SHIPPING BOARD SUED.
Firms Would Recover Losses
Through Fall of Exchange Rate.

TWO suits to recover loss sustained
by reason of the fall of the exchange
rate of the pound sterling have been
instituted in the District Supreme Court

Emergency Fleet Corporation I;dwa rd
l.. Eyre e Co. asks judgment for s1S,-

their loss at S5,0l9.1S
The fleet corporation. it is alleged
entered into contracts to furnish
ships for the transportation of bar
ley and failed to have the ships ready
for several days, causing a delay
from the time in which the goods
should have been lifted. The defend
ant paid the storage charges and loss
of interest, but did not allow the diff
ference in the exchange rate.
The shippers. through Attorneys
Covington & Burling, tell the court
that they drew upon the purchasers
of their grain for the purchase money
in pounds sterling and sold the drafts
to American banks. Because of the
delay. the fall in the exchange rate
caused them, they declare, TO suffer
loss in the amounts stated.

Try This If You
Have Dandruf

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp AMI rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
By morning. most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find. too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft. and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You, can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail.-Adv-

The first newspaper to start the

four on each coupon, and distributed
broadcast and the winners were de-

RAILWAY FARES LOWER


Seldom does the down trodden,
heavily tax burdened public have an
opportunity to get much joy out of
life. but if the elimination of war
revenue from transportation charges
will give rise for a smile, there will be
plenty of grinning about the first of
the year.
Rock Island passenger officials re-
ceived notice this morning THAI, in ac-
cordance with the recent tax measure
passed by congress, the war tax
charges Of per cent on passenger
fares would be dropped the first of the
year with instructions not to include
the charge on tickets sold now for use
on and after January
The special tax of per cent on
Pullman fares and per cent on freight
shipments will be eliminated on the
sam date, which will not only be
source of satisfaction to the general
public, but to ticket agents and the
railway auditing departments.
Cliff Lowe. local ticket agent for the
Rock Island, says the dropping of the
war tax from passenger tickets will cut
his work practically in two. E. L.
Copeland. secretary and treasurer of the
Santa Fe, says the elimination of the

the unlikely holders of coupons with
two winning numbers on them.
Meanwhile evening contemporaries
were becoming worried. One eYepin 8
newspaper Sunday solved the problem
by printing the winning numbers
drawn by both morning papers and
advising the public to get the winning
numbers without buying the papers.
This scheme to snatch away the fruits
of the chance promoters was nipped
before it could bear results by the or
der of Mr.. Clyne
So it is that District Attorney
Clyne's order which will take the
place of the lists of lucky numbers in
morning newspapers will cause the
smile to vanish and the Yuletide
cheer to fade from the faces of count

DEBS AND BERGER
(From Boston Transcript

For what reason and under what
conditions is an offender, under con-
viction Of crime, pardoned and set
free? Is 1t not because he is sorry for
his misdoing, and evidences a dispo-
sition to do better? 1t is a part even
of Christian .forbearance, and mercy
TO pardon one who feels no repent
ance, but on the contrary says he is
glad he committed the offense, and
would do it again? In the case of
Eugene Debs, to whom President Will
son has denied a pardon, has there
been the slightest penitence for the
act of which he was convicted or the
display of any other han i DISPOSE
tion to commit more such offences at
the first opportunity? 1t was right to
convict Debs and send him to prison
for his attempted obstruction of The
laws of the country in time of war, it
is surely right for him to stay there
Gntl his term expires or until he
feels and expresses sincere regret for
the offence of which he was proved
guilty.
Again, II must have been borne in
upon the mind of the President that
to yield, at the present moment. to an
organized drive in behalf OF the par
don Of an unrepentent offender would
have important and hurtful conse-

Of these dregs from Europe's "dreg

For It Is a well-known fact that our
present lax immigration laws, our
present unsystematic method of well
coming the riffraff of the older coun-
tries to this land, serve as orders
which the "dreg stores" OF Europe
are all too gladly filling.
Our national department OF justice
may search out undesirables after
they have landed here and taken out
their papers OF American citizenship
and deport them by the ship load
but we, as n people, cannot get away
from the knowledge that we are invit-
ing immigration OF the most profli'

all our deportations only prove the
