SANTA PUBLICIZED Of course, as might be expected in December, Santa Claus comes in for his annual share of publicity.

Inside thn cover "Santa Succumbs” and nobody knows just why. The December kitty Wampus will be laden with 96 Jokes, (the reader may guess what percent-sge ls of the exchange type, six poems dealing with every subject from nuts to the college dame, eight short shorts perlscoping humor. and six, more or less, feature stories, all bound into 32 paxes.

Passes Up $125,000,000 In Debt Payments WASHINGTON, Dec. li—(UP) —With the Hoover one-year moratorium scheduled for belated ratification by Congress late this month, tbe United States government tonight formally relinquished its technical right to collect $125,OUO,000 due Tuesday from 11 foreign countries as semi-annual payments on their war and postwar debts. The treasury, through undersecretary Ogden L. Mills, ou the eve ot the start of the moratorium's stormy course through Congress, confidently anticipated ratification by formal announcement that foreign payments were not expected. Sixty-eight senate voles and 276 In the house, mote than a mapor-Ity ln each case, were said by Mills to be pledged to support of ratification. At the same time Mills recognized tbe rising tide of opposition In congress by disclaiming any intention to couple the one year debt suspension with President Hoover's new plan to revive the world war debt commission for the purpose of making further temporary adjustments io pay-1 ments by foreign nations. GOLD STANDARD DROPPED BY NEW JAPAN MINISTRY Reapplication Of Embargo On Gold Made After Old Government’s Resignation. TOKIO, Dec. 14.—(UP)—Japan went off the gold standard today after installation of the new gov-ernment headed by Premier Tsuy-oshl Inukai. Th* premier presented his cabinet list to Emperor Hirohlto Sunday noon and then convened the new ministers, representing the Selyukai or minority party, for Its first meeting. When the meeting adjourned. Minister of Finance Koreklyo Taa-stsiiI said the government had decided on re-appllcatlon of the gold embargo, effective Immediately. The action had been expeofed since the crisis which forced the resignation of Reljlro Wakatsukt’s government on Friday and the repercussions abroad are not expected to be comparable to those that followed the recent action of Britain, the Scandinavian and other coun tries ln suspending the gold standard. The atwsp&per Mainichi said a certain business house, believed to be the Great Mitsui Interests, would profit some 40,000,000 yen (about $17,200,000) by th* embargo, due to purchases of dollars during the last month. It was understood the government had cancelled the permit of the Yokohama specie bank to export 30,-000.000 yen to America. This was done to keep the government's gold reserves above 500,000,000 yen, wliioh is necessary to maintain the required gold coverage of 40 per cewt of the currency issue. Competent sources expressed the belief that the Mitsui interests hsd merely exercised buelness acu men in buying dollars ou the contention that the gold standard could not be maintained after Great Britain suspended it. A certain section of the press, however, insinuated th* firm had aided in forcing the cabinet crisis in order to profit by suspension of the gold standard. DR.
