Paris, Aug. 1.-THE fall OF
the franc and the ensuing govern
ment order that the smallest pur-
chase of foreign money must be
registered have resulted in the
growth of the new class of boot
leggers, the outside law dealers in
small American and English bills.
There are thousands of foreign
ers living in southern France on
extremely small incomes, many of
them receiving their remittances
from home in the form of small
notes sent by registered mail. The
bootleggers makes a list of these
people and arrange to change
their home money as they need
French currency and at higher
rate than is paid by the banks. His
second list of customers includes

NO ALIMONY in

WIFE OF LUDENDoRFF is
RECEIVING PENSION
GRANTED
my Associated PressD

BERLIN, Aug. 11.-Gen. E. F.
Ludendorff, whose wife was re-
Gently granted divorce on
grounds of neglect, draws a pen
sion of $1,000 marks a year from
the federal government it has
been revealed. Though he is re-
ported to have made a substantial
cash and property settlement on
his former wife, no alimony was
agreed upon because the court
realized, it is said, that Luden-
dorff's pension might be shut off
at any time.
Ludendorff, who is G1, is one
of 10000 officers who served
under the former Kaiser and are
drawing pensions from the repub-
lie totalling $31,00o,000 o year.
Few of them are incapacitated.
They were retirely because the
peace treaty limited the regular
army to 100000 men. Democrats,
Socialists and Communists have
have been trying to abolish the
pensions, especially because of the
many officers like Ludendorff are
connected with national fascist
organizations.

IDENTIFIED
my Associated rress,


PARIS, Aug. 11.-Although it
is narly eight years s.nce the end
of the World War, American
searchers in the old battle area
are continually finding bodies of
American soldiers who fell in bat
lie and were buried hastily nearby.
Searching has been going more or
less regularly during the entire
period since the armistice, but in
recent months the Oise-Aisne,
Meuse-Argonne and Somme sec
tors have been literally combed
with the resul. that 261 bodies
have been found, of which IT'S
have been positively identified.
The searching work is being
done by three separate parties
consisting of an American inves-
tigator and, fou. or five laborers.
The investigator works by map
and terrain over ground where GER
tain regiments and battallions
fought and from which men are
still carried as missing. The
quick growth of vegetation has
made the work difficult, as grass
and bush have grown over tenn
porary burial places and, in fact,
/ changed the entire appearance of
! The land.
Recently the bodies of seven
) marines were found in the Oise-
Aisne sector. buried together, this
being one of the largest finds
in many months as usually only
single bodies are recovered.

So serious has the problem OF store
service become that there is a distinct
tendency. according TO the Depart
ulcut OF Commerce, for stores to lease
certain departments to the manufac-
turers whose products are sold there
and allow the producers to install
their own sales people. At least 80
per cent of the department stores of
the country have at least one leased
department. the Government officials
say.
