignore them. Public

emit. 1t should be in accordance with
