AMERICANS IN ~ FRANCE SPENT MUCH IN ’29 Heavy Trousit Taxes Send Many Visitors to Other Countries » By Ralph itetnzen Paris. Felly 25—(CP) — The several hundred thousand American tourists who trod over France last year, sunning on Deauville's golden sands, digging into tuins in the war om s or just sigh'seeing in Paris, turned France s deficient trade bal mice of $88,000,000 into a banking balance favorable by $122,000,00(1. Although 1929 was less of a travel year than any year since 1924, as far as American are concerned, French official sources fix it $210,000,000 the amount of American gqM pome 1 into the laps’of F. ench hotelkeepers music . hall ■ twners, railtuads and steamships. France's tourist attraction* and, scenic beauties brought htr more in her exchange with America than did all her mei exports. American tourists left in France fivetimes th: sum in gold that France pal l to the United States last year on her war debts account. Yet France is worried because I here ia a noticeable slump in tourist traVtl during 1929. The Wall Street crash which sobeied Americ.' has had an immediate effect on tour .st travel, and the Riviera is com paratively empty while last year at this tints it was filled wi h Americans, vacationing on the profits of their past time in Wall street. Several days ago, a London newspaper published a photograph of the famous tennis courts of Monte Carlo on a bright January afternoon. Tild playing a singl s mat™, and ye¥ the two players and their two oallboys were exactly double the mril.e. of -p-cators.who «at in tin million dollar stands.' 1 ’ From unofficial but conservative soutet-s, it is Larned that American ton. ,sts left 2,000,000,000 francs less behind them in 1929 than the previous year. Most of that money went to Germany and Italy whete tout is s are beckoned wi'h promts’s >f relief from vexatious taxation That has led to a new undercurrent of protest in France against the many petty taxes to which a visiting foreigner is subjected. In France tourists pay $2 passpor: visa, which indy and Germany haw lone away with. France charges landing tourists $4 “port fee" which Is in reality meant to form a fund f;om which seamen's pensions are paid. Germany and Italy pay their seamen's pensions from domestic •.axes. Fiance obliges a tourist to take out a police identification card at a ■ost of several dollars after a month stay. That necessitates long waits in Sir y police headquarters corridors, with the atmosphere of tobad(K> smoke and suspicion peculiar to po lice headquarters. France then charges a tax anu d luxe on hotel bills, restaurant bills, taxicab fares, railroad uckets almost everything purchased in the shops, and besides, chaiges a "lax de sejour'' in all of the watering resorts, this later intended to help retorts keep the streets clean. Since Italy and Germany have made Americans welcome and have done away with vexing taxes they have reaped the golden reward which France is beginning to regret. There is now a movement to spend $100,000,000 a year on tourist propaganda for France, just as Germany does, but lhe government has done nothing to reduce taxes on tourists. ' — Feed the Cat Cut’s meat, sold to fond owners of household pets over a period of many years, has made a fortune for Qne London Man.

BRITAIN SEEKS TUNG OIL DATA TO LEAD WORLD Basis For New Airplane Paint Sought Through Experiments London, Feb. 25. - <U.R> Great Britain Is experimenting In a new industry which promises to play an important part In the development of civil and commercial aviation. The Empire Marketing Board has made grants in an effort to capture the tnng oil production for Britain and the Dominions. The Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, Surrey, hag been granted $3,501) to provide tung oil seeds for dis trlbution throughout the empire Promising trials in the growing of tung s'eds are now he iig mudi in Austrialia, New Zealand South Africa. Kenya, India, Burma. Ceylon. Assam, the West Indies. Hong Kong, the Malay states. Cyprus, Palestine and fanaganyika with supplies sent from Kew. Tung oil i- an essential-constitu-ent of the water-1 eslsting varnishes used on a'reraft. It is mainly due to tung oil that airplanes are able ’o fly so successfully ill wet weather. Ite i: suns off t|ie airplanes in--tead of soaking into the structure, adrlffig considerably to the weight of the machines and also rotting lie Materials,. The world has been dependent almost entirely on China for supplies of tung <».l. but shipments are irregular and the quantity insufficient to meet the growing demand. Since the war production has begun on a small scale in the United States, but <he empire is trying to establish the industry on a suitable scale. In addition to the grant,to the Royal Botanic gardens, the Empire Marketing Board has made a grant .of $3,750 a year to the Paint and Varnish Research Association. This will enable the association to conduct experiments in England with tung fruits to ascertain the best means of extracting the oli, and to find new uses to which it may be put. Experiments in the use St the residue to make feeding cake tor cattle will also be carried out. o INDUSTRIAL ALCOHOL MAY GET NEW NAME Manufacturers Seek to Rename Product Used In Many Ways New Yotk. Feb. 25 —(UP) —Dena t ired alcohol, the industfiaj product may be renamed by its manufactures as a protest against the wide spread use of its present designation as a synonym for outlawed liquor. "Oeuaturol” is orfe dt the namec that have been suggested as a substitute. "The w ord alcohol,” declared Capain James P. McGovern, genera! mennsel of the Industrial Alcohol Institute, “does not appta v in the Eighteenth. Amendment. Yet ths mere mention of alcohol brings Im ncdiate'.y to mind intoxicating bev•rages forbidden under the Constiution. It was not alcohol the chemical that was legislated against, but alcohol the drink. “The very title of the National Prohibition Act, popularly known is the Volstead Act, declared that one of its purposes was 'to insure m ample supply of alcohol and pronote its u ;e in scientific research ind in the development of fuel. Denatured alcohol, its manufacturers say, has demonstrati d its utility in industry to such an extent ’ha 71 special formulas have been mthorized foe use in the manufactire of 410 classes of products. The products listed in the newest fornula schedules range alphabetically from acetaldehyde to xylose and he hundreds of intervening products include the following. Artificial flowers, aspirin, laun Iry bluing, cemenr, cigars* cigarettes, candy, cultury, dentifrices, ether, films, glass, ha’s imitation vary, leather and rubber, insulin, mouth wash, paper, pencils, rouge compacts, shaving cream, shellac, smelling salts, soap, vinegar watches, wire and wax. Because of these diversified and beneficent uses of their product, the members of the Industrial Alcohol Institute believe it worthy of a higher place in popular esteem than in enjoys at present because of the in desenminat us? of the word alcohol o describe every kind of illicit beverage. According to Dr. Frank H. Vizet'lly, lexicographer and managing' editor of the Funk and Wagnalls dictionaries, the term or any other coined substitute for I he name now in use would have a good chance of general acceptance' if its use were sanctioned by the; Department of Chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture and adopted by newspapers

I CYCIHST IS 80, BUT PEDALS ON TO NEW RECORD Terre Haute Civil War Veteran Has Ridden 1,000,000 Miles ? Terre Haute, Ind.. Feb. 25 —(VI?) W. L. Jones, Civil War veteran and Terre Haute civic worker, has pedaled his bicycle more than 1,000,000 miles and he is still riding al.hough mote than 80 years old. During the severe winter months, when the streets were dangerously icy. Uncle Wash, as he is known, continued his daily rides down Garfield Avenue. Uncle Wash retired from business this winter, not because he or his employer thought he was too old. but betause he and his wife believed someone else needed the job. < Uncle Wash learned to ride a bicycle 40 years ago, when he was an insurant salesman and collector. "If you want to stay young, just get a bicycle and ride it until you’ve ived SO years and more,’’ Uncle Wa h said, but he didn't tell how many years were' covered by “more.” Mi. and Mrs. Jones already have signed papers leaving most of theii ft’ash gives o mut h for the old minptypertv to a fund for the aid ot aged Methodist ministers. “It stems strange that Uncle ister’s" a Methodist preacher said ■ Most of the men he i* helping are years younger than he.” Uncl- Wash denied it. 'Tni not old,” he insisted. “I’m young, that’s the reason I’ll admit to being 80 year- an I more —yo.ung." Gen.
