Senator Chandler hasdissented from the allowance of 10 per cent, for mainte-nance made by Secretary Herbert, and has estimated that6 per cent, would be sufl&cient.

CONGRESSIONAL LIMITATION OF PRICE. With these estimates before it Congress, on March 3,1897, established an arbitrary price of $300 per ton tobe paid for armor. To show approximately what thisprice means let it be assumed that for three years therehave been manufactured 2,000 tons of armor per year,which is about the average quantity, and which, at theprice of $300 per ton, would yield the gross sum of $1,-800,000, or $600,000 per year. The cost of the plant,with a fair allowance for working capital, would amountto about $4,000,000. If, therefore, armor should cost noth-ing to make, the above gross receipts per year would beonly 15 per cent, on the capital invested in a plant whichmay within a few years be worthless. Foreign govern-ments are satisfied to pay for the same quality of armorover $500 per ton.

Hij regeerde in de 7de eeuw v.Chr. en was trots op het feit dat hij kon lezen en schrijven. Mede daarom verzamelde hij teksten over allerlei onderwerpen. Tussen 1845 en 1851 zijn er in zijn bibliotheek meer dan 20.000 kleitabletten door de Engelse archeoloog Austin Henry Layard teruggevonden. De hier getoonde astronomische tekst behandelt verschijningsvormen van hemellichamen zoals de maan, en de daaruit af te leiden voorspellingen. De astronomen in Mesopotamië hoopten uit de beweging en positie van de sterren het lot van de mensen te kunnen lezen. De goden die waren opgestegen naar de hemel bepaalden immers wat er op aarde gebeurde. Door de hemel te bestuderen, ontdekten de astronomen ook de regelmaat in het hemelruim. Uiteindelijk maakten ze op basis hiervan een kalender van 12 maanden. object: kleitablet ; inscriptie datering: 669-627 BC, Neo Assyrische Periode materiaal: klei afmetingen: L 9,5 cm, B 8 cm vindplaats: Irak; Nineveh (?) collectie: Nabije Oosten objectnummer: LB 1321" (Source: RMO Leiden)
