TO MINIMIZE BELL RAISING" 6"

Washington, Jan. 18-Gradual re- duction of the great variety of de- signs of United States currency to minimize the danger of counterfeiring and bill raising is under discussion between treasury officials and mem bers of congress The United States now has 54 different designs for bills of various denominations, and officials believe the resulting unfamiliarity of the public with the designs enables counterfeiters to operate more easily than if the designs were standard ized.
 There are now in circulation five different kinds of s1 notes, five of s2 bills, six s bills, aeven s10 bills, seven $20 bills, seven $50 bills, six s1O0 bills, four $500 pills, five s1 ,00O bills, one s5.O0O bill and two s10. 900 bills.

INCRE BASED SALES
 OF RAW FURS

The whole world has come to the United States today to purchase raw furs. Markets formerly centered on the European continent have been forced. by pressure Of the war, to give way to American enterprise and foresight: and today the worlds raw fur market centers in the traditional :u- trading center at St. Louis. Our North American continent Is the richest producing country in the world: and it Is but fitting that there should center the trading that nat urally gathers around the largest market at first hand. That this is the logical outcome Is borne out by the catalogue. just issued, for the usual January sale at the Funsten Fur Ex- change, Bt. Louis.
 Over s.o00.ooo peits. covering six ty-four kinds of fur known and deal, in by the fur trade generally, are scheduled. and 1t Is said that con servativs estimate of the total of the sale will run to around-if not over --ts, 900, ,0op,

Mayo Questions Wisdom
 Of Changing Battleships
Says Armistice Does Not Spell Peace-Regrets Convert ing Battleships Into Transports Great Blow to Navy to Have Two Thirds of Crews Torn Apart
 and Sent to Transporting Soldiers.

Philadelphia. Jan. 1S-Admiral Henry T. Mayo, commander of the American Atlantic fleet throughout its active service in war, speaking last night before the fourteenth annual Poor Richard Club Franklin Day banquet, questioned the wisdom of converting battleships into transports to bring men back from France.
 "Armistice does not spell peace, he declared If this great war ends without difficulties following, 1t will be different from any other war and we may need our battleships at any time The idea that the only thing to do now is to get the boys back quick is all wrong.
 The matter is settled now. and we must leave the directions of these matters to wiser heads than mine, but this making of the battleships over into transports I very much regret.

Amerongen, Holland, Tuesday, Jan. + - (By The Associated Press) - William Hohenzollern's illness, which manifests itself principally in the form of chills, Is being aggravated by his constant worriment, the effects of which are plainly visible in his fea- lures and his general physical condi- ton. He looks perhaps Is years older than when he crossed the from tier of Holland. Although he is only about to complete his sixtieth year, his birthday coming at the end of the present month, his appearance sug- gests a man of 70. He wears short, grayish beard and a dropping nous tache and his hitherto firm flesh Is now sagging.

would know how terrible a blow 1t is to the navy to have two-thirds of the crews taken off the ships, and have them torn apart and sent to trans porting. soldiers
 The admiral paid high tribute to the men who stayed at home and trained the men who went over into service.
 When war began, Admiral Mayo said. the navy. as a whole, was not ready for war. We were not ready because we had not had the money to be ready" he said. We did not have enough ships we did not have enough men. To get ready for a war, we had to multiply our personnel nearly ten-fold from 60,000 to nearly half a million. I think we all agree now that had America spent a few millions before the war for prepared ness she would not have to spend many billions in war, and had she spent a few hundred millions, there would not have been any war"

Is-Foreign Minister L!tvinoff of the Russian Bolshevik government has made several pro- posals on behalf of the Soviet regime, through the medium of d friendly emissary, for the opening of peace negotiations with the Entente, ac- cording to the Evening Standard to- day. None of these propositions, how ever, has been substantial enough to receive serious consideration either in Paris or London.
 The main conditions of the Bolshe- wiki are that their regime be main tained intact, with amnesty for all crimes committed in their name, and that their conf1scation of property and money be recognized as the law fully enacted measures.

 Great Britain believes first, it Is declared in these sources, that a League of Nations is desirable and attainable, and none of the British war aims will be considered practi- cable unless they conform with the tenets of such league as Is con- templated to re-align and govern the affairs of the universe. She also be- heves that things should be adjusted that war aims of every country will conform with those of the others-in other words that there should be a compact of give and take.
 As to tndemnities, Great Britain expects to enter a pool with other nations. Her claims are compara- lively small, it is said but she wants her air raid damage and her ship ping losses paid for.
 In addition to the League of Ma tions. one of the great things which Great Britain hopes will grow out of the peace conference, l. Is apparent, Is thoroughly good working agree ment with the United States. Great Importance is attached to this.
