BRAZILIAN SOLONS ATTACK U. S. RUBBER INTERESTS If J AMAZON

. (By AsBoclated Press) . RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. 7. Activities of United State tubber interests .In the Amazon region of Brazil have been bitterly denounced in speeches before the Chamber of Deputies by three of its members during consideration of the critical situation through which the Amazon district is passing because of the low value of rubber. The speakers. Deputies Salles, Vailadares and Lacerda charged what they termed as the "rubber trust" of the United States with driving down the price of rubber, forcing the native planters from the field and then purchasing the plantations at very low prices. The government was called -upon for prompt financial assistance to prevent further control of the product by the United States interests. Threatens Nationality. , Deputy Salles. representing Amazonas, read telegrams from his state affirming that unless prompt governmental assistance was given, ' there would be a general closing down of business in the principal cities of the Amazon district. After stating that

the difficulties in the Brazilian rubber industry began in 1914 when the outbreak of the European war left North , American buyers alone in the field, Deputy Salles added: "Our nationality is threatened by purchase in small pieces. The rubber planter, losing in- , terest, is abandoning the plantations which the Americans are acquiring at infinitesimal prices, becoming lords of our son." The same charges have been made In telegrams from commercial bodies of the Amazon region and many of the : local newspapers are editorially condemning what they state to be the monopolistic activities of the rubber trust of the United States.

THOUSANDS IN INDIA SEE MOON'S ECLIPSE

(By Associated Press.) CALCUTTA, Jan. 7. The moon's re- ' lease from the jawa of a mythical .demon was anxiously watched and .1-rayed for by thousands of people i throughout India during a recent i eclipse which was visible here. Hindus ; regard an eclipse as the act of a demon called Rahu, who is believed to swal- ,' low the moon and then disgorge it. On the Howrah bridge across the Hooghly river, dense crowds waited for the first glimpse of the veiled moon; then with one voice cried out: "Isko Chhordo! Chhordo!" (let it go, leave it.') Before dusk, the river was kthrongrd with bathers, as bathiDg during an eclipse Is considered a soulpaving act. Beggars swarmed through the city, and it is a virtue to give freely on tho.ee occasions, they collected plenty of small coins.

TOOK EARLE'S HYPO-COD

TSTHEN the skating and tobogTT ganing season is here one always thinks of pert little tarns nd warm, woolly scarfs and sweaters. There are sets of sweaters, caps to match, scarfs and caps, or all three may match. Angora and brushed wool are favorites and many pretty color effects are seen.

White is always popular and always in keeping with bright pink cheeks and the snowy weather. Dark heather mixtures are much seen this season as well as plain browns, and blues and purples with block or stripe borders. It is very smart to get sweaters and scarfs which match or blend with the

pretty plaid, pleated skirts which every young miss of today has in her wardrobe. Browns and t&a or black and whiten are the favored colors in plaid skirts. "Here r.re two knitted sets which are very youthful and becoming and oromise to be verv comfortable against winter winds.

Chapter 70 I DROP FIVE YEARS "The trouble with VI," Helen went on, "is that she lets George see she adores him. And that won't do. It is all right with some men, but never with one of Bud Pearsoll's type." "Well?" "Well, the answer is that Vi must be nice to some of the other boys, and go about with them. It's an old bromide, but it always works this thing of making a man jealous." "A great many of them come around at odd times," I said. "And sometimes she does so out with one or more of

them. But she never encourages anjn

Now then, there's Toby Markham she likes him, doesn't she?" "Yes, probably best next to Bud." "Well, then, you must bring Toby about a lot, invite him to dinner when

Bud comes and sometimes when he doesn't, and I'll have him to do portraits of Vi." "But Toby's not an artist " "No, strictly speaking, he's a photographer. But he does what he calls camera portraits and makes an excellent income from it too. I'll have him do Vi in various costumes you know.

things in different periods, and some of those artistic out-of-focus pictures. He'd love to she's so pretty she'd make an excellent model." Helen went on planning, wrapped up in her new idea, and she stayed till late in the morning. "My word!" she exclaimed about half past eleven, "we onen the tea room at 12 and I'm not dressed. The cook will be in a fine state getting things ready without me." And off she went. But we followed her advice nevertheless. That is. I did. I did not tell V that I was deliberately bringing Toby Markham around to the flat, for VI was exceedingly honest, and she would have felt this was unfair to Bud. For once, I was more feminine and the greater coquette of the two. She posed, too, for some artistic carema portraits, somewhat to Bud's annoyance. And once, later in the winter, a picture she posed for took a prize and was used ns the cover illustration of a camera devoted to photography. "Are you going to faH in love with your little artist friend?' Bud teased one evening.

"No, of course not," Vi blushed a ' little. . I "I hear he Is nuite devoted." j "From, whom?" . i "Oh, from Helen, who Is always of great pains to let me know when you have Ffn Ivm." Bud lausrhed. but.
