EVERYBODY BUYING DIAMONDS, DEALERS SAY; PRICES 60 UP

During the past two weeks thousands of dollars worth of diamonds have been purchased from local Jewlers, many of whom say that a thouatad dollar sale or two in a day ia not uausual. Diamond sales have been remarkably large for a year, they say. "America seems to have wakened rom the war with a jolt and found herself with more money In circulation than ever before," said a jeweler. "This is true here as elsewhere. Especially are farmers spending money and we are coming in for our part In sales. Diamonds as investments are attracting many." he said. Because of the startling rise in the diamond market the buyer has the prospect of selling a diamond bought for $800, for fl.COO next year. In fact, diamonds this year are in many cases selling for almost twice their cost a year ago, it is said. "We are glad to pay several hundred dollars more for the Jewel today that we sold it for in 1918." said he. "The lower priced good stones, selling for f-'.50. will be selling at 51,000 next, I think." The cause of the rising diamond market is laid at the door of supply and demand. Practically no new dla monds are on the market, it is ex plained. No diamonds are coming from prolific African fields, and the demand is very great in nearly every country of the world. Especially is there an Increasing demand for diamonds In Germany, say the t?ade papers. This would seem an astoundlnp situation when the economic conditions of that country is considered, but a very reasonable answer is given. Diamonds are email, ran be hidden, and they are absolutely ;r.fe investments. Centerville, Ind.

Princess Cecile, wife of the former her mother Repetition Of Strike Is Feared At Argo (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, July 9 Five auto loads of men were taken into the corn products refining company plant at Argo, a southwestern suburb early today in anticipation of a repetition of the outbreak there yesterday in which two alleged strikers were shot and killed and a score of persons injured. Captain Michael Foren of the Argo police department would not affirm or deny that the men taken into the plant were deputy sheriffs, but said that "more trouble was expected and that necessary steps were being taken to prevent it." The plant employs 2,000 persons, principally foreigners. About half the number struck for recognition of the union wages having been advanced recently. The trouble yesterday rose over a demonstration against a visiting nurse who was leaving the plant. Guards ran to her rescue and shots were fired. Later another similar outbreak occurred. F. M. Sayre, superintendent of the plant, said that the factory would not be run as a "closed shop," that operations would be continued with the force remaining and others would be employed as they applied.

The roads will be in very good shape when the repair work planned is completed and mo6t of the box approaches were in good condition, the postmaster said.

"Unless these boxes are replaced with the proper kind within a short time, I shall report the names of the owners to the postoffice department and instructions will be forthcoming to suspend delivery of mail to those homes which do not have proper boxes," said Beck.

TREASURY SAVINGS CERTIFICATES TO BE OFFERED BY U. S,

Plans for the handling of the new government securities, the 1100 and $1,000 treasury savings certificates were announced today by Postmaster Beck. These new securities are isfued, according to Mr. Beck, to take .he place of bond issues, and the treasury department is relying heavily on them in its future financing program. Postmaster Beck described the treasury savings certificates as combining the best features of the bonds pnd the war savings stamp. "In my opinion." he said, "these new securities will prove more attractive than either the bonds or the war savings stamps." Plan? provide for the sale of $100 certificates at postofflces of the first and second class, and $100 and $1,000 certificates at authorized incorporated banks and trust companies. The certificates will be in registered form and known as treasury savings certi ficates. The name of the owner w-ill be inscribed on each certificate. The $100 certificates will be sold In July lor $33X0 and increase In value at the rate of twenty cents a month. The $1,000 certificates will, cost $836 in July, the price increasing to reach $846 in December, the last month in which the 1919 issue will be on sale. This issue of savings stamp certificates will be made more in the form of a bond than has heretofore been available, and will be a more convenient means of investment for persons rble to put the designated amounts into this for mof savings. The rate of Interest on the new certificates will be the same as on the smaller $5 stamps, approximately 4.62 per cent annually if held until maturity. January 1, 1924. If the buyer finds it absolutely necessary to redeem them, ten days' notice is all that will be required to turn them into cash, 3 per cent interest being paid for the time held.
