A section of the press reproaches the government for its failure to adopt measures which might have the precipitate crash of the mark, charging that the government unduly stressed the reparations issue without attempting parallel action calculated to bolster the mark at home while the negotiations were proceeding. The government's policy of “secret diplomacy™ 1s blamed by some of the newspapers for the panic seizing the bourse and the "Valuta Hyenas.” Deposits on Decline. There was a literal catch-as-can wrestling match for dollars, sterling {and other foreign moneys on the ! bourse, where the fortunate owners {refused to part with their holdings. i despite the seven league boot stride with which the mark traveled.

The mark having been relegated literally to the category of “perish- able goods,” its period of usefulness now being measured by days and hours. He who saves for a rainy day now discovers he has been deceived, in that he finds his savings of a life- {time reduced to a fraction of their original value and their purchasing power annihilated,” says the National Zeitung.

The bourse organ discovers an un- canny feature in the present crisis in | the fact that the jump of the dollar i from 1,000 to 2,000 required but nine ! days, whereas the previous rise from 1500 to 1,000 was spread over three i weeks. —_————— { MAY ESCAPE GALLOWS. | Youth Who Slew Detective May Get Sentence Commuted.

He said Mrs. Trotter's charges that her husband had been {unfaithful and that he had treated her cruelly had not been substantiat- led by evidence The court also held there was no evidence to substantiate the charges of Mrs. Trotter that her husband was ho father of a child born in July, 1917, to Miss Florence Moody, secre- tary and bookkeeper at the Rescuc Mission, or that he had “conducted i himself with other women in an un- { becoming manner.” Wife Held Cruel. i The judge, in his opinion, declared he believed Mrs. Trotter was actuated i fling her suit for separate maln- tenance by the fact “that sha never has been able to persuade the defend- ant to confess that he was the father of the Moody child.” The court also asserted Mrs. Trot- ter charged her husband with acts of alleged cruelty that “at the time they were committed, if they were com- mitted, were overlooked by her and not regarded by her as of any signifi- cance.” The court, in his opinion, holds Mrs. Trotter herself was guiity of ex treme cruelty by circulating stories to the effect that her husband was the father of the Moody child. Allmony Is Awarded. As permanent alimony, Mrs. Trotter is given the Trotter home and an ad- joining house. rentals from which amount to $125 a month. She also is given the furnishings of the Trot- lter home and $5,000 in cash. The Trotter estate is valued at $85,000 or more. Mrs. Trotter filed suit for separate maintenance several months ago and her husband countered with a suit for absolute divorce. The trial, con- cluded several weeks ago after con- tinulng for more than a month, brought a denial by both Trotter and Miss Moody on the witness stand that the former was the father of Miss | Moody’s chila. _— . SWEDEN VOTES SUNDAY ON PROHIBITION ISSUE First Election Under New Refer- endum Arouses Great Popu- lar Interest. By the Associated Press. STOCKHOLM, August Swedish people next Sunday will give their decision at the polls for or against prohibition. No election in Sweden ever has caught the public mind as this. which is to be the first on a question submitted under the newly instituted referendum. The advocates of both sides of the question are displaying tremendous energy, using in their campaigns for- eign statistics and examples. The belief prevails that the cabi- net will make no move in the direc- tion of prohibition unless 65 per cent of the vote of the men is cast in favor of it. The vote of the men and women cast in the referendum will will be counted.separaiely. SILENT ON PASSION PLAY. Pope Has Made No Attack on Oberammergau Production. By the Associated Press. ROME, August 25.—Reports that Pope Plus had expressed displeasure over the manner in which the Passion Play at Oberammergau was being conducted brought forth a statement from Vatican clrcles that his holiness had had no occasion to signify his approval or disapproval of the Ba- varian production. It was stated that no report of the present performances had been made to the Holy See by Mgr. Pacelli, papal nuncio at Munich. It was recalled by Vatican circles that about a month ago a company was formed in Italy, which desired to organize here some kind of passion play similar to that at Oberammer- gau. The company notified the Holy See of its intention, submitted its plan and asked the pontiff's approval of the project. The Holy See answered that the church had never given its approval of such enterprises, adding that so far the Oberammergau production Wi conoerned the Holy See had “never disapproved it."” FOUND DEAD BY WINDOW.

By the Associated Press MOSCOW, August 1 sian leaders are advancing reasons. easily understandable within Russia, but probably difficult of comprehen- sion abroad, as to why they believe Russia, after the coming harvest, can get along and show economic im- provement without the aid of foreign governments. They make no secret that indu trially the country can show very 1 tle life without huge forelgn credits, but th. say that Russia is primarily an agricultural country and that the requirements of the Russian peasant are probably smalls than those of any other people ept the Chinese or Hindus. The peasants comprise at least 70 per cent of the countr population. Shoe Shortage Nothing.

Indifferent to Industry. It was only in late years under the monarchy that the growth of manu- facturing within Russia was serious- ly encouraged. The soviet regime, whose supporters were mostly among the factory workers in the cities, has desired to increase industry probably even more than the old regime, but, due to civil war and destruction, in- dustry is now in a worse state than ever before. If foreign capital comes in to any great extent the government expects to recreate industry, but, lacking this, it considers that Russia can get along as an agricultural country until such time as either from within_ itself or with foreign assist- ance it can become an industrial countr; As civil war is over and the harvest promises to be better than at any time since the war, the soviet leaders contend that the peasant and the city workmen now will both have more food than they have had for vears, and that the worst period is behind them. For this reason the attitude of Russian diplomats at Genoa and The Hague was firmer than the western world, accustomed to thinking of economic ruin in the sense it would affect their own countries, had be- lieved possible.

G. McLendon, 1 | i ries of the pa By the Associated Press. LONDON, August 7.—All American doctors are regarded by foreign medi- cal men as more or less expert con- cerning alcohol, as regards the conse- quence of going without it altogether, overindulgence and the various stages of inebriety betwixt and between. Therefore the assembled doctors at the meeting of the British Medical Association at Glasgow listened with great interest to what Dr. John T. MacCurdy of Cornell Medical College had to say about “alcohol in its re- lation to human economy.” Each one of us in varrying degrees, he said, has the same difficulty in meeting the world as the unfortunates-| who demonstrate their incapacity ramatically. The “normals” drugged themselves with cheap ficton, theaters and movng pictures; above all they forgot themselves in - social inter- course. “When, however, a man ig tired or oppressed_with care” Dr. MacCurdy went on, “how can he forget his ob- sessing ankieties sufficiently to be- come social? If he be normal a small amount of alcohol will give the neces- sary relaxation. Conviviality is more important for the maintenance of our mental ability and effectiveness than we realize. Innumerable people are happler and, therefore, healthier, be- cause they indulge moderately in al- cohol. “We live in an imperfect world-—im perfect largely because we have not yet gained the capacity to govern our own instincts. Alcohol is a crutch that man has discovered to help him with this disability.” —_— MILLION LOSS IN FLOOD. Homes and Farms Damaged by New York Storm. ROCHESTER, N. Y.

Yel it Is maintained that the great struc- ture, extending ffom Shanhaikuan on the sea almost to the borders of Tibet has many centuries live, although no efforts are made to preserve it. Construction of the wall was begun 200 B. C. by Emperor Chih Huang TI, a contemporary of Hannibal, who conceived this bar- rier to keep out the Tartars. At one time 700,000 criminals and prisoners of war were engaged in the work.

SHIP DELAYED TWO HOURS of Pleasure in Prospective Trip to Rio de Janeiro. Br the Associated Press. NEW YORK, August 25.—Charles Secretary of State, sailed yesterday on the Pan-Amer- jca to return the visit to Brazil which Emperor Dom Pedro made to the United States in 1876, and to visit the Brazilian centennial exposition. “I am especially honored by the opportunity at this time to returnm, on behalf of President Harding, the visit which the liberal and high- minded peror Dom Pedro pald us at the time of the centennial cele- bratien in 1876, said Mr. Hughes. “The present occasion is a most auspicious one for reviving memo- t and for expressing anew our feelings of esteem and friendship for the Brazilian peopl Brazilians at Pler.
