MAGNETIC COMPASS IiIG7LY IMPORTANT
Capt, Pollock Warns N2yigat02S
 to Study Its Use

Washington, Dec. IT tP}--The de- vcopmcnt of the gyrocompass has led "to a rcgrct,ible lack of interest ir and understanding of the import ance of the magnetic compass" said Captain Edwin T. Pollock, supcrin- tcndent of the naval observatory, }. Horday in his annual report,
 While not going into details on the question. tho report referred to the tendency" 10 neglect the mag retic compasscs as "a dangerous practice"
 "On the smaller vessels. such as dcstroyers and submarines. which are equipped with gyrocompasscs, ' he said, there Is a decided tendency to neglect the magnetic compasscs and to place entire dependence on the gyrocompass. This is q danger ous practice from the navigational point of view and efforts are being made to improve this condition.
 Reports also show that some of the younger officers are not familiar with the deviation of the magnetic compasscs and to correct this con- dition it is urged that more young officers should take the compass course. The compass school at the naval observatory has been kept available at all times for officers de- string to take the compass course, but du. ing the fiscal year only one officer took the course and he only partially and hurriedly.
 Excellent results" arc said tc have been obtained in sending time

societies.
Chief Markets Japan and China
The State timber trusts are mostly
working with the help of money given
by the State credit institutions. At
the same time, some trusts have sue
ceeded in securing the participation
of foreign capital, the latter some
times taking a direct part in the bust
ness and sometimes through the mix
ed societies for the total sum of 2
millions p. st.
The growth Of the timber exporta-
ton not only in the European part Of
the U. S. S. R. but also in the regions
of the Far East is attracting con-
siderable attention.
The chief markets are Japan and
China. In the presence of certain con-
ditions and practically with the as
sistance Of foreign capital, the Sow
let Far Eastern timber can be for
warded to European markets.
