16 THE SUNDAY OREGONIAW, PORTE AND, DECEMBER 28. J 010. OF CENTERS IN BERLIN Atmosphere of Depression Grips German Capital. AMERICANS FALL VICTIMS low Kxrhange Rate Keeps Business Down; Even VcH-to-lo Worry Over Making Li-ving. "CIyight by the Mew York World, l'ub- lunea Dy Arranfcineni.j BERLIN, Dec. 27. (Special cable.) Berlin is fast becoming the gloom center of the globe. Vienna ?s dying Kracefully, but Berlin is just going to its end stolidly, worldly, unplc turesquely and uninterestingly, steeped in gloom. Many visiting Americans have fallen victims to the all-pervading atmosphere of depression after the first few days' novelty and inter est have worn off. Many American business men who arrived full of pep and breezy op timism, expecting to make a quick cleanup and get away, have found it impossible to do any business at all with Germany at the present low rate of German exchange and with the general unfavorable conditions. Others have been held here weeks longer than they ever expected to stay and keep hanging on here, hoping against hope that conditions for doing busi ness may improve. Americans who have come to Berlin to scout and in vestigate German conditions almost invariably have gained a pessimistic viewpoint. Berlin Food "Worse Again. Nature has abetted the general gloom by providing nearly two weeks of continuous dark gray weather. Berlin's food, too, has waxed worse again and The Oregonian cor respondent has met quite a few Amer icans recently who have complained of stomach and intestinal troubles. "Berlin is as cheerful as a funeral," said one American visitor recently, and transient Americans Invariably display enthusiastic joy at the pros pect of a speedy departure. While Americans who have nothing to worry about except to get a pass age back home are affected by the heaviness of Berlin's atmosphere, the gloom of most native Berliners is so thick you could cut it. Berlin is a joyless burg. Even the alleged places of amusement are short of the joy of life. The Fallals de Danse and what remains of Berlin's once famous night life are sad and sorry shows. Poverty Pronpect Loom. Berliners with any money to spend still left In their jeans are acutely depressed by the passage of innum erable new tax bills, including heavy capital confiscation, which threaten to reduce millionaires to the honest protelariat. The prospect of practi cal poverty clouds all moneyed minds. Still soaring, the high cost of living also causes depression, and even well-to-do Germans are worrying over the hopeless problem ot making both ends meet. Most Berliners realize at last that hard times have come to stay and their view is that the near future will be black. PLANS FOR PERSHING LAID .l M Kt. TO ARRIVE IN PORT LASD JAM i:Y 18. H. B.

When Beau doin refused, the man attempted to jump down on him. but Beaudoin made a quick sidestep, evaded the as sailant and started up the street full speed.

At the end of half a block the two highwaymen, one afoot and the other In the car. overtook the man. closed in on him and threw him on the sidewalk, where they proceed ed to go through his pockets. A quick search disclosed $! in cash, which the men appropriated. When they, got down as far as the vest pockets, where his watch lay. Beau doin made a second break for liberty, wrenched himself free and scurried up the bank into some bushes, where he dropped flat on the ground and waited while the men beat the brush In an effort to find him.

Dane Hubbard, acting director of the health department's bureau of industrial hygiene, today described the nature and effect of wood alcohol as follows: Wood alcohol Is a color less liquid and in a highly refined state has but a slight odor and no taste. The Jess purified form pos sesses a nauseating odor. While it is tasteless, it does, however, produce a burning sensation. Its legitimate uses are as a fuel, as a solvent in varnishes, and as a denaturant. that Is, as an agent Jn making grain alcohol unfit for drink ing purposes. It is also Improperly used in the preparation of hair dyes and tonics, toilet waters and flavor Ing extracts, as well as medical prod ucts by some unscrupulous druggists The symptoms produced on taking wood alcohol are the following: Nausea, vomiting, violent headache, vertigo, coma and amblopla (blind ness), of varying degrees. The chemical formula for wood al cohol Is CH30H. It is chemically known as methyl alcohol, sometimes as wood alcohol. Technically it known as Columbian snarits, standard wood spirits, coloniaT spirits, union spirits, eagle spirits, Hastings spirits and acetone alcohol. The mode of elmination Is by the lungs, kidneys and skin. The small est dose known to have had disastrous results Is one consisting of two ten- spoonfuls, the result being total blind ness. Another instance Is that of five men, each of whom consumed a tum bler full. Of these two died within 24 hours, one lost the vision of one eye and was partially blinded in the other and two recovered, due possibly to the elimination of the po.son by vom. iting. Of 720 cases recorded at Baskerville, 490 died and 90 became totally blind. In 85 cases vision was impaired, 6 to 10 becoming blind temporarily, and 31 recovered. No results were statistic ally given in 100 cases. The mortallty in terms of percentage is thus about 33 per cent, total blindness 12 per cent, impairment of vision 13 per cent and recovery 4 per cent. INCOMING SHIPS WATCHED Regulations to Prevent Intoxicants From Entering U. S. Are Rigid. WASHINGTON. Dec. 27. Stringent regulations were issued today by the treasury to prevent Intoxicants from entering the country from ships arriv ing from foreign ports. Liquors properly listed as sea stores must be placed under seal by the boarding officer of the customs ser vice and kept sealed during the entire time of the vessel's stay in port. No part of such stores may be removed from under seal lor any purpose while the ship is in United States waters, the regulations state, which denies to foreign crews the ration cf wine served with meals on some ships under other flags. J5jLCMiiva Uauor storoa, n longer being dutiable, are subject to seizure. Liquors properly carried may be returned to a foreign port in the ves sel changing from the foreign to the coasting trade, or may be transferred under supervision of the customs of ficials from a vessel in foreign trade, delayed in port for any cause, to an other vessel of the same line or owner. Customs officials are not greatly concerned over the possibility of smuggling large stores of liquors Into the country and the new orders are believed to close the last hole through which Intoxicants might reach domes tic consumers. With all liquid re freshment under seal, it was said, there would be small opportunity for "bootlegging" to becarried on around the wharves.

CIGARS ARE ALSO ENJOYED Fair Parisian Diner Emulates Ex ample; Women Attempting- to Keep Pace With Men. (Copyright by the New Tork "World. Pub lished by Arrangement.) LONDON. Dec. 27. (Special Cable.) Mrs. Mabel Walenn of Wlllesden Green, London, may not be the only woman pipe smoker in England, but up to the present time she has the distinction of being the first publicly to boast of it and give her reasons for doing so. Tobacconists say that pipe smoking among women is on the increase, even more so than the cigar habit. Mrs. WaleDn takes exceptional pleasure in her briars and her cala bashes. "I average about four pipes a day and a cigar in the eVenlng with my husband over a game of chess," she told The Oregonian correspond ent. ' "I have smoked pipes and cigars for many years. I don't care about cig arettes. I have colored several cala bashes and possess two pipes by a well-known maker. My last, a straight cut. is a beauty. All my friends know I smoke, and as I have eight brothers-in-law, I don t come off badly for cigars. If It came to a choice between no pudding or 'no pipe,' It would certainly be "no pud ding.' "My husband gives me at Christmas not presents of chocolates and other dainties, but a box of cigars and s nice briar. It Is Impossible. I think to beat the cool, sweet fragrance of a pipe, and my present favorite is a fine curved briar. I smoke the ordi nary medium mixtures, and with a pipe In my mouth find I can do my household work much better." Mrs. Walenn, who is a woman of splendid physique. says smoking never affects her health. She smoked her first cigar wherr 14 a half-Inch cigar of her father's. "It had no ill effect upon me and I have been smoking ever since. I do not limit myself and I smoke most of the day." The first time Mrs. Walenn lit a cigar In a London restaurant she says she was asked to leave. She was con tentedly puffing a calabash when the photographers and reporters called on her. Some French women are making a big attempt to show fthe men that they refuse" any longer to be consid ered of the weak sex. They tried this in the war, when th'ey proved they could do a man's work. In peace time they are trying to prove they can also equal & man in his pleasure. They have taken up all sorts of athletics. Many French women smoke as many cigarettes a daj" as any man. One recently showed she was able to smoke a cigar without' any ill effect. Now one has come forward to prove she can smoke a pipe and smoke it well. She made no attempt to con ceal the fact, for she chose a fash ionable Parisian restaurant to give the display. Men looked at her surprised, but they did not dare smile. 1000 EMPLOYES Al BALL OREGON CITY WOOLI.N MILLS HOLDS ANNUAL Al FAIR.
