GERMANY FINDS HIGH
PRICES UNPROFITABLE
Merchants Say Taxes Take Re
turns-Farmers Complain-Lux-
ury Purchases Drop.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BREMEN. June 14.-"Who gets the
money" is the question the average
German is asking in conn ection with
the high prices now charged for all
sorts of commodities.
Food prices and the cost of ordinary
clothing range all the way from %
to 200 per cent above pre-wa figures.
SUI. the farmers contend they are
the low prices paid for their products
and the sharp competition they have
from foreign foods. especially bread
stuffs Merchants and middlemen in
siSt their taxes. interest and expenses
are so high that they are merely
making d living.
Railway fares, theater and mbving
picture admission prices hotel rooms
and meals in restaurants and cafes of
all classes range from 25 to 100 per
cent higher than in France. and are
far above the Swiss, Austrian and
Italian rates.
But enough persons manage to
raise the money to keep business
going. Luxury shops are pretty hard
hit Fine gowns and hats are not
bought in large numbers, and tailorS
who ask SIS for mems suits which
can be bought for $50 in London are
not finding many buyers
German business is clearly not on
a healthy basis. Interest rates are so
high and uncertain that manufactur-
crs and merchants are unable to fig-
lkre costs definitely. In their efforts
to play safe they have advanced
prices to a point that checks normal
buying. Expert metal workers, who
are paid % cents an hour. cannot
understand why commodities have
advanced out of all proportion to the
increase in their wages. Clerks and
government employees are similarly
nuzzled. and without money to buy
ANYTHING but absolute necessities.

PUPILS "RULE" IN PRAGUE
Hold Session of Parliament in
Czech Chamber.

PRAGUE, June 14.-While the dep
uties of the Prague Parliament re-
Gently were away on vacation. the
school children of Czechoslovakia
took possession of the chamber one
afternoon and held a parliamentary
session of their own.
The school children throughout the
republic. numbering about 100000
had appointed one delegate from
each hundred schools to represent
them at the session, which was held
under the auspices of the govern
ment. In the presence of the presi-
dent of the republic, DR.. MaSaryk; ;
DR.. Benes and all the other ministers,
the children discussed questions of
moral or humanitarian order They
also made an incursion into the do
main of current politics, for they
appealed to their seniors present in
the public galleries to do everything
to preserve peace
The general impression was that
the success of the function and the
excellence OF the speeches made bore
happy testimony to the good work
done by Mile. Masaryk in the popular
education campaign she has under
taken.

MOROCCAN ROBIN HOOD,
WORLD FAMED, RETIRES
Raisuli. Kidnaper of Notables of
Many Nations, Once international
Issue, Leads Quiet Life.
Issue, Lt

By the Associated Press.
TANGIER, Morocco. June 14.-Raisuli
the Robin Hood of Morocco, who in
spired John Hays "Perdicaris alive or
Raisuli dead" which provoked wild ap-
pIause in the Republican national con-
vention at Chicago twenty years ago.
has ceased to be a great international
issue. He has become almost a legend.
Raisuli has quit kidnapping prom
inent Englishmen and Americans for
ransom, and is living in retirement at
Tazrut, in the heart of Morocco, sur
rounded by faithful followers whom he
supports from the proceeds of his years
of brigandage and the funds Germany
supplied to him for the purpose of
keeping the anti-French native tribes
in a state of ferment during the great
war.
Ian Perdicaris. the wealthy American
whom Raisuli kidnapped from his villa
in Tangier and carried into the Atlas
Mountains, died in the United States
several years ago. Sir Harry Maclean
the English chief of the 'sultan's body
guard, whom Raisuli kidnapped and
held prisoner for seven months, has
been forgotten by newspaper readers
But Raisuli is such a picturesque figure
that even in retirement he is not forgot
zen.
There are frequent rumorS that the
former bandit may be induced to enter
the movies Foreign women make pill
grimages to Tazrut in the hope of see
ing =. sheik in real life.
Political differences between Spain
France. England and Germany as to
which should have the whip hand in
directing Moroccan affairs played into
Raisulfs hands. He was clever enough
to capitalize the international rows, and
because of his great influence with the
mountain tribes has managed to es-
GsSe death.

U. S. SURVEY EXPLORING
UNCHARTED ARCTIC AREA
Party of Biologists to Inspect an
Unknown Territory Embracing
$4,000 Square Miles.

NENANA, Alaska, June 1.-THE
unknown Arctic region between the
Colville and Porcupine rivers, where
DR.. Philip S. Smith has led a party of
the United States geological survey
on a perilous mission in exploration,
is the locale of strange tales, spread
among fur traders and gold hunters
by the native Eskimos and Indians.
The territory which the Smith
party has gone to investigate and
chart appears on the maps largely as
blank space. Certain rivers, like
the ColviIle, never have been traced
to their headwaters, and what in the
way Of topography and resources lies
within an area OF 35, 900 square miles
has been a matter of conjecture.
Reports have trickled out of the
polar basin that great lakes of oil
were to be found in this wilderness.
But the Eskinfps and Indians tell
stranger stories. They say the land
is haunted by weird beasts. some of
such immense stature that they leave
tracks as large as dinner platNs. It
is said that no Indian can be per-
suaded to penetrate the region, even
though tempted by the promise of
a abundant fur The lore has 1t that
there are great areas of hot springs,
where the snow never falls and the
Streams never freeze.
Some of the more credulous of the
