NEW YORK, January 14 —An mverage reduction of 6 per cent in automobile insurance rates went into effect sterday throught rafte re- visions made by the Natlonal Bureau | ©f Casualty and Surety Underwriters. The scops of pollcies was extend- el to include accidents oceurring while the owner is not drivinz. It was announced also that hereafter rates would be estimated by cities instead of by the average of a group of clties. Lowering of accidents in any city thus will result in the low- ering of that city's rates, ew York city automobile owners pay the highest rates af public lia- bility insurance, it was_announced, with Buffalo tecond, Philadelph third and Chicago sixth.

That retirement annuity to govern- ment employes is groscly inadequate in' the annual report of Public Printer George . Carter, who says 1t “glves little inducement to younger persons capable of rendering the best service to the government." He warns that the old buildings, some of which Were erected before the civil war, are a constant menace to the lives of more than 4,000 em- in the government printing office, and recommends a new $3,600,- 000 building. € The new classification ast which goes into effect July 1. is unjust to shop laborers, the public printer ad- vises Congress.

He stresses the need for more ef- | He urges the sale of all government | publications, caliing attention .to a | “tremendous waste” in the careless distribution of books and other pub- | lications. “The present free distribu- tion of government publications causing expenditure of at ieast § 000,000 a year for books and par phléts, most ail of which are wasted.” He calls attention that the folding | rooms of the Capitol are now Mled | with thousands of publications that ave either obsolete or worthless for public distribution. Some of these ate back fifty years. During the last year there were two fires in the old buildings, Publlc Printer Carter savs In siressing the need for a new building. One fire caused a loss of $7.600, in- | cluding nearly publications cith a sales value of $6,500. The ! other was gaining headway in a room | Tull of books when it w discovered. “Both fires are believed to have been of incendiary origin” he says. “Fortunatély they were started early in the mornipg when employes were passing through the buildings on their way to and from work. Had either fire been set at a time when fefv emploves were about it undoubt- edly would have caused a serious loss, if not endangered the cntire plant. “With these nerve-racking remind- ers of the fire trap which constitutes t of the world's greatest printing nt, I feel compelled to renew most nestly the recommendation for a new bullding to replace the old struc- tures, now* partially useless even for storage rooms.” In presenting to Congress the urg- ency of removing this fire trap and replacing it with a model structure adequate to the needs of the service, Public Printer Carter says: “A considerable portion of ‘the old building was erected prior to the civil war, and all of it was completed more than fifty years ago. Lxcept for its is tire building is of wooden construc- tion, even to the columns supporting its four floors. Many of the wooden columns and girders are twlisted; tie fioors are badly worn, needing con- stant attention to keep them even | reasonably safe; wooden window sills are rotted. and the roof boards are in such condition that extensive repairs will be necessary within the next vear to keep them in any semblance ! of a safe condition. “Of necessity, the cld bullding has to be used as & warehouse for paper and othér inflammable materials for which there is no room in the new building. The carpenter, paint, ma- chine, blacksmith and electrical shops have had to be located In the old building, likewise adding greatly to an already perilous situation. If a fire once got under headway in this} structure it is believed by every onme| who has studied the matter that noth ing could stop the flames until they had | wiped out not only the old building, | but also the new building and the documents office as, well. Disaster Constantly Threatems, “Such a disaster should not be po: alhE. vet it constantly threatens as iong as the old building is permitted to stand in its present condition. “Therefore, 1 can not allow this opportunity to pass without again warning Congress of this peril to the lives of more than 4,000 employes in a fire that would quickly destroy the world's greatest printing plant. Mod- ern fire-fighting apparatus has been installed in various parts of the bullding, numerous fire alarms and escapes provided, and suitable fire drills arranged, but even with these precantions it is doubtful if all the} loyes could escape. T caondary only to the importance of tearing down the old fire trap Is the necessity for an adequate and safe warehouse for the vast quantity ot ‘equipment, materials and supplies @ which this office has to keen con- stantly on hand. A stock costing the government more than three- fourths of a_million dollars, and oft- times exceeding a million dollars in value, is constantly exposed to total loss by fire, without a ceny of in-| surance. g for the ‘erection of a new building that| will be adequate and suitable not only | for warehouse and shop purposes, but will also provide much-needed space for the activities that are crowding the so-called new building, now more than twenty vears old. The superin- tendent of documents is also in dire need for room in which to conduct ! the distribution and sale of govern- ment publications that are increasing at a tremendous rate. The superin- tendent of documents could easily build up a sales business amounting to more than $1,000,000 o year if he had adequate Toom fn which to han- dle such a growth In his work.

A building of this size. with a frontage. of 38% feet on H street and 175 feet on North Capitol stroet, would cost approximately $3.- 500,000. *““Fha building project could be financed by authorizing that a speci- fied sum be expended therefor, under the direction of the joint committee on printing, out of the available bal- ances and miscellaneous _receipts, amountingeto_more than $4,700,000. which thi offee has left untouched in the Treasury during the last two years.

The = rage retirement ‘anpuity is about $510 a year. Such a pittance As compared with the large retire- ment allowances t§ Army and Navy officers in time of peace is an unjust discrimination against the civilian employes who have, in_many in stances. rendered equally faithful serv. ice to their government. In urguing that the recla. law is unjust to shop laborers, public printer say fication the “Inasmuch as the classification act | of 1923 does not apply to apprentices, | helpers and jo eymen of a recog- nized trade or aft, nor to certain skilled and semi-skilled laborers. the | ompensations of those employes were not submitted to the personnel classification board for readjustment. The wct provides. however. that its clasgification schedule shall include a so-called “eclericul-mechauicul serv- ice,” covering positions not in a rec- cgnized trade or craft, the duties of which are to perform or direct man- ual and machine operations requir- ing_special skill or experience or to perform or direct the counting, ex- amining, sorting and other verifica- tion of the product of manual or ma- chine operations in the government vrinting office and the bureau of en- graving and printing. “AS a matter of fact, this provision, especially as to counters and veri- fiers, was drafted especlally for the of engraving and printing, and really has but little, if any, prac- application to tha government printing office. But the personnel ird has held that employes in thia sfice who have been designated as ‘counters’ and ‘examiners’ come within I-mechanical service, and as such are subject to fts wage schedules. “The injustice of this situation is shown by the fact that a large num- ber of emploves in the bindery are at times engaged in counting or examin- tng_worlk an quired to do folding, gathering and other related tacks of a bindery worker. ~ Such varying conditions make it cxtremely inadvisable to clasify employes who have to go from ratable to non-ratable work, depend- ing upon the requirements of the office. “The personnel board been re- anuested, therefore, to exempt thesc employes from the operation of the classification act.” Opposes Reclassifying Act. Mr. Carter contends that all chanical forces should be exemnt. “In order to insure equal justice to all the emploves of the government printing oftice and a proper relation- Ship between their wages. all workers of the mechanicai divisions should be exempt from the operat me- t is entirely fmpracticable to place on annual salaries, as provided by the classification act, employes who ore now pald by the hour. A gross in- justice will' be perpetuated by re- stricting these employes to annual salarjes when the skilled tradesmen whoSvork along with them are allow- ed pay for overtlme and extra com- pensation for Sunday and holiday werk. T bespeak simple justice for them that no man or woman may say that the government has been unfair or partial in the treatment of its em- ployes. That the matter is of no small consequence mav be seen from the fact that employos of the government printing office were required to per- form 204,087 hours of overtime Sun- day and holidav work in 1922, for which they received adidtional com- pensation to the amount of $143,903. —— TO DEBATE PROHIBITION.

FACE PAINT. AND POWDER HELD TO CAUSE CANCER IDr. Bloodgood Says They Often Hide Blemishes That Need Medical Attention. TUse of powder and paint by women |to conceal facial blemishes, instead jof medical treatment. is largely re- sponsible for the growth of cancer among women, according to Dr Joseph Colt Bloodgood, associate pro- fessor of surgery at Johns Hopiins University. By covering up‘skin defects women often hide blemishes that later, through lack of proper treatment, de- velop into cancerous growths, Dr. Bloodgood told the Woman's Wel- fare Association at the National Mu- seum vesterday. Dxcessive rmoking and ragged teeth frequently are causes for can- cer of the mouth, the speaker said. Mon, he added, suffer more often from cancer of the mouth than do women. . Dr. Bloodsood urged that cancer eymptoms should not be overlooked. Competent physiclans should be con- sulted at once, he asserted.

Radio was brought into play Satur- day night by Detectives Kelly and Scrivener in the Investigation of the fata] trafic accident on 3d street be- tween Maine and Maryland avenues southwest Saturday afternoon. An automobile license number reported as the number of the car that inflicted the fatal injury had been issued to an’ ensfgn of the Navy, who was on the high seas in the vicinity of Cuba. A little more than four hours after the sending of a radlo to the ship on which the ensign was making the trip came a response telling the name of the purchaser of his car. There had béen a mistake in the number, how- ever, and the message was useless so far as assisting in the Investigation was concerned. Identified as Mrs, C. B.

Mra. Park Calls Vote Datr. The nation will continue to suffer from real illiteracy as long as there is a qualified voter who cannot trace the responslility for evil government to his own door, so long as the geography of politics is not as well understood as the geography o f states, Mrs. Maude Wood Park, president of the National League of Women Voters, declared before the conference yesterday. Mrs. Parid declared the education which dld not teach voting as a duty is_not citizenship training. Mgr. Edward A. Pace of Catholic University characterized mdifference to the obligations of citizenship as a greater evil than {lliteracy. Whlile lack of education, he said, does not imply criminality, giving of a small amount of education may place a weapon in a man's hand that mav work harm.
