half BILLION A
YEAR FOR JAZZ

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14-Ameri-
ca is paying something around a
half billion dollars a year Cor the
musical Instruments on which 10
play its Jazz, according 70 estimates
of responsible experts who bas,
their calculations on department Of
census reports.
This includes the manufacturing
not the retail - price Of pianos,
organs, monographs. talking ma
chimes, violins. trOmbones and ga
cooks, with all the other varied as
sentiments Of sound making devices
purchased during the ;ast year.
The census report for 1919, which
is the last compiled, shows that the
value of Manufactured musical in
struments in that year was $500
905.149. This report, just made
public, shows a tremendous increase
in the industry over preceding years.
Back IN 1919, when the ladies
were hoop skirts and consequently
couldn't get around 10 the wild
gesticulauons OF jazz notes now in
vogue. the total value Of musical in
struments manufactured n this
country reached but $2,5S0,715.
Even in 1914-up TO which time
foreign manufacturers, chiefly Ger
man, monopolized the American
markets the manufacturing value
was only S49,323.415. Then, in the
next five years Of the war, il jump
ed $2SO0OO,OOO and since that time
there has been a steady increase.
The innovation Of the photograph
is largely responsible for the huge
jump, il is said
In 1899. the value of manufacture
ed talking machines and phono,
, graphs was only S2.246,274. But II
jumped TO S15S.547,S7O in 1919 and

NAVY BUDGET PROGRESSES.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-(By A
P.)-Judged by the Roadway made
today by the house Subcommittee
on appropriations which will frame
10. next years navy budget Will sail
through unruffled seas.
There was no Indication at the
close OF the first hearing behind
closed doors OF another fight like
that which marked the passage Of
the bin last spring. The navy de-
partment, the budget bureau and
Chairman Kelley's Subcommittee
conducting the hearing were in fun
accord on the enlisted personnel
50. 00O-and the same number Of
ships as are now IN commission.
The construction program viii
continue and the question OF scrap
ping holds over until all the pow
ers have ratified the naval treaty.
Members OF the committee pre-
dioted that hearings would be brief
and that the bill would go through
substantially az &c stands today.
Chairman Kelley explained that
since the house had fought so re-
Gently over the size Of the navy and
had fixed Il at $4,000, there was no
reason for a change. since nothing
had developed 10 make an upset OF
the total seem necessary.
It was understood the total ap-
preparation asked for would be

POISONING DANGER FROM
AUTOMOBILE EXHAUST GAS

Carbon monoXide poisoning is one OF
the most widely distributed and most
frequent of industrial accidents, says the
u. S. Public Health Service. The gas
is without color, odor, or taste. 1t is
an ever-present danger about blast and
coke furnaces and foundries. 1t may be
found in building having a leaky fur
mace or chimney or a gas stove without
f1ue connection, such as a tenement,
tailor shop, or boarding house. The
exhaust gases of gasoline automobiles
contain from 4 to II per cent. of carbon
monoxide, and in closed garages men are
not infrequently found dead beside
running motor. A similar danger may
arise from gasoline engines in launches
The gas is formed also in stoke-rooms,
in gun turrets on battleships, in petrole-
UNI refineries and in the eblaRc soda
process in cement and brick plants. In
underground work It may appear as the
result of shot firing, mine explosions, or
mine fires. or in tunnels from automobile
exhausts or from coal or oil burning To-
