GERMAN INDUSTRIES
HUM--LITTLE POVERTY
M.rs. Frank Harold Returns
From Trip Abfoad-Visited
Many European Countries

Mrs. Franl, Harold, state president
of the United Daughters of the Con-
federacy, gave an interesting inter-
view this morning, in which she re
lates some of her Impressions CLEAN
ed from tour or three months
through England, France, Belgium,
Italy, Switzerland and Germany. She
studied Germany closely because OF
the economic problems being worked
out among the Entente concerning
the future Of that country.
Germany is the most beautiful
country in the world" said Mrs. Har-
rold Beautiful from every stand
point. The landscape is beautiful;
the buildings are superb; the res
tauants, cafes and beer gardens are
pleasing as can be imagined. The
homes are lovely and well kept. Paint
is used lavishly, the homes present
ing well kept appearance along the
avenues of residences The lawns
and flower gardens are dreams 0f
lovelness, with the trinity moved
grass and the blossoming flowers
both in the front and rear of the
hGmes.
"The fact which struck me most
forcibly is the total absence of pow
erty. Not a trace anywhere, ana
we travelled over a great portion of
the country. Germany, to me, seems
| prosperous from every standpoint
Acres for miles and miles are under
cultivation, with not one barren spot.
From the trains can be seen the beau
/ tiful grain fields from which the gold
/ en- harvest is now being garnered,
and the sight presented the most
beautiful agricultural panorama l
| have ever seen. And all because of
the fact that the acreage is unend-
ing, and field after field adjoins, ap-
pearing as if one continuous estate.
Want More Land
"On every side are heard the cry
/ for more land, more territory, and
/ the complaint that the country is be-
coming too densely populated for the
land area. This impression was nos
left with me, for | considered Ger,
many no more densely populated than
than Georgia, and there seems room
enough for all.
"But the food is splendid and
splendidly served. One can certainly
secure enough to eat in Germany for
the proverbial mere song. Our party
was housed in the best hotels for
week or more, and the cost was only
rs cents each night. In fact, our
entire bill for the week, including
everything, was less than $40. We
were told by our escort that were we
in Germany with our small posses
sions, we could live as millionairce.
This seemed absurd to me, and yet
after paying for the things which
were offered, the realization came
that a very little money goes a long
way in Germany.
Germans Hats French
"But how the Germans hate the
Frenchl Both peoples are just wait

The raffles who has been busy IN
the residential sections of the city
fog the past week, entered three more
homes last night with the net result
that he secured a small amount of
cash, one or two valuable articles
and some keys.
The home Of jesse l.. Jeter, at
the corner Of Church and Forrest
streets, was entered early Thursday
and d small sum in money secured.
R, j. Perry, residing on Jackson
|. street, was another victim and the
ID bbeT got a small amount Of money,
knife and some keys.
\ The apartment Of Mrs. Walker, in
the same building that letters Occu-
py was also entered but nothing
Of value was taken.
The home Dave Purdy negl%,
on Forrest street, was entered but
Pufdy tred two shots at the burg
lar, who made his escape.
Secures About $500.
These burglaries, the three report
ed Tuesday and others that occur
red the latter part Of last week,
bring the total attempts to 8 with
in a week
Altogether raffles has secured
about $500 and many valuable ar
ticles from the homes he has visited.
1t appears that the houses are en-
tered early in the morning and the
residences have been located on Jack
son, Lee, Church, Taylor, Forrest and
other streets in the residential sec
tons of the city.
Chief Bragg and his force are en-
gagged in the tracking down the rob
ber but have had very little work
to DO so far as there is absolutely
no clud to the identity, whether it is
white man or negro.

town was wide open than for the re-
mainder of the three years since
the 18th amendment was passed.
Loaded trucks careened through
the streets to satisfy the thirsty
and beer faucets that had drawn only
near beer for years poured forth "a

rushed to the scene, and, after cou-
pie of days of B. P. wetness, had

Ban Gambling AT Fairs.

All games of chance have been
barred as amusements for county
fairs in Wisconsin, according to a
ruling by Attorney General Nor
gan. This was made known by
Elmer S. Hall, secretary of state,
in a letter to county fair secretaries.
The ruling also states that games
for which the winning of a prize
which tests the skill of the operat.
or are not games of chance. Among
the games barred are: Any game
or device having a concealed pre-
MUM; the Devils Bowling Alley
a device where the balls are always
in motion and the player selects a
ball at random and wins a prize &C,
cording to the number on ball;
the marble roll on a tilted plat
form and all with either a drag or
a stop; any game where money is
a prize.

June Motor Licenses.

Automobile licenses fees for the
fiscal year ending June 80, amount.
ed TO 81. oSS, $40 collected on $50
784 pleasure, - PA trucks, 1 .SI3
motorcycles and 2,o4S dealers,
Elmer 5. Hall, secretary of state,
announced yesterday.
This is the largest return in the
history of the automobile division
of the secretary of states office
exceeding the amount paid last
year by over 500, 900. The mum
Der of pleasure cars already liceus
ed is IS, 900 more than for the en-,
tire year Of 1921, according TO Mr..
Hall.
Cost of collecting the 81 oSS, SO
in fees was sISI,73I, leaving s.
9o7I3S i'll the highway fund. Out
OF this amount IS per cent is APP,
portioued to counties for mainten-
ance of county trunk highway
system, sos, 900 is paid to the
state department for operation
costs and the balance goes into the
maintenance fund of the state trunk
highway system.
The increasing number OF auto
mobiles has resulted in larger
fund for maintenance of the Wis
consin highway system. The 81
o8S $40, collected during the fiscal
year will be augmented by further
funds received from new cars licens-
ed through the remainder of the
year. About 500 licenses are be.
ing sold daily, Mr.. Hall says.
Funds collected from license fees
may not be used for construction
purposes generally, according to
legislative enactment Failure Of
the 1921 session TO provide for
meeting federal aid highway ap,
preparations caused some specula-
ton concerning whether it would
be necessary to use the license fee
funds for that purpose.
1t is now believed that the 1929
legislature can determine upon a
means of raising the needed money
shortly after it couvenes in January
so that ii will not be necessary to
cut into the license fees for con-
struction purposes.

June Accidents on Highways.

The Wisconsin Highway Com
missions accident report for the
month of June shows that there
was a total of 50 accidents which
occurred on the State Trunk High
ways. In this number of accidents
there were about $50 persons in
volved. Number of persons killed
s. Number seriously injured, 43
Number slightly injured, 81 Ac-
cidents without injuries. 80.
The accidents occurred as fol-
lows: On straight road, IS. On
curves and corners, 80. On rail
road crossings, 5. On intersecting
cross roads, 4. Other places, 3.
The main cause for most of the
accidents is reckless driving or
speeding. Out of the So accidents,
So Of them were caused by either
reckless driving or speeding,
The remainder Of the causes were
due to defective car mechanism,
weather conditions and misceIlane-
Gus other causes.
One Of the interesting things
brought out by the figures Of this
month is the fact that out of the
SIS accidents, only in 50 cases did
persons escape without injuries,
thus showing that in all accidents
during this month, less than Is
per cent escaped injury.
The months Of July and August
are the heavy traffic months on
the highways, and if the accidents
are to be kept TO a minimum each
and every driver Of cars must be
cautious and observe the rules OF
the road and principles Of good

MINNEAPOLIS CONCERN WILL
TAKE hURLEY'S BOND ISSUE
Bid Accepted at tuesdays Meeting of
Common Council. Resolution to
Curb Carnivals Passed.

The Lincoln Trust and Savings
Bank of Minneapolis will take over
the $4,000 street improvement
bonds provided for in an ordinance
introduced at a meeting of the
city council June and formally
adopted at the June 20 meeting.
The bid of this concern was ac-
cepted at the special meeting of the
council held Tuesday evening.
For the $4,000 street improve
ment bonds OF the city Of Hurley
the Lincoln Trust and Savings
Bank will pay par, an S1I.0o pre-
MUM and accrued interest. The
company will bear the expense of
providing the bonds and attorney 5
fees.
One other bid was filed, that Of
the Brake Ballard company, also 81
Minneapolis. This company bid
par. accrued interest and asked
SIS for blanks and attorney 5 fees.
The bonds will be issued in de-
nominations of $500 ard will bear
interest at S per cent, payable semi
annually after January /, 1925.
This is the second bond issue OF
the city of Hurley. Last year
bonds to the amount of $50 500 for
street Improvements and sewer
work were issued.
Another important result of the
special meeting Tuesday evening
was the adoption of a resolution
instructing the city attorney to
draft an ordinance providing for a
license fee of $500 per day for all
carnivals, cirCuses, etc, that NAV
wish to show in Hurley. 1t is
believed that this measure is in
tended to prevent carnivals from
coming to Hurley, the license fee
being made so high that for a
carnival to show here would be al
most prohibitive. There was some
rumor that a.number of the council
men were in favor of some restric-
tive measure for carnivals following
the. appearance of the Hansher
Bros. shows here last week, hence
the action of the council Tuesday
evening does not come as a surprise
to MANY.

Fortune Is In Sight
For Youths Who
Found Barge
By UniversaI service.

LONG BRANCH, N, j.,
Aug. l0.-Two boys may be
enriched 100000 each as the
result of finding a barge which
was washed up on the beach
here yesterday.
Cornelius Perrine and Jerome
Welch discovered the following
notes tucked away in a corner
of the craft:
''June 4, 1922-I William
Custer am dying. leave the
$500, 900 have in the Green
point Savings Bank to my
friends Jack Barrows and John
Kister if they live, or to who
finds this. Pray for my soul,
(Signed) William Custer"
"June 8, 1921 think it is
eight days since our barge
Catamont went down. Custer
is dead and so, Is Jack. /, too,
am almost dead. II l am not
on this boat you will know l
am gone. (Signed) John Kis-
ter"
Barring legal technicalities,
it is believed that the boys
can claim the $4Cp,000 in
heritance providing it can be
proved that Jack BarrowsN and
John Kister are dead.
