New York, Oct. 3.—Belief that the crime wave is passing so far as the country’s banks are concerned, was expressed in the report of the protec- tive egencies of the American bank- ers associgtion, submitted in conven- tion here today. Increased activity and co-operation on the part of pub- lic officers and the courts in bringing about prompt trials and proper penal- ties for those charged with crimes against the banks were responsihle for the better conditions, the report asserted. There were 406 burglaries or tempted burglaries of member and non-member banks reported in the yeriod between September 1, 1921 and August 31, 1922, in 36 states. No Er———————— at- r | i 1 reports of burglaries or attempted burglaries were reported in that period from Connecticut and a few other states Total losses from bur- glaries reported by the banks were given in the report at $249,302. Losses from holdups reported by 145 member and non-membeér banks totalled $905,661 during the period. No holdups were reported from Con- necticut, and several other states, JAILED FOR REFUSAL ‘Woman eDtermined Not to Sign Pa- pers On Property.

HOPE FOR ACTION BY U 5. PRESIDENT Merchants of St. Thomas Appre- hensive Over Restrictions Charlotte Amalia, St. Thomas, V. 1. Oct. 3.—8t. Thomas merchants, whose prosperity depends chiefly on the amount of shipping that comes into the harbor, are hopeful that President Harding takes prompt and favorable action on the memorandum recently handed him by a commission from St. Thomas urging that the Vol- stead act be not enforced in the Vir- gin Islands, that the coastwise ship- ping law be suspended, and that the quarantine regulations be abated. Ship figures compiled from the cus- tom house records show that for the year ended June 30, 1922, 2,156 ves- sels of all types entered this port, as compared with 2,652 for the previous year, For the 12 months ended June 30, 1920, 2,245 ships came into port. It is pointed out here that the year ended June 30, 1921 was abnor- mal, and that there has, in fact, been only a slight decline on the actual number of vessels entering port over the fiscal year 1920. But 1t appears that the port is not suffering so much from the decline in the number of jvessels coming here, as from the {fact that fewer of these vessels take lon coal or other supplies. ! The United States shipping board built three large oll tanks here with a capacity of 165,000 barrels to sup- ply fuel ofl to Shipping board vessels They were filled last January, and since then the total withdrawais have been only about 40,000 barrels, So far this year, it is said, ships coming into port to take on coal have averaged less than one a week, and the coaling of vessels is che chief source of fncome for many men and women who earn from three to five cents for each basket of eoal carried aboard. For the first three menths this year the importations of coal were 2,165 tons as compared ~with importations of approximately 5,000 tons for a like period last year. There has been more cargo left in port this year for transhipment to other ports than in several y2ars, iut despite this fact, the amount of em- ployment furnished has been inade- quate. ¢ The island lives on the ships which come into the port of Charlotte Am- alia, and restrictions on shipping which were not known in Davuish days are causing uneasiness among the LAWSON IS MISSING come of Once Famous Boston Financier. Boston, Oct. 3—Thomas W. Law- son, financier, whose fortunes have suffered the latest fall of a fluctuating career, was missing today. Those as- sociated with him suggested that the decisfon to sell his Dream Wold esfate to satisfy his debts had hit him rather hard and, thought he had decided to seek solitude for a short time. His health had not been of the best recently. Horace C. Fogg, one of his trustees, said he thought Mr. Lawson was not {ll and suggested he might have decided to go to Oregon, where his daughter, Mrs. Henry McCall, lives on a ranch. Mr. Lawson went several weeks ago to Southwest Harbor, Me,, to stay with his sister, Miss Mary Lawson. Yesterday he left the Maine town, saying he was not certain where he would go. ® 98 ElectrTcafiermits Issued in Month of Sept.

The models were furnished to Captain Waldo Evans, commandant of the district, by the bureau of con- structfon and repair. The models cover the development of the American navy from the revo- lution to the present, with replicas of some of the most famous craft that ever have flown the American flag. Old Ships There Too. The frigate Bon Homme Richard, outfitted in France by Jones, won un- dying fame, Sept. 28, 1779, when she attacked the Serapls, a British frigate of 44 guns, which, with the Countess of Scarborough, was conveying 40 British merchantmen home from the Baltic. In a desperate battle in which the Bon Homme Richard was so bad- ly riddled she sank a few hours la- ter, Jones lashed his ship to the Se- rapls and fought until the British captain struck his flag. The battle ended with the Bon Homme Richard on fire in two places, all her lower deck guns dismounted, two of her * HEN I can produce a perfect co- coa, I'll make it’’ said Sir Thomas J. Lipton.

MUDANIA STRANGE PLAGE FOR MEETING Quaint Little Village Very Unim- pressive Place Mudania, Oct. 3. (By Associated Press)—Never was there a stranger setting for a conference of world powers than this little village on the southern shore of the Sea of Ma- mora Even the presence of the great warships of England, France and Ttaly seemed incongruous in the tiny cove belted with rocks and mud which is Mudania's harbor, for their only neighbors were a few scattered fishing boats and nondescript barges. A few hundred yards from the point selected for the anchorage of the great Iron Duke lay the gaunt skeletons, half submerged, of two Turkish transports sunk by British submarines during the world war. Nothing about Mudania is impres- save for the bulk of snow cap- ped Mount Olympus rising majesti- cally in the distance. The town is squalid and depressing. There is not a single building of architectural pretensions; the houses are of mud, shaped like huge beetles and the stores thrust ‘heir latticed-windows into the narrow, crooked streets. Not a Modern City. There is no sound of railway or motor truck to disturb. There is no evidence of modern life save two tele- phone wires which run into the offices of the police chief and the mayor. There {s no restaurant, no postoftice, no busy markets, no evidence of the modern world of business except the unpretentious office of the Standard 0il Co The town has been of portance, ‘either to business or tics since the days, long since wh it was the port of entry for Brusa in the period when that city was the capital of the Turkish em- pire Once, however, about a year ago, it flashed into prominence when the now leposed King made his triumphal entry Minor in the vain dream was to be the beginning of sive, little im- poli- Asia this re into that the \establishment of the Greek empire Secrecy Ensured.
