COUNTERFEIT MEN
RAVE LOST SKILL
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, May 14
*-■Although counterfeiting Is on the
ftxJrea'se the general workmanship
on counterfeit notes Is inferior and
U not Oo difficult to detect, accord
ing to W. J, Moran, ehicsf of the
UnKcd (Staton sccrot service, who was
In Salt Lake 6lty recently.
“The inferiority of counterfeit
notes," Mr. Moran said, "is largely
due ibo the use of now pnoto-mechan
ical iprocessos which for the most
part are being Wandlod by amateurs.
Years ago, baforo these processes
camo Unto use, the operations re
quired much skill."
There Is not so much counterfeit
ing at coins now, according to Mr.
hlblUn. This, he said, was due to
the ifotat that during the war the
prfea at metals soared and is ntill
tilgh enough to make this production
unprofitable
Whtlo noto raising and chock forg
ing has on used the secret service
much trouble ’in the past few years,
JIt Moran declared not much money
had *boen realliod in this manner be
cause raised notes and bad checks
aro so easily dotcctod and sup
pressed.

WARJTARTED
War Declared Against Sum
mer Fashion, Purpose Is
to Save Wild Animals.
NEW YORK, May 14,—(By Asso
ciated Press.)—War is declared
against the fashion of summer furs,
which is expected to reach the peak
[>£ popularity this summer, in a cir
cular issued by the American Blue
Cross Society, with headquarters in
Springfield, 'Mass. The purpose of
the campaign is to check the slaugh
ter of fur-bearing animals, which
threatens total extinction of the wild
inimals if the craze maintains Us
present pace, says the society.
According to information giveh
jut by this organization the 1323
stylos will not be limited tq neck
pieces 'and trimmings for summer
wear as in former seasons. There!
will be entire coats of fur, and other
t-oats with fur trimmings to go along
with milady’s parasol and straw
sailor.
The society is seeking the concert
ed support of 'Social leaders and pub
iciats to put supper furs in the dis
card. The same body will be remem
Jered by its fight upon vivisection,
lalling for an "open door policy" in
ixperimental laboratories.
'One of the advanced coat styles
onsists of jet black monkey fur.
■ollared with American ermine. “Fur
aoquettes” will be in vogue, be
tides mole pelts having trimmings of
hlpmunk. monkey, fox and squirrel.
Phe Paris stylists recommend fur
rLmmed fans and sunshades.
The “call to.^pns’’ reads in part:
'Every right-minded person should
irotest against such monstrosities of
ashion violating the laws of health
and comfort, cauffipg wastage that in
volves needless sacrifice of fur-benr
ing animals, and perverting every
true sense of beauty and propriety.*’
