Who Owns Bullets . : War Victims Carry ; Abound in Bodies .... .. . 1 ' , '. .- : (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) BERLIN. Jan. fc Th . question, to whom does th projectile In th body of a wounded soldier belong. Is discussed gravely bg. Court Assessor Langa In th German Juristic Magaxtn with q ar ticle declaring the ownership ot such missile to reside In ths state. - A bullet, he says, is not an ownerless tibject "The soldier who sends it on Its way does not thus surrender" his state's ownership ot It. His object la merely to do as much , damage- as h can. and It must be assumed that h intend to r obt&la possession of th tnlssU thereafter for recasting or other possible us. If. however,. It be assumed that th state originally owning th projectll gives up It ownership by. tiring It 'away. It does not even then belong to the man un lucky enough to get In its way, but to hla state, under international Taw and th law of prises of war. "Th wounded man possess the missile only aa the representative of tbe state of which he is a subject." writes Ifarr Lang. ' The question of bullet ownership ap pear to have arisen first In a Bulgarian hospital during the Balkan wars in 191S. A quarrel arose between a wounded sol dier and a suraeoa. both of whom laid clartn to an extracted bullet. Kerr Ilach- eaberger, well known Gorman Jurist, considered the subject -Exhaustively at th lme. but althout .coming to a defi nite conclusion, xcept Insofar as to de cide that the missile did not, in any case; belong to Uis surgeon. . Professors Franks and Ziltelinana, also noted ter man jurists, considered ths subject In th following year. Both reached the con cluolon that the projectile belonged to the soldier. - .

Lower Auto Prices 'Leads to Danger of : Cheap Production .-. . - t ' .' ' The most vital development of the last year la tbe automobile Industry, so far as th public . ia concerned 1 th very material reduction In price t, .

"The transition to lower prices has. however, raised a danger signal that the buyer should not fall to heed v alertly," says L B. Noyes of the Klsaol Motor Car company.! "This lies in th tendency en the pert of some manufacturers to cheapen their product In order tp list It at a figure below those competitors who have gone as far In price reduction as at business method and maistena.no of quality will allow.
