move raw materials from Ger
many's grasp was reported to be the

Until recently there have been
heavy Withdrawals from the inter-
national clearing house, but yester-
days report-the first signed by the
new American president, Thomas
McKittrick-showed an increase as
of December 30.
The change in December figures

100000 to 46,500,OO0 Swiss gold francs
(S5,554,O0O to S13,757,000).

where the allies have been fighting
with cash German attempts to

There Vas a Way,
And Lass KnetU It,!

TWO people were walking along
L road together. One was a
young woman, the other a hand
some farm lad. The farm lad
was carrying a large pail on his
back, holding a chicken in one
hand, a cane in the other, and
leading a goat. They came to a
dark lane.
Said the girl: "I'm afraid to
walk here with you. You might
try to kiss me-"
Said the farm lad: "You need
not be afraid. How could l kiss
you with all this I'm carrying?"
well, you might stick the cane
in the ground, tie the goat to it,
and put the chicken under the
pail" was the ready reply.
