PNEUMONIA DEATH
RATE INCREASING
Public Health Service Says 10
Per Cent Of Mortality Due to
This Cause.

Ten per cent Of all Of the deaths IN
the United states result from pneu-

II is estimated that during the past

Tuberculosis and heart disease, each
causing one-ninth Of all fatalities, are
the only diseases which outrank pneu-

steadily increasing, and has surpassed
the mortality from tuberculosis.

GENERAL HARVEY TO
PPEALTOCONGRESS
FOR D. c. ARMORY
WI Appear Before House Com
mittee in Interest Of Home
For National Guard.

Members OF the Chamber OF Com
merce, the Board of Trade. and sew
eral other civic organizations Will APP
near before the House Committee on
Public Buildings and Grounds tomorrow
with Gen. W. f. Harvey commanding
the District militia, to urge upon the
committee the necessity of providing
for an adequate armory for the Dis
trict National Guard at this session
of Congress.
II is the desire OF President Wilson
and Secretary Garrison to have
model National Guard armory erected
In Washington, General Harvey has
been informed. And 1t is also the
that this armory contains just the
features that are to be Incorporated
In armories erected in various sec
tions of the country. that will make
them of great educational value.
Will Push Matter.
The Chamber Of Commerce commit
tees on schools and on National GuarI
have both shown an interest in the
armory proposition and will help
push the matter through Congress.
The school committee Is Interested
because 1t expects to see incorporated
in the plans provisions that will en-
able the high school cadets to utilize
the indoor rifle range, the drill halls
and varyious other parts of equip
ment in the larger military education
planned for the cadets
The. history of the movement for the
construction Of an armory In the Dis
trict dates from the organization Of
the militia in 1887, but up to the pres
ent time no armory has ever been built.
In 1905 Congress authorized the prep
aration OF plans for a model armoIy
which were twice prepared and submit
ted. In 1912 the Senate twice passed the
bill providing for the erection Of an
armory, but the bill has never been
passed by the House
1.-THE armory is greatly neded-how
greatly it Is almost impossible really to
estimate" said General Harvey in dis
cussing the proposition The progress
Of the organization is retarded and the
The Washington times., 1916-02-01

spirit Of the officers and men dampened
by the failure To recognize their neeus
and provide for them"
Favored BY Wilson.
President Wilson has Endorsed the
plan because he Is the real commander
Of the District National Guard. The
organization in this city is the only
national guard organization that -
under the direct control Of the Preel-
dent, as is the regular army IN
other States where national guard OF
ganizations OlisF Of the same relative
military efficiency as the District or
ganiEatJn, ample provision Is made IN
the I'm of armories for the housing
OF t,e organizations. In some States
the armories are among the handsom-
est public buildings belonging to the
States. 1t IL the hope Of the people
supporting the bill that will be taken
up In committee today to have a model
structure erected in Washington.

A huge pile of commissions upon the

awaiting transmission to President
Wilson for signature brought out the
fact that during this week the Presi-
dent has signed approximately 1.a00

an inquiry among officials whose duty
it is to take care of the commissions
and correspondence signed by the
President as to the estimated number
OF times he signs his name to govern

in the course of = year. and some
mighty interesting facts were revealed.
According to the estimates by Of

about $4,000 times a year. Those who
have watchedshim and have computed
the time taken in the actual writing of

are YOU going to give your offspring the
rearing you got in the old-tiIne home

Prof. Benson expressed regret at the
frivolous and meaningless manner in
