HINES SUGGESTS METHOD

BY the Associs.ed P.ess.s,,-
PARIS, August 2-Walker D. Hines.
American arbitrator OF the ownership
Of German vessels in the Danube, in
making his decision today regarding
Danube chipping under the peace
treaty. took occasion to. suggest un-
osicially how-the Balkan states can
increase traffic on the Danube. by
200 900 tons barge. capacity annually
without new capital simply by saving
four days in time Of loading and un-
leading on the frontiers and eliminat-
ing unnecessary stops,
Mr.. Hines spent more than a year
studying the. Danube question. max
tant cities along the river. Extensive
Investigations were conducted from
his special Office in Vienna OF ,the
Questions :at. Issue. causing keen con-
troversy among the states bordering
the waterway, including the validity
and $4,000 horsepower in tugs made
by Serbia, Rufnanta and France dur
ing .thE last day Of the war.
The point most strongly contested, In
the controversy was whether pri-
Vately owned boats were immune from
conAscation under international law.
The. arbitrator decided that nearly all
the boats were operated for military
purposes by the Austro- Hunsaria n
war ministry, and therefore he upheld
the validity OF the seizures and con-
,fEmed the ownership OF the vessels
by Jugoslavia. RIn1anIa and France.
Mr. Hines, in his decision, also par

rnents usine the river, in PROPORTIONS s
specified by him. Some unsettled ques-
tions will be the subject of later hear

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind" August s.
Unemployment Of 100000 coal miners
daily. with many thousand others
idle much Of the time. is reported by

also maintain there is no market for
coal. adding that famine is threat
lay in their winter supply now.
Indiana mines. which produce ap-
pro1inately 25,O00. 900 tons annually,
are estimated by, officials to have
TUNED out about "10,o0Q.oo0. tons for
the flrst half OF the year, with: the
below 100000 tons the last three
months. More thar haff -of. ..the tim e
lost this year is rated by the operators
70 have been due to no market" For
the Country as whole, the soft coal
tons behind the average of the last
four years. Hard coal production is
sald to be slightly higher than in the
last several years !:

SPRoUTED GRAINS.

For hundreds of years. says the
Scientific American, the Chinese
have recognized the worth of sprout-
ed grains and seeds and have used
them in many of their dishes. Chop
suey, which contains sprouts of rice
or beans, is far better food than is
commonly believed The value Of
it lies in the fact that sprouting, like
mailing, makes the starch more d.
gestible. Sprouted grains, beans
and peas afford necessary vitamlEc>
and are satisfactory substitutes for
many of the expensive fruits and
vegetables.

Among the Himalayan mountains

exception of the British resident
and a few European officials who
live in the residcncy grounds at
Khatmandu, the capital, no one is
allowed to visit the country without
a special permit issued by the dur
bar. When the pass or permit has
been obtained visitors are obliged to
travel by one particular route and
are not allowed to 80 beyond the val
lev of khatmandu. tract Of coun-
try about Is miles wide by 20 miles
long, surrounded by high mountains.
The road into Ncpal for It's en-
tire length is purposely kept in a
bad state of repair by the durhar,
and runs over quite unnecessarily
difficult country, the idea being that
the worse the road the more difficult
it would be for attacking troops to
enter the country.
The Nepalese are fighting peo-
pie, have an excellent army and or
ganization, and are fond Of show.
both in military display and in their
religious festivals. The latter are
very numerous and, in fact, seem to
be intcrminablc. The women take
a prominent part in most of them.
Some Of the semi-military pageants
