WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Aner-
lean financial interests now have
more than $1,000. 100000 invested
abroad, 1t is estimated in the annu-
al report Of the Bureau Of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce.
This cotrasts with $4,000, 000, 900
just before the World War and it is
estimated that nearly 5000, 100000
yearly Is being invested by Amer
leans in foreign fields, the report
continued.
The continuance of a favorable
balance Of trade, or an excess of ex-
ports over imports, is mainly due
to the huge foreign investments, the
bureau added. Were 1t not for these,
our trade would balance, or there
might even be an excess of imports.
Exports were valued at $4,754 ,000,-
600 and imports at S4,654, 900 900.
The former figure represents an in
crease of approximately a billion dol
lars in sales of United States goods
abroad since 1922. 1.-THE growth has
been normal and bids fair to con-
tinue. The United States position in
world markets is favorable and salts

NEW EVOLUTION ANGLES
Indian Chief Says While Man Emu
lates Monkey.

BIZ Times NDecfdt
PONCA CITY, Okla, Nov. "a
Put everything before Indian and
all Indians come and divide; put
something before monkey he grab
it all; white men same way; white
man must come from monkey" -
the ideas Of evolution of the Chief of
the Ponca Indians.
Horse Chief Eagle, son of White
Eagle, like his father, is a chief
medicine man and has the right to
speak to his people, the Poncas,
about religious matters. He declares
that there is nothing of the idea of
evolution in the tribal religious be-
liefs of the red man.
Some time ago when the father,
White Eagle. was in Birmingham,
Ala. with a number of his tribesmen,
he was invited to speak from the
pulpit of the First Baptist Church
there. The Indians were in charge
of Colonel Joe Miller, of the 101
ranch, near Ponca City, who acted
as interpreter.
"Our hearts hurt when we do
wrong and therefore we get our pun
ishment in this life" was the gospel
preached by White Eagle to the vast
crowd which damned the church.

PATRONAGE GAINS
AT OYSTER HOUSE

The advance of cool weather has
greatly stimulated business of the
Philadelphia oyster House, 105 z.
Ohio ST.. which is being operated
again this year by J. W. Evering-
ham.
Each day and night patrons are
showing their appreciation of good
oysters, he said. by visiting the res
taurant. With shipments received
fresh from Eastern oyster beds and
careful haDdling of all oysters opened
in the place, business has been good,
he declared.
We handle only the freshest of
Oy te-s opened right in our place
of business, taken from the shell
shortly before the customer orders,
and this makes possible the reten-
ton Of those delicious natural fiavors
which bulk oysters do not have" he
pointed cut.
Everingham personally supervises
the opening of the oysters, luscious
Selects" which are prepared in a
sanitary kitchen and served to suit
the tastes of customers.
"Oysters constitute one of the
most nutritious foods we have, Civ
ing chemicals needed to tone up the
system, as well as supplying rich
protein substance to balance the
diet" Eyeringham explained.
Prepared by recipes which have
been handed down in the Evering-
ham family for many years, the oys-
ters served by him have been pro
nounced unusually delicious.

hospital, his "boarders" and pa

his kindly interest in them.
1--WE believe that we must make

Davis.
"a dog or a cat are sensitive to
the treatment of those in whose care
they are placed. You take a good
dog and mistreat him and you can
never regain the confidence Of that

I'VE make point of trying to win
the confidence and friendship of our

HAVEN OF DIPLOMATS, PRISONERS
AND CHARWOMEN is REMOVED
Old Bench in D. c. Building Which Gave Rest to Men
and Women of High and Low Degree Banned
When Turned Into |sLunch Room''

One Of the venerable hallmarks
OF the District Building-the old
oaken bench which long has ST.
lently and ably performed its duty OF
supporting diplomats. handcuffed pr1s
oners, patrol wagon drivers, news
papermen and elevator operators-has
disappeared from its familiar place in
the corridor outside the Detective Bu-
reau.
1t was the very efficiency Of the old
bench that led to it's downfall.
Being no respecter of persons, 1t
welcomed the elevator operators at
lunch time with just as much SINGER
ity as IT did the diplomats. who now
and then dropped by to report liquor
thefts and such.
Fenning Is Displeased.
The charwomen and elevator con
ductors of the District Building had
grown to love that bench. They gath
cred there at every opportune mo-
ment, and shared with it their lunch
at the noon hour.
However, Commissioner Fenning, in
roaming the corridors of the District
Building the other day. chanced TO spy
the bench and bethought to himself
what restful comfort it could AFFORD
his weary limbs--but for the fact that
it already was completely apd thor
oughly occupied. Had it been occu-
pied by patrolmen or pedestrians, for
whom the Commissioner has great
sympathy, he would. no doubt. merely
have sighed and passed on, or, per
haps, have sat down in the nearby
pressroom to discuss his new t'aTtiG
policies with the. reporters gathered
there.
Reports to Col Bell.
But the bench was occupied not by
persons, like himself, weary OF limb
from walking, but by Colored elevator
operators who travel miles each day
without putting one foot in front of
another.
Commissioner Fenning. it is said.
halted a moment. arChed his eyebrows
as he witnessed the last remnant of q
sardlne sandwich wigsle its way down
the throat of one Of the bench's oc-
cupantS, and hurried from the scene
with much concern.
A short time later Commissioner
Fenning reported his experience TO

The .sterv in his own words:
The bench had worn out its use
( EulncsS. II didn't belong out there
