IOuD DOLLAR ERAVIAM1. The indg figures deal not only with tiA dollar in general. but with specific 40s expended for definite necessities. Thus, from the Labor tma~vtn*9t report, it is possible to wgh 0ot only the dollar in genleral but the specific dollar like the foed dollar, the clothing dollar and the housing dollar. When these specific dollars are weighed, the general dol Rat covering all commodities goes OR the sOes tor a tryout.

A ~r age the food dollar was &a pre shadow of- its prewar self. being worth only fortyveight oent. During his\ twelve mooths of oonvalescence the food dollar thus has gained 43 per cent on Its weight a year ag, and has the least of any dollar to gale be fOr6 getting back to 1*14 trim. Al this mans to Washington residents that at the .0ne.r grocery or mea shop forty-eight cents now will bay what it took sixty-eight cents to purchase a yaw age. The average Washington family spends 3W.2 per cent of* its total incomne for foo4 so'that the 42 per coot in crease In tba purchasing power of the food dollar means a monthly savings of m111loss. Shese millions thus can be turned into other channe to pur chase clothing, coal,. luxuries, and amusemiets. CLORVING IN RMAC. Next to the food ddllar the elothing dbtlar has been most successful In at taching importance to itself, having registered a gain of 81 per cent in the past year. It Is worth 46 cents as com pared with his pre-war self. This doesn't sound as if it were yet very weighty. But the Labor Department reports show that a year ago the clothing dollar was the sickest of all the dollars with the exception of one. In June. 1920, it was worth only 35 bents as compared with pro-war value. Officials believe that in a few montifs more the clothing dollar will outstrip many of Its fellows. The furniture dollar, which, a year age sunk to the lowest weight of all the dollars in comparison with 1914. has increased In purchasing power just 21 per cent during the year. In June, 19M, the furniture dollar was worth but 3S cents. 2 coats less than the clothing dollar. Now the bill that Is handed across the counter for a straw hat is worth do ,ests.

In the past year the housing. dollar has lost 10 per cent of his weight a yew ago. while the food dollar gained 42 per oent. the clothing dollar 31 per oent, and the furniture dollar 31 per eat.

Prom that date to the present time the Treasury has continued to its dollar bright eye on the worklig of the Pubile Health Service. To many people the service I be lieved to be a "bunch of Aoctors who do research work and get out a lWt of bulletins telling people not to be indisreet." The average traveler will recall that "they pdate their posters and bulletin* in railroad stations and cr and tell you to write the Treas ury Department for further informa tion." Not many months ago these bulletins were just so many more millions of spots for the ubiquitoes signature of William 0. MoAdee, ad vertiser de luxe. Rut this contact with the general public is but one feeble perateh of 41- wnrk conducted by the Public Health Service. Briefly Its jurisdie tion over the country's health ex tends from the purifestlet of polluted oysters to the control of the ,com mon brand of measley measies. During 13920 this organization of almost 16.000 workers -distributed al most 6.000,00 bulletins and pamph lets aimed at the Improvement of the national lUalth. One small iteg on its progr&* during that period was the exam.nation of more than 1,000.000 applIeante for War Risk In suranee.

The Public Health Service Is under the'direct Pupervisien of the Surgeod General. whose acts are subject to the opprwoal of the Secretary of the Treasury. The Surgein General ad ministers the affairs of the bureau. with the aid of an executive officer. through seven administrative dlvi. vions-Marine Hospitals and Relief. Domestic Quarantine. Foreign and Insular Quarantine. Personnel and Accounts. Sanitary Reports and Sta Listies, Setentile Research and Ve oral Diseases. In 1919. the Public Health Servioe was authorized to furnish additional hospital facilities to patients of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. At that time the service operated hoe pitals with a capacity of approxi mately 1.500 beds. At the present time the Psrvie had in operatten six tyeae hospitals with a bed eapacity f approximately I.ee0 beds, and will. In the near future, open additional hospitals with A capacity of approxi ately 3.000 beds. In these hospitals the service is now oaring for over 16.000 patients. In all, the Public Realth Service has op to May, 1931. ared for in hospitals approximately 200.000 patients of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, in additioni to its ather beneficiaries.
