The army regulations bearing on
the subject have been amended so
as to provide that whenever 1.-THE Star
Spangled Banner" is played by the band
on formal occasion at a military
station, or at any place where persons
belonging to military service are
present in their official capacity, all
officers and enlisted men present shall
stand at attention, and if not in the
ranks, they shall render the prescribed
salute, the position of the salute being
retained until the last note of the Nat
ional air. 1t is also provided that the
same respect shall be observed toward
the national air of any other country
when it is played as compliment to
official representatives of such country.
Whenever IL. S.ar ~ ~r-..,.c1 E:--....c -:.
is played as contemplated by the army
regulations, the air will be played
through once without repetition of any
part, except such as is called for by the
musical score.
Secretary Shaw is becoming nervous
over the risk he is running in not having
fire-proof steel files in which to place
the Official bonds in the Treasury, repre-
senting penalties aggregating almost
billion dollars. In order to avoid SUBJ
jecting the Government to the en-
barrassment and loss that would come
from the destruction of paper of such
value, the Secretary has requested of
Congress an immediate appropriation
of $500 for suitable fireproof steel
files for the safe keeping of these official
bonds of which there are now on file
some 10000. About five years ago one
steel file was provided but that accom-
odated only 1O, 900 bonds, the remainder
being filed in ordinary wooden cases
which are always subject to destruction
by fire. The request of the Secretary
is imperative and should receive prompt
attention. But by the time it passes
through the maze of red tape at the
Capitol, Congress will have adjourned
before action is taken.
