much more than small replicas.

 There is a very practical reason for this phase of naval construction. These models often serve valuable get much more out of brief examin- alton of a sealed model than they could out of a mass of figures and drawings, which constitute the aver age ships plans In fact, before ev- cry big ship is built a wooden hull, sealed on the proportions of the con tenplated vessel, is first made and tried out in the model basin of the mary trial it is possible to determine approxirnately the merits objec- tions to the design and calculate in advance what the new ship will do room of the department itself is kept d~tailed models of the standard types of capital and special ships of the world from which the designers can get ideas and concFete iliuStrSAdonS oI plans.
 Of the completed models now on hand the Navy has repicas, varying from a foot or two to twelve feet and more, of every type of war vessel from inc oId-time frigate Vermont, a souare-rigged, 11O-gun ship of 1872 to the latest airplane carrier. In between are battleships of the Maine type, destroyers from first to lates! design. sub-chasers, all classes of submarines gunboats and special ser twice ships.

UNCLE SAWS LITTLE NAVY" OF
 MODELS 0UTRANkS MINIATURE
 BkTTLESHIPS OF ANY COUNTRY

Washington, Sept. 24-Uncle Sam, despite the huge battleships slipping off the ways and joining other huge ships making up the second largest navy af1oat, is little navy man. In this respect he probably owns one Of the best little navies'' in the world literally speaking.
 This navy is little, in all senses ot the word, yet is a model navy too. In fact, it is made up of model ships models of perfection of detail and models of the largest ships that make up the real United States Navy.
 It is not generally known, except to Washington tourists perhaps, that for generations back every ship in the American navy was represented by a small-sca1e counterpart, beautifully made. These small models have ac- cumulated and today form an inter esting study in the development of shipping, not only from a naval view point but from the angle of the stu dent of marine architecture. In fact so valuable are these models as con crete Illustrations of the advance in the science of shipbui1ding that they are often requisitioned by cities far away for temporary use group studies in that subject. Just at present a number of the models are scattered in representative groups ington as historical exhibits.
 Cost Runs High Apiece.
 The miniature navy is well repre- sented in the Navy Department build inas. where the models are a never ending source of interest to all viS- itors.

II You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have th0 Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why 1t IS that so many products that are ex- tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason IS plain--the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it..
 A prominent druggist says Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re- suits, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills al- most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri- nary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address pr. Kilmer $ Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., and enclose ten cents; also mention this paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores. s.Advertisement

Is This an Embarrassment of Riches?

the economists who tell us that the inflow of the gold to the United States beginning early in the World war was an important factor in cheapening the dollar and increasing prices.
 Whether prices and the purchasing power of the dollar ever will return to the pre-war level is universal question which the economists answer with the assertion that until our gold hoard diminishes materially prices will not decline materially.
 Prof. Irving Fisher of Yale univer- sity looks for rise in wholesale prices and reviving business next fall.
 The Stable Money league is study ing tho phenomena of price move ments with view to recommending legislation to counteract such fiucttia- tions in the purchasing power of the dollar as have upset industry, com merce. and household economy in the last few years.
 Professor Fisher proposes to stabil- ize the dollar by increasing it's gold content when there Is a tendency of gold to deprec!ate and decreasing its gold content when the tendency of gold is to appreciate.

More Than One Way to Pay Income Tax

A PPROXIMATELY $20,000,000 was 4 added to the government rev enues during the fiscal year just ended through recOYeries from false and fraudulent income tax returns, Com missioner Blair announced recently. Indictments have been returned dur ing the year in every section of the country he said, and many jail sen tences have been imposed, ranging from 60 days to a year, in addition to the fines and penalties, which were also assessed.
 Fraud upon the government by filing false and fraudulent tax returns appears in many unique ways" Mir. Blair said "Some taxpayers are eX- tremely crude in their methods, and reduce their taxes by merely omit ting large items of income from their returns.
 "Manipulations of inventory are not infrequently found, and these can al- ways be checked accurately by the field examiners of the bureau, and no business of any size can keep ac- curate books and at the same time manipulate inventories. Some taxpay-

w AsHINGToN-President Hard w ing favors the proposal to place all the aircraft services of the govern ment military and civil. under one central authority. There has been an impression that the President was op- posed to this plan and that impress sion was emphasized when Major General Menoher chief of the air serY- ice of the army, asked the secretary of war to remove the assistant chief. Brig. Gen. William Mitchell, who was a persistent advocate of amalgamation of the army and navy air services.
 It is learned, however, that the President is heartily in favor of the proposed amalgamatlon and that the joint reorganization commission, which Is engaged in preparing plans for reorganization of administration of the executive branch of the government, is inclined to recommend the unif1ca- ton of all the governments aircraft activities.

CTS, evidently, are of the belief that they can hire interruptions account ants who reconstruct their books, and then if the fraud is discovered blame it all on the accountants, to whom they usually pay large fees"
 In many instances field examiners have discovered that taxpayers keep two sets of books, one set accurately setting forth the status of the busi- ness and the other, set fraudulently setting forth their income, and merely kept for the purpose of defrauding the government. It is safe to say that in nine out of ten of these latter cases the fraud Is discovered within a short time after It is perpetrated.

Only One Pilot for the National Aircraft

The position of President Harding in the matter is that amaigamation will work 70 efficiency and economy One great difficulty pertaining to the present separate aircraft services that has impressed him is that there is no systematic method of awarding con tracts for the construction of aircraft One branch awards contracts without regard to any other government air craft organization, and the President believes that this is detrimental to the upbuilding of private aircraft manu- fracture in the United States.
 The aircraft manufacturers are de pendent almost entirely on govern ment patronage, as commercial de- mands are small, and it is claimed that unless the government so ar ranges its contracts as to distribute contracts among all those concerns which produce aircraft meeting gov ernment standards, some of them may be obliged to go out of business.
 In these circumstances President Harding Is understood to feel that a central government aircraft Organiza- tion will be better able to determine how contracts should be awarded for the entire government.
 Inference is drawn from what is learned of the Presidents position that he is in favor of the amalgama- tion of the War and the Navy depart ments into department of national defense

NEW R. R. SHOP
RULES READY DEC. |
Labor Board Says Plan For
Six Crafts is Complete
PAVES WAY FOR WA-E ISSUE
Revision OF Pay OF Groups Affected
BY Changed Rules May Be
Asked-To Affect 100000
Men.

Chicago-The United States Rail.
road Labor Board announced that new
working rules for the six shop crafts
probably will be completed and issued
in time to become effective Decem-
Der !.
Issuance Of the rules, under recent
decision of the board, paves the way
for consideration of requests which
may be filed by the roads for revision
of the shop-craft wage schedules.
The new shop craft rules will affect
approximately 100000 men on all class
/ railroads in the country. Only "a
railroads are directly concerned in the
present case, the others not having
their submissions in proper shape
when the case was taken UP, but
board members anticipate that all the
class l railroads will probably carry
out the decision without further hear
ings
The boards statement said:
Such satisfactory progress during
the past week has been made in the
consideration of rules and working
conditions for the six shop crafts
that it is altogether probable that
these rules will be completed and will
become effective December l."
The board members said tonight
that the new rules have been prac-
tically completed in less than five
months, while the national agreement,
which they supersede, required that
attention of railway. Government and
labor representatives and experts for
seven months before it was completed.
The Labor Boards work on the
rules was interrupted by the threat
ened abroad strike Which was avert
ed October 81. A few days previously
the board had announced thai no fur
Their wage reductions for any class of
employees would be considered by the
board until working iules md agree
ments in dsprts fol that class OF en-
ployees had been Haased on.
The board, it was indicated. will
next take UP for coAa eration rules
ami working co .,..t!o.s 10 TIL main
teaance-of-way employees. There are
large number OF disputed questions
regarding these rules already before
the board, and statisticians have pre-
pared most of the cases for presenta-
ton.
Steps for revision of the national
agreements before the Labor Board
were taken April Is, 1920, after the
railroads and their employees had fin
iShed preliminary negotiations both as
to wages and rules and working con-
ditions without reaching any agree
ment. The board FASTENED the de-
cision by ordering further conferences
between employees and the roads on
rules and working conditions. The
results were reported back to the
board, which in July began the work
OF formulating new rules.
