"A Glance at Current Topics and Events
New Alps Railway Nearly Finished.

New Alps Railway Nearly Finished.
Spiez, Switzerland, July GA great
work is nearing completion in the
heart of the Alps which has been car
ried on during the past six years at
the cost of $20,0O0O0O and of many
human lives. This is the Bernese Alps
railway a line which, although but
forty eight miles in length, has his
tory going back some fifty years. The
chief canton of Switzerland Berne. long
cherished the idea of great interna-
tional highway which should run
through it's territory en- route from
north to south.
After many vicissitudes and q long
series of parliamentary debates the
scheme of line which should transact
the Bernese Alps was at last definitely
adopted in 1906, and the work was
started in the same year. 1t would be
no exaggeration to say that the build
ing of the Bernese Alps railway was
one of the most difficult railway engi-
neering feats ever undertaken. Not
only was it necessary to pierce tun-
mel through the immense masSif of the
great Bernese Alps range, but the line
on either side Of this nine miles long
tunnel had to be carried through wild,
precipitOus country, where the laying
of railway track was accompanied
by almost insuperable difficulties and
many dangers.
The new line starts at this city,
which is on the beautiful Lake of
Thun. and proceeds via Frutigen to
Kandersteg, where the northern portal
of the great tunnel is situated. The
first section of the line, from Spiez to
Frutigen. has been open for some time.
and here the trials of the powerful
electric locomotives destined for the
Lotschberg service have taken place.

Philippine Rice Increase

Manila. p l.. July G.-Rice produc-
ton in the Philippines is rapidly in
creasing as a result Of the supervi-
sion of the United States. and the indi-
cations are that the time is not far in
the future when the Filipinos will pro
duce all the rice needed by themselves.
Increased production Of rice in the
Philippines. due to systematic govern
ment efforts and encOura cement of ma
tive farmers by Philippine business
men, is affecting the archipelago's rice
imports through HOngkong. the value
of which fell from $G42 OBS in the first
quarter of 1912 to S436,393 in the same
quarter of this year.
The Philippines have been import
ing annually an average of about &c.
900 900 worth of rice. which the islands
can produce probably as cheaply as
the countries from which their supply
is imported

Washington, July Z. - "Veltldng.
which means world language" is the
name that has been given to the new
language which Professor Frederick
J. Braendle. official translator Of the
United States pension Office, has in
vented. 1t is in point Of fact uni
versalized English, but with new al
phabet and new numerical signs.
Veltlang is the development of years
of study, according to it's creator. This
is the way Professor Braendle argues:
Give thousand basic words cOnsti-
tute a thoroughly working. workable
knowledge of any language for COM
mercial or ordinary literary uses"
says Professor Braendle, land in con-
structing Veltlang l have taken 5000
of the words right out of English.
English is today the most broadly
spoken language Of modern times.
| Veltlang is English with it's spelling
| altogether simplified and it's grammar
| likewise. | am already carrying on
| correspondence with friends / have in
| terested in the new language. After
they have learned the alphabet the
rest is simple.
"The alphabet which l have invent
ed as the vehicle for Veltlang consists
of twenty letters. for which | use in
the case of all vowels curvilinear char
acters and for all the consonantal
sounds rectangular characters. Diph-
thongs and double vowels are single
characters. which are in reality com
binations of their original components.
Q. W, x, Y and z are in general prac-
tice eliminated in writing or printing
veltlang, but there is ready substitu-
ton for them in the written language
through the combination of the used
cOnsOnants."
Professor Braendle believes that in
choosing English as the basis Of the
forthcoming world language he has
taken the logical step.

An increase in the percentage Of

ton showing the relative freQuence Of
such deaths among various classes Of

the department Of health.
In 1912 5O4 cases were reported, with
81 deaths, mortality Of Ill per cent
and a case incidence of 9.S per 100000
of the population. In 1911 only 1913
cases We're reported, and there were
o deaths, case mortality of % per

increase last year occurred chiefly in
Manhattan. where the case incidence
rose from 90 in 1911 to IA per 1OO.-
600 in 1912 The department explains
that inasmuch as there We're many de-
laws of months or even one or two
