Whether it is purchased as a gift for the bride, 
for the sweetheart or for the graduate or as a safety 
vault for the family woolens, the Cedar Chest must meet 
certain requirements. 

To withstand a lifetime of use, it must be stanch; 
to be effective, it must be closely constructed and dust- 
proof; to be worthy of a place in the home, it must be 
attractive pleasingly designed and well finished. 

Roos Chests do more than meet these requirements. 
They were created to match the finest of furniture, not 
only in design and construction, but in finish. It is 
possible to procure a Roos! Chest in almost any period 
design; in genuine mahogany and walnut, and with a 
cedar interior.

A Remarkable 
Record^ 




THE CHICAGO ELEVATED RAILROADS have 
established a record for the safe transportation of 
passengers that stands without a parallel among trans- 
portation companies. 

In 1916 the American Museum of Safety awarded the 
Chicago Elevated Railroads "Honorable Mention" for 
the work done in the way of accident prevention. 

Nineteen committees working under the direction of a Safety 
Engineer and numbering 115 persons in the aggregate hold 
regular semi-monthly meetings to act on suggestions for the 
protection of the employes and the traveling public. 

One hundred and twenty-five First Aid Stations are located 
along the elevated lines, so that minor injuries to employes may 
receive immediate attention. 

First Aid teams, composed of employes who have received a 
course in medical training, are organized on each road to apply 
first aid methods in case of accident. 

Safety first and always is the watchword of the Elevated man- 
agement. Civic pride alone, aside from individual interest, 
should induce Elevated patrons to co-operate with the manage- 
ment in the prevention of accidents.

SOME REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD 

REGISTER YOUR PROPERTY 

UNDER THE 

TORRENS SYSTEM 

By JOSEPH F. HAAS Registrar of Titles of Cook County 

What is the Torrens System in Cook County? 

It is a system of registering the title of land, with 
a guarantee by the people of Cook County that 
the title as registered is correct. 

It's the modern, up=to=date method of holding 
and transferring title to real estate. 

BECAUSE 

1. Cook County guarantees each Torrens title with three 
billion dollars of taxable assets. 

2. The Indemnity Fund of over fifty thousand dollars in- 
sures the immediate cash payment of any damages sustained. 

3. Protection is given owners against judgments rendered 
against people of the same or similar name. 

4. Special protection is afforded against tax sales and tax 
deeds. 

5. Owners are protected against fraudulent signatures on 
deeds or other instruments. 

6. Adverse possession does not run against land registered 
under the Torrens System. 

7. A Torrens Certificate of Title is conclusive evidence of 
good and valid title. 

8. Defects in title are wiped out forever by initial regis- 
tration. 

9. Transfers may be made in one-third the time required 
under other systems. 

10. The transfer fee is only $3.00 no matter what the value 
may be of the property transferred. 

11. The Circuit Court of Cook County retains a continuing 
jurisdiction for the purpose of protecting the title to Torrens 
property. 

12. No statute of limitations runs against the guarantee of a 
Torrens Certificate.

LOOK UNDER THE LID! 

Tunnel Your Goods and Save Money 

Look under the lid of Chicago's Loop "the busiest square 
mile in the world" and see what is going on forty feet below. 
The business trafi&c of the city is not all on the surface. 

Busy Beavers 

A veritable army of busy beavers are at work down under 
the Loop's lid and many of them work both day and night. 
In the form of steel freight cars they are busily plowing their 
way over the 60-mile network of tunnel tracks constituting 
the transportation facilities of the 

Chicago Tunnel Company 

Quietly, efficiently, rapidly and safely these tireless car- 
riers haul 2,400 tons or more of freight daily from the freight 
terminals of the railroads to the city's warehouses and office 
buildings. They will carry for a customer a single package or 
a carload or a whole trainload. They carry as willingly a 
lady's hat as a ton of coal. And they help to beautify the city 
by being the silent arteries through which flows the debris of 
razed buildings, excavations and other unsightly impedimenta. 

There are four Public Receiving stations, all conveniently 
reached from the Loop, and there are hundreds of connecting 
stations within the Loop itself. 

This system for freight traffic keeps 6,000 or more trucks 
off the already congested Loop streets during every business day. 

Save Time Save Money 

This method of transportation is a saving to the shipper, 
for the railroads literally "pay the freight." Save your money 
and your time. Tunnel your goods and pull down your overhead.

speeding the Spoken Word 

Giving telephone service to the people of 111- , 
inois is a big and complicated job. The Illinois 
Bell Telephone Company handles more than 
4,000,000 local calls per day as well as more 
than 70,000 long distance calls. To give this 
service requires a force of 21,000 persons en- 
gaged in answering calls, maintaining the lines 
in working order and extending the system to 
meet the demands of business and domestic 
uses. The annual payroll of the Illinois Bell 
Telephone Company exceeds $24,000,000. The 
company owns and operates 875,000 telephones 
in its territory and connects with 350,000 tele- 
phones operated by smaller companies, which 
thereby obtain connection with the Bell long 
distance system, making a total of 1,225,000 
telephones or one to every five persons. 

Chicago alone has more than 625,000 tele- 
phones in use. This is more telephones than 
there are on the continents of Asia, Africa and 
South America taken together; more than 
there are in France, Italy, Spain, Greece, Por- 
tugal and Norway combined. 

1* H ! 1 

If the calls made in Chicago in one day were 
formed into one continuous call, it would con- 



(xxxiv.) 



sume 6,250,000 minutes or twelve years. It is 
estimated that in Chicago the use of the tele- 
phone saves 30,000,000,000 minutes daily. 

The company has within the limits of 
Chicago more than 2,000,000 miles of wire, 
sufficient to encompass the earth at the equa- 
tor 76 times. 

The company operates 229 central offices. 
It has 2,500,000 miles of wire in its state sys- 
tem, mostly in underground cables, which 
guard against delays caused by storms and 
other unforeseen happenings. 

In the last ten years the growth has been 
three times that of the preceding thirty years 
and so tremendous is Chicago's expansion that 
the existing plant, in the opinion of engineers, 
must be doubled in the next ten years if the 
company maintains its present sa^ice for the 
city. 

Chicago, with a population of slightly less 
than 3,000,000, has one telephone to every five 
persons. Paris, France, with approximately 
the same population, has one telephone to each 
twenty-four persons. London has one tele- 
phone to each twenty-three persons. Chicago 
has more telephones in proportion to popula- 
tion than any large city in the world. 



(xxxv.) 



The company has about 16,000 employees in 
Chicago, including 9,000 operators who handle 
the city and suburban calls, which vary from 
about 1,000 per hour after midnight to more 
than 260,000 per hour during the busy periods 
of the day. The total number of calls made in 
Chicago averages 2,750,000 daily. There are 
nearly 8,000 subscribers' private branch ex- 
change switchboards in use, through which 
telephone service of the large business concerns 
of the city is handled. These concerns employ 
more than 10,000 operators. 

A small army of experts is employed by the 
telephone company to keep the lines and equip- 
ment in good working condition. These experts 
are prepared at a moment's notice, night or 
day, to meet emergencies. 

To facilitate the use of the telephone in 
Chicago, 1,300,000 directories are distributed 
annually. If placed end to end, they would 
reach from Chicago to Toledo, Ohio. 

! *! ! ! 

The first telephone was installed in Chicago 
in 1877, a year after Alexander Graham Bell 
exhibited his telephone at the Centennial Ex- 
position and only three months after the first 
telephone had been constructed. The first 
telephone exchange was located on the top 



(xxxvi.) 



floor of the building at 11 South LaSalle Street 
and the wires were strung over the tops of 
buildings. On December 21, 1878, the Bell 
Telephone Company of Illinois was chartered 
with an authorized capital stock of $80,000. 
In January, 1881, the Chicago Telephone Com- 
pany was incorporated with a capital of 
$500,000. The property of the American Dis- 
trict Telegraph Company and the Bell Tele- 
phone Company of Illinois was bought and 
the two systems unified. 

At the end of 1882 the company had 2,610 
telephones in Chicago and 392 in the suburbs. 
For several years growth was slow and it was 
not until 1896 that the great period of expan- 
sion began. Since that time the growth has 
been very rapid. 

Throughout its entire career the company 
has endeavored to give the highest possible 
quality of service to the public and to keep 
pace with the tremendous demands for service 
which the rapid growth of the city and state 
has produced. This policy will be adhered to 
throughout the years to come.

MOMENTOUS NEWS 
IN BOOKS 



News is that which is new. The most important 
news in the world is often found in books ^the news .of 
ideas that affect the world's destiny. 

Books advancing new ideas are being published con- 
tinually. There are Einstein's theory of relativity and 
Freud's principles of psychanalysis, to cite two recent 
and important examples. 

To keep pace with the new idea books the important 
works of fiction, art, poetry, history and technology 
would keep one ordinarily busy, allowing not much time 
for breadwinning, if one had to read all the new books 
one's self and sift the good from the worthless. 

However, this necessity is happily discharged by the 
editors and reviewers of The Wednesday Book Page of 
The Chicago Daily News, whose pleasant duty it is to 
survey the whole world of books from week to week, and 
inform their readers as to just what books are of unusual 
importance or interest. 

Read The Book Page regularly and you may be sure 
that you will not miss any important or worth-while 
book. Besides book news and book reviews, it contains 
delightful gossip about books and bookish people.

INDEX 1923. 



Many events of historic significance took 
place in the course of the year 1922 and in- 
formation relating- to them wUl be found in 
the pagres of this, the thirty-ninth, issue of 
The Daily News Almanac and Year-Book. In 
view of the completeness of the index, which 
begrins below, it is not necessary to mention 
them in detail, but attention may be called to 
the fact that the several treaties adopted at 
the Washington limitation of armament con- 
ference are given in fulL The same is true of 
the more important laws passed by congress, 
except the new tariff act. of which a full sum- 
mary is presented. The constitution of the new 
Irish Free State is given verbatim, together 
with the treaty which made it possible. Sev- 
eral pages are devoted to information of value 
to the thousands who find diversion and profit 
in the use of the radio. The efforts to restore 
Europe to normalcy and to settle the grave 
Questions of (German reparations and inter- 
allied war debts through conferences at Cannes, 
Genoa and The Hague are set forth at some 
length. The statistical tables relating to agri- 
culture, finance, banking, population, elections 
and numerous other subjects are as compre- 
hensive as usual.

ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK 
FOR 1923 



[Astronomical calculations for 1923 by B. Hart Wrig-ht, DeLand, Fla.] 



All the calculations in this Almanac and 
Year-Book are based upon mean or clock time 
unless other^vise stated. The sun's rising- and 
setting- are for the upper limb, corrected for 
parallax and refraction; with the moon these 
are of -an opposite nature and ju^t balance 
each olher. The fig-ures given, therefore, are 
for the moon's center on a true horizon such 
^s the ocean affords. 



The calculations in each of the greogr-iphieal 
divisions of each calendar pagre will apply v ith 
sufficient accuracy to all places in contig-uous 
zones indicated by the heading- of the divisions. 

Daylight Saving- Advance one hour in 
May. June. July. Augnist and September to 
convert into the "daylig-ht saving- time" 
where same is used locally.

The year 1341-42 of the Mohammedan era; 
the year 1342 beg-ins Aug-. 13.

CHRONOIX)GICAL CYCLES.

Explanation. 

Dominical Letters The first seven letters of 
the alphabet are used to show the days of the 
year on which Sunday falls. Thus in 1923 
G, seventh of the Dominical letters, indicates 
that the seventh day of the year is Sunday, 
G being- the seventh letter of the alphabet; 
two letters are used for leap years. 

Bpact ^The moon's age on Jan. 1. 

Golden Number The year's place in the 
lunar cycle. 

Solar Cycle A. period of 28 years, during 



which the days of the week occur on the same 
day of the month as during- the previous cycle. 

Lunar Cycle A period of 19 years, during 
which the phases of the moon occur on the 
same day of the year as during- the previous 
cycle. 

Roman Indiction A period of 15 years, used 
first by the Romans for taxing- provinces. 

Julian Period This period begins when the 
indiction, solar cycle, and lunar cycle all beg-in 
together. 

CIVIL AND ASTRONOMICAL DAY. 

The civil day begrins at midnight and com- 
prises 24 hours, the hours being- counted from 
to 12 in two series, the first marked a. m. 
running- from midnig-ht to noon and the second 
marked p. m. running- from' noon to midnig-ht. 

The astronomical day begins at noon on the 
civil day of the same date, the 24 hours being- 
counted from to 24, running- from noon of 
one day to noon of the next following- day. 
Astronomical time as well as civil time may 
be either apparent or mean, the first being 
used mainly in connection with sundials, noon 
marks or meridians, to which the amount of 
sun fast or slow must be applied for con- 
version into clock time. For "summer time." 
May to September, inclusive, add 1 hour to all 
standard divisions. 

The civil day begins twelve hours before the 
astronomical day; therefore the first half of 
the civil day coincides with the last half of 
the preceding- astronomical day, and the last 
half of the civil day coincides with the first 
half of the astronomical day of the same day. 
Therefore the hours less than 12 of the as- 
tronomical day equal p. m. of the same civil 
day and those more than 12. after deducting- 
12. are a. m. of the next civil day.

ard time. 

The arrows indicate the direction and paths 
of the moon through the dark shadows 
(umbra) of the earth (4), 1 being the be- 
ginning, with the first point of contact at 
a, 2 the middle or greatest eclipse, and 3 
the last point of contact at c.

IV. Tota)l of the sun in the afternoon of 
Sept. 10. As shown by the maps annexed 
the total phase will be visible in southwestern 
California and northern Mexico. Times of be-

places in United States may be approximately 
known by inspection of annexed maps. 

N. N. N. 




ECLIPSE OF SUN SEPT. 10. 

Appearance of the sun with .6, .8 and .9 

eclipsed. See chart C. 

Examples: Savannah. Ga., begins 2:40 p. 
m. central time or 3:40 p. m. eastern time: 
ends 4:45 p. m. central time 5 :45 p. m. 
eastern time: greatest size 1. The time of 
greatest eclipse may be found) very nearly 
by ascertaining the duration of the eclipse, 
dividing it by two and adding to titae of 
beginning, which in this instance is 4:42 p. m. 

Examples of use o(f charts: Reauired the 
standard time of the beginning, middle or 
greatest eclipse, ending and size at: (1) New 
Orleans. By chart A the beginning takes 
place at 2:30, the end. by chart B, at 4:45. 
and midway between them is 3:38, the time 
of middle or greatest eclipse, which by chart 
C is .78, or about three-foiirths of the south- 
ern portion of the sun. Similarly. Chicago 
2:18, 3:19 and 4:20, size .64, and Salt Lake 
City 1:40, 2:55 and 4:10, size .80, and from 
this last example must be subtracted 1 hour 
for mountain time. Through j at the United 
States the eclipse wiU be upon the southern 
limb of the sun (see the illustrations) . Thus 




CHART A. BEGINNING OF TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE SUN SEJPT. 10, 1923, IN CENTRAL

Explanation The small perpendicular spaces 
represent 1 h. or 15 each and the distance from 
the central line of each division indicates the 
approximate distance of that planet from the 
sun, in time or space. Thus Venus will be 
2 h. or 30 east of the sun Dec. 31, sets "with 
the sun on Sept. 10 and will be 3 h. or 45 
west of the sun Feb. 4. Being- an infenor 
planet ^inside the orbit of the earth she can 



not. like the superior planets, get 180^ or 6 h,. 
from the sun, as do Jupiter and Saturn in 
April and May. At such time the superior 
planets will be at their brightest, rising at 
sunset and shining all night. A superior planet 
is considered a morning star from conjunction 
to western quadrature, when 90 west of the 
sun. when rising at midnight and passing- the 
meridian at 6 a. m.

ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



CHART OF THE HEAVENS.

Explanation : The chart of the heavens shows 
all the bright stars and groups visible in the 
United States. Canada, Cuba and Hawaii. Stars 
of the third magnitude are sometimes shown 
in order to complete a figure. 

If a bright, uncharted body be seen near 
the "ecliptic circle" it must be a planet. To 
locate the planets or moon refer to the 
monthly calendar pages in this almanac, find 
the proper signs on the chart in the "ecliptic 
circle" and an inspection of that part of the 
heavens comparing with the chart will serve 
to identify the planet and all surrounding ob- 
jects. (See note with table, page 37.) 

Because of the earth's motion from west to 
east (opposite to the direction of the arrow 
in the chart), the stars rise 4 m. earher each 
day or 30 m. per week or 2 hrs. a month. 
The chart shows the position at 9 p. m. Then 



if the position for any other hour be desired. 
as for 7 p. m.. count ahead one month, or 
back one month for 11 p. m,, and so on for 
any hour of the night, holding the month de- 
sired in front as the face looks either to the 
north or south with name down. 

A circle described from the zenith on the 
"zenith circle" for the desired latitude with a 
radius of 90 degrees (see graduated meridian) 
will show what stars are above the horizon. 
Thus Capella is near the overhead (zenith) 
point on latitude 40 degrees north Jan. 15. 
9 p. m., as will be "big dipper" at 3 a. m. 
Then from Capella or two stars all the sur- 
rounding visible groups can be identified. The 
"pointers," being 5 degrees apart and always 
in sight, may be used as a convenient unit of 
measure; also when visible, the "belt of 
Orion," 3 degrees, or the sides of the "square 
of Pegasus."

Note To make use of the above table in con- 
nection with the chart of the heavens proceed 
as follows: Suppose the position of Venus for 
June 11 is desired. Rig'ht ascension for that 
date is 111% hours. Locate that point on the 
outer margin of the chart and upon connect- 
ing this point, by a straight edge, as a ruler 



or envelope edge, with the north star, the line 
will cross the "ecliptic circle" at a point nearly 
midway between the Pleiades and Hyades, 
where Venus may be found at that time, or 
close to Regulus in the Sickle of Leo about 
Sept. 1,

HUNTER'S AND HARVEST MOON. 

The full moon nearest to Sept. 21 is popu- 
larly known as the "harvest moon." This is 
because the moon then rises for several con- 
secutive evenings at nearly the same hour, 
giving an unusual number of moonlight eve- 
nings. This is the most noticeable in the 
higher latitudes and quite disappears at the 
equator. The "hiinter's moon" is the first fuU 
moon following- the harvest moon.

LIGHT AND DARK OF THE MOON IN 1923. 



MAY JUN 




AUS SEPT. 



Explanation: The small perpendicular di- 
visions are of 3 hours each, and the light 
poptiona show the relative amount and place 
or time of moonldg-ht in the 12 hours from 
6 p. m. to 6 a. m. Of course allowance 
should he made for the increase of daylig-ht 
in summer and the decrease in winter. Thus 



in December the moon will shine only after 
midnig-ht on the 1st, after 3 a. m. on the 
4th, not at all on the 7th. 8th. until 9 p. m. 
on the 11th, until midnig-ht at the 15th, all 
nig-ht on the 23d. aiter 9 p. m. on the 27th 
and after midnig-ht of the 30th.

Explanation: By the absolute scale of mag-- 
nitudes stars brig-hter than Aldebaran and 
Altair are indicated by fractional or negative 
Quantities: thus Vega 0.2 and Sirius 1.4. 
As the magnitudes increase the brilliancy de- 
creases, each increase of a unit being equal 
to a decrease of about tv?o and one-half in 
brig-htness. 

To ascertain when any star or constellation 
will be on the upper meridian add the number 
opposite in the column "For Meridian Passage" 
to the figures in the table ob the previous page.

figures be "Morn." or "Eve." If "Morn." and

cumpolar. Stars havingr an asterisk (*) in 
the last columns are to be seen only in the 
far south and then when near .the meridian, 
as the vapors of the horizon will prevent 
seeing- them when they rise or set. To tell 
how high up from the nearest point of the 
horizon a star will be at its meridian passage, 
subtract the star's declination from 90 and if 
the result is less than the latitude of the place 
of the observer that star will neither rise nor 
set, but is circumpolar, and the difference be- 
tween that result and the latitude shows the 
star's altitude above the north point of the 
horizon or below the southern horizon. Or

that one-third of the -distance from the zenith

sides of the square of Pegasus; the "pointers" 
in the "big dipper," which are nearly 5 apart 
a convenient celestial yardstick because 
always to be seen. In the case of a star 
whose dec. is such as to bring it nearer to the 
zenith than to a horizon at meridian passage, 
it will be more convenient to use its zenith 
distance as a means of locating it. The dif- 
ference between the latitude and dec. is this 
zenith distance. If the dec, is greater than 
the latitude then such distance is to be counted 
northward, otherwise southward from the 
zenith. 



SIGNS AND CONSTELLATIONS OF THE ZODIAC. 



Until recently it was taken for granted that 
the present relationship between signs and con- 
stellations of the zodiac was generally under- 
stood, as all astronomical textbooks mention 
their diagreement and explain the cause. The 
numerous letters of inquiry concerning differ- 
ences between the data in this almanac and 
certain others show the necessity for this note 
of explanation. (Both sign and constellation 
now given.) 

Thousands of years ago when the zodiac, 
that belt of the heavens about 16 in width 
within which move the moon and planets, was 
formed and divided into twelve parts or sea- 
sons called signs, each containing certain star 
groups called constellations, each was given 
the name of an object or animal which never 
did bear any relationship to the configuration 
of the stars in that group or division, but 
which did or is supposed to have reference 
to certain astronomical or other facts. Thus 
Libra =. the scales or balance, comes at the 
autumnal equinox when there is an equi- 
librium or balance between the length of 
day and night the world over. Aquarius -, 
the water bearer, whose sign is the Egyptian 
sign for running water, comes at the season 
of greatest rains in Egyiit. and so on. 



Since the time when these divisions were 
made and named, owing to the precession of 
the equinoxes, resulting from the differing 
polar and equatorial diameters of the earth, 
the signs have moved back west nearly a 
whole division or constellation and where T 
was the first. K now is. Hence, though the 
sun now enters the sign 'T' March 20. it is 
a month later when he enters the constellation 
T. It must be apparent, therefore, that any 
supposed influence or relationship which early 
astrologers attributed to the position of the 
sun. moon or planets when in certain of these 
divisions can no longer exist, as the sign now 
only represents that space or division of the 
zodiac where the controlling constellation was 
2,000 or more years ago, but is not now. 
Nevertheless, some almanacs still give the 
signs for the moon's place, which is very mis- 
leading to those who attempt to follow her 
in her course among the stars. Hence, this 
almanac gives both and~ discards the ancient 
picture of the disemboweled man as a relic 
of the age of superstition. The sign is re- 
tained for sun's place in connection with the 
seasons and sun's path through the zodiac 
each month because of its relationship to the 
equinoxes and solstices. 



FACTS ABOUT THE SUN AND PLANETS. 



The sun's surface is 12.000 and its volume 
1.300,000 times that of the earth, but the 
mass is only 332,000 times as great and its 
density about one-quarter that of the earth. 
The force of gravity at the surface of the 
sun is twenty-seven times greater than that 
at the surface of the earth. The sun rotates 
on its axis once in 25.3 days at the equator, 
but the time is longer in the higher latitudes, 
from which fact it is presumed that the sun 
is not solid, at least as to its surface. 

THE EARTH AND THE MOON. 

Earth The equatorial diameter of the earth 
is 7.926.5 miles and the polar diameter 7,899.5 
miles; equatorial circumference, 25,000. The 
linear velocity of the rotation of the earth on 
its axis at the equator is 24,840 miles a day. 
or 1,440 feet a second; its velocity in its orbit 
around the sun is approximately nineteen miles 
a second, the length of the orbit being about 
560,000.000 miles. The superficial area of the 
earth, according to Encke. the astronomer, is 
197,108.580 square miles, of which two-thirds 
is water and one-third land. The planetary 
mass is about 256,000,000 cubic miles. 



Moon The moon has a diameter of 2.162 
miles, a circumference of about 6,800 miles 
and a surface area of 14,685,000 square miles. 
Her mean distance from the earth is 238,840 
miles. The volume of the moon is about 
l-49th that of the earth and the density about 
3% that of water. The time from new moon 
to new moon is 29 days 12 hours 44.05 min- 
utes. The moon has no atmosphere and no 
water and is a dead world. 

Light travels at the rate of 186,300 miles 
per second. It requires 8 minutes and 8 sec- 
onds for light to come from the sun to the 
earth.

STOBY OF OUR WORLD FAMILY FOB 1933. 



THE SUN Though the ruler of our family 
the sun is a mere pigmy among: other suns. 
as reeen-tly shown by a device for measuring 
the size of brigrht stars or suns, as mentioned 
in our story for 1922. This revelation ol 
the wonderful mag-nitude of some ol the 
twinkling' stars, and the also accepted and 
verified theory of the materiality of lig'ht as 
shown by the deflection of star rays by the 
g:ravitational action of the sun, and the 
Einstein theorj' of relativity still hold first 
place in scientific discussions. By the last, 
time and space are limited and thingrs are at 
rest or in motion only relatively. 

The total eclipse of the sun (see eclipses) 
of Sept. 10 will afford a most excellent op- 
portunity to agrain verify the methods al- 
ready perfected by which the deflection of 
sxar light by the sun may be observed in 
the clear skies of southern California, north- 
ern Mexico and Central America, These ob- 
servations will confirm or disprove the re- 
suilta of the recently discovere(l method of 
screening- out the sun's light for the same 
purpose, 

MERCURY On the occasions mentioned 
under "Planets Brightest" watch for Mercury 
about one hour and fifiteen minutes before 
sunrise when a morning star and about the 
same time after sunset when an evening star 
and always near that point of tlie horizon 
where the sun rises or sets, and ,as no other 
planets or bright stars will be near him theie 
at these times no mistake need be made. 

VENUS-^During the fia^t four months of 
the year Venus will be very attractive as 
morning star in eastern Libra, rising about 
4 o'clock. At the first ocf the year she will 
show the large crescent phase as in C in the , 
annexed cut. She enters Scorpio Jan. 4 and 
on the 12th will be m conjunction with the 
noted red star Antares, 9 degrees south of 
her. Jan. 13 she will be occulted by the 
moon; the identical phages of the moon and 
Venus will always interest the amateur tele- 
scopic observer, especially as both will be in 
the field of a low power glass. Thus early 
risers will see a very pretty grouping of 
celestial objects from 4 a. m, to light. Feb. 
4 she will attain her greatest angular distance 
west of the sun 47, as shown in the chart 
of the planets, and enters Sag-ittarius Feb. 7. 
passing just north of 'the "milkmaid's dip- 
per" (upside down in the milky way) the 
laist of the month; enters Capricornus March 
10 and Aquarius April 1 and on April 14 
only one-third of one degree south of Uranus. 
May 1 she crosses the prime meridian of the 
heavens and enters the constellation Pisces 
(sign Aries), when the great square of Pega- 
sus will be about 10 degrees north of her; 
enters Aries June 1 and on the 11th will 
be juist north of the Pleiades or seven stars 
in Taurus; 4 degrees north of Aldebaran 
June 23; 6 decrees south of El Nath July 3 
and in line with that star and Capella 11 
degrees farther north; 16 degrees north of 
the giant Betelgeuse July 7-8; enters 
Gemini July 10: 6 degrees south of Pollux 
July 28 and quite dim, rising about 3:40 a. 
m. During August she will be invisible, 
passing to the east of the sun Sept. 10, be- 
coming an evening star. She will be coming 
into fair visibility when on Oct. 8 she passes 
3 degirees north of Spica; enters Libra Oct. 
14 and Oct. 17-18 will be 31 degrees south 
of Arcturus; 45 minutes south of Jupitef 
Nov. 4, enters Scorpio Nov. 10, setting at 
5:30 p. m. Four degrees north of Antares 
again Nov. 14, completing a cycle of the 
heavens since her conjunction with this star 
Jan. 12; enters Sagittarius Dec. 2, and on 



the 8+h to 14th passes along north of the 
"milkmaid's dipper." setting about 6 p. m.; 
Dee. 21, 30 degrees south of Altair in the 
Eagle, entering Capricornus the lasrt, of the 
year, setting at 6:45 p. m. She will be in 
conjunction with the moon on the following 
dates: Jan. 13 (occulted), Feb. 11, 2 de- 
grees south, March 13, 2 degrees 47 min- 
utes south, April 12, 1 degree 43 minutes 
south. May 13 (occulted), June 12, 3 de- 
grees north; omitting here such as take place 
when she is very dim or invisible, the remain- 
ing one is Dec, 9, 5 degrees south. 

She passes close to Saturn Oct, 9 and to 
Jupiiteir Nov. 4, but it is doubtful about 
these conjunctions being visible in the strong 
evening twilight.

MARS As shown by the chart "Visibility 
of the Principal Planets" Mars will not at- 
tain his maximum degree of brilliancy within 
the year, in fact will not even be very 
bright, but will be best seen at the begin- 
ning land end o^f the year as an evening and 
morning- star respectively, being in conjunc- 
tion with the sun Aug. 8, when he passes 
from the east to the west of the sun. For 
some weeks before and after that time he 
will be invisible and dim for a considerable 
period. 

At the beginning of the year he will be 
in the constellation Aquarius between the Y 
and Markab, the bright star in the south- 
west corner of the square of Pegasus; crosses 
into Pisces Feb. 1; enters Aries March 10. 
close to the Pleiades April 11 a-nd about 5 
degrees north of Aldebaran May 1, when 
quite near the sun and consequently dim in 
the evening twilight. He will not be easily 
seen again until September when in Leo; 
enters Virgo Oct. 20 and passes Spica, 20 
degrees to the south, Sept. 14; 1% degrees 
south of Saturn Dec. 2; enters Libra Dec. 
10. in which constellation he will still be at 
the end of the year, rising at 3:30 a. m. 



AI.MANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



He will be occulted by the moon Jan. 22. 
but the event wil\ be invisible in northern 
latitudes; other conjunctions or near ap- 
proaches to the moon are: Feb. 21, March 
21, April 19, May 18. Oct. 8, Nov. 6 and 
Dec. 2. 

JUPITER At the first of the year Jupiter 
will be a morning: star in Libra, rising- about 
3 a. m. He will become an evening- star 
Feb. 7, rapidly increasing- in brillianoy for 
three months, reaching- his maximum in May 
as an all nig"ht star; remains an evening- star 
until Nov. 22 when in conjunction with the 
sun and he then passes to the west of the 
sun, beooming- a morning star agrain. but 
will be invisible or very dim the remainder 
of the yieiar. being- only % of a deg-ree north 
of Venus Nov. 14. 

It is quite possible that this, the giant of 
our family, has acquired a new member of 
his retinue of captured comets in the Pons- 
Winneek comet which was scheduled to eithier 
collide with the earth or hit us with its 
tail, yielding- star showers or a storm of 
meteors, but which failed to come up to 
schedule and is apparently lost. 

His conjunctions with the moon will be as 
follows: Jan. 11, Feb. 8, March 7, April 3, 
May 1 and 28, June 24, July 21, Aug-. 18, 
Sept. 14, Get. 12, Nov. 9 and Dec. 7, in all 
of which he will be from 3 deg-rees to 5 de- 
g-rees south of thie moon. 

SATURN The ringed planet still maintains 
close companionship with his giant birother, 
Jupiter, being about 30 degrees farther west 
and 10 degrees farther north. The more 
northern declination throws him in the path 
of the moon, which will occult him or pass 
between the earth and Saturn at each of 
her revolutions as long as he is visible, or 
until October, when he will pass to the west 
of the sun on the 17th and therefore be- 
come a morning star, rising about 2 a. m. 
at the end of the year, being always in the 
constellation "Virgo, and 4 degrees north of 
Spica Sept. 28 and a close companien to 
that sun for tbs entire year and 1% degrees 
north of Mars Dec. 2. 

The occult ations mentioned will not be 
visible here, but at each of the conjunctions 
he will be very close to the moon when 
they are visible on this following dates: Jan. 
9. Feb. 6, March 5, April 1 and 29, May 26, 
'June 22, July 20, Aug. 16 and Sept. 12. 

His rings are slowly coming into better 
position lor viaibihty, the earth being from 



12 degrees to 16 degrees north of their il- 
luminated sides. They were invisible in 
1921 when edgewise to the earth and will 
not be easily visible again until 1925 or 
1926 or at their best in 1928. 

URANUS Venus will be very close (% de- 
gree) to and south of Uranus April 14, 
when small glasses may find him, though far 
from his brightest. He will be 'occulted by 
the moon at each lunation after April. These 
which occur on tha following dates will 
be the most favorable for seeing him with 
slight optical aid: May 10, June 6, July 3, 
Nov. 17 and Dec. 14. In each case Uranus 
will be close to and south of the moon. He 
will be at his brightest in September siq that 
either the July or November date will be 
the most favorable, 

NEPTUNE Always invisible without this 
aid of good glasses; will be most favorably 
located in February.

SUN SPOTS, NORTHERN LIGHTS AND THE W^EATHER. 



The northern hemisp'here was favored -with 
one of the greatest displays of northern lights 
or Aurora Borealis in necent times on March 
22, 1921. Newspaper prints were read by 
its light and the wonderful and rapidly shift- 
ing coruscatioois and cracking sounds were 
awe-inspiring, filling those ignorant of its 
true na4,ure with fear. 

The old belief that these displays portend 
gn&at and widespread changes in terrestrial 
meteorological conditions seems to have been 
verified in this instance, as in many others, 
as there was a marked shifting of storm 
centers and corresponding changes in their 
general moveanents, rainfall and temperature. 

It is quite possible and more than probable 
in the light of the additional facts herewith 
mentioned that similar and greater epochs 
in our earth history may have brought about 
the chang-es which tramsformed the onoe fer- 
tile, well watered and inhabited desert of 
Sahara into its present state and also changed 
the onoe tropical arctic regions into theiir 



present frigidity and ooincidentally given 
other parts of the world their vast forest areas. 

Solar electrical outbursts are responsible for 
these phenomena, as proved by the coinci- 
dence of the maxima of sim-spots and great 
auroral displays for the last century. It has 
been also shown that the growth of vegeta- 
tion is increased under artificial eleotrifica- 
tilon and that a maximum growth results 
during periods of time coinciding with the 
sun-spot maxima. 

The electrical character of these auroral 
displays is proved by the fact that at such 
times all electrical machinery is put out of 
commission and dispatches over long dis- 
tances have been sent without the aid of 
batteries. This and the cracking sounds and 
actual measureimente show nearness of the 
forces within our atmosphere limit, and there- 
fore the possibility of making solar conditions, 
when better understood, the basis of a more 
perfect and long range system of weather 
forecasting.

H3IE AND STANDARDS OF TttfE. 



Various kinds of time are in use in this 
country : 

1. Astronomical Time or Mean Solar Time 
This is reckoned from noon through the 
twenty-four hours of the day and is used 
mainly by astronomical obsei-vatories and in 
oflBcial astronomical publications. It is the 
legral time of the dominion of Canada, though 
"standard" and "mean" time are in general 
use there as in this country. 

2. Mean Local Time ^This is the kind that 
was in almost universal use prior to the in- 
troduction of standard time. This time was 
based upon the time when the mean sun 
crosses the meridian, and the day begins at 
midnight. WTien divided into civil divisions 
years, months, weeks, days, etc. it is some- 
times called civil time. 

Owing to the eccentricity of the earth's 
orbit and the inclination of the eauator to the 



then included all territory between the Atlantic 
coast and an irregular line drawn from Buffalo 
to Savannah. Ga., the latter city being its 
southernmost point. The second or central 
section included all the territory between this 
eastern line and another irregular line extend- 
ing from Bismarck. N. D.. to the mouth of the 
Rio Grande. The third or mountain section in- 
cluded all the territory between the last named 
line and nearly the western borders of Idaho, 
Nevada and Arizona. The fourth or Pacific 
section included all the territory of the United 
States between the boundary of the mountain 
section and the Pacific coast. Inside of each 
of these sections standard time was uniform 
and the time of each section differed from that 
next to it by exactly one hour. 

TIME ZONES' ESTABLISHED IN 1918. 

In March, 1918, the congress of the United 
States, in passing the "daylight saving" law.

STANDARD TIME ZONES AS FIXED BY 
ecliptic, the apparent motion of the sun is 
retarded or accelerated according to the earth's 
place in its orbit. Hence, to take the actual 
sun as a gviide would necessitate years, days 
and their subdivisions of unequal length. 
Therefore an imaginary or "mean sun" was 
invented. The difference between apparent 
and mean time is called the "equation of 
time" and may amount to a quarter of an 
hour in twenty-four hours. It is the differ- 
ence between the figures in "Sun at noon 
mark" column in calendar and twelve hours. 
The figures on a correct sun dial give the ap- 
parent time. 

3. Standard Time For the convenience of 
the railroads and business in general a stand- 
ard of time was established by mutual agree- 
ment in 1883 and by this calculation trains 
were run and local time was regulated. By 
this system the United States, extending from 
65 lo 125 west longitude, was divided into 
four time sections, each of 15 of longitude, 
exactly equivalent to one hour (7% or 30m. 
on each side of a meridian), commencing with 
the 75th meridian. The first or eastern section 



INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION, 
divided the territory of continental United 
States into five zones. The standard time of 
the first four zones was based on the same 
degrees of longitude as under the old railroad 
agreement. The fifth zone established included 
only Alaska, and its standard time was based 
on the 150th degree of longitude. In August, 
1919, the section of the law providing for 
"daylight saving" was repealed, but the part 
gi\'lng the interstate commerce commission 
po\ver to fix the hmits of the time zones was 
left intact. 

The new time zones as defined by the inter- 
state commerce commission became effective 
Jan. 1. 1919. They have been slightly modi- 
fled since then and are subject to further 
modifications from time to time. Standard 
time by law governs the movements of rail- 
roads and other common carriers engaged in 
interstate commerce. In all statutes, orders, 
rules and regulations relating to the time of 
performance of any act by any officer or de- 
pa ntment of the United States, whether in the 
legislative, executive or judicial branch of 
the government, or relating to the time within

which any rigrhts shall accrue or determine. 
or within which any act shall or shall not be 
performed by any person subject to the juris- 
diction of the United States, it shall be under- 
stood and intended that the time shall be the 
United States standard time of the zone within 
which the act is to be performed. 

EASTERN-CENTRAL BOUNDARY LINE. 

The boundary line between the eastern and 
central time zones as fixed by the commission 
runs from east of Port Huron. Mich., along 
the international boundary line through the 
St. Clair river. Lake St. Clair. Detroit river

MOUNTAIN-PACIFIC BOUNDARY LINE. ' 

Between mountain and Pacific time zones the 
line is fixed following the western boundary 
of Montana to meridian 114 west and then 
south and east to Pocatello. Idaho, and the 
Oregon Short Line to Ogden and Salt Lake 
City, Utah; thence the Los Angeles & Salt 
Lake railroad and the west and south bound- 
aries to the 113th meridian; thence to Selig- 
man and Parker, Ariz., and along the Colorado 
river to the Mexican boundary. 

All municipalities on the boundary between 
mountain and Pacific time zones will use 
sta.ndard mountain time. 

All of Alaska is within a single time zone. 
TABLE OP TIME CORRECTIONS. 

It is obvious that to express the time of 
rising and setting of the sun and moon in 
standard time would limit the usefulness of 
such data to th single point or place for 
which they were computed, while in mean time 
it is practically correct for places as widely 
separated as the width of the continent. In 
the calendar pages of the almanacs the rising 
and setting of the sun and moon are given 
in mean local time and to obtain the standard 
time of these and other astromonical events 
at any given place it is necessary to subtract 
or add a certain number of minutes according 
to the distance the place in question is east 
or west of the meridian, the time of which 
governs the zone in which the place is located. 
Thus in Chicago, which is approximately two 
and a half degrees east of the 90th meridian, 
which governs the time of the central zone, 
the sun and moon rise and set about ten 
minutes earlier than the time shown in the 
almanacs: in other words, ten minutes must 
be subtracted to get the actual standard time 
as shown by the clock. 

The corrections to be applied to mean or 
clock time for conversion are shown in the 
following table. The abbreviations are E. for 
eastern, C. for central, M. for mountain and 
P. for Pacific time. Add or subtract as 
indicated by the sign (minus) or + (plus) :

THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION IN WASHINGTON. 



The Smithsonian institution was established 
by statute in 1846, under the terms of the 
will of James Smithson, who bequeathed his 
fortune in 1826 to the United States for the 
"increase and diffusion of knowledge among 
men." From the income of the fund a 
building, known as the Smithsonian building, 
was erected in Washington, D. C, on land 
given by the United States. The institution 
is legally an establishment having as its 
members the president and vice-president of 
the United States, the chief justice and the 
president's cabinet. It is governed by a board 
of regents consisting of the vice-president, 
the chief justice, three members of the United 
States senate, three members of the house of 
representatives and six citizens appointed by 
joint resolution of congress. It is under the 



immediate direction of the secretary of the 
Smithsonian institution, who is the executive 
officer of the board and the director of the 
institution's activities. The institution aids 
investigators by making grants for research 
and exploration, providdng for lectures, initi- 
ating scientific projects and publishing scien- 
tific papers. It has administrative charge of 
the national museum, the national gallery of 
art, the international exchange service, the na- 
tional zoological park, the astrophysical ob- 
servatory and the regional bureau for the 
international catalogue of scientific literature. 
The institution's original endowment of ^541.- 
000 has been increased by gifts and accumu- 
lated interest. The secretary of the institu- 
tion is Charles D. Walcott. 



FRANCIS SCOTT KEY BRIDGE. 



The Francis Scott Key bridge, completed in 
1922. at a total cost of $2,100,000. is a fine 
concrete structure over the Potomac river be- 
tween Gk-orgetown, D. C. and Russell, Va. Its 
length with approaches is 3,700 feet. The 



name was given by Newton D. Baker, former 
secretary of war, as the old Francis Scott Key 
mansion once stood near the Georgetown en<l 
of the structure. It is more generally known 
as the Georgetown bridge.

WEATHER FORECASTS AND SIGNALS. 



The operations of the weather bureau of the 
department of agriciilture are based on ob- 
servations of the weather taken at about 200 
observatorief throughout the United States at 
the same moment of time and telegraphed 
daily to Washingrton, D. C, and to other im- 
portant cities. These observations, comprising 
barometric pressure, temperature, precipita- 
tion, winds and clouds, are entered upon out- 
line charts of the United States by means of 
symbols, forming- the "daily weather map." 
from which the forecasts are made. These 
forecasts are issued every day for every state 



in the union, and whenever necessary special 
warnings are sent out of storms, frosts, cold 
waves, heavy snows and flood^. In addition 
to the main office in Washington there are 
subordinate forecast centers in Chicago. New 
Orleans. Denver, San Francisco and Portland- 
Ore. Weather forecasts for a week in advance 
are now sent out from Washington. 

The forecasts are first telegraphed to the 
principal distributing points, whence they are 
further disseminated by telegraph, telephone 
and through the mail by means of forecast 
cards, rural free delivery slips and newspapers.

THE AMERICAN DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. 



The unanimous declaration of the thirteen 
United States of America, in cong-ress, July 4. 
1776. 

When, in the course of human events, it be- 
comes necessary for one people to dissolve the 
political bands which have connected them 
with another, and to assume among the powers 
ol" the earth the separate and equal station to 
which the laws of nature and of nature's God 
entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions 
of mankind requires that they should declare 
the causes which impel them to the separation. 

We hold these truths to be self-evident: That 
all men are created equal: that they are ea- 
dowed by their Creator with certain inalienable 
rights: that among these are life, liberty and 
the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these 
rig-hts. governments are instituted among men. 
deriving their just powers from the consent 
of the g-overned : that, whenever any form of 
government becomes destructive of these ends, 
it is the right of the people to alter or to 
abolish it. and to institute a new g-ovemment. 
kyiug its foundation on such principles, and 
organiiingr its powers in such form, as to tnem 
shall ^eem most likely to effect their safety 
rnd hcppiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate 
that governments long established should not 
be changed for Ught and transient causes; 
and accordingly all experience hath shown that 
mankind are more disposed to suffer, while 
evils are sufferable. than to right themselves 
by abolishing- the forms to which they are 
accustomed. But when a long- train of abuses 
and usurpations, pursuing- invariably the same 
cbiect. evinces a design to reduce them under 
absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their 
duty, to throw off such government and to pro- 
vide new g-uards for their future security. 
Such has been the patient suffering of these 
colonies, and such is now the necessity which 
constrains them to alter their former systems 
of government. The history of the present 
king of Great Britain is a history of. repeated 
ijjjuries and usurpations, all having m direct 
object the establishment of an absolute 
tyranny over these states. To prove this, let 
facts be submitted to a candid world. 

He has refused his assent to laws .the tnost 
wholesome and necessary for the public good. 

He has forbidden his governors to pass laws 
of immediate and pressing importance, unless 
suspended in their operation till his assent 
Should be obtained, and, when so suspended, 
he has utterly neglected to attend to them. 

He has refused to pass other laws for the 
accommodation of large districts of people, un- 
less those people would relinquish the right of 
representation in the legislature a right ines- 
timable to them and formidable to tyrants 

He' has called together legislative bodies at 
places unusual, uncomfortable and distant 
from the repository of their public records, 
for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into 
compliance with his measures. 

He has dissolved representative houses re- 
peatedly for opposing with manly firmness his 
invasions on the rights of the people. 

He has refused for a long time after such 
dissolutions to cause others to be elected: 
whpre>~y the legislative powers, incapable of 
annihilation, have returned to the people at 
large for their exercise: the state remaining. 



in the meantime, exposed to all the dangers 
of invasion from without and convulsions 
within. 

He has endeavored to prevent the popula- 
tion of these states: for that purpose ob- 
structing the laws for naturaUzation of for- 
eigners: refusing to pass others to encourage 
their migration hither, and raising the con- 
ditions of new appropriations of lands. 

He has obstructed the administration of jus- 
tice by refusing his assent to laws for estab- 
lishing his judiciary powers. 

He has made judges dependent on his will 
alone for the tenure of their oflBces and the 
amount and payment of their salaries. 

He has erected a multitude of new offices 
and sent hither swarms of officers to harass 
our people and eat out their substance. 

He has kept among us. in times of peace, 
standing armies without the consent of our 
legislatures. 

He has affected to render the military inde- 
pendent of and superior to the civil power. 

He has combined with others to subject us 
to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitutions 
and unacknowledged by our laws, giving his 
assent to their acts of pretended legislation; 

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops 
among us; 

For protecting them by a mock trial from 
punishment for any murders which they 
should commit on the inhabitants of these 
states : 

For cutting off our trade with all parts of 
the world: 

For imposing taxes on us without our con- 

For depriving us in many cases of the ben- 
efits of trial by jury; 

For transporting us beyond seas to be tried 
for pretended offenses; 

For abolishing the free system of English 
laws in a neighboring province, establishing 
therein an arbitraiy government, and enlarg- 
ing its boundaries so as to render it at once 
an example and fit instrument for introducing 
the same absolute rule into these colonies: 

For taking away our charters, abolishing 
our most valuable laws and altering funda- 
mentally the forms of our governments: 

For suspending our own legislatures and de- 
claring themselves invested with power to leg- 
islate for us in all cases whatsoever. 

He has abdicated government here by de- 
claring us out of his protection and waging 
war against us. 

He has plundered our seas, ravaged our 
co;ists. burnt our towns and destroyed the 
lives of our people. 

He is at this time transporting large armies 
of foreign mercenaries to complete the work 
of death, desolation and tyranny already be- 
gun, with circumstances of cruelty and per- 
fidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous 
ages and totally unworths' the head of a 
civilized nation. 

He has constrained our fellow citizens taken 
captive upon the high seas to bear arms 
against their country, to become the execu- 
tioners of their friends and brethren or to 
fall themselves by their hands. 

He has excited domestic insurrection amongst

habitants of our frontiers the merciless In- 
dian savagres. whose known rvile of warfare is 
an undistinguished destruction of all ages, 
sexes and conditions. 

In every stage of these oppressions we have 
petitioned for redress, in the most humble 
terms: our repeated petitions have been an- 
swered only by repeated injury. A prince 
whose character is thus marked by every act 
which may define a tyrant is unfit to be the 
ruler of a free people. 

Nor have we been wanting in attention to 
our British brethren. We have warned them, 
from time to time, of attempts by their legis- 
lature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction 
over us. We have reminded them of the cir- 
cumstances of our emigration and settlement 
here. We have appealed to their native jus- 
tice and magnanimity, and we have conjured 
them by the ties of our common kindred, to 
disavow these usurpations, which would in- 
evitably interrupt our connections and cor- 
respondence. They. too. have been deaf to 
the voice of justice and consanguinity. We 
must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity 
which denounces our separation, and hold 
them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies 
in war: in peace, friends. 

We. therefore, the representatives of the 
United States of America, in general congress 
assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of 
the World for the rectitude of our intentions, 
do. in the name and by the authority of the 
good people of these colonies, solemnly pub- 
lish and declare that these united colonies are. 
and of right ought to be. free and independent 
states: that they are absolved from all alle- 
giance to the British crown, and that all po- 
litical connection between them and the state 
of Great Britain is. and ought to be. totally 
dissolved: and that as free and independent 
states they have full power to levy war. con- 
clude peace, contract alliances, establish com- 
merce and to do all other acts and things 



which independent states may of right do. 
And for the support of this declaration, with a 
firm reliance on the protection of Divine Prov- 
idence, we mutually pledge to each other our 
lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.

WASmNGTON'S FAREWELL ADDRESS. 



To the people of the United States: 

Friends and Fellow Citizens: The period 
for la new election of a citizen to administer 
the executive government of the United States 
being not far distant, and the time actually 
arrived when your thoughts must be em- 
ployed in designating the person who is to 
be clothed with ihat important trust, it 
appears to me proper, especially as it may 
conduce to a more distinct expression of the 
public voice, that I should now apprise you 
of the resoluti-jn I have formed, to decline 
being considered among the number of those 
out of whom a choice is to be made. 

I beg you, at the same time, to do me 
the justice to be assured that this resolu- 
tion has not been taken without a strict 
regard to all the considerations appertaining 
to the relation which binds a dutiful citizen 
to his country; and that, in withdrawing the 
teader of service which silence in my sit- 
uation might imply. I am influenced by no 
diminution of zeal for your future interest: 
no deficiency of grateful respect for your 
past kindness: but am supported by a full 
conviction that the step is compatible with 
both. 

The acceptance of and continuance hitherto 
in the office to which yovir suffrages have 
twice called me have been a uniform sacrifice 
of inclination to the opinion of duty and 
to a deference for what appeared to be 
your desire. I constantly hoped that it would 
have been much earlier in my power, ccn- 
sistently with the motives which I was not 
at liberty to disregard, to i-eturn to that re- 
tirement from which I had been reluctantly 
drawn. The strength of my inclination to 
do this previous to the last election had 
even led to the preparation of an address 
to declare it to you; but mature reflection on 



the then perplexed and critical posture of 
our affairs with foreign nations and the 
unanimous advice of persons entitled to my 
confidence impelled me to abandon the idea. 

I rejoice that the state of your concerns, 
external as well as internal, no longer render 
the pursuit of inclination incompatible with 
the sentiment of duty or propriety: and am 
persuaded, whatever partiality may be re- 
tained for my services, that in the present 
circumstances of our country you will not 
disapprove my determination to retire. 

The impressions with which I first under- 
took the arduous trust were explained on the 
proper occasion. In the discharge of this 
trust I will only say that I have, with good 
intentions, contributed towards the organiza- 
tion and administration of the government 
the best exertions of which a very fallible 
judgment was capable. Not unconscious in 
the outset of the inferiority of my qualifica- 
tions, experience, in my own eyes, perhaps 
still more in the eyes of others, has strength- 
ened the motives to diffidence of myself: and. 
every day, the increasing weight of years 
admonishes me more and more that the 
shade of retirement is as necessary to me as 
it will be welcome. Satisfied that if any 
circumstances have given peculiar value to 
my services they were temporary, I have the 
consolation to believe that, while choice and 
prudence invite me to quit the political 
scene, patriotism does not forbid it. 

In looking forward to the moment which 
is to terminate the career of my political lif** 
my feelings do not permit me to suspend 
the deep acknowledgment of that debt of 
gratitude which I owe to my beloved coun- 
try, for the many honors it has conferred 
upon me; still more for the steadfast confi- 
dence with which it has supported me: and 



56 



ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



for the opportunities I have thence enjoyed 
of manifesting- my inviolable attachment, by 
services faithful and persevering-, thourh in 
usefulness unequal to my zeal. If benefits 
have resulted to our country from these 
services, let it always be remembered to your 
praise, and as an instructive example in our 
annals, that under circumstances in -which 
the passions, ag-itated in every direction, 
were liable to mislead amidst appearances 
sometimes dubious, vicissitudes of fortune 
often discoura^ng- in situations in which not 
unfrequently want of success has counte- 
nanced the spirit of criticism the constancy 
of your support was the ess'ential prop of the 
efforts, and a guarantee of the plans, by 
which they were effected. Profoundly pen- 
etrated with this idea, I shall carry it with 
me to my grave a a strong incitement to 
unceasing- vcws that heaven may continue 
to you the choicest tokens of its beneficence 
that your imion and brotherly affection 
may be perpetual that the free constitution, 
w^ich is the work of your hands, may be 
sacredly maintained that its administration 
in every department may be stamped with 
wisdom and virtup that, in fine, the happi- 
ness of the people of these states, under 
the auspices of liberty, may be made complete 
by so careful a preservation and so prudent 
a use of this blessing- as will acquire to 
them the g-lory of recommending- it to the 
applause, the affection and adopti-on of every 
nation which is yet a stranger to it. 

Here, perhaps, I ought to stop. But a solici- 
tude for your welfare, which cannot end but 
with my life, and the apprehension of danger, 
natural to that solicitude, urge me, on an 
occasion like the present, to offer to your 
Bolemn contemplation and to recommend to 
your frequent review some sentiments which 
are the ^result of much reflection, of no in- 
considerable observ^ation, and which appear 
to me all important to the permanency of 
your felicity as a people. These will be of- 
fered to you with the more freedom, as you 
can only see in them the disinterested warn- 
ings of a parting friend, who can possibly 
have no personal motive to bias his counsel. 
Nor can I forget as an encouragement to it 
your indulgent reception of my sentiments on 
a former and not dissimilar occasion. 

Interwoven as is the love of liberty with 
every ligament of your hearts, no recommen- 
dation of mine is necessary to fortify or con- 
firm the attachment. 

The unity of government which constitutes 
you one people is also now dear to you. It 
is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the 
edifice of your real independence: the support 
of your tranquillity at home, your peace 
abroad: of your safety: of your prosperity: of 
that very liberty which you so highly prize. 
But, as it is easy to foresee that from differ- 
ent causes and from different quarters much 
pains will be taken, many artifices employed, 
to weaken in your minds the con-viction of 
this truth: as this is the point in your politi- 
cal fortress against -which the batteries of in- 
ternal and extetrnal enemies will be most con- 
stantly and actively (though often covertly 
and insidiously) directed, it is of infinite mo- 
ment that you should properly estimate the 
immense value of your national union to your 
collective and individual happiness: that you 
should cherish a cordial, habitual and im- 
movable attachment to it: accustoming your- 
selves to think and speak of it as of the 
palladium of your political safety and pros- 
perity; watching for its preservation with 
jealous anxiety: discountenancing whatever 
may suggest even a suspicion that it can, in 
any event, be abandoned: and indignantly 
frowning" upon the first dawning of every at- 
tempt to alienate any portion of our country 



from the rest or to enfeeble the sacred ties 
which now link together the various parts. 

For this you have every inducement of sym- 
pathy and interest. Citizens by birth, or 
choice, of a common country, that country 
has a right to concentrate your affections. The 
name of American, which belongs to you in 
you'r national capacity, must always exalt the 
]ust pride of patriotism more than any ap- 
pellation derived from local discriminations. 
With slight shades of difference, you have the 
same Teligion. manners, habits and political 
principles. You have, in a common cause, 
fought and triumphed together; the independ- 
ence and liberty you possess are the work 
of joint counsels and joint efforts, of com- 
mon dangers, sufferings and successes. 

But these considerations, however power- 
fully they address themselves to your sensi- 
bility, are greatly outweighed by those which 
apply more immediately to your interest. 
Here every portion of our country finds the 
most commanding motives for carefully guard- 
ing and preserving the union of the whole. 

The north, in an unrestrained intercourse 
with the south, protected by the equal laws 
of a common g-ovemment, finds in the pro- 
ductions of the latter great additional re- 
sources of maritime and commercial enter- 
prise, and precious materials of manufacturing 
industrj'. The south, in the same intercourse 
benefiting by the same agency of the north, 
sees its agriculture grow and its commerce 
expend. Turning partly into its own chan- 
nels the seamen of the north, it finds its par- 
ticular navigation invigorated; and while it 
eontribut.js, in different ways, to nourish and 
increase the general mass of the national 
navigation, it looks forward to the protection 
of a maritime strength, to which itself is 
unequally adapted. The east, in a like in- 
tercourse with the west, already finds, and in 
the progressive improvement of interior com- 
munications by land and water, will more 
and more find a valuable vent for the com- 
modities which it brings from abroad or man- 
ufactures at home. The west derives from 
the east supplies requisite to its growth and 
comfort and, what is perhaps of still greater 
consequence, it must of necessity owe the 
secure enjoyment of indispensable outlets for 
its own productions to the weight, influence 
and the future maritime strength of the 
Atlantic side of the union, directed by an 
indissoluble community of interest as one na- 
tion. Any other tenure by which the west. 
can hold this essential advantage, whether 
derived from its own separate strength or 
from an apostate and unnatural connection 
with any foreign power, must be intrinsically 
precarious. 

While then every part of our country thus 
feels an immediate and particular interest 
in union, all the parts combined cannot fail 
to find in the united mass of means and 
efforts greater strength, greater resources, nro- 
portionably greater security from external 
danger, a less frequent interruption of their 
peace by foreign nations; and, what is of in- 
estimable value, they must derive from unicn 
an exemption from those broils and wars 
between themselves, which so frequently af- 
flict neighboring countries not tied together 
by the same government, which their own re- 
lationship would be sufficient to produce, but 
which opposite foreign alliances, attachments 
and intrigues would stimulate and encouragre. 
Hence, likewise, they will avoid the necessity 
of those overgrown military establishments 
which, under any form of grovemment, are 
inauspicious to liberty, and which are to be 
particularly hostile to republican liberty. In 
this sense it is that your union ought to be 
considered as the main prop of your liberty. 



ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923.

and that the love of the one ought to endear 
to you the preservation of the other. 

These considea'atioiis Speak a persuasive 
lang-uagre to. every reflecting- and virtuous 
mind, and exhibit the continuance of the 
unioo^ as a primary object of patriotic de- 
sire. Is there a doubt whether a common 
g-overnment can embrace so large a sphere? 
Let experience solve it. To listen to mere 
speculation in such a case were criminal. 
We are authorized to hope that a proper 
organization of the whole, with the auxiliary 
ag'ency of g^overnments for the respective 
subdivisions, will afford a happy issue to the 
experiment. It is well worth a fair and full 
experiment. With suoh powerful and obvious 
motives to union affecting all parts of our 
countiT, while experience shall not have 
dem,onstrated its impractioabiiity, there al- 
ways will be reason to distrust the patriotism, 
of those who in any quarter may endeavor 
to weaken its hands. 

In contemplating- the causes which may 
disturb our union, it occurs as a matter of 
serious comcera that any ground should have 
been furnished for characterizing- parties by 
geographical considerations noopthern and 
southern, Atlantic and western whence de- 
signing- men may endeavor to excite a belief 
that there is a real difference of local inter- 
ests and views. One of the expedients of 
party to acquire influence within particular 
disti^icts is to misrepresent the opinions and 
aims of other districts. You cannot shield 
yourselves too much against the jealousies 
and heartburning's which spring- from these 
misrepresentations; they tend to render alien 
to ejach other those who ought to be bound 
tog-ether by fraternal affection. The inhab- 
itants of our western country have lately had 
a useful lesson on this head. They have 
seen in the neg-otiation by the executive and 
the unanimous ratification by the senate of 
the treaty with Spain, and in the universal 
satisfaction at the event throug-hout the 
United States, a decisive proof how unfounded 
were the suspicions propag-ated among- them 
of a policy in the g-eneral g-overnment and 
in the Atlantic states unfriendly to their in- 
terests in regard to the Mississippi. They 
have been witnesses to the formation of two 
treaties that with Great Britain and that 
with Spain which secure to them everything- 
they could desire in respect to our foreign 
relations toward confirming- their prosperity. 
Will it not be their wisdom to rely for the 
preservation of these advantages on the 
union by which they were secured? Will 
they not henceforth be deaf to those ad- 
visers, if such they are, who would sever 
them from their brethren and connect them 
with aliens? 

To the efficacy and permanency of your 
union a g-overnment for the whole is indis- 
pensable. No alUances, however strict, be- 
tween the parts can be an adequate substi- 
tute. They must inevitably experience the 
infractions and interruptions which all al- 
liances in a,ll times have experienced. Sen- 
sible of this momentous truth, you have im- 
proved upon ycoir first essay by the adoption 
of a constitution of government better calcu- 
lated than your former for an intimate 
union and for the efficacious manag-ement of 
your common concerns. This government, 
the offspring- of your own choice, uninfluenced 
and unawed, adopted upon full investigation 
and mature deliberation, completely free in 
its principles, in the distribution of its powers, 
uniting security with energ-y, and containing' 
within itself a provision for its own 
amendment, has a Just claim to your confi- 
dence and your support. Resi)ect for its 
authority, compliance with its laws, acqui- 
escence in its measures, are duties enjoined 



by the fundamental maxims of true liberty. 
The basis of our political systems is the right 
of the people to make and alter their consti- 
tutions of government. But the constitution 
which at any time exists, until changed by an 
explicit and authentic act of the whole people, 
is sacredly obligatory upon all. The very idea 
of the power and the right of the people to 
establish giovernment presupposes the duty of 
every individual to obey the established gov- 
ernment. 

All obstructions to the executions of the 
laws, all combinations and associations, under 
whatever plausible character, with the real 
design to direct, control, counteract, or awe 
the regular deliberations and action of the 
constituted authorities, are destructive of this 
fundamental principle and of fatal tendency. 
They serve to organize faction; to give it an 
artificial and extraordinary force; to put in 
the place of the delegated will of the nation 
the will of a party, often a small but artful 
and enterprising minority of the community, 
and, according to the alternate triumphs of 
the different parties, to make the public ad- 
ministration the mirror of the ill concerted 
and incongruous projects of faction rather 
than the organ of consistent and wholesome 
plans, digested by common counsels and modi- 
fied by mutual interests. 

However combinations or associations of the 
above description may now and then answer 
popular ends, they are likely in the course of 
time and things to become potent engines by 
which cunning, ambitious and unprincipled 
men will be enabled to subvert the will of 
the people, to usurp for themselves the reins 
of government, destroying afterwards the 
very engines which have lifted them to im- 
jusit dominion. 

Toward the preservation of your govern- 
ment and the permanency of your present 
happy state it is requisite not only that you 
steadily discountenance irregular opposition to 
its acknowledged authority, but also that you 
resist with care the spirit of innovation upon 
its principles, however specious the pretext. 
One method of assault may be to effect, in the 
forms of the constitution, alterations which 
will impair the energy of the system; and 
thus to undermine what cannot be directly 
overthrown. In all the changes to which you 
may be invited, remember that time and habit 
are at least as necessary to fiLx the true char- 
acter of governments as of other human in- 
stitutions that experience is the surest stand- 
ard by which to test the real tendency of the 
existing constitution of a country that facil- 
ity in changes, upon the credit of mere hy- 
pothesis and opinion, exposes to perpetual 
change from the endless variety of hypothesis 
and opinion; and remember, especially, that 
for the efficient management of your common 
interests in a, country so extensive as ours a 
government of as much vigor as is consistent 
with the perfect security of liberty is indis- 
pensable. Liberty itself mU find in such a 
government, with powers properly distributed 
and adjusted, its surest guardian. It is, in- 
deed, little else than a name where the gov- 
ernment is too feeble to withstand the enter- 
prises of faction, to confine each member of 
the society within the limits prescribed by the 
laws, and to maintain all in the secure and 
tranquil enjoyment of the rights of person and 
property. 

i have already intimated to you the danger 
of parties in the state, with particular refer- 
ences to the founding them on geographioal 
discrimination. Let me now take a more com- 
prehensive "View, and warn you in the most 
solemn manner against the baneful effects of 
the spirit of party generally. 

This spirit, unfortunately, is inseparable 
from our nature, having its root in the 



58 



AliMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



strong-est passions of the human mind. It ex- 
ists under different shapes in all grovernments, 
more oo- less stifled, controlled or repressed: 
hut in those of the popular form it is seen in 
its greatest rankness, and it is truly their 
worst enemy. 

The alternate domination of one faction over 
another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge 
natural to party dissensnon. which in different 
ages and countries has perpetrated the most 
horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despot- 
ism. But this leads at length to a more 
formal and permanent despotism. The disor- 
ders and miseries which result gradually in- 
cline the minds of men to seek security and 
repose in the absolute power of an individual: 
and sooner or later, the chief of some pre- 
vailing faction, more able or more fortunate 
than his competitors, turns this disposition to 
the purpose of his own elevation on the ruins 
of 'public liberty. .. ^# 

Without looking- forward to an extremity of 
this kind (which, nevertheless, ought not to 
be entirely out of sight), the. common and 
continual mischiefs of the spint of Party are 
sufficient to make it the interest and duty of 
a wise people to discourage and restrain it. 

It serves always to distract the public coun- 
cils and enfeeble the public administration 
It agitates the community with ill-founded 
jealousies and false alarms; kindles the ani- 
mosity of one part against another; foments 
occasional riot and insurrection. It opens the 
door to foreign influence and corruption, 
which finds a facilitated access to the govern- 
ment itself through the channels of party 
passions. Thus the policy and the will of one 
country are subjected to the policy and will 
of another. . . 

There is an opinion that parties m free coun- 
tries are useful checks upon the administra- 
tion of the government, and serve to keep 
alive the spirit of liberty. This wathin cer- 
tain 'limits is probably true; and in govern- 
ments of a monarchial cast, patriotism may 
look with indulgence, if not with favor, upon 
the spirit of party. But in those of the popu- 
lar character, in governments purely elective, 
it is a spirit not to be encouraged. From 
their natural tendency it is certain there will 
always be enough of that spirit for every salu- 
tary purpose. And there being constant dan- 
ger of excess, the effort ought to be. by force 
of public opinion, to mitigate and assuage it. 
A fire not to be quenched, it demands a uni- 
form vigilance to prevent it bursting into a 
flame, lest, instead of warming, it should con- 
sume. 

It is important likewise that the habits of 
thinking in a free country should inspire cau- 
tion in those intrusted with its administration 
to confine themselves within their respective 
constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exer- 
cise of the powers of one department to en- 
croach upon another. The spirit of encroach- 
ment tends to consolidate the powers of all 
the departments in one, and thus to create, 
whatever the form of government, a real des- 
potism. A just estimate of that love of power 
and pronenes8 to abuse it which predominate 
in the human heart Is sufficient to satisfy us 
of the truth of this position. The necessity of 
reciprocal checks in the exercise of political 
power, by dividing and distributing it into dif- 
ferent depositories, and constituting each the 
guardian of the public weal against invasions 
of the others, has been evinced by experiments 
ancient and modem; some at them in our 
country and under our own eyes. To preserve 
them must be as necessary as to institute 
them. If, in the opinion of the people, the 
distribution or modification of the constitu- 
tional powers be in any particular wrong, let 
it be corrected by an amendment in the way 
which the constitution designates. But let 



there be no change by usurpation; for though 
this, in one instance, may be the instrument 
of good, it is the customary weapon by which 
free governments are destroyed. The prece- 
dent must always greatly overbalance in per- 
manent evil any partial or transient benefit 
which the use can at any time yield. 

Of all the dispositions and habits which lead 
to political prosperity, religion and morality 
are indispensable supports. In vain would that 
man claim the tribute of patriotism who 
should labor to subvert these great pillars of 
human happiness, these firmest props of the 
duties of men and citizens. The mere poli- 
tician, equally with the pious man. ought to 
respect and to cherish them. A volume 
could not trace all their connections with 
private and public felicity. Let it simply 
be asked, where is the security for property, 
for reputation, for life, if the sense of re- 
ligious obligation desert the oaths which are 
the instruments of invrestig-ation in courts of 
justice? And let us with caution indulge the 
supposition that morality can be maintained 
without religion. Whatever may be conceded 
to the influence of refined education on 
minds of peculiar structure, reason and ex- 
peirience both forbid us to expect that na- 
tional morality can prevail in exclusion ol 
religious principle. 

It is substantially true that virtue or 
morality is a necessary spring of popular 
government. The rule, indeed, extends with 
more or less force to every species of free 
government. Who that is a sincere friend 
to it can look with indifference upon attempts 
to shake the foundation of the fabric? 

Promote, then, as an object of primary im- 
portance, institutions for the general dif- 
fusion of knowledge. In proportion as the 
structure of a government gives force to pub- 
lic opinion it should be enlightened. 

As a very important source of strength 
and security, cherish public credit. One meth- 
od of preserving it is to use it as sparingly 
as possible, avoiding occasions of expense by 
cultivating peace, but remembering, also, 
that timely disbursements, to prepare for 
danger, frequently prevent much greater dis- 
bursements to repel it; avoiding likewise the 
accumulation of debt, not only by shunning 
occasions of expense, but by vigiorous exer- 
tions, in time of peace, to discharge the debts 
which unavoidable wars may have occasioned, 
not ungenerously throwing upon posterity the 
burden which we ourselves ought to bear. 
The execution of these maxims belongs to 
your representatives, but it is necessary that 
public opinion should co-operate. To facili- 
tate to them the performance of their duty, 
it is essential that you should practically 
bear in mind, that toward the payment of 
debts there must be revenue; that to have 
revenue there must be taxes; that no taxes 
can be devised which are not more or less 
inconvenient and unpleasant; that the in- 
trinsic embarrassment inseparable from the 
selection of the proper object (which is al- 
ways a choice of difficulties), ought to be a 
decisive motive for a candid construction of 
the conduct of the government in making it, 
and for a spirit of acquiescence in the meas- 
ures for obtaining revenue which the public 
exigencies may at any time dictate. 

Observe good faith and justice toward all 
nations. Cultivate peace and harmony with 
all. Religion and morality enjoin this con- 
duet. And can it be that good policy does not 
equally enjoin it? It will be worthy of a 
free, enlightened, and at no distant period a 
great nation to give to mankind the magnani- 
mous and too novel example of a people 
always guided by an exalted justice and benev- 
olence. Who can doubt that in the course of 
time and things the fruits of such a plan

would richly repay any temporary advantages 
which might be lost by a steady adherence to 
it? Can it be that Providence has not con- 
nected the permanent felicity of a nation with 
its virtue? The experiment, at least, is recom- 
mended by every sentiment which ennobles 
human nature. Alas! is it rendered impossi- 
ble by its vices? 

In the execution of such a plan nothing- is 
more essential than that permanent, inveterate 
antipathies against particular nations and pas- 
sionate attachments for others should be ex- 
cluded, and that in place of them just and 
amicable feelings toward all should be culti- 
vated. The nation which indulges toward an- 
other an habitual hatred or an habitual fond- 
ness is in some degree a slave. It is a slave 
to its animosity or to its affection, either of 
which is sufficient to lead it astray from its 
duty and its interest. Antipathy in one nation 
against another disposes each more readily to 
offer insult and injury, to lay hold of slight 
causes of umbrage, and to be haughty and 
intractable when accidental or trifling occa- 
sions of dispute occur. 

Hence frequent collisions, obstinate, en- 
venomed and bloody contests. The nation 
prompted by ill will and resentment sometimes 
impels to Vrar the goveiTiment centre ry to the 
best calculations of policy. The government 
sometimes participates in the national propen- 
sity, and adopts through passion what reason 
would reject. At other times it makes the 
animosity of the nation subservient to projects 
of hostility, instigated by pride, ambition and 
other sinister and pernicious motives. The 
peace often, sometimes perhaps the liberty, of 
nations has been the victim. 

So, likewise, a passionate attachment of 
one nation for another produces a variety of 
evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, 
facilitating the illusion of an imaginary com- 
mon interest in cases where no real common 
interest exists and infusing into one the 
enmities of the other, betrays the former into 
a participation in the quarrels and wars of 
the latter without adequate inducement or 
justification. It leads also to concessions to 
the favorite nation of privileges denied to 
others, which is apt doubly to injure the na- 
tion making the concessions by unnecessarily 
parting with what ought to have been re- 
tained, and by exciting jealousy, ill will, and 
a disposition to retaliate in the parties from 
whom equal privileges are withheld: and it 
gives to ambitious, corrupted or deluded citi- 
zens (who devote themselves to the favorite 
nation) facility to betray or sacrifice the in- 
terests of their own country without odium, 
sometimes even with popularity, gilding with 
the appearances of a virtuous sense of obli- 
gation a commendable deference for public 
opinion or a laudable zeal for public good, 
the base or foolish compliances of ambition, 
corruption or infatuation. 

As avenues to foreign influence in innu- 
merable ways, such attachments are particu- 
larly alarming to the truly enlightened and in- 
dependent patriot. How many opportunities do 
they afford to tamper with domestic factions, 
to practice the arts of seduction, to mislead 
public opinion, to influence or awe the public 
councils! Such an attachment of a small or 
weak toward a great and powerful nation 
dooms the former to be the satellite of the 
latter. Against the insidious wiles of for- 
eign influence (I conjure you to believe me, 
fellow citizens) the jealousy of a free people 
ought to be constantly awake, since history 
and experience prove that foreign influence is 
one of the most baneful foes of republican 
government. But that jealousy, to be useful, 
must be impartial, else it becomes the instru- 
ment of the very influence to be avoided, in- 
stead of a defense against it. Excessive par- 
tiality for one foreign nation and excessive dis- 



like of another cause those whom they actu- 
ate to see danger only on one side, and serve 
to veil and even second the arts of influence 
on the other. Real patriots who may resist 
the intrigues of the favorite are liable to be- 
come suspected and odious, while its tools and 
dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the 
people to surrender their interests. 

The great rule of conduct for us in regard 
to foreign nations is in extending our com- 
mercial relations to have with them as little 
political connection as possible. So far as we 
have already formed engagements let them be 
fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let ua 
stop. 

Europe has a set of primary interests which 
to us have none or a very remote relation. 
Hence she must be engaged in frequent con- 
troversies, the causes of which are essentially 
foreign to our concerns. Hence, therefore, it 
must be unwise in us to implicate ourselves 
by artificial ties in the ordinary vicissitudes of 
her politics or the ordinary combinations and 
collisians of her friendships or enmities. 

Our detached and distant situation invites; 
and enables us to pursue a different course. If 
we remain one people, under an efficient gov- 
ernment, the period is not far off when we 
may defy material injury from' external an- 
noyance; when we may take such an attitude 
as will cause the neutrality we may at any 
time resolve upon to be scrupulously respected; 
when belligerent nations, under the impossibil- 
ity of making acquisitions upon us. will not 
lightly hazard the giving us provocation: when 
we may choose peace or war. as oiir interest, 
guided by justice, shall counsel. 

Why forego the advantages of so peculiar 
a situation? Why quit our own to stand upon 
foreign ground? Why, by interweaving our 
destiny with that of any part of Etirope, en- 
tangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of 
European ambition, rivalship. interest, humor 
or caprice? 

It is our true policy to steer clear of perma- 
nent alliances with any portion of the foreiffn 
world, so far, I mean, as we are now at liberty 
to do it: for let me not be understood as 
capable of patronizing infidelity to existinff 
engagements. I hold the maxim no less ap- 
plicable to public than to private affairs that 
honesty is always the best policy. I repeat, 
therefore, let those engagements be observed 
in their genuine sense. But in my opinion it is 
unnecessary and would be unwise to extend 
them. 

Taking care always to keep ourselves by 
suitable establishments on a respectable de- 
fensive posture, we may safely trust to tem- 
porary alliances for extraordinary emergencies. 

Harmony, liberal intercourse with all na- 
tions are recommended by policy, humanity and 
interest. But even our commercial policy 
should hold an equal and impartial hand, nei- 
ther seeking nor granting exclusive favors or 
preferences: consulting the natural course of 
things; diffusing and diversifying' by gentle 
means the streams of commerce, but forcing 
nothing: establishing with powers so disposed, 
in order to give trade a stable course, to de- 
fine the rights of our merchants, and to enabl-^ 
the government to support them, conventional 
rules of intercourse, the best that present cir- 
cumstances and mutual opinion will permit, 
but temporary and liable to be from time to 
time abandoned or varied as experience and 
circumstances shall dictate; constantly keeping 
in view that it is folly in one nation to look 
for disinterested favors from another; that it 
must pay with a portion of its independence 
for whatever it may accept under that char- 
acter; that by such acceptance it may place 
itself in the condition of having given equiva- 
lents for nominal favors, and yet of being re- 
proached with ingratitude for not giving more. 
There can be no greater error than to expect 



60 



ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



or calculate upon real favors from nation to 
nation. It is an illusion which experience 
must cure, which a just pride ought to dis- 
card. 

In offering- to you, my countrymen, these 
counsels of an old and affectionate friend, I 
dare not hope they will make the strong and 
lasting impression I could wish that they will 
control the usual current of the passions or 
prevent our nation from running the course 
which has hitherto marked the destiny of na- 
tions. But if I may even flatter myself that 
they may be productive of some partial bene- 
fit, some occasional good that they may now 
and then recur to moderate the fury of party 
spirit, to warn against the mischiefs of for- 
eign intrigue, to guard against the Impostures 
of pretended patriotism this hope will be a 
full recompense for the solicitude for your 
welfare by which they have been dictated. 

How far in the discharge of my official du- 
ties I have been guided by the principles which 
have been delineated the public records and 
other evidences of my conduct must witness to 
you and to the world. To myself, the as- 
surance of my own conscience is that I have 
at least believed myself to be guided by them. 

In relation to the still subsisting war in 
Europe my proclamation of the 32d of April, 
1793, is the index to my plan. Sanctioned by 
your approving voice and by that of your rep- 
resentatives in both houses of congress, the 
spirit of that measure has continually gov- 
erned me, uninfluenced by any attempts to 
deter or divert me from it. 

After deliberate examination, with the aid 
of the best lights I could obtain, I was well 
satisfied that our country, under all the cir- 
cumstances of the case, had a right to take 
and was bound in duty and interest to take a 
neutral position. Having taken it, I deter- 
mined as far as should depend upon me to 
maintain it with moderation, perseverance and 
firmness. . 

The considerations which respect the nght 
to hold this conduct it is not necessary on 
this occasion to detail. I will only observe 
that, according to my understanding of the 



matter, that right, so far from being denied 
by any of the belligerent powers, has been vir- 
tually admitted by all. 

The duty of holding a neutral conduct may 
be inferred, without anything more, from the 
obligation which justice and humanity impose 
on every nation, in cases in w^hieh it is free 
to act, to maintain inviolate the relations of 
peace and amity toward other nations. 

The inducements of interest for observing 
that conduct will best be referred to your own 
reflections and experience. With me a pre- 
dominant motive has been to endeavor to gain 
time to our country to settle and mature its 
yet recent institutions, and to progress with- 
out interruption to that degree of strength and 
consistency which is necessary to give it, hu- 
manly speaking, the command of its own 
fortunes. 

Though in reviewing the incidents of my ad- 
ministration, I am unconscious of intentional 
error. I am nevertheless too sensible of my 
defects not to think it probable that I may 
have committed many errors. Wbatever they 
may be, I fervently beseech the Almighty to 
avert or mitigate the evils to which they may 
tend. I 'Shall also carry with me the hope 
that my country will never cease to view them 
with indulgence; and that, after forty-five 
years of my life dedicated to its service, with 
an upright zeal, the faults of incompetent 
abilities will be consigned to oblivion, as my- 
self must soon be to the mansions of rest. 

Relying on its kindness in this as in other 
things, and actuated by that fervent love to- 
wards it which is so natural to a man who 
views in it the native soil of himself and his 
progenitors for several generations, I antici- 
pate with pleasing expectation that retreat in 
which I promise myself to realize, without 
alloy, the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in 
the midst of my fellow citizens, the benign 
influence of good laws under a free govern- 
ment the ever favorite object of my heart, 
and the happy reward, as I trust, of ouir mu- 
tual cares, labors and dangers,

LINCOLN'S GETTYSBURG SPEECH. 

Address at the dedication of Gettysburg cemetery, Nov. 19, 1863 
Fourscore and seven years, ago our lathers , above our poor power to add or detract. The 



brought forth on this continent a new na 
tion, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the 
proposition that all men are created eaual. 

Now we are engaged in a great civil war. 
testing whether that nation, or an.v nation so 
conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. 
We are met on a great battle field of that 
war. We have come to dedicate a portion of 
that field as a final resting place of those 
who here gave their lives that that nation 
might live. It is altogether fitting and proper 
that we should do this. 

But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate^ 
we cannot consecrate we cannot hallow- this 
ground. The brave men. living and.^dead 



who struggled here have consecrated it, f ar_ the earth. 

PROPORTIONATE 

Relative frequency of the general 
letters of the English language in 



world will little note nor long remember what 
we say here, but it can never forget what 
they did here. It is for us the living, rather, 
to be dedicated here to the unfinished work 
which they who fought here have thus far so 
nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be 
here dedicated to the great task remaining 
before us that .from these honored dead we 
take increased devotion to that cause for which 
they gave the last full measure of devotion 
that we here highly, resolve that these dead 
shall not have died in vain that this nation, 
under God. shall have a new birth of freedom 
and that government of the people, by the

LINCOLN STATUE BY DANIEL C. FRENCH. 



MARBLE SHRINE IN WASHINGTON DEDI- 
CATED MAY 30. 1922. 

The beautiful Lincoln memorial erected by 
the American nation on the banks of the 
Potomac was formally dedicated May 30. 
1922. The completed structure was presented 
by Chief Justice Taft, chairman of the 
memorial commission, and was accepted on 
behalf of the g-overnment by President Warren 
G. Harding-. The invocation and benediction 
were delivered by the Rev. Wallace Radcliffe. 
pastor of the New York Avenue Presbj^erian 
church. Washing-ton, where Lincoln worshiped. 
Dr. Robert R. Moton of the Tuskegee institute 
paid a tribute to the emancipator of the negro 
race and Edwin Markham read his poem "Lin- 
coln the Man of the People." Among- those 
who attended the dedication were Robert T. 
Lincoln, the martyred president's son, and 
Mrs. Lincoln; Henry R. Bacon, architect of 
the memorial: Daniel Chester 'French, sculptor 
of the heroic seated figure of Lincoln placed 
in the center of the memorial, and Jules 
Guerin, designer of the allegorical frescoes. 
Others present were members of the Supreme 
court, foreign ambassadors and ministers and 
members of congress. Grand Army men. led 
by Lewis S. Pilcer, commander in chief, pre- 
sented the colors and laid symbols of the army 
and navy at the foot of the structure. A 
number of gray-clad Confederate veterans 
were seated along- the colonnade. 

President Harding- in his address laid stress 
on the fact that union and not emancipation 
was the supreme g-oal of Abraham Lincoln. 
"His faith was inspiring, his resolution com- 
manding, his sympathy reassuring, his sim- 
plicity enlisting-, his patience unfailing. He 
was faith, patience and courage, with his 
head above the clouds, unmoved by the storms 
which raged about his feet." 

Chief Justice Taft in his speech gave a his- 
tory of the building- of the memorial and 
described some of the features of the shrine. 
Between the lines of his address was given an 
impression of the feat of the designers in plan- 
ning- a $3,000,000 memorial to Lincoln that is

recog-nized as one of the most beautiful struc- 
tures of its kind in the world. Beautixul as it 
is. one of the most remarkable accomplish- 
ments of the desigrners. it is considered, is the 
fact thj.t nothing- about it is incongruous with 
the simple, homely character of the man it 
commemorates, conforming at the same time 
in stateliness with the capitol and the Wash- 
ington monument. 

Nor has the memorial been complicated by 
elaborate symbolism. The thirty-six pul-e 
Doric columns that uphold the roof from the 
exterior represent the thirty-six states in the 
tinion maintained by Lincoln, while above the 
columns forty-eight sculptured festoons typify 
the states of the union as constituted at 
present. 

Within. Daniel Chester French's seated fig-- 



ure of Lincoln, heroic in proportions, looks 
out through the columns in the direction of 
the capitol dome and the Washington monu- 
ment with its reflection caught in the 1.000- 
foot long mirrored basin. The only other 
adornments within are Jules Guerin's frescoes, 
typifying- "Emancipation" and "Reunion." and 
the Gettysburg address and extracts from the 
second inaugural inscribed on the walls. 

Behind the statue is the following- inscrip- 
tion: 

"In this temple, as in the hearts of the 
people for whom he saved the union, the 
memory of Abraham Lincoln is enshrined 
forever." 

The memorial was erected under the pro- 
visions of an act of congress approved Feb. 
11. 1911.

FLAG OF THE 

Executive order 

It is hereby ordered that national flag-s and 
union jacks for all departments of the govern- 
ment, with the exception noted under (a), shall 
conform to the following' proportions: 

Hoist (width) of flag. 1. 

Fly (length) of flag. 1.9. 

Hoist (width) of union, 7-13, 

Fly (length) of union .76. 

Width of ea<:h stripe. 1-13. 

(a) Exception: The colors carried by troops 
and camp colors shall be the sizes prescribed 
for the military service (army and navy). 

Limitation of the number of sizes: With the 
exception of colors under note (a) the sizes of 
flags manufactured or purchased for the gov-^ 
ernment departments will be limited to those" 
with the following hoists: 

(1) 20 feet: (2) 19 feet (standard); (3) 
14.35 feet: (4) 12.19 feet; (5) 10 feet; (6) 
8.94 feet; (7) 5.14 feet; (8) 5 feet; (9) 
3.52 feet: (10) 2.90 feet; (11) 2.37 feet; 
(12) 1.31 feet. 

Union jacks: The size of the jack shall be 
the size of the union of the national flag with 
which it is flown. 

The national flag of the United States now 
consists of thirteen alternate red and white 
,stripes, representing the origrinal thirteen states, 
and a blue field on which are forty-eight white 
stars arranged in six rows of eight stars each, 
representing the forty-eight states now consti- 
tuting the union. The last two stars were 
added in 1912 when New Mexico and Arizona 
were officially admitted as states. 

Laws are in force in some of the states for- 
bidding the desecration or mutilation of the 
flag or its use in any way for advertising pur- 
poses. A federal law forbids the use of the 
national flag on trade-marks. 

The national flag was officially adopted by 
congress June 14, 1777. Accoirdingly June 14 
is now generally observed as Flag day. 



WHEN AND HOW TO USE THE FLAG. 
[By . B. Wicklander.] 

The flag should not be raised before sun- 
rise and should be lowered at sunset, but may 
fly at all times during war if intended for 
patriotic and not advertising purposes. In 
stormy weather it is considered unkind to 
permit the flag to fly except in battle, where 
it may wave night and day without regard 
for weather. 

The flag in times of peace is not permitted 
by correct usage to float all night except at 
the grave of Francis Scott Key. author of 
'The Star Spangled Banner." 

Displaying the Flag The flag, out of doors, 
should be flown from a pole whenever pos- 
sible, or a wire or rope. In the United 
States army all flags are suspended from poles 
and in no other way. The blue field is 
placed farthest from the house displaying it. 
except when facing a parade, with the flag 
suspended across the street with the stripes 
perpendicular, in which case the blue field 
goes in the upper left hand corner as viewed 
by the parade. 

Wliile raising or lowering the flag, it must 
not touch the ground: care for it tenderly 
and respectfully. 

Driving nails in the flag to hold it in place 
is considered wrong. Preferably it should be 
tied with red, white or blue cord, or tri- 
colored cord. 

Colors on Parade When the colors are pass-

ELECTRICAL UNITS DEFINED. 
Ohm Unit of resistance: represents resistance 
offered to an unvarying electi-ic current by a 
column of mercury at the temperature ol 
ice, 14.5421 grams in mass, of a cross-sec- 
tional area of 1.00003 square milhmeters and 
of the length of 106.3 centimeters. 
Ampere Unit of current, decomposes .0009324 
of a gram of water in one second or de- 
posits silver at the rate of .001118 of a 
gram per second, when passed through a 
solution of nitrate of silver in water. 
Volt Unit of electromotive force: one volt

equals one ampere of current passing' througrh 
a substance having: one ohm of resistance. 

Coulomb Unit of quantity; amount of elec- 
tricity transferred by a current of one am- 
pere in one second. 

Farad Unit of capacity; capacity of a con- 
denser chargred to a potential of one volt by 
one coulomb. A microfarad is one-naillionth 
of a farad. 

Joule ^Unit of work; equivalent to energy ex- 
pended in one second by one ampere current 
in one ohm resistance. 

Watt Unit of power; equivalent to work done 
at the rate of one joule per second. A kilo- 
watt is 1,000 watts.

WEIGHTS OF DIAiVIONDS 

The weight of diamonds and other precious 
stones is expressed in metric carats. The unit 
is the international carat of 300 milligrams, 
which has been officially adopted by the 
United States and most of the countries in 
Europe. Until July 1, 1913, there were three 
different standards in use in the United States, 
although the one generally accepted was 205.3 
milligrams. This was usually subdivided on 
the binary system, the smallest subdivision 
being 1-64 of the carat. The new carat is 
subdivided on the decimal system.

The fineness of gold is also expressed in 
carats. Pure gold is said to be twenty-four 
carats fine. If it contains eight parts of a 
baser metal or alloy it is only sixteen carats 
fine. The carats therefore indicate the pro- 
portion of pure gold to alloy. Most of the gold 
used by jewelers is about fourteen carats fine, 
having ten parts of alloy.

DEFINITIONS. 

Displacement is the amount of water dis- 
placed by a vessel. If a vessel is floating in 
equilibrium in still water, the weight of the 
water she displaces equals the weight of the 
vessel herself with everything on board. 

The displacement in cubic feet when floating 
in salt water divided by 35 (36 if in fresh 
water) gives the total weight of a ship and 
her cargo in tons, as 35 cubic feet of salt 
water weighs one ton (2,240 pounds) and 36 
of fresh water the same amount. 

The displacement of a steel vessel is calcu- 
lated to the molded lines (that is, to the out- 
side of the frames) and no allowance is made 
as a rule for the thickness of the shell plat- 
ing. For wooden vessels (motor boats, tugs, 
lighters, etc.) the displacement is calculated 
to the outside of the planking. 

Dead weight is the carrying capacity of a 
vessel and includes the tons of cargo and coal. 

Register ton measurement is the measure- 
ment based on a ton of 2,240 pounds occupy- 
ing 100 cubic feet. 



84 



ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



Gross tonnag-e is the measurement in regis- 
ter tons of the interior capacity of ,the entire 
ship. 

Net tonnage is the measurement in regrister 
tons upon which payment is made, and is the 
volume of the space available for cargo and 
passengers. 

Block coefficient Is the ratio of the volume 
of the displacement to the volutoe of a block 
having the same length, breadth and draft as 
the vessel. Cargo vessels have block coeffi- 
cients ranging from .75 to .85, while fast pas- 
senger steamers have block coefficients of 
about .65. 

If the length, width and draft of a vessel 
are multiplied by the block coefficient and 
this product divided by the weight of water 
per ton (36 cubic feet for fresh and 35 for 
salt water per ton of 2.240 pounds) the dis- 
placement of the vessel will be obtained. 

SHIPPING TERMS. 

1. o. b. steamer (free on board steamer) ; 
eoods to be delivered on board steamer by 
seller at no extra charge to purchaser. 

f. a. s. steamer (free at side steamer) : goods 
to be delivered at side of steamer by seller. 

f. f . a. steamer (free from alongside steamer) : 
the seller pays lighterage charges in the port 
of destination from the steamer. 

c. i. f . (cost, insurance and freight) : the 
goods are delivered to the purchaser with the 
insurance and freight paid by the seller. 

c. f. (cost and freight) : the goods are de- 
livered to the purchaser with the freight paid 
by the seller, but no insurance. 

f. o. (free over side) ; the goods are deliv- 
ered over the side of a vessel, that is. to a 
lighter or on to a pier, without any extra 
charge to the purchaser. 

Bill of lading (b. I.) is a receipt for goods 
delivered to a carrier for transportation. The 
bills of lading of some steamship companies 
contain the following clause: "Freight is to 
be considered earned at time of receipt of 
shipment and is to be paid whether vessel or 
goods are lost or not." In foreign trade bills 
of lading are generally made out in triplicate, 
one for the shipper, one for the consignee and 
one for the captain of the vessel. 

"With exchange" on a draft means that the 
party on whom the draft is drawn is to pay 
the cost of collection. 

Demurrage A charge for delay in loading or 
unloading a vessel. " 

Lay days are the days agreed upon by the 
shipper and captain or agent of a vessel for 
loading and discharging a cargo, beyond which 
a demurrage will be paid to the owners of the 
vessel. Sundays and legal holidays do not 
count unless the term "running days" is in- 
serted, in which case all days are included. 

Manifest A document signed by the captain 
of a vessel containing a list of the goods and 
merchandise on board with their destination, 
for the use of the custom house officials. By 
United States Revised Statutes 2807 it is re- 
quired to contain the names of the ports of 
loading and destination, a description of the 
vessel and her port, names of owners and 
master, names of consignees and of passen- 
gers and lists of the passengers' baggage and 
of the sea stores. 

Clearance papers When i*eady for sea the 
customs officials must be provided with a de- 
tail manifest of the ship's cargo. If the port 
charges have been paid and her cargo is 
properly accounted for, then the collector of 
the port will furnish the captain with clear- 
ance papers, without which the vessel must 
not leave port. ' 

Drawback A refund of duties paid on im- 



ported material that is used in the manufac- 
ture of goods that are exported. The United 
States government allows the exporter the 
import duty paid, less 1 per cent. 

Salvage The reward granted by law for sav- 
ing life and property at sea. 

Jettison The throwing overboard of a part 
of the cargo or any article on board of a 
ship for the purpose of lightening the ship in 
case of necessity. 

Bill of health A certificate stating that the 
vessel comes from a port where no contagious 
disease prevails, and that none of the pas- 
sengers (if carried) nor the crew at the time 
of departure was infected with any disease. 

MARINE INSURANCE. 

A contract of marine insurance is a con- 
tract of Indemnity whereby the insurer un- 
dertakes to indemnify the insured in the man- 
ner and to the extent agreed against marine 
losses; 1. e.. the losses incident to marine 
adventure. 

Unless specially mentioned in the policy, 
goods are not insured until they are on board 
of the vessel which is to carry them. Below 
are brief outlines of clauses and terms occur- 
ring in policies: 

(General average Suppose a vessel springs a 
leak and to save her from sinking the captain 
Wirows overboard a portion of her cargo. 
The last shipment loaded on board is generally 
the first to come out. 

If the shipment is fully insured the under- 
writers will pay the amount assessed against 
the goods, but whether the goods are insured 
or not the general average will make good to 
the.owner the value of the goods which were 
jettisoned less the assessment which the owner 
IS called upon to pay. It is safe to figure that 
all policies of insurance on goods cover and 
protect the merchant against assessments in 
general average. 

Thus a merchant can suffer considerable loss 
by reason of assessment levied against his 
goods in general average, although the goods 
arrive at their destination in a perfectly sound 
condition but such losses can be fully covered 
by insurance. 

A^i^^^^^ particular average (f. p. a.) -Under 
American conditions it is understood that no 
?l^^^ for partial loss, or damage will be al- 
lowed by the underwriters unless the loss or 
damage is caused by the vessel's having been 
burned, stranded, sunk or in collision. 

^i^i*^^m^i?^ ^T- a-) This means that no 
claim will be made on the underwriters for 
partial loss caused by sea perils unless the 
damage amounts to 5 per cent or more of the 
value of the shipment. 

Free of all average (f. a. a.) This, as the 
clause signifies, means f^e of all average. 

Collision or, ruling or running down clause 
(r. d. c.) This is a clause in which the un- 
derwriters take a burden of a proportion 
usually three-auarters, of the damage inflicted 
on other vessels by collision for which the in- 
sured vessel IS held to blame. Sometimes this 
clause IS extended to cover the whole of the 
assured s habilities arising out of the damage 
done to property by the collision of the in- 
sured vessel with another and the clause if 
chfuse "^ as the "four-fourths running down 

Incharmee clause This clause covers loss of 
or damage to hull and machinery through the 
negligence of master, mariners, engineers and 
pilots, or through explosions, bursting of boil- 
ers, breakage of shafts or througsh any latent 
defect m the machinery or hull, provided such 
loss or damage has not resulted from want 
of due diligence by the owners of the shin 
or by the manager

POPULATION OF THE UNITED STATES BY COLOR OR RACE. 

[From federal census, taken as of Jan. 1, 1920.] 



The rate of increase of the principal races 
during the decade 1910-1920 was: 

Total population, 14.9 per cent: white. 16 
per cent; negro. 6.5 per cent: Japanese, 53.9 
per cent. The Indian population decreased by 
8.6 per cent and the Chinese population by 
13.8 per cent. 

WHITE POPULATION. 
The rate of increase in the white population 
during the recent decade. 16 per cent, is con- 
siderably less than the corresponding rate for 
the period 1900-1910, which was 22.3 per 
cent. This decline is accounted for mainly by 
the great reduction in the volume of immigra- 
tion during the period of 'the world war. An 
estimate based on the excess of births over 
deaths and on the excess of immigration over 
emigration yields a total differing by only a 
small fraction of 1 per cent from the (total 
white population enumerated. 

NEGRO POPULATION. 

The rate of increase in the negro population, 
which is not pereepiibly affected by immigra- 
tion or emigration, is by far the lowes't on 
record. This element of the population has 
been growing at a rapidly diminishing rate 
during the last thirty years, its perc.ntage of 
increase having declined from 18 per cent be- 
tween 1890 and 1900 to 11.2 per cent during 
the following decade and to 6.5 per cent dur- 
ing the ten years ended Jan. 1. 1920. Such 
data as are available in regard to birth and 
death rates among the negroes indicate that 
the birth rate has decreased considerably since 
1900. while the death rate has not changed 
greatly. 

The following statement shows 'the negro 
population in 1920 and 1910, with the rales 
of increase during the past two decades, for 
the south, the north and -the west. The line 
between the north and south follows the 



northern boundaries of Delaware. Maryland. 
West Virginia. Kentucky. Arkansas and Okla- 
homa. The west is that part of the country 
lying west of the eastern limits of Montana. 
Wyoming. Colorado and New Mexico.

Total.. 10,463, 013 9,827,763 

The total numerical Increase in the negro 
population during the decade was 635,250. Of 
this increase 472,418, or nearly three-fourths, 
'took place in the north and wesit-, while only 
162,832, or about one-fourth, was reported for 
the south, despite the fact that about 85 per 
cgnt of the total negro population is still 
found in the south. 

Without exception the northern and western 
states which border on the south reported 
greater rates of increase in negro population 
than the average for the country, and in sev- 
eral of these-States the ra'tes were very large 
for example, in Illinois. 67.1 per cent; in Ohio, 
67.1 per cent, and in Penns.vlvania, 46.7 per 
cent. The la^t mentioned state has a larger 
negro population than either Maryland or 
Kentucky. The greatest rate of g"owth in 
negro population reported by any state having 
more than 10.000 negro inhabitants appears 
for Michigan. 251 per cent, the negro popular 
tion of this state having increased from 17,115 
in 1910 to 60,082 in 1920. 

INDIAN POPULATION. 

The decrease in 'the Indian population, as 
enumerated, is probably to be accounted for 
in part by the enumeration as Indians in 1910. 
and as whites in 1920. of certain persons hav- 
ing only slight traces of Indian blood. In 
1910 a special effort was made to secure a 



92 



ALMANAC AND YEAR-BOOK FOR 1923. 



complete enumeration of all persons having 
any perceptible amount of Indian blood, for 
the purpose of preparing- a special report 
showing' 'tribal relations, purity of Indian 
blood, etc.; and it is probable that for this 
reason a considerable number of persons who 
would ordinarily have been reported as whites 
were enumerated as Indians in 1910. This 
assumption is borne out by a comparison of 
the totals shown for the Indian population at 
the last four censuses the only ones at which 
a complete enumeration of the Indian popula- 



tion has been attemp'ted. These are: 1920. 
242.959: 1910. 265.683: 1900, 237.196: 1890, 
248,253. Of the total decrease in the In- 
dian population between 1910 and 1920. 
amounting to 22,724. by far the greater part. 
18.876. took place in Oklahoma alone. The 
only pronounced increase was reported for 
North Carolina from 7.851 to 11,824. The 
only other states which had, in 1920, 1,000 or 
more Indian inhabitants and which reported 
increases in Indian population were Louisiana. 
Texas, Montana, Arizona and California.

GROWTH OF URBAN POPQLATION. 



The figures given in the above table for 
1930. as compared with corresponding- figures 
for 1910. show that the trend of population 
from the country to the city increased stead- 
ily during the decade and that, for the first 
time in the country 'iS history, more than half 
the entire population was living in urban ter- 
ritory as defined by the census bureau, that 
is. residing in cit'es and other incorporated 
places of 2.500 inhabitants or more, including 
towns of that size in three New England 
states, namely. Massachusetts, New Hampshire 
and Rhode Island, as later explained. On this 
basis, therefore, it appears that of the 105.- 
708,711 persons in the United States in 1920. 
there were 54,318,033, or 51.4 per cent, living 
in urban territory and 51,390.739. or 48.6 per 
cent, living in rurail territory. The correspond- 
ing percentag-es for 1910 were 45.8 aJid 54.2, 
respectively, showing a gain of 6.6 per cent 
in the proportion for the population living 
in urban territory. The proportion of the 
population living in urban territory was larger 
in 1920 than in 1910 for all but three states 
Colorado, Montana and Wyoming the largest 
changes in the proportion during the decade 
being for Michigan an increase from 47.2 to 
61.1 per cent and for Maryland an increase 
from 50.8 to 60 per cent. Texas, Indiana, 
Ohio. Florida and Oklahoma also showed con- 
siderable gains in the proportion of the popu- 
lation living in urban territory as compared 
with 1910. The loss since 1910 in the propor- 
tion of the population living in urban territory 



in Colorado. Montana and Wyoming was due 
to the fact that in each state by far the larger 
part of the total increase in the population 
was in the population living in rural territory, 
namely. 65.6 per cent for Colorado, 77.7 per 
cent for Montana, and 70.8 per cent for 
Wyoming. 

In Massachusetts. Rhode Island and New 
Hampshire (except in two caes) it is not 
the practice, as in the other states, to have 
municipal incorporations, such as villages, 
within the limits of the town, and no town 
becomes a city until its population is much 
in excess of 3,500. For this reason, it has 
been necessary, as above stated, to include in 
the urban territory of these states not only 
the population of cities but that ot all towns 
having' over 2.500 inhabitants. The "urban 
area" in each of these three states includes, 
therefore, some population which in other 
states would be classed as "rural." but it is 
not thought that the proportion of urban 
population in either state is greatly increased 
thereby. At the census of 1910 this rule as 
to towns applied to all the New England 
states, but for the census of 1930 the census 
bureau decided to limit the "urban area" 
in three of the New England states Connect- 
icut, Maine and Vermont to cities and other 
incorporated places of 3,500 inhabitant or 
more, the same as for other states, and so 
the figures for these states in 1910 were cor' 
rected accordingly.

METROPOLITAN DISTRICTS (1920). 
The federal census bureau defines a metro- 
politan district as consisting of the city proper 
together with the urban portion of the ter- 
ritory Ij'ing within ten miles of the city limits. 
The following table shows the metropolitan 
districts of cities having a population of 200,-

Cities and Adjacent Territory- 
In addition to the population of the metro- 
politan districts themselves the census returns 
for 1920 show the population residing in ter- 
ritory adjacent to the central cities but not 
included in the metropolitan districts that is, 
in minor divisions which lie wholly or in 
greater part within ten miles of the boundaries 
of the central cities but in which the density 
of the population was not sufficient to justify 
treating them as strictly urban.

MEDIAN LINES. 




Pmition of the v. 

Amca. Center or Population. 
ANo Median Lines 



The geographic distribution of the popula- 
tion is also indicated by the location of median 
lines. A parallel of latitude is determined 
which evenly divides the population so that 
the population north of that parallel is the 
same as that south. Similarly, a meridian 
of longitude is determined which divides the 
population evenly as between east and west. 
In calculating these median lines it is neces- 
sary, in the case of the square degrees of 
latitude and longitude which are traversed by 
the lines themselves, to assume that the popu- 
lation is evenly distributed through these 
square degrees or to make an estimated adjus^t- 
ment where this is obviously not the case. 

It may be observed that while each median 
line exactly bisects the population as a whole 
i$t '^^e^n^Jl-^^'PP'''''^"!'^ bisect the

Includes foreign-born whose citizenship was 
not reported. 

Note At the census of 1920 a woman mar- 
ried to a native or naturalized citizen of the 
United States was returned as a citizen, even 
though herself foreign-born; and a native-born 
woman married to an alien or to a foreign- 
bom man who had taken out his first naturali- 



34.1 52.0 1.4 40.0 

zation papers only was returned as an alien. 
But the number of aliens here considered in- 
cludes only those who are of foreign birth. 
An unmarried woman born in the United States 
is, of course, a citizen by birth: and for an 
unmarried foreign-born woman the process of 
naturalization is the same as for a man.

DWELLINGS AND FA3iILIES IN THE UNITED STATES (1930). 



According- to the census usag-e the term 
"famil5'" signifies a group of persons, whether 
related by blood or not. who live tog-ether as 
one household, usually sharing- the same table. 
One person living- alone is counted as a family, 
and, on the other hand, the occupants of a 
hotel or institution, however numerous, are 
also treated as forming- a sing-le family. Thus 
the census family in some cases differs greatly 
from the natural family, but the averages 
afford a fairly accurate index of the extent to 
which the size of families ha been decreasing 
from census to census. 

The term^ "dwelling" as here used signifies 
any bviilding or structure in which one or 
more persons regularly sleep. It may not nec- 
essarily be a house in the usual sense of the 
word. A boat, a tent, a freight car, or a room 
in a warehouse, if it serves as a i*egular sleep- 
ing place for one or more persons, is treated 
as a dwelling. On the other hand, an entire

The total number of negroes reported as 
born in the south (that part of the country 
lying south of the southern boundaries of 
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana^ Illi- 
nois, Missouri and Kansas) was 9,600,943. Of 
these, 7,751,361, or 80.7 per cent, were living- 
in their native states in 1920; 1,068,788. or 
11.1 per cent, were living in otber southern 
states; and 780,794, or 8.1 per cent, were 
living in the north or west. The total number 
of negroes reported as born in the north or 
west was 741,791, of whom 537,131, or 73.4 
per oent, were living in their native states in 
19^0; 157,437. or 31.3 per cent, were living- 
in other northern or western states; and 47,- 
223, or 6.4 per cent, were living in the 
.south. Thus the proportion of southern-born 
negroes who migrated to this north or west, 
8.1 per cent, was only about one-fourth larger 
than the proportion of the negroes who were 
born in the north or west and migrated to the 
south. 6.4 per cent. 

The number of negroes born in the south 
and living in the north or west less the num- 
ber born in the north or west and living in 
the south was 733,571. These may be termed 
the survivors of the net migration of negroes 



from the south to' tTie north and -west. The 
number of southern-born, negroes living in 
the north and west increased from 440,534 
in 1910 to 780,794 in 1920, forming 40.9 
per cent of the total negro population of the 
north and west in the earlier year and 60.3 
per cent in the later. 

Althongh migration to the north and west 
has not taken place among- the far southern 
negroes to the same extent, i-elatively to their 
total numbers, aa among the neg'roes in the 
northern part of tha south, there was never- 
theless a pronounced increase in such migra- 
tion from the far south in the decade 1910- 
1930. For example: The negroes who were 
born in South CaroUna a,nd had migrated from, 
that state to Pennsylvania increased from 
2,113 in 1910 to 11,624 in 1920; those from 
Georgia to Pennsylvania increased from 1.578 
to 16,196: those from Florida to Pennsylvania, 
from 393 to 5,370: those from Alabama to 
Ohio, from 781 to 17,588; those from Missis- 
sippi to Illinois, fi-om 4,613 to 19,485; those 
from Louisiana to Illinois. iom 1,609 to 8.- 
078; and those from Texas to Missouri, from 
1.907 to 4344.

DANGERS IN PUBLIC BATHING PLACES. 



Through a questionnaire sent out by the 
American Journal of Public Health to 2.000 
physicians throughout the country, some in- 
teresting information was obtained as to the 
extent and prevalence of diseases that may 
be conveyed by means of public bathing 
places. The following Questions were sub- 
mitted : 

1. Do you consider public bathing places an 
important factor in transmitting disease? 

2. If so, what diseases? 

3. Describe circumstances of particular cases 
of diseases which you feel certain were con- 
tracted at a bathing place. 

4. In relation to transmission of diseases, 
which do you consider more important, bath- 
ing suits, towels or quality of bathing "water? 

5. In swimming pools, which do you con- 
sider the greatest danger, transmission of 
diseases or accidents? 

6. What is your opinion regarding impor- 
tance of the following diseases in relation to 
sanitation of bathing beaches: Typhoid fever, 
gonococcus infection. syphilis, ringworm, 
dysentery, colds, pink eye and boils? 

Of the .350 replies received to question one. 
70 per cent believed bathing places are im- 
portant factors; 25 per cent thought they 
were not and 4 per cent were in doubt 
and expressed no opinion. 

Replies to questions two and three dis- 
closed that the writers considered infections 
of eye, ear, nose, throat, skin, venereal, gas- 
" tro-intestinal and some miscellaneous dis- 
eases as important in relation to transmission 



of disease by bathing places. A very large 
number of physicians answering the questions 
submitted were agreed in this view. Seven 
physicians reported epidemics of conjunc- 
tivitis: six others, epidemics of skin diseases; 
two. epidemics of middle ear Infection; two. 
epidemics of tonsillitis and pharyngitis; one. 
an epidemic of nasal sinus and one member 
of the committee reported an epidemic of 
typhoid fever in a boys' camp. 

it is to be noted, however, in these answers 
to questions two and three that very few 
fatal cases of any of the diseases have been 
attribiited to bathing place infection outside 
of typhoid fever. One physician reported a 
fatal case of mastoid infection and four 
others reported fatal cases of meningitis fol- 
lowing infections of ear and nose. 

In replying to question four, 500 physi- 
cians expressed an opinion. Of these, 38 per 
cent considered the quality of water most 
important; 31.2 per cent considered sanitation 
of suits and towels of the greatest importance 
and 30.8 per cent gave equal weight to each. 

In reply to question five. 439 opinions were 
given. Sixty-five per cent considered danger 
of infection the most important; 26 per cent 
drownings and accidents, and 9 per cent 
held that both were equally important. 

In reply to question six, considerably more 
than one-half the physicians answering stated 
that they believed bathing places were im- 
portant in connection with the transmission 
of the diseases named in the question.

THE EUGENE 

Eugene V. Debs, five times socialist candi- 
date for the presidency of the United Slates, 
was arrested in Cleveland, O.. June 20. 1918. 
on a federal warrant in connection with Debs' 
speech at the socialist state convention in Can- 
ton. O., on June 16. He was brought to trial 
and on Sept. 12 was found g-uilty by a federal 
jury. Of the orig-inal ten counts of the indict- 
ment only four remained when the jury retired 
to consider the evidence. He was found guilty 
of attempting- to incite insubordination, disloy- 
alty, etc.. in the military and naval forces; at- 
tempting to obstruct recruiting and uttering 
language tending to incite, provoke and en- 
courage resistance to the United States, and 
to promote the cause of the enemy. The 
count on which he was adjudged innocent 
charged that he opposed the cause of the 
United States. 

On Sept. 14 Debs was sentenced to ten years 
in the Moundsville (W. Va.) penitentiary on 
each of three counts of the indictment by 
Federal Judge D. C. Westenhaver. The sen- 
tences were to run concurrently. Motion for a 
new trial was overruled and an exception on 
behalf of the defendant was allowed. A mo- 
tion for arrest of the sentence -was also over- 
ruled. The court admitted Debs to $10,000 
bail, with permission to leave the nc-thern 
federal district of Ohio only to go to and 
remain at his home. 

The case was carried to the United Stnts 
Supreme court, which on March 10, 1919. 
sustained the con-viction and sentence by the 



V. DEBS CASE. 

lower court. Ihe constitutionality of the 
espionage act itself was not passed upon, but 
the members of the court were unanimous in 
holding the enlistment s-^ction vnlid and in 
declaring that the act did not interfere with 
the right of free speech. 

Mr. Debs asked for a rehearing by the Su- 
preme court on March 27. but his petition wag 
d-nied March 31. Debs began serving his sen- 
t'?nce in the W'>st Virginia penitentiary at 
Moundsville April 13, 1919. He was later 
transferred to .the penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga. 

In 1920. while still in prison, he was again 
made the candidate of the socialist party for 
president of the United States and received 
nearly 900,000 votes. Early in 1921 his case was 
taken up by a special commission investigat- 
ing all convictions under the espionage act and 
the recommendation was made to the depart- 
ment of justice that Debs' sentence be com- 
muted on Feb. 12. The recom-rendation waa 
favorably indorsed by the depart-nent, but 
President Wilson on Jan. 31 refused to com- 
mute the sentence on the ground that Debs 
had sought to handicap the selective service 
act and that the granting of clemency in this 
ease might ind^^oe s'milar contempt for law in 
the event of another war. 

On recommendation of Attorney-General 
Daugherty the sentence was commuted by 
President Harding as "a gracious act oi 
mercy." and Debs was released from the 
penitentiary Dec. 25, 1921.
