CENSUS MACHINES
SWIFT: MAKE RECORD

Electric tabulating machines in the
census bureau, Washington, are max
ing new high records. the bureau an
nounees. On August ) one machine
handled 2O7 POI cards and thirty nine
readings, the cards being tabulated
at the rate OF 20 sos per hour. or 49s
per minute. about the maximum limit
of the machine.
Each reading showed the total num-
Der of deaths in certain districts by
sex, age. cause and date. of death,
and the announcement states that
"the results. therefore, show not only
the degree to which deaths are con-
centrated at certain ages, but also
the time of the year that they were
most prevalent in the city for which
the figures are reported"

II steps are taken to prevent the
waste. which now takes place. the
daily quantity required by the city
would be reduced 10 about $780,
900 gallons and the total 10 be
provided, including the Naval
Academy and PASSPORT. would be
1850. 600 gallons. During the past
IL years the water consumption
has increased 16 percent. or about
Is percent per year. This rate,
we believe, could be safely used
in computing the provisions TO be
made for future increased de-
mands.

LONDON, Dec. 3.-An allied note
declaring complete liberty of action
will be exercised if King Constantine
returns to Greece, will be published
widely in Greek newspapers, 1t was
declared today, to influence the
plebcscite December 5.
The note was drafted yesterday in
a conference of British, French and
Italian officials. 1t was determined
to give the note the widest circula-
ton in the Greek press before the
plebescite on Constantine's return to
prevent the Greek government from
suppressing it.
The note expressed surprise at the
Greek situation, referred to Constan-

caused the allies embarrassment and
loss. The kings restoration. it said.
would be regarded by the allies as
ratification of his hostile act.
The British press declared the note
might have the effect of dissuading
Constantine from his return. The

LONDON, Dec. 3.--The bodies of
the fifteen policemen slaughtered by
Sim Feiners at Macroom, Ireland.
were brought here today for military
funerals
Most Of the victims were world war
veterans. They were to be accorded
full military honors.
Reports here today indicated spo-
radio outbreaks were continuing in
Ireland. There was no loss Of life
reported, but property damage was
said to be high.
A statement issued from Dublin
lists" were outlaws against civiliza-
treat, was circulated here today.
The statement said in part:
Despite the continued succession
Of murderous attacks upon the forces
of the crown, there is evidence that
the main body of Irish opinion has
suffered a severe shock to its self
respect by the atrocities committed in
the name of Irish nationality. Dis
closure of plans for extending the
campaign of violence to English
towns, which received such striking
confirmation few days later in the
incendiary outbreak in Liverpool, has
revealed the republican extremists as
outlaws against civilization with
whom it is not possible for any gov
ernment to treat, and recognition of
this fact must soon tend to destroy
whatever hold they may still possess
on the confidence Of section of the
Irish public"

we can rely upon the reports of the
success of these taxes in Canada, the

The great burden OF war taxation
has brought to business men with
added force the need Of adopting as
a permanent part of our machinery Of
government and well reorganfzed
budget system which will result in
the placing uf the financial operations

basis. thereby helping to eliminate
waste and extravasance.
OF equal Importance. as compared
with the problem OF taxation, is the
state OF our International relations
and their effect on our present and
future foreign trade. Entirely aside
from the question of whether or not
we had better enter league of ma
tons, no dmbt exists as to the me-
cessity for the establishment, at the
earliest possible moment, of a state
Of peace and the strengthening OF
International economic relations with
the whole world. While it seems prohi-

largely dependent upon our interna-

Valuable service can be rendered
through the enlrging of the govern,
ments facilities for obtaining prompt
and accurate information in regard to
conditions existing in foreign coun-
tries which will affect our foreign
trade and the prompt distribution of
this information to business concerns
who can use it to advantage.
OF equal Importance with the en-
actment Of legislation necessary to
placing the government on a sound
business, is efficient administration of

Fundamentally, economic conditions
