ONAC'S PEOPLE MAY HAVE 70 WORK Inbabitants Gomplain (Casino Ruthorities Run Gountry Paris, Dec. 19 (UP)—The har- rowing possibility that the good peo- ple of Monaco might have to work and even pay taxes has brought on & crisis in the little principality on the Mediterranean. Crises are as rare as paupers in Monaco, where the world's pleasure seekers come to drop their gold into the Monte Carlo Casino. The rake- off from the Casino constitutes the budget and everyone is happy. Grumbling Heard That is, happy until recently, when grumbling began to be heard. The people complained that not enough money was spent for the public good. The Casino authorities, they said, were actually running the country in the absence of Prince Louis, the ruler, and not running it right. They demanded that Prince Louis do something about it. Prince Louis is at Chateau Mar- chais, in Northern France, where he spends much of his time. His angered subjects made pointed re- ! marks about “a man without a country.” Prince Louis attempted to soothe the populace by messages of encour- agement but they continued to ob- ject. The national council, nominal governing body of the principality under authority of the prince, signed. Telling Thrust Then Prince Louis made a telling thrust. He warned the people that all this dissension would do no good towards attracting visitors and dol- lars to the Casino this winter. The prince sent the following manifesto: “As a result of events of recent weeks, exaggerated mnews of which has reached foreign capitols, un- fortunate effects will certainly be felt during the winter season, the success of which i3 essential to the economic life of the principality. The prince, realizing his responsibil- jties and duties, wishes to warn the | inhabitants of Monaco that they will prejudice their own interests it they continue the manifestations.” The proclamation failed of the desired effect and today Prince Pierre De Polignac, son-in-law and heir of Prince Louis, was in Monaco trying to smooth things out. Efforts Clouded His efforts were clouded by a sug- gestion of some of the inhabitants that he was attempting’a coup in favor of himself. Prince Pierre summoned the mem bers of the Communal Council, re- presenting the towns of the prinel- pality, and told them they were the only representatives of the people since the resignation of the National Council. Pierre told the delegates that Prince Louis would approve | any solution recommended by the Communal Councll with Plerre's assent. i Pierre conferred with other lead- ing Monacans, explaining that he | J.

Monaco is the smallest indepen- dent state of Europe. about eight square miles and population about 23,000. the southern coast of France, sur- rounded on all sides except the sea by French territory. ‘The casino authorities have the bambling concession until 1947. The present annual grant to the state for the concession is 90,000 pounds | (about $450,000) which will be in- | creased to 100,000 'pounds annually in 1937. Pay No Taxes The people of Monaco are not per- mitted access to the gambling tables, 80 they keep all they get. They pay no taxes and receive high rentals for the land. Visitors spend much Opportunity knocks more than once at everyone’s door | 'No age limit on success if you keep fit pEDPLE usé to think that if you passed up one chance to make good, you'd never have another. That if you hadn’t made your mark by the time you were 40, you mever would. ““That's all buak,” psople say today. There’s many 2 man who'll tell you he was past SO when he made his firse big success. Their expericace runs something like this. “I'd been going through life, always just missing out on everything. Worked like 2 dog, too. But never scemed to get anywhere. “It was a doctor who put me wise to mysclf. Told me not to blame it on luck. That the trouble was with me ~tight inside mysclf. *He recommended Nujol. I took it for three months. Never missed a day. And, say, I began to fecl like 2 younger brother myself. Decided there was life in the old dog yet. Still time to make good. When my big chance came, I was all ready, waiting to grab it.” Nujol keeps your body fanctioning just as Naturc meant it to, under all conditions. It's a pure substance that works normally and naturally. It not only keeps an excess of body poisons from forming (we all have them) but aids in their removal.
