Pitcairn Island,
 Rarely Visited
 Now on Ship Line

Pago Pago, American Samoa, Mar. 23 (by maiD. D.-Thc opening of a new ocean line has brought into communi cation with the outside world Pit cairn island, situated in the eastern part of the South Pacific, an island, which, before the construction of the Panama Canal, periiups, one of the most rarely visited places in the Seven Seas.
 The Great Circle route from Pan anna to Australia passes directly by Pitcairn Island now, and in conse- quence the once lonely islanders find themselves suddenly in close touch with world events, whereas, in times, past, they accounted themselves fortunate if in year one or two ships visited their shores.
 Pitcairn Island is inhabited by the descendants of the British sailors who more than 100 years ago by m,,- tiny seized the ship Bounty" and, setting their commander, Capt. Bligh, and his officers adrift in an open boat, returned to Tahiti, and, having induced company of natives to ac- company them, sailed away to Pit cairn where they remained undis- covered for 25 years. There are now forty families living on the island, all of them direct descendants of the mutinous white men and their Tahi- tian wives.
 The island, lying just to the southward of the Tropic of Capricorn, has emi-tropical climate and in consequence many of the fruits of the tropic an temperate zones flour ish there. This fact makes it a grateful stopping place for vessels.

Economic Collapse COnfrOnts Germany

Berlin, April 17.-Financial and economic collapse confronts Germany within year if the people do not realize the situation of the country and reform their methods of liv- ing, said Dr. Wirth, minister of the treasury, addressing the budget committee of the national assembly today.
 "If we cannot bring our financial policy in line with economic princi- ples," he exclaimed, q confess I see no way out. Another increase in wages will soon be demanded, partic- ularly by the workers on the state railroads, and I shudder to contem- plate the next railway budget.
 Gustav Noske, formerly minister of defense, emphasized< the urgency of making the country know the facts, adding:
 '"rhe people are living in a state of intoxication, and one feels helpless when he thinks of the position Ger many will be in year hence. A debacEe is certain if the people do not live most frugally."
