TRADE WITH FOE IS STILL ILLEGAL I). S. IS WARNED

. Uien Property Custodian Will Continue to Perform Present Duties, Says Statement. .

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. A. Mitchtll Palmer, alien property custodian, tn a statement last night, said the ligning of. the armistice does not change his functions or affect his polices in any way. "The United States and Germany," laid Mr. Palmer, "are still at war, and' Lbe trading-with-the-enemy'act Is still In force. The alien property custodian will, therefore, continue to perform the Juties which that act lays upon him, ind will carry out the evident intent Df congress with relation to enemy property until final peace Bhall come. "As long as the tradlng-with-the enemy act is in force it remains the iuty of all persons having the custody or control of enemy property in this country to make report thereof to the illen property custodian. There is

much property in the country not yet reported. Attention is called to this

fact because persons having the custody of enemy property are making

themselves liable to prosecution under

the act for failure to report it. Explains Sales Policy.

"Some misunderstanding of our pol

icy with respect to sales of enemy property seems to have arisen. Speaking generally, only two classes of property hate been or will be sold. . These are: First, the enemy interests in partnerships, branches or agencies to which licenses to do business have been refused, or to which licenses have been granted for the purpose of liquidation In these cases in order to liquidate, we have been compelled to sell property of various kinds. "Second, the enemy owned shares of stock or other interest in American corporations where the enemy holding Is large enough to influence or control the management of American industrial and commercial concerns. It is perfectly clear that in granting the power of Bale congress intended that the enemy interest in such corporations should be placed in American hands or fair value, after public sale thereof. At the time the armistice was signed, a large number of such properties were ready to be sold by the alien property custodian and these Bales will be proceeded with. "Investments of individual German subjects, either in stocks, bonds, mortgages, real estate or other property In America.' will not be sold except when they fall within the two classes herein mentioned

SALES OF W. S. S. AFTER WAR URGED TO PROMOTE THRIFT

(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. Suggestions that government sale of war savings and thrift stamps be continued after the war to promote the saving habit among citizens hvw reached the treasury during the last week, but officials stated to day that no decision has been reached concerning peacetime policies. Advocates of the indefinite continuation of the system urge that war saving stamps have acquired a reputation which could not be trans f erred to postal saving bonds, ; which were issued long before the war. They suggest also that government savings system could be made the vehicle for economy propaganda, which they regard as necessary over many, years, or until the war is actually pal for tnrough'the redemption of outstanding war bonds. Officials point out, however, that the voluntary organizations built . up during the .war for mflarketing of the stamps cannot be continued more than a year longer, even if it works successfully that long, and that thereafter the government would have to rely on postofflces and banks to sell the stamps. Whether savings banks would oppose the system, believing that it would deprive them oC saving deposits, or help to promote it, the theory that encouraging the savings habit generally would redound to their benefit is yet to b determined. The new series of stamps to be placed on sale, Jan 1, will be ready for distribution within a week or two. The report' of sales by states in October, Issued to day, shows that Ohio

leads all states, both in volume, $9.763,000, an'd in per capita sales, 1.85. Harry Wolfe, the Ohio state director, reported that voluntary purchases had become so systematic that the demand for stamps wiuld continue after the

war. North Dakota. South Dakota,

Washington, Montana and Oregon, followed Ohio in per capita sales.

been giving the police some anxious moments during the last week, it was learned Wednesday- afternoon when one of the "gang" was arraigned in city court. The police expected to have the others rounded up by this evening. Since last Sunday a number of mysterious automobile disappearances have been reported. On Sunday Dr. A. B. Martin's car was stolen . and was found later . In "Reevestonv On Monday a red truck was stolen, and yesterday was located on the New

Paris pike. Yesterday afternoon the Hartman Milk truck mysteriously disappeared. . . In each case the car was found to have been abandoned without having been greatly damaged. The boys made no effort to sell the cars or to destroy them and it is thought that a desire to go "Joy riding" was their only incentive in commiting the thefts. Until yesterday mystery surrounded the thefts, and there were rumors that a state-wide ring of automobile thieves had extended their activities to Richmond. Yesterday came the denoument and five small boys saw their "bandit" career ended. Last evening as W. L. Stump, a teacher at the Richmond Business college, came out of the Colonial building he saw a young boy cranking his Bulck. He put the boy In his car

and took him to police court. The

boy confessed that he and four other boys had stolen the cars whose theft had been reported to the police, and that they abandoned them Whenever they ran out of gasoline. He also confessed to stealing some blankets and dishes from the Cedar Springs hotel. The lumber which they stole and the articles taken from Cedar Springs were for a "shack," be told the police.

$15Q,eQ9,000 Is Melted for Export to Mia (Bv Awo lated Press.) WASHINGTON, Nov. 21. More than 150,000,000 silver dollars have been taken from the treasury vaults in the last few months and melted Into bullion for export to India and other oriental countries, where large quantities of silver for small coins were needed to pay soldiers and for trade. A treasury report today showed that the fund of 490,000,000 silver dollars in the vaults six months ago has shrunk to $338,368,000.

$2 federal reserve notes, the only strictly war-time currency of the nation. In the last month, the melting has gone on at the rate of $4,000,000 a week. The silver has been shipped across the continent to Pacific ports, secretly from time to time in heavily guarded

express trains.
