INNSBRUCK, Austria, Sept. 13
NI.N.SO.-The grim battle for the
leadership of Austria between En-
gelbert Dollfuss, Of Vienna, and
Adolf Hitler, of Berlin, has been
fought on the battlefields Of diplo'
macy, but the victims of the con-
flict are strewn all over the Tyro-
lean Alps, the section which has
been hit hardest by this bloodless
but bitter imbroglio.
When the Nationalist Socialist
party began to mushroom itself
above the other parties in Austria
Dollfuss became worried and, with
the help of his $4,000 auxiliary po-
lice, set out to suppress this off
shoot of German Nazidom. Hit
Ter was not long in taking retal1a-
tory measures.
High Visa Fee
His first was the enforcement
of q 1,OOO-mark $4,000 visa fee on
oil Germans crossing the border
into Austria.
The Tyrol was once the play
ground of wealthy Americans,
but that was years ago in the
pre-craSh days. In late years
nearly all the tourist trade in
the Austrian Tyrol has been Ger
man trade. Each summer thou
sans of Germans crossed the
border at Scharnitz, paid a few
marks visa fee, and then headed
for Innsbruck, which, cut by the
silver thread of the river Inn and
surrounded entirely by snow
capped mountains, made an ideal
summer and winter playground.
Others went further into Austria
to such places as SchWaz, Brlx-
legg or UdernS.
Villages Deserted
Today these are deserted viii
lagos with doleful hotel managers
looking ruefully at empty rooms;
with sad-eyed and puzzled peas
ants tending their livestock, till.
ing their soil, knowing full well
that there will be no market for
their produce.
The stringent laws Dollfuss
passed in hope of suppressing
the Nazi party in Austria have
not stamped out Nazi sentiment
in the Tyrol. Forbidden to wear
Nazi emblems, forbidden under
threat of a long jail sentence to
give the Nazi salute, the peasants,
guides and hotel people of the
region nevertheless are still Hitler
followers.
Vienna seems so far away from
Innsbruck and other Tyrol towns.
The mountains rise sharply, cut
ting off the outside world and
forming barrier between Vienna
and the Tyrol greater than the
mere physical barrier of towering
heights. Germany seems so close
only 20 miles away through a
gap in the mountains.

Quicker Relief Now
from Pain

The pictures above tell, in sim
pie way, the reason GENUINE
BAYER ASPIRIN is rated the
Fastest, Safe Relief known for
pain.
Note that a Bayer Aspirin
Tablet starts to disintegrate
within two seconds after touch
ing moisture-in your stomach
just as it does in the glass above.
Hence, a Bayer Aspirin Tablet
starts to take hold" of even a
severe headache or neuritis a
few minutes after taking.
Keep this in mind when in
pain: BAYER brings the quick
relief you want. And the CAFE
relief, too. For Genuine Bayer
Aspirin does not harm the heart.
So-always say "Bayer Aspir-
in" when you buy. Then YOU'LL be
sure to get the Quick relief and

Wool ChpHeavy

COR the fifth successive year indications are
that there will be a tremendous clip of
wool all over the world While the clip Of
past few years has been tremendous, that con-
sumption also has been great with the result
that no harmful surplus has been created,
Japan in particular, has been heavy con-
sumner of wool.
Exclusive of China and Russia the world
output was 5000, 900 600 each for the past five
years.
Indications now are that there will be q
steady decline in the number of sheep, the
trend having turned downward in 1881, but up
until the present the decrease was slight.

Cotton Stocks Gut

THE Federal Farm Board is about rid Of the
huge stock Of cotton purchased by the Cot
ton Sterilization Corporation.
There are less than 10000 bales left in stor.
age at foreign ports and this has been offered
for sale to the highest bidder. The largest
amount is at Shanghai where 10000 bales are
now held.
Since storage and carrying charges have been
constantly aecruing on this foreign consignment
cotton ever since it was shipped abroad last
year. Mr.. Morgenthau and his associates in
the Farm Board thought it wise to dispose Of
it, so that the affairs of the Cotton Stabiliza-
ton Corporation may be completely hquidated.
All other remaining stocks Of the cotton Of the
corporation are in process of delivery to the
Red Cross for relief purposes as directed by
Congress The cotton on foreign consignment
was not available for that purpose.
The only other cotton to which the Farm
Board has q claim T. that pledged as collateral
in the 1S30-31 season by the American Cotton
Cooperative Association and the Staple Cotton
Cooperative Association. There are 1,557 900
bales Of this cotton, upon which the Farm
Board made loans to permit advances to grow
ers of 80 per cent Of the market value at the
time the advances were made in the case Of
the American Cotton Cooperative Association
cotton, and 30 per cent in the case of the Staple
Association cotton.

saloon, however. Now he may escape physically
on the rubber tires of his waiting car; or he
may enter the world of fancy by gazing at the
silver screen in the theater, and thus escape
mentally.
Lately another diversion has been opened to
the world. Radio entertainment as something
to take up our time is of such recent develop
ment that we have no figures at all regarding
its spread before 1890 In January 1882, the
Columbia Broadcasting system estimated that
country.
Here Is an escape from loneliness in extent
to stagger the imagination. What can father
hear among his cronies in a saloon to compare
with the political speeches coming through the
loud speaker? He is there with his radio set,
wherever it pleases his fancy.
nOES 1t not seem logical that the beer or
- ale will probably be consumed in the home
today, more as a side issue, while mother dad
and the children listen to something the
radio? For II there are friends with whom one
really wishes to gather, these may SO readily
step into the home and listen with you, per-
haps to talk 1t all over later.
Senator Norris believes that the cultural value
of the radio programs also is important
when symphony orchestras and the golden
voices of grand opera stars can flood the sim
plest home with melodies, it seems to me that
you nave an mnuence there which tends to
prevent sordid excesses Of the kind we knew
before prohibition" he says
When prohibition Is repealed" says Senator
Tydings, Il rather expect to see some little un-
due exuberance at first. Then I think all that
will wear of, and people will accept the situa-
ton In matter -of-fact attitude Of mind Tenn
perance can and should be made fashionable
We have gone through several stages of evo-
luton since 1918-1920. For example we must
not overlook the changes in woman's locale
She is everywhere now. Sale of liquor must be
done in ways and in places which will not
offend her.
The man who once played poker nightly
with the boys in the saloon probably devotes
only one evening in two weeks to that game
now. Quite likely much of his time is taken
up in playing bridge with his wife, and she
may be better hand at contract than he is.
''If there is drinking in connection with con-
tract bridge. it has to be held down to such
extent that one still thinks keenly and clearly
Bridge crimes, such as revoking, trumping part
ner's ace and failing to return partners lead,
are too serious.

DUT what will people talk about when they
= no longer have prohibition to occupy their
minds?
Perhaps they'll take more of an interest in
politics, suggests one statesman. There's always
the younger generation to worry about, puts
in another.
Senator David Reed of Pennsylvania believes,
however that much work in teaching of tenn
perance remains for churches, the w. C. T. U.
and other organizations.
Passage of the eighteenth amendment and
the Volstead act just about wrecked all the
good work done for true temperance and self
control before 1918," he declares.
In the century preceding that date, tre-
mendous strides had been made. Most thought-
full persons now hope that the teaching of tenn
perance may be resumed, and that self-control
may become popular. We no longer counte-
nance gluttony with food.
Our liquor control problems are no greater
than those of every Anglo-Saxon country in
Northern Europe.

owned privately today as were on the books
in pre-prohibition days.
Following the trend of the easily-owned auto
mobile has come travel for great numbers
of Americans on a hitherto unknown scale. 1t
seems incredible, but Profs. Wiley and Rice
assure us it is true, that the tourist camp was
absolutely unknown in 1918.
The way people get about from place to place
now, the casual manner In which they visit
new States, cities, the national forests, the ma
honal parks in the West and South. the beaches
and the Fairgrounds everywhere-an that is
comparatively new.
Henry Ford has often pointed out that gaso-
line in the tank plus alcohol In the driver Is
menacing combination. This is pretty well
understood today Laws against driving while
under the influence Of alcohol are rather rigidly
enforced
NNLY the most irresponsible of nitwits runs
the risk Of the resulting lawsuits
which may follow If he tries to be at one and
the same time q drinker and an automobile
operator
So there we are again. The men and women
who own automobiles want to drive them They
are fully as interested In pursuing their pleas
ure In this fashion as they are in drinking alco-
holic liquors, not more SO. At any rate,
the ownership of q car Is seen as q steadying
influence for temperance.
Moving pitcures today are attended by per-
sons in all walks Of life. Today there are more
than twice as many movie theaters as there
were In 1910, and records show that an aver
age person gives at least two or three hours
per week to this pleasure.
Il believe the competition of the movies offers
something very real to this business Of unbridled
drinking" says Senator Tydings. II am told
that editors of movie magazines receive thou
sands Of letters weekly from readers who ask
for explanations and details regarding the way
the stars perform in the pictures.
These fans also want to know the history
of dramas in which actors have appeared and
what is planned for the future There is tre-
mendous interest on the part of old and young
alike in everything going in the movie
world"
The world of imagination opened through the
realm of moving pictures offers one of the
most potent forms of escape from the SINE
ness of ones own life.

LONDON, O., Aug. 30. j. Rising scrap metal prices have spelled "end of the line" for the last ves- tiges of a midwestern railroad en- pire visioned more than half cen tury ago by promoters who sought to build a line between Cincinnati and Columbus.
 Railroad crews are wrecking and tearing up the rusty rails of the famed "grasshopper" division of the Detroit, Toledo and Ironton Rail- way
 The "grasshopper' line. so dubbed by inhabitants along the route be- cause of its infrequent trains S stretched 21 miles between Port William and Jeffersonville, O., a junction with the D. T. & I. for merly owned by Henry Ford.
 The division was abandoned last year. It had been the only section completed by the old Miami Valley and Columbia Railway Company which started the venture back in l877.
 Only part now left of the enter prise is a mile spur between Sedalia, O., and Jeffersonville, over which thousands of tons of farm products, coal, road materials and livestock continue to be moved.
