disturbances of the system in gener-

ages ten to twelve, Is perhaps the
most essential in elementary educa-

rapidly and the brain has practically
ceased growing; it is a time for stor-

proportionately in size to the arteries

VALUE OF VALUATIONS.

Representative Wood of Indiana,-A request was made for an increase of $280OO0 for the valuation of the rail roads of the United States. To me this valuation business presents a very dubious aspect. 1 believe that under the present arrangements it will soon terminate SO far as 1t is possible for It to terminate. But in passing 1t is worth while to have a little resume of what this thing has cost the United States government. It was started in 1913 when it was estimated by those who were appearing i'll favor of the proposi- ton that at the outside it would cost the United States government not to exceed $5,000,000. A little more than nine years have passed since the com mencement of this valuation, and 1t IS not yet complete, but 1t has cost the government $23,675 ,0O0. The appropria- tion made this year for the completl- ton of this work is $1,O0O00O. The gentlemen who are immediately con nected with 1t claim that 1t can not be accomplished for that amount, and they asked for an additional approprlatio'1 of $28O,OOO with a promise of compile, tion by July 1, 1924-Congresslonal Record
