WOMEN ARE INCREASING ON WALL STREET New York, July 7. (A. P.)—Wall Street is becoming more and more dependent upon women; the average space for each office worker in the ct of Manhattan has x percent in been cut down over more magnificent quarters and give their employes le all other tenan’ tious skyscrapers. These are the outstanding conclu- sions of experts of Owners’ and Manager: after a survey of a group of the world’s largest office buildings un- dertaken to obtain data for the u of architects in designing skyscrap- ers of the future. Ten years ago, when the last ac- curate door-to-door census of fir office buildings found that there were four men em- woman, and thav the average floor space for each worker was 125 square feet. A similar census in a typical office building recently revealed that in # population for the structure of 10,868, the proportion of amen to| wemen was only two to one, and that the. average working space had been reduced to 107 square feet.

IDAHO CALLS ATTENTION TO NEW NAT. PARK Arco, Idaho, July 7.—The “Craters of the Moon” section, located about 40 miles south of here and recently made a national monument by action of Presidént Coolidge, is so named because its weird lava formations bear a marked resemblance to the moon as seen through a telescope. Countless years ago this area, lo- cated in a valley about 25 miles long and three miles wide, was the scene of great volcanic activity. Surround- ing the district is timberland which abounds with wild animals. A freak of the region is an im- mense underground cavern, hollowed out by a seething flow of molten lava, ‘and down which automobiles can be driven for a considerable distane Other caverns glow with phosphor- escent tints of volcanic ash, dead and cold, yet presenting the appear- ance of an active volcano. There fare no rattlesnakes or other rep- tiles in the district, despite the fact that similar lava territory else- where is literally alive with them. Why there are no snakes in the “craters” a question which no one can decide, The region is not far from the beaten paths of tourist travel to Yellowstone National Park, British Will Send Historians to U.

The investigator says that from the beginning of September, 1920 to September, 1922, German brewers used 41 times as much food-stuffs in making beer as the foreign Quak- Jers contributed for the relief of un- jderfed German children. The | in- crease of the alcoholic content of {beer is deplored by Dr. Abel, who says alcoholism has increased in ;Germany in dirett proportion to the jincreased manufacture of heavier beer. _ The Nuremberg institute for the care of alcoholics dealt with only 20 jcases. in 1917, while the number of lcases there fn 1921 and 1922 respec- tively was 442 and 1,738. Other hos- pitals arp said by the doctor to show similar increases in alcoholic cases. “The Test That Failed By MORRIS SCHULTZ “Fve lost everything. We're ruined.” * Havering looked round the table as he spoke—at his wife, resplend- ent with diamonds; at his son, just down from Harvard, wearing his sult of exaggerated “campus togs”; at his daughter Eunice, with her dissatistied, querulous face, He looked from them at the cost- ly furnishings of his town house, the imitation Louls Seize chairs and tables, the Parisian tapestries.

A querulous wife, a quer- ulous daughter, a worthless son— all looked on him as a machine for grinding out money for them. He had resolved to put them all to this test of poverty. He had arranged his affairs so that he could take a three months’ rest. Then he was going to pretend to have re- couped a part of his losses, and they would resume living in a less extravagant way. Perhaps it was because he was growing old, but he had been ob- sessed by this idea of his for months. Would they meet it?” Would his wife live with him in & modest apartment with one maid, and his daughter dress simply, and his son get out and hunt for that Job that he never found? This was the test, the crucial test that was to decide their future, A “Don't be so absurd, Johri!” “Don't be so ridiculous, father!” . “Say, dad, think again!" So that was the way they took it! They didn’t believe him. They had always. called him stingy, too; they had ached to get their hands upon his fortune and make the money fly. Now—they couldn't be- Neve him. “I mean,” he expounded, “that I have lost all but a few thousand dollars in speculation. I mean every- thing’s gone. We'll have to take ‘a small apartment in the suburbs and live like poor people—” “And give up the car? And our opera seats?” cried Eunice in an- gulsh, “Everythin; said Havering briefly. ‘ Storme, reproaches, expostulu- tions. “I told you to retire years ago,” sobbed Mrs. Havering, “In- stead of hanging on at your age, and throwing your money away on the exchange. How much have we got left?” ¢ “It isn’t what we've got left, Jt’s what I can make. We got to get along on four thousand a year.” “A—a year? Amonth, you mean! A—a year?” “What about my maid?” “Say, dad, you can’t mean that! How about my club dues?” Havering got away at last. It had worked even better than he had anticipated. He telephoned his clerk/Richards that night. Rich- ards was his confidant in the mat- ter. He had once wanted to marry Bunice, and of course Havering had to put his foot down, but Richards had fallen into line and Eunice had given him up. A presumption on Richard's part—but_ still, all that was forgotten. Richards was see- ing to it that the business was car- ried on during his absence. Haver- ing was satisfied. Mrs. Havering was strangely meek the next day. She acquiesced in all his arrangements. The house was to be sold. Amelie, Eunice's mald, received notice.

Douglas of Rangoon, Burma, who is in the Philippines to hake a detailed study of conditions of lepers in the islands and the methods of treatment employed at Culion where 5,500 lepers are confined, “We have 100,000 lepers registered in India and estimate that there are as mariy more unregistered,” ‘said Dr. Douglas. “There are 10,000 known lepers in Burma alone, With 10,000 more unregistered. “Isolation of the leper is one of the serious problems of India, The y is in the throes of s nt upheavals at present and too much pressure by the British might bring condemnation from the natives, Co plete isolation, as in the Philippines, would be almost impossible in (n- dia.” : A Dr. Douglas says tropical disease experts of India dispute the belief of some medical men that the chaulmoo- gra oil treatment for lepers is abso lute, and that leprosy will _be cleared from the earth within the next 50 year: BANK BONDING MEASURE HELD INSUFFICIEN (Continued from page one.) ing laws are provided. They in- clude: The Guaranty Fund Commission would be composed of the Governor, Attorney-General and Secretary of State, who now comprise the bank- ing board, and would remove the three appointive members, who now, together with the Governor and State Examiner, comprise the com- n. The Governor would be required to name a man to supercede and have all the powers of the bank ex- aminer, and also to be Guaranty Fund Law Commissioner, from a list of three names submitted by the four officers of the Association of Depositors in Closed Banks. All appointments in the office in the future would be made in the same manner. New Assessments New assessments would be levied on state banks, operating under the Guaranty Fund law. They would be one-half of the one percent on the average daily deposits, to be paid each year until the bonds have been paid. The banking board would have power to refuse to establishment of new banks, and those seeking to establish banks would have the right of appeal to the courts. The secretary of the Guaranty fers Commission, who also would be Guarahty Fund Commissioner, ‘would become receiver of all, closed banks. The state board of equalization would be required to levy annually sufficient taxes, together with other provisions of the act, to provide for ‘the payment of interest and prin- Jfeipal on bapds.

Ireland Would Regain Export Egg Trade Dublin, July 7—Pateick Hogan, |the Free State minister for lands ‘and agriculture, has introduced into the Dail a bill to regulate the export of eggs. Eggs are one of the most important of Irish exports, and the industry has recently shown signs of deterioration. In 1921 Ireland ex- ported $50,000,000 worth of eggs, poultry and feathers, the value of the export being second only to that of cattle. | For the year ended March 30, 1924, the Free State export of eggs was only about $17,000,000. Part of the diminution is attributed to n fall in prices and the expanston of oppor- tunity for continental competitors since the war. Before the war the Irish export was more than 50 ver-| cent greater than the Danish. Now it is less. registered by the ministry of agriculs ture, tested and graded under official supervision and packed in standard boxes. It is hoped by abolishing de- fective packing and grading to dou- ble the Irish egg export. Seal Catch Is Lightest in Years Ketchikan, Alaska, July 7 (A. P.) ing operations of Indians in southeastern Alaska this year were the lightest in the history of the Sitka division and netted only eight seal skins, according to Fisheries Warden M. J. O'Connor on his re- turn from the division where he was in charge of the seal patrol main- tained annually by the Bureau of Fisheries. Stormy weather prevail- ing during the early months of the year and low prices offered for seal skins caused the lightness of the operations. Protestant Parish Seeks Clergyman Dublin, July 7—A. P.)—The Pro- testant Bishop of Clogher, Dr. Mac- Manaway, has struck a note of alarm in referring to the growing shortage of clergymen in the Church of Ireland He has five vacant parishes in his diocese and “not a single suitable man in view for any of them.” In his university 4 in Trinity College, he says, there were about 150 men preparing for the thinistry. Now there are only from 20 to 30. “It requires,” the Bishop declared, “but a simple calculation to show that if this state of things contiued for a comparatively short number of years the work of the church would come to a stop.’”” DRY RUBBER GLOVES The life of a pair of rubber gloves can be greatly prolonged by wash- ing and rubbing them thoroughly after each using, and patting dry with a soft towel.
