taken each year from the coral beds
of Japan. The work is done by divers,
the master diver receiving and grad

sale and exporting firms keep repre-

the property if the indications

100 feet.

STATES GET WAR MATERIALS
FOR USE IN ROAD BUILDING

Surplus war material valued at
$139,773,986 was delivered to the
States for use in road construction
up to July /, reports the Bureau Of
Public Roads, United States Depart
ment Agriculture. The material,
which consisted Off sorts of supplies
and equipment suitable for road
building for which the War Depart

In value of material delivered, Tex
as and New York lead with nearly
$8,000,000 worth of material, and
every State with the exception of five
of the smaller ones received supplies
valued at over $1,O0O,OOO.
This material has been of great
value in road construction, and there
is hardly a county in the United
States in which some of it has not
been used.
Probably of greatest value has been
the 29,325 motor vehicles distributed,
consisting of 24,752 trucks and 4,573
automobiles, and in addition a large
number of tractors.
The system OF distribution has
been so arranged that the State re-

In some cases they fall behind in al

particularly desired. Many Of the

1t will be noted that during the
first three years of the committee's s
existence the amount spent for pub.
lie printing was practically cut in
half. This was accomplished by re-
ducing the volume Of reports printed
aby state officials and by The cllnna-
| ton of much useless duplication in
the public printing. The increased
cost for the past few years has been
due to advanced prices for printing
and to the inclusion of both the tenn
porary and permanent code of laws,
which the constitution requires to be
printed twice at each recurring period
Of ten years. Under the Contract
made for the publication of the per-
manent code this committee will re-
ceive a considerable sum from the
sale of the code to members of the
bar and others. This money will be
refunded to the state treasury and
should be deducted from the appro-
priation of 1922.
Comparing 1914 and 1922
In order to make an accurate COM
parison of 1914 and 1922 it is neces-
sary to make somewhat of an analy-
SIS OF the 1922 appropriation. Of the
total of $76,851 appropriated this
year $49,274.52 will be expended for
public printing proper as against
$39,495.59 for 1914. Reports of
boards, commissions, etc., created
since 1914, changes in tho law which
required payment from the public
printing funds instead of from de-
partment funds, together with reports
of special committees authorized by
the general assembly, accounts for
$5,833:58 of the difference, leaving
actually spent for the same work
only $4,487.49 more in 1922 than in
1914, when everyt ne knows, or can
easily ascertain, that the cost of
printing is now practically doubled
no joint committee on printing in
1922 the probabilities are that the
appropriation would have been con-
siderably in excess Of 100000.
In comparing the years 1914 and
1922 the extra session Of 1914 has
been included. If it is believed that
this is unfair the following figures
will show that in volume of work over
which the committee could have no
control the comparison is, if anything
unfair to 1922.
The acts of 1914, both regular and
special sessions, contained 1888 pages
whereas the acts of 1922 contained
948 pages. In 1914 for both regular
and special sessions, there were print
ed 1882 pages of bills, while for the
session of 1922 there were printed A.
240 page Of bills.
There was also appropriated for the
operating expenses Of the committee
for 1922, $4,991; for equipment, ST.
300; and as a revolving fund to pur-
chase office supplies, $4,000. Of the
amount for operating expenses sew

The statistics quoted above portray
of those who are mentally abnormal

and the community. These persons
commit a most disproportionate
number of our crimes and unless they
have been properly trained in child
hood remain social problems through
out their lives. Their pitabe yet
