months since the new immigration
act went into effect, found his

NARCOTIC PROBLEM SERIOUS
 BUT OVERDRAWN

We read and hear frequently that there are millions of narcotic addicts in the United States and that the insidious national menace is yearly assuming more alarming proportions. Serious as the situation is, the men, ace of the opium octupus has been greatly exaggerated. On the author ,ity of Colonel L. G. Mutt, chief of the narcotic division of the United States Public Health service, we have it that drug addiction as a vice will vanish from this country with the present generation of users" The traffic in narcotics is something to- ward which the preventative ener- gies of the nation should be and will be directed, but the notion that the sinister dope peddlers are undermin- ing the morality of our youth by in

EASY MARKS

If you have to own a trillion Ger man paper marks-that is, million million in paper value-you will be able to cash them in with the next 2 months for the value of one gold mark, which is slightly less than 25 cents in American money. If your invest ment" was in less than trillion print ing press marks, you can figure it's present value for yourself by the sim pie porcess of division.
 It is probable that few Americans notwithstanding the great rush for the purchase of wall paper" marks during the great splurge," own a cents worth of marks on the basis of their redeemable worth
 Holders of paper marks have until June in which to present their hoarded wealth" to the German na- tional bank for redemption. On that date all the currency issued by Ger many prior to the adoption of the re- cent "rentenmark" will become value less-if it may be said that it is not already in that zero class. All the holders will have to show for their wisdom in things financial and their faith in the integrity of the German government will be few carloads of paper and wry memory.
 How much will be lost through the guileless purchase of worthless Ger man currency probably never will be known. It is estimated that Germany is the winner in the transaction by close to s2,000,OOO, a large part of which has been paid by Americans who speculated in German exchange.
 Yet it is difficult to shake the faith of holders of worthless money con- pletely. Worthless oil and gold stocks possessing "par" value of billions are held by trustful Americans who still entertain a sneaking hope that they will come back" Likewise, Ameri, cans, Englishmen, Germans and others who have trunkfuls of paper marks will cling to their currency" in the hope that sometime, perhaps, their financial judgment will be vindicated. Yet the Vancouver Province remarks pointedly that ito bring the paper mark back to par the German govern ment would need to control all the ne- gotiable wealth of the world, and more, for in single day the author

Officials are now searching for an aged watch man and his wife who were quartered in the burning building.

ities of Berlin were able to print more money than mankind has mined in all it's history.
 It is noteworthy that while the Ger man printing presses were running at maximum speed and the value of the mark was declining so fast that new quotations were issued every few min utes, the big industrialists of Ger many were not hoarding paper marks; that doubtful mark of shrewdness was left to Germany's unlimited sucker list.
 There is not the slightest doubt that the German government deliber- ately debased it's currency with the intention of wiping out it's internal debt by appealing to the cupidity of spectators at home and abroad. In the process it pauperized millions of it's own people, but that was only de- tail

 The greatest automobile fortunes have been built up within consider ably less than a generation The Dodge fortune was the work of a little less than a third of a genera tlon. The interests which have ac- quired the properties paid at least $50,OO0,000 for good will' which is believed to be the largest price for such an item ever commanded in a cash transaction.

 CAMDEN, N. J., April 23.-Prose- son, really belongs in the newly rich" class, for a quarter of cen tury ago the automobile wizard was just getting his stride on the road to big business. It seems, too, that there is no end to the expansion of the Ford business. AS an individual industrialist, Ford is without a peer. He has purchased iron mines, rail- roads, coal properties, fleets of steam ships and other accessories" of his automobile business with shrewdness but with as much seeming abandon as he would buy ice cream for Sun- day school picnic.
 Industrial bigness is an American characteristic, and it has developed despite a seemingly popular preju- dice against "big business" Oddly, it's greatest development has been during the period when antitrust sentiment was most violent. Today, public opinion is far more tolerant than it was ten or twenty years ago. Big business has been accepted at least on probation, because it has been considerably chastened and be- cause it is a fact instead of theory It's size now is a factor secondary to the consideration as to whether it deals fairly with the public.
