 IF CHICAGO SUBURB

CHICAGO, March 2. (P-The in- dustrial suburb of Cicero which knits itself into Chicago's southwest fringe is returning to it's wonted quietude after a spectacular heyday on the front pages. Almost complete, say county and federal officials, is the community's liberation from gangsters who brought it into the news with the machine gun staying last spring of w. H. McSwiggin, assistant county prosecutor.
 The wrecking of "The Ship" ter minated long endeavor by county police to cleanse the community. They declare it ended the career of one of the biggest gambling resorts in the country, reputed to have done a daily business of $5OO,O00 in gamb- ling games and handbook operations covering every track in North Ameri- ca.
 No limit ever was known to have been placed on bet, and story is told that two gamblers tossed a coin there for the first throw of the dice, rolling them once for $2O0, ,OOO while a temporarily insolyent com rade staked himself by charging s5 admission to the room in which the game was played.
 "The Ship" was named for a cafe on San Fanfrisco's extinct Barbary coast. Officials never could learn who owned it or the s2O,OOO worth of gambling equipment destroyed when it was wrecked

.FRENCHMAN ALWAYS SELLS HIS GOODS 1T \ PROFIT

PARIS, March 2. (P)-"Quick sales and small profits" is all Greek to the average little French merchant and his refusal to change his ways is a big factor in holding up retail prices.
 It is a principle in French business to see everything at profit. The profit may be small and it may be more than offset by interest on the investment and overhead by the time the article is sold, but the small tradesman doesn't like to sac rifice today with the hope of making it all back tomorrow.
