WASHINGTON, Dec. S1.--Much of
promise ia the new year is seen by
Secretaries Hoover and Weeks, who in
statements issued tonight declared the
American people could look forward
into 1922 as a year OF recuperation.
Considering that we have gone
the greatest war in history
and considering the dangers that we
have passed through in the great re-
adjustment of 1921" said Secretary
Hoover. 1--WE have lot to be cheerful
over and we have ahead of us very
substantial hopes of steady improve
ment at home and abroad"
The industrial and social upheaval
resulting from the war reached it's
crisis during the old year." said Sec
retary Weeks, "the period of adjust
ment has been trying for the people
and government alike but the rapidity
with which the American people have
been putting their affairs in order dur
ing the past few months makes the
outlook for complete industrial adjust
ment and resulting prosperity during
the coming year bright"

visions Of chapter SAIL, laws Of Flor
idaf 1921, since the enactment. of the
statute The gross receipts from this
source have been 2S,056.41. 4 most
gratifying feature in connection with
this collection is the fact that every
cent received has been paid into the
treasury of the state, there being no
expense OF operation whatever in con-
nection with the collection
The additional work me- IL" necessary
by the law has been absorbed by the
regular Office force in the comptroller S
office, so that the whole amount re-
ceived has been paid into the treas
ury. The first item on the statement
shows a collection Of $20,94 on July y,
so that the receipts cover a period of
six months; at the present rate the
law will yield a revenue of approxi-
mately $4,000 annually.
The statute under which the collec-
ton is made is the gasoline law, the
validity OF which has been made the
subject of attack in the courts. and
which IS now pending in the supreme
court.
The largest single collection under
the law as shown by the statement
was on Dec. "a, when one of the COM
panies operating in Florida paid the
sum Of $24, 4,379.4S.

WOULD ABOLISH MILITARY
TRAINING FOR STUDENTS

CHICAGO. Ill, Dec. 31-A nation
wide campaign against military train
.ng for high school boys has been
started here by the headquarters Of the
American Federation OF Teachers. The
first organization to pledge cooperation
with the teachers is The League of
Women Voters. of which Mrs. Harriet
Treadwell Taylor is president. A close
second is the Illinois League of Women
Voters, whose executive board through
Its president, Mrs. Henry W. Cheney
has endorsed the movement.
The federation's opposition TO mil
itary training in the public high schools
is based upon three arguments: -
l. Because not even Germany deem
ed it advisable to maintain military
training for school boys in time Of
peace.
2. Because military training is not
an adequate substitute for physical
training.
3. Because miIitarism should be dis
not encouraged.
The appeal is being sent to organ
nations throughout the United States.
