The high prices for crude rubber
which obtained a month or SO ago
because of the British monopoly s
control of production has brought
about a greatly increased use of re-
claimed rubber. the Department of
Commerce announced last week. In
addition. the manufa cturers are
eGuipping their plants to handle
much larger qua ntities of old rub

There are fewer Government EN-
ployes now in Washington than at
any time since the war and during
the last half of the calendar wear
1925 1854 were separated from the
service. The number now on duty
in Washington is placed at 81 sol.
Taking up the picks they left idle
more than five months ago, an army
of miners in the anthracite fields Of
Pennsylvania went back to work
last week and long trains of coal
laden cars began the distribution
once more Of hard coal. The mines
for a while will produce only about
25 per cent of their normal output
and much Of this will be needed for
operation Of the mines themselves

A minority report, however, recon-

on the ground that there il no neces-
sity for it. and the Department Of
Justice joins formally in this view of
the matter.
The annual appropriation bill for
the Navy was passed last week by
the Senate. carrying $316,433. 900. The
Senate restored to the bill several
sitems for aviation, which were
knocked out by the House. The bill
now goes to conference.
Steps were taken in both houses of
Congress last week to put curb on
the many Investigations which are
undertaken every session by con-
mittees of Congress. The steps con-
template a closer and more thorough
examination of the subject before a
formal authorization is given for its
investigation. The cost of congress

veloped little Of value has been enor-

Aviation.
Two Of the aviators who took part
in the famous around-theworld flight
have resigned from the Army and are
planning trip into the Arctic to de-
termine the extent of unknown ter
ritory In that part of the world and to
claim it for the United States if it
exists. The officers, Lieut.. Leigh
Wade and Lieut.. II. H. ogden, an
nounced their plans last week. The
expedition will be backed by alumni
of several universities and will be
known as the American I-Diyersity
Alumni Expedition.
The House naval committee has
agreed on a f1ve-year building program
for the Nays aviation branch. which
contemplates the expenditure of nearly
500 100000. The amount is about
two-fifths of that contemplated by
Rear Admiral Moffett, chief of naval
aviation. as necessary to provide an
adequate Air Service for any emer-
gency. Among the craft which would
be built are two dirigibles, each of
them three times the size of the
wrecked Shenandoah and 1000 new
planes.
Investigation by the general staff
of the Army to discover the source
of certain propaganda within the
Army in favor of d separate air force
and other policies has resulted in
disciplinary action against two majors
In the Air Service. both of whom were
reprima nded and one of whom was
transferred to a post outside of Wash

seeking to influence certain changes
by methods which did not progress
through military channels"

CHICAGO, Dec. 24.-Judge Fran

Cages court of domestic relations,
decided something should be done
toward contributing Christmas cheer
TO the wives Of fifty-four men now
held in the Bridewell Jail.
So the Judge had the wives called
into court.
How many Of YOU" ne said,
would he to have your husbands
for a Christmas present."
A murmur ran through the court
room. The wives Immediately
punched in little groups and seem
ingly were discussing with each
other the judges offer.
WELL" said the judge, you don't
need to talk It over among your
selves, come up and tell me how
happy you are"
A rather good.looking middle-aged
woman stepped up to the bench
and leaned over toward Judge Bor-
ELI. In a confinedtial tone she said:
"Say. judge. you amt gonna spoil
the only peace I've had in years, are
your"
Judge Morell leaned back in his
chair.
80 that's what's the matter out
there"
He called another to the bench.
This one. rather naughty in
dividual, was emphatic in her state
ment that II can do very we'll with
out him, thank you"
Let mine stay there. It'll do
him good" another one added.
Assistant States Attorney Marie
Andersen and the judge then en-
deavored to impress upon the women
that sometimes the Yuletide spirit
aided greatly in effecting reconcilia-
ton.
These addresses at the end were
greeted with:
I'm glad to be rid of mine, right
now"
Say" said another. III see that
mine gets a good meal but he sure
belongs where he is"
That" said Judge Borelli. means

COOLIDGE
WILL START
CHRISTMAS
President to Throw Switch
Tonight Lighting Tree
at White House.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-Christ-
mas In the White House and in
American homes will officially be-
gin when President Coolidge throws
switch tonight lighting the gigan'
tic yule tree in the executive
grounds.
But, as far as the White House
is concerned, it will not be the same
Christmas as was celebrated, say,
when Garfield was President, or
when Dolly Madison held the keys
to the ladders and cellars.
Once White House eggnog was as
famous and as reliable" as the
White House itself. The eggnog rec
cred one of the best.
Tonight the huge bowl once used
for White House eggnog will be
empty and the walls Of the old man.
sion will not ring with the solemn
toast-"To the President Of the
United States"
After hearing his choir sing
Christmas carols, Coolidge plans to
stay within doors with his family and
retire at his usually early hour.
Fifty years ago tomorrow a train
of carriages several blocks long
stood around the executive mansion
while their occupants wished Presi-
dent Grant a merry Christmas and
received a glass of sherry for the
courtesy of their call. But tomor-
row there will be no calls. Mr.. and
Mrs. Coolidge and son John will be
in the White House and they will
only emerge n attend church serv-
ices in the morning and perhaps take
a stroll In the Afternoon.
