is his failure to visit the New World

Diplomats and ecclesiastical digni-

the new Pontiff's efforts to familiar

usually accorded interviews lasting
two hours or more, while ambassadors

spent an hour with the Pope.
He Is evidently feeling his way and
trying to understand the complicated
machinery in all its parts" said one
ambassador, as he left the Vatican

REFUGEESFR0M
RUSSIA FL0CKING
into GERMANY
Berliners Complain That The
Great Influx Deprivcs Berlin
OF its German Character"

Berlin, April 28.-iordes of Rus.
sian refugees are flocking here on
every train. The arrivals have set
tied themselves in section Of tho
city which they occupy almost to the
exclusion Of other nationalities, and
have opened their own restaurants,
clubs, saloons and theaters. Some Of
the Russians are wealthy, but most Of
them are penniless.
The police have found them q prob
lem as they insist upon their own
customs, and have little commerce
with the Germans. The greatest dif-
ficulty is found in compelling the i'm
migrants to observe the one O'clock
closing regulations. They follow the
Russian custom Of beginning dinner
after midnight and continuing their
eating and drinking until daylight.
In several Of these restaurants for
mer wealthy Russians are working q
walters, cooks, or entertainers. A
prince and his wife, a baron, and an
other OF their c0untrymen constitute
the orchestra in, one small eating
place. They were bankrupted by the
revolution and must work or starve.
Prufiteers who made fortunes out
Of the Russian revolution frequent the
cafes in this quarter, where they have
become conspicuous figures in tho
night life because Of their lavish q.
penditures. .lt!
The German newspapers complain
that the great influx of easterners has
deprived Berlin OF its German char
acter." One paper asserts Germanys
capital city has become "a foreign
colony, as surely as Il would have
become II our enemies had marched
in and taken it." Another declares
Germans have become guests in their
.oXn homes" q
Government quarters, which: have
shown little concern for the financial
status of the refugees, have suddenly
become intensely interested IN the
new arrivals, particularly from Poland
and Russia, fearing an epidemic OF
typhus and cholera. German Red
Cross physicians have warned the gov
eminent that unless closer border con-
troll can bs maintained an epidemic
In the spring is certain. The German
Red Cross has also notified the gov
ernment that there Is danger Of tho
Russians carrying the plague to Amer
lea unless greatest precautions are
taken, for scores are seeking admis-
sion to the United States.

SHOALS
HISTORY IS TOLD
BY MR.. WEAKLEY
From 1918 to 1876 It Was AL.
ways known as 'Mussel
Shoals"
WAGONLOADS OF MUSSELS

Florence, Ala, April 28.-From 1915
| till about 1876 the shoals on the Tenn
essee river here were known as
"mussel Shoals" according to maps
of original survey and historical data
of original and authentic character
possessed by John B. Weakley, Birm-
ingham lawyer and capitalist and
former resident OF this community.
Mr.. Weakley's parents and grand
parents resided here and handed down
to him wealth of historical inform
alton, which he has displayed to set
at rest a controversy that has arisen
over the original spelling of Muscle
Shoals"
This data, according to Mr.. Weak
ley, shows that the Cypress Land
Company purchased the land about
Muscle Shoals from the govern
ment March 13, 1918 and the first
white settlements were recorded that
year, followed by an influx Of set
tiers the next year. At that time,
the survey showed the shoaly section
Of the river as "Mussel Shoals" the
name being given the rapids by rea-
son of the great quantities OF the edi-
BILE bivalve, mussels, found in and
along the stream, these records ap-
pear to indicate.
II have often heard my grand par
ents tell of mussels being hauled out
by the wagon loads" declared Mr..
Weakley. This was the same mussel
that was once 80 abundant the
mississippi and from the shell Of
which in earlier days many pearl
buttons were made" nr 4.
Mr.. Weakley accounts, Tor the par
tial disappearance Of the mussel from
the stream as a result Of floods and
tn, roachments pf civilization.
When the government undertook to
complete the Muscle, Shoals canal
about 1876, the data in Mr.. Nv Weakley's
possession shows engineers changed
the name from 'tMussel"s to. X. Muscle

Government records, insofar as they

since Muscle Shoals became a ma.
tional issue, discussion Of the name
has created numerous reports.
At was contended by army enH-
neers that the name never had been
altered and that 1t originated from an
Indian story, heap, big Muscle re.
quired to pull canoes over the rapids
In the river at this point.
Another story that came from the
Indians was that the shoals at that
point resembled the biceps, or mus

of the Catholic church to hope for an
increase in the number Of Cardinals
allotted them Senor de Avaredo, Bra
lillian Ambassador to the Vatican, has
pointed out to the new Pope that the
United States, smaller In area and
with a smaller Catholic population
than Brazils, has two Cardinals while
Brazil has but one.
! Cne of the chief objections to grant.
ing Cardinals in Latin America
brought forward in the past is that the
Sacred ollege cannot exceed 10 men,
bers, and that the Pope, following
traditional law, must leave q few
vacancies to be filled by his successor.
This argument is cOntroverted by Sen
or Azaredo on the ground that the
present limitation to 20 Cardinals was
established nearly 400 years ago, when
no one could forsee the development
Of the American continents.

NORTH DAKOTA
WEALTHY,
: : Mr.. MCDOWELL |:
Tells Business Men at Fargo
Commercial Club Banquet
State Increased Assets,
HITS AT THE PEsslMIsTs

Fargo, April 2S.-"North Dakota is
not broke. Don't ever let anybody get
away from you with the idea that
North Dakota is broke" Isaid Wesley
Mcdowell Of Marion, N. D., director
of the Ninth District Federal Reserve
bank, at the Prosperity Day banquet
at the Fargo Commercial club, in an
address which set forth an array of
figures, and statistical information to
prove that there is every reason to-
nope for a bright future for North
Dakota, and which brought forth a
burst Of applause that was almost an
ovation when Mr.. Mcdowell con-
cluded.
Mr.. Mcdowell quoted figures from
the United States census returns to
prove the financial stability of North
Dakota.
"On 22,623 farms owned by the men
who operate them in North Dakota,
the ratio of debt to value of the farm
land was 28.5 per cent" said Mr.. Nc
Dowell This is slight increase in
the ratio for owned farms over 1910,
when the ratio was 22.4, but the fig
ures are illuminating an1 are cause
fer satisfaction rather than for
gloom
ssThink of these figures: In 1910
there were 1887 farms owned by the
men who operated them, as reported
in tho consus The total value of this
land was $213,642,593 carrying a
mortgaged Indebtedness of $47,841;5S7.
In 1920 the total number of such
farms reported was 22,623 and the to.
tai value fas $38O,132,941, carrying a
total Indebtedness Of $1O8,284, ,6S2.
Value Increased.
"The total indebtedness Increased
$50, ,443, ,O95 but the total value Of farms
increased $l66, ,4S9,9S8.
''The average value per farm in
creased from $11,135 to $16,803. The
average indebtedness increased from
81, ,493 to $4,7S6 and the average equity
increased from $S,642 to $12,O16.
''This does not look like we are
going broke, when we consider what
we have been through, in the way Of
crop reverses. We might have done
better, but the man who says we are
broke simply does not take the actual
facts into consideration.
"As a matter Of fact there is no
place in the wide world where a man
has 4 better opportunity to succeed II
he Is not too lazy TO- do q real days
work, than here in North Dakota.
"We can't do it raising wheat. Mr..
here, in his address on
dairy cows has hit upon the solution
of our problem. II the dealers who
have come to, Fargo today had done !,
nothing more than to listen to Mr.. Al
exander's 10 minute talk, their time
would have been well spent.
Way to Wealth
There is nothing that will put
North Dakota on its feet 50 quickly as
cows, hogs and corn.
1.-THE man who fails In North Da-
kota would fail anywhere. There isn't
! place that God ever made that 10

Bossemer. July 25.-(Special)- Bessemer citizens and those of the Bessemer district are elated over tho announcement received yesterday aft ernoon that the highway commis- sion had decided to build tho new Montgomery highway over the Pel- ham, Hardwood and Bessemer route.
 A. D.

Davis, president of the Birming- ham Automobile club yesterday at Montgomery containing the infor- nation that the highway commits sion passed unanimously on the new route from Pelham to Helena, Park wood and Bessemer. In the estima- ton of Bessemer business men this Is the biggest thing that could have happened for Bessemer at this time as this route will open up large agricultural section to the south of Bessemer and give this agricultural section an entrance to the industrial fields of the Bessemer district in Jefferson county. The farmers along the route will be able to convey their products into Bessemer with trucks and thousands of citizens of the rural communities will be benefited.
 The Bessemer Chamber of Com merce Is to be congratulated on the efforts made by the body through their secretary, Mir. Ausman, to se- cure the highway which will result
