Gen. Motors Control
Goes to Du Points

stated that the purchase was in line
with the policy OF the bankers TO
make General Motors to the hutomo-
bile Industry what the L. $. Steel Cor
poration is to the steel industry
With control in the hands or u very
strong financial group, bankers De
Iieye that much can be done to stapi-
lizo the industry which Otherwise
would be impossible.
J. L. Morgan d Co. 1t is said. re-
fused to buy into General Motors
while the stock was in such POSI-
ton that daily fluctuations or from
$50 TO $40 a share were possible. as was
the case with the old stock. For TINS
reason the 500 par value stock was
split into no par value shares at the
time Of the Morgan purchase last
June.
At the same time a British bank
ing syndicate subscribed to 1.ooo.ooo
shares of the old stock, representing
rights on 100000 shares OF the new
no par value common stock.
The acquisition of the Durant hold
ings by the Du Points, 1t Is believed
foreshadows a change in the directo
rate of the company as we'll as in Tn
officials. A member OF the nrIn OF
J.. i. Morgan & Co.. in discussing a
possible change, yesterday said:
Mr.. Durant is now over sixty years
of age. He is wealthy man and has
worked hard all his life and l know
he is anxious for a rest and an ex-
tended vacation. 1t is quite possible
that he may be elected chairman Oh
the board of directors
Pierre 5. du Pont is now chairman
OF the board of the General Motors
Company. However. in connection
with the changes that will follow the
sale of the stock the bankers point
out that nothing definite has been de-
cided upon and it will take a little
time to work out the further details.

Seek Rare Fish in the Rivers of
 South America

Bloomington, Ind, June 5.-Perhaps the biggest fishing trip of the year is that on which Dr. William Ray AL len of the University of Indiana has set forth.
 Dr. Allen is on his way to South America to explore it's streams Tor rare fishes.
 He expects to remain there for six months or more fishing with net, hook dynamite or poison-any way to get the most fish in the shortest time.
 The Indiana fisherman expects to be month going from Callao. Peru, to Porto Jessup. There he plans to secure a canoe and with the aid of Indians to reach the region of the Ucagle river, where gasoline launches can navigate. He expects then to descend to the head of steamer navi- inp in August.
 More fishinr about Inuitos in the Maranon, as this part of the Amazon is called, is on his schedule. Thence he proposes to work his way up where the river breaks through the Cordil- 1eras. at the Ponce DeMauseri, and WILL JcCIcSS IHc COIdi''CicS CO Sttt the coast in northern Peru or south err Ecuador.
 The expenses of Dr. Aliens trip are being borne in part by the University of Indiana, and it is called it's cen tennial expeditionl to South America as the university is this year cele- brating the one hundredth anniver- sary of it's founding. Dr. Aliens home is at Hartford City, Ind.
 If financial arrangements are com pleted, the second half of the centen- nial expedition is expected to sail about the middle of June to complete the work of previous years. It will be in charge of Dr. Carl H. Eigen. mann, head of the department of Zoo. logy, who has conducted dozen prev. ious expeditions to South America Dr. Eigermann hoped to determine whether the fauna of southern Peru is like that of northern Peru or like that of Chile and to explore the largest of the Pacific slope rivers, the Rit ] Santa

MARY PICKF0RD,
 THE PROPHET
 OF GLADNESS

Do you think you have a lot to be sad about? Do you believe that Old Man Gloom has chased joy out of your life forever? Are you bowed down under a heavy load of business responsibilities that have tendency to pessimize your good nature? Has Misfortune tried to make a pal of you?
 If such is the case, then don't fail to see Mary Pickford in ''Pollyanna.' This is Miss Pickford's first photo play since she joined the "Big Four" and will be shown at the Best Thea ter, beginning tomorrow for three days only.
 There is no better tonic for those who have been the victims of bad luck and who may as a result be down hearted or even resentful against fate, than this remarkable play. It carries the message of good cheer to one and all. pointing out that no predicament is so bad but that it might be worse.
 "Play the glad game all through life," that is the theme of the story. This philosophy began with the arrival at Pollvanna's humble home of Christian barrel which did not contain single useful article. Pollyana's father taught the little girl to apply the "Glad" philosophy to every circumstance that arose.
 As time went on she became the Prophet of Gladness. and with all the sincerity of childhood proselyted along the Pathway of Life, winning many converts to this new religion.
 And if you will go to see this splendid screen play, Pollyanna will carry her message to you. When you leave the theater YOU will feel re- freshed; you will have new vigor and vim with which to tackle the problems that it is necessary for you to work out.

Palestine Has No Postage Stamp to
 Call It's Own

London, June 5.-Palestine is now the only nation which has no postage stamp of it's own. But representative of the Zionist government here have informed London philatelists that this anomaly promises soon to be recti- fled, for with the establishment of Palestine as the national home of the Jewish nation, it is believed little time will be lost in emulating the ex- amples of other small nations called into being by mandates of the peace conference by the issuance of distinc- tive stamps.
 Pending the preparation of definite designs, stamps sold by British army postoffices in adjacent former enemy territory are being untilized by over printing with the word Palestine"

Parisian Chic
 Plays Havoc in
 Omaha Society

Omaha, Neb., June 5.-Introduc- tion of Parisian "chic,' with French war brides teaching language class es, into the Alliance Franchise, is causing a sharp difference of ooinion among local members.
 One group headed by Madame Au- gust Borglum, founder of the so- ciety here, says dignity is being lost The other group headed by Dr. Fe- lix Despecher, clans that the part ies and "get together affairs" at. tract more members than an exclusive program of lectures on classic French literature and the history of the ia. nous institutions of France.
 "I think the society is losing sight of it's original purpose" said Mad anne Borglum. "Too much emphasis is put upon parties and 'classes-by. warbrdes,' I don't see why the war brides should give classes while we have such splendid teachers o1 French in our high schools.
 "Flippancy seems to have become the keynote of the present work o1 the Alliance. We want to get back to serious study, though I have nc objection to occasional social gather. ings. They can be kept dignified. Ii the other members do not want tc work along these lines I am per fectly willing to withdraw, and lei them have their own way"
 "The Alliance was dying slowly said Dr. Despercher. "We had lee lures but no one came. Very few people were willing to exert them selves, and the talks we have had learned and instructive though they were, found no hearing. Our aim is to attract them first. and than can be done bv naming it more social affair. The classes which the wal brides are conducting now are meant to teach conversational French as ii is spoken in Paris"
