BERLIN WOMEN
JQMENJN ,
FOODRlOTlNG

Battle with Police and
Loot Shops in Ger-
man Capital ——— Re-
ports of Trouble in
I Other Districts

lilinLlX, Oct. 13.——-\i'nmcn joined
with unemployed nln-n in food riots
in two of the most congested dis—
tricts of Berlin today. They shouted
that they were without citllL-r poin-
tocs or meat, and demanded that
they be given food or employment.

The police attempted to prevent
the raiders from looting butcher and
Vegetable shops. but the mobs over-
run them and Clt‘uned out some of
the places. Many of the plundcrcrs
were arrested.

The demonstrations were due to
the tremendous advances in the pric—
es of fuel and everything catuble in
the German capital, and the increas-
ing failure of wages to keep pace
with the advances in the cost of
living. Lack of employment. too. 1:3-
a. potent factor in the situation that
seems to be driving the German
workman rapidly toward revolution.

Profitee'rs in food and fuel are be-
ing denounced in the press. They are
accused of increasing the distress of
their countrymen by piling up the
prices in an effort to meet the soar-
ing exchange rate of the dollar.

So many thousands have been un-
anc to pay their rapidly mounting
gas bills that the courts have ordered
the city gas works to continue to
supply gas regardless of payment.

Reports of similar food demon-
strations come from Solingr-n, linen:
ish Prussia. ’Weisbaden. in Hesse-
Na§au and Cologne. In Solingen the
police fired on the rioters and
wounded several.

The mob broke the Window‘s of
sho s where they thought exorbi-
tan prices were being charged tor
food, after holding mass meetings to
denounce profiteers. , ‘

DUSSELDORF, Oct. 13.——Pursu-
ing a policy of negotiating directly

presidcnt of a chemical corporation
and resident of Asbury Park, N. J..
at the Sound Bench home of Mrs.
ill“, 31. Leslie. a widow and former
actress, irccnwich authorities have,
reached these important conclusions:

A rival of Mass, who is in clan-
gc'rous condition in Stamford hospi—
tal from stomach wound, for the
affections of Mrs. Leslie. is a New
York man of national prominence
in big business and social circles.

Letters writtcn'by him to MLrS.
Leslie, couched in the most aficctiong
ate terms. have been examined by
police. His name is temporarily
withhold because of the tremendous
sensation it would cause if made
public. explained the police.

Five Bridgeport men, said liy \lrs.
Leslie to he "prominent." in that
city_ are directly concerned for the
moment in the investigation or the
shooting. , '

They met Macs and Mrs. Leslie
the night before the shooting in a
roadliouse in Stamford and were in:

It is definitely established 'that
the revolver attack wasiQperpeti-atcd
by three gun-men- expressly hired
‘for the slaying of Mans. By Whom or
(or what reasons are still puzzling

Miss Doris Carr. who was in fifth
place when the standing of the con-
testants in the popularity contest
was made public at the end of the
first period, now stands first, accord-
ing to the list published below,
showing the standing oi“ the con-

period of the contest.

Miss Faye A. \VOl‘tll)’ who was
seventh (in the first list is'now’ sec-
ond, while Miss Jennie Bodwcll,
‘who was the leader on October 10,
has dropped back into third place.

Perhaps the most notable ad-
vancement was made by Miss Emma
Davis who has jumped from the
eighteenth to the fourth place on
the list. Miss Marion M. Kerry,
twelfth on the first list, is now in
fifth place.

The list given below shows the
standings of the contestants. Ac—
cording to the contest officers the
contest will be very close. Only a
few votes separate one place from
the other, and apparently not many
votes will separate first from last.

The second period closes October

pcriod.must be in the hands of ~.he
contest manager by that date. They
may be mailed or left at his office
in the neeroscm building, 20 North

The votes received during the first
period, and placed by the contest
manager in the windows of the Bon
Ton shop_ \N'ashlngton street, are
still there. To the woman guessing

exact number of coupons in that
