Hickman's guard immediately was doubled by Chief jailer Frank Dewar. o — Higher Shoe Prices Follow Advance In Hides And Leather Boston, Mass., Jan. 7.—Higher shoe pi ices as a result of rising prices of hides and leather were predicted by the New England Shoe and Leather association in a statement tonight asserting that prices of leather used in the manufacture of shoes have increased approximately 35 per cent in the last twelve months. The statement added: “Just how long this situation will continue it is impossible to predict, but in the face of these largely augmented prices manufacturers will find it necessary to get an advance commensurate with the advance in raw materials, and it would appear that retailers throughout the United States would have to get a corresponding advance.” The association attributed the rise in prices of materials to a falling off in the general supply of hides and calf-skins accompanied by an increase in demand in European and other countries. —o More Bodies Are Recovered From S-4 Washington, Jan. 7. — (INS) —Four additional bodies recovered from the hulk of ihe submarine S-4 have been idenified as follows: Lieut. Commander William F. Gallaway, of Clinton, Mo., a member of the board of inspection of the navy department who was aboard the submarine on her trial run. Fred H. O’Shields, Atlanta, Ga. Carl H. Thompson, San Francisco. James K. White, Rockmart, Ga. Six more bodies of men who died inside the steel hull of the sunken S-4 off Provincetown were recovered today by the salvage worker*. o If It Is Printed Chinese Save It Shanghai —(UP) The Chinese reverence for the printed word is profound. Throughout the International Settlement are thousands of small wooden boxes or doth bags attached to poles Foreigners generally ignore these recepticales for refuse but not so with the Chinese. le is no uncommon sight to see respectable, well-dressed Chinese pick up bits of paper from the street and place them in the receptides. This is especially true cf old newspapers or any paper on which words are /printed. As a result of this the streets of the Settlement are remarkably free from waste paper.
