MINT STILL COINS CENTS
100000 to 5000, 900 a Day Made
by Plant Here

At last the lowly penny has come
into its own, and at present the little
brown coin is the most important unit
in the currency of the United States.
Without its aid the more dignified dime.
quarter and half dollar are helpless.
To meet the universal demand for the
new king of coins the United States
Mint at Seventeenth and Spring Garden
streets is turning out from 2,200. 200
to 8, ,OO0, 900 cent pieces each day. Even
at. this rate the plant is $4,000, 200
pennies behind.
The application of war taxes have
caused an unprecedented demand for the
penny, and, according to Adam NJ. Joyce,
superintendent Of the mint, when they
were first instituted there was a sur
prising shortage of pennies in circula-
tion.

RUMAMZA'S ROYAL LNFL UENCE'

risen against Soviet doctrines and
proclaimed their faith in the old
economic order.
Oustcd Bella Kun.
AS the American peace commission
knows beyond the shadow of a doubt.
II was not the Roumanian advance
which precipitated the downfall of
Be!a Kun but rather it was his i'm
pending collapse that permitted the
hAumanians to press forward un-
hindercd
The Budapest dictator was hurled
from his pedestal by those to whom
ne had sought to cater, namely, the
hungarian trades unlonists. Then
those unions were eager to set up n
democratic government which would
bring peace to their country, and
they found themselves crushed under
the heel of an invader.
The Hungayiank are orELred to
pay the Roumanian conqueror an in
demnity which would leave them in
dustrially bound commercially pros
trate and perhaps face to face with
starvation.
The terms proposed by Rumania
are utterly irreconcilable with the
armistlce conditions. Rumanias ac-
tion, moreover, constitutes viola
ton of the pledges made to the anti
Bella Kun trades unions by the allies,
for 1t is no longer secret that the
representatives of the allies agred
to feed the Hungarians and maintain
them. provided they would demobilize
the red army and submit to the de-
crees of the allies.
AT the time those promises were
made the Rumanian forces were in
fuIl retreat from Bella Kun's legions.
The provisions and other supplies now
demanded by the Rumanians can be
ctssed only as punitive indemnity.
Tor they are not needed in Rumanian
At this time. Rumanians will have
surplus food when their harvest is in.
Doubtless the demands are based
IN the fact that the Austro- -Hunga-
lans looted Rumania pretty thor
lughly in the months preceding the
'rmistice. But if the Rumanians are
permitted to strip Hungary of the
hings Hungary requires for economic |
existence the allies will have to pay
he bill in one way or another.

FOOD PRICES NOT

LAW FRANCE FINDS


Paris, Aug. Thursday Officials
of the French food ministry, in view
of the food situation here, are display
ing deep interest in the discussion in
the United States of the question re-
ducing the price of wheat by a con-
gressional' appropriation to finance its
sale below the guaranteed price to
the producer Of $2.26 per bushel.
The farmers in France are guaran-
teed an equivalent of 1925 a bushel
for wheat produced.
The French government, 1t was
said at the ministry today, had subsi-
died the millers, making it possible
for them to sell flour to bakers at
rates which permit standard bread to
be sold to the consumer at about 6
cents a pound. Under this plan the
saving to the consumer, it was added.
was about cents pound
The reduction IN the cost of bread
to the consumer in France, officials in
the ministry said, had not resulted
in a decrease in the price of other
food necessities. In France today eggs
are selling at the equivalent of $1.20
a dozen and butter atSS150 a pounl.
Their experience, the officials ad-
ded, had demonstrated that 1t was
impossible to fix prices by law and
that true economic basis of food con-
troll is that of establishing prices byI

ducers, the consumers and the govern

SISTER PHILIP To
LEAVE ST. JOSEPH
SANAT T0R|UM SOON
New Church Ruling Results in
Transfer of Sister of Char
ity for Eight Years Super
intendent of Institution,

That the recent ecclesiastical rul-
ing limiting the tenure of heads of
religious institutions to three years
would affect st. Joseph sanatorium
in Albuquerque, became known yes
terday when official announcement
was authorized of the transfer of Sis
ter Philip Neri, for eight years super
intendent of St. Josephs, to the super
intency of an equally important insti-
tuition, the name Of which has not yet
been disclosed.
Sister Philip Neri came to Abu-
querque nine years ago after very
extensive experience in hospitals and
sanatoriums in various parts of the
United States. Having specialized
elsewhere in surgical cases, she was
placed in charge of the operating
room at st. Joseph and after one
year became uperintendent. Assum-
ing that office, Sister Philip realized
the possibilities of Albuquerque as a
health resort and made extensive i'm
provements at st. Josephs' sanato-
rum. The sanatOrum was equipped
with staff of specialists and accom-
modations designed to meet the re-
quirements of people asking for the
best service and attention available
The result was that the sanatorium
became widely known by those "chas-
ing the cure" Other sanatoriumSI
came to Albuquerque until this city
is now one of the recognized resorts
of the country for the cure of pull
monary tuberculosis.
While improving sanatorium facili-l
ties, the hospital equipment at st. Jo-
seph's was not neglected and the OPP
Grating room and equipment are equal
to any in the west.
No announcement has been made
as to when Sister Philip will leave
Albuquerque, although it is expected
to be in the near future. No success |
sor has as yet been appointed.
Possessing wide experience hos
pital work, great executive ability and |
a keen desire to render the greatest
possible service to the sick and af-
flicted, Sister Philips administration
of st. Joseph's was a pronounced sue
cess in every respect and her depar-
ture will be accepted with much re-
gret by many people in Albu-
querque and New Mexico.

AS TO SITE OF "SAN"

No definite conclusion was reached
yesterday by the conference of dele

matter of a location for the proposed

As High As One Thousand

Especial Gable Dispatch,

London, Aug. 11,--Ambassado Da-
Wis intends to advise the state depart
ment of the importance of emphasiz-
ing to all Americans who intend to
visit Europe the probability that they
may be marooned abroad for weeks,
perhaps for months, owing to the
shortage of transportation facilities
The journal correspondent learned
today that this report by the ambassa-
dor will be made because of the re-
ported intention of the state depart
ment to remove all passport restric-
tons on November /. Steamship man
ayers say there is little likelihood of
improving present conditions before
winter, and that normal conditions
cannot be expected earlier than
spring.
Managers of the Cunard line in
formed the Journal correspondent
that all passenger accommodation are
booked to the end of October. SINH
lar reports come from the Anchor,
the White Star and the Dutch lines.
Canadian Pacific ships are fully
booked the end of September.
The situation is further aggravated
by the withdrawal of the Aquitania
and the Olympic for refitting, which
will take nearly six months and which
is done ostensibly to meet expected
American Transatlantic competition.
1t is a common experience for passen-
gers in a hurry to pay $500 for the
ticket of some one already booked
and other business men have offered
as high as $1,000 to any one willingI
to give up a berth.
Shortage of Accommodations has
become so serious that the matter hasI
been brought into the realm of di-
plomacy. representations have beenl
made TO the American government by
the British to ascertain why more
British subjects have been unable to
obtain American vises.
The state department has replied |
mat the British operate so per cent
of the Transatlantic traffic and only |
20 per cent of that space is available !
for passenger traffic. 1t has been nee |
essary, therefore, to give preference to |
Americans and Canadians in this Who'll |
ly inadequate allotment.
Now the British government has
adopted the practice of not vising
British passports for America except
i'll cases of the greatest urgency ItI
is understood the American authori-
ties have agreed not to ask the Brit
ish shipping board to find accommo-
dations for any except American gov
ernment officials.
Thus the matter seems to be tenn
porarily adjusted between the two
governments, but British business in
terests are having the question raised
in parliament
When the overseas troops shall
have been repatriated. by November
or December, the situation will proba-
bly, be somewhat eased, although
many Of the ships then to be released
are scheduled to refit for passenger
traffic as soon thereafter as possible.
