Paris 1o New York Paris, Jan. 21. UP—TFast forty- eight hour postal service from Faris to New York, at fifty cents a letter, looks like a solution of the trapsatiantic alr problem to the French aeronautic service. It is cal- | culated that ships now designed could operats profitably on that | basia, as a commencement. ! Twenty government air bureaus, | all over the world, it is said, are working: on loag distance aerial | service and France, like other coun- | tries, has its plans. ! An eighteen ton - airship. would carry twelve passengers New Yerk for a $2,000 fare frelght at $5.00 a pound, is the proposal of government experts. It would carry 5,000 gallons of raso- Jine and make the trip by the Azores with a stop also possible at | the Bermudas, in 45 hours. | Louis Bieriot. the first to fly | across the English channel, has fathered the idea of a giant pas senger and freight plane that would carry a motor-lifeboat that would be released automatically if the airsh(pl struck water.

The| government has dectded to cancel | all stamps of the cort. even though | thev are not official. Evidence that | in some races stamps were being | nged. three or four times led to the decision. Some persons, thinking the new anti-tubercalcsis stamps an issye of the postoftice department, used them as regular etamps In | each ecase the receiver of the letter paid the bill. that to and were Fronch Again Welcome In Their Own Stores : The French are being welcomed back into the stores where former- 1y foreigners from lands of gold meney were pampered customers. Ironica) persons are reminding the etorekeepers that many of them n vear ago said they didn't rely on French trads for their profit. “Times have changed,” says May- rica. Prax, speaking for his country- men in a newspaper article. “The foreigners are gone or they find things expensive and the Frenchman who counts his sous again gets some | attention.” Air Postal Service Now is Being Discussed. The disposition to bid for foreign- ers' trade became 30 marked that recently there was a biil before parliament to tax signs in foreign languages, as is done in Italy. This catering to foreign buyers caused many merchants to put out signs in Engiish and French and some even disregarded their own language en- tirely. Edhor Says People Prefer Good Resding Good literature, it is declared, is preferred by French newapaper | readers to the ~erdinary type of “cheap, highly &piced, factory~ made,” serfal story. Tests and investigations by Le | Petit Provencal of Marseilles, one of the influential papers of France, have satisiied that newspaper that that the rank and file of readers have better taste than was supposed. Most French newspapers run two serial stories and sometimes more, but these have rarely been taken irom the claasica, Le Petit Provencal stirred up come religious agitation recently by announcing 1t woyld run *“Andre ornelis,” one of the best novels of Paul Bourget of the Academie Fran- caise.

As a result not only are noted author’s works being published but the newspaper is get- ! ting strong response to offerings of | standard novels by Huge, Merimee, De Musset, Daudet and others, placed on sale in the office. Book- sellers likewisa have reported their sales of “literary” novels to have | been much stimulated Author's Manuscript Must Not Be Seized An author’'s unpublished manu- | &cript may not be seized under any conditions a Paris court has held. | The court bas>d its decision “on the | fact that a manuscript must be re- garded as a productien which the anuthor holds secret. and is inviolable like his thought or conscience until the moment he publishes it." The ruling arose from the attempt of a young Japanese poetess, Kidou Yamata, to seize A manuacript on | the life of the Fourteenth Century | postess Komachi completed by the | Belgian writer, Jean Nolesve, Miss | Yamata and M.

The Belglan, how- ever, completed the work and eent it to a. Paris publisher. Then Mies Yamata attempted to seize it but lost her cass and had to pay her erstwhile collaborater one franc as damages. | BERLIN —— _ Pressed Into Service ‘in Sports.

English prisoas, fully equipped, complete with gallows and con- demned cells, graveyard, warden's house and grouads, are for sale in groups.

Although the Home Office, has advertised the jails in such alldring fashion aa 'the large and substan- tially built prison, with the adjoin- ing detached villa, formerly the gov- ernor's house,” offers have been few., Twenty prisaus but, most of them Eing. One can get a gooi prison for anything from $25 to $106,000. The prison at Stornoway. in the Hebrides was sold, everythirg included, fov $25. The Newcastle prison, how- ever, brought $136,000, and the Car- lisle prison. $80,000, The County Down jail at Down- patrick went for §$100. Brecen Pris- on, in the mountains of Wales, with beautiful scenery and all the agpects of a summer resort, received a bid of $4,000, and there was no sale. Devizes prison was the first jail to be sold by public auction. A gal- lows in good working order was thrown in for good measure.

The London City Corporation hav- ing decreed that 2,000 of the pigeons which cluster before the eteps and every American tourist's Lendon program must. go, it became the duty of one Dalton, the city's rat- catcher, to trap them. He first built a wire cage meas- uring 14 by 6 feet' and provided himself with corps of “expert trap- ers.” His first day, however, was like the first bag of a hunter with a 2. The crewd that gathered was wholcheartedly on the side of the pigeons. They fed the -pigeens - so that the grain trails which led into the trap would net allure them.
