WEDNESDAY
England Facing Another Winter
With Unemployment on Increase
spite Efforts for Relief
Prediction Is Made That
“Pinch Will Be More
Acute” During the Cold
Months.
By NORMAN H. MATSON
yrl<M 1922. by the Sen Antonio Light
xmdon Sept. 20.— The government
forward to the coming winter
h anxiety. It will be the third
iter of widespread unemployment.
T. J. MacNamara minister of
»r has predicted that despite the
irts of local and national authori-
: to create employment “the pinch
I be more acute.**
Official figures record that 1555.-
people are now entirely without
k. This is only 72.600 below last
Member's lowest point. Moreover
figures do not include certain
tiler categories of unemployed.
K great proyiortion of these have
n out of work for two years many
them for a longer period. Govern-
it officials realize that bare statis-
i do not unfortunately express the
nulative effect of severe nneinploy-
nt lasting several years. Thousands
the workless have maintained a
ndard several degrees above sheer
jperdom by spending their savings
the prosperous war years. These
ings have now been exhausted
lets have been forced to pawn bc-
gings Fuch as furniture and clothes
w the pawn shops are full and
new empty. Those that started buy-
houses on war wages are now un-
e to keep up installment or pay
ir taxes.

Ddred and fifty millions of dollars

ee-fourths of which were contributed
employers and employes. Local
horfties have spent $300000000 in

T^OESN’T it mean good living at low cost? Foods that
are “short” in nourishing value and “long” in waste
are never economical.
The food Grape-Nuts is cconaraical to the last serving
in the package because every golden-crisp granule really
contributes to body-building.
Grape-Nuts offers the sturdy nutriment of wheat and
malted barley in unusually compact form—a comparatively
small amount providing exceptional nourishment. The 12-
ounce package contains about 16 servings —costing about
one cent each.
Every bit of Grape-Nuts is real food uniquely free from the
bulky waste found in many other food products.
Made from w hole wheat flour and malted barley Grape-
Nuts has the benefit of 20 hours baking which so modifies
the starch of these grains that easy digestibility naturally
results'.
Eaten with good milk or cream Grape-Nuts is a complete
food which creates energy without taking away energy.
And the gradual daily accumulation of power is the greatest
of all food economies since reserve energy is what counts
most cither in the sudden emergency or the long grind.
A fqod for economy—a food for health!
I ’ » r
And a food with a charm of flavor all its own.

markets" and guaranteed loans to the
extent of eighty-five millions for initiat-
ing public works.
This latter effort is to be extended
bv raising the maximum of capital in
respect of which loans will be guaran-
teed from the pi^sent limit of one
bundled and twenty-five to two hun-
dred and fifty millions.
Jobs costing fifty millions (road
construction and the like! will em-
ploy only about 100.000 men. Unless
an emergency program is adopted it
seems inevitable that 1100000 per-
sens will be unemployed through the
winter.
Organized labor wants direct money

road making and repairing a reorgan-

John W. Glenister the American
anti-prohibition propagandist is emit-
ting sparks from his big apartment in
.the Hitz hotel. Hfa technic to put it
mildly is not likely to shake the faith
of English tee-totalers. In fact it
would be difficult to imagine anything
more maladroit than the stuff he has
been peddling to the papers. He de-
scribed America’s prohibition as * 4 tbis
war baby fathered by the blue-nosed
Johnnies and the long-necked’ Annies.”
it has grown he added in his near
Broadwayese into a “brat dnd there
is no saying how many more brats
will come along if this one is not
smot’ cred.” And so on and so on.
His statistics are curios and as un-
convincing as his English. There’s
riany an honest admirer of Scotch-
nod-soda that is wondering if John
\V is not an agent provocateur for
the dries or something. He might
go in Tonopah but he is a frost in
‘hfa calm old town.
Booze is a terious problem here a«
It is in all vrhiakey countries too
serious to be discussed with silly and
vulgar epithets.

REES BECOME ANGRY
AND GET BUSY UPON
SMELLING PERFUME
Little Workers Regard Cer-
tain Odors as Distinct-
ly Offensive.
New York. Sept. 20.— Ever since a
bee census was ordered in Goshen N.
Y.. metropolis of the buzzing honey
makers tender hearted persons have
been shuddering at the thought of the
danger assessors might undergo in
plucking each bee from its workroom oi
den and counting it. But they might
as well stop worrying for W. E. Thorn-
dyke who knows bees from stem to
dreaded stern raid today that all the
census takers have to do is count the
hives. f
“If they did hare to number each
bee it wouldn’t be so bad*” he sai l.
”8on:e men could count them one by
one and never have to use a mask. Of
course a lot would depend on whether
the bees were aristocratic blueblotxls o:
hybrids. The hybrids are usually the
fierce ones. Still when it comes to
getting intimate with been discretion
is the better part of valor.”
Girls with perfume and men who use
hair oil. smelly pomades or scented tal-
cum better get out of the way when
ever they see a bee coming in. Mr.
Tborndyke says. He has a theorv that
the little honey-milkers just naturally
dislike certain odors. When a bee likes
an odor it noses right in to gather raw
material for its manufacturing plant
but it turns its bad; on disagreeable
smells. And when a bee turns its back
somebody is liable to experience discom
forture.
Bees have domestic troubles too. m l
these often put them in a bi 1 hunioi.
It is to nsc^tain how many of the bftbv
bees at Goshen are suffering from “foul
brood’ ’ami causing worry to their queen
and their pap bees that the census was
ordered.
Foul brood fa something like summer
complain among Luman infants but
more devastating. It comes from im-
pure food given during the period of in-
cubation.
The adult bees arc not bothered by
the disease as they thrive whether the
larder contains good or bed food. But
when the queen bee ge:< sick tlnn n»?
physical strain of weakness ultimately
affects the whole hive.
