LOSES BY RISING
EXCHANGE RATE

London, July 20. LII o y d

The premier, according to his
most intimate friends, turns to
the financial page when he takes
up his morning newspaper and
looks at the quotations for the
English pound sterling on the
New York Stock Exchange.
Andrew Carnegie, the late steel
king, is primarily responsible for
the premier's interest In Ameri-
can exchange, for under the will
of Carnegie the British prime
minister receives an annuity OF
1000 pounds, but the annuity is
in American dollars and therefore
its value in British pounds f1uc-
tuates with the exchange market.
In 1921 the prime minister re-
ceived nearly 1000 pounds by vir-
ture Of the Carnegie bequest, but
since the exchange has been ris-
ing this annuity has been decreas-
ing.
The prime minister is now fac
ed with the expense of building
new country home in Surrey and
he has also given orders to real
estate agents in London to keep
watchful eye for him for a
town house in London, against

READING AS FOLLOWS:
"In this case the conflict is not
between the employer and the
oppressed employees. The peo-
pie of this country, through an
act of congress. signed by Pres
ident Wilson, established a tri-
bunal to decide such disputes
over wages and working condi
tons, which are submitted to 1t
in a proper manner. 1t is the
decision of this tribunal against
which the shop crafts are strik-
ing.
Regardless of any question of
the right of the men to strike,
the men who take the strikers
places are merely accepting the
wages and working conditions
prescribed by a government tri-
bunal and are performing a pub
lie service. They are not accept
ing the wages and working con-
ditions which an employer is
trying to impose. For this reas-
on public sentiment and full
government power will protect
the men who remain in their
positions and new men who may
come in."

DENVER GIRL
RELATES DOPE
RING SECRETS

Denver, July 20--A lurid tale of
how she was kidnapped by mem
bers OF ''dope peddltng ring"
taken to a squalid shack ON the
owtskfrts of Denver, starved into
submission and assaulted WAS re-
lated to Juvenile court Officials
here by a sewentee-yea Dem
yer schoolgirl, whose name is be-
ing withheld.
The girl declared that the dope
ring" gang abducts and holds cap
tive young girls, giving them
morphine and cocaine in an eff
fort to create new market for
their illicit traffic and frequently
force their captives onto the
street in life of shame.
Juvenile court and welfare Of
ficials have Investigated the story
and verified many "details, includ-
ing the discovery of the shack in
which the girl claims to have
been held prisoner for six weeks,
as we'll as other "dens" In isolat-
ed sections of the city.
That the shack Hn which the uh
identified girl was mistreated was
the headquarters of a school" to
force the use of drugs upon young
| girls Is the belief expressed by wei
fare officers. and police are inves-
tigating the activities Of the gang
in search for clues to the disap-
pearance of and assualts upon
numerous young Denver girls in
recent weeks.
Shack is Located
Juvenile court ATTACHES found
the shack in which the girl was
held captive in grove of trees
just outside the city limits-a
small, squat building, with heavi-
ly SCREENED windows, and contain
ing two rooms, barren of aid
furniture except brass bed and
bed clothing.
Stripped of practically all her
clothing, the girl told officers, she
lspent most of her time in THE bed
in an effort to keep warm. Her
meals consisted MOSTLY of sand
witches brought from downtown
by members OF the gang. She was
given much dope" and moon
shine whiskey, she said.
| The girl declared she was cap
tured by members OF the gang in
a downtown street, taken to this
shack and kept a prisoner for siS
weeks. during which time she be
came drug addict.
The girl escaped from her cap
tors by jumping Through a win
dow of the squalid shack while hen
captors were absent. She reported
her terrible experience ito juven-
lie court officials, who now have
her In custody.

GENTLE TAP OF FAN FATAL
Man Dreaming OF the Days Of the

Touched His Neck.

Arthur Mclaughlin of Detroit Is re-
sponsibfe for this story sent me by
my friend, Leo D. Brown, of the Cos
nfopolitan Book corporation:
"a Reno gent had, on a Saturday
night, become very much absorbed In
The Tale of Two Cities Particularly
was he impressed with the description
of the guillotine and the misfortunates
upon whose necks 1t descended so dew
astatingly. The vision preyed upon
his Imagination.
Next day his wife insisted that he.
accompany her to church. He drowsed
during an inordinately long prayer and
dreamed that the guillotlne was about
to descend on his bent neck. Wife,
upon resuming her seat when the
prayer was over, noticed that her hus-
band was asleep and still leaning for
ward, his head resting on his hands on
the pew ahead. And so, with her fan,
she tapped him lightly upon the back
of the neck. Whereupon the gent fell
dead"
