A greyhound chases an electrlo Jack

Dog racing has long been prevalent

Here lies a spendthrift who believed
That only those who spend may
keep;
Who scattered seeds, yet never
grieved
A failure who might well have risen,
Yet. ragged, sang exultantly
That all success Is but a prison.
And only thoce who fall are free:
Who took what little life had given.
And watched It blaze, and watched It
die:
Who could not see a distant heaven
Because of dazzling nearer aky.

refinance the Van Sweringen properties.' For this his bank re

stock, and in two weolts time, fork over the money.
What would any banker or individual do under the oir

This is precisely what Morgan did. He sold as much stock
as possible to people of money and influence, knowing that the
money would help, and the influence (with their friends in get

To have unloaded this $25,000,000 on the open market in two
weeks, would have been fatal. It couldn't be done. So he
wrote to his friends and people he knew had money, and asked
them if they didn't want to get in on the ground floor.
They DID, to the tune of $8,000,000 in cash. The Morgans
handled the $17,000,000 balance themselves.

For Instance, frank appeals to
prejudice and hate were Indulged in
by attorneys for the defense with no
other possible purpose than to pull

case. VllnfKilion of certain Med

COFFEE GROWER
Fear U. S. Biggest Coffee
Customer, Will Assuage
Thirst With Brew From
Hops Instead of Berry
By PAUL SANDERS.
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) What
ever beer's return means to the
United States, It has put another
wrinkle In Brazil's 'brow.
It Is taken for granted here that
beer's comeback there will cause a
slight reduction In coffee consump
tion because the American takes his
coffee with his meal rather than after
It, and he Isn't likely to drink beer
and coffee at the same time.
Any reduction in American coffee
consumption will be felt, because the
United States is the biggest customer.
The coffee problem causes as many
nightmares as ever.
Huge Surplus In Sight.
World production for the next crop
year Is estimated at more than 13.
000,000 sacks above world consump
tion. Since Brazil, the largest pro
ducer, holds the bag for most of the
excess stocks, 13,000,000 sacks plied
on top of 31,000,000 on hand at
the beginning of 1932 means an ex
cess load of about 4,500.000.000
pounds.
The newspaper A Nacao goes so far
as to say that Brazilian coffee is in
danger of suffering a collapse simi
lar to that which sucked dry the rich
Brazilian rubber trade 30 years ago.
Overproduction, Increased compe
tition from other producers, .and val
orization schemes which served only
to burden Brazilian coffee and en
courage rival producers, are held re
sponsible. Mortgage Problem Acute.
Coffee growers, like American farm
ers, acquired heavy financial burdens
In boom years and are in serious dif
ficulties. The government has pre
pared a decree to ease mortgage pay
ments over a 10-year period.
But the coffee growers, unlike the
American wheat raisers, are burdened
with stifling export taxes, necessary
to finance government control and
pay off coffee loans amounting to
9150,000,000.
As a result Brazil has been unable
to undersell competition sufficiently
to force reduction of foreign produc
tion and at the same time pay grow
ers a fair return.
A suggestion for suspension of the
coffee loan service, so as to permit'
Brazil to drive Its competitors back
to pre-war footing, has been advanced
but such a drastic step has not been
considered by the government.
