LUCK .FAV0RS GROOM
WHO MAKES FORTUNE
ON BR|DE'S DOWRY
After Honeymoon Value of
Wife and Currency Drops;
Pays Back Dowry.

Budapest.-(C Correspondence of The
Associated Press).-A remarkable sto-
nv of how a young Hungarian made a
profit Of 100000 crowns by speeculat-
ing with his wife's dowry and then
sending her and her dowry back to her
father has just come to light here.
Four months ago Joseph Klein. a
Young merchant of Budapest Of small
means. married Pennsylvania girl and
received with her a dowry Of 2,O0,OW
Rumanian lei (worth at present ex-
change rates about one and one-fourth
cents per lei).
The bridegroom quickly changed his
wife's dowry into Hungarian currency
and received in exchange l4,O0O,oW
crowns, the crown then being quoted
seven to the lei.
After the honeymoon the young hus--
band found that his good opinion of
both the Rumanian currency and of his
wife had declined. and that the crown
was now only five to the lei.
Mr. Klein thereupon bought back his
wife's dowery for 10000, 600 crowns and
sent her and her dowry back to her
father. By that transaction Klein
made a clear profit of 100000 crowns
and is now said to be on the lookout
for another wife.
This is an example Of how the mar
rage market here has been affected by
the fluctuation of exchange values
When the Hungarian crown sank very
low, the value of Pennsylvania. South
Hungarian and Slovak girls backed by
good Rumanian lei. Jugoslav dinars and
Czecho- slovak sokols. rose consider
ably in the eyes of the Hungarian
youths and at least as many matches
were made on the exchange as In
heaven.
Slowly, with the Improvement of the
Hungarian money. the demand for girls
from the lost provinces ahated and
Magyar girls are again very firm in the
market. Former marriages with for
eign currency girls are now being can
celled for the sake of Hungarian women.

Special to The Tribune.
Bozeman, July Harry Mason, a

Paris Hopes Yankee
Troops Will Not Be
Recalled From Rhine

Paris, July Comment in official
circles on the report that the United
States might recall the American troops
along the Rhine on July 4 was to the
effect that it would be regrettable. If
the unity of the front on the Rhine
were broken, because the presence Of
the American soldiers there is of great
moral effect, even though the United
States has not ratified the treaty OF
Versailles.
The hope was expressed that the re-
mort was untrue. 1t was held that the
United. States might quite as logically
continue to participate in the occupa-
ton, Notwithstanding the ending of the
state of war with Germany. as in the
PREPARATIONS commission, or the su-
preme council.

WORLDS CREDIT DEMANDS
WILL CENTER ON AMERICA
BY Irving Whitehouse Co,

A prominent professor of economics
recently stated he expected to see
Liberty Bonds selling at par within
three years because the showdown in
industry would make business oppor-
tunities SO rare that little capital would
be required for new undertakings, in
consequence of which, new capital
would be forced to employment in
existing or old securities.
The foregoing prediction is perfect
1y sound provided the premises are
correct: first, that capital will be ac-
cumulated within the next few years on
a scale sufficient to produce competi-
ton for AZ per cent investments,
and second, that in spite of reduced
demand for working capital, the i'm
Fortunate demands to be made by
every foreign country upon our credit
resources, will not absorb so great an
amount of investment capital at high
rates as to prevent competition for

in financing projects in all parts Of
the globe, as well as for advances to
make possible the balancing of various
Governmental budgets, we predict that
a general willingness to lend money
to our own Covenant at Az per cent
is improbable. The truth is that we
are entering upon a period when in
the ordinary course of events there
is certain to nsue more lenient atti-
tude towards capital on the part of
public officials, and the public as
well. than has been known for many
decades excepting in those undeveloped
countries, where officials are accus-
toned to fawn upon the foreign CAPT
talist in order to have him develop
natural resources previously I'M
touched.
The United States government will
be preferred above all other borrow
ers, but those who are in command of
stored-up economic wealth either in
the form Of utilities or consumabie
goods wherewith to command labor.
may be expected to exact full toll for
the use Of their capital whittier the
borrower is the United States govern
ment or not.
