Bonus leaders appear to be in doubt
as to the conclusions of other Senators
who are still keeping their own coun-
sci. A few of the bonus men still
cling TO the forlorn hope that Presi-

giving his approval to a bill which
does not provide sources OF revenue to
finance Il.

country.
SO far as can be learned the sole
basis for bonus eventualities rests on
the scheme ultimately to finance IL
with the results OF foreign debt re-
funding operations. which have only
'.st begun. The bonus Senators still
insist that sufficient money will be
realized from this quarter during the
next few months TO Justify the passage

Only One Man Fired Upon Border

BELFAST. Feb. II tAssociated Press. J..
-Forty-two Ulster Cnionists, who were
kidnapped during the recent raid across
the border from the South, have been re
leased. Michael Collins, head of the pro-
visional government, telegraphed Colonial
Secretary Churchill today that he had
succeeded in obtaining the liberation of
this number of prisoners.
Last night was the quietest Belfast has
experienced since the outbreak of disor-
derS. which have taken a toll of more
than 80 lives The only incident reported
early this morning was the firing Of a shot
Mt a watchman in the Mills Falls district.
He escaped injury.
The situation on the border continues
to be one of danger. owing to the proX-
unity Of rival forces at some points. News
of the arrangement for the creation of
lasGn commissions on each side of the
frontier also was received with Satisfac-
ton. Apparently. however. considerable
preliminary work is necessary before the
commission can begin to function.
listers army of special constables on
the border has deliberately equipped de
fences. protected by barbed wire entanglc-
ments and sfnd bags. 1t is believed that
the Irish Republican army is equally well
armed and stationed.

MAKING WINDOW GLASS.
Mass l. Blown in Cylinders and Then Is
FIattened.

The making OF window glass is at pre-
sent of more than ordinary Importance
because of efforts being made to foster
our independence from the Germany
monopoly that existed before the war
It may not be generally known that
the sheet of glass with which we are so
familiar is made by bhe roundabout way
OF blowing the glass into cylinders, which
are then slit and fastened into sheets.
The Jumps of raw glass are attached
in the furnace to the ends Of long tubes
then heated to Il sufficient temperature
to permit of blowing At first the mass
takes a roughly globular shape, which, as
is cools Is reheated, and, under the con
tinued manipulation of the blower take
on a pear shape. The third reheating
and blowing forms Il long cylinder of
even section, so long that pits are. pro
vided for its accommodation, the blower

long. narrow bubble in the pit while he

The cylinder is then placed on n bench.

SAFER TO TRAVEL NOW.
Danger on Railroads Not One Third
That of 1889.

Thirty years ago the average Ameri
can citizen made eight railway journeys
a year and now he makes twelve. or half
as many again. The average length OF
the ride thirty years ago was p miles
and now the trip has heightened TO 3S
miles. according to Il lot of statistics
compiled and issued by the interstat
commerce commission.
The figures bearing on the danger to
life and limb as the old expression
had it. have changed in the other diree-
much again, the danger is shown TO be
less than half as great as ii used TO be.
Some people ENJOY statistics. Here are
some:
\ man having ridden once in the last
% years, his chance of being killed was
one in 9l .O00. 900 Or, if he took one trin
each year during that period, he came as
near losing his life as one tl) is near
to ?. 100 COO. One ride taken last wear i'm
posed n hazard on his life only one III
in 5.613000, and on the twelve estimated
customary journeys he was as far from
jeopardy as $4,000 is greater than one
Altogether. the railways of the United
states carried in 1920 about l,900000,00C
passengers, with one killed for each
group of 5673.000 carried, while in a
total of 472,000,000 people carried in 1889
the death rate was one IN $4,000. The
danger to life of railway travellers in
1920 was, therefore, less than one-third
of what il was in 1889, most of the re-
duction having been made since 1907
There have been bad years and good
years. but the general trend. it is shown
throughout the whole period has been
toward increasing safety for the travel
ing public.

HAIFA, Palestine, Feb. lT.-Acciden-
tai discovery of a consignment of several
thousand automatic pistols and $4,000
rounds of ammunition, which were being
smuggled into Palestine In boxes supposed
to contain bcehives, has aroused much
comment and tended to revive the bitter
feelings between the Arabs and Jews.
Sir Herbert Samuel. the high commits

Ninety-six boxes supposed to contain
heehives were being unloaded at Haifa
when one of them was broken. revealing

consignment. which had been addressed
to Jews, was seized The head of the jew

being implicated in the affair.
The Zionist leaders have disayowed all
responsibility and condemned the Incl

been going on for some time and that
