a hot desert town. Here the British
soldiers and officers ana always in
evidence and they have regulated
prices for all services. For instance.
there is sign on the station walls in
several places that porters can ask
one Egyptian plaster for each piece of
baggage sthey transfer, but no more.
and travellers are asked not TO pay
more than this.
Along the railroad line arc several
large camps OF British troops. mostly
motor and airplane stations. In addi-
ton to the white troops. Great Britain
has many Indian troops in the desert
section of Palestine and along the
railroad lines from Haifa to Ell Kan
tara on the canal II the country Is
peaceful, as the outside world Is led to
believe, the traveller questions why
there is so much show of armed force.
Government House here, where the
British have their headquarters. and
which is the official residence OF Sir
Herbert Samuels as well as housing
the entire official life of the admins
tration, is a building constructed by
the Germans just prior to the world'
war With a fine sense of irony the
British have left in inches on one wall
overlooking the great courtyard two
statues, one Of the Kaiser and one or
the Kaiserin, each dressed as Cru
saders And even to-day, with the bet

and the English, there are many

Racial Issue as Affecting
Jews Is Biggest Problem
In spite of everything else. and of
all the other troubles, economic ana
political, that the British have In
Palestine. the racial question as 1t
concerns the Jews is the biggest prob
lem facing the British administra-
tors. When it is considered that five
denominations. Catholic and Protes-
tant, are literally fighting as TO the
time they shall hold services In the
Church of the Holy Sepulcher some
idea of the racial problem in this oity
and country can be envisaged.
There are churches and schools OF
practically every denomination In
Christendom in Jerusalem. The Cath
olics are here represented by the
Jesuits and the Franciscans from
France, and the Greek Orthodox
church is also strong. In addition to
these there are several other sects
claiming prestige in this Holy City.
The older population, even the Jews
of Palestine themselves. look with
more or less disfavor on the migra-
ton of thousands of Jews brought
here under the Zionist movement.
They look upon these newcomers as
rich relations. perhaps, como to this
land, which their forefathers left sew
eral centuries ago, backed by money to
buy anything and backed also by the
powerful British Empire.
Although there is considerable feel
ing among the Jews of the country
against these newcomers the greatest
feeling against them comes from other
races, and naturally that of the Mo-
hammedsn population is the strongest.
The situation is far from improving,
for with the coming of more Jews II

Purpose of Law Is Distorted;
Creditors SwindIed by Bankrupt


The practical working of the bank
ruptcy law has departed far from its
original intent and purposes. The
honest debtor now who becomes in
volved in financial difficulties ana ap-
peals frankly to his creditors is aided
by them to. avoid bankruptcy. The
credit associations in the various
trades and the protective organiZa-
tions which credit men have formed
are able In almost all cases to deter
mine whether the debtor is acting
honestly and frankly with his cred
,tors. If they determine that he is
worth saving they Will give him fur
ther time, additional credit and il nee
essary scale down his obligations.
I There are always a certain number
OF honest failures where changes in
etyle, labor difficulties, bad credits
dull seasons and like causes prevent
N business man meeting his obligations
promptly in full.
But since the war, especially In the
last two years. there have been hum
dreds of profitable failures planned in
advance, tainted with collusion and re-
sultihg In fraudulent profit TO the
debtor. Most business men can foresee
a failure some time before their cred
itors find out their. condition. Where
a failure is inevitable the. straightfor-
ward course is to call a meeting of the
creditors, state the facts TO them thor
oughly and put the case in their hands.
The other course, which has been
frequently followed in the last year or
two. and which the Merchants Asso-
citation condemns ia to continue in
business, sell all rnr assets possr,rr,
collect all the money possible. divert
this money to friends, relatives or IN
other ways, and then to arrange a
collusive bankruptcy.
A collusive bankruptcy requires the
Assistance of at least two lawyers.
Several lawyers make a speciality of
this kind OF business. Their names
are well known, their fees are high
and their incomes are large. The
future bankrupt goes to lawyer who

On entering the shack Pollyop found
Granny Hope still asleep. Then she
replenished the fire and sat down with
Jerry on her lap. She disrobed him,

pipe and chartered Of the little Init

sent him and Jerry or to Larry

Polly considered the pretty face a

why the homecoming of the cousin

LOCAL MARKET SURVEY

these yards is proof that the prices

1.10S hogs, weighing total of 247,510
pounds, for which we paid $24,S73.50
100 spring lambs, which brought the
shippers $83195; 81 veals and IS head

Slump In Hog Prices
Hogs were weak in all markets last
week, largely because order buyers
were bit scary on account of strike
conditions and the possible danger OF
stock being held up in transit Speak
ing locally Mr.. Shurley gives his aver
age cost on the week as $40, with
light hogs selling as high as $1050, il
spots, and heavies as low as SO.
Hogs slumped badly at Chicago or
Saturday, and the general average
price dropped to $S95, the lowest in
that market since Feb. l. Shipping
orders were light and the day finished
with 5000 left in tn opens to be added
to Mondays receipts in the sale rings
The downward pressure lightened the

Native beef cattle advanced. sharply
last week, the general average on bee
steers advanced 40 cents over the pre-
