From the public's enthusiastic attitude every

to the new line of Cadillacs, it is already
apparent that Cadillac's increase of S7.5 per

1t is evident that the reconciliation of the
Cadillac through the offering of 50 distinct

By the Assoeiated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 6. Assurance
that the German potash deposits will
not be manipulated to the detriment
of the agricultural interests of the
United States or any other nation, is
given by the German potash syndi.
cate in a statement of its policy made
public today Denial that these de-
posts constitute a world monopoly
also was made.
1t was the syndicate's first state
ment, issued as a message to Amer.
can farmers and fnanciers, since Sec
rotary of Commerce Hoover and other
Government officials made It known
that they considered the syndicate's
control of the German potash depos.
its an Objectionable foreign mo-
nopoly," similar to the alleged mo-
nopolies of rubber, coffee and other
: commodities.
Controls All Imports.
The statement was made public in
this country, by H. A. Forbes, vice
president of the Potash Importing
Corporation of America, described as
an organization financed and oper-
ated by Americans, and which con-
trolls the Importation and distribution
of all German potash used In the
United States.
"The very size and quality OF the
German potash DEPOSITS and of the
technical equipment of the German
potash Mines said the statement,
would render foolish any policy of
the German potash syndicate which
would aim ait anything else than the
biggest possible increase of potash
consumption as fertilizer through
out the world. ',s
In national campaigns as to the
use of potash and free availability of
the fertilizer at the lowest prices seon-
sistent with the cost OF production.
were given as the aims of the syndi-
cate. The creation of the syndicate,
said the statement, was, in a way,
an experiment in economic policy
calculated to prevent. for the benefit
of the public; the evils of unchecked
private exploitation of a public COM
modify
Corner" Held Impossible.
Its organization, continues the
statement, has absolutely prevented
any possibilities of 'cornering' the
potash market to the detriment of
the farmer. .
Referring to the syndicate's recent
effort to float a. 5000, 900 bond issue
IN this country, and which was mar.
keted In London after American
bankers had been refused permission
to participate, the syndicate's state
nent said:
THE fact that a considerable
amount of German potash is sold the
American farmer made it appear fair
and reasonable to have American
banking interests participate in the
financing of the German potash SYM
dictate for the benefit of both Ameri.
can consumers and investors. z

SPIRITUAL CULTURE OF
 COUNTRY IS DECLINING
Dr. Jones Of Bryn Mawr DeploreS Lack Of Bible Reading In
 American Homes,

Bryn Mawr, Pa. June LPl - Children of this generation are grow ing up 10 hate the reading of the Bible because spiritual culture IS not being achieved in the modern Sun day school. Dr. Rufus M. Jones, president or the board Of trustees Of Bryn AlaWr college told the gradu- ating class at the 41st commence ment exercises.
 Elghty-one young women received bachelor ot arts degrees. 16 master of arts and four were made doctors of philosophy.
 There are few more tragic things in the modern system of education than the modern Sunday school, !" said Dr. Jones, who is a professor at Haverford college. That which is taught today In Sunday schools of this country is uninspiring, artificial and unnatural because teachers are constantly making efforts to drive home some moral lesson. Conse- quently children become disinterest- ed and therefore the beauty and poetry of the Bible Is lost to the students"
 Dr. Jones also criticised the mod ern system of college education in this country which, he asserted, failed to establish a personal con- tact between the student and tho professor. The effect. he said, was like q stream of truth being turned lon through a hose. some of the students receiving q deluge and others only q sprinkling.

Same Boy Who Won Marble Tilt Last Year Eliminates

The same two boys were oppo- nents in the final game at the Camp school yesterday afternoon in the HeraId-Junior Achievement marble shooting contest who battled for the honors in last years contest and the same boy won by the same number Of marbles.
 The boys called the referees at tention to the fact, but it did not seem possible until last years rec ords were consulted. The records show that Edward Batagowski, 12 years old. met Ira Hirsch, 1@ years old. and that Batagowski won. marbles 10 5. The only difference in the records this year is that Batagowski's age is 13 and Htrsch's II.
 Batagowski lives at 1G7 Hart street and Hirsch at 19 South High street. Both play a very good game and the contest was in doubt un- tll the last moment of play.
 The Washington school is the scene of the marble conflict this afternoon and since there is q zaleski among inc pupils of the school there is bound to be some good play.

FEWER ACCIDENTS
 AT CROSS STREETS
More Occur Between InterSeC- tionS, State Records Reveal

Hartford. June 4-Wbtle the ma ioritv of motor vehicle accidents Te- ported la.t year from the larger ctt- ies of the state shown to have oc- cured at street intersections. most of those in the smaller cities hap pened between intersections, where automobile drivers had an unoo- structed view of all approaching oo- jects.
 Out of the accidents reported for 1925 which have boen analyzed at the state motor vehicle department a.S6q occurred at intersections and lS,054 elsewhere. The average of intersection accidents for the state is greatly reduced by the rural ac- cidents, by far the greater pTopor- ton of which happened on straight away stretches. This influence, how ever. is countcrbalanced, to d con- siderable extent, by the records of the large cities. New Haven had t,764 intersection accidents and 944 between intersections: Bridgeport 1887 at intersections and G6S else where and Hartford 1919 intcrseC- ton mishaps and 1.163 elsewhere.
 On the other hand, Waterbury, the fourth largest city in Connecti- cut. reported 606 intersection acci- dents against S76 which happened between intersections; New Britain had 4l5 at intersections and 47o elsewhere and New London 214 at intersections and 249 elsewhere.
 The weather was reported to have been clear when 1T91T of the ac- cidents of last year happened. and to have been stormy when 4,252 oc- cured. There were 12,769 accidents ln daylight and S,9o1 at night. The slight disparity in the totals is due to the fact that some of the reports were lacking in information in some
