FRONTIER RULES
 MORE RIGOROUS

Vienna, Oct. S.-Instead of relax ing, the frontier regulations of the succession states of the old empire they seem to become more rigorous. In Czecho-Slovakia they are particu- larly irksorne and travellers register 9 great many complaints against the restrictions. Baggage is searchedS to the last handkerchief, no foodstuffs of any kind may be taken out of the country and not more than 1000 crowns in money. Business men are forced to go through tangfess of red tape to secure permits to } carry enough money to take them from city to city and pay hotel bills.
 The government has just retaliat- ed against the new American pass port fees by charging the equivalent of $10 for every American visa. The charge to the native is a few crowns. It now costs an American $1O to get into CZecho-Slovakia and ten more to get out

EARTHQUAKES
 PROVE PUZZLE

Washington, Oct. S.-Frequent
 earthquakes in North and South
 America and Europe during the last
 few months have puzzled government
 scientists. They regard the disturb ances as a geological anomaly for they say that the greatest seismic disturb ance is known definitely to be in opinion coincides with that of Father Tondorf, director of the Georgetown University Seismic Observatory
 The government scientists have no particular scientific reason to sug- gest for the frequency of the recent
 earth disturbances. They are making no special study of the earthquakes. and their opinion is. that geology is | too young a science and too little is known of it for anyone to attempt an | explanation of the cause of the an- omaly.
 1 Geologists recognize that the earth's surface is in a state of continual un- ! rest, and they explain that whenever | the accumulated force passes the "breaking point,'' earthquakes follow.
 The disturbances which recently have
 garded by scientists as movements of | the earth's crust and yet they say | that some of the shocks may have ex- | tended to a depth of 200 miles.
 Fault lines or weak places in the earth are we'll known to the geol- | ogists. according to G.. P. Merrill, curator of the National Museum, who explains that because of this knowl- edge a general prediction regarding | the area of a disturbance can be made | by the scientists. But, he adds, "no | sane man. would attempt to say ex- actly where or when, for a fault may | extend for several hundred miles.

HARES COMPANY

The flares Motors, Inc, today make announcement of a general re- duction in selling price of both Lo- combfle and Mercer cars, the reduc- tion on Locombile cars of all types being $1,35O and Mercers, all types 31.00o- The new price list is as of october 1st date and the company in making the announcement say that
 beacuse of the element of uncer- tainty which obscures the situation they will accept orders on the new selling scale only until January l."
 In the statement given out the flares Motors say: Prices are com ing down because they must-not because costs have lowered. but be- cause business in this country cannot resume it's normal volume and con- hdence until the adequate buying power Of the dollar has been re- stored"
 The company states that both out put and sales have been greater dur ing the last four months than at any other equivalent period in the history Of the Locomobile and Mercer Com panies, but improvements in both products plus increasing costs of labor and materials have more than Kept pace with increased produc- lion, and except for the obvious duty of collaboration among manufactur- CTS to restore the morale of business even at considerable temporary sac. rihce, there would be no Justification whatever for a price reduction at this time."

LABOR ELEMENT
 HAS MAJORITY

New York, Oct. S.-The first Jew ish Constituent Assembly of Pales- tine convened in Jerusalem today ac- cording to advices received at the headquarters here of the Zionist Or ganization of America
 Although the labor element in the assembly has a.rmajority, nos ultra radical legislation is expected, the ad- vices stated, the National Radical Party being moderate and the "capi- talist' group favoring modern social innovations. Women delegates took their seats notwithstanding Ortho- dox protests, the advices added. The Assem- bly, has the sanction of Sir Herbert Samuel, British High Com missioner to Palestine.

.FAvORS TAX ON ALL COLD FOR
 USE IN ARTS

Washington, Oct. S.-Fear that the declining gold production in this country would make it difficult to retain the nation on gold standard basis during popular campaign for credit restriction, accompanied by de- clining prices, was expressed in a Formal statement issued today by Chairman McFadden, of the House Banking Committee.
 MT McFadden is the author of a bill pending before Congress under which a tax of $1O an ounce would pc levied on gold used in the indus be paid to producers to stimulate their efforts. In his statement MT. McFadden declared that unless some relief was furnished the American gold mining industry would be com pelied to shut down soon because the legally fixed price of $2O.s7 an ounce Tor gold was less than current pro ductiOn costs.
 ''The continued depletion of the old stock by excess exportation and Industrial use," MT. McFadden said Twill seriously impair the public con- ddence in the nations finance and currency unless a normal gold output is insured.
 The United States mint sold for Industrial consumption during 1919 nearly $22,000,000 more gold than United States, while this year the drain on the monetary stock will probably be $40,000, 900. Since the industrial consumers of gold are the only ones in the country receiving raw material at the pre-war price, it Is evident that they are being heavily subsidized"
 Failure of the United States to act, MT McFadden asserted, will permit the British Empire to gain an un- questioned supremacy in the world s gold production South African pro- J0ucers, who mine the bulk of the British gold, he added, have been receiving an exchange premium as high as 50 per cent since July. 1919, and the French government, in ad- dition to imposing an exchange dis count on industrial gold, has levied sumptuary tax of $3.73 an ounce for gold used in fabrication of articles, other than money.
 This year the contribution of the United States to the gold production of the world," MT. McFadden said will probably be not more than 12 Der cent, about half of that which it contributed in 1915, wnie the stimu- 1atfng effect of the British exchange premium will probably increase the quota which the British Empire will contribute to 75 per cent"

EXPECT SOVIET
 IS TO LAUNCH
 FRESH CAMPAIGN

Berlin, Oct. S.-Close observers of the Ruso-Polish situation say the Russian Soviet army will not content itself with defeat but will either be- gin a counter-offensive this winter or launch fresh campaign in the spring.
 An American army officer who toured Poland from Warsaw to Sol dau and then visited the Russian in- ternment camps of East Prussia said he found virtual unanimity of opinion among Poles, French, and Germans that the Russians would not give up their ambition to conquer Poland without further fighting.
 A French officer serving in Poland told the correspondent he believed the Russians would come back in the spring, and that they would be better organized for invasion than they were this summer. A Polish officer, grad uate of an American university and serving with General Joseph Ha1Ier,s army, declared he believed, and this belief prevailed among Polish officers that the Russians were badly beaten but would be able to reorganize and prepare for another campaign within six months. A number, of Germans who held the opinion that Poland cannot endure as a nation, said they

CANADIAN FLOUR
 MUCH CHEAPER THAN AMERICAN

(By International News Service.)
 Boston, Mass. Oct. 8.-Boston wholesale flour dealers and agents of Western flour mills declare that the difference in exchange between Can ada and the United States enables the Canadian millers to put flour into Boston a dollar cheaper than the Western smil1ers can, and still make a larger percentage of profit than American mills selling at the higher price.
 Boston is now being flooded with Canadian flour at prices ranging from 75 cents to 1 a barrel cheaper than American flour. This is on the grades used by housewives who bake their own loaves. The flour used by bakers is sold by the Canadian mi1lers on a closer margin, but even the smallest margin means a great deal to con- cerns that buy by the carload.
