CAN MONOPOLIZE
AGENTS

Washington.-Th United States
supreme court has ruled that the Cur
tbs Publishing Company, of Philadel-
phia, has the right to stop it's whole
salers selling or distributing maga-
zines or newspapers of other publ
cations. The federal trade commits
sion ruled that the company's policy
was against the law.
In setting aside the commissions
decision, the court said the company's
contract was one of agency and not
of sale and therefore was not prohib-
tied by the Clayton act. Chief Jus
tice Taft and Associate Justice Bran

Helped Plan
 ex-CrOwn Princes Return

London, Dec. 27.-It now appears that the Princess Hermine, the ex- Kaiser's wife. was the guiding star be- hind the hurried return of her step son. the ex-crown price, to Germany. according to the Dutch correspondent of the London Daily Mail. It was, in fact, due largely to her energy and tact when she last visited Germany that the German government consent ed to issue the necessary passports to him and his suite.
 Immediately on her return to Doorn the prince hurriedly left his island of exile and hastened to his fathers house. He spent much time in con- yersation with his step-mother, walk ing in the grounds with her while his father was out walking with the princess children.
 It is reported that after last visiting her own estates the Princess Hermine travelled to Berlin in closed com- partment and left the train heavily yelled and muffled. She later visited several of the state officials. She is commonly accredited with being as clever as she is energetic, 9-: for some time she has left no stone un- turned to get the Hohenzolerns back to Germany.
