CARELESSNESS CAUSES FIRES
Greater Caution Must Be Exercised
by Owners II They Wish to
Keep Cars Intact.

Many an insurance payment has
been sought due to the carelessness OF
the automobile owner when he works
at his machine. Allowing leakage of
gasoline In the garage, smoking
cigar where the "gas" fumes may ex.
plode, letting oil and grease accumu-
late at danger polnts-near the ex-
haust pipe, for instance. These are
some of the causes Of fire on the auto
mobile or in the garage. Great eau
tion should be observed at all times
If the owner wishes to keep his car
and garage intact.

MOBS OF IDLE STORM CAFES
 AT MONTREAL
(By United Pressl


 Montreal, Jan. 21-Protest against unemployment and the high price of food took concrete form last night when a group of 300 men paraded downtown and entered many restau- rants, demanding that the managers serve them free meals. They also de- manded that their leaders be released from prison.
 When the unemployed entered res taurants, the managers ordered food served, but in the meantime tele- phoned for police. A squad of 60 was sent into the district and the crowd dispersed. The unemployed grabbed what food was in sight and stuffed it in their pockets before fleeing before the small force.
 It was reported that the unemploy- ed will continue their campaign until the government or private concerns furnish them with work from which living can be derived.

 Washington, Jan. 21.-The fight in congress over the reduction in the size of the American regular army, which was thought to have been set tied by the adoption of Senator News resolution providing for an army of 175,000 men, threatened to disturb congress again today, when Representative Anthony of Kansas announced that the army appropria- tion bill would carry sufficient funds for the maintenance of an army of only 150,000 men.
 Representative Kahn of California, chairman of the house committee on military affairs, said he expected to protest against the reduced appropria- tion and to make a fight to amend the appropriation bill in order to provide for an army of 175,000 as agreed upon in the New resolution.

Vinna, Jan. 21-Mobs such as formed at Paris during the French revolution gathered last night and to- day in Vienna, frightening citizens of all ranks and sendig profiteers by the hundreds to the country for safety. The paraders followed wag- ons upon which had been erected re- plicas of galows, and threats were shouted and martial airs sung as the menacing procession wended it's way down the main avenues of the city.
 Police attempted no interference, and the parade was orderly insofar as concerned violence
 While the parade5 were in progress, Vlennese labor organizations served an ultimatum on the government, al lowing three days for the reduction of prices of the necessities of life.
 The parades and the labor threat combined led to the belief that viol- ence will be attempted unless condi- tions are bettered through govern ment action. Stores and houses where provisions are stored are under careful guard. The flight of the profiteers left many stores and shops entirely closed and with only such protection as afforded by police.

 Italy, Spain, Portugal, and now France, via Corsica, claim Columbus as their own, which moved a cores pondent to remark that although the present generation will not see the fifth century of the discovery of America, it should be a splendid cele- bration, since so many European countries now take a personal interest in the discoverer."
