The man who builds, and furnishes, and decorates, and equips a hotel, selects, by the way he does those things, his public. The public for which Hotel Pennsylvania was built and is operated is made up of those discriminating travelers who want the best there is when they go to New York. Hotel Pennsylvania is the New York home of thousands of just such people. This largest hotel in the world (2200 rooms, 2200 baths) has many special features which emphasize its thoughtfulness for your comfort. The unique "Butterfly Room" (a glass-enclosed sun-toom on the roof) is one of them; the two complete Turkish Bath establishments (one exclusively for women), each having its own swimming pool, are others; the equipment of every bedroom with the "Servidor" (an ingenious device which eliminates con tact with servants at your bedroom door) is another. And there are many others which you will quickly appreciate. In Pennsylvania Station give your bag to a Red-Cap and take elevator to Lobby of Hotel Pennsylvania—without going out-of-doors.

Much of the cloth has been manu factured in Roubaix and Tourcoing. In producing it the government au thorities undertook a difficult task, as many French manufacturers had been stripped of their machinery by the German invaders, money was scarce, cotton and wool trebled or quadrupled in price and those em ployed in the manufacture demand ed for a day's work wages they would have been glad to accept as a week's pay before the war. Kill Strike Leaders, Then Troubles in Russia Always End London, Nov. I*s.—The Commun ist government at Petrograd has a rather primitive but exceedingly effective method of settling strikes within its confines, Paul I>ukes, a j | British secret agent, told The Asso- | | ciated Press. They kill the leader I I and without leaders probably no workman in tlio world is so helpless as the Russian. "Labor leaders involved in a strike have employed many ingenious methods to hide their identity but a largo number of them have failed and have been seen no more," Mr. Dukes said. "When a strike is called the Communist government tries to find the hidden leader. In most cases he finally is ferretted out and some morning the strikers awake to find their leader gone. Without their organization they are ineffective and generally go back to work under worse conditions than when they left." Says Forests Should Yield More Timber New York, Nov. 15.—American forests are capable of yielding five times as much timber under proper cultivation as in their natural state, according to Dr. Hugh P. Baker, dean of the New York State College of Forestry at Syracuse, in an ad dress here before the convention of the American Paper and Pulp As sociation. To accomplish this re sult in New York, he said, the State should bond itself, if necessary, to protect and encourage its forest in dustries, as has been done for better highways and a great barge canal. HUNS FEAR FOR TRADE SECRETS Fear That Dye Industry Will Become Known to the Entente Cobleiu, Nov. 15.—German busi ness man liuve been worrying more than usual recently for fear their trade secrets will become known to the Allies through "the gap in the west," as the occupied area is called. According to information reaching the headjquarters of the American forces in Germany, there is a feel ing of uneasiness among the German business men that numerous trade secrets, including the dye industry, which Germany has alwuys carefully guarded, may become available to foreign concerns through the visits paid to German factories by Entente economic missions. Recent instructions published by the Interallied Rliineland High Com mission provide that no obstacles shall be placed in the way of com mercial and other missions authori sed by the Allied and associated governments entering German fac tories "with the owners' consent." These instructions confirm the rights provided by the armistice to search" German factories for mate rial taken during the war from the invaded regions of France and Bel gium and for the supervision of factories by the economic sections of the armies if there should be reason to believe that war materials are being produced. Bricklayer Claims to Be Heir to Rich Scottish Estate Edinburgh. Scotland. Nov. 15. John Kackstraw, a bricklayer, claim ing to be heir to a rich Scottish es tate, has began an effort to obtain possession of ten square miles of land with an annual rent roll of $150,000. The estates concerned are now the property of the Lennox family of Dumbarton. The claimant alleges that he can trace his ances try to 15S1 and that his great-great grandmother was a deuecdant of Douglas, sixth Duke of Hamilton, and a nephew of Mary Queen of Scots. EAJIRIBBURG TELEGRAPH GERMANS HAVE MORE MONEY Circulation of Paper Currency Shows Increase, Berlin Bank Reports Berlin, Nov. IB. —The Dresdener Bunk of Berlin states that circula tion of paper currency in Germany amounted to 40.12 5,000,000 marks on September 23 last, as compared to 2,200,000,000 marks in peace times. The bank estimates that 15,000,- 000,000 marks of German paper money is held abroud and that about 25,000,000,000 remains in Germany. German industry, according to the bank, has been held in check by the revolution, political unrest, strikes and unwillingness to work. Many firms and industries .are said to have been able to keep going only by using their reserve funds. The unfavorable status of the mark in the world exchanges is at tributed to the flood of German money that has gone abroad to pay for imports estimated at 1,000,000,- 000 marks since the revolution. . At present the bank sees a tendency toward a decrease in the number of strikes and toward an increase in coal production. Droughts Are Big Problems in Brazil Itio tie Janeiro, Nov. 15.—One of the most serious internal problems with which the Brazilian govern ment has to deal is that of relieving the population of three states in northeastern Brazil from the effects l of periodic droughts. These states —Ceara, Parahyba and Rio Grande de Norte- —have a combined area of 91,250 square miles and a popula tion of approximately 2,000,000. It is officially estimated that, since 1877, more than 1,000,000 persons and an untold number of livestock have died from hunger and disease as a result of these droughts. In a message to the Brazilian con gress, President Pessoax has called attention to the situation. He asked authorization for the government to arrange loans, either domestic or foreign, amounting to about $lO,- 000,000 a year for a period of not more than five years, for the pur pose of constructing reservoirs and irrigation canals in affected region, and for supplementary projects. Railroading in Siberia Is a Different Task Omsk, Nov. 15.—John P. Stevens, of Chicago, administrator of the Trans-Siberian railway, has experi enced difficulty in his efforts, with the aid of an interallied committee, to convert the Trans-Siberian rail road into an efficient railway system. Seven months have now elapsed since he became its administrator. One of the most serious obstacles he encountered was the unsur mountable objection to modern methods of railroading, on the part of Russians in places of authority. The system of car distribution has proved a stumbling block which precluded any marked improvement in carrying capacity. If it were pos sible to conceive one of America's great transcontinental systems with local committees in each State tra versed, committees of politicians in no manner identified with the actual railway management, vested with authority to distribute freight cars as they choose without any control' by the railway management, one might find a parallel with the actual situation in Siberia.
