who have the contract for the street
paving, is here now and he reports
that machinery and material for com
mencing the work right away is on

It is learned from Mr.. Burch that
instead of having the stone for the
curbing cut at the quarry, it will be
shipped here in the rough and the
stone cutters brought here to do the
work. This will greatly augment the
pay roll of the company on the con
struction work to be done, and will
be welcome news to the merchants.
From their representative it is learned
that it is the policy Of the company
to favor the community in which they
are doing the work in every way pos

DENLY Calls Haitian
Charges "Rot''
(By U. S. Press)

Washington, May 20.-Another
series Of charges of mise onduct OF
American Marines in Haiti was made
to the Navy Department last week
by H. Pauleus Sannon, formerly Halt
ian secretary of foreign affairs, and a
delegation Of Haitians. Secretary Den
by said: 'It is the same old rot and
am tired Of hearing this thing occur,
be disproved and then come up AGAIN. -
Mr. DENLY said that the conduct of
the marines had been above reproach
and a credit to the corps. When he
visited Haiti recently on tour OF in.
spection he saw evidence on every
hand, he declared, that convinced him
of the desirability Of the continued
presence of the marines.

Tra4satlantic
Traffic
(By U. S. Pressl

Washington, May 2o.-Already the
shipping agencies bookings show Il
demand for Accommodations that is
rapidly approaching prewar dimensions.
The volume of passenger traffic will
probably more than double the last
year s record. It is estimated that
3OO,0 900 Americans will visit France
this year and that most of them will
go on to Italy. The ships leaving
New York are crowded with passen-
gers, and there is so much confidence
in the maintainence Of the ruch that
new service Of transatlantic lines is
scheduled to commence operations this
week. Despite marine strikes and de-
preston in other branches of shipping,
the passenger boats are evidently IL
for a busy season.

Libau, Eethonia, May 1S.-Russians
who leave America. either as deportees
or willingly in hope Of finding a new
land or promise in Soviet Russia. re-
ceive their first hard jolt on being
turned over to the Bolshevik mission
which greets them here and arranges
their transportation to Moscow.
Many Of them who have signed a
statement i'll America that they desire
to go to Russia accost American con-
sular and Red Cross officials here, ar
ter they have had few experiences
with the Bolsheviki, and ask that they
may go back to the United States.
The Bolshevik personnel here con-
|sists Of about Is persons. AS soon as
the boat arrives with Russia bound
passengers aboard, agents Of the Boil
shevik consulate board it and ques-
tlOn all russians ABOARD. Every ef-
fort is made to prevent anarchists
from landing. Those who are permit
ted to board the train for Moscow are
generally told that they should then
give up all their extra money and
extra clothing to help the Bolshevik
cause.
Some Of the enthusiastic ones 90
this, and, in return, they are given
coupons emitting them to meals in
Russia for periods Of time commen-
surate with the amounts they nave

money, the Bolshevik consulate
''changes'' their foreign currency for
them at an official rate, giving them
Russian rubles which they find gener-

Profiteeriing
Regulated
By Italian
Government

Rome, May 2O-An attempt is be-
ing made here to curb outrageous ex
actions Of profiteess--by establishing
arbitral commissions which have pow
er to compel traders to refund exor-
bitant profits and to impose unusual
forms Of punishment.
One method of bringing profiteers
to terms is to first compel them to
restore their ill-gotten profits and then
display for one month in their shops
an official account of their goug1ng
methods and the punishment imposed
upon them.
These steps are the results Of pub
lie evaporation over the excessive
profits taken by retailers.
The italian government first tried
other methods to shame the Roman
shopkeepers into charging only a fair
and honest profit. One Of these eff
forts was to compel the retailers to
publish the price they asked for every
article; but it was of no avail
Now the people are restoring to the
new provincial arbitral commission

chemists who had charged from 47S

The arbitral commission compelled
him to restore to the buyer all excep,

record Of the case against him.
