Faked Antiques
Crowd London Shops
London, Doc. 28.?The methods by 1
which thousands of persons are cheat- 1
ed annually through the sale by deal- 1
era of antique furniture, draperies
and porcelain which are "faked,' j
were shown recently when an antique
dealer was brought into court ,
charged with fraud.
During the trial it was declared
that dealers sell thousands of pounds
worth of antiques every year to American
tourists visiting England, and
that probably less than five percent of
the purchases are real.
The methods of .the antique dealers
in faking their wares are carried out
so skillfully that the experts differ
widely in their opinion of many of
the pieces brought into court. The
fnvnrit? nvntnm of the crooked deal
or is to obtain a genuine antique of
a certain period, for instance a chair.
This he will take apart, and reconstruct
a number of new chairs of the
same design, each one containing n
section of the original chair. It was
shown during the hearing that an
antique bedstead had been taken to
pieces, and that the 12 duplicates
fashioned in accordance with this
system have sold for $5,000 each.
In faking china the work is more
difficult. Here the dealer must make
copies conforming minutely to the
original and bearing the makers
signature. This requires a skill
which few persons possess nowadays
, and which easily baffles the experts.
It is estimated that sixty percent
1 of the antiques now being shown in
, T.ondon are not what they are rep'
resented to be.
A. R. A. Ready to Send
Clothing to Russia
New York, Dec. 29.?Reports from
Russia to the local headquarters of

To meet this emergency the organ'
i sat ion has inaugurated a clothing remittance
package which will clothe
1 an entire family *for the winter.
1 Twenty dollars sent to Administration
headquarters in this city will
' equip and deliver a package to anyone
in Russia. Several thousand
banks and other organizations in the
United States have agreed to receive
jthe money for these remittance-}.
'Through an arrangement with the
Soviet eovernment the nackatres will
be delivered free of duty and at the
greatest possible speed.
Economic Program Before
