By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT HOUSE, September 17.—Candidates for office in this county had better mind their Ps and Qs if they don’t want to run afoul of the county's painstakingly efficient electoral board. Nothing escapes the scrutinizing eyes of this inquisitive election jury. At any rate, that is the opinion held by four candidates for office who have just been notified to report to_ the board at a special hearing here Mon- day to explain alleged defects in their candidacy papers. Has No Objection. Those whose papers have been ques- tioned because of reported technical mistakes in declaring themselves for office are: Charles R. Taylor, Dem cratic candidate for “clerk of court ‘Thomas D. Baillle, Republican candi: date for “clerk of the Circuit Court H. H. Blandford, candidate for justice of the peace, and G. H. McCrillis, can- didate for overseer of the poor. Wil- liam-H. Duncan is a candidate for re- election as “county clerk,” and it is this office that Taylor and Baillie seek, Duncan declares. “I will appear in the hearing Mon- day and advise the electoral board that I have no objection to the cer- tification of Taylor's and Baillle’s names,” Duncan announced last night. “Since I am the only candi- date personally interested, I see no reason - why thé board should not PAGEANT WILL SHOW PERIL OF CARELESSNESS Child Actors to Present Show at Soldiers’ Field, Chicago, BSeptember 30, CHICAGO, September 17.—Hun- dreds of child actors will present in living form the perils that beset them through carelessness and heedlessness in a pageant in Soldiers’ Field Sta- dium September 30. Episodes will include the “Court of Carelessness,” “Traffic Harards,” “Fire Hazards,” and the like.

Action of the electoral board fol- lowed certification by Duncan of the names of Taylor and Baiilie for the offices of “clerk of court” and *clerk of the Circuit Court,” as worded in their respective declarations, where- as Duncan’s own paper announces candidacy for ‘“county clerk.” The discrepancy resuited in notices to Taylor and Baillie that “a question has arisen as to whether your names should appear upon the ballots for the November election.” In the case of Blandford it is un- derstood the board will contend that his declaration paper has not been properly witnessed, while in the case of McCrillis it is alleged he termed the office he is seeking as ‘‘overse of the poor for Arlington County, whereas he meant for Arlington dis- trict of Arlington County. It is un- derstood that all four will make a strong fight to have their names re- tained on the ballot when the hearing is called in the courthouse at 1:30 o'clock Monday afternoon. Taylor, while admitting there is a constitu- tional provision for the election of a “county clerk,” who shall serve as “‘clerk of court,” declares he will prove to the board that there is also ample legal justification for the use of “clerk of court” in referring to the office of county cleck. FEDERAL JUDGE TRIEBER EXPIRES IN NEW YORK Dies at Home of Daughter After Illness of Two Months. Funeral Tuezday. By the Associated Press. SCARSDALE, N. Y., September 17. —Federal Judge Jacob Trieber of Little Rock, Ark., died here today at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Charles H. Newton, at the age of 74. He had been suffering from arterio sclerosis in an aggravated form for two months. Judge' Trieber came to New York on August 1 to preside at the Fed- eral Court, but was taken ill soon after his arrival and went to the Presbyterian Hospital there. A week later he was transferred to his daugh- ter's home. He is survived by his daughter, one son, Harry M. Trieber, and his widow, all of whom are here. The body will be taken to Little Rock tomorrow for funeral services Tuesday. _— More than 50 flights are made each week from the air port at Bremen, Germany.

EQUAL AREA MAP AIDS PROPORTION High Lights of Distribution Presented Effectively in New Plan. Holding that the Mercator projec- tion, ordinarily used for world maps, is greatly out of proportion and fs greatly exaggerated in all_directions as the eye moves from the Equator to the poles, the geographic section, divi- sion of statistical research, of the De- partment of Commerce has prepared for the use of American exporters and business men world maps on an equal aren scale. By use of these maps the great land masses of the globe may be brought into their proper proportion, the oceans and their islands brought into proper perspective with regard to their relative size and the land of the world as a whole placed in a more favorable light as regards its mas: On the Mercator projection, accord- ing to Helen M. Strong, chief of the geographic section, distances and areas are exaggerated increasingly, both east and west, as the eye moves north and south. The reason for this, Miss Strong says, is readily apparent if an orange peel is flattened by split- ting and tearing it. The Mercator map fills in with fictitious land or water similar gaps that would result from flattening out the surface of the earth, which accounts for the east and west exaggeration in area. Distorts Land Masses. How the Mercator projection dis- torts the land masses of the globe is shown by Miss Strong, who says the Mercator map shows the United States to be nearly twice as large as Brazil, though in reality it is some- what smaller. Europe, roughly the same In extent as these areas, appears about twice as large as the United States and about four times the size of Brazil. Africa, half again larger than North America, looks smaller. To straighten out these misconcep- tions, Miss Strong has made three maps which present the land masses of the world on an equal area scale, giving them their proportionate size on a true scale. “Manifestly,” she says, “these exag- gerations of land and water areas make it utterly impossible to picture distribution of any kind correctly on a Mercator map or to compare areas or distances. Relatively Farther Apart. “Dots, or other symbols representing production or other facts concerning volume of business, in reality all ma- terial on the map, such as cities and countries, are, except on the Equator. placed relatively farther apart in all directions than they are on the earth itself. The stretching out of these distances becomes progressively great- er toward the poles.

Realizing these serious disadvan- tages, the Department of Commerce, through the co-operation of two of its bureaus, Foreign and Domestic Com- merce and the Coast and Geodetic Sur- vey, has prepared an equal area world map well adapted to correct presenta- tion of commercial information. - Every square inch on it stands for the same number of square miles. All parallels are horizontal, parallel with the Equa- tor, and distances along these are true to scale. So also are distances on the vertical meridian extending north and south through the center of each con- tinent. There is, inevitably, some dis- tortion in distances elsewhere on the map, but it is vastly less than on the Mercator projection, and the lines are so adjusted that areas are correct. The land distances, which are the more important, are especially close to accuracy. More Satisfactory Shaping. “It will be noted that the arrange- ment of the several lobes of this map, which may appear somewhat odd and artificial at first glance, is intended to permit a more satisfactory shaping of the continents. It gives each an aj pearance approximating that on sepa- rate maps drawn on profections chosen to reduce distortion in all direc- tions to a minimum. The turning of the lobes from right to left, in fact, results from the centering of each con- tinent along a vertical meridian. “The lobes, with one exception, are cut into the oceans, keeping the land areas in solid masses. In order, how- ever, to avold excessive distortion of the great land mass of Europe-Asia, .extending far up toward the pole, it has been considered best to split the map close to the boundary between Europe and Asia. By doing so a far better picture of the shape of this land mass is obtained than is given by the familiar Mercator map. This also has the advantage of permitting the plac- ing of the Western Continent, with our own country, in the center of the map; this can be done with the Mer- cator, but much less satisfactorily. For Picturing Distribution. ““A map of this kind is well adapted to picturing distribution of offices or sales, volume of trade, production of crops or manufactures, and for show- ing citles and countries correctly spaced with reference to each other. Routes by way of air, railroads and ‘water are approximately true to scale, 80 a comparison can be made between their lengths. The American exporter is concerned with the relative extent of foreign market areas when he plans his sales campaigng abroad. In the midst of a conference, it he has an equal area wall map, he may instantly estimate the distances between his foreign offices and the amount of ter- ritory which each man will cover. Trade facts, when shown on the map in connection with the area to which they relate, often become more sug- gestive. “A total export of $2,000,000,000 worth of goods from the United States to northwestern and central Europe— only about one-third the area of the United States—is a striking fact.

China, Indi, eastern United States and Europe on the equal map stand out vividly against the background of less demsely peopled lands. This striking contrast in the true distribution would be very largely lost on a Mercator map: it would pre sent only a distorted picture with the high lights blotted out. “And it is these high lights of di- tribution—be it of people, oil, cotton textiles or reapers and mowers, or of cities, salesmen or air landing fields— which are significant to strategic con structive thought in world business affairs.
