Melancholy days for mel- ancholy tourists, ) The boats no sooner start to dump their cargoes of vacationists at Cher- bourg and Havre, than hundreds of them begin to count the days until they sail again, Many are the tour- ists who never surmount the obstacle of tuning in an Americah ear on a French tongue. Take any group of 100 tourists and more than half of them are ready to go back home, and the sooner the better. Many of them have dreamed for years of a trip to Europe, have digested hundreds of pounds to travel literature, or have skimped to meet the fare. But the minute they get away from home, they find that there was something to the slogan, and that, after all, there's no place like it, tourists Yon can'see dozens of standing like lost sheep outside the American Express Company, just be- hind the Opera, before the doors of the steamship companies and in the lobbies of the, American banks, They have seen Paris and its suburbs by auto-car in three days and are ready to go home, Whys and Wherefores They have their troubles, as fol- lows: Inability to make: the language grade: Can't get use to currencies, Don't like this foreign cooking.

German, American, Austrian and French scientists have been collab- orating with such effectiveness that a voyage by rocket to the moon, to Mars and to Venus at last is considered theoretically possible. But the astronomers have not yet reached the point where they con- sider the advisability of inserting a passenger into 'the rocket--even it they found such a willing pe~ son. The entire question of interplan. etary navigation, which has been the preoccupation of Central Euro- pean scientists for many years, reached a climax at a meeting of the Societe Astronomique, when Rep-Hirsch prize of 5,000 francs was awarded to Professor Herman Oberth for his researches in this fleld. Professor Oberth, who is a Ger- man and only 35 years old, has de- veloped what are 'considered en- tirely feasible methods of escaping terrestial attraction of gravity. The problem up to the present has been how to escape this attraction and yet not make the experiment pro- hibitive by excess load of fuel. Professor Oberth has solved this problem by constructing a double- tube rocket, emitting hydrogen and other gases at a speed of 2,600 miles a second. This speed of emis- sion of those gases and the effect of the gases upon the surrounding at- mosphere are calculated to neutrals ize the pull of gravity and permit the rocket . to get clear of the earth, In view of the {importance of this "contribution, Andre Hirsch and Robert Esnault-Pelterie, them- selves ' pioneers in 'interplanetary navigation, and donors of the prize, increased the award to 10,- 000 francs.

T0 RID MEXICO OF DRINK EVIL President Portes Gils Ap- peals to State Gov- ernments Mexico City, June 19.--President Portes Gil's campaign to rid Mexico of the drink evil has gained such mo- mentum that it has become one of the chief topics of discussion throughout the country and one of the principal subjects of legislation, The president's appeal to state gov- ernments to second his endeavors has met with ready response in the form of orders restricting the sale and consequently the consumption of al- coholic liquors, as well as regulating the number of saloons. Governor Raymundo Enriquez of Chiapas has ihstructed the state trea- surer to establish so heavy a tax on intoxicating drinks that their manu- facture will be unprofitable. This measure, in addition to discouraging manufacture of liquor, is calculated to oblige the saloons to charge prices beyond the reach of the average man, The Newest and Least Expensive Orthgphonic Victrola Model 4-30 Dn our Easy Payment Plan, of course! SHAWA 'Enjoy your home... MORE" Governor Enriquez also has order- ed that the saloons be forced to pay increased taxes, hoping through this means to cause many of them to close, Furthermore, he has prohibited the sale of intoxicants on ranches and farms, many of which employ hundreds of peons. Similar although less stringent mea- sures have been adopted in other states, and the War Department has prohibited sale of liquor to soldiers. The Government of Mexico City has placed a ban on sale of liquor in dance halls and has notified cabar- et proprietors that they will no long- er be allowed to employ waitresses, Anti-alcohol leagues have been formed throughout Mexico among mothers, teachers, school children and workers, and lectures on the evils of the drink habit are being given in theatres, the schools, union headquart- ers and other public assembly places.
