BULGARIA OFFERS
 RICH FIELD FOR
 AMERICAN MONEY

Varna. Bulgaria, Jan. 30 The Bulgarian government invites Amer cans to come to Bulgaria tc build shipyards, grain elevators and har- Dor improTementsZ at Varna on the Black Sea and to establish indus trial enterprises at other pointh.
 Russia before many years will e. merge from her present state of dis organization and that she will re- quire many ships which could be conveniently built at Varna.
 Minister of the Interior, told the correspondent one of the greatest opportunities for enterprising Amer jeans existed in the canning, sugar, fishing, forest and mining industries. He said huge profits awaited Amer jeans who might establish cannin g factories for the enormous quanti- ties Cf fish that swarmed the Black Sea, the Danube and other rivers; and for the packing of compressed beef, fruits and vegetables in which the country was so rich. There was not single canning industry in the state. he declared.
 We have enormous forest areas where it will be necessary only to build narrow-gauge railways to pro- duce some of the finest timber and paper-pulp in the world" said M. Radoloff. I've are prepared to give in these regions. We feel the Uuited States knows us better than any oth- CT foreign power. That's the reason We want its business men, capita lists and engineers to help us de- velop our natural resources"

SALVATION GIRLS CAN'T WEAR TOO
 SHORT SKIRTS

Chicago, Jan. 30.-The skirts of Salvation Army lassies must not be more than seven inches about the street level, according to an order is here today by Commissioner William Peart, leader of the organization in 15 midwest states.
 "A few years ago we were trying to persuade our women to wear them shorter,' said Commissioner Peart in commenting upon the order. "The skirt that trails in the dirt gathering germs is a menace to it's wearer's S health; but the skirt that flaps around the knees is pretty much of a men ace to the modesty of the woman who wears it. The skirt is about the only thing which doesn't appear to be coming down these days and a back to normalcy drive on the too short dress will do a lot to protect the morals of the rising generation"
 Commissioner Peart stated that the order would affect every Salvation Army member in 77 countries and col onies where the orga nization oper- ates with the possible exception of China and Japan, where most of the women wear trousers.

Washington, Jan. 3o-'Lest we for get.''
 This slogan. which stirred the country when the war had ended, has been readopted by the U. $. Veterans Bureau to spur. it's drive for the re- Mobilization of fallen veterans of the World War. A drive, with this pu. pose in view, has been started in ev- e'v hospital and prison in the coun- try.

Numerous soldiers. he declared be- came mentally disarranged through narrowing experiences in the war and fell from grace. These men some serving prison sentences. but ma ny committed for short terms. will be helped to regain their pre-war status.
 The hosnital search is intensed to locate such veterans who sought to pay their expenses for illnesses caus- ed by war wounds or eNDeriences These men will be helped just as well as those who applied for Government assistance.

Chicago, Jan. 30.-Bits of romance. in the lives of librarians are furnish ed by mysterious visitors who com, to browse in the learned tonnes in their keeping.
 Conversation with the librarians in the Ryerson library reveal coIorfuI facts. There is the Spanish gentle man named Cebrian who roans about the world collecting rare Spanish books on art, which he lends to the library at unexpected intervals He is never, it seems, in the same place twice, but he usually writes in ad- vance when he is passing through Chicago and then pays the library . visit.
 Not long ago a prosperous looking gentleman came up in great delight to the librarians desk and announced that he had found a picture for which he had searched for many months spending over $1,000 in the search. It was a picture of Louis XIV dress CT of veneer. He had been trying to prove to a group of manufacturers that the costliest furniture was once made in veneer and had been unable to convince them. After he left the city eight or ten men came into the library from various parts of the country and asked to see the illustra- ton

BIM|NI NEW
 MECCA FOR
 WET AMERICA

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 30.@eder- al prohibition officials here are inter ested in Biminf, the small British isl and 40 miles east of Miami, which since the outlawing of John Barley corn by the United States has be- come a mecca for those whose thirst was not quenched by the Eighteenth Amendment and which also is said to be the source of much of the liquor smuggled into this country, have as certained that Bimini was supposed to have been the site of the fountain of youth of which Ponce de Icon was in search when he discovered Florida.
 Bimini is not a recently established institution, it has developed, for more than 400 years ago it figures iD the news reports of the day by that name. Ponce de Leon heard of it while in Porto Rico in 1512, having been told by the Indians there "of an island called Bimini, where there was much ious than gold-a fountain whose waters would make young forever an mortals who should drink of it. as one chronicler puts it.
 Ponce de Leon fitted out three small vessels at his own expense to go in search of the fountain. He left to the present generation the discov- cry of the gold and potent waters, however, for after cruising about the Bahamas during the winter of 1518 without sighting the island he heard there was land in the northwest, steered in that direction and on East CT Sunday, March 27, handed on the beach a few miles north of were Sl. Augustine now stands.
 Prohibition officials credit the In dians of Porto Rico with having known what they were talking about when they told Ponce de Leon what he would find at Bimini.
 "Bimini is running over with gold these days" said one official, "and it Is certain from the experience we have had with liquor runners the last year or two that the marvellous wa terse of the fountain still flow freeIy''

FIVE BURMESE
 RADICALS PUT
 UNDER ARREST

Rangoon, Jan. 30-The arrest of five Burma Nationalist leaders here just before the arrival of the Prince of Wales and their removal to north trn Burma for internment caused considerable excitement and intense bitterness among the Burmese Nat ionalists.
 Among those arrested were U. Chit Plaing, president of the General Council of Burmese Associations and U Ba Plaing, editor of New Burma, one of the leading Nationalist news papers published in Rangoon.
 In setting forth the reasons for their internment, Lieutenant Cover nor Sir R. H. Craddock, declared in an address before the Burma Legis- lative Council, that there was in Burma a small polictical clique an imated by race hatred and by de- sire to subvert the authority of the government and take the reins of power into their own hands. These men. he said. were using every means, fair and foud, to make the Princes visit a failure.
 Summing up the polictical situa- ton in Burma, he declared that this clique had first, a year ago. sought the same constitutional reforms that had been given to the provin ces of India but that when they saw that this was likely to be granted, they had made it clear that what they really wanted wanted. or pro- fessed to want. was home rule out side the British Empire.
 Having captured the political ma chine, he asserted. these men were endleavoring to tyrannize over the people of Burma by use of the boy colt.
 '"They are, careful to pay a lip worship on every possible occasion to the so-called doctorine of non- violence,'' the Lieutenant Governor said. ''They are far too so1icitous of their own safety to indulge in any violence but they care nothing that must inevitably lead to the use of violence by their dupes."
