Rev. Mr. Heine reports that consid-

among the natives under the super-
vision of the Japanese. Most o! the
Germans, he reports, left voluntar—

when the war ended and the islands
were,put under Japanese mandate.
Now there is only one other white

is an Australian. .l‘hcre are no
hotels and no motion picture shows
' and no amusements, and the roads
are more pathways not more than
eight feet wide, but between the
plantations and the Jungle.
“No, the South Sea Islands are
not exactly as painted by the ro-
5mancers," said Dr. Heine, “as far
'no comfortable living is concerned.

“Lilo in the South Sea Woods is

Dr, Heine, "and there was one per-

when for more than a your the in-
habitants were without newspapers
from the outside world. There lied
been stories circulated in Sydney
and other quarters to the street that
the Germans had prepared elabor-

bases in some of the South Bel. 1s-
lands. For this reason the Japanese
and other Allied powers prohibited
the islanders from any communica-

were allowed to stop only for the!
purpose of landing provisions. We
heard vaguely about the w'sr from

Death Signs Stare
At Reckless Drivers
CHICAGO. Oct. 9 (AP).—-"One
was killed here."
FiVe hundred oi! these grim signs
have been placed on Chicago streets
in the campaign against further
deaths of children from automo-
biles.
There were 545 deaths from auto—
mobiles in Cook County for 258 days
this year or an average or more
than two a day. Many of these trag-
edies involved children as thousands
of Chicago's youngsters have no
other place to play but in the street.
In 1923, the year before the signs
were erected 602 were killed in Chi-
cago by motor cars. in 1924 there
were 664 deaths. This year‘s tors:
is expected to mount to much high-
er figures.
