Solomon Ulmer, a Cleveland sank piesident, interested in a aew tuberculosis sanitarium at uos Angeles, picked a thousand ijames at random from the city directory. To each of these he .nailed a letter, inclosing a dollai sill.

Over 60( returned the dollar with at least >ne more, and 200 sent the dollai jack alone. The other 2(M) kept the dollar. This would indicate that four out of five are honest, and throe out of five both gener ous and honest. o The Federal Sugar Refining Company estimates that there will be a surplus of 435,000 f ns for 1924.
