Forging a Signature
Successfully Not Easy

The news published recently that q
claim Of f125,0O0 (nominally $3.50, ,OOO)
has been made against q great Lon
don bank in connection with alleged
forgeries has caused q sensation In
financial circles. The amount involved
Is so large that. should the allegations
prove correct, the crime will easily
rank as one Of the greatest Of Its kind
Of recent years.
Tho crime Of forgery Is comparative
iy rare. This Is probably due to the
fact 1t Is one fraught with great diff
Guilty and serious danger.
Bankers have the greatest conf.
dence In their ability to recognize their
customers signatures, and their COM
merciaI and legal brethren. who do not
act on q signature unless II is verified
by that Of witness, must be moved
to admiration when they see bank
cashier paying out hundreds Of pounds
to perfect stranger on the strength
OF single sigma ture on check, writes
banker in the London Mail.
That their confidence is not mis-
placed Is seen from the fact that q
successful forgery practically never
takes place, although on busy day
more than million checks pass
through the London clearing house
alone, while the check turnover of the
British isles is some 100000, 100000 a
year.
1t is, indeed, almost impossible to
Initiate successfully another mans sig
nature. The handwriting may be most
skillfully copied, but the criminal can
not get that personality and character
into the signature which alone are the
keynote of its genuineness.

people together by ties OF common
knowledge and for common pur.
pose. We have resources OF labor so
abundant that we have placed an ar.
titicial check upon immigration.
These things are our material re-
sources. They constitute the basic
material element but the real
foundation of our progress is not ma.
terial. 1t is that other. more valuable
resource-the capacity and chara ter
of our people. To that we owe the
discovery and development of our
natural resources, their use and their
conservation; to that we owe the es.
tablishment and development of a
nation founded on ideals OF equal
rights, ideals of equal opportunity
ideals OF equal responsibility. which
remain today untarnished, which now
shine forth with greater luster than
ever before.
Inc Character OF Our People
From it have come the patience and
the wisdom which have reconciled
effective authority and adequate lib
erty. From it has come the tolerance
which has preserved freedom OF
speech. of press and of pulpit. From
1t has come the foresight which es.
tablished free public schools. From
II has come the courage which com.
manded adherence to principle at the
cost OF selfish gain, even at the cost
OF life itself. From ii has come the
respect for the rights and privileges
OF ones fellow man which has found
expression in guarantees OF equal rep
resentation and universal suffrage.
The character OF our people is a
spring which has never run dry. Il
has had its source ever and always
in the stern and firm faith OF the
Pilgrim fathers-a political faith
based upon and grounded in the
tenets Of the Christian religion. De-
spite every other influence, the
strong and steady current OF the Pi.
grim's faith has persisted through
generation after generation.
II is this invaluable resource-the
capacity and character OF our people
that has made America great in the
past, that will make America greater
and more powerful In the future. As
long as we uphold our established
standards OF belief and conduct. we
need have no fear for the future OF
America.

Relics Dug Up Proue
China Had a Stone Age

Discoveries made in China by ]. G.
Anderson, Swedish scientist, estab-
lish, in his belief. that China had a
Stone age. At Fengtlen the expedition
headed by Professor Anderson exon
waited cave about 8 by IS feet. In It
were found bones from about 40 hui
man bodies and a large number of
objects, none Of which was OF metal.
The objects included arrowheads,
stone axes, bone avis, curious stone
rings and tiny piece of animal sculp-
ture made Of marble, fragments OF re
markable vessels, some with pressed
geometrical patterns and others with
a polished red surface ornameuted
boldly In black. Professor Anderson
dates the cave to the transition he
tween the Stone age and the Bronze
age, or about 2OOOlJOO b. c.
Large collections of remains also
were found at Yang Shao, including
specimens Of red and black ceramic
objects similar to those found at Feng-
ten. Heretofore leading experts on
Chinese history have held that there
was on evidence OF Stone age IN
China.
