100000 BUSHELS
OF GRAIN IN STORAGE
Elevators ut Baltimore So Full
That Railroads Keep Ban

Special Dispatch to The star.


BALTIMORE, February 5.-Over
100000 bushels Of grain were In
storage In the local elevators at the
end of January. the greatest amount
on record for this port. This figure
compares with 100000 bushels at
the end of December. The continued
heavy receipts during January of
wheat, rye and barley, the increased
elevator capacity of the port and the
slow export movement of these com
modities account for the large accu-
mutation.
This, in turn, has resulted in a con-
tinuation of the embargees placed
some time ago by the Pennsylvania,

ROBBED HAIR BRINGS ; .. Jc.WORK FOR WOMEN
Many Became Hairdressers and Are Eaining More Money Than
 Male Barbers.

London, March 13.--The women and girls of England are being ab- sorbed back into industry far more quickly than the men and boys, &C., cording to recent statistics on uncm- ployment. Hair dressing, owing to the bobbed hair craze, has given cm- ployment to Q large number of young women who earn better wages than the men barbers because of the extra charges made for trimming ,hobbcd locks. Men in London pay approximately 25 cents for hair cut, while women pay double that amount.
 Last spring there were S,000,0 900 women among the unemployed of Great Britain, while today the num- Der is something like 250,000. AL though about 1,0OO,000 extra women end girls are now at work com pared with the figures of the year before the beginning of the war, women and girls together do not represent one-quarter of the total number of unemployed. Government officials say there is every indication that the number of unemployed, both men and women, will be great ly reduced during this year.

ITALIANS PLEASED WITH CABLE LINE
Enthusiasm Shown When First ]. Link With America Is Finished

Rome, March 13. - The conclu- sion this month of the work of lay ing a submarine cable from Anzio, Italy to Malaga, Spain, whereby Italy is for the first time joined by direct cable to the North American continent, is being hailed with en- thusiasm by that large section of the Italian population which turns avidly towards the United States for inspiration for Italy's fast grow ing commercial and industrial life,
 But the completion of the cable also is having the effect of empha- sizing the extent to which Italy has up until eapresent occupied a peculiarly insular role in regard to daily news communication with the Americas. and even with northern and western Europe.
 The, Roman newspapers and there are but few large Italian newspapers outside of Rome, are fashioned in conformity with the Latin journalistic idea that opin- ion Is more important than news, and that news should have the color brought to it by the personal viewpoint of the reporter or the political creed of the journel.
 Each newspaper publishes but q scant few columns of news from abroad, and most of that comes from nearby countries, France most often. These columns treat almost exclusively of political happenings. and only occasionally of news events,
 Fresh news is scarce and for freak and human interest stories, which the Italians love as much as do the Aemricans, the Rome daiIies rely on venerable foreign newspapers, rewriting unashamedly everything which pleases them without bother : ing about the time of its origin.
 Practically all news from the United States comes by way of Lon don and Paris, and much of it suf- fers strange distortion wbich indi- cates the relay race it has run.
