bine Pepsin with other corrective
stomach agents so that it will do the
most good in the shortest possible

Why bother with slow actors,

ing clash between warning Chinese
factions and chief center of foreign
concern in the Orient, shelters a cos
mopolitan American colony, many

years standing, proprietors of valu-
able holdings and employers on big
scale.
Since the British opened the port to
foreign trade, American enterprise
has taken deep root in Shanghai. OF
the 37,758 foreigners in the interna-
tional settlement there, more than
5000 are Americans, representing
heavy investments, and not few

elsewhere.
Unlike Other Centers.
Shanghai, in this respect, differs de-
cidedly from the population centers
in other areas of expansive China. Elk
cept for a few cities, Americans and
other foreigners have seen fit for the
most part to stay out of the interior
regions. Those who have ventured
there in the majority have been mis-

most instances to have made their
way recently to the port cities and to
safety.
1t is natural for Washington Gov
eminent officials who are carefully
surveying the war zones in China
and the nation as q whole to be
chiefly concerned over the Shanghai
situation. They admit that their
major duty lies there and, if the ex-

factions takes place, it will be most
difficult If not impossible to safe
guard the lives and properties of
Americans in Shanghai.
Americans Own Factories.
A survey of that city's business
enterprises reveals, contrary to- the
popular impression, that Americans
are engaged for the most part in the

factories in Shanghai owned by
Americans which, in the aggregate
employ thousands of natives. They

BERLIN.-Helen OF Troy wanders
once more without home in history.
The destruction of her city by the Ho-
meric inhabitants of Greece and it's
islands, long thought we'll established
by archaeological research, is now
called in question by DR.. Erich Bethe,
professor at the University of Leip-
zig.
There is no question that there was
Troy and that it was destroyed. AS
a matter of fact, there were nine
Troys and they were all destroyed. So
much the earlier Investigations
showed. The ruins of nine successive
Evening star., 1927-10-06

cities, each built over the remains of
it's predecessors on the same site, were
excavated by H. Schliemann, a Ger
man archeologist. and Of these the
sixth was designated as the Troy of
Helen and the great siege. The date
of the destruction of this city was de-
termined as about 10000 BIC.
But the recent excavations of DIR.
Berthe have shown that though this
destruction did take place. the destroy
ers were not Greeks or Myceneans,
but northern barbarians from Trace,
who wanted to cross the Hellespont
and settle in Asia Minor. This city on
the straits barred their way. so they
destroyed it. and for centuries it was
not rebuilt. Only a succession OF
wretched villages stood amid the
ruins. All this is indicated by the
numbers and distribution of lost or
broken weapons and household uten-
sils dug up in the ancient mound.
The first evidences OF the incoming
of Greeks, DR.. Bethe states, belong to
about 700 BIC He believes that the
