Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Thursday’s Times: The Sacred Tooth of Buddha — The Sacred Tooth of Gautama Buddha in the Temple of Kandy, Ceylon, constitutes the palladium of the island. Custody of this sacred relic was the chief attribute of power in a large part of India. When the Portuguese took Ceylon in 1530, the Tooth was ordered seized and destroyed. It was then that the most stupendous offer of ransom in history took place. The Buddhist STAGE PILOT 50 YEARS Veteran Plainsman Started Career When Grant Was President.

priests offered the Portuguese bishop his weight in rubies for surrender of the tooth. The value of the ransom has been estimated at about 20,000,000 pounds, which would be equal to about $1,000,000,000 in purchasing power at the present time. This stupendous offer was refused and the relic was destroyed. The tooth, which is at present preserved in the temple, is a subsequent substitution by the Buddhist priests. Refusal of this ransom illuminates the intensity of religious feeling at the time.

RICH HARVEST FALLS TO SPY t ARMY OF U, S, Thousands of Snoopers in Nation Garner Millions in Year. Bv Times Special NEW YORK, June 20. Americans, in spite of their protestations of a love for personal liberty and fair play, are the most spying and spied-upon people on earth. This is the assertion of Howard McLellan, criminologist and writer, one-time manager for one of the largest private detective agencies, made in an article written for the current issue of the North American Review. McLellan estimates that between 20,000 and 30,000 private detectives constantly are employed throughout the United States, and that the public pays a minimum of $150,000 a day, or $54,750,000 a year, to “get the goods” on somebody. Aside from two major private detective organizations with branch offices in thirty cities, there are 5,000 smaller agencies with personnels of from one to ten operatives each, he finds. Os this army of privately engaged spies, at least 2,000 are women, many of them girls with college backgrounds and good social connections who go into the work for the thrill of it. Divorce is the background of the private detective business —husbands hiring men to tft-ail their wives, wives hiring women to win the confidence of their suspected husbands —because it is one phase of detection which is not, legally, undertaken by the police. The larger agencies usually advertise that they do not undertake to obtain divorce evidence, but this is only technically true, says the North American Review article. They will not permit their operatives to take the stand as witnesses or otherwise identify themselves with a case after it has reached the legal stage, but they will “shadow anybody for anybody” and report cm the movements of the subject, notifying their client when the opportune time has come so that he, or she, may provide witnesses to support the case in court. Ethics and fair play generally are disregarded and the law itself is broken into many pieces by many of

tics, office workers or to other capacities, McLellan says. The divorce case haul of the private detective is even richer than the public suspects, he points out, for many couples who are reported "amicably divorced” in Paris or Mexico, really have spent weeks or months “getting the goods,” one on the other, with which to enforce the “amicable agreement.”
