has received permission from the
Mexican government for air serv-
ice between Mexico City and Hous-
ton, Washington, New York, Mont
real, and Toronto and between
Mexico City and San Diego, San
Francisco, Portland, Ore, and
Vancouver, B. c.
He said a petition for the SER
vice is now pending before the cab
in Washington, but action by the
Mexican-U. S. air conference open

the determining factor.

MOIST AIR, NOT WATER

Whales do not spout water. Moist
air blown from the whales lungs
condenses into drops of moisture
in the colder atmosphere, giving the
appearance Of a fountain of water.

METHOD CHANGED

The size of a cannon was de-
termined by the weight of its pro-
jectile until the middle of the last
century. Now it is measured by the
diameter of the muzzle in inches
or centimeters.

Roper Says Virginia
Will Net Most Jobs
In '46 From Builders
BY the Associated Press.

% t&iC <lcouSlatcd Eitcs.
RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 1.-vir-
ginians will receive more employ
ment in the construction industry
in 1916 than ever before in the
history Of the State, according to
President Wilfred A. Roper of the
Virginia State Chamber of Com
nerce, who also predicts full en-
ployment ahead for all Virginians"
in the New Year.
This years employment in con-
struction should exceed even the
height of wartime work, the State
Chamber president said.
Highway construction, Mr.. Roper
said, may total $4,000, 900 unless
the State Highway Commission is
unable to obtain labor at satisfac-
tory prices for contract work. The
commission does not plan to COM
pete with private construction on
a high market, he added.
virginia's tourist trade is ex.
pected to absorb $4,000 workers,
and already has doubled its en-
ployment, MIR. Roper reported. Al
most every available facility In this
trade is doing capacity business
; and 100 per cent expansion is
planned.
State and municipal projects also
represent staggering sums" Mr..
Roper said. Investments of $685.
400 are proposed by Virginia munich
palities, q chamber committee re-
Gently reported. State investments
for capital outlay on new school
buildings, hospitals and other struc-
lures are estimated at between $685.
100000 and $70,00o,000. Funds for
many State construction works have
been accumulated in the war years
to be used in the next two years.
More than 100000, 900 worth of
new military and naval installations
were placed in Hampton Roads dur
ing the war, according to the Hamp-
ton Roads Maritime Exchange. AL
though many Of these facilities will
be inactivated this peacetime year,
1t is expected that the share of Gov
eminent spending for national de-
tense in this area in 1916 will be
greater than in any other peacetime
year, the State chamber is informed.
MIR. Roper said.

Two House Members
Charge U. 5. Agencies
Hoard Surplus Goods
a. thu Associated press.

By the Associated Press.
Cries arose en- Capitol Hill today
that Federal agencies are boarding
surplus war goods and are ignoring
priority requests of veterans.
The protests were coupled with
demands for prompt action by Con-
gress when 1t returns January IA to
speed up disposal of surplus Govern
ment property.
Representative Anderson, Repub-
lican, of California said In a state
ment that "of approximately $780,
00e, 900 900 worth of surplus property,
only about $500 100000 worth ac-
tually had been Sold"
He asserted that the Army, Navy
and other Federal departments were
boarding" automobiles and other
scarce products. He added that "the
situation is becoming scandalous."
Mr.. Anderson said he would intro
duce a bill calling for establishment
Of a special committee to investi-
gate the property disposal program
Representative Cochran, Demo-
crat, OF Missouri asserted in state
ment that veterans "have been
pushed around" by Federal agencies
when they tried to secure surplus
goods.
Declaring that the present act
governing disposal of surplus prop
erty Is "a monstrosity," Mr.. Coch-
ran urged that 1t be revamped as
soon as possible.
He said that such action, rather
than a special investigation, was
needed. He recommended that the
House Expenditures Committee meet
Immediately after the holidays to
draft new legislation.
