U.S.. ARMY MEN SEND
BIG SUMS TO ITALY
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS SENT
HOME BY ITALO-
AMERICANS

NAPLES, Oct. 1S.-Tens of thou
sands of checks amounting to mil
lions of dollars each month are be-
ing sent to relatives here by the
Italo-Americans who served in the
American army. Therefore the
money received from American sol
diers' allotments, wal risk insur-
ance benefits, and United States
government compensation consti-
tutes one of the chief sources of in
come for southern Italy at the pres
ent time. OF the thousands of Italo-
Americans in the American army,
the great majority were from south
ern Italy, which has furnished the
bulk of Italian emigrants to the
United States.
At the present rate of exchange
of almost ten lire to the dollar,
these checks yield a profitable reve-
nue. to Italy. 1t is a widely known
fact that thousands of families in
Southern Italy today are being
largely supported by such contribu-
lions from the treasury of the
United States.

Noice has no ship and but few
supplies. He depends almost en-
tirely upon his gun for his living.
Stefansson, his former chief. who is
noted among explorers as being able
to live off the barren white lands
of the north. probably taught Noice
how to get about without carrying
many supplies.
Noice's parents live in Seattle.
The explorer is young in years.

here about eight years ago. He
went north in 1912 with Captain
Louis Lane on the schooner Polar
Bear. When ~Stefansson purchased
the Polar Bear from Lane, Noice

Later. when ~Stefansson decided to
return to the outside world. NOice
left the. party and remained in the
North. His parents expect him to
return to Seattle next year.

Gently purchased here by the for
mer German emperor. has been
called for centuries, lies right in the
midst of this clean, slow-moving
little Dutch village, whose 5000 or
so inhabitants, while not at all ex-
cited about it, are looking forward
with considerable interest to Num-
bering among their burghers one
William Hohenzollern, formerly of
Potsdam.
The villagers, along with most
persons in this section of the coun-
try. believe that he is coming here
to settle down for life. If hat be
his intention he has selected as a
voluntary substitute for st. Helena
one of the prettiest spots in Hol-
land. There is nothing in the es-
tate he has purchased or in the
surrounding community to suggest
a place of exile.
Doom. like Amerongen. is n of
the few villages in Holland located
on ground that seems to be above
sea level. Instead of canals and
dykes and the monotonous flat lands
occupied by sleepy-looking black
and white cows and pOmpOus, fat
windmills which form the unchang-
ing scenery of most of Holland. the
country about Doom, while gener-
ally flat. to be sure. has here and
there a faint suspicion of a hillock.

TtUTONS AGAIN TO
EAT REAL BREAD
WARTIME PRODUCT TO BE RE-
PLACED BH WHITE
BREAD

BERLIN, Oct. 2O.-On the
strength of the present prospects
of an early improvement in wheat
deliveries, Berlin in a few weeks
will be able TO take definite leave
of the black, pasty, ~tasteless war
bread which has been a prolific
producer of morning grouches and
indigestion.
The new loaf which bakers will
provide will be hailed with enthu-
siasm. as it deserves to be for the
feat of washing down two slabs of
potato or carrot meal bread with a
cup of acorn coffee. though only
one of many gastronomic acrohatics
practiced by blockheaded Germans
in the last four years, was never
rendered any easier by frequent
repetitions.
With the disappearance of black
bread, little white rolls celebrate
their public resurrection. Favored
guests are even able to obtain them
now by employing the ever infallible
war trick. Speak softly and carry
a big tip"

Is MAKING WAY ALONG COAST
ACCOMPANIED ONLY BY
ESIIMOS

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 1S.-An
American explorer, Harold Noice,
formerly a member of Vilhjalmur
Stefansson's party, is working his
way eastward on foot along the
route of the northwest passage on
the northern rim of the continent.
according to word received here.
He expects to reach the Hudson
Bay country and civilization some
time next summer.
Storker Storkerson, formerly sec
ond in command of the Stefansson
party. who arrived here recently
from the far north, said that Noice.
accompanied only by Eskimos, is
preceding slowly and mapping ,por-
tions of the coast lines as he goes.
A stretch of the coast line of Vic
toria Land, heretofore unmapped.
is being charted by Noice.
Noice may visit the interior of
Victoria Land. which, according to
all reports, has never been explored
by white men. All explorers, trad

and the white stone or pink brick
roads wind quite frequently through
forest land-most of it the private
properties of the Dutch nobility.
Hundreds of automobiles pass
through Doom daily during the
summer season, for it is on the
main highway from Amsterdam and
Rotterdam to Arnem, which passes
the Ho~henzollern estate. From this
road, through a long avenue OF
stately trees, is visible n side OF
''The House of Doorn." There is
also almost a constant procession
of bicycling tourists, and the two
main hotels. with their white
painted little veranda cafes, and the
pensions" or boarding houses. do
a rushing business all through the
season. In fact, caring for sum-
mer tourists seems to be DOOrn's
only means of livelihood. The
country for miles around is dotted
with handsome villas, summer
homes of wealthy people of Amster-
dam or Rotterdam, and the more
presentations castles of the Dutch
aristocracy. who live there all the
year round, emerging daily from old
time feudal castles for carriage
rides behind slow but sure Dutch
horses driven by solemn looking
coachmen in tall black hats. Some
of the nobility have automobiles
and nearly every Hollander has his
bicycle.

FRANCE SOON TO ELICIT TENTH
PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC

The wide difference between pres
idential elections in France and the
United States is illustrated in the
fact that here the president is
chosen in parliament while in
America the chief executive is
elected by the vote of the people for
electors. Contrary to what opinions
abroad might expect from the
French. elections here r peaceful
when compared to those of America.
Entirely new legislative and ex-
ecutive machinery is to be selected.
The order of this election will be,
election of municipal and general
councils combined, of deputies and
senators, organization of the con-
gress at Versailles to choose a presi-
dent. reappointment of the old cabi-
net by the new president and FORM
alton of a new cabinet by the new
premier. unless he chooses to main
tain the old cabinet in power.
Under the new electoral law the
legislative districts have been re-
duced from 600 to 81. and instead
of voting for a single deputy as
formerly, the electors will vote for
as many deputies as are allotted to
any one department. The number
of these ranges< from one to A.
The government will print and cir
culate the tickets and campaign lit
erature at the expense of the can
didates.

ant General Baron Jacques, who, ac-
cording to his own assertion, occu-
pied the front seat in the front
row." when the Germans opened the
great international "show" in 1914,
is the most striking member of the
suite which is accompanying King
Albert of Belgium on his visit in the
United States. Tall, straight as an
arrow, General Jacques looks like
the fighting man he is and has been
from boyhood, for he is one of the
professional soldiers upon whom
Belgium relied when it made the
great decision which held up the
German army until French and Brit
ish soldiers could get into action
General Jacques was in command

crack military organizations of Bel

LYONS. France. Oct. 16.-The
election of a successor to President
Poincare is now only four months
distant yet parliamentary elections

and chamber of deputies must fire.
be held as these in joint session at
Versailles in January must elect the
tenth president of the republic.
Results of the coming election are
regarded as more obscure than any
since the fall of the empire. This
is all the more true because of the
death of one-half million voters in
the war. the coming of G of an
equal number of new voters n the
anticipated notifications of party
lines by new issues resulting from
the war and reconstruction.
Six hundred deputies and three
hundred senators are to be chosen.
No aspirant for any of these seats
has yet officially declared his can
didacy. There will be no primaries
or local conventions as in America
but the candidates will be selected
by party committees with various
combinations of different parties
whose principles are not too widely
separated.
The socialists are resolved not to
combine with n other party but
the radicals have decided to form
union tickets in some districts with
other purely republican organiza-
tons.
