In the Sugar Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Oct. 30.—Influences which may have a further stimulating effect noon the sugar industry are developing almost daily. The extreme cold spell in the West, according- to latest reports, have damaged the beet cron lo some extent. Anxietv over the continued dry snell in Cuba has undoubtedly influenoed the renewed buying of refined sugar in the eastern territory.

INTERNATIONAL RADIO WEEK TO BEGIN JAN. 25 World-Wide Broadcasting Tests Will Be Attempted. Bu Times Special NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—Intel-na-tional Radio Week, the period of greatest activity on the part of broadcasting stations throughout’ the world, will come the last week in January, as the result of a committee meeting of the Radio Week Committee conducted recently in New York. As in previous years, the big feature of the period will be the international broadcasting tests where broadcasters in America will transmit special programs each night until 10 o’clock Central Time for the benefit of overseas listeners, signing off for a full hour between 10 and 12, so that American listeners may listen for foreign stations. Last Trial Success Broadcasting stations In more than fifteen countries will participate in these tests, according to a report rendered by Arthur H. Lynch, editor of Radio Broadcast, who heads the International Test Committee. During the last International Radio Week listeners in virtually every section of the country recorded overseas stations and American programs were heard in almost every country in Europe. Complete cooperation between American stations is expected this year, and it is virtually a certainty that every American broadcaster will observe the silept periods this year. In past years all stations with a very few exceptions have observed the period. 5 Special Programs Speoial programs by American stations also will be a feature of this week, according to one of the committee reports given at the radio week meeting. "American broadcast ers ere able to present the most interesting programs of any in the world," George Furness stated, in discussing the work of the committee on better programs for radio week, which he heads, "present indications are that every broadcaster In the country will make especial efforts *o present programs of the highest foe -during this period,” he concluded. Leo potte -, who was chairman of the committc" l on arrangements, explained why the International Radio Week period had been moved from late in November to late in January, pointing out that conditions overseas were better at this season of the year, while American listeners also were hotter nble to receive the foreign programs. INVESTIGATE TRADITION TIL, LENS AKER, Norway, Oct. 30. —There 3s a grass and tree-grown tumulus near here that Is sixty feet high and more than 300 feet in diameter. Traditional legends say it contains a stone chamber in which are the remains of an unknown king, lying on a couch between two white horses. In 1870 an attempt was made to open the mound, but falling earth prevented the completion of the work. Archaeologsits are now preparing to make a fresh attempt to teat the truth of the tradition.

PROHIBITION IS FROWNED UPON IN ALURELAND Progress Is Almost Negligible —Commission Plans Remedies. liy George Macllouagh United Press Staff Correspondent DUBLIN. Oct. 30.—Progress toward prohibition in the Irish Free State is so slow as to he almost negligible. In fact in some communities the progress is distinctly in the opposite direction, according to startling figures just revealed by a commission which has been studying the Free State liquor problem. In one town —Glenrnaddy, County Galway—with a population of IS9 men, women and children, the commission found that thirteen of the thirty-five buildings composing the village, were saloons. In the Free State as a whole the commission found 13,000 saloons, or one saloon to every 270 of the population. Asa remedy for the situation, which was considered serious, the commission recommended: 1. Reduction cf the number of saloons by almost one-half. 2. Alteration of the hours during which saloorts may remain open including a provision for closing them during the afternoon hours. 3. Compensation to the owners of saloons closed by order of the commission, by means of a levy on the saloons allowed to remain open. But the commission recommended that on St. Patricks day the saloons closed under the present law be allowed to remain open under the same arrangement now in force on Sundays. The report of the commission will be presented to -the Dail when it reassembles in November. Considerable opposition to it is expected, but the general belief is that it will be passed with some slight modifications.

COURTS ATTACK NEW BUS LAW Deputy Attorney General Has Nearly Twenty Cases. The new State motor bus law enacted by the last Legislature is being bombarded from all angles in courts throughout the State, according to Edward L. White, deputy attorney general. The attorney general’s department has approximately twenty cases in which the law Is Attacked. Proceedings have been filed by bus companies as well as by railroads and interurban lines. White said One case which was filed by a bus operator in Grant .County, specifically attacks the constitutionality of the law. The plaintiff alleges the law to be unconstitutional on the grounds the public service commission has no authority to regulate vehicles on a public highway under the Constitution. Avery nearly same contention was raised by traction and railroad lines when laws were first enacted to regulate them. White said. All attempts to make their regulation unconstitutional were defeated. IT MAY BE THE TRUTH Husbands are all right in their place, but they don’t amount to much on the Navajo Indian reservation, it was learned by members of the Paramount Company who went to the reservation to make scenes for the forthcoming Richard Dix picture, “The Vanishing American." Navajo husbands have to toe the mark it was discovered, or out they go. A HAND LESS CLOCK LONDON. Oct.. 30. —Anew clock without hands is being tested here.

Oct. 30.—Large animals are always of interest because of their size, but the sulphurbottomed whale, the largest creature known, keeps well out of sight. These animals often reach a length of 90 feet. Its weight has not,been determined, but a torpedo boat of the same length and of the same underwater contour would displace thlrtv-two tons of water. These animals live in the twilight zone of the ocean. WASP KILLS WOMAN LEICESTER. Eng..

Notice that far-away look in the king’s eyes. His mind is evidently still working out plans for the defeat of the Danes, and as yet he scarcely liears the scolding voice. He has evidently been shaping a spear shaft with his 1.-nlfe, and he has his battle ax at his side. The herdsman’s wife is berating him for letting the cakes burn.

mN a small, lonely island amid the swamps of Wessex, !n southwestern England, King Alfred —“the wisest, best, and greatest king that ever reigned in Englaid” —had sought refuge from his enemies, the Danes, who for a mini* Iberof years had been plundering the j land and overrunning the kingdoms. One day, so the story goes, Alfred was sheltered in a herdsman’s hut, and the housewife, having to leave | the hut for a few moments, bade | her guest watch the cakes baking j before the fire. This Alfred readily promised to do; but his mind soon turned to affairs of state and to plans for defeating the Danes; so | whtn the woipan returned she found her cakes burned to a cinder. An old English song represents her as scolding the king, whom she did not know, saying: Can’t you mind the cakes, man? And don’t you see them burn? I’m bound you’ll eat them fast enough. As soon as ’tis the turn. Another story tells how Alfred went into the Danish camp disguised as a minstrel or wandering singer in order to spy out the strength of the enemy. The Danes were so pleased with his singing that he had difficulty in getting away again. He then summoned his warriors f.’om their homes, to which they had scattered at the end of the preceding campaign to care for their fami ies and prepare their crops. With this newly formed army he then defeated the Danes in battle and drove them back into their fortified camp, where he besieged them for fourteen days. Since they were now separated from their ships and cut off from their supplies, the Danish leader Guthrum made a treaty, in which,he agreed to leave Alfred’s kingdom and to accept Christianity. Later anew treaty was made which fixed the Thames river and the old Roman road called Watling Street as the boundary between Alfred’s kingdom and the Danish lands north of it. This treaty brought peace to the land and allowed Alf.ed to turn his attention to other pursuits than war. One of the things in which he wus greatly interested was the encouragement of learning. One day when he was only a young boy his mother had said to him and to his brothers: "Do you see this little bodk with its clear black writing and the beautiful letter at the beginning, painted in red, hlue and gold? It shall belong to the one who first learns its songs.” "Mother." said Alfred, "will you really give that beautiful book to me if I learn it first?” "Yes," was her leply. "I really will." Alfred then took the book to his teacher and soon learned to repeat the verses. Now that he was king (871-899) Alfred invited learned men from other countries to his kingdom to instruct his people. He established a school similar to the Palace School of Charlemagne, and he trhnslated a number of books from Latin into English, so that the people might read them. Under his direction was begun, also, the “An-glo-Saxon Chronicle.” This is a rec ord of events, year by year, kept by the monks, and from it we get most of our knowledge of that early time But. not all of Alfred’s time was devoted to books. He rebuilt London i which had been partially destroyed by the Danes. He improved the army so that his kingdom might never again suffer us it had from these i Northmen. He saw that England needed a navy as well as an army, and so he began to build ships; for

‘SKINNY’ SKYSCRAPER Two Million Dollar Hotel to Itc Erected. Rii Timm Snrci'il CHICAGO, Oct. 30.—What is believed to be the thinnest skyscraper hotel in the world is shortly to be built by Chicagoans half way between Gulfport and Biloxi, Mississippi. The hotel, a $2,000,000 structure, will be but 500 feet in length and only forty feet wide. The unique design was selected due to the fact that this arrangement will permit every one of the hotel's 400 rooms to overlook the Gulf of Mexico. 800 POI ND FISH CORNWALL, England. Oct. 30.

this he is known as the “father of the English navy." He encouraged industries of all kinds, and finally he collected and revised the old laws of th 9 kingdom in order the justice might he obtained more easily. His aim was expressed in his own words: "To sum up all," he said, "it has ever been my desire to live worthily while I was alive, and, after my death to leave to those that should come after me my memory in good works.” That he succeeded in this he proved by the fact that the English cherished his memory as fEn gland's Darling,” and we now | call him “Alferd the Great." WOMANS’ CLUBS UPHOLD YOUTH ‘Don’t Give You Son a HighWheeled Bicycle.’ CHICAGO, Oct. 30. —Mothers who j seek to instruct the younger generation upon the precepts of the Victorians are about as wise as the father, who would advise his son to purchase a high-wheeled bicycle of the fashion of the ’9o’s as means of transit." Mrs. L. A. Miler, chairman of literature for the General Federation of Womans’ Clubs of Chicago, gave this opinion in a speech in which she made a plea for a set of ideals built upon the problems of the present age. “The problems of youth are set forth by their own generation," Mrs. Miller declared. "Perhaps youth is working out its own problems and evolving something finer and freer than we have known hitherto, founded upon a frank recognition of life. "We forget for a time that to ho good citizens and a good mother, one must be familiar with what the wisest minds before U3 have said and written." DISAPPOINTED 11RIDES PARIS, Oct. 30.—Disappointed war brides are returning daily from America to their homes in France. It has been estimated that as many as 30 per cent of the marriages between American soldiers and French girls have resulted in a failure. The returning women come back either on their own free will or are sent back by their husbands. A favorite trick is for the husband to send his French wife across the sea for a visit and then discontinue writing to her. COLD CAUSES GIVEN WASHINGTON. Oct. 30.—Causes for colds, attributed to hundreds of different atmospheric and physical disturbances, is chiefly due to overfatigue and stale air, according to a bulletin issued by the U. S. Public Health Service. The majority of colds are "caught” during the months when little outdoor exercise is taken. INSECTS LAUGH AT COLD ' MOSCOW, Oct. 30.—Experiments made here show how insects are able to endure the freezing weather of winter months. The insects have the power of changing the temperature of their body by decreasing their activity. If the insects go to sleep the body temperature falls low and keeps cold weather from having a serious effort on the bodies.
