U. s. NAVY WANTS SECRET
 CHARTS OF COAST OF WORLD

Washington, Dec 15.-The need of more money with which to complete the American navy's chart equipment is urged in statement before the house naval committee here from Captain Thomas Washington, in charge of the naval Photographic of flee, in which emphasis is laid upon the fact that the British governments charting of the world is more com plete than that of any other nation. Speaking of the survey work of hie bureau, especially around Cuba, Cap tain Washington says he has mo doubt that had Admiral Cervera known of the channels we found down there, those ships fhis might not have gone in their anchorage and we would have no knowledge of how to get in there between those reefs.
 "The same," continus Captain Washington, "is true of other coasts we have surveyed. We keep such as we deem confidential; do not send them to other nations and similarly, I have no doubt that the British and other nations have many more con- l fidential charts than we have" But the charts that the merchant sailors use we send to other nations as com plimentary.
 i The navy department has advised the committee that the charts for which the merchant ships are clamor- ] ing, are most in demand for the Eng fish channel, North Sea, Straits of Dover, the North of Ireland and Scot land, the West French coast and Den mark, Norway and Sweden. The Navy's greatest chart emergency was ! for the vicinity of Eastern Mediterran- can and Turkey, which the department started in to reproduce and has most ly finished, knowing that if shut down of British charts occurred that is the part where the navy would feel the first blow"
 It also is pointed out that the Brit ish admiralty had agents in this country from whom American ships get charts and sailing directions and that it has detailed charts of ap- breaches to American and Mexican ports and for the Panama approaches.

late the evidence against the dangers to life in the community, dangers from contagion, from ways of living and from industry, and they must feel the responsibility to study this evi- dence and become leaders in the pro- gress of prophylactic medicine. The idle convalscent is of no more value in community than the bedridden and scarcely less expensive to support. It is not only charity and social ser vice, but also sound economy for a city to supervise convalsence; to make it such that the patient can return to his work the sooner. A city hospital of today must continue to give a com munity scientific care for it's sick and must afford opportunities both for scientific investigation and for the edu- cation of physicians, nurses and or derlies. But above all, it must, through it's social service work and through cooperation with all other community social agencies, give a watchfulness over public health and results that will result in more days of life, work and happiness to it's citizens"

47 ARKANSAS COUNTIES PRO-
 VIDE FOR DEMONSTRATION

Conway, Dec. 15.-Forty-seven counties in Arkansas this year have provided for farm demonstration work, in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture through appropriations by the quorum courts, and four others by private subscrip- tions. In all it is thought 60 out of 75 counties in the State will have demonstration work during the com ing year.
 The total amount levied by the courts for this purpose 49,000, dou- ble that of last year which was $23,000 with private subscriptions of S29,000. This year the private subscriptions will show considerable falling off, as the money allowed by the department for work under this method is limited.

APPROPRIATION BILL
 TOTALS $3S,744.753

Washington, Dec. 15.-"Economy was the watchword of the appropria- tions committee in the preparation for the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill, first of the big sup ply measures which is reported in the House.
 The committee Topped off nearly $2,00O,000 from the estimates submit ted by the various departments, cutt- ing salary allowances all along the line, and brought in a measure appro- priating $3S,744,753.5o. The bill pro vides for more than 16,000 salaries of government employees.
 The total of the bill shows an in crease of $1,12S,843 over last years measure But this years measure in cludes special appropriation of $2,- 2S6, 100 and authorizes 1000 additional employees for taking the agricultural census authorized by the law cover ing the last regular census in 1910.
 The committee in it's report says this is an extraordinary expenditure which will come once every ten years and maintains therefore, that this years measure is less than the last ap- propriation. The bill contains the us- ual provision cutting down the mile age allowance of members of Congress from 20 to cents mile. The fight to cut down the milage allowance has been on for years, and although the committee each year reports the re- duction in the bill it is defeated eith- CT on the floor of the House or in the Senate.

FUNCTIONS OF A CITY HOSPITAL

A pamphlet issued by the Depart ment of Public Welfare of the City of Cleveland deals with the history, functions and possibilities of the Cleve- and City Hospital. The following statement, copied from The Journal of the American Medical Association, indicates that those in charge of this hospital have clear conception of the invaluable service to the public which can be rendered by great municipal hospital if properly conducted: "A , municipal hospital is an institution Of organized society provided by a city to care for the sick. It is but medical means to social end, and this end-public welfare-must never De forgotten. The modern hospital has outgrown the narrow field of boarding and treating sick people and the tune has come when a proper city hospital can no longer passively re- ceiVe the sick from the community at iarge, without regard for the reason why they became sick, use them chiefly as material and often dis charge them without the slightest in-

building and proposed exhibits, and,
after some consideration. recommends
ed that the fair commission submit to
him statement setting forth the man
ner in which ii proposed to expend the
100000 appropriation made by the
last legislature.
The statement prepared and submit
ted by Chairman Wood set forth pro-
posed expenditures totaling $133,000.
as the Commission previously had fig
ured that ii would need that amount.
of which $4,000 was set aside for the
building. A consideration of this
statement by the governor brought out
that he desired not only a generous
pairing of this amount, but also a
change in the site of the building.
At a recent meeting of the Commits
sion, Commissioner John Hughes sug-
gested that the building fund be cut to
$4,000, saying that he believed SER
.yiceable structure could be erected
for this amount, leaving the balance
for exhibits Mr. Hughes suggestions
met with instant favor by the board
and it was decided to work along those
lines.
In the meantime twu prominent San
Francisco businessmen who were
visiting in Honolulu at the time, in
formed Chairman Wood that they be-
.lieved they could use their influence
with the exposition officials in secur-
ing a change in the site of Hawaii's
building. Their proposition was that,
as England was not going to make an
exhibit in 1915, the site originally in
tended for that nation might be seeur-
editor Hawaii.
The San Francisco businessmen left
shortly after for the mainland and a
few days after their departure Govern
or PinkhaIn approved the expenditure
of 100000, as outlined by the Commits
sion Chairman Woods visit to San
Francisco at this time doubtless will
decide definitely where Hawaii's build
ing will be located. and 1t is expected
that, upon his return, the Commits
sion's architect will have been in
structed to commence plans for $780,
900 building on new site.
Commissioner John Hughes said
this morning that, at the present time.
matters pertaining to Hawaii's part in
the exposition are going along smooth
ly and that no further complications
are expected to arise.
The San Francisco Chronicle OF
March says that E. |. Spalding, the
Honolulu banker, was recently taken
over the exposition site by w. d. Egil-
bert. commissioner of the California
building. In the party were number
of other prominent Honolulu business
men. Spalding's visit to the grounds
was in accordance with request OF
Governor Pinkham of Hawaii. who de-
sired report on the progress Of the
work.
