Oie reason why the Bell Telephone, company is gradually instajling'automatic switchboards to replace girl operators is thai:", they anticipate increasing difficulty in obtaining enough operators 'of the intelligence such ' work requires. In other words, their demand for competent operators will run ahead of Jtlie increase in population. , T.he last ?:w years has shown an creased general demand for women workers, thus setting up irribre competition for the kind of girls capable of being good operators. 'X Moreover, there is : grave fear that of all girls obliged to enter employmcnts. those too dull-witted to be good operators will increase more rapidly than the bright ones. The following figures will give an idea of the situation: In .1920 the Bell system employed approximately' 125,009 opera tors and by 1930, on a manual basis, at least 200,000 operators would; be needed. The problem varies in different cities, but. in one of the largest, it is estimated that while workers of the group from which operators are" recruited will increase 13 per cent in the. ten-year, period, requirements for telephone op erators would increase 65 per cent; - ' .

Weird tales ot burled treasures, of Inter national conspiracies Involving for mer diplomats, of clandestine , ro--mance In high society and ot a vast subterranean labyrinth leading to a bootleggers' rendezvousheld Wash ington breathless for three days last-tall following the discovery of n elaborate maze of underground passageways In the heart of the bet ter residence section of the city. All sorts; of wild stories were started s to the origin and use of the tunnel. - '.' . : .. Then the' bubble of speculation, which had ' clothed them with the romance of intrigue and mystery, was burst by, an announcement by Dr. Harrison Grey Dyar, custodian of lepldoptera In the National Mu seum, that he had built .the tun nels by way of getting exercise. 'Now, -however, folks ore ' won dering, whether perhaps there was not something to the "burled treas ure", story after all. For Dr. Dyar appears as pur chaser, for a price of $2,300,000 ot one of the largest and most elaborate apartment properties in the capital. . Anyway, ell admit that as a "digger" Dr. Dyar seems to have got somewhere.' , " ; I- '. . , A celebration of first rank, de signed to give a rebirth to American Ideals and new stimulus to American achievements is proposed for Wash ington in 1932. The occasion would be the two hundredth -anniversary' of the birth of George Washington. Tentative pluns for a fitting na tional celebration of Washington's ' bi-centennlal already ihave been dis cussed -by President Coolidge with ' the congressional members of a commission which will have the ar rangements In charge. 'Historical and patriotic organ!-; cations, as well as leader in Amer ican" progress In art, science, In . dustry and finance, have been given ' places on the body which will plan ; the'celehration. - v.: - ''- General Isaac Sherman of Toledo .0., who at 90 is the oldest member of "Congress, sang his "swan song" to the House a few days ago In a 'speech contrasting the life of a congressman In Washington today and S3 year ago today., - As an Index ot the comparative .cost of government today and then, when General Grant was just start ing tils second term. -Sherwood said: "I remember the appropriation for salaries, lerk hire and upkeep ot the White ;House that year was $4200.: -Tills year we gave, our president the tidy sum. of $500,000.
