INFORMATION BUREAU
APPLIED TO BY MANY
Readers of The Star Use It to OBJ
tain Data on Variety of In
teresting Subjects.

The save your waste paper" cam
paign is on in force in Washington.
Unprecedentedly high prices for paper
and the national movement for thrift
have brought about a new attitude to-
ward the contents of the wastebasket
According to the director of The
Evening Star information bureau,
queries asking the price of waste paper
and old rags. and where they can be
disposed of. come in large numbers in
every mail.
This movement is not confined to
Washington alone, and the government
has taken cogniZance of it. The United
States Department of Commerce has
arranged with the chambers of COM
merce of different cities to supply in
formation as to the price ruling in
their neighborhood. Citizens of Wash
ington desiring to sell waste paper
can secure the current price by mail
from our information bureau.
A curious question coming to the in
formation bureau was that of a woman
who wanted to know the attitude of
the Russian people toward their chill
dren. She had heard that children in
Russia were treated with unusual
harshness. An inquiry instituted among
prominent members of the Russian
colony in Washington brought out the
fact that while the children of the
more ignorant peasants are often treat
ed with some unkindness. among the
middle and upper classes the attitude
of parents toward their children is
one of exceptional leniency.
