German Reichstag Members Want Raise But Are Afraid to Ask For It.

Berlin, Sept. 1S-Members of the reichstag appear to be unanimous on one question-that is raise in salary. So far, however, no mem Der has dared bring in bill voting himself an increase, although it Is generally agreed that s1700 a year is inadequate.
 Albrecht Morath, representative of the peoples party of which Foreign Minister Gustav Stressemann is leading member. says few reichstagers manage to live in Berlin nine months in the year on their salaries.
 Before the republic established. he serts. members received s715 a year, but the reichstag was in session only a few months. Now the expenditures for postage alone said to be several hundred dollars, members having no frankng privilege, as in the United States,

 Then the eyes of the banker and player met. The former, judge in the Paris criminal courts, recognized in his successful adversary a man accused of huge swindl,ng scheme, whom he had let out on bail few days pre- Vously.

Challenger Never Felt Better Be-

Stroudsburg Pa, Sept. IS (Pe-
 The date of Gene Tunney's move
 ment on Philadelphia for his cham
 piOnship bout with Jack Dempsey Thursday night remains uncertain.
 The challenger and his associates
 have not decided whether the exo-
 dus from Stroudsburg shall take
 place late Wednesday or early Thursday. In any event the work Wednesday will not be strenuous,
 the real training period coming to
 a close Tuesday. Boxing is on the program for all Of the days to be spent in camp here but after to- morrow the work will be private.
 The challenger has completely re covered his equilibrium-if indeed. it ever went astray. He seemed a bit upset Thursday but he was well
 poised in yesterdays workout and unruffled today with no suspicion of
 inertia.
 Tunney. himself, declared today that he never felt better and is sat isfed with his condition. Lou Fink.
 his trainer, said that the training plans have moved according 10 schedule and expressed confidence
 that the inter will be right for his supreme test.

TRAINS ON RED WINE

Good red wine and plenty of it while train- ing for flight, forms part of the diet of Jean Cailizo, who recently brought the worlds alti- tude record to 12442 meters-about 4S,500 feet
 The highest man in the world" as the French have dubbed him, recently deprecated the dangers and hardships of these high flights. He admitted, however, that even with oxygen flowing into his lungs from a tank breathing became difficult after reaching 5000 metres.
 The rush of blood to the head at these alti- tudes made him very uncomfortable and gen eraly left him stone deaf for several hours But as long as the barograph registered prog ross upward, these annoyanccs were forgotten Only when the instrument was stationary did the pain become intense, thc record holder said.

PARIS- American Bungalow Type of House is Becoming Popular Throughout France.

Paris, Sept. 1s-The bungalow. Idea is spreading rapidly in France Scores of little houses are being constructed in every suburb about Paris for people who few years ago thought 1t would be beneath their dignity to live in anything less than a large uncomfort- able villa with several servants to keep things in order.
 The French middle classes took the "pavil- ions" as they were called at first as part of the postwar hardships, but now finding them compact, comfortable and of light upkeep, are accepting them gladly as a respite from the drudgery and expense of the old-fashioned houses

CHARLOTTE MILLS ALMOST FRANTIC
 AFTER MURDER OF HER MOTHER

time I got home. who my friends were. what mother did evenings, afternoons, Sundays - Oh. things that make me choke with shame and anger, they were so unjust and cruel.
 But the Hall family! They were treated with every consideration and delicacy. They seemed to be held sacred. I don't doubt Mrs. Hall suffered. but compared with what we went through in those days and since, she doesn't know what humil- iation means.
 But I will not put too much bit- terness in this story. There is much kindness in the world after all, and some justice.
 Letters began to pour in upon me. For every nasty one I must have gotten five sweet ones. In all, both after the investigation four years ago, and now, during the reopening of the case, I have received several hundred letters.
 One man wrote that my picture reminded him of a lost love, and he wanted me to marry him on the strength Of that. I have had at least 80 proposals. A mother wrote that her daughter was lonely and maybe was too, and wouldn't I come and visit them and feel at home? I loved that letter.
 Many contained invitations for the day-to dinner, for motor rides, etc, usually ending with the sentiment: You must feel lost and need com- panionship. We offer you friend ship" These were beautiful, kind letters
 Then a man wrote. saying he had five children and would like me to marry him and help take care of them! One chap at Saranac Lake said he admired the stand l took at the hearings and by writing to Gov ernor Edwards that time 10 say l was dissatisfied with the way the in Ivestigations flickered out, and would l like to correspond with me. | A woman and her daughter who said they were working people sent me many gifts-mostly things they made. They sent a whole suitcase of things, and 1t touched me very deeply. There were blouses and cuff ff-and collar sets, stockings, work aprons, slippers, nightgowns. like pajamas myself, so I gave the nightgowns to friend. But they
 sent a lovely suit and l wore 1t four years. It must. have been expensive, and I confess I adore quality ! things. I'd rather have one good dress or hat and wear it all the time than a dozen cheap rags.
 1 Among the unkind letters was one that said I was publicity seeker and a bad girl: and in a separate parcel the writer sent a black crepe veil advising me to wear that and not be so brazen. Black crepe makes good dusting cloths.

Meantime federal troops are still securing the region where the crime was com mitted in an endeavor to round up the rest of the bandits. In reply 10 another formal note sent by the American embassy to the foreign office the embassy has received as- surances that the Mexican au- thorities have been doing and will continue 10 do everything possible to round up and punish the mur- derers.
