ITALIAN RATS STEAL JEWELS

ROME, July 23-Mrs. Helen Wen ming, an Alsatian residing in a fashionable hote! here, recently re- ported to the police that she had missed pearl necklace from her jewel case. Detectives interviewed hotel employees and everything was done to find out what had become of the gems, but no clue could be found at the time. A day or two later, however, one of the men searching about the hooks and corners of Mrs. Wenning's rooms found a piece of the necklace near a tiny hcle in the floor. A thorough investigation was then made and from all that was found, the detectives concluded that rats mad stolen away with the lady's string of pearls. ..: ....

CAPITALISTS ARE ACCUSED
 OF FORMING SUGAR TRUST

HAVANA, June 15-The news paper La Discussion has published a charge that "capitalistic plot" to dominate the Cuban sugar industry has been formed and that all the Cuban sugar centrals will be owned by foreigners. The newspaper asserts that when the Cuban sugar business is found in foreign hands, it is al most certain that the price of sugar will rise as if by magic and that the business will be on an even more stupendous scale than now.
 When American capitalists began an invasion to secure control of Cuban centrals'', the paper contin- ues, they foresaw an era of pros perity and bought, without sparing their millions, as many sugar pro perties as were for sale. The price of the product rose to B cents, then it was seen that good part of the crop remained in Cuban hands and that the Cubans aspired to ob- tain the highest possible price. Then the price fell like an avalanche from B to three cents.
 First bank crisis, then a cur rency crisis. There was no money to pay for refining, nobody to buy this years crop from the Cubans.
 Our sugar men now find them selves owing large sums of money to the banks. They have not been able to sell their crop. With the termination of the moratorium will disappear the restriction against pending commercial obligations. The sugar men will have to pay or go bankrupt. The banks are not inter ested in holding sugar centrals.

MEXICAN PRESIDENT UNLIKE
 HIS sNoBBIsH PREDECESSOR

MEXICO CITY, July 16-Presi- dent Obregon has shown on numcr- ous occasions lately that there is nothing of the aloofness and unap- proachability about him that charact- erized his predecessor, Carranza. He frequently dimes in public with his wife and at one cafe where there is dancing he may be found at times escorting a friend in promenade, although he does not dance.
 At recent wrestling match he aroused much applause when he quietly slipped into a box, and was not at all backward in picking his man to win.
 He still refuses to use Chapulte- pee Castle, the beautiful presidential home, for a residence, prefcrring to live in modest cottage nearby. The castle, however, is frequently used for small parties and the circle of Obregon friends is well entertained.
 The President disdains pcmp and show and even the few state re- captions he has held have been modest. Always a good horseman, General Obregon may be seen almost any Sunday morning on the briLle path and on days of fiesta he ire quently joins the automobile parade through Chapultepec Park.
 At no time does he carry a body guard, not even on a recent national holiday when rumors of revolution were rife, On that day he passed through thousands of spectators in an open carriage.

The News dislikes continually to be finding fault with the Alaskan Engineering Commission, but we feel that protest should be made against the closing of the Government hospi- tai at Nenana. We appreciate the fact that the necessity for conserv- ing railroad funds is becoming daily more urgent and that hospital re- quirements as a part of the rail road project are diminishing as the work progresses; but the hospital is a necessary part of the community in which 1t is located, and the fact should not be ignored that there still remains much dangerous work ahead in this division, necessitating a continuance of provision for the care of Government patients until such time as uninterrupted rail communication will make possible the treatment of emergency cases at points farther than Nenana from the dangerous Canyon district
 So long as there remains hazard ous work to be done, the Alaskan Engineering Commission owes it to its employees to provide them with every safeguard and with every facility for caring for them in time of need. The saving of a single life, through having proper hospi- tai care within reach would justify many times the cost of continuing an established hospital in operation.
 It is true the Nenana hospital has not yet been closed, but it $ in the minds of the officials of the Commission to close the institution at a very early date. And it might be that no serious consequences will result, but we believe the risk in volved in such step should not be considered lightly Adequate protec- tion to life and limb should come ahead of dollars.

BRITISH DIR!CIBLEs AWAIT
 PURCHASERS IN ENGLAND

LONDON, June 13--Dirigible air ships appear to be 1T little demand heIe. A number ot them that cost the British government a mint of money to build are now practically going begging. ..--.:.
 The Air Ainistry announced some time ago tAat 1t Wa prepared to give up airships if they were not taken ever by private persons for commercial purposes It now states hat it has been dec ded that unless an offer hat amounts to something is received "efore August |. all its airship activities will be discontinued.
 The airships, material and stations will then be handed over to the Dis posals Board to get rid of, as the Air Ministry, it is stated in the official report, 'does not feel justi- fled in continuing expenditures on this service"
 The Air Ministry offers to sell the RICO, R-33, R-36, R-37 and the former German airships LII and L-64.

l. has come to the notice of The News that there is some opposition to the proposal to incorporate, but we have not heard the arguments of those who are opposing it. The News has advocated incorporation because there appeared to be no other way out of the difficulty in which we will find ourselves when the Alaskan Engineering Commission ceases next month to exercise its jurisdiction over the affairs of the town. Without a town organization of our own, we will not have lights for our streets next winter, or any lights at all, for that matter, un- less we go back to candles and lamps; there will be no water for fire protection, and without fire pro- tection there will be no insurance also, if there is no water, it will necessary to abandon our sewerage system, than which there is no bet ter in the North.
 These public services will be dis continued if we do not incorporate, for the very simple reason that there will be no one to pay for them. There will be no town organization to foot the bills and we doubt very much if the money could be raised in any other manner. And without the additional revenue from street lighting and water for the fire mains there will not be sufficient for the operation of the Commissions power plant. The only way out would be for the Commission to continue to operate the plant at loss, which

The best that we can hope for from the steamship companies is the worst of it. We hopeful that, after beating down the wages of the marine workers, the steamship companies would give Alaska a lit tie benefit of the big saving made in the cost of operation. But the benefit, as usual, is retained by the monopoly. A report coming to The News says the companies have very graciously announced that "it is not their intention to advance rates this season." And this, too, in spite of the fact that the volume of Alaska business this year is considerably greater than it was a year ago. And then they wonder at Washington why development in Alaska is back ward.

they have said they will not do after the first of August.
 That is why The News favors incorporation and because we believe in going ahead instead of backward. But we may be wrong in our con- clusions. There may be objections to incorporation which we have not taken into account and, if there are, we would like to see them put for ward in order that both sides of the question may be given publicity.
 The columns of The News are open always for the discussion 3f questions of public interest, and we believe this is one question which should be discussed thoroughly and considered well before final action $ taken.

LEADERS READY
 TO co TO SOUTH AMERICA

RENAL, Esthonia, June S-Ac- cording to recently intercepted cor respondence from Communist off, elias in Moscow to Communist re- presentatives abroad, advising them of the "inside situation" in Russia. South America is looked upon as a final haven of refuge by many of the less hopeful Bolshevik leaders in event Russia becomes too hot for them.
 One of these letters, recently pub lished in a Reval newspaper. the Poslednie Novosti, advises one of the officials friends, who now apparently is in Germany, to convert your valuables into dollars as frequently as you can, or better still, into South American currency"
 "The Octobrists", the letter adds, meaning by them those Communists who participated in the October, .1917, revolution, "are frequently sending their families abroad. Soon, it may be, I shall send my wife across to you, in which case try to put her up as best you can".
 Referring to the political situation this Communist wrote: "Illitch (by whom he meant Lenine, that being his middle name by which he is popularly known in Russia) is weak ening. zinovieff las grown too fat. Trotzky alone remains as of old the unrecognized Napoleon, but he is 'evolutionizing' also"
 In connection with the sending abroad of the families of the Oct obrists'', this letter goes on: twill  you kindly keep a detailed account of their arrivals and of their means! Further, by a decision of the mili- tary department of the party, I want you to withdraw from the banks all the deposits at your dis posal and put them in safe hands. Bring to Switzerland one-third of the iron fund and hand it to B.. The rest can be left in Germany for any eventuahties."
 The writer constantly refers to the ruling councils of the Bolsheviki as "the Olympians", and remarks that tour Olympus is going the pace toe fast"
 From January" he says, the situation in the council of the party and in the Central Committee has come to point to the last degree. The result of these conflicts was the expulsion of Comrades Krylenks. tch-Bourvietch, Dubov, Blumen- thai and many others. This was the last gesture of the gay party gods. For a word said against Hitch. Kres- tinsky or Zinovieff, even not in pub lie, estracism is imminent ? ~:--.

Much has been said by the
press of the State and various
names have been suggested as
probable candidates at the COM
ing November election, all Of
them being gentlemen of the
highest type. None, however,
has met with more favorable
comment than that of Mr.. w. S.
Gordy, Jr., Of Wicomico coun-
W. Looking over the field it
would be hard to find man
more fitted to fill the position
than Mr.. Gordy. Although a
young man (now az years Of
age) he has had much to do
with matters of finance. having
been identified with one of the
leading banking institutions of
Wicomico County for the las:
twenty-five years. His freedom
from political differences make
him a desirable candidate from
the standpoint of popularity
and his life generally is and has
always been above reproach.
