Metropolitan Sewage
Board Urges Trunk Sewer
to Clear New York HarbOr

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-According
to the findings of the Metropolitan
Sewage Commission, which put it's
preliminary final report in the hands
of Mayor Mitchell last week, together
with a suggestion for lettering con-
ditions, there are 765, 100000 gallons
of sewage dumped into New York
harbor each day, and of this only
about per cent. is carried off by
the water, thus making the danger
to Manhattan and Brooklyn from
this source a grave problem. The
commission finds that the excrement
in the waters of the bay would daily
fill up Broadway, from Bowling Green
to Grace Church, to a depth of 1e0
feet and would fill the Flatiron build
ing every twenty minutes.
The commissions methods in max
ing their experiments upon which to
base their report have been thorough
and careful, and aside from confer
ence, among members of their own
body, they have called in experts
from other States and cities who
have dealt, successfully, with sewer
problems. They have used floats for
over two years to find the exact ma
ture and effects of the currents in
the bay, and have been out in tugs
with all sorts of instruments, study
ing the effect of the sewage on the
water.
The commissions report states that
the present dumping of excrement
into the bay causes almost perpetual
fermentation and endangers every
thing in and about 1t. Their new
plan calls for a central trunk sewer
at Rockaway. pumping underground
to Barren Island, where there will be
purifying plant, from which the
sewage will be pumped into the bay
thoroughly harmless.

Janet Richards Furnishes Gray Matter to
Society Women at Handsome Prices
Noted Woman Lecturer Keeps
Clubs Abreast of the
Times.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Nothing
is ever scheduled for Monday morn
ing in Washington-nothin fashion
able, that is. Club and church COM
mittee meetings are set for some other
time, and it Is the dullest period of
the week in the shops of the fashion,
able modistes and milliners. Every
Monday morning the feminine portion
of the capitals smart set turns out to
hear the news of the week told by
Janet Richards. 1t is a custom of
sixteen years duration.
You might call Miss Richards a
human newspaper. Her business is to
read the news of the world, sort out
in her capable and. energetic brain
what is vital in national life and re-
tail it weekly to 1900 society women
in Washington, Baltimore, Philadel-
phia and New York.
Supplies Gray Matter.
She supplies brains to women who
are too busy or too indolent to use
their own, or who haven't any to use.
And, as in any business which sup
plies brains to those able to buy that
rare commodity, Miss Richards makes
the wealthy pay heavily Tor the use
of her brains. Each week her lecture
rooms are crowded twelve times at
admission prices which would do cred
1t to an operate prima donna. This
exceptional Washington woman has
been able to capitalize the ignorance
of smart society and to use 1t for a
niche in which to carve out a unique
and highly lucrative career.
Most people read newspapers and
magazines so carelessly and with SO
little discrimination that they mis-
take the chaff for the wheat in the
news" said Miss Richards to me just
after she had concluded an exhaust
ing hour and half before a COM
pany of half a thousand wives and
daughters OF senator's, cabinet officers
and other public men. "They devour
the details of the latest crime OF
scandal and skip entirely the really
important news, such as the prelimi-
naries in the framing of a new tariff
or the activities of the money trust
investigation.
TT is my business to sort out from
the news the things that are worth
while, and the things which women
newspaper readers ordinarily skip,
and to point out their significance to
my pupils.

Says Physicians Figure
Too Much in the Lay Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-That many
members of the Medical Society of the
County of New York are figuring too
frequently in articles in the lay press
was declared in a report read at a
meeting of the organization and unan-
imously accepted last night.
1t has been found, the report stated,
that some of the articles are written
by physicians themselves, others by
lay authors, and the majority have
the physicians pictures. showing them
at work in their offices, laborato cries,
clinics or hospitals. Although some
are designed for the publicity of an
institution, or deal with modes of
treatment, they all have a tendency
to exploit individuals.

Steel Industry a Good
Business Barometer.

The Journal has previously referred
to the, steel industry as q good indi-
cation Of the present or prospective
condition Of business.
When steel il active. business gen
erslly is likely to be good When
there is little doing in the steel mills.
the business OF the country is not
likely to be what we want II to be.
These reflections are prompted by
a reading OF the report OF the United
states steel corporation for the year
1913. This report shows an increase
in production, earnings. and number
of men employed as compared with
1919, which latter year was regarded
as . good business year.
Despite the fact that the opponents
OF the democratic administration have
been bowling calamity for more than
a year. the official figures OF the
business OF the Steel corporation do
not bear out the gloomy forebodings
of these prophets of evil.
The United States steel corpora
tion showed last year gross earnings
of $7s6. ,2s9 as against s745.5o5, SIS
for 1912, an increase of s51,3ss. 1884, In
1913 the corporations subsidiary
companies mined STA per cent more
iron ore, mined s3.55 per cent more
coal, and quarried s.49 per cent more
limestone than in 1912.
The number OF employees in 1918 to-
tailed z2S.906 as compared with 221,-
052 the previous year. The salaries
ana wages paid last year totaled
s2o7, zoe. 500 in comparison with $780,
Ssf,s02 the previous year. The aver
age salary or wage paid employees per
day was 1855 last year as against
sass the year before.
The prospect for a largely increased
business in 1914 Is good, and, If we
have good crops as well, general pros
perity viii be in evidence everywhere
before the year is out.
So far as Pensacola is concerned,

PROF. LANE WRITES
ON SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT

Editor Pensacola Journal.
During the past two weeks several
people have urged that I write for The
Journal an article giving my views
and impressions of Pensacola's school
system and suggesting what improve
ments might be needed and how they
might be brought about. am glad
to do anything I can IN the interest
of Pensacola's schools though I do not
believe that just at this time I should
give my views of the school system
Of the city nor should just now make
any detailed suggestions for the i'm
provement Of that system. There seem
to be some fundamental propositions
that should be well understood by the
people OF Pensacola before suggestions
from any one would be regarded very
seriously by the people at large or
would meet with the consideration
necessary to bring about any needed
improvements.
am glad, though, OF the opportunity
to present the propositions I regard as
fundamental in attempting any i'm
provements In the city's schools, and
should like later to make some spe-
cifcally remedial suggestions. for dur
ing my nearly nine months residence
here I have given some attention and
thought TO the whole school problem,
and much OF it necessarily, because the
whole school situation here affects ma
teriaIly Pensacola high school, Of which
have charge, and in the welfare OF
which am rather much interested. I
believe, therefore. that Pensacola peo-
pie will understand and appreciate my
motive In writing this article, especial
ly since, in view OF the fact that there
have recently appeared in the columns
of The journal q number Of communi-
cations on one phase or another OF the
school situation, many people regard II
as my duty to do what I can to help
those who wish to see better schools
In Pensacola.
These communications I have read
with great interest. I believe they re-
feet, to some extent at least, the views
of a large number of people. In many
particulars these views reveal that
there exists in Pensacola some dissatis-
faction with the present school situa-
ton. And this, as a matter of fact,
IL a healthy sign; it means that the
people are thinking-are coming into
that state Of mind which, in American
life, usually makes for constructive
progress, and am persuaded that they
will accept, after due consideration.
the propositions I shall present as fun
damental to any Improvement in school
conditions.
U) Close observers Of American life
state that throughout our whole coun-
try the people are rapidly coming to
the conclusion that the conduct of the
schools is the most important function
OF government. Not only does the
