POSTING THE DESERT.
Important Work Being Carried Out BY
Geological Survey.

The United States geological survey,
department of the interior, has surveyed
and signposted great area of the most
dangerous desert region Of the United
States. The 39th annual report of the
topographic division Of the survey, just
made public, describes the method EN-
ployed of making the desert safe 10 the
unwary traveller.
The region surveyed occupies about
10000 square miles in southern Califor.
MIA and southwestern Arizona. In Cali
fornia it includes the southern part of
Death valley and the region between
this valley and the Mexican border; in
Arizona it includes the region west of
Tucson and Phoenix and south of Wick
enburg and Parker. This region was
selected because it is the driest, hottest
and least explored part of the desert re-
gion, and also because Of the strategic
Importance of obtaining information on
the water supplies along the $50 miles
of national frontier that it includes. The
field work was done by four parties, each
of which consisted Of one gelogist and
one nontechnical assistant QUILTED
with an automobile and light camping
equipment. Practically all watering
places in the region were examined,
about 100 samples of water were coll
lected and shipped to the water resources
laboratory at Washington, D. c., for
analysis, and a general exploration was

FOOD ADVANCES 1000 PER CENT.
And There Is Little Food to Be Had in
Constantinople at That Price.

The urgent need for immediate outside
aid to the starving and destitute peoples
of the near East is emphasized in re-
cent report received from the Ottoman
empire by DR. William w peet of Wash
ington, D. G., representative of the Amer.
lean committee for relief in the near
East formerly the Armenian and Syrian
relief.
The report states that, owing to adj
vance of food prices in Constantinople to
20 times above those obtaining before the
war, food supplies win have to be pur-
chased in the United States. The aban-
donment of the ration of cheap bread
which the government issued during the
war, necessitated by the Reorganization
of the railroads in Asia, has also in
creased the need Of immediate aid TO
keep refugees from starving.
The following cable, received from Te-
heran by DR.. Peet, shows the urgency of
their need.
Two hundred thousand refugees are
outside the Caucasus. Those from Sal
mas and Van number 10000. Those, now
in Hamadan, from Balu number 10000.
The soldiers have evacuated Petrowsk
and Enzelle, They viii be transported TO
Armenia. There is great need of relief
from some source for the repatriation of
refugees and orphans. 1t is very neces-
sary that the troops for the occupation of
the six Vilayets be increased The Ar
menians even in the Caucasus are in great
need of medicines and clothing. Relief
can be sent via Batoun for the refugees.

Acknowledgements.

The committee calls attention to part
j. of this report These estimates are
carefully made and il the legislature
makes provisions for the proper care of
the various state departments as recon-
mended by the committee, it will neces-
state the legislature providing for more
revenue by direct tax or otherwise if spe-
cial or military appropriations are re-
quired.
Department of Charities and Probation
The committee in considering recon.
mendations for the department of char
tiles and probation did not feel justified
at this time in recommending the appro.
priation asked for by the department
The department has been in existence for
only about one year and a half. 1t has
grown rapidly and its usefulness and
benefits are undoubtedly apparent. Its
possibilities are so large and its functions
so statewide and extensive that the com
mittee thought wise to leave the general
policy of its operations and the amount
of appropriation to the legislature. The
recommendation of appropriation made
is based entirely upon the law now gov
erning the department.
Highway and Engineers Departments.
Both of these departments are more or
less affected in their plans and policies
by the extension of federal aid to high
ways of the state and the committee in
recommending the appropriations did not
take the future policy of these depart
ments into consideration but left the
same to such action as the legislature
may see fit to make.
Deserted Families Appropriation.
The legislature of 1915 provided for
the payment by officers in charge of the
house of correction and the county iails
in which persons are confined for non
support of their families, certain sums of
money for support of the dependents of
such persons. This law has been found
impracticable and the committee recon-
mend the repeal of the provision as now
found in Sec 3542 of the general laws.
Damage by Deer.
Two years ago the legislature failed to
make provision for payment of damage
done by deer and such payments have
been made by agreement between the
auditor and the fish and game commits
sioner from the fish and game fund.
Your committee, in table w., recommend
the appropriation of $1,000 annually for
the purpose of meeting such expense, and
further recommend that the fish and
game department be reimbursed the ex-
penditures from its funds so made during
the years 1917 and 1918, in the sum of
$3,2ll.53.
Soldiers Home
The trustees of the Soldiers home ask
the committee to recommend an appro-
priation of $4,000 for use in making nee
essary repairs to the buildings at the
home to be available early in the spring,
and the committee recommend that the
legislature make such an appropriation
in addition to the regular appropriation
recommended.
The following is descriptive of the
statements and tables in six parts, and

RACE PREJUDICE WILL

Ex-Minister of Justice 0zaki of Japan
Believes 1t Will Be Because Colored
Races Seek the Same Treat
ment as White Races.

Toxic, Dec. 10 Correspondence of the
Associated Press Belief that the next
war will be the outcome of race preju-
dices is expressed by Yukio Ozaki, for
merly minister of justice, and leading
member of the constitutional party. Mr.
0zaki said that, in his opinion, the col
ored races which steadily were develop
ing their civilization would demand
finally the same treatment as the white
races, and that the result would be an
armed collision.
Mr.. 0zali recommended that at the
peace conference, Japan, acting on behalf
of all the Asiatic races, should introduce
the racial and population questions for
consideration, and if possible secure a
solution.
In a country like Japan, where the
population is increasing with alarming
the surplus population should try to OBJ
tain an outlet even by resorting to arms
From Japan's standpoint, said Mr.. 0zaki
the racial or population questions were
more important than President Wilson's
fourteen points" as laid down for a ba-
sis of Germany's surrender These racial
questions, he said, concerned the future
Of millions of souls in Asia.
Mr.. Ozaki warned the japanese not to
develop the German system of state or
ganization which in the present war had
proved to be mere machine for destroy
ing civilization and for trampling under
foot the rights Of other nations and peo-
plies.
On the question Of Japans occupation
of the German South Sea islands, Mr.
0zaki declared that the United States
should dismantle her forts in the Philip.
pines and Hawaii, and that this would be
more important for japan than the tax
ing over of the South Sea islands,

Report for Biennial Term
Ending June 80, 1921

The Vermont state appropriations esti-

committee for the biennial period ending
June 80, 1921, amount to $4,s57 $50, to
which must be added the $l49,500 appro-

of $l,296,090, from which should be de-
Quoted the contingent fund of 100000,
leaving a deficit of 81 ,096,0o0.
This deficit would necessitate direct
state tax of 20 cents on a dollar of the

which it is estimated would bring 81 0T5,-
