COUNTERFEIT MEN HAVE LOST SKILL

SALT LAKE CITY. Utah. May IA Although counterfeiting is on the Increase the general workmanship on counterfeit notes is inferior and is not So difficult to detect, accord ing to W. J. Moran, chief of the United States secret service, who was in Salt Lake City recently.
 "The inferiority of counterfeit notcs," MT. Moran said. lis largely due to the use of new pnoto-mcchan- ical processes which for the most part are being handled by amateurs. Years ago. before these processes ca'mc into use. the operations re. quired much skill"
 There is not so much counterfeit. ing of coins now. according to MT. Moran. This. he said. was due to tho tact that during the war the price of metals scared and is still high enough to make this production unprofitable
 While noto raising and check forg- ing has caused the sccrct service much trouble in the past flow years, Mir. Moran declared not much money had ibcen realized in this manner be- cause raised notes and bad checks are so easily detected and sup pressed.
