HAS Big LEAD IN VOLCANOES
United States Can Boast" of More
Than a Quarter of Those
Known to Be Active.

Uncle Sam owns more than a quar-
ter Of the active volcanoes of the
world, the report that two more have
been born in Alaska making the grand
total 106.
There are Ga smoking peaks In
Alaska and the Aleutlan Islands and
many more in western United States,
Hawaii and the Philippines. 1t is
likely, however, If many Of the 50.
called vents of the Mount Katmai
region of Alaska would be classed as
volcanoes this country could boast of
the majority of the old earths skin
troubles-an unenviable record
There are All active volcanoes on
the globe that have been located TO
date.
There are numerous peaks in the
Philippine islands Tot sufficiently well
known TO establish whether they are
volcanoes or smoke POTS or vents. In
Alaska there are hundreds of vents
from which constantly issue steam and
smoke, but which are not called vol
canoes.
An occasional volcano bursts forth
from the sea near the Aleutian Islands,
but finally succumbs to the flood Of sea
water.

Work in MADAGASCAR Compulsory.

All idle persons in Madagascar must
work or pay tax for the privilege of
living an unproductive life. AS the
end of the war released thousands Of
native troops, the colonial government
has decided that something must be
done to check idleness, especially as
there is plenty of work for all corners.
A decree just published insists that
every European sound Of limb must
work at least $50 days year up TO
the age of fifty but natives are not
compelled to work more than $50 days
OF course, anyone with n private for
tune can be exempted, but that will
cost % francs per diem for leisure
All "oisif'' taxes will be used to buy
agricultural machinery and tools for
the development Of the islands re-
sources. The aged and crippled will
receive small salary to seek out
evaders of the new regulation. "Oislfs"
are the equivalent in French for
"lounge lizards"
