BADEN-BADEN GROWING INTO AMERICAN RESORT 85 Per Cent of Frequenters of Fa- mous Springs Are Foreigners. ~Three-Fourths From U, S. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, August 1.—Germany's most beautiful and fashionable heaith resort, Baden-Baden, in the Black Forest, has become a_veritable Amer- ican colony. Lord Mayor Reinhard Fiesser says that 95 per cent of the frequenters of the resort's medicinal baths and drinkers of its health-re- storing waters are forelgners, of \whom at least 76 per cent are Amer- icans. - Hotels, shops and private homes and automobiles display more Amer- ican flags than German. On the streets “American” is heard quite as much as the native language. Ac- cording to Dr. Hans Waag, manager of Baden-Baden's theaters, Amer- icans patronize the productions lib- erally, even though the plays and operas are in German, as they are anxious to increase their knowledge and understanding of the German language. From August 14 to 30 there is to be a series of Mozart per- formances directed by Joseph Stran- sky of New York. Baden-Baden ac- commodates 80,000 guests per year. ‘Woman Freed in Death.

Brown today held that the national prohibition act does not impose a positive duty on State officers to en- force the Federal liguor law. The vessel, owned by the two Dodge brothers, was seized by the Providence police on the pight of April 18. The defendants opposed the con- demnation of the boat on the gréund that the police had unloaded the liquor before turning the boat over to Fed- eral prohibition officers. They con- tended that police officers could not enforce the Federal prohibition act, hecause such authority was not grant- ed_to them by the act.
