' LONDON, Oct. 29.—London waiters
have been added to the long list of war
profiteers and their medium for goug-
ing is the food coupon. Unless one
carefully watches his coupon' book he
will lose enough of the precious tick-
iets. at one meal, to last him‘ for a
week.
Most restaurant managements have
a riile that. the waiter cannot remove
a meat coupon— it must be done by the
cashier—and the coupons will not be
Eaccepted if clipped by the customer.
lVery few cashiers take too many cou-
~
'IDOTLS but they disappear during the
trip of the waiters from the customer
lto the cashier.
; The stolen coupons are used to ex-
tract good tips from strangers who
. have not been in town long enough to
:get a coupon book. Meat is ordered
yby the silauger, the coupons demand-
ed, the lack of coupons explained and
‘ then conic; a hint that it may be ar-
. ranged without the coupon. .If the tip ‘
i
,is satisfactory. the meat is produced.

l When Herbert Ballard. of 113
Wentworth street, Bridgeport. went;
to police headquarters yesterday. the
mysterious disappearance of Miss
l’carl Beckwitli. of this city. was clear“
ed up. '
Miss Becktwith, who is about eight-g
eeii years of age, was taken from lili‘
Industrial school some time ago by
Al r. and Mrs. Frederick A. Scofield. of.
96 1-2 South Main street. and a home}
was provided for her.
About six weeks ago the police were
notified that she had disappeared;
from the Scofield home and no trace'
of her could be found. A thorough
search by the police also failed to find
any trace of the girl.
Yesterday, however, when' Ballard:
arrived at the police headquarters he:
askedcthat he be allowed to procurel
the wearing apparel of Miss Pearl‘
neckwitb. whom he claimed was now
his wife and living with his at the
above address in Bridgeport. i
