Ostrich's Voice Is Loud.

Like many other birds, ostriches lose
or cease to use their voices In captiv-
ity, and very few visitors to the zoo
know that they have voices at all. In
their natural surroundings, however,
they are far from dumb, for they have
q song like the roar of lion. In
fact, DIR. Livingstone said he could only
tell the difference between the two by
the fact that the ostriches roared by
day and the lions by night. Just as
boys voices break" so the voices OF
some birds, ornithologists have discov-
cred, change from youthful tos adult
tones. The voice of the young buzzard
is about an octave higher than that OF
Its parents, and in certain owls 1t is as
much as two octaves higher. Growing
moorlarks and finches have an actual
"break'' in the voice, and in domestic
fowls this break or change is very
marked, says an exchange. In the case
of the silver gull the break Of voice
comes with the putting on Of the adult
plumage ge-Brooklyn Eagle.

in these hospitals taken over by the
Veterans Bureau is in excess of 2S,-

There were many ex-service men
living in remote sections of the coun-
try who were not aware Of the bene-
fits they could receive and should be
receiving from the government under
the Veterans Bureau In order that
no worthy ex-service man entitled to
benefits Of any kind might-be neglect
ed, the Veterans Bureau conducted a
drive in which over 175,000 ex-service
men were interviewed and 10000 new
claims were filed and handled as
result.
As a result of this tremendous pro-
gram of Federal aid to ex-service men,
all of which has been put into effect
by the Republican Party and the
money for which has been appropr.-
ated by a Republican Congress, the
following summarization may be
given:

his relief that the taxes he reducod
Inc outstanding feature of the new
tax law written by the special session
OF the Republican Congress was an in.
crease of $500 in the tax exemn,ior
OF the head OF every family who re-.
ceives an annual income of So. 0OO ar
less. In addition. his exemption for
children and dependents was doubled
from $500 to S400. These exemptions
embrace practically all those on q
wage or salary. 1t includes over 4 /.
100000 heads of families in ordinary
circumstances. In addition, the new
tax law repealed altogether the
nuisance" taxes which working men
had to pay on everything everywhere
for everything they bought. 1t also
repealed all transportation taxes
which we're levied on all goods shipped
by freight or express or parcel post.
Such taxes were added to the ultimate
cost of goods and, in the long run.
were paid by the working men. All
told, the new tax bill lifted from the
shoulders of the working classes of
this country over sS00,000,000 a year.
According to report issued by the
U. S. Department of Labor June. 1922
the retail cost of living was gradually
reduced from March, 1921, to the time
the report was issued. The living costs
in no other nation in the world were
reduced during this same time.
The sum and total of one year of
Harding's administration, so far as it
affects the working people. has been
the elimination of the problem of un-
employment except in those industries
affected by strikes; reduction of taxes
paid by the working classes in a sum
aggregating nearly a billion dollars
the restriction of immigration; a gen
eral program of lessened public ex-
penditures which insures still further
reductions in taxes; an increase of Is
per cent in the value of Liberty bonds,
millions of which are held by wage
earners and men on salaries; a grad
ual reduction in living costs.
The Republican journal., 1922-09-14

According to estimates given out by
the American Federation of Labor at
that time there were between 100000
and 100000 wage-earners out OF en-
ployment when the Republican ad-
ministration came into power March
4, 1921. This Industrial depression
began early in the summer of 1920.
The immediate problem before the Re-
publican party was the return to nor
NAL conditions.
The underlying cause of industrial
depression was the prostration of agri
culture brought about by the radical
curtailment of agricultural credits by
the Democratic administration. The
American farmer buys 40 per cent. of
all manufactured products. His des-
perate circumstances compelled indus.
tries to curtail production and turn
men into the streets. The Republican
Congress Immediately restored agri-
culture to a healthy condition. The
farmer entered the market again as
buyer of manufactured goods. The
ranks of the unemployed began to
! decrease.
At the time the coal and railroad
strikes were called there was a great
er demand for laboring men than there
was supply.
One of the most important contribut.
ing factors to the improvement of the
unemployment situation was the early
enactment by the special session of
the Republican Congress of the re.
strictive immigration law. This was
demanded by the laboring people of
the United States. It's enactment pre-.
vented the incoming of hundreds of
thousands of immigrants who would
only have increased the ranks of the
unemployed and added to the indus
trial distress. The previous Republi.
can Congress had passed similar law
but it was vetoed by President Wilson.
The Republican administration came
into power finding the burden of taxes
very heavy. The working man had to
bear his share. 1t was essential to

Curiosity Of Sound.

There were reported to the Ameri-
can Physical society series of ex-
periments on a singular difference In
the audibility of sound when passing
over water and over grass. Under
similar conditions of quietness II was
found that given sound could be
heard almost exactly four times as
far over water as over grass. The as
sumption that water is a perfect re-
fiector and grass a complete absorber
of sound waves is not, it is thought,
sufficient to explain the phenomenon.
The practical Importance of knowing
this popularity, where sound may
have to be sent across a grassy plain,
Is evident.
