Is It true that Mexico. Colon, Panama.

A decided negative 10 tho only answer DOS

Charles Shannon, another well
known Irish painter, also has. attract
cd considerable attention with his
portrait of Miss Lilah Macarthey.
The young Irish artists are well

Unemployment in
Denmark Increasing

Copenhagen, March 3.-Unemploy-
ment in Denmark has been steadily
increasing month by month, averag-
ing 20 percent for the whole of 1921
and eliminating in December with
23.5 percent of the total number of
Danish workers, according to official
reports.
High wages and the dumping of
cheap central European goods are
generally blamed for this state of
affairs.
Economists, how ever. are of the
that unemployment in Denmark, as
elsewhere, is natural consequence
of the fact that more than half Of
Europe's population are unable to
buy even the dearest necessities.
Some staticians assert that the
country is too small for her fertile
population of less than 3,250,00O.
