HOW INSANITY HAS GAINED
Census Taken by National Com
mittee for Mental Hygiene.

Insanity i'm the United States is de-
cidedly on the increase. This fact is
revealed by reason Of a census taken
of the insane, Predetermined, epileptics.
inebriates and drug addicts by the
National Committee for Mental Hy-
giene. Analysis of this census Is found
In the Mental Hygiene. 1t was COM
piled by Horatio NJ. Pollack, statistici-
an Of the New York State Hospital
commission, and Edith M. Furbush.
statistician Of the National Committee
for Mental Hygiene.
The federal census bureau estimates
that the increase of population from
April 10, 1910, to January l. 1917, was
11.SO per cent. The same government
agency found in 1910 that the number
of insane In institutions was 187,791.
The census taken in the present year
revealed 234, O55 insane persons In in
situations. Thus the increase In the
insane In institutions during the cOrre-
spending period was 24.64 per cent. u
growth more than double that of the
general population.
Moreover, the rate Of increase of the
insane In institutions was relatively
greater than that Of the general popu-
latiOn in every state except Arizona,
Kansas. Mississippi, Nevada and South
Carolina. Illinois Is one Of the states
in which the disparity between growth
Of population and increase in insanity
has been greatest. In this state the
population increase was 9.84 per
cent, as compared with percentage
Of increase of insane In institutions Of
27.38. The neighboring state Of Indl-
ana shows an even greater disparity,
with percentages Of 4.64 and 27.44 re-
spectively.

With visible effort Randolph re-

glad 1t happened that way" he said.
Get yourself drink. You'll find any
thing you want over there, guess, and
something to smoke; then we'll sit
down and have an old-fashioned talk"
The source of drinks he indicated
was a well-stocked cellarette at the
other side Of the room. But Rodneys
eye fell first on decanter and siphon
on the table, within reach of the chair
Randolph had been sitting In.
II don't believe want anything more
to drink just now" Rodney said. And,
as he followed Rodney's glance, Ran
dolph allowed himself another sardonic
grin.
The preliminaries were gone through
rather deliberately; chairs drawn up
and adjusted, ash-trays put within
reach; cigars got going satisfactorily.
But the talk they were supposed to
prepare the way for, didn't at once be-
gin.
Randolph took another stifIish drink
and settled back into dull, sullen Nb-
straction. Finally, for the sake Of say

"This is a wonderful room, isn't it?"

and she was up over the runway in a
minute, talking them over with Gal

down to me again for II minute, but ii
was hardly longer than that really.
She said she wished she might see me
to come TO the studio. because it was
a perfect bedlam, and that there was
no use asking me TO come TO her apart
ment, because she was never there
herself these days, except for about
seven hours a night of the hardest
kind of sleep. Ii l could stay around

"And you never thought of asking

of asking for her address. But it's the
easiest thing in the world to get. Call

"What makes you think he knowsY
Violet demanded.
'Well. for one thing" said Jimmy

The color came up into Violet's face

changed, the distinctly saucy quality
of the things they said to her.
"Of course" she said cOOlly, IF Rose

Buenos Aires Is Scene Of Great Anti
German Demonstration.
100000 in Parade.

BUENOS AIRES, September 2s (de-
layed).-It Is understood that President
Irigoyen is preparing a message to con-
gress, in which he will advocate that there
be no rupture with Germany until the re-
ceipt Of the translation Of the hundreds
of kilograms received or sent by the
Swedish legation here. copies OF which had
been telegraphed to Ambassador Naon at
Washington for DECIDING. 1t is further
understood that the president is attempt
ing to organize concerted action by the
Latin American nations looking to a break
with Germany by all the republics of
South America
1t is considered probable in many quar-
ters, however. that the popular demand
will bring about a rupture by Argentina
before the government has had time to
make study of further documents.
The greatest demonstration that Buenos
Aires has ever seen took place today as
an evidence of the almost unanimous feel
ing Of the people against Germany. There
were 200, 900 marchers in line led by a
commission Of Uruguayan senator's and
deputies, while thousands lined the thor
oughfares as spectators. The populace
threw flowers and tiny flags on the march
ers and cheered the Uruguayan congress
dence of the solidarity OF Uruguay with
the Argentine Republic.
All business was suspended. The dem
onstration was organized in twenty-four
hours, indicating the unanimity of public
opinion.

Senate judiciary subcommittee over
constitutionality of the civil rights

No report on the withdrawal Of the

prise.
It was not interpreted. however. as
meaning that the marines are not to
see active service at tho front. but
rather that the need for their services
in provost guard work, in which they
are most proficient, is at this time more
pressing.

protest in behalf of the workers in all

grounds at Indian Head.
District No. "A. government employees,
International Association of Machin-
lists, is now in biennial session here.
This organization has jurisdiction over
all machnists who work in navy yards
and arsenals. AT this convention this
morning a committee of six, headed
by the president. n. P. Alifas, was ap-
pointed to wait upon Assistant Secre-
tary Roosevelt and present the general
complaint.
Mr. Alifas stated that the new wage
scale is only about per cent instead
of the 10 per cent increase alleged by
the Navy Department. They ask for
an increase of SO cents adav eyer the
old scale throughout. an increase of be-
tween IL and 15 per cent.
This was set before Assistant Secre-
tary Roosevelt by the committee. The
representatives of the workmen found
him receptive of their objections and
willing to give consideration to the
demand.
Representative Mudd said the Indian
Head workers. numbering about 1900,
ask for the same consideration as given
to employees in the Washington navy
