and domestic shipping, with a corre- sponding increase in the demand for charts. Yachts and motor boats throng coast resorts and ply inland waterways, and these craft, like their larger sisters of the merchant marine, must also have charts to keep them in the security of navigable channels. ““Prosperous conditions also demand additional port development. Docks are enlarged or new ones bullt. Arti- ficial channels are deepened and wid- ened. Alds to navigation multiply. All these changes must be shown on charts before they can be trusted to guide the mariner. “A period of national prosperity, therefore, brings a great increase in the volume of work required by the Coast and Geodetic Survey, an in- crease resulting not only from the de- mand for more charts, but also from the necessity that every chart shall be modern and up to date. These ob- ligatjons are symbolic of a national well belng to wnlch the bureau is glad to contribute the best effort of which it is capable.” Machine Records Waves.

He sees the excessive turnover in the studyin of waves, their height and speed, and the water which is projected upon any beach during any given period of time.

The other instance was the furnish- ing of magnetic observatory results to several companies and individuals en- deavoring to locate oil fields by mag- netic methods. Mr. Jones states that magnetic ob- servatory information was also in de- mand during the year, due to an ab- normally bad perlod of radio reception which appeared to be in some manner related to the condition of the earth’s magnetism. The information was fur- nished through the bureau's division of terrestrial magnetism. ___ incumbent must undergo a consider- able period of train as soon as they this unproductive <nows of no valld eral service should g school for certain of the industries.
