AMERICAN MONEY
 MUCH IN DEMAND
I1oisheviki Painted Everything Red Until Paint Supply Was
 Exhausted

! Princeton, x. J., June 1.-The Comm unists, or Bolsheviki. painted everything red in Budapest until the paint supply was exhausted, according to an American officer who recently visited that Hungarian city. This fact was mentioned in a letter written by another American officer attached to the peace conference who wrote from Vienna on May 1, his letter coming through by way of Paris in unusuallv fast time.
 ne Writer apparently did not pro- ceed beyond Vienna, but received his information concerning the decoration or Budayest with red paint from on- other American officer who had Iust returned from that city. The writer said that Am merican money was wort much more to the people of Vienna than their own paper money.
 The dollar now buys 30 kronan where it used to buy only five kronen,' he wrote 80 we Americers are all rich. There are five or six American officers and an Americor mission in Vienna, and the Americans are well liked here, getting favors i,, the hotels. restaurants and theaners Stlil people stare at us quite ooo..1-, When We walk down the street. One sees qu1te few German and Austrian ofhcers and soldiers on the street."
 There is now. he says, only one way TOT an outsider to travel to Vienna. ana that is by the Tnter-Allied Fx- press which comes through twice week to Warsaw and has cars which are dropped off for Prague, Budapest and Constantinople. The country ia so short of food, he adds. that .soy erai weeks ago the BolsheviI1i took the diner off the train" so the allied diplomats must now carry thci, own food.

U. s. BEATS ENGLAND
 IN SHIPBUHDTNG
On March 31 This Country Was Con- Structing Twice as Many Ships
 as Great Britain

London. June 5, (Correspondence ot the Associated Press. )-The United States was building on March 31 twice as much shipping as was Grea f Britain, according to the figures given by Lloyd's Register for the first three months of 1919.
 The total amount of all shippinr under construction on that date in Allied and neutral countries was given as 1.196.266 tons. Great Britain's share of this was 2.254.S45, The United States was then building 4,lS5'723 tons of shipping.
 These figures credit the United States with 75 per cent. of the total tonnage under construction in Allied or neutral countries outside of Great Britain and it is pointed out that the United States is now building 29 times as much as 1t was in June, 1914. One London paper says the effect of so many newly built ships entering into sea-going trade already is being felt

With the acquisition of liquor stocks
 as though no dry" period loomed
 above the midsummer horizon, boni-
 faces in the New York district, in
 public statem ents. have bitterly as sailed the prohibitionists
 Thomas D. Green and John McE Bowman, president and vice president, respectively, of the New York City Hotel association, described the atti- tude of the anti-liquor advocates as not caring what happens, so long as 1t doesn t happen to them" At a time when business is just beginning to flow into legitimate channels" Mir Bowman declared. the hotel business is Confronted by the spectacle of ruin if prohibition Is enforced, but he asserted he did not anticipate success in what he characterized as this lat est attempt of religious and political fanatics to take away more individ- ual rghts. However. he predicted many hotels of New York city and the surrounding territory would be closed July 1, or soon aftorward, if the war time dry law is put into force.
 George A. Farnham, president of the New York State Hotel association, "refused to believe' that either the emergency or constitutional prohibit ton acts would become operative.
 New England hotels, on the other hand, are reported to be counting on the autom obtle travel revival to offset losses under no-liquor status, while in Pennsylvania serving of iced bever- ages to tourists and devotees of the dancing craze is expected to provide a substantial revenue. Philadelphia for nearly a year has permitted no vending of liquors in dancing parlors, and back in the mountains where bars have been few and far between in re- cent years, the prohibition law will have little effect on the conduct of ho- tels
 Along the coast, from Atlantic City south. the hotel men are working out substitutes for the bar and the grill room. We will give them dancing, morning. afternoon and evening"" said the proprietor Of a great seaside car avansary, adding his expectation, which seemed 10 be typical of other bonifaces in resort cites, of heavy pa tronagc and good returns from teas, ices and other light beverages to be in the terpsiChorean halls.
 Among hotel men and observers of the business generally there is agree ment that consumption of intoXicant5 has been restricted by the high prices resulting from curtailed manufacture and increased taxation growing out of the war. If the necessity arises, they admit, the task of leading to the tea rooms and soda fountains that portion of the public which still Clings to drinks with q kick in them will be a simple one. compared to such an un- dertaking without the involuntary, vet no less liberal education in temper 1 ance and abstinence imposed by the ! world conflict.
