Willard Storage Battery and expects

LIST OF DESERTERS
REDUCED RAPIDLY
Adiutant General Reports
Many Enormously CIassed
as EVaders.

According to a statement issued by
Adjt Gen. Harris, the number of cases
of desertion reported to the provost
marshal general was 4S9, ,0O3, but that
an examination of the records OF the
Army prior to July Is, 1919, showed
that 151.354 of the number reported
as deserters had enlisted in our own
been enormously inducted, SO that the
total of net desertions was reduced
thereby to 37,649.

been apprchended prior to July ID.
1919, and their cases disposed of by
the military authorities, leaving an
actual balance of outstanding deser-
tions on that date of 1891
Since July Is. 1919. says the adJu-
tant general, approximately 10000
men who Were carried as deSerterS.
We're found TO have enlisted in our
Army. Navy or Marine Corps. and as
the examination of the records pro-
crosses. the number who served. and
who are, consequently, enormously
reported as willful deserters, is being
added to from day to day A number,
probably several thousands, that can
not now be accurately determined,
have been apprehended and their
cases disposed of subsequent to July
Is, 1919.
The number of desertions is be-
ing reduced and will be further re-
duced after the examination of the
records in all cases has been COM
pleted." said the departments an
nouncement
"A number of names will be ellmi-
mated through the receipt of infor-
nation now being obtained from the
adjutants general of the states. to
whom the lists of deSerters from their
respective states We're sent. Informa-
ton has been received within the last
few days from two of the smaller
states that enabled the department to
eliminate forty names from the list OF
deserters.
"One of the reasons for giving pub
licity to the fact that the list of de-
serters was to be published was to
cause all those persons in whose mind
there existed doubt as to their final
status to write to the War Department
in order that their records could be
investigated. This has resulted in the
elimination recently of a number of
names from the list.
The task of eliminating the names
of those who are not willful deserte es<;
is a difficult and tedious one, but the
work is being pushed as fast as the
limited clerical force will permit"

be even more desirable.
Earning Capacity.
The main argument brought out oy
he opponents of the restricted helght IL
The depreciation of value OF property que
to the lowering of the potential earning
capacity of the property.
John P Healy. inspector or buiioiiass'

teal and actual loss.

that the earning capacity of property
Will be lessened by 20 per cent through
the loss of two stories in an offlc" buiIn-
ing, which is difference between llo-
foot building and one of 1870 feet, and ne
believes that many projected buildings
will be given up because adequate re
turns cannot be realized on the invested
capital.
Allan Walker, the real estate broker.
who was member of several OF the
civic bodies that appeared before the
zoning commission, carries this further
and says that those builders who do go
ahead with projects under these dlsad-
vantageS will be forced. for want OF
proper returns, to resort to cheap con-
beauty and Ornamental ton. ana will have
to demand higher rentals and keep up
less efficient office building manage

tation of the city for durable and per

Frank Milburn. secretary of the
Rotary Club. who drew up the report
for that organization. goes one step
further, and says that the tendency
of the builder viii be to erect non
fireproof buildings, because larger re-
turns on capital could be promised on
seven-story cheap non-tireproof
building. which comes within the law.
than on a slightly higher. expensive
fireproof building without the advan-
tage of going to the full limit of $50
feet that the old law allowed. He
points out the undeSira bality of hav-
ing non -freproof buildings through

Members of the Chamber of Com
arguments has been refuted. and eX-
press the hope that the commission
will go further into the reasons for
maintaining the leniency of the for
mer regulation.
