SUICIDE TOLL REFLECTS BAD
 YEAR OVER AT MONTE CARLO

Recently. according 10 reports. there were six suicides in four days three by shooting and three by drowning off the Suicide Rocks.'
 Suicides at Monte Carlo are &C., cepted by the old-timers with a fatalistic shrug. like the fateful fall of the little ivory ball.
 The victims are fairly whisked away. and unless relatives or friends quickly claim the bodies, nothing more is heard of them. Tho presumably are buried in the my terious cemetery. which is situate near the border between La Conc mine and Beausoleil.
 A high wall surrounds this pl, and entrance is gained through small doorway, which is alv@ closed to those visitors who mana to locate it. Within are the gray of the unknown" They remaii unmarked.
 Ask a Monaco policeman about his cemetery and he will say I' does not exist. Officially it does not. It's grim secret is we'll guarded. It is place Of desolation.

Paris, May 2l. = The fashionable season at Monte Carlo has waned. with considerable evidence of one of the worst seasons since the war There have been bad breaks al. around.
 The gaming rooms have worried along Nike factories through period of economic stress. And over in the valley from the Casino there is a little isolated plot of ground that tells grim story of bad luck for the Casinos customers. It is the suicides cemetery.
 Censorship
 Monaca manages its affairs in its own way, and is particularly iealous of its reputation for fun, rroiic ana sunsnne. Any incident that reflects on this reputation is subjected to the strictest censorship. Suicieds are immediately husbed Up and all evidence of them quick ly removed. so only through gossip sible to get any idea of the unhap- pier side of life there. a.
