FORGED NOTES
TAKEN UP
I
VIENNA, June 30 (by Associated (
Press).—With the rapid issue of new
currency, the country is recovering
from the panic that followed the dis- I
covery that enormous amounts ofl.OOO
and 10,000 crown notes were in cir
culation with forged overstamps. *
As there is no note between the de
nomination of 100 and 1,000 or be- j
tween 1,000 and 10,000, business be- ^
came completely paralyzed when the j
forgeries were discovered. No one
would accept the large notes. The
lotels and banks in taking them from j
clients took the number of the note
and entered it against the giver’s
lame. The 50 and 100 crown notes
?oon gave out and business was done
with tens and twenties.' The govern
ment redeemed the forgeries around
seventy. g
About 6,000,000,000 crowns of new ^
md 10,000 crown notes will be issued
:o retire the old ones.

MEXICO ROADS
DESTROYED BY
MEXICO CITY, June 30 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Twisted rails, decay
ed crossties and worn-out rolling
stock—products of a decade of revol
ution—militate against the efficiency
of Mexico’s railroads. No greater
problem of reconstruction faces the
country than the rehabilitation of her
railway lines.
The average speed of a Mexican
passenger train is 30 miles an hour.
From Juarez to Mexico, a distance of
L,235 miles, one has to 45 hours, run
ning time, exclusive of lengthy stops
it Chihuahua City and Torreon. The
shorter trip to Mexico City from
Nuevo Laredo; opposite Laredo, Tex.,
requires ten hours less.
Bandits in all parts of the country
nave wrought havoc with the nation’s
vilway system. Even today one can
see ruins of trains that were burned
lown by outlaws years ago. The
•oadbed likewise have suffered. De
vilments are frequent, being due to
he improper repairing of tracks
lamaged by mauraders.
