these, it was stated, all beef eaten
by navy men in the United States
must be bought from American
firms.
In outlying stations, however,
regulations provide beef must be
purchased from the firm offering
the lowest prices for beef of a
specified quality. This policy often
results in purchase of foreign beef,
it was said.
Due to falling wheat market,
the farm question has become per-

while, the federal farm board,
focal point of Democratic attacks,
Is understood to have decided to
brave the storm of western criti-
cism rather than add to the
100000 bushels of wheat already
taken from the market.

SECRET AGENT
WOOS GIRL TO
END SMUGGLING
Customs Fraud Is Barred as
Lover Wins Affections of
Fair ConSpirator.
Bv United Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE story
of how a secret service agent
learned intricacies of a smuggling
system by counting pretty girl,
was told today.
When the market was flooded with
Swiss watches at comparatively low
prices, the government became SuS-
picious and found clew which led
to Biel. Switzerland, where Marie
Salzmann, 81. was conducting an
exporting business.
A special Ggent was sent from
Italy and he courJed the girl with
such success that he won her COM
plete confidence. From her he
learned that the watches were being
shipped to this country as pottery
and bronze Ind passed through the
customs by two bribed appraisers.
The agent also learned the secret
of the Smuggler's code which CEN
tered about the two words, Esther"
and uncle" 1t soon was appar-
ent that Esther" meant shipments
and uncle" meant customs brokers
on this side.
Esther is sick and should go
back to Europe" read one message
which. thanks to the agents work,
was interpreted to mean that as
soon as the shipment reaches this
city it should be sent back.
With these facts to work with.
United States attorney, and Max
we'll S. Mattuck. counsel for the
American Watch Importers Asso-
citation, have been successful in
convicting two smugglers as well
as two appraisers at the United
States appraisers store.

REDS, FASCISTS
HOPE FOR CAIN
IN RHINELAND
Germans Look Forward to
General Elections on
Sept. ID.
BY FREDERICK KUN
United Press stan Correspondent

BERLIN, July 19.-Germany, I'M
der a dictatorship. looked forward
today to the Sept. IA general cleo
lions as a chance to rectify the par
liamentary unwieldiness which pre-
vented the government from OBJ
tanning majorities on its financial
measures and forced the dissolution
of the Reichstag.
1t appeared today that an inten-
sive campaign would be waged by
all parties. and that some of them
undoubtedly would dwindle con-
siderably in the new Reichstag, II
they did not disappear altogether.
The conservative parties will ap-
peal to the electorate to choose a
Reichstag that can give President
Paul Won Eindenburg and future
cabinets a sufficient majority for a
safe and sane policy in Germany.
All Seek Strength
The more extreme parties, such as
the Communists and Fascists, hoped
that the elections would serve to
their advantage by pulling them up
from low representation in the
Reichstag to positions Of compar-
alive strength.
Much basis was given for the
Communists confidence due to the
large number of unemployed work.
ers. many of whom are certain to
support Communist candidates in
the hope of lettering their con-
dition.
The anti-Semitic Fascists, who
call themselves national Socialists,
undoubtedly will form the greatest
threat to the strength of the more
conservative parties, however. With
twelve deputies in the last Reichstag,
they were in ninth position, but
they are likely to move into third
place in the new elections with only
the Socialists and Catholics ahead
Of them
Nationalist in Split
The "Nazis," as they are known
popularity, will gain chiefly at the
expense of the Nationalist, who
split for the second time Friday.
DR.. Alfred Hugenberg remained as
leader of the orthodox Nationalist,
while the two seeding elements in
Dictated they would combine under
DR.. Gottfried TreviranuS and Count
Westarp, and fight the orthodox
Nationalist for votes.
The folks party has ebbed con-
siderably since the death of the
late foreign minister, DR.. Gustav
Stresemann, ana the Democratic
nd Economic parties also are likely
to lose several seats in September.
The Economic party is a new group
which captured twenty-three seats
in the 1928 elections.

A Boston newspaper suggests that such Gold Star
mothers as are unable to accept the governments
offer Of q free trip to France be given, instead, q cash
settlement OF $3.50, which is approximately the cost Of
each trip.
There Is a good deal Of sense TO this. Many mothers
whose sons died overseas cannot afford 70 take the
trip, even when all expenses are paid. They have
10 earn livings for themselves and their families. IN
deed, the Boston paper making this proposal esti-
mates that not more than a third Of the eligible Gold
Star mothers Will be able to 60.
To make these cash payments would. Of course,
greatly increase the cost to the government Of the
whole plan. But its a rather expensive undertaking
at best. Making cash payments TO mothers who can
not afford to accept the free trip would bring a good
deal Of help to homes that need it badly.

Miracle

For an example Of the miracles which modern in
vention can work, we commend to you an event that
took place recently during the arny-navy war
games" at San Francisco.
An army airplane, circling over the Golden Gate,
spotted two enemy submarines coming in toward
that famous entrance 70 San Franciscos harbor.
One Of the observers IN the airplane hastily drew
a sketch map Of the position Of the two submarines.
He handed the map to a radio engineer who was seat
ed in the plane. This man inserted the paper IN a
little cylindrical machine. Just A seconds later a
complete reproduction Of the map was transcribed on
q receiving apparatus at an army airport. IS miles
away. Instantly a fleet Of bombers took off to 60 out
and destroy the invading submarines.
There is an uncanny quality to that miracle that is
fairly staggering. Imagine It: q man seated IN an air
plane a thousand or so feet above the earth draws q
picture which is reproduced almost simultaneously on
the ground rs miles away and enables a group Of pilots
TO 60 out and sink two vessels which are not even
visible on the face OF the water!
You could not 90 much farther in performing the
impossible.
It is q little bit disturbing to realize that this par
ticular miracle was devised for the purpose Of taking
human lives an destroying property. Sometimes 1t
seems as If mankind's inventive faculties work best
only when someone is preparing to wipe some Of his
fellow mortals off the face Of the earth.
Yet there Is a bright side TO it. at that.
Shortly after causing the destruction Of the sub
marines. these two armen, still circling high in the
aus. saw dnOtner army dHp4dne plunge Z lEc cdIt4l,
out Of control. saw its pilot leap into the air with q
parachute to save his life. Promptly they dashed off
another sketch and transmitted it to headquarters
50 that the exact location Of the accident could be
made known and aid rushed to the spot at once.
This stunt was a sort Of afterthought. Of course;
yet 1t indicates that this amazing device for making
destruction certain can also be used for more hu-
nnanitarian purposes.
In that respect. an optimist can find the whole
business symbolic. II he wants to.
The human brain Is capable Of performing genuine
miracles. It can take liberties with time and space
that would have seemed wildly incredible a few years
ago. Just at present many Of these devices are used,
not TO serve humanity but to destroy 1t. Some day.
however, we shall have sense enough-lets hope-to
put them to more constructive uses.
