AUSTRALIA SETS PACE IN BOOM Australia Is First Commonwealth To Find Recovery Canberra (U.R) — Australia is boasting of being the first member of the British commonwealth, if not, indeed, the first country in the world, to turn completely the, corner of trade depression. As a consequence, it is now ben efitting greatly by the general rise 1 in the world level of prices while unemployment has been reduced to a normal level. Official figures just gathered by the government on every aspect of the national economy show that j Australia is back on a normal ba- ' sis from the world wide depression ' that resulted from the World War. Deposits in the 10 Australian ; trading banks have reached the I total of 11.535,000,000 and are in I excess of advances by 1225,730.000, i while Ixmdon funds to meet debt | and other commitments have in- * creased during the last year by roughly 150,000,000. Unemployment has fallen from the peak of 30 per cent in June. 1932. to 8.4 per cent, which is normal. In Western Australia, however, it is as low as 5.4 per cent. Building is enjoying an excep--1 tional boom throughout the coun- . try. carrying with it a correspond- ; ing prosperity in the heavy indus- ' tries. In the six state capitals, nearly 1120,000.000 was spent on building during the fiscal year just ended as against only $20,607,000 in > 1931-32. Sydney and suburbs alone I last year spent $50,300,000. Railway traffic also is reflecting the return of prosperity. The return on capital earned by the Vic- ' torian railways for the year was 3.2 per cent, or .86 per cent more , than the four English groups and • 169 per cent better than the first : claAs American lines. The New South Wales government lines expect to beat their l record of passenger traffic for the year by more than 7,00.000 fares, i This system, incidentally, holds , the world's safety record of carrying 1.500,000.000 people in the last 10 years without a fatality. Influenza Data Recorded LONDON (U.R)—The results of a ! census undertaken among a group of factory workers in Great Britain indicate that there is no scientific foundation for the popular belief that much of the spread of influenza takes place in public < conveyances, the British Medical Journal declares.

MONSTER KILLS PEARL DIVER Mysterious Sea Serpent Is Spreading Terror Near Australia i Sydney, July 29—(U.PJ—A mysterious sea monster is spreading terror among the crews of Japan-' ese pearling luggers operating' near Elcho Island, North Australia. : One diver was attacked and killed I on the sea bed. Marine zoologists say that the | only known monster capable of i such an attack is a “white death" shark, which is usually about 40 feet long. There have been reports of “white death" sharks 100 feet long. The lost Japanese diver had been working in 35 fathoms of water and had been down 20 minutes when the crew of the lugger received the first hint of sudden trouble —a vigorous tug on the airliose and lifeline, which they be-, gan to haul in. The lines floated to the surface ] without the diver and no trace of i his metal helmet and boots could I be found. Next morning a few I remnants of clothing were found floating on the surface. Crews of the luggers in the neighborhood said that at least seven Japanese divers have been! lost within a few weeks. Most of ] them have been victims of diver's I paralysis. The heavy loss is partly due to i the fact that many young and in-| experienced divers are among the | crews of the Japanese luggers. COMMITTEE ON STREETS BUSY Streets Committee To Mark Off Spaces For All Concessions Members of the streets commit-] tee of the Decatur Free Street Fair, will have a t usy week, ac- i cording to the work planned for] the committee.

The markings will be made of lime and water, Mr. Roop stated, so that they may be easily removed after the fair week is ended. In addition to this, the fire department, under the supervision of Fire Chief Charles Robenold I and aided by the street depart-

INDIAN KNEW GEO.CUSTEB White Horse Copeland Warned Custer Against War Colorado Springs, Colo., July 29 (U.R) —ls Gen. George A. Custer had listened to Charles Copeland, he might be alive today “though of course a very old man," according to Copeland, a Cherokee Indian with the tribal name of White Horse who says he is 93. "White Horse” Copeland says he was born In 1844, the son of a Cherokee chief and a mother who came from a line of Norse nobility. Age has dimmed his memory to some extent and he talks in a strange mixture of old • time phraseology and modern slang. Te describes the Custer massacre of June 26, 1876: "Yea brother, this is how it was. I was there with a bunch of friendly Indians on our way to an Idaho reservation. We were going up there to teach those fellows how to live like white men. “We passed through that country (the battlefield) and talked to Custer and Sitting Bull. "Sitting Bull was a big-shot medicine man and a great general. "You know this is not peace; I said to Sitting Bull and he said to me. ‘I know it is not peace, they are after my hide.’ “To Custer I said, ‘They will get your hide brother, I know you are a graduate of West Point, but don't go in there!” “He woiHd not listen. There were 20,000 Indians there and not a man of Custer's force was left.” General Custer with a force of 600 men assumed he was attacking a party of 1,200 Pawnees whom hf believ'd marching to join Sitting Bull. The 7th Cavalry was outnumbered by the Indians in the

The necessity for something being done to remedy the situation developed when it was found that often when a car stopped to pay • toll, the accumulated electricity in I the car would run down the driv- | er's arm into the coin he was tendI ering tne toll collector and give ' the latter something of a jump. I The situation was remedies by the installation of "cat's whiskers” I of slender metal rods which conI tact the frames of incoming cars ■ and ground the static electricity ' before the toll collector gets it via the 50-cent fare. o MISS SIMON, MEET PAUL PAUL Fresno, Cal.

FILM SHORTAGE DUE TO CENSOR . I ■ German Ban On Many Films Revives Old Pictures i Berlin, July 29 —(U.R)—An acute film shoytagt has developed in Germany. | The supply of films is running so low that Berlin’s leading movies 1 1 are reviving last season's hits. Thus, one of the most fashion- ‘ able film theaters in the Berlin 11 West End revived Marlene Dietrich's “Desire,” and Berlin's biggest movie house, the Ufa Palace, ’ is showing an old Austrian comedy. The chief reason for the shortage is that a surprisingly large percentage of films sold to the- , aters could never be delivered be- [ cause they had been banned by the censor. Thus, it is said that one-fourth of the films announced . by the biggest German firm, the ’] Tobis, could not be released “for , I technical reasons.” As a result, there is great distress among Berlin extras. Film producers have become so , uncertain owing to the risks of , I censorship that they have greatly ( curtailed production. There are many applicants for every bit of a role, but only very few can find employment. American films like “Born to , Dance” still pack houses in Ber- , lin; others, such as the “Good Earth,” are not allowed, either be(l cause leading roles are played by r non Aryans or for political reat sons. o Professor Rates Pigs Among Clean Anmals 11 Amherst, Mass., July 29—(U.R) — f) Pigs are among the cleanest of all 1 animals, according to Victor A.

Rice, professor of animal husbandry at Massachusetts State College. "PPigs like to roll in mud to keep themselves warm," he explains. “Pigs have no sweat gland, and this is a process of ‘heat radiation' whereby the body temperature of the animal is regulated. They are far cleaner than either horses or cows.” SMITHY STAYS ON IN VILLAGE Third Generation Practices Ancient Trade In Ohio Jefferson. O. July 29 (U.R) — A symbol of an age commonly thought long gone still stands and prospers in this town. It is the village smithy. Albert Bailey has been in business 46 years. Never in all those years has his bellows missed a puff. There was a time, Bailey said, when it seemed that horses had become extinct animals, seen only in museums. But today Bailey joyfully reports an increase of 25 per cent in his horse-cobbling business, over the 1936 trade. The upshoot is due to the fact that horses are coming back to the farm scene. Bailey learned bis trade from his father, who beat the anvil here for 35 years. His grandfather also was a blacksmith. Jefferson was for many years known as the "Little Kentucky" of Ohio. Hundreds of workhorses were sired here, as well as light harness stock. o— Rib Broken in Embrace Fremont, O. —(U.R)— A young husband, returning from his honeymoon, greeted his wife's aunt with such an enthusiastic hug that she suffered a broken rib.
