count of the failure OF Congress to

paid This fact has cut the enroll
ment down very materially. There
are about 1900 men now in training.

at their posts On the island. In gener.
al there are two Officers and three
Don-commissioned officers in charge

REMARKABLE POWER OF
WATER FILTER CALLED
TO MAYORS ATTENTION

An apparatus small enough to be
contained in suit case, yet potent
enough to purify 100000 gallons OF
water, has been received by the new
Bureau of Sanitary Engineering in the
University of California, according to
a clipping from a San Francisco paper
which has been sent to Mayor Lane
by J. Morton Riggs, cashier of the
Pacific Guano & Fertilizer Company,
for, consideration.
The clipping says; According to
the scientists who will inspect this
new device, its use in the bay cities
would have prevented at least three
serious epidemics in past years. 1t
is an apparatus with meter which
regulates the chlorine discharge into
water and without altering the color
or taste of the water is capable of de-
stroying all the inimical bacteria"

Chambers OF commerce in every city
where night schools are conducted
have been formally requested by the
United States commissioner OF educa-
ticn, p. p Claxton, to cooperate IN
the America First" campaign OF the
bureau of education to increase the
school attendance of non-English spea-
ing immigrants. Officials of the bu-
reau believe the most effective way
of impressing the immigrant with the
advantages of learning English Is
through the employer
In 1910, 6,58S,71 foreign-born whites
were employed in the various indus
tries and lines of business activity.
Until the war started, this number was
added to very greatly by immigration
at the rate of million year. Over
1.462,134 adult males, most Of whom
are wage-earners, do not speak Eng
lish, and consequently are an added
problem to industry in the administra-
ton and management of plants.
Industrial establishments all over
the country last year rendered CO.
operation in the Americanization
movement started by the bureau
through the distribution of the Anne
rican First posters. Many manufac-
turing plants reported increased eff.
cheney in their immigrant employees,
VIXEN the latter had learned English.
Others submitted figures tending TO
show decrease in accidents among
those learning the language. One
large muslin goods plant produced
diagrams and data showing gradually
increased wages to immigrant girls
who were making themselves liter

Enlistment, which is located in New
