Star-SpanuIed British Product.

1t came recently TO the attention of
the American chamber of commerce IN
London that British firm was using
the American flag and words and
phrases indicating American origin for
the advertising. container and bottle
labels of a wholly British prepara-
ton. Communication of this fact TO
the British board Of trade saw all
traditions of departmental red tape
shattered when the board of trade
rang up by telephone instead of fol-
lowing the usual formal tortuous
channels Of communication. After OBJ
tanning further particulars the firm
concerned was called TO account and
has agreed to refrain from the objec-
tionable practice in future.-The Ma

PALMERC CUTS
PHILA. FORCE
Department of Justice Staff
Reduced One-Half by
Order.
CBy Public Ledger serviceD

Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. 16.-The
corps of Investigators at the local
office of the department of justice
was reduced to a mere skeleton OF
its former strength today as orders
for the dismissal of a number of the
best known men at the local office
became effective.
The orders which virtually deplete
the number of men employed in
tracking down radicals, investigat-
ing profiteers and other Federal Of
lenses that fall within the jurisdic-
ton Of the department, were re-
Ceived from Washington.
, Already the AK has cut war
time staff of fcrty-two men down to
mere handful of nine men, OF
whom about six are active. The
dismissals are effective on Septem-
Der /, but men are being granted va
cations or other time due them.
Lack of appropriations is the rea-
son cited for the sweeping reduc-
tions IN the investigating staff which
s now virtually on the basis IL was
Irior to the beginning of the world
var.
The letters ordering the dismissal,
said the men best adapted 10 the
work were to be retained.
The immediate reduction here is
20 per cent. but previous dismissals
make the present force practically
Cne-quarter OF what it was in war
times and :he hectic days following
the advent of national prohibition.
Tho depleted staff here would en-
tail heroic efforts on the part Of the
remaining men If raids similar to
the radical desCents OF last winter
were to be ordered. The profiteer
activities are also at a standstill but
the work of keeping an eye on the
radicals in this vicinity is still as
pressing rs ever.
