The argument has beca advanced that 'nl!

In most ot the countries the total tax levy for Territorial and County purposes was less than two per cent of assessed valuations.

FOREIGN SHIPS CONTINUE TO GAIN

That the United States is not carrying due proportion of it's ocean commerce and that Government owned ships are checking private enterprise in shipping, was clearly shown by statistics presented recently by Chairman Lasker, of the U. s. Shipping Board. After pointing out the necessity for an extensive merchant Marine service under the American flag as an agency in the building up of our foreign trade, and also showing the importance of merchant fleet as an aux iliarv of the navy for the transportation of men and supplies in case of war, MT. Lasker presented the relative amount of American foreion commerce now being carried in Ameri- can ships as follows:
 "For December, which represents recent normal month, foreign ships carried 70 per cent of our overseas general cargoes and A per cent was left to be carried ln American ships. This A per cent measured our success in competing against foreign nations for the carriage of our products to the markets of the world Of the "A per cent 19 per cent was car ried in Shipping Board vessels and per cent by private American, owners.
 ct must be the purpose of the ann of Amer ica, and the Shipping Board emphasizes It's belief that this aim can be accomplished, to carry at least 50 per cent of our foreign trade, other than with contiguous and nearby coun- tries, under the American flag privately op- eratec The suggestions made to the Congress by the President contemplate within decade, at the cost estimated by him, that 50 per cent of such trade will be carried under the Amer ican flag privately operated
 ''Of the "A per cent of world carriage in American bottoms here referred to, it is ap- alling to think that 19 per cent is carried in Government owned ships and only per cent in privately owned ships, when it is consid cred that the Government, through the Ship. ping Board admits its inability to operate on an equally efficient basis in competition with the private ships of the world.
 '.F'fty million dollars annually it is costing to keep the Shipping Board boats going-fifty million dollars, not including, however in- tercst, full insurance, or depreciation on in- vested capital

Says There Is Life on Moon.

An eminent astropomer. Prof. VIII
liam II. Pickering of Harvard univer-
sity, has put forth the interesting
theory that the moon is not perfect
ly dead world. Professor Pickering
believes that he sees through the tele-
scope indications of a kind of vegeta-
ton that springs up suddenly under
certain conditions and disappears al
most as suddenly when the conditions
change. Other astronomers are skep-
teal about the discovery. They are
inclined to think that Professor Pick
ering sees bands or patches of shadow.
or course no one thinks that there Is
any highly organized life on the moon.
Even If Professor Pickering is right,
there could be nothing more than a
low kind of vegetation; something
comparable, perhaps, to arctic moss

German Bells IN Africa.

The first peal of bells to arrive In
Johannesburg. South Africa Is Ger
man one. 1t has very interesting
history. Seven years ago set of
three bells with electric control, was
subscribed for, the donors including
the late ex-kaiserin of Germany. They
were shipped on the Prinz Regent,
which at the outbreak of the war ran
into Teneriffe, where the goods were
warehoused. Recently the owners Of
the warehouse demanded that the con-
signees should take delivery. The lat
ter are the committee of the Friedens
Kirche, in Twist street, whose Ger
man-speaking congregation, though in
straitened circumstances, made shift
to pay the expenses. with the result
that the bells. which are described as
very fine trio, are now erected in
the church in question.

Jones, always uhlucky. was now on

upon Jenkins mercy.
No. 37A-that was the house. He
mounted the steps. There was only n
dim light pickering in the hall, but he
gave the bell vigorous pull. Soon
he found himself face to face with q

RepairinQ a Buckled Shin.

In the great explosion at Halifax
the British ship Curaca had her back
broken. When the vessel was re-
toated it was found that she was
buckled to the extent of nine feet two
inches at the bow and six feet six
inches at the stern. In that condition
says the Scientific American, she was
temporarily repaired and brought tc
New York, where she was put in dry
dock, and the water was pumped out
until she touched the keel blocks amid
ships. Next the plating on both sides
of the ship was cut at the point where
the vessel had buckled, and more wa.
ter was pumped out, until both eEdi
settled gently down upon the kee'
blocks and the vessel was once more
straight. The task Of Joining the two
parts was comparatively simple.

Germs Combat PareSjs.

1t is reported that rather remark
able results in the treatment of gen
eral paresis have been obtained in
Hamburg, Germany, by inoculating the
patient with the germs of malaria
and recurrent fever. Professor Wey-
gandt made this announcement con-
corning his experiments at recent
meeting of the Hamburg Medical as
sOciatiOn:
"As result, the remissions and
the Improvement were much more
marked than they had been previous
ly. when the cases were left untreated
or were treated by the older methods
In tie 80 cases treated for from four
to - months, the following results
were secured:
Ability to resume duties of calling,
per cent partial resumption of call
ing, % per cent; ability to work at
something, 10 per cent; ability to work
part time. 6 per cent; domicillary care
now sufficient, % per cent; no improve
ment, 10 per cent; progressively worse,
per cent.
Accordingly, there was remis-
sion in IS per cent and marked re-
mission in As per cent. The neuro-
logic and serologic Improvement was
not equal to the clinical and practical
progress"

TaIiors "Goose" First Use

While gas ranges are the common
place thing in every city home today
and gas has upwards of 1000 indus
trial uses, such applications are Of
comparatively recent origin.
After the successful use Of gas for
lighting, the first generally used gas
utensil was the tailors goose" or
pressing iron, an investigation made
by the American Gas association
shows.
Then came the line of domestic gas
burning appliances for cooking pur-
poses, which grew from one that APP
peared modestly on restaurant coun-
tiers in the form of a chatting dish,
with its heat supplied from crude
burner. A plumber devised that and
it was the start of gas stoves. AS
late as 30 years ago, no gas stoves
were offered for sale in this country.
