Where tho Circus Got Its Name

The name "circus' in its original

Rome, and the exhibitions given con.
sisted of games or chariot races.
The chief Of these buildings was the
Circus Mnximus. which was rebuilt
under Caesar. 1t was 1875 feet. or
about nine city blocks, long; 625 feet
wide and more than 400 feet high.
There were seats for 100000 people.
Later IL was enlarged to accommodate
2jO. 600 spectators. and In the fourth
century A. d. II was a"nin altered and
improved 30 that 3s5 900 people could

Philippine Budget
Is Slashed a Third

MANILA p. |. Nov. 30-(Associated
Press MaiD-The government budget
for the year 1922 as recommended to
the legislature by Governor General
Leonard Wood, amounts to $S6,269,-
296, or about SO, 600, 900 less than the
amount appropriated for the year
1921. 1t was explained that although
the revenue of the government next
year would amount only to $31,525,
III the current surplus at the begin
ming of 1922, amounting to $5,9S2,O76
would give the government ample
funds to cover its needs during the
ensuing year. The surplus, it was
pointed out, arises from the fact that
appropriations have been made for
certain public works, but that the
money has not yet been released.
The largest single recommendation
made was for the department of pub
lie instruction which amounts to
50, 1927 ,646. The sun of 100000 is re-
commended for the University of the
Philippines, in addition to the amount
for the department of public in
struction.

Australia Has Capital
To Use in New Guinea

SYDNEY, N. S. W., Dec. 5-(Asso-
ciated Press MaiD-A large amount
of capital is ready to be invested in
the former German plantations in the
inundated territory of New Guinea, it
is understood here, following the an
nouncement of Premier Hughes that
the government intended to dispose
of the holdings on a freehold basis.
The policy is in accordance with
the advice of the majority report of
the Royal Commission which inquired
recently into the future administra-
ton of the territories. One member
of the commission, Judge Murray who
is Lieutenant governor of Papua, eX-
pressed himself in favor of %nationali-
cation of the properties which are
mainly cocoanut plantations. The
two other members opposed this on
the ground that copra production
was not such an urgent requirement
as to justify the undertaking. The
movement involves an expenditure Of
approximately e. 500, 900. A proposal
leasing the plantations also was re-
jected becauseof the large capital ne
cessary and because Investors would
find it difficult to obtain an advance
on leasehold securities. The total
value of the former enemy properties
in private ownership has been esti-
mated at ga, 300, 900, of which the four
largest German companies owned
plantations valued at 92,14 ,OOO.
Much criticism has been aimed re-
Gently at the appropriation Board
which is administering the properties,
it being declared that the plantations
are in a ruinous condition, Chairman
Lucas, of the board denied these
statements and declared that the
plantations are cared for as well as
they were under the previous Ger
man owners.

WladivostOk Misery
Reaches High Pitch

TOKYO. Dec. 7-(Associated Press
MaiD-Misery and suffering in Nladi-
vostok among the Russian population
is greater than at any time since the
overthrow of the Czarist government.
Thousands are out of work, have no
food and most OF them are ~scantily
clad. To make matters worse. fuel
prices are eXOrbitant.
These conditions are described in
a letter from Mrs. Pray, local repre-
sentative, to the officials of the Am
erican Red Cross in Tokyo.
Some time ago the Red Cross chap
ter appealed to its members n a
fund of about 500 yen was raised. The
Vladivostok workers asked that no
supplies be sent into the city, as Gus
toms duties on all things are cXorbit-
ant. They desired only cash contribu-
tions and their plan is to purchase ma
terials from which the Russian re-
fugees will make fancy needle-work.
Samples of this work are on their way
to Japan and the chapter here Will
take orders and forward the funds to
Vladivostok. Those directing the re-
lief work intend to make the Rus
slams earn by producing. The com
mittee intends to find the market for
the production and furnish the initial
capital.
