FAVORS ENGLISH AS TONGUE FOR WORLD German Wireless Experts Say Language Is Only Barrier to Movement of Ideas By Franz Lehnhoff (United Press Correspondent) Berlin, August 20. (By Mail.)— ®nglish is favored in Germany as the international lauguage that it is ad- mitted will be almost a necessity for use in world communication when wireless telegraphy and wireless tele- phony have been made thoroughly practical. . Besides difficulties of transmission of long distanee messages, most of which have now been overcome by e of high frequency stations, Graf ixrco, Germany’s wireless authority, in an interview with the United Press declared most trouble in com- Plete interchange of ideas in the fu- ture may be found in the present use of so many languages. “While I am an enthusiastic Esper- antist,” said Arco, “I believe a popu- lar vote would elect the English ton- Zue to be used generally in the trans- action of business and transmission of news, because it is now spoken by ‘the largest group of people on the globe. “Naturally, there are many na- tions that would raise objection to use of English at the world language on account of the belief that the study of it would kill their own na- tionality. Sucn fears, however, are unfounded, because in each land the mother tongue, plus English for in- ternational transactions. Apropos of the beginning of work on stations that will carry electric currents by wireless between Ger- many and Argentina, Graf Arco said: “Wireless telegraphy has reached a stage of development in which diffi- culties encountered in long distance transmssion have now wveen over- come. The greatest distance now practical is an earth quadrant or 11,- 000 kilometers. The chief difficulty hitherto encountered was with the transmitting station, but high fre- quency machines have been develop- ed, so that now this trouble no longer occurs. “As a result, the proposed connec- tion with Argentine will .e virtually perfect. Germans and Argentinians have collected practically all the ne- cessary capital, so that the erection of the overseas apparatus could al-| ready be undertaken.” Graf Arco is optimistic as to the, future of wireless telephony—and also wireless telephony—particularly if the nations will undertake a broadguage international regulation of the traffic so as to avoid trans-| mission and receiving difficulties arising from too many stations send- ing in cenflicting directions or at im-. prener times. He pointed out that about £0.000 words can be transmitted daily by a wireless station. whereas with e2- a considerable delay blac theve is from the fact that, since the war: ronnArhont reutes mnst be followed. e held thot. with wireless tele- phony. greater difficulties exict th-n with trlesranhy, birt teste made daily | at the hie N-uen station have proven that wircles: telenhone meisages can Pe picked nup from all quarters of rome.

RUMANIA TO SET CLOTHES PRICES (By United Press) Bucarest. (By Mail.)—American Red Cross officials here learn that the Roumanian government has placed an airtight embargo an all wool ex- ports. The restriction is aimed at cloth and clothing profiteers who have taken advantage of the scarcity of wool in the country to boost prices far beyond'a reasonable level. Tt is the intention of the govern- ment to control the entire wool indus- try, fixing tine price of raw materials standardizing the grades of cloth, and setting rock bottom prices on all men’s and women’s clothing. Mer- chants and tailors selling woolen commodities above the government fixed rate will be liable to prosecu- The scarcity of wool in Roumania, which is responsible for the govern- ment’s drastic action, is the result of war conditions. During the enemy occupation of the country the indus- try was crinpled by the requisition of nearly all the sheep in Roumania. Moreover, the industry was never large. The poorer classes in Rou- mania wear, as a rule, little or no woven wool clothing, preferring in the countrx districts .o dress n cured sheepskins prepared at home. The mobilization of the army cre- ated a huge demand for woolen uni- able raw wool on hand. With the disappearance of sheep from the Roumanian pasture lands the peas- ants have been deprived of the source of their primitive sheepskin gar- ments and a demand has grown up for woven wool clothes. The govern- ment hopes to reiieve tue situat.on by the embargo measure recently an- nounced.

PSS Uncovered Ancient Grave, While excavations were being made on a small conical-shaped hill near Dolphinton station, England, in prep- aration for the foundation for a monu- ment, the workmen came upon an ir- regularly shaped stone measuring about four feet four inches square and six inches thick, which was found to be covering anclent human remains in their place of sepulcher. Flagstones about four inches thick line the grave, which measures three feet nine inches by two feet by two feet. The stones are recognized as having been quarried locally.

State fair officials anticipate the biggest crowd in history on Monday —Labor Day. Governor James M. Cox of Ohio, democratic presidential can- didate will be an additional drawing card. “If there are less than 250,000 peo- ple at the fair Monday, the board will be disappointed.” Secretary Thomas Canfield said today. The opening days crowds, he said, indi- cated the attendance at the fair this year will exceed all previous records by a big margin. 7Transportation fa- cilities to and from the fair grounds will be taxed to the limit. Every ef- fort is being made, however, to pro- vide amp.e facilities to®handle the crowds. The horze show will open Monday night and will be staged every night next week.

Has gained thirteen pounds. “I will never stop praising Tanlac, for it has restored my health when everyone who knew of my dreadful condition had no idea I would ever get well. “Two years ago, following an acci- dent, I began suffering from indiges- tion and severe stomach trouble. I grew worse so rapidly that my health soon became perfectly wretched. My stomach became so weak I couldn’t| eat the simplest food or even drinkg a glass of milk without suffering for hours afterward. I was extremely nervous, and would have palpitation! of the heart so badly at times I would almost faint. My circulation was very poor, I had no color, and weighed only eighty-one pounds. It seemed 1 was just gradually starving by de- grees, and I had almest given up hope. “After the best medical treatment of surroundings was advised, so I traveled nearly all over the United States and had treatment every place I went, but always with the same dis- appointing results. How I stood my suffering is more than I can tell, and 1 became so despondent that life seemed hardly worth living. “That is just the -condition I was in when I began taking Tanlac. When my husband first suggested Tanlac 1 told him I had no faith in it, but the next day he bought me a bottle, and to my great surprise it seemed to agree with me, so I kept on taking it. The results speak for themselves. “T have gained thirteen pounds in weight, and I feel perfectly well in every way. My appetite is splendid and 1 eat just anything I want and never have the slightest symptoms of indigestion. I am so happy over the recovery of my health that I feel just like telling everybody about this won- derful medicine.” The above remarkable statement was made recently by Mrs. William P. Smith, a well known and highly respected resident of Los Angeles, Calif., residing at 139 East Av- enue 36.
