BARBARY COAST OF
 FRISCO IS BUT A MEMORY

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 19 (by As sociated Press) Those who may come to San Francisco at the time of the Democratic convention, the latter part of June, with the idea of expert encing a thrill by visiting the Bar bary coast will be disappointed.
 Many of the resorts, celebrated in story and verse as the scenes of Ges- perate adventure, where cheap board ing house operators, commonly known as ''crimps,' freely piled their trade of shanghaiing sailors for unscrupu- lous sea captains, are permanently closed. Others have but the name of the places that once famed with color, music and revelry.
 Long before national prohibition was generally considered possibility, "Barbary Coast" a section of Pacific street extending back from the bay front a half dozen blocks to where Chinatown touches the Italian district, had been rendered innocuous by the prohibition of the sale of liquor in inc long row of dance halls there
 The main artery from this district to Market street, San Francisco's s principal thoroughfare, is Kearney street, where once, it is declared, within an hour enough reckless spir- it's could be picked up to start almost any sort of desperate enterprise. Now Kearney is one of the quietest and most respectable business streets

JUNEAU IS BEST TOWN
 IN ALASKA IS BELIEF
 VISITING FAIRBANKSAN

After visiting the principal towns form Cordova to Ketchikan, l am satisfied that Juneau is the best town in Alaska from a sub stantial business standpoint" said Dr kendrick Pierce of Fairbanks. Who has been looking over the town for several days.

HARD LINES FOR FORMER KAISER'S
 PROUD OFFICERS


 BERLIN, Aug. 24.-No one in Germany sighs more fervently for "the good old days" of the Kaiser than the former army officer. Fore ed off the government payroll by the reduction of the ar,a', ultraiped for work other than st lfiering, and so generally dsliked b. the popula tion that he has diffieu.tJ in finding any kind of employment, the officer lot in democratic Germany is hard one His pre-war world in which he strutted about as the privleged> FeI of his emperor, has been utterly de stroyed.
 Many have been reduced to ex- treme financial straits. The middle aged ex-officer gets pension of $500 marks a year. but that is only about one fifth of the amount re- quired to maintain family. So urgent is their need that the move ment has been set on foot to form an ex-officer's association for the purpose of inducing the government to provide them with land and subsi- dies.
 A former officer dolefuily discuss ing with the correspondent the plight of himself and his fellows. remarked that the expression once current la the United States. There's no good Indian but dead Indian applied precisely nowadays to the German .l-J.< rr4-,,r- class.
 Private soldiers bear out the state ment "At the beginning of the war one said, 'the troops were fond of their officers, who ate the same | food carried their own packs, and shared the hardships of the men. But most of the regular officers | were quickly killed off, and those left we're sent away from the line | for staff and other duties.
 | "Their places were taken by re
 serves who were an entirely differ
 ant lot They had to have special kitchens and plenty of milk and
 wine. They refused to march with the troops, always riding in automo-
 piles, and making the men carry their packs They were bullies and | tyrants, and the men grew to hate
 them. The civilian population felt the same way I was in Belgium
 when the armistice was signed. and
 when we withdrew to the Rhineland, | the people there were willing enough
 to provide lodgings for us privates,
 but they refused to have officers in their homes. Those fellows now are only getting what's coming to them
 In a number of cases ex-army of ficers have found themselves mad vertantly applying for employment to the very privates they once com l manded. These former soldiers, busi- ness men and shop keepers, take keen delight, it is said, in turning down their old superiors. Many of | the young ex-officers are taking up engineering and other technical lines, starting at the bottom of the ladder as manual workers in overalls.
 After the first revolution, it was risky thing for an officer to appear on the streets in uniform. They were emboldened by the Kapp coup fast March and since they have been showing themselves in increased numbers. especially student reserve officers. who are easily identified by their pale faces, slashed with fresh sword cuts received in duels. e~

MEXICO MAY DEMAND
RIGHT TO IMPORT ARMS

Mexico is said to be preparing to
demand permission to import arms

Hilario Medina, subsecretary of for

been reported to the State Depart

Of the retirement of Robert Lansing as
Secretary of State it is probable that
the Mexican demand will be met. At
the same time there was made public
in Mexico city the text of the most
recent correspondence between Mexi-
can Ambassador Bonilas and Secretary
Lansing on the matter.
Because of the unsettled conditions
in Mexico, the State Department has
for several years refused to permit
war munitions to be exported 10 Mex
leo except in a few specific instances.
Investigations showed that the rebels
secured at least half the munitions
permitted TO move for the CarranZa
forces. and they also were said to
have secured large quantities of bar

officers. The Investigations also
showed, 1t was said today. that prac-
