ARMY CANNED GOODS
BOON TO FRENCHWOMAN

PARIS. June II. - The vast stock OF
canned goods left I'm France by the
American Army and now being sold to
the public is proving a boon to the
French housewife. She is now able to
go to her usual grocery store and buy
canned goods--really canned In Amer
lea. and containing labels In real Eng
lish--at price which is sometimes 300
per cent. cheaper than the same variety
OF food canned by the French.
String beans. salmon tuna fish, corned
beef, potted ham, combinations OF vege-
tables and meat of various kinds and
many others are now obtaiDable from
the stock of things the American Army
left behind and sold to the French Gov
ernIAent.
Many OF these things-pork and beans.
for instance-were virtually unknown to
the French until the American Army
came to France. All arc products of the
best known American packers. and IL is
striking that the average French house,
wife says American canning methods
are better than the French.

Spirit Message Forced
Confession of Guilt

Berlin, June Is.
THE mysterious message of a
clairvoyant so frightened
Otto Heese, a Dresden shoe
maker, that he will sit four years
in prison. He was accused sof
choking his wife to death after
quarrel, but succeeded in putting
up such a strong denial that It
did not seem likely that he could
be convicted. Then a clairvoyant
brought a message from the
spirit world denouncing him as
guilty, and this so worked on the
prisoners mind that he broke
down and made full confession.

three months setback In the Wimbourne

paid.
But Upwards hopes went downward
when the Magistrate told him the court
had 20 ear for music and sent him to
Jail to the tune of hard labor.

young man stepped out from behind

BANK FAYORS LOANS
IN GOLD TO EUROPE
Holds Deprecated Currency
Must Be Shelved for New
Banking System.

After stating that some or the cur
rencies OF Europe are nearing stage
at which II will be impossible to use
them as med lums OF exchange. the Ma
tional City Bank says in its December
letter that the fundamental require
ments for currency reform are that the
currency be divorced from the fiscal
needs of Governments and that paper
money be made redeemable In something
which "all the world esteems OF real
value" Apparently there is no way out.
says the letter. for nations whose cur
rencies are most depressed except by
cutting loose entirely from their cur
rencies, (which have become so vast In
volume and so deprecated in value that
they would sink any new monetary sys-
tenn that attempted to become re-
sponsible for them"
new banking organization on gold
basis. the bank notes, have been sug-
gested in case OF Austria. while other
plans along the same line have come
UP for consideration.
THE plans" the bank adds, have
the great merit OF offering a currency
not involved in the Governmental
finances and not attached TO the great
mass OF outstanding issues. 1t is be-
lieved that I'm all of these countries
there are considerable amounts of gold
in hiding that would come to the new
institutions and that outside capital
would improve the opportunity to en-
ter the countries and do business on
a gold basis. The difficulties attendant
upon any such change are great, but
somehow the change must be made"
The bank holds that the excess above
the normal share of the United States
in the worlds gold supply would do
this country more good than 1t does
at present If used in a helpful manner
for putting Europe on its feet The
best way, II Is suggested. would be to
lend the gold itself. The banks could
hardly invest deposits in such a way.
