POSTMASTER TIPS NOVEL IMMIGRANT SWINDLE SCHEME Land Would Make Alien Agriculturist, 3-ffer by Two Firms. 81l Times Koccial WASHINGTON, Mtfy 13.—What postal inspectors say is an ingenious scheme to swindle foreigners out of large sums of money has just been nipped by Postmaster General Harry S. New. New has issued a fraud order preventing future delivery of any mail addressed either to M. Gawansky and Company, Chicago, or the Marston Missouri Farms, Marston, Mo., where several thousand acres of land figuring in the scheme are located. Forty-Acre Tracts According to postal officials of the two concerns attempted to sell forty-acre tracts to aliens under the pretense and promise that all purchasers would be treated as agriculturists by immigration authorities and thereby obtain prompt entry into the United States. The price asked for each tract and house was ?5,000, of which at least $750 must be given as first payment. Postal authorities say the men involved in the fraud first interested foreigners by inserting attractive advertisements in foreign language newspapers. Sample Ad The following advertisement which appeared recently in a Hungarian daily, published in Cleveland, is a sample: “Good news. We are in such position that we may bring over your relatives and friends from Europe Withhi a short time. M. Gawansky & Cos., 320 S! La Salle St., Chicago, 111.” Persons answering the advertisement immediately w-ere sent letters picturing the land in glowing terms and promising immigration vises to purchasers. Typical Paragraph One paragraph takes from a typical letter reads as follows: “As our Washington lawyer notifies us, every buyer will get the vise, since two Senators, one Congressman and the Governor of Missoui'i are leading our case, that the vises be obtained.” W. E. Kelly, acting solicitor of the Postoffice Department, said today that promises and representations similar in character to those contained in letters were also made personally to prospective remitters by traveling representatives pf the concern. None Admitted Kelly said officials of the company | admitted to postal inspectors that

Radio, which makes it possible for a voice in London to be heard in Madrid, Berlin, Vienna, Rome and other capitals at much greater distances, will ultimately bring about a common understanding and feeling of kinship among the people of the earth. This will eventually mean a universal language and a universal speech. Thus spoke Dr. LeADeForest, who, in 1908, invented the three-electrode vacuum tube, when a guest recently of Powel Crosley Jr., of WLW, Cincinnati. Os his invention he said that at the time he did not dream of the things that it would do and of the future that lay before it. This it was that made possible in 1915 the first transcontinental telephone service and just last January the opening of commercial transatlantic radio telephone service between London and America. Who knows —his new vision of a single tongue may some day be realzide, and Dr. DeForest will become a prophet as well as a pioneer. Fish for KHJ, Los Angeles, and enjoy the sixty-five piece Ambassador Band. It is a regular feature at 11 p. m. each Friday.

Kiss Must Be Real to Get Across Bu \FA Sr nice OAKLAND, Cal., May 13. The public can’t be deceived, even behind the veil of radio. There’s the simple matter of broadcasting a kiss, for instance. At first, stations like WGY, KGO and others thought it enough for a player to kiss the back of his hand before the microphone to make it sound like the real thing. But fans soon wrote in and wondered what kind of interference that was. Now KGO has gone back to the real thing, even in the privacy of the studio. The kiss must be real and full of the romantic meaning it is intended to convey, or, it won’t pass.

FUTURE 6f CITIES STRESSED Sociologist Declares Civilization Depends on Proper Urban Plan. Bu United Frets EVANSTON, 111., May 13.—The future of western citilization hinges upon the reorganization of its great cities and their environs, according to Dr. William L.

modern life is urban in contrast to medieval life. “Three-fourths of all the cities of over 1,000,000 are in Europe and America. Half of these over 100,000 are in Europe. The significant fact is that in most instances over half the population is in an area of ten miles around the cities,” said Bailey. "And if modern civilization fs not able to organize such regions, then it too will pass.” The groat cities sometimes dubbed “dinosaurian” by their critics have been blamed for the danger of wars and world-wide famine according to the sociologist. In conclusion, Dr. Bailey said that historical events center In cities and their relics arc its records. Cities, he said, are the greatest works of man and each epoch rises and falls in its cities.
