MAN AND WOMAN PASS WORTH
LESS CHECKS IN MANY
WESTERN CITIES

woman are passing fraudulent checks
and other worthless commercial pa
per upon business men inf western
cities, according to warning received
by the Sioux City Retail Merchants
association from E. E. Johnston, OF
Des Moines, Ia, special agent of the
Iowa Retail Merchants bureau
Details of the recent swindling op-
erations of the couple at Kansas City,
Mo-, and Omaha, Neb., were contain
ed in the bulletin received by Secre-
tary d. A. Magee. A large volume OF
money was procured in those cities on
fraudulent vouchers and checks pur-
porting to have been issued by the
Holland Sugar company and drawn
on the Corn Exchange bank, of Chi
cago The lithographic reproduction
of the worthless paper is reported to
be almost perfect.
The numerous checks passed upon
unsuspecting merchants ranged in
the amounts they called for from $25
to $35. The man is reported as
weighing lao pounds and having a
light complexion, such as might be
acquired through indoor confinement
Avordupois of the woman is given
as lao pounds. She has dark com
plexion, according to the association
report, and wore several diamonds
and walked as though her feet were
sore" Having operated in Omaha

reau that the swindlers will visit the
larger Iowa cities.
About every two or three months,
SAYS the bulletin, "for the last year 6

her two or three small children into
shoe store, buying the children
shoes or going to department store
and fitting the children out with un
derwear and other garments. Sh'

and asks the merchants to fill out thu
checks for the amount of the pur
chase. These checks are bogus. Hav'

reports from one section declare

age was robbed of automobile tires.

ASKS SIX MONTHS
BUSINESS REST
ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS SELF
ISHNESS BY ONE CLASS CANNOT
STIMULATE PROSPERITY

Freeport, Pa, Sept 23.-An abso-
lutte industrial armistice for six
months was urged by Attorney Gen.
eral Palmer to permit the solution
of economic problems arising out of
the changes wrought by war.
Such a period of freedom from un-
rest, he declared, would result soon
in increased production which would
bring about an era of easier living
and better times" for all. On the
other hand, the attorney general
warned, selfish demands by any one
class cannot stimulate the national
prosperity or permanently benefit
even those obtaining such demands
by force. He strongly discounte-
nanced strikes.
Labor is asking a larger share of
the joint product of money and labor
and there is much merit in the
claim" he said, "but the chance OF
getting it is not advanced nor the
Justice of it more widely recognized
by the refusal of labor TO produce
The campaign to reduce the cost OF
living, evidently, was foremost in the
attorney generals mind in his speech
delivered at a reunion of the 18th
regiment of Pennsylvania volunteers
He said that although many problems
beset mems minds in these days OF
reconstruction, there is none which
cannot be worked out "in the general
interest" In government where the
people are the only rulers.
But unless we shall be satisfied
with that which Is for the general
interest" he continued. land do moi
insist upon that which is in our own
particular interest there will bt
trouble and delay in the settlement
If men could learn to be patient un
der conditions which have resulted
fro mthe world war, until more ac'
curate estimate of the possibilities oi
the situation can be made, all oul
problems will be sooner solved; bu
If impatience and selfishness shall
rule and immediate forceful or direc
action be taken, 1t is perfectly obviou:
that nothing but disorder and delay
can result.
1.-The crying need of the world jus
pow is for peace and not politica
peace between governments alone, blu
industrial peace among men also"
