RUM HUNT NETS
PUSH IN FACE

The way Of the liquor runner
may, like that Of the transgres-
sor, be hard, but then again "the
life Of a policeman is not always
a happy one."
Detective A. D. Mansfield, OF
the First precinct, now detailed
on road patrol for rum runners
will bear witness to that fact
following an experience last
night, in which he was pushed
in the face and watched his
quarry speed away.
Mansfield and Detective Otho
L. Blackwell were detailed at
Nichols Avenue and Good Hope
Road Southeast, when the for
mer noticed q coupe speeding
down the road. He forced the
car into the curb and as he
stepped to the running board,
the door flew open, hand flew
out and Mansfield flew to the
ground. .-.

lie. This includes approximately
$50 100000 in 81 bills. Since that
date the amount retired has been
comparatively small.
The treasury has several theories
concerning the failure of the money
to show up. In the first place, it
must be remembered that the re-
cord of July 10, 1929, covered the
entire period during which the bills
were issued. The treasury, of
course, had no way of computing
the amount Of old money outstand-
ing except by taking the entire fig
ure that had been issued. It had
to be prepared to hand back 81 in
the new money for each dollar ever
issued of the old.
Since only about $6,OOO,OOO of the
old paper outstanding is 81 bills, it
is apparent that a large proportion
of the remainder must be in bills
of the very high denominations.
The treasury assumes, therefore,
that some Of this money must be
in the hands of banks holding
them temporarily for reserves.
Probably a sizable portion of the
old bills are being boarded. Many
people probably have one or two of
them as souvenirs and will not turn
them in until they become broke"
and are compelled to spend them.
Many more, however, probably
have been hidden by persons with
the strange human instinct for
playing the miser. That kind of
lost currency may turn up eventual
ly after the hoarder dies and his
estate is divided. If past exper-

u. S. Treasury Cannot Find
Billion In Old Paper Money
Treasury Wonders What Has Be.
come of Cash-Hoarding, Re-
serves Two Theories

Somewhere in the country more
than $1,000, 100000 in real money is
hidden, boarded or lost.
The treasury is hunting for it.
The prospects of success in the
search are uncertain and many mill
lions, perhaps hundreds of millions
of dollars, never will be found.
The disappearance of this vast
pile of cash was disclosed recently
in response to inquiries of treasury
officials as to what has become of
the old paper currency which now
has almost completely vanished
from circulation.
When the government began issu-
ing the new small-size currency Ju-
ly 10, 1929, the books showed $5,-
12OOO0,OOO old-style paper money
outstanding. The treasury at once
began retiring the bills as rapidly
as it was possible to replace them
with the new currency. For a
while, the bureau of printing and
engraving, operating day and night
was unable to keep up with the de-
mand for the new bills.
Up until the first of this year, it
was the policy of the treasury to
retire only the ragged and dirty
bills which were plainly unfit for
further use. Since January 1, how
ever, all the old currency received
has been retired and only the new
cfxy1o onI xyn11Nxryho nlyc &c
sued.
In spite of the extraordinary rate
of retirement, the latest checkup
made after the peak demand for the
new currency had subsided showed
an astonishing amount of the old
bills still outstanding. On March
81, the records showed $1,336, ,OOO,O 900
of the old large-sized bills still
somewhere in the hands of the pub

Cost Of Farm Operations
Have Changed Materially
Census Returns Will Show Remark
able Development - Potential
Possibilities Great

Washington, June 16.-How far
American agriculture has swung
toward large scale operations will
be revealed for the first time by the
1880 census.
Of more Importance to the issue
than the mere enumeration of farm
consultations the Genus will show
the extent to which the new cost
reduction methods have replaced
expensive small-unit operations on
farms no larger than they were 10
years ago.
When the census figures of 1925
on the size of farms are compared
with similar figures from the 1920
census, no startling changes are
shown.
Since 1925 however, develop
ments have been under way which
have resulted in a remarkable in
crease in the size Of farms in GER
tain areas.
c. L. Holmes of the bureau of ag-
ricultural economics says there
have been a few conspicuous deve-
