In a barren and waterless waste in British East Africa is what appears to be a lake covered with a coating of snow partly thawed and then frozen again. It is in reality a deposit of soda. Travellers traversing this dis trict in the dry season find their shoes burned and the sharp spikes of the soda will pierce any but the thickest soles. During the rainy sea- son the lake is a beautiful pink.

Copyright 1921.
WASHINGTON, May 19.-president
Harding wants the Knox resolution de
claring state of peace between the
United States and Germany passed by
the house. but he has found it necessary
to approve certain changes in it from the
form in which it was passed by the senate.
These changes are fundamental and will
come as q surprise to those Germans re
siding in America who believed the Knox
resolution would automatically end the
powers of the alien property custodian,
and that the American government here
after would simply hold the GERMAN prop
erty without exercising any of the broad
powers of sale or supervision which were
entrusted by the trading with the enemy
act. The language OF the Knox reSolu-
ton as passed by the senate simply says
that all enemy property now in the pos
session of the American government shall
be retained But ii develops that the
alien property custodian, Colonel Thomas
W. Miller. advised President Harding and
Attorney General Daugherty that certain
German interests We're of the impression
passed the American government would be
prohibited from selling any German prop
erty or otherwise administering it.
Necessary to Sell,
The fact is the trading with the enemy
act permits the alien property custodian
To sell at any time any German property
held by our government. Sometimes when
the property is deteriOrating or some other
potent reason arises making a sale neces-
sary, the alien property custodian dis
poses Of the property and holds the pro-
ceedS in trust. All this money and unsold
property is held by the alien property Gus
todian until congress specifically provides
for its return To Germany. Congress has
not tackled the subject yet for the good
reason that German property held by the
American government is a sort of club
which is held by Washington over Ger
many. in the event that claims such as

Watch Out for
bad Money
CORNERS OF SIS BILLS ARE SPLIT,
NUMERALS CUT OUT AND
NUMERALS INSERTED.

Keep your eyes open for any $40
bills that may be presented to you
Crooks are working in Iowa and Min
nesota. They were in Des Moines a
few days ago, and $500 of this money
had been discovered at the banks be-
fore closing hour. =.
Bank officials declare it to be the
work of an artist of exceptional abili-
ty; the work being smooth and ex-
cept for one detail the changers very
hard to detect.
In the change two twenty, one five
and one dollar note are used. The
$40 bills are torn, carelessly at one
end. The numerals and the word
twenty" are torn from one and the
numerals only from the opposite end
Of the other. Enough of the TWEEN
ties is left to make them redeemable
at the banks while the torn-off ends
are used in raising the fives.
The corners of the SIS bills are split,
the numerals neatly cut out and the
numerals from the larger bills insert
ed, thus the numerals show on both
sides of the note. The word twenty
and a part of the dollars" was past
ed on the top of the "five dollars" as
it was not necessary in this case to
have the opposite side showing.
The numerals. from the SIS bills are
then inserted by the same method in
to the 81 bills, making them fives.
The scheme netted a profit of $40 on
each job.
While the work was smooth enough
to put it over on the unsuspecting
public, it did not get past the bank
clerks.
The fact that a $40 note has a pic
ture of Grover Cleveland, while the
five has one Of Abraham Lincoln made
