Omen Game" He says:
II was pleased to see my fin
gerprint, No. 157, published In

I'm sure I'm correct and I've
had lots Of fun watching for It."
William T. Byrnes. Washington,
is the second winner of IS. The
awards will be mailed soon.
For the information Of the hun.
dreds of G-Men Game enthusiasts
the .Fingerprint Editor today
pointed out that much over-en-
thuiasm still exists, with numer.
Gus applications in each days
mail being disqualified. 1t is
urged that participants follow the
simple rules.
Entries Disqualified
Fingerprints in today'S mail Of
fered for publication and identif1-
cation include the following dis
qualifications and reasons why
they cannot be published:
Because blue ink was used, and
will not reproduce, fingerprint
disqualifications in this group in
cluded those by j. M. HagerhorSt,
Claude A. Replagle, Clinton Eslin,
Eleanor Back, Hugh Cramer, o. z.
Geissberger and Shannon Cramer.
Fingerprints that were blurred,
Scared or were too pale to be
printed disqualified those OF
Eleanor c. Detwiler, DR.. Robert
H. Detwiler, j. B. johnson, c. E.
Osborne, Allie M. Herren, James
WasSerman, Ernest s. Cowden,
Edward T. Talley, Mrs. Frank H.
Rentfrow and Ann Whalen.
These and scores Of others dis
qualified and accumulated from
day to day may, with little prac-
tice, make better prints and are
eligible to submit their finger
prints again. 1t is suggested, in &C.
cordance with the simple rules of
"G-Men Game" that participants
avail themselves of a small BLACK
mixed pad (not blue black as
used for rubber stamps. Should
the pad produce blurred prints it
may be found to be too heavily
linked. An ordinary blotter will re-
move a sufficient quantity of the
surplus ink to enable the most in
experienced to make a good print
with the proper pressure Of the
ink upon the pad.
HERE ARE THE RULES
"G-Men Game" calls for one
clear fingerprint only, and when
published will pay its owner IS,
If he, or she, identifies it.
1. Use BLACK INK ONLY
and make q clear impression Of
your middle finger ON WHITE
paper.
2. Write your name and ad.
dress on the sheet and mail 1t
to the FingeTprint Editor, The
Washington T lines, Washing
ton, ID. c.
3. Keep a duplicate impression
of your print for future use in
identifying your fingerprint in
The Times.
4. Examine the fingerprints
reproduced daily in The Wash
ington Times carefully and COM
pare your duplicate each day
until you pick out your own.
When you identify yours, send
in your claim BY THE NUM-
BERING APPEARING with the
published print, to the Finger
print Editor. If you are correct
you receive S..
NOTE: Fingerprints bearing
scars or diSfigurements or which
are submitted in any other than
BLACK INK, will not be con-
Sidered.

REVEALED

There IS q lot OF new Snruppery
in the inner court Of the new De-
partment Of Justice Building.
There is a splashing fountain.
There are even trees to make
the prospect pleasing to what
were once described as "the hell
hounds of the law"
But can you take picture Of
all this beauty, built or planted
with public money, out Of Con-
greSsional appropriations which
the public pays in taxes?
Lots Of Red Tape
You cannot, unless you first get
a letter from some official author
ity permitting you, if you pass the
departments scrutiny, to do so on
condition
l. That you do no damage
to Government property.
2. That you obey the orders
of the guard.
3. That you take . picture Of
no person standing around with.

After that, you may take a
snapshot of the scene. # you get
that far, you will know that your
request has been passed by the
censor. The press agent has
given your desire to take q pic
ture the stamp of his official ap-
proval.
If thereafter, being newspaper
reporter or newspaper editor, you
wish to obtain an interview from

ment, you find that you first have

At the State Department con.

office.
Fear of dismissal or censure de.
tiers many officials from talking.
Afraid to Talk
A survey by The Times, in :
which this condition was revealed,
was prompted by the discovery :
that two of the highest and most
distinguished officials in the
Treasury, each with a long record
of outstanding public service, and
both men of discretion and Spe-
cialized knowledge of their respec-
tive fields, were afraid to talk
without first submitting the issue

In one case it was said the man
uscript of a newspaper story
would have to be submitted to
Mr.. CASTOR before it could be
printed. When The Times re-
fused emphatically to accept this =
condition the requirement was
waived.
In another instance, with Mr..
CASTOR out of the city, an inter. ::
view with a Treasury official was
delayed so long by the routine
of obtaining Secretary Morgen-
thau's approval that it could not
be printed the same day.
Regardless of how important or
unimportant the information
sought may be, officials are for.

BENEFIT-BRIDGE FOR
SOUP KITCHEN FUND

Mesdames w. H. Britt and l..
D. Hewes will give bridge for
the benefit of the soup kitchen
fund being sponsored by the Jun
ior Welfare club, of which Mrs.
G. C. Richardson is president. The
hostesses will award some prizes
but no money will be taken from
the small admission fund to furn-
ish refreshments but which will
be reserved intact to feed those
who need food, which is as it
should be.
In fact it would be a splendid
idea if all the organizations in
town would either serve nothing
or a cup of tea and waters at
their meetings and use the money
to help take care of those who de-
serve the utmost sympathy and
help during the winter which is
close at hand.
For reservations to the affair
which will be staged at the Hen
Jacksonville Inn at 8 o'clock tomor-
row, Friday, evening, call either
of these generous women at $40.
Those who cannot make up tables
may be arranged for at other ia
bleS. If you want to try your
luck at the Jack Pot" at the
Carolina first go to the party
whenever it suits you, just as you
make the little donation asked for.

munication is "the greatest rein
forcement of the sanctions pro-
gram yet received from any quar-
ter"
An official source gave the
United Press the following pur-
ported transcript of the German
oral communication:
Germany has undertaken to
apply during the next few days q
series of laws which either put
under control or eventually pro-
hibit expectation Of a series of
products which includes not only
war material but also other prod
ucts. The aim of these measures
is to prevent Germany being
drawn into the conflict.
purchases Of large quantities
by foreigners has been observed,
leading to belief they are destin-
ed for the belligerent countries"
German circles indicated this
version substantially is correct
and added that Germany mas no
wish to profit excessively from
the international crisis. If the
German communication is carried
out, Austria's detection becomes
less important. Italy expected to
obtain most needed materials
from Germany through Austria.
The general staff" committee
of IS adopted the Canadian pro-
posal that petroleum, coal, iron,
pig iron and steel be added to
the list of embargoed key prod
ucts as soon as cooperation OF
such non-members as the United
States and Germany is assured:
It is believed holding exports OF
these products to normal amounts
will be regarded as cooperation.

so preoccupied with the menace

helping to preserve the League OF
