Italians Regard Using
Own Language Patriotic
(By Associated Press)
ROME. May 5.—William Shakes
peare is William Shakespeare in near
ly every country of the world, no mat
ter what its language, but in Italy
he is Guglielmo Shakespeare, just as
George Washington is Giorgio Wash
ington. This is because of the grow
ing nationalistic feeling among Ital
ians which makes translation of all
foreign proper names into Italian a
corollary of patriotism. No nation or
language is excepted.
All names of historical personalities,
living dignitaries, titles of books and
famous phrases, mottoes and axioms
I of all sorts are Italianized. In this
i connection, Italian newspapers have
had a distressing time with the re
cent American presidents, names like
Woodrow and Warren having no near
relatives in Italians. They have re
paired the damage to some extent,
however, by frequent misspellings.
GERMAN PRINCE APT STUDENT
(By Associated Press)
POTSDAM, May 5.—Prince Louis
; Ferdinand, second son of the former
Crown Prince Frederick Wilhelm, has
shown a tremendous capacity for his
work. About two years ago he wag
ered that he could learn Spanish with

1 verse in that language.
Louis Ferdinand, who is 17 years of
age, went to work secretly. A few
months later a Spanish diplomat was
invited to tea and the young prince
| surprised his family by conversing
i fluently in Spanish.

HELIGOLAND ENTIRELY
STRIPPED OF ITS ONCE
POWERFUL ARMAMENT
(By Associated Pres3>
HELIGOLAND, May 6.—Inhabitants
of this little wind-swept island which
has been converted from the status
of a fortress and submarine base to
that of a peaceful district of fisher
folk, who follow entertainment of sum
mer visitors as a side line, have been
wondering of late how the great
change which has taken place here is
going to affect their business. The
outer entrance to the harbor has been
completely blocked, as part of the
scheme of dismantlement, and render
ed useless for all but fishing smacks
and small pleasure boats bringing
summer tourists from the continent.
The work of demolition, carried out
under the peace terms by the Inter
allied commission of control, is said
to be the largest task of this kind
ever attempted, and with the blocking
of the harbor entrance again warships
of all kinds the job has been brought
to a conclusion. While this work was
in progress great numbers of visitors
arrived from spring until fall to wit
ness the different phases of transmis
sion, but writh the blasting away of
the fortifications at an end, the great
guns taken down and melted into j
peacetime implements, the inhabitants
feel that the public generally will lose
interest in this one-time island arse
nal which the Germans took 24 years
to equip at a cost of approximately
$85,000,000.
Nearly 200,000 cubic yards of con
| crete and brickwork were demolished
! in the harbor w'orks, 60,000 feet of
drilling w'ere carried out and about
300,000 pounds of explosives used in
the operations. Demolition of the
fortifications was accomplished by
cutting up the numerous guns by
means of oxy-acetylene and oxydiydro
gen flame by the burning of holes in
the gun turrets as a preliminary to
breaking them up by explosives by
drilling and blasting and removal of
the concrete gun emplacements, and
the destruction of extensive under
ground chambers which served as an
enormous storehouse and where the
German gunners lived.
The terms of peace stipulated that
the work should be done at the cost
of the German government bw the aid
of German labor. Now' that this has
all been done the inhabitants say they
feel much more happy and contented
than formerly, when the great guns
pointed their noses out toward the
sea. However, there is much uncer
tainty because the tourist business
fell off considerably last year, and in
dications that there will be fewrer
sightseers than ever during the ap
proaching season.
Miracle of Red Sea Failed
Repeat for Zulu Tribesmen
(By Associated Press)
CAPETOWN, Mar 5.—That we do
not live in an age of miracles has
been proven again, this time by a
tribe of Christian Zulus. About 50
members of the tribe attempted to
repeat the miracle of the Re.i Sea
on a flood-swollen river in Zululend.
They wave drowjcd.
The party had attended a tribal
gathering and were returning to their
homes when they found their path
obstructed by a overflowing river.
It was determined to ford the liver
and the party knelt down and pray
ed. Then their leader advanced and
struck the waters with an iron rod,
commanding the waters to open and
allow them to pass. The whole par
ty then advanced into the water, and
were lost.
LEFT WINGERS URGE LLOYD
GEORGE INSERT PROHIBITION
PLANK IN HIS PLATFORM
LONDON, May 5.—Left wingers
are trying to get Lloyd George to in
sert in the Liberal platform a prohi
bition plank believing that the time
is ripe for an action. The Welch
man feared by liquor interests has
been trying for some time to con
vince the public that the economic
recovery is being thwarted by the
liquor interests in Great Britain.
Anyone who doesn’t believe the
world is getting better should read
this and be convinced of his error:
“News butchers” have been banished
from Norfolk & Western trains.

English College Rowing
An Expensive Sport
(By Associated PressJ
OXFORD, Eng., May 5.—Everything
in this country seems to cost about
twice as much as before the war,
racing boats not excepted. The Ox
ford-Cambridge boat race cost the
two university clubs about $15,Q00,
just about double the prewar outlay.
A racing shell could be built for
about $325 previous to 1914, but they
are now $650 apiece. Oars also cost
now $10 each, compared with $5 be
fore the war.
The actual implemnets of the race
form only a small proportion of th&
total expenditure. Although no al-^
lowances are made to the crews
while in their university quarters,
from the time they start for the tide
way course their respective boat clubs
pay their traveling, lodging, food and
other necessary expenses, which runs
to about $7,500 each for Oxford and
Cambridge. There is no revenue ta
offset this sum, as the boat race
is an entirely free show.
During the past three month*
Chicago broke all crime records, with
108 killings, 28 of which were class
ed as justifiable homicides. In the
same period 155 died in motor acci
dents.
James Dunoon of Hull England,
finally proved his sanity and was re
leased after seven years in a lunatie
asylum.
