J. s. BUREAU AIDS TO
 MAKE ELEVATORS SAFE
Seeking to Evolve New Methods Whereby Lifts May be
 Thoroughly Safeguardcd

Washington. Jan. 2. - Since modern cities must continue 10 sprout skyscrapers, and modern in- vention must provide methods of getting sizable masses of the popu- lation up and down within those structures, the United States bur eau of standards is seeking. in as sociation with insurance compan ies, manufacturers, and engineer, to evolve new methods by whic the process may be safeguarded.
 A prime requisite to the operi ton of the high-speed elevatoi which alone make skyscrapel practicable is a dependable inter locking mechanism. that will hol doors shut unless the elevator ca is in proper position for their open ing, and function to prevent th' dropping of elevator cars within shafts. To the perfection of such a mechanism bureau experts hay, addressed themselves.
 One device which the bureau has constructed for testing interlocking devices puts each machine through 100000 repetitions of its functions. The mechanism Is observed and ex- amined before, during and after the testing. Its failures. potential

 In times of peace and war the secretary of aeronautics would as sign to the war and navy depart ments for duty aeronautical units which the president might deem nec- essary.
 Commissioned officers of the air force would be appointed to con- duct an air academy or academies to train officers in various lines of tech nical work. Enlisted men of the air force would be recruited from the present manner of the army and navy.
 The commissioned personnel of the air force. 1t is declared. need not exceed 2,OO0; not more than 500 warrant officers would be needed. and not more than 10000 enlisted men. Provision would be made for an aviation reserve.
 England and Italy. BUgadier Gen eral Mitchell points out, have sep arate air forces; Germany has had one for some eight years and Japan Is engaged in formulating her own department of aeronautics. France has a department of aeronautics, al- though not as completely separated and independent as the others.

MEX|CANS TAXED
 HEAVILY FOR ARMY
War Dept. Receives Lions Share Of Governments Receipts

Mexico City, Jan. ?, - Mexico's s financial obligations total $S0S,O70,- = 015 in American money, it is stated in a report just made public by the minority members of the chamber of deputies budget commission.
 Appealing for careful considera- tion of appropriations for 1925 the minority commissioners, who helong to the United Radical bloc, assert that the time has come for the re moval of the tax leyying power from the hands of tho chief executive. For half a century, they declare. the people of Mexico. through their representatives, have been deprived by revolution and civil strife Of the right to levy taxes and spend their revenues.
 In outlining the history Of MeXi- can public finances during the last 100 years, the minority committee mems study points out that budget deficits have been the cancer which has sapped the governments finan- cial strength and constantly added 10 its indebtedness.
 The war department is credited with having taken the lions share
New Britain herald., 1925-01-02

of the governments receipts. From 1918 to 1922, the percentage Of the budget total devoted to military necessities fluCtuated between GO and 70. Second only in importance was the part devoted to the services on the public debt, winch was allotted $56,5o0.0OO in 1923 and 1924, al- though the De la Hucrta revolution of Dec. 6, 1923, forced the suspen- sion of payments. The item in the 1924 budget for public debt service. however, was S%1,0O0,0O0, or 9 per cent of the total
 The budget now in the making, the report continues, must accept q deficit of S3,500,O0O from last year, which increases by presidential de- cree in various items brings up to nearly s4,500,000. This. added to the principal and accrued interest represented under the Lamont agreement covering the external debt and other obligations guaran- teed by inc government amounting 10 $16O,500.Ouo; the internal bank ing debt; the debt assumed in talk ing over the Tehuantepec railway; unpaid salaries of federal employees. and approved claims for revolution ary damages already totaling s47,- o0O.0O0, makes a grand total of SS0S,070,0I5.
 It is this amount the minority re- port asks congress and the executive to consider in framing the 1925 budget.
