Washington-The deSirability OF
efficient control of air currents and
the necessity Of supplying metal mine
workers with better and safer work
ing conditions has created an active
interest in metal mine ventilation, es-
pecially in recent years. In paper
just issued by the United States bu-
reau of mines. the writer, ID. Harring-
ton. mining engineer of the bureau,
discusses the subject both with regard
to efficiency and economy as well as
safety and health. 1t is based on per-
sonal observations of Mr.. Harrington
during more than four years study
of metal mines in six states, in which
more than fifty mines were visited.
In coal mines ventilation is general
Nv regarded as essential. but in many
metal mines, especially shallow ones,
the operators pay little attention to
ventilation, or ignore 1t altogether,
saws the writer. Mr.. Harrington says:
Ventilation Necessary.

THE stories told by both Colonel
Gaskill and Mr.. Moffat confirm what
has so often been said of the cruelties
OF the red troops. Colonel Gaskill
told with considerable vividness of the
descent of the reds upon the city even
before the troops and refugees had
gotten away. and of a night spent
amid turbulence and constant indjs-
criminate firing by the reds on refu-
gees and troop trains. Fortunately
their aim for the most part was poor.
Mr. Moffat In his rneion saw the hack

and the bodies of four mutilated sol
diSrs hanging in q freight car, their
wounds attesting that their deaths had
been made as horrible as humanity
possible.
"The condition of the refugees was
described by both men as pathetic,

AS a result OF the campaign now
being made by the Interchurch World
Movement the combined Protestant
churches of America will provide
many more hospitals, clinics and
homes for the aged and infirm. An
interesting feature of these Protestant
hospitals win be free treatment for
ministers, as recent surveys made by
the Interchurch. organization have
made the need for special dispense
lions very obvious.
The following startling facts were
divulged as to the average salaries In
the various denominations. Starting
with the highest, the average for Epis-
copal ministers is $1,242; the average
for Presbyterian tNorth), SLIT: for
the United Presbyterians, $1,O98; for
the Reformed Church (Dutch), s., no;
for the Methodist Episcopal (North),
s1,176; Congregational, $1,O42, and for
the Baptists (Northern), $3.50.
With government experts, announc.
ing that $500 is the lowest salary
upon which family can be decently
maintained and suggesting budgets for
none lower, ministers have discour-
aging outlook. Such things az hospi-
tai bills are almost impossible 30 meet,
and yet every normal family has some
illness in its midst every year Ac-
cordingly the Interchurch Movement,
while on Its way to obtain higher aver
ages In salaries, will assist by prOvid-
Ing free care In its instatntiana.
