AMERICAN DERELICTS
SHOW UP IN HAVANA

Havana, Oct. 26.-About the only
persons seen on the streets of Ha-
yana who show symptoms Of over
indulgence i'm intoxicants are Ameri-
cans. This does not mean, however,
that all the Americans who come here
drink to excess.
Beer and light wires are 30 much q
part of the Latin life that it has no
intoxicating effect. They drink mod
erateIy. But some visitors from the
dry land seem to drink constantly,
oEce they find q bar.
To Americans, however, the most
and sickening picture is
the hobo from home. a hopeless,
wretched figure that infegts hotel
lCbbies. His panhandling is brazen.
They pick out people speaking their
own tongue. and without shame boldly
announce that they want money for
drinks. They long ago discarded the
appeal for help TO get the other shirt
from the laundry.
Most of these unfortunates did not
follow their flag; they followed the
whisky trail. generally as stowaways
or in ship crews. They deserted, once
within swimming distanee of the
docks. But for passport regulations,
Havana police authorities say there
would be hundreds here from the
states with thirst and no visible
means of support.
Cuba happens to be the nearest
foreign country" TO the states, and
government officials here declare that
much of the growing travel is due to
the fact that the island isn't dry. It
is big item of revnue, and has help
ed to put mp prices for everything.

MANY COUNTERFEIT
POLISH PASSPORTS

Paris, Oct. 22.-Scores of counter
felt Polish passports have been issued
in the last few weeks to persons GO
ing to the United States, according to
the Paris police who say they were
sold for from 500 to 1000 francs to
persons TO whom the authorized Pol
ish consulate refused to give vises.
A travelling bag full of blank forms
and rubber stamps. one Of which was
the counterfeit American form, was
taken by the police who watched a
bogus consulate until a man known as
the former Russian Lieutenant Szi-
mansky went there for his outfit. This
brought about the arrest of his two
confederates.
