NEW YORK (N.AN.A)—The Coney Island Mardi Gras, which is usually something of a washout unless cne likes to be shoved around in a mob scene, did fairly well this yeir. and the harassed cops of the Coney Island po! conservatively placed the attendance at 2,500,000, meaning that there were prebably’ 1,000.000 anyway. What's & million, more or less in Coney Island? Some years ago, Coney had a rainy season, and a newspaper, now defunct offered to put the good old place back on the map. It ran a popularity con- test to_elec Coney Islarnd, and it was undoubtedly a free-for-all. Things went nicely until some ycung | bloods at & university club in New Yo decided that an old cclleg | already a stald snd conservaiive resi- dent of Spuyten Duyvil, should be King of Coney Island. Sending out all conscriptable club empl-yes to Times Square, they bought every that contained the “popularity coupon” | and an avalanche of votes came into the i office next day, putting th> club’s can- | didate into second place. talk about it cver pipes and | (Copyrignt. 1931 Newspaper Alliance, Inc.) |NAUGHTY PARIS BOOKS BLAMED ON FOREIGNERS List Indlcntei folhh‘ en Volumes Are Carried for Benefit of Visiting Buyers. PARIS (Special). — Every traveler knows that there are in Paris shops which specialize in the sale of forbid- den books. Frenchmen always insist | that this specialty is for the benefit of | foreign visitors, and this contention | seems to be supported by a list of vol- umes banned by the courts which has been prepared by Maurice Garcon, a leading _Parisian_ lav This list | shows “that out of a toal of some 450 | volumes one-fifth are in English. It is noteworthy that many such | books in French are printed in Eng- land, while most of those in Engiish ave {printed in France. Works printed in San Francisco and New York figure in the list. which mentions also_Venice, Amsterdam, Montreal, Quebec, Brussels, Smyrna, Cologne, Lucerne, Lisbon, Hamburg, Constantinople, Sofia, Viadi- vestok and Glasgow. M, Garcon has compiled his Jist for i legal purposes, Under French law the publishers or sellers of indecent books are tried in the Assize Court before a jury. Once a conviction has been re- corded any copies still offered for sale lead to Police Court proceedings, which is & much more rapid and less cum- breus jurisd:ction, thus facilitating the | work of the pol | But the records of the Assize Courts { are not communicat>d to the police au- thorities, so that it is difficult for them to know what books have been con- demned. To remedy this, M. Garcon enlisted the assistance of court clerks for the preparation of his list. FOUR CHILDREN FOUND ADRIFT IN SMALL BOAT | Fishermen Rescue Party 30 Miles From Shore Without Oars, Water or Food. { |, SOFIA (Special).—In the little har- bor of Sozopol, on the Black Sea, fish- ermen observed at sea about 30 miles from shore a small boat without oars. They set out for it and were much sur- prised to find therein four children be- tween 10 and 16, hungry and thirsty, the youngest lying in & swoon. The children thanked the fishermen, but the latter could not understand, for the children spoke Rumanian. In the harbor an interpreter was found and the children told their story. They were playing three days before in the Rumanian harbor of Constantza, when they observed a boat. They de- cided to take advantage of the absence of the owner to make a little trip through the harbor. Because there were no oars they rowed with their hands. The boat was caught by a current, and when the boys realized the danger they were already far from shore. The boet drifted south at a distance of 40 During the voy- age they sighted no steamship. Two days and two nights they were at the mercy of the waves, and it was only on the morning of the third day that the | current bore them to Sozopol. 11,000 WIVES FORSAKEN Mkany S FindbsTasbands I avenWed i Others in America.
