Leland Caldwell, employee in Fin

The mesh of forgeries was first
discovered when officials found that

even the signers of the bonds were
unable to differentiate between the
original and the spurious.

Boyd revealed he had allowed Fin

FOREIGN CRY
FOR STABILIzING
DOLLAR FAILS
Roosevelt Hasn't Changed
Mind on Problem Since
End of London Farley.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIAIMS
scripps-Howard Foreign Editor

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-Rumors
OF impending dollar sterilization
were nailed today by announcement
that the President has not changed
his mind one iota since he rebuffed
the foreign powers clamoring for it
at London.
The mysterious goings and COM
ings Of Montagu Norman. governor
Of the Bank Of England. bur now
In the United States: Treasury Sec
rotary William Woodin, Senator Will
liam @. McAdoo. federal reserve
bank officials and others, had led
TO the belief that sterilization was
again under discussion.
Gold Countries Uneasy
France. Holland and other gold
countries are known TO be uneasy
lest they. too be forced off the gold
standard.
Though President Roosevelt has
let fall no hint of what his plans
are with regard 10 the dollar. ne
has let 10 be known-and not with
out some degree Of emphasis-that
his views have not changed since
the London parley.
At that time he bluntly cabled
the conference that he had not the
slightest intention of following "the
fetishes Of so-called international
bankers" and warned foreigners
that so far as the United States is
concerned 1t seeks the kind Of dol
lar which a generation hence will
have the same purchasing and
debt-paying power as the dollar we
hope to attain in the near future"
Dollar High Again
AT that time it was indicated that
the President wanted a dollar worth
what it was around 1886. that
is to say, about 65 cents. At this
particular moment it seems to be
headed in the opposite direction.
Measured in gold. the dollar is up
again to where it is worth rs cents
"a depreciation Of only Is per
cent.
Great Britain, France and the
rest of Europe are waiting with
anxiety to see what the Presidents
next move will be- Another war

Chemists Discover New Way to Remove Stale
Precipitation Curds. e. Real Cause of Body
Odor by Deep-Pore Cleansing

WEARS ago people rarely took
i baths in water. Instead, they
bathed in perfume-believing with
the Romans that the way TO cor
rect offensive body odor was TO
smother il with another odor even
more powerful!
Now happily the cause of body
odor-Stale Perspiration Curds-
has been discovered. And research
chemists have developed a quick,
odorIess way to end it instantly.
Stale perspiration contains calcium,
salt and particles of fat. The thick

NEWSPAPER FIRES
PROBED BY POLICE
BIazes in News and Times
Herald Buildings Are Be-
lieved Incendiary.

Small fires in the Easements of two
Washington newspaper buildings early
today breaking out at about the same
time and under somewhat similar cir
cumstances, led police to suspect in
cendiarism.
The first blaze was in the Washing
ton Daily News Building, and the
other followed about half an hour later
in the Washington Times Herald Build
ing. only a short distance away.
According to Detective Sergt. Joseph
Waldron. who, with Detective Sergt.
j. E. Kenney, is investigating both fires.
the Times Herald blaze apparently was
deliberately set off. Because of the
similarity of the News fire. Waldron
believes it. too, was the work of an
incendiary.
The Times Herald blaze broke out in
a neWsprint storage room adjoining
the press room. There was every in
dication, Waldron said. that some one
had jammed wad of waste paper into
the center Of one of the newsprint rolls
and put match to it.
Employees discovered the fire almost
before it got started. however. and it
was extinguished without the aid of
flremen. The blaze broke out about
4.40 am
An errand boy discovered the News
blaze and summoned flremen. who
quickly extinguished it. The fire broke
out in a waste paper room, adjoining
the press room. Damage was slight
