ESKIMO BOYS AND GIRLS PLAY WITH TIE
 C0STLIE:sT IF T0YS

Eskimo and Alaskan Indian boys and girls play with the most valu- able toys on earth. They are carved rom ivory, product of the north land. Young Eskimo boys have a buzzer something akin to our spin nig top. The buzzer is made of a circle of ivory with wee peg of driftWood fastened in the center. Started whirling by a long string of reindeer hide it spins for several minutes
 Then there is the marvellous bull roarer This toy is made of sections cut from a big walrus tusk with string of hide run through them. When swinging around through the air this toy roars like the rumble of thunder.
 They also possess tiny spears and tlshooks cut from Walrus bones, small crossbars with ivory tipped arrows, beautiful little kayaks a. bout 8 foot long, cleverly fashioned from skins and manned with cary--

ivorv hunters. Each one holds .t paddle of bone, bone harpoon, a wee float of seal skin and delicate hide lariats.
 | Little sleds of ivory, only a few inches long, yet perfectly formed, with several ivory dogs hitched with reindeer hide harness are treasured possessions of Eskimo boys. Deer, whales, bears, seals all sorts of queer fish and birds are carved from pure ivory and given to the children at Yuletide. Beautiful little ivory birds of the far North, penguin and the murre, are cut so delicately from ivory as to astonish the examiner.
 There are ivory thimbles for the girls, tiny ivory pins for their coarse, black hair, toggels or clasps for fur belts, shopping bags of white fur from the Arctic hare.
 Some boys have a marvellous drum made of a thin strip of whale bone bent to form a circle. Both sides are covered with tightly stretched shark skin. Two little walrus bones are drum sticks and no snow igloo can contain the noise that radiates from the in- strments.
 Many of these toys reach the larger cities of the United States but are too expensive for general distribution.

breakdown and will leave tomor-

EUROPEAN TRADERS
BLAMED FOR CRASH
Theory Is Advanced Here in
Quarters That Ought
to Know.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Who raided the American stock mar
ket?
This question may never be answered
conclusively and may prove one of the
mysteries of the century, but the theory
advanced here in quarters that ought to
know is that European traders caught
thier American brethren of their
guard. Reports indicate that the first
large selling came from London and
represented a feeling on the part OF
European holders of American securi-
ties that the time had come to unload.
When the call money market began
to drop recently and was not accom-
panied by any rise in American stocks,
European traders smelled a rat. They
had noted that IN the past 12 months
whenever there was a decline in money
rates the stock market made new highs.
They observed how the broker loans
mounted and money rates kept well
over per cent while the discount rate
was below that figure.
Then suddenly call money dropped to
5 per cent without response from the
stock market spectators. Europe de-
cided that the bottom had been reached
that speculation had run its course and
got out from under in such quick fash
ion that it caught American traders by
surprise-this is the theory and it is
backed up by opinions from those who
have kept in touch with selling opera
tions.
Difficult to Trace Theories.
If there is to be a congressional inves-
tigation it will be difficult, of course, &c
run down such theories because 1t would
be necessary to have record Of what
happened when the big break in the
market came last week. There is nc
guilt attaching to anybody who decided
to sell out, so the only value of the in
quiry would be to satisfy the curiosity
of the investigators.
The subject might become pertinent,
however, If some Of the operations OF
investment trusts are inquired into.
What influences control modern money
markets? Is there concerted money
power which can govern the Specula-
tive markets? The vain efforts made
by the pools to steady the markets in
the last few days may prove better than
all the investigations here how feeble
is any investment group in a market
that is world wide. What may be dis
covered is that what has hitherto been
regarded as a local matter is an in
ternational problem.
For a long time American authorities
have been nervous about the great
quantities of gold kept on deposit In
the United States by foreign central
banks. The fear has been expressed

Government Studies to Find

b. Science Service
MEXICO CITY, April 5-While
United States authorities are &C.
cupied with the case of the Mexican
worker in American fields and fac
tories, the Mexican government on
its part is investigating the home
angle of the problem and devising
means of keeping the emigrant at
home.
In the last century and a half,
while the population of the United
States has increased more than
forty fold, that Of Mexico has
hardly quadrupled, and Mexico is as
anxious to keep her nationals at
home as some American groups are
to keep them out.
DR.. Manuel Gamio, who has made
a study Of the problem, has already
pointed out that Mexican emigra-
ton is a modern movement, but one
which has worked so fast that it
could practically empty the coun-
try in another fifty years if nothing
stopped it.
Unemployment and economic mis-
cry at home are back of the migra-
tory movements, and one of the
first recommendations of experts
working in the Mexican department
Of the interior. according to an an
nOuncement of Minister Felipe

Of workers and unemployed is now
being worked on by Minister Of In

P. de Negri.
Such a plan would not only pro-
vide work at home for MeXicans who
might otherwise emigrate to the
United States. but could otherwise
help to initiate an era of Mexican
national enterprise such as is now
practically noneXistent. Minerals, oil,
coffee, sugar, banana, cacao and
other of MeXico's sources Of wealth
nre today almost exclusively ex-
plotted by foreign interests and do
not therefore form the powerful
