u. S. HALTS BUYING SILVER
FROM MEXICO; ACT SEEN AS
REPRISAL IN OIL SEIZURES
Observers Say Mexico Is
Felt to Break Faith
With Washington

WASHINGTON, Mar. %. CUP
Secretary Of the Treasury Henry
Morgenthau, Jr., announced last
night that the United States will
defer continuation" Of its Mexi-
can silver purchase agreement
but declined to confirm or deny
reports the action resulted from
MeXicO's appropriation Of Amcri-
can oil properties.
Morgenthuu, who is vacationing
at Sea Island, Ga, issued q So
word statement through the treas
ury, confirming earlier United
Press dispatches that the agree
ment between the two countries
had been terminated or deferred.
The statement said:
an view of the decision of the
government of the United States
to reeXamine certain of its finan-
cial and commercial relationships
with Mexico, the treasury will de-
fer continuation Of the monthly
silver purchase arrangements with
Mexico until further notice"
Other treasury officials declin-
cd to discuss the action, but were
understood to feel that inasmuch
rs Mexico's appropriation move
was accompanied by monetary
steps to devaiue the peso, Mexico
has committed a moral violation
Of the silver agreement. 1t has
been in effect since January !
and has been a major factor in
maintaining the stability Of Next
co.'s currency system.
Officials pointed out that the
silver understanding was entered
into by the United States strictly
on a favor basis" and that Sec
rotary OF State Cordell Hull be-
lieved it was one of the largest
single contributions by this gov
eminent to furtherance of the ad-
ministration's good neighbor'
policy.

AMERICA AT WAR DAY-BY-DAY

20 Years Ago Today-United States
Marine Corps was authorized to in
crease it's strength from 10000 to U.s.
900.
An inventions section was organic
ed in the General Staff of the Army
at Washington to consider sugges-
tions that were pouring into the War
Department, and professors and en-
gineers were commissioned to assist
officers in the work. In the next
months it considered 4,645 ideas for
new instruments of war.
An AEF communique said French
and American troops raided German
trenches on the Mouse, found the pos
itions deserted. Author of these daily
AEF communicates, best read of all
newspaper contents during 1918, was
Major John Hughes, Princeton grad
uate from Louisville, KY, who was
attached to headquarters as Perish
ing's "ghost-writer" CHughes is now
broker in New York;
Long range Smelling of Paris was
resumed (also Gin Wall St." now is
Stanley Prenosil, who scooped all 9th
er American correspondents by full
day with the first story definitely
stating that the shells falling in Paris
were from a German big Bertha
located more than so miles away
When his first story was published
War Department experts in Washing
ton denied it was possible, rival cor
respondents declared his dispatch was
untrue and he had a tough time con-
vincing his own press association he
was right until French War Ministry
provided belated confirmation.)

u. S. PARKING BILL
RUNS TO 100000, 1000

Charlotte, April 1S-Declaring that
lack Of adequate parking Families IS
one of the major problems facing
American cities, Coleman w. Roberts,
president of the Carolina Motor club,
said today that the annual bill now
paid by motorists for place to leave
their cars is nearly S1OOOOO,OOO.
"All which money" Mr.. Roberts
pointed out, "is paid for what might
be termed parking is, park
ing when shopping or at work, or
away from home for any reason, and
does not cover whatever amounts are
spent on private garage rental. The
major portion of this total goes to
the parking garages which annually
take in some $7O,OOO.OOO while the
parking lots get an estimated $40 O0O,-
600 to $25O00000. Between $4,000 900
and $5,000,OC0 gees down the NAV of
the parking meters which have gain
ed foothold in a handful of cities"

ONCE UPON APRIL 10th


There is no literary work in the
world quite like the Appleton Cyclic
pedia of American Biography, now,
unhappily, long out of print.
Nestled among the pages of its six
volumes, amidst Adamses, JacksOns,
Roosevelts, and all the other great of
the nation generally recognized up to
the turn of the Century, are the bio
graphies, complete to the last con-
vincing detail, of an impressive gal
lery of notables who never existed!
The editors entrusted various peda-
gogues specializing in a particular
subject with the responsibility of
writing the biographies of all the
notable American practitioners of
their particular art, science or pub
lie activity, and agreed to pay so
much per biography. Several of the
contributors, made greedy by their
returns from the piecework, proceed
ed to invent fictitious scientists. It
was years before their deception was
exposed. In the meantime, the ency-
clopedists had appropriated for their
own pages some Of these nevernever
people, and to this day they crop up
in reference books and school texts
around the world.
1t is appropriate that this encyclo-
pedeia should have among it's bio
graphies of men who did exist, that
of the Rev. Samuel Peters, who was
born 203 years ago in Hebron, Conn.
For vindictive Parson Peters, who
had been expelled from the colony,
fabricated a whole code of laws in
his General History of Connecticut"
Among them were mo one shall
make minced pies, dance, play cards,
or play any instrument of music, ex-
cept the drum, trumpet and Jews

harp" and mo one shall cross river
on Sunday except an authorized
clergyman"
The laws, which he attributed to
the province to make it ridiculous,
were accepted as fact. The wide cir
culation of Peters book and quota
lions from it, did much to establish
an association in the popular mind
between early New Englanders and
puritannical blue Laws"
The New Englanders never had
any laws more ridiculous than some
of those existent today in the statute
books of the Nation, the States and
lesser governmental units. If you
don't believe it, just skim through the
pages of Dick Hyman's amusing rec
ord of democracy rampant, cts the
