MAKE NAILS0F
 BARRED WIRE
 BARRICADES

RIGA, Latvia, Dec. 20 (by Associ- ated Press) A use has at last been found here for the vast quantities of barbed wire left on the battlefields of Eastern Europe. Riga inventors have devised machinery for stamping nails out of the wire and hope by this. method to relieve the shortage of nails in the Balkan states. ~"-
 Riga has been the center of so much fighting throughout the war that most of the lakes, streams and roads about the city are thoroughly lined with barbed wire entanglements and great numbers of full spools of wire are lying about. The expense of collecting wire for making nails is but slight Many of the piers at this port are stacked high with wire suitable for nail making.

BLUE DIAMOND MINES
 PROFIT PRODUCERS

TORONTO, Dec. 20.-The purchase of the Blue Diamond coal mines, comprising 3,400 acres near Brule, Alberta, for $450,000, and the Cana dian Coalfields, Limited, owning s. 320 acres, for $1,500,000, was ratified at the annual meeting of the McIn- tyre Porcupine Mining Company and at the special general meeting of the Temiskaming Mining Company. Of the total purchase price $6OO,OOO has already been paid and the remaining s1 ,OOO, ,0O0 is payable in 15 years from the earnings of the Canadian Coal fields Limited The Blue Diamond mines are now producing at profit, over 400 tons daily and by August. 1921, it is expected, with the new ma cLinery already ordered, the daily output will be 2000 tons for which there is ready market. The ratifi- cation means that Mcintyre and Tenn iskaming each hold a half interest in both coal companies. The old board of directors on Mcintyre was re- 1 elected, with the exception of Sir 1 Henry M. Pellat, who was replaced by Joseph Errington.

GERALDINE FAIRFAX AS ALASKA DANCE HALL
 GIRL IN NEW PICTURE

Tn "The Woman God Forgot" we saw Geraldine Farrar as an Aztec princess; in "The Devil Stone" she was an Irish Colleen; in Turn of the Wheel" she appeared as an American society girl, and in "The Hell Cat" western girl vertically diamond in the rough"
 Is there no end to her versatility? Apparently not, for she's coming now in still another role-a dance hall girl of Alaska. And as she played to per lection, the various parts of princess, society girl, colleen and cowgirl, so she interprets the new role with charm, abandon and fascination that can be expected only of such famous artist as Farrar.
 But the dance hall scenes are only small part-a throw back in retro spect-of her latest super picture, Shadows" booked for tomorrow night at the Empress.
 It's an intense drama, the story of a beautiful woman happily married, a leader of fashionable New York so- ciety, across whose sunlit present the shadow of an earlier dark Alaskan night falls.
 The story of a woman at bay-of one woman, two men and the great 1 eternal law of love. How she meets the emergency, and forces the man himself to pay the price, forms tho crux of one of the most dramatic situ- ations ever screened. 1 An absorbing play splendidly handled, is the universal verdict-a play that no one should miss seeing a play that's appearing tonight at the Empress.

Public To Be Educated
10 HIGHER Diamond Prices

The public will learn more about
diamonds, their cost of production, cut
ting, etc, within the next few months
II plans now under consideration by
leading diamond dealers and wholesale
leweiers are carried out SUCCESSFULLY
The diamond trade is reported to
realize the neces nv Of oducating the
public to higher prices. During the war
and the period following the armistice,
UP until this summer, diamonds moved
into consumptive channels without
much effort on the part CT dealers. Ad-
vances in prices of diamonds wore ac-
cepted without resistance, as were in
- 1ses n the price os neas y all cem-
n Aties.
Now, with textiles, shoes. sugar,
wheat. corn and other commodities on
i decline, the diamond merchants are
faced with rising prices. 1t is expected
that various direct-to-the-c consumer ad-
vertising campaigns will enlighten the
public of the dwindling production Of
the diamond fields caused by labor diff
fculties and the necessity of digging
deeper into the earth to find the pre-
cl0uS stones

Reserve Board Sees
Tide Turning in
Credit Expansion
Awakened Public Is Taking
Stocks, Curtailing lis
Expected Loans and Using
Far Better Judgment

WASHINGTON, Aug. 25.-Evdence
of a turning Of the tide of expansion
was given tonight by the Federal Re
serve Board in statement which de-
clared that further expansion of bank
credit apparently has been checked "
The board added, however, that appll-
cation of the policy of restricting loans
to essential requirements had not re-
duced the volume of loans and dis
counts of the country's banking insti-
tutiors.
There has been an awakening of the
public to the credit needs, according
to the boards view, with the result
that people are taking stocks, curtail-
ing their expected loans and exercising
generally more wholesome judg-
ment.'
The result sought to be ACCOMPLISHED d
by the board when it asked the banks
to restrict the credit Of so-called non
essential and speculative enterprises
is being attained, but not without the
aid Of higher interest rates, 1T was
said
In connection with tne statement that
expansion had been checked, the board
mentioned the adoption Of a scale of
progressive rediscount rates by four
Federal Reserve Banks. Atlanta, St
Louis, Kansas City and Dallas, which
was made possible under the Phelan
act The graduated rediscount rates
have not been in effect long enough for
their operation to sho} definite re-
suits, but officials are watching them
closely because Of the expected effect
on the general credit situation.
Application of this method Of re-
strictlng credit was held to be Of aid
IN compelling alment Of loans TO
the customers of banks because the
banks, in turn, would not be able TO
obtain their requirements without paw
ing the higher interest rates.
