r PLACE FOR HOMES
Berlin May Relieve Housing
Situation by Renting
Buildings
Berlin, Oct. 30.—There Is a wide
spread demand that the former
royal and princely palaces and cas
tles of this city be utilized to allay
the need of dwellings during the
coming winter by renting parts of
them to people in need of homes.
Mayor Wermuth has sent a telegram
to the Imperial Dwelling Commis
sioner calling his attention to this
situation.
The Commissioner, In reply, says
there are In Berlin only six of these
buildings, that are large and
notable.' Of these, the formgr Em
peror's palace, in which troops were
housed for some time, will be oc
cupied by state employes as rapidly
as its rooms are vacated and eventu
ally will be made into a museum
for works of art.
The Marstall, the formerly royal
stables, also has been occupied by
troops but will be turned over to
the city of Berlin for administra
tive offices.
Montbijou Chateau was and is a
museum and its big hall is used for
trials. The palace of Crown Prince
Frederick is being used by the gov
ernment for an exposition of mod
ern painting and as headquarters
for the "Safety Police."
Thepala9e of the Crown Princess
Cecilie is occupied as private resi
dences rented fromi the government
and has a few military bureaus in
one section.
Charlottenburg castle has been
used since December last as an
orthopedic hospital, except the mid
dle section, which is extraordinarily
artistic and historically valuable.
The palace of Prince August Wil
helm Is rented to two state bureaus
and its library is used for chari
table purposes. Bellevue castle now
houses state and government au
thorities.
The finance ministry which has
been seeking space in some of these
palaces has found that all the avail
able room had been taken as long
ago as last March.
Dr. Voronoff Urges
Cold Storage For
Glands of the Body
Paris, Oct. 30.—Establishment of
municipal cold storage plants in
which alleged life-giving interstitial
glands could be kept on ice to sup
ply the demand for renewing human
youth is advocated by Dr. Serge
Voronoff, said to be the originator
of the operation.
"If removed from the body of a
hopelessly injured man while he is
still alive, certain vital organs, es
pecially the interstitial glands, will
live for weeks in iceboxes," said
Voronoff.
Japanese Abolish Most
First Class Railroad Cars
Toklo, Oct. 30.—The government
has abolished first class cars on all
railroads except for long distance
journeys. The railroad officials have
been shorn of their brilliant gold
braided uniforms and swords. All
this is a movement in the demo
cratizing of life and the abolishment
of special privileges.
According to the newspapers, Pre
mier Hara requested a first-class
car to go to meet Baron Makino
who was returning from Paris, but
the railroad board refused the re
quest.
SWEET SUBSTITUTE FOR SUGAR
Washington, Oct. 30.—Malt sugar
syrup is a brand new sweet which
has arrved on a commercal scale
a.t the psychological moment to re
lieve the sugar shortage, say the
specialists of the Bureau of Chem
istry, United States Department of
Agriculture, who have investigated
various substitutes for sugar. In ad
dition to being a sweet, malt sugar
syrup has a delicious flavor some
.what resembling that of honey,
which adds much to its aalatability
and value as a sugar substitute.

Governor Smith
Attacks W. R. Hearst
New York, Oct. 30. —After Wil
liam Randolph Hearst, publisher,
had declined a challenge from Gov
ernor Smith to engage in public de
bate, the Governor appeared lost
night in Carnegie Hall and charged
that the publisher's papers had at
tacked him because he had refused
to let Mr. Hearst tell him what to
do as chief executive of this state.
Reviewing his political record, Mr.
Smith defied Mr. Hearst "to mention
a crooked act that I ever performed,
in public or private life." Asserting
that fact in Hearst paper attacks on
him had been "gravely distorted,"
Governor Smith charged that these
papers were adding to the Nation's
difficulty in suppressing the "spirit
of unrest" and were making it diffi
cult for the Governor ti handle the
situation.
Many Germans Want
to Come to America
Berlin, Oct. 30. —The newly-in
stituted National Emigration Bu
reau is being bombarded these days
by Germans who want to get out
of Germany—to any old country in
many cases, anywhere except Ger
many. The great majority express a
desire to go to America. The bulk
of the'large crowd that constantly
throngs the quarters of the emigra
tion bureau consists chiefly of in
dustrial workers who can find no
sufficient employment here in Ger
many.
The coutries to which Germans
can emigrate at present include Ar
gentine, Brazil, Paraguay and Pata
gonia. North America is yet barred
and Mexico, because of the unfavor
able political conditions, is counted
as undesirable. •

BATHS REFITTED
FOR SOLDIERS
Famous Resort For Million
aires of Europe Used
as Hospital
Bucharest, Oct. 30. The famous
salt baths of Salsburg, where the mil
lionaires of Austria-Hungary and
the Balkan states used to spend their
summers, are now curing rheumatic
Rumanian soldiers.
Stripped of all their luxurious fur
nishings during the war, the Sals
burg baths have just been refitted
with the aid of the American Red
Cross for use as a military hospital
for chronic rheumatism resulting
from trench warfare. Five hundred
soldiers are already there, recover
ing from rheumatism and similar
diseases contracted while undergo
ing the hardships of war.
In times of peace, thousands of
tourists visited Salsburg, high up in
the Transyivanlan Alps, southwest
of Kronstadt. Many came tpr the
daggling social life. With its mag
nificent hotels and gay casino it was
perhaps the chief show place of
eastern Europe. When the Germans
pushed ( the Rumanians out of 'this
district * early in the war, General
Mackensen and his staff took posses
sion of the town and staged luxur
ious revelry there. When the Ger
mans left they looted the place,
stripped the hotels of tapestries, fur
niture and brass fittings. Even the
equipment for the medicinal baths
was wrecked.
Under the direction of Major
George C. Treadwell, of t Albany,
N. Y., and several American physic
ians, the baths were refitted suf
ficiently to care for the soldiers.

Depends upon your ability to look ahead. Millions of dollars of real money have been
put in the pockets of lot purchasers, who a few years ago had the vision to see that Harris
burg was growing rapidly and who brought lots in the path of its expansion.
DO YOU. REALIZE that new industries coming to Harrisburg have created such a
demand for housing people as has never been known in the history of any city? Every
available house in the city is occupied, and to rent a home is out of the question. Harris
burg can expand in only one way—that is through iU suburbs. Colonial People solve the
probleih for you. > ,
.You are dealing with the actual owner of the property, not agents, and we refer you
to any bank or business house in Harrisburg as to our financial responsibility, integrity,
fair dealing and general reputation.
The layout and street arrangement has been approved by the City Planning Com
mission of Harrisburg.
The title to Colonial Park is perfect and is guaranteed.

Airplanes, Senate
Discussion Shows
Wasl ling ton, Oct. 30.—The United
States cannot now muster three fight
ing squadrons of airplanes in the
event of difficulties with Mexico, and
the prospect is that within 18 months
the Army will not have a single
fighting plane in shape to take the
air. ,
Furthermore, the United States,
despite the millions on millions thnt
were spent on airplanes during the
war, will soon be in exactly the sit
uation with respect to Army aircraft
that it was in on April 6, 1917.
These remarkable things in regard
to the Army aircraft situation at
this time have been brought out ill
the Senate debate on an aircraft
appropriation of $15,000,000, which
was put into the pending deficiency
bill by the Senate, but was stricken
out by the conference because the
House conferees said that the House
would never consent to such an ap
propriation.

MANY KINDS AND
COLORS OF MONEY
Change .Hands in Big Quanti
ties at Budapest Curb
Exchanges
Budapest, Oct. 30. Many kinds
of money are in circulation in this
city. Blue money, that is, the money
of the Austro-Hungarian Bank, is on
hand in very limited quantities. Then
there is good white money with a
ten per cent, discount, and bad white
money that is worth only one-fifth
of its face value. Finally, there is
green money, the five crown notes
of the State Savings Bank, with a
thirty per cent, discount. Curb ex
changes have been formed where
these moneys change hands in great
quantities.
Budapest, where earlier a news
paper appeared every hour is living
almost without newspapers of its
own. The people satisfy their curios
ity from the Vienna papers which are
sold on the streets by thousands.
They were forbidden for a time but
now have been released, and the
news vendors make tremendous prof
its and get four and five crowns for
a single copy. The theaters that
have reopened are crammed full.
Budapest is slowly beginning to
recover and come back to life, un
der the protection of the Rumanian
bayonet..
