Average Dental Bill
 Is SIS Per Patient
Survey Conducted By Dr. Maurice Leven for the Con=
 mittee of the Costs of Medical Care

Washington, D. c. April 22-The total annual dental bill of the 24,- 000,000 individuals treated each year by the nations 56,000 dentists in private practice amounts to $446,000, 1000, an average of SIS per patient, according to an analysis of Dental Practice and Income just completed for the American Dental association by Dr Maurice Leven, staff member of the com mittee on the costs of medical care.
 Dr Leven's figures are based on study for the year 1929 covering 20 states and the results, through interpolation, have been extended to obtain estimates for the entire United States.
 The survey was conducted by the committee on the study of dental practice of the American Dental association in collaboration with the committee on the costs of med ical care, which, under the chair manship of Dr Ray Lyman Wilbur, will in the autumn issue it's final report including recommendations based on it's exhaustive five-year study into the problem of "the de- livery of adequate, scientific med ical service to all the people, rich and poor, at cost which can be reasonably met by them in their respective stations of life"
 The annual net (median) income of dentists in the 20 states was found to be $4,10O and their gross (median) income, $6,600.
 Other important facts revealed by the study include:
 1. Approximately 20 per cent of the individuals in the 20 states studied received dental service during the year.
 2. From 36 to 43 per cent of the amount paid dentists by patients goes to pay the expenses of pro- fessional practice, such as rent, ma terials. and salaries of assistants.
 3. More than 30 per cent of the dentists in the 20 states surveyed had net income of less than $3000, and about 38 per cent of more than $500O. The middle income was approximately $4100.
 4. Gross incomes of dentists in metropolitan centers are 100 per cent higher than in towns with a population of less than 5000, due partly to the concentration of spe- cialists in the larger cities.
 5. Dentists incomes in the south are lower than elsewhere, while of the large cities surveyed. New York city dentists have the highest net incomes, followed by those practice ing in Los Angeles, Chicago and Philadelphia.
 6. Losses of dentists due to un- collectable bills are small, where TO percent of the dentists estima- ted that their collection losses do not exceed five per cent of their total charges.
 '. The leverage" dentist treats eight patients a day and comes in contact with 430 different patients during the year.
 Dentists with wealthy patients suffer greatest percentage of col lection losses.
 The hourly income which dent ists try to maintain is higher in cities than in the smaller commu- mites. In places under 10000 in

BAD WEATHER FAILS TO HALT
 RADIO FLYERS
Better and More Constant Use of Instruments
 Responsible

Kansas City, Mo. (UP)-In- creasing proficiency of airplane pilots in flying by their instruments has nearly eliminated bad weather as the chief obstacle to the prog ress of commercial aviation. Proof of pilots ability to fly by their instruments is recorded by the Transcontinental and Western Airways, a coast-to-coast service, which has completed 79.6 per cent of all scheduled flights over an ex- tended period. The percentage of completed flights was set at ap- proximately 90 per cent for last winter.
 Blind Flying
 Only ice and violent thunder head. weather can keep mail planes grounded now, because of the pilots experience in flying blind." Passenger service, more careful, some day will be able, through the use of improved in- struments and radio beams, to fly and land under conditions of little or no visibility, according to ex- perts.
 Passenger plane pilots, on many of the major lines, now are being trained to fly entirely by their in- struments, guided on their courses only by radio telephones and radio directional beacons.
 The pilots first must learn to rely entirely upon their instru- ments and ignore physical senses.
 Covered Cockpit
 They first are taught to make turns while in a covered cockpit. Later, as their aptitude increases for flying without glimpse at the earth, they become able to complete all ajrplane maneuvers directed only by radio devices.
 To enable all passenger line pilots to fly their planes blind" when the weather becomes bad, a complete system of radio com munications must be installed all along the routes. The T.. w. A. already has completed two way'' radio telephone system. link ing airports with their planes at all times as they fly from coast to-coast. Radio beacons also have been placed along the major routes. adding to the safety of the passengers.

population, $5 per hour is the me- dian rate, but in cities of cover l 100000 the median is $8.
 In cities, dentists frequently con- suit references or rating bureaus to ascertain a patients credit stand ing. In smaller communities such procedure is considered unneces- sary, for the practitioners usually have direct knowledge of the finan- cial status of their clients.
 Dentists practicing among veal thy clientele suffer larger pre- centage of uncollectable bills than do those whose patients are of low CT financial levels.
 The higehest gross income are found in Arizona and New York Lowest in Georgia.
 Gross incomes reported by the dentists cooperating in the study varied from almost nothing to 8 maximum of .$193,000. The lowest median income for any state was found in Georgia, $4500, followed by Missouri and Mississippi, with $4900 and $4920 respectively. Ari- zona had the highest median gross income, $9930 after which comes New York state with a median of $9600.
 The complete specialists reported the highest net incomes, averaging $8600, while the corresponding tn- comes for partial specialists and general practitioners average $5,- 800 and $4600 respectively.
 The results of Dr Leven's study are being published in book form by the University of Chicago Press under the title of ''The Practice of Dentisty and the Incomes of Dent ists in Twenty States: 1929."

AMERICAN GOODS FOR ENGLAND TO
 BE WELL TAXED
Tariff Is Just Doubled on Some Products From This Country = Starts Tuesday Morning
BY HARRY l.. PERCY Irvsffod Rv-aee CfaR CorrQer.nr,d

United Press stan Correspondcnt) London, April 22-(UP)--Amer- ican and other foreign semi-fin-
 ished steel and iron products en- | tering England will be taxed from | 2n to 33 1-3 per cent during the next three months and the tariff on most manufactured goods will be doubled from 10 per cent to 20 per cent after midnight Monday. While the iron and steel tariffs will have an adverse affect on American trade, reduction of ''an- ti-dumping" duties of 50 per cent on American products will tend to
 balance the iron and steel in- creases.
 Tariffs on luxuries and semi- luxurles go up an additional IS to 20 per cent. The increases were provided in the first report of the tariff advisory committee appoint ed to levy protectionist duties. United States imports which for nierly paid 50 per cent ''anti- dumping" duty were revised as follows:
 Cameras, radio tubes, stockings (silk or artificial silk), silk hose. 33 Ia per cent; machinery, tools, electrical goods, manufacturers of wood. apparel. boots, shoes, and rubber products, 20 per cent; agri-
 cultural machinery and tools 15 per cent.
 The new duties, which Chancel- Tor of the Exchequer Neville Cham-
 berlain estimated would produce revenue of 5,000,000 pounds sterl- ing annually, affect 100 classes of articles.

Spring Pilgrimage To
 Rosary Shrine May I
Annual Event Brings to Close Solemn Novena Opened
 Summit, N. J., To-day.

The Dominican Nuns of Rosary Shrine live a strictly cloisercd life. Their days and nights are devoted to chanting the divine of- flee and the recitation of the r0s- ary which is kept up perpetualiy. All through the busy days and dur ing the lonely hours of the night the nuns succeed one another at the hour of guard before the blessed sacrament, perpetually ex- posed on the Rosary altar, so that the rosary is a continuous pleading to God for the needs of mankind. The prayers of the cloister are well known and appreciated by the faithful and even by many non- Catholics who claim to have ben efited by them.
 Many thousands of favors have already been reported as received after joining in the novenas and pilgrimages, using the blessed roses and having the relics applied. The Rosary Pilgrim, an attractive little magazine printed by the nuns con- tains many excerpts from such let ters of thanksgiving. Enrolment may be made in the Purgatorfan society established at the shrine before and after the devotoins on Sunday or they may be mailed in. This society is for the living as well as for the dead, and it's men- bers enjoy many spiritual advan- tages including those of the per- petual adoration and perpetual TO- sary. not to mentoin sharing in many daily masses.
 The shrine is early reached by train or automobile. D. L. & W. trains leaving Hoboken at 11:15 a. m; 12:15 p. m. and 1880 D. m., will have extra coach service. The shrine is ten minutes walk from the station. Hudson Tubes from Hoboken connect at Newark Public Service Terminal with buses for Rosary Shrine every ten minutes. Buses from Elizabeth run as of ten. The new Shrine buildings are at the corner of Morris and Springfield avenues, but the Adoia- ton chapel where the Holy Wind- ing Sheet is preserved is a short distance away on New Englarn avenue.
