TURK MONEY CHANGERS
FIGHT OVER U.S.e|LLS
BID FOR ANY KIND OF PAPER
WITH "DOLLAR"
ON 1T
PoDGORITzA, Montenegro, Dec.

PODGORITZA, Montenegro, Dec,
12.-Turkish brokers in Montene-
gro have gone dollar mad. So
great has the demand for American
money become that money changers
fight with each other for the privi-
lege of buying American bills and
often overbid in an attempt to gain
a customer.
Almost anything that has the
word dollar" written upon it has
been sold to the dealers. Every day
some worthless piece of paper en-
bellished with stamps and flourish
ing signatures and with the word
dollar" appearing frequently is
brought to the Office of the comp
troller of the American Red Cross
for Identification and to have the
exact value set,
Some time ago a Turk brought a
$500 note of the Empire of Brazil
to the office. He had paid a high
medium for the note and was as
tonished when he was told that all
paper that is marked dollars" is
not necessarily United States money.
So greedy are the brokers in their
competition to buy American money
that the project of the district of
PodgoritZa has warned them that
much of the paper offered is not
genuine and that the American Red
Cross has agreed to pass on all
paper offered to prevent swindling.
