able, has been stolen. The
theft of the tag was reported
to the office of Tax Collector

car of the vintage of 1925.
The owner resides at 1901
Duval street.
Sometime ago, MIR. Naranjo
went on a picnic on the keys
and with a party went fishing.
He left his car, as has been
done on hundreds of other oc-
casions, in what he consider
ed a secluded place, safe from
prying eyes and restless
hands.
After being away on the
picnic he returned to start on
the homeward trip. When he
saw the car everything ap-
peared to be all right except
that the license plate was
missing.

herself closer to America than
other European countries, con-

Wide discussion of certain of
Sweden's institutional achieve
ments as being worthy of consid-
Grafton in America, such as the
Brat system of liquor control, the
Swedish program of managed cur

moreover, to foster a feeling that
this country has much in common
with the United States.

Wild Scenes Enacted In
Capital City As Troopers
Charge Huge Crowds On
Scene
tBy Associated Press,

PARIS, Feb. France
ousted one government and
called for another today, but
bowling mobs which forced
Premier Daladier to resign
today continued their riot
ing.
Daladier resigned even as
crowds stoned mounted
guards stationed in Place de
la Concorde where yester-
day rioters were shot by POI
lice and military machine
guns.
The government placed
the official death toll at six
citizens, but unofficial esti-
mates said as many as so
persons were killed.
Shortly after Daladier and his
cabinet resigned, President Le-
brun offered the premiership to
Senator Louis Barthou, who serv-
ed France as premier from 1910
to 1919.
The announcement that Dalai
der was out did nothing to tenn
per the angry mood Of the crowds
which gathered at two points
which were the hot spots of yes
terday's mad battles.
Mounted guards, with their
horses whirling and stamping at
their work, pushed their way into
the great square where yesterday
machine gun bullets shined.
The horsemen formed a hollow
4uare attempting to beat back
the crowd and dispense it from
the gathering place.
The crowd gave like water hit
by a rock and flowed back just as
relentlessiy.
Police. wearing glistening steel
helmets, combined into small
groups and fought their way in
short rushes into assembling mobs.
They made even less impression
than the mounted men. Then,
enraged by persistent tactics of
guardians Of order, individuals in
the mob picked up paving blocks
and loose stones and started
throwing them. Estimates of
yesterdays wounded ran as high
as 1000.
The premiership was offered
later to CASTOR Doumergue, for
mer president, who first refused,
and then agreed to try TO form a
new government.

istration and the socialist press is
openly pleased and admiring.
Some at least of the misunder-
standing which exists regarding
Americans is due to the absence
of high-pressure publicity methods
in Sweden, with the result that
news of Americans competing in
pancake-eating contests and the
like is too often received and ac-
cepted at face value. American
motion pictures, likewise, not in
frequently are taken seriously as
being cross-section of actual life
in America.
Proud OF Lindbergh
One of Sweden's chief sources
of pride, on the other hand, is the
list of Americans with Swedish
blood, such as Colonel Charles
Lindbergh, who have won interna-
tional fame.
In addition to Colonel Lind
bergh, Americans of unusual pop
ularity in Sweden include a long
list of motion picture stars, es-
pecially such comedy artists as
Laurel and Hardy. A number of
American writer's are widely popu-
lar. President Roosevelt is, on the
whole, held in high esteem.

NEWF.H. SET-UP
|. BACKS INSURANCE
Nation Divided Into II Re-
qions to Handle Mort.
gage Deals.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A new set-up all its own, to handle
insurance of mortgages on new
houses, was announced yesterday by
the Housing Administration.
The r. H. A. had paralleled the
National Emergency Council and used
some Of its men, but today it an
nounced the division Of the country
into IL regions and the appointment
Of II regional and 48 State directors.
Deputy Administrator j. Howard
Ardrey is in charge Of the work and
selected the directors.
The first step, 1t was stated, will be
the listing Of lending institutions
which will be able to make insured
loans. These may be banks, loan
companies and other financial cor
porations, but must be approved by
the administration before they will
have any assurance Of being able to
get insurance.
The modernization and repair sec
ton of the housing act has been in
operation approximately 80 days.
During that period 36,09S loans to-
falling $15,300, 900 have been reported
by banks for insurance. These are
known as character loans and do not
involve mortgages.
The mortgage insurance plan Just
getting under way Is long grange
housing plan which the administra-
ton hopes will result in billions of
dollars of new housing being con-
structed during the next i've years.
Loans up to 80 per cent Of the ap-
praised value of property, but not
exceeding $4,000, will be insured for
premiums ranging from o5 per cent
to l per cent. These loans must be
made at not over 5 per cent interest.
The regional director for the
fifth region district-South Carolina,
North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland
and the District Of Columbia-will be
named later. His ONCE will be at
Richmond, Va.
