London, December 6-(Reciprocal Ne~s Service. )-Some of the mystifications of international finance are coming to the surface. and the financiers are showing up as people of more sober sense than the surface public. On the very day whom a mob was howiing down German opera in New York very different sort of transaction was going through the of fee of downtown bank. That day the National City bank had taken the first step toward bringing about better trade relations between Germany and Brazil Acting through it's Rio de Janeiro branch this powerful American financial agency had made smooth the way of the German merchant in Brazil and the Braziia.1 merchant in Germany by placing it's bill portfolio on Hamburg at the service of the trading public of Brazil
 This revelation, reported in . Brazilian newspaper and confirmed in a German publication. might strike Americans as something unusual and savoring of hidz. den pro-Germanism in financial circles if 1t were taken alone. But it is, in fact.

BIG TUNNEL PLANNED
 BY JAP GOVERNMENT

TOKIO.-A bill providing for the expenditure of about S9,000,000 for the construction of the railroad tunnel under Simonoseki Strait, 1t is reported, will be introduced in the coming session of the Diet. The Shimonoseki Strait separates the southwest corner of the Island of Hondo, the terminus of the cen tral railway system, with its south ern neighbor island, Kiushia,.
 The building of this tunnel has been under consideration for a long time owing to the rapid tide which makes difficult the operation of the railway ferry between the main is- land and Kiushiu. The proposed tunnel will be three and one-half miles in length, one mile being under the sea bed at a depth of 30 feet. The plan proposed in- cludes a road for foot passengers.

FASHION HINT

Paris fashions this year will be "strikingly new and handsome" re- gardless of the high cost of living, and in the way of gowns the femin- inc world expects to see reaction from the wartime simplicity, says an Associated Press correspondent, quoting from the Paris Excelsior. "
 A victory" style in women's gowns is expected to be much in vogue this spring and summer, and evening gowns will be more elabor. ate than they have been since the war.
 Gowns will be longer and more ornate, the writer predicts and brilliant colors. profusion of flow CTS, plenty of ribbons, frills and furbelows. will be the rage. There will be no pronounced military style" The year 1919, it is said will not see the birth of any dis. tinctly new fashion as it is only a transition period"

Nenana Daily News.

Editor,
 Nenana Daily News.
 Dear Sir:-I would like permis- sion to say a few words, through the columns of your paper, to every body who own dogs, and who allow the animals to run at large on the streets of Nenana.
 There is no legal statute that can force people to tie up their dogs, but there is moral law, higher than any legal statute. which says that such people should take the necessary steps to restrain their dogs, for the protection of the children on the streets.
 It would be very poor policy to wait until some child gets badly bitten Git might be your child) and then express vain regrets over the unfortunate occurrence, ana then perhaps shoot the dog. It won't be the dogs fault, but it would be the fault of the owner of the animal
 Some people who own dogs are very fond of advancing the theory that their particular dog does not bite, for any dog will when given the proper opportunity, as it is part of dogs nature to do so.
 We all love dogs and know that they are a necessity in this country; which is the best reason why we should look after them properly, after they have done their winters work; instead of allowing them to run at large, become public nuis- ance and be blamed for their de- when the blame for such really belongs to their owners
 During the past three days, no less than three persons have been bitten by dogs, and one little child nas been attacked, and I therefore take this means to warn dog owners Q keep their animals tied up.
 Don't force the people to have he legislature frame a law that night work a hardship on the dogs I and their owners as well; and don't force the people to apply the moral I aw in the interim and destroy dogs | n an effort to abate the nuisance.
 The animals would not become a public nuisance if only their owners would stake steps to keep them Under proper restraint

VICTORY GARDENS

Americanism Illustrated in grow ing victory gardens is ''the best antidote for Bolshevik doctrine," ac- cording to the Young Mems Chris tian Association, which is planning 1919 campaign of 'Amerlcanism and the English speaking language via the victory garden" Details of the campaign were completed at Washington during March by the National War Garden Commission, cooperating with the immigration department of the Young Mems Christian Association in Chicago. Plans also provide for the showing of the victory warden work in nov ing pictures throughout the country.
 To start off the campaign ten thousand gardens and canning books have been sent to Chicago in ad- dition to several thousand posters The Young Mems Christian Associa- tion had 150 acres of industrial gardens last year and they hope to better that record this year These gardens are 25x150 feet.
 This is one of the most con- structive campaigns yet undertaken" recently declared Charles Lathrop Pack, president of the National War Garden Commission. ''Do not forget that the garden produces something besides food. It produces thrift so important to the nation at this time. Then too, 1t means contented workers everywhere. The man with victory garden realizes the value of a home and he knows the value of making regular trips to the bank Then too, the incentive to get out in the open and speak the English language is of tre- mendous value. z.
 ''The banks of the country know the home food producer for good customer and a good citizen. The time to begin making that citizen ship is when the citizen is new The best antidote for Bolshevik doc Urine is the production of food for the kitchen door"
 P. s. Ridsdale, secretary of the National War Garden Commission. has just returned from Europe, where he spent three months study ing the home food production plans He points out that everything pos sible must be done in the United States to produce food close to the point of consumption in order that other foodstuffs that can be ship ped long distances can be sent abroad There are millions in Flu rope close to the point of starva- tion, according to reports from abroad.
 Siberia, too, is to learn all about victory gardening. Professor W. C. O'Kane, of the State Agricul- tural College at Durham. N. H. has prepared garden circular for dis tribution this summer in Siberia by the Agricultural Educational Expedition under the auspices of the Young Mems Christian Asso- citation. Pictures from the National War Garden Commission victory garden book are used in the book which has been translated into Russian.

BELG|ANS HAVE
 TROUBLE MAKING
 GERMANS LEAVE

BRUSSELS.-Despite the passing of a law providing for the expulsion of enemy subjects from Belgium. numerous German civilians are of ten seen walking the streets of this city and other large cities in Bel gium at the persent time. While the law went into effect more than two months ago, the Belgian gov ernment is experiencing as much difficulty in getting the enemy civilians out of the country as the Allied soldiers had in expelling the enemy army from the trenches
 The minister of justice has found the undertaking greater one than he expected. In the Belgian Cham Der recently, Deputy Lemonnier, who acted as burgomaster of Brus- sels during the enforced absence of Burgomaster Max in Prussian jails and until he was removed him self to Germany, asked Minister of Justice Vandervelde what measures he intended taking to expedite the undersirables beyond the Rhine. Deputy Lemonnoire brought the minister's attention to the fact that several Germans were walking the streets of Brussels with impunitv and that some of them had been recognized as being paid agents of the kommandanture during the oc- cupation
 Vandervelde replied: ''The min istry of justice is doing its utmost to rid the country of German civi- lians but the difficulties encounter ed are formidable In times of peace are escorted to their frontier, but since the signing of the armistice, the Allied General Staff has refused absolutely to allow Germans to pass through the zone of occupation. Holland per mits them to go through the coun- try but not singly. Groups only are allowed in transit At the pres ent time one train of undesirables is leaving daily. Beginning Feb ruary 23. two trains have left for Holland daily carrying an average of twelve hundred Germans every day from Belgium"
 An idea of the number of Ger mans in Belgium before the war and the still greater number who have elected to make it during the occu- patton what they thought would be their permanent living place, may be gathered from the fact that trains are expected to leave for weeks and perhaps for months.
 Thes case of German subjects who have resided in Belgium for long years, have married Belgian women and whose sons have fought against the Germans is particularly sad. Under the terms of the law they should be expelled along with the others as they have remained enemy subjects. Vandervelde said how ever: Tt is impossible for me to send that class of Germans out of the country 9
