DIRECTOR Of MINES
TO Be APPOINTED

As reported in our news section OF
May 22, bill has been introduced ii
the Senate by Senator Henderson, o.
Nevada, the ranking member of the
Senate Committee on Mines and
Mining, which provides for the con.
solidation OF the U. S. Geological
Survey and the Bureau of Mines TN.
der special division of the Interior
Department, to be known as the Di-
vision a. Mines and Geology. 1t is
further provided that the division shall
be under the control and direction of
an Assistant Secretary of the Interior,
who shall be technically qualified by
experience and education to exercise
the powers and duties herein imposed
He shall be appointed by the Presi-
dent, by and with the advice and con.
sent of the Senate, and shall receive
a salary OF $4,000 a year
This bill has Our hearty approval,
and we believe it will be supported
by the different mining industries, and
that it will have the support of the
two governments involved. 1t should
have the approval q; those who think
the mining industry should be rep.
resented by Department OF Mines
and also OF those who do not believe
in the further multiplication of de-
partments and Cabinet officers: for the
head of this Division, although a
direct Presidential appointec, will not
be a Cabinet Officer. Senator
Henderson is especially to be con-
graduated on the breadth Of vision
which led him to insert i'll the speci-
fications Tor this official that he must
be properly prepared technical man;
thereby removing the office from the
grasp of politicians as such.
The plan has the further advantage
over a Department of Mines in that
geology has co-ordinated represen-
tation, SO that the present work Of
the Geological Survey would be com
passed in it, and geology apart from
mining applications would be recog-
nized. In such Division it would be
feasible to gether together and prop
erly systematic all mineral work o.
the Government in Washington,
whether in the Interior Department or
outside, and to form strong policy
for both domestic and foreign miner
al-suppply problems. Cooperation
with the state geological surveys and
state mining bureau would be much
simpIified and Congress would have
definite executive source to turn to
as guide for legislation, and the
other executive departments for their
Information.
Under the terms of the bill it does
not necessarily follow that the inn
portance of either of the existing bu-
reaus would be diminished, or the
positions of their chiefs lessened: rath.
er would their authority and prestige
be increased by their consolidation
and extension.
1t is to be hoped that the bill will
be promptly Endorsed by the represent
tative people and groups OF the min
ing states, as well as by the national
mining and geological groups +, and
that it will receive prompt considera-
lion and action.-N. Y. Mining and

Misunderstanding night of 1t" be-
came almost lost art in England
during the late war. The owl and the
Briton were scarcely on speaking
terms.
In the first place, 1t wasn't patriotic
TO "stay, out ut night" Then there
was the absence of lights, the shortage
of taxis, the ban on dancing and-the
Gothas. So nights were spent in bed
and the only time Londoner saw the
sun rise WAS when he got up early to
work in his allotment.

was actually penal offense to strike
a match in the street. But those who
only saw it in wartime wouldn't know

The grays are puppies now and the
lights are bright and red, and in Pie
cadilly Circus they have four electric
signs that flash on and off.
London has acquired the night club
fever. From IL p. m. to a. m. has
become the recognized space Of time

How the Night Is Spent.
Are you dancing tonight?" no long
err means are you going to spend the
hours between dinner time and mid
night at hall or club. 1t means are
you going to Rector's, to the Grafton
galleries or to Brett's, picking up your
party somewhere about midnight and
never thinking of going home until the
milkman's horse has got his second
wind and the pink finish of London

Beware Of pets.

A series of experiments has con-
vinced one of the professors Of Upsala
university that the danger to the colh-
munity through the dissemination OF
disease germs by animal pets Is Sc
rious. In one case whole family was
a1iiicted with tuberculosis through a
pet cat. A Professor Pet,. In France
voices the danger by appealing to
owners OF pets to take special precau-
tons with animals whose health il not
good Diphtheria Is more easily cir
culated by the feline tribe than any
other disease.
