By EDWARD E. BRITTON. (By Special Leased Wire.)' Washington, July 16. The surface Indications are that North Carolina will get an additional member of the House of Representatives in the reappoint ment which it now seems assured the House will make, this based on the population figurts of the 1921) census. Jtepresentative Isaac Seigel, of New York, chairman of the House census committee, makes a statement that an increase in tho Ilouse membership to 460, this an addition of 25 to the pres ent flifmlifcr-Mn ' th Hotts, probably will be ti r.i i,mk n.' .1 by the llouse census -! in i 1 1 - "Inn it reports out the reapportionment bill. Representa tive S. M. Brinson of the Third North Carolina distriee, in discussing the statement today of representative ; 8iegel, said that while the majority rep resentation of the committee might be to increase the membership to 460 that there would also be a minority representative to hold to the present number of members; 435. Whether the number decided upon is 435 or 460 in either case there will be an additional member for North Carolina. There are three propositions, before the House census committee; One to held to the present membership of 4.15; one to increase the membership to 460; one to increase it to 4S3. This last would five North Carolina two mem bers but there stems to be no likeli hood that this membership of 4S3 has win President Hardine has stated that he favors a membership of 46(1, but there is a feeling among inc members of the House to make no in crease, nnd there will be a man's size fight on! the floo of the House for 433. Congressman Brinson, the rank ing Democrat on the House census com mittee, advocates the 43S membership figure. If the 460 advocates win, Mis souri and Maine will eaci loss a mem ber an while the Republicani are showing) little concern ss to the loss of a member in Maine, there is a feel ing that the man who loses out in the necessary redistrlcting in Missouri will be taken care of in the way of a Fed eral job. Hence, there Is being heard no opposition from Missouri as to 460 as the figures. If the present congress makes the reapportionment either on the basis of 435 or 460 then it is figured out hero that tho extra session of the North Carolina General Assembly called by .vernor Morrison for December frth m:iv tike up the matter of making a liNliatrirting of the State so as to hate rhrrrn CVngreseional districts in- place of the present number of ten. If there is not this redisricting at the extra session then the expectation is that the General Assembly will enact the neces enry legislation so as to provide for the election of a Congressman-at-large at the next election. If there is a Con-gressman-nt large there are at present understood to be three menioned for tho pusition: General Julian S. Can, who has stated he would be candidate; speaker of the House of Bepresenta Waltcr Murphy, of Salisbury, former speaker of the House of Rcpresenatives of North Carolina; 8am L. Rogers, un til direction of the census, at one time .member, of, the Jvartb. Crol!a corpo ration commission. I is time to stop taking people fot The Republicans are so hungry af ter Federal jobs that they are even throwing out Democrats who are eot ton agents in order to gie their jobs to Eepublicans. An instance of this is right at hand in the appointment of L. 8. Bell, a Bepubllean, as eotton etatistican agent for Sampson County n plaee of John M. Weeks, a Democrat, who has been forced out of the po sition. Representative Brinson had his attention called to the matter of the position of M . Weeks being token away from him, and wroto to director 8teu art of the eensus bureau, the eueeea or ef Sam L. Rogers, about the matter. In bit reply, Director Btenart told of th appojntmenj of Mr. Bell as County eotton statistician for Sampson Countv, and of Mr. Weeks, he say.: "His ser rices were reported to me as being of a very satisfactory nature," and quot ing further from hit letter, which shows that it was partisan politics which en tered into the dropping of Mr. Week, there Is thin; "I am very sorry it was not practicable to retain Mr. Weeks in his "position."

RALEIGH, N. ii BASIS IN HEALTH Revolutionary Administrative Methods Worked Out By Dr. Rankin TEST OF EFFICIENCY FOR HEALTH WORKERS State Appropriations To Coun - ty Health Work Will Be Made Strictly On Basis of Work Performed As Shown By Standardized Values; Counties Control Work Standardized costs for every item of service performed by public health of ficers and nurses, and service rendered instead of office held as a basis for the distribution of State appropriations, by far the most revolutionary step in pub- lie health administration yet under taken in America, was announced by Dr. W. 8. Rankin, head of the State Department of Health yesterday after a two-dap conference with a score of county health officers. The. pUn is effective as of July 1. A carefully prepared standard ef costi for each of the 60 Hems of work that come within the duties of officers and nurses will be applied to reports of these officers and nurses monthly, and upon that standard, applied to the report, appropriation of State money will be made to the counties. Cnder the old plan, lump appropriations were made to the several counties regard less of the amount of work that was performed by the officers and nurses, Counties Will Control. Under the plan, the county will have absolute control of the officers and nurses, and through the reports, county authorities will be able to judge the efficiency of the men and women em ployed in health work. A county health officer may spend P60O in one month, and for that expenditure show a work-value of $500, or he may spend that much money and show a work value of only $500. The county authori ties will be able to judge accurately whether they are getting their money's worth, and the State will pay only for work performed. Dr. Rankin has been at work on the plan for nearly two years. Six weeks ago he reduced the plan ta a definite basis, and submitted his estimate of Coat values to a committee of health officers. On Thursday be called the whole time health officers of the State here for a conference, submitted the plan to them and withdrew. After two days of discussion, they approved the plan, with minor changes, and asked that it be adopted and put into effect. Six months will be given to it on a trial basis, and after that Dr. Rankin expects it to be established permanent Two things will be done by the plan that will relieve the State Board -of Health from a burden of administrative detail, Dr. Rankin thinks. It will pro vide an accurate test of the efficiency of the local health tfffleer, and provide an equitable basis for the distribution of the SUte's appTopTUttirn for county health work. The counties will know what their health offisers are doing, and the State will fj only for what has been done. There will be no more lurilp appropriations, with an unsatis factory cheek on the results of the ex penditure 'of the money. Mike Report Monthly. Forms will be sent out to each comity officer, upon which will be printed tho standard value of each item of work. The officer will report the number of each item performed during the month, and the total value of the health work for that month will be a matter of multiplication. The report will be made to the State Board and the State's pro portion of the, total will be forwarded to the county treasury instead of the annual appropriation heretofore made. The State Board of Health will no longer exercise supervisory powers ove the selection of county health officers. The State will merely pay its propor tion for the work that has been done. If leas work is done then should be done, it will be within the duties of the county authorities to prod the health officer to more general attention to work. County authorities will be able to determine what their health officer is worth to them, and whether they are getting aa much as they are paying fdr. The plan does not become effective wholly in all eountiee nntil tha expira tion of existing contracts between the Slate and counties employing thole time health officers. These contracts expire January 1 and will be renewed then under the new plan of co-operation The State Board has sa extra appropri ation og $123 per month that will be available for these contract counties immediately it they come under the plan, and it is expected that they will take advantage of that surplus appro priation. The standard of root values worked out by the health officers ta cover all work is as follows: Caaaseakabte Dteeaoe Control viait L Contagions diseases: (a)shh 1.

Orders to this effect have been issued to the district engineers by State Hieh way Engineer Charles M. I'pham. The nine district men have been asked to submit to the chief their notions of what the signposts ought to luok like, and from among tho nine, one design will bo acloctcd and mado standard for the whole State. Anywhero thn trav eler sees one of the signs, he will know that it is accurate and official. With, the constantly developing stream of automobilo travel in North Carolina, the sign posts wiH be of in valuable help to tho people of the fctate. No concerted effort has ever been made to properly mark roods, although sonic work in this direction has been made by counties. largely it has been left to the whim of the local advertiser and as often as not nign posts get the trav eler hopelessly lost. Mile posts will be added to tho roads as permanent construction progresses The sign posts aro for immediate use, and later the roads will be marked with a standard design of stone markers to give the mileage. Mr. Uplinm hopes to have the placing of sign posts well under way in the State before the first or September. Designs by engineers are to be submitted immediately, and after that they will be made in quan tity lots. GREENSBORO DOCTOR GETS TERM ON ROADS Greensboro, July 16. John William Taylor, prominent optometrist of this city, was found guilty and sentenced to serve for 12 months on the Guilford county roads by Judge D. H. Collins in city court here toduy, on a charge of an assault on a female. The specific charge under which the Doctor was brought to trial was fur his alleged mistreatment of his wife and 20 year-old daughter at their home on the night of July 3. The evidence irstrodwsd this mersisg teied ta that the Seemed man had spanked his daughter and then beat his ife with his fist. Witnesses declared that he struck his wife such blows that large bruises resulted. The evidence showed that on the night of July S Dr. Tsylor had cor rected his daughter for keeping com pany with a young man of whom he disapproved and later bad taken her aeross his knee and spanked her. Mrs. Taylor remonstrated with him for that act aad the doctor then proceeded to give her a sound mauling with his fist, according to Mrs. Taylor, who took the stead against her husband.

M Onlv Disturbina Factor In Otherwise Peaceful Atmos phere at Camp Glenn By JONATHAN WORTH DANIELS. (Staff Correspondent.) Camp Glenn, July 16. Beginning with a heavy disagreeable rain in the morn' ing and ending iu a dance for the men of the encampment at the Atlantis hotel at night Friday spent itself through patches of sunshine and rain, and the guardsmen moved on with their pre scribed training, stopping only when the ruin was particularly heavy early in the morning. A great deal of work remain to bo done and the training at first rather hard is increasing in its intensity. To the men coming so recently from shop and sehod the work has been to a degreo difficult but the whole regiment has stood the drills and practices well and the men growing used to he heavy routine work and the early blowing notes of reveille are finding a joy in the intensive training and the increas ing physical fitness of tluir bodies. Camp tileiin is not a quiet restful va cation ramp but a pl:ne of training whero )iere is mueli to be taught and to be learned during the few swiftly fly ing days that there are in which to do it. Tholife is hard but healthy and the sun that beats down mercilessly during the grtielling hours of drill pours balmily, too, on the afternoon boating, swimming and fishing, expeditions. Ueto is much work, enough play and sleep rnd a wonderful development of btwlies that will return to the towns of the State a better citizenry for the time that Ikis been spent here. Company D, machine gun company of Durham, brought down to the en campment the mules that are to be distributed among the machine gun com panies and tha Howitzer company. Among the animals of burden is a cer tain mulo of diaagroeable temperament ho called after his disposition is named T.N'.T. Already he has removed several who with tho best of motives attempted to feed him. All companies except Company M, of Wilson, and the Howitzer, have drawn their mules and the fateful T.N.T. remains for one of these. Both companies are anxious to te as far sway from this particular mule as ponnible when they 'm their animals back home. The race i?Tir the strong. The Wilson company seems to bo lending in the race to eschew the rfialieious T.N'.T. and the odds are that the lfowitr.er company will carry the undesirable mule back to Gastonia with them. Last night at the Atlantic hotel a de lightful dance was given to the officers and men by the officers of the en--:!, nient. A part of the regimental band played and the old hotel lighted as in former. days seemed to live agi under the spell of the Ealeigh musicisni' melo dies.

Through mercv recommended by a jury of menVrs. Eva Ca-therine Kaber today escaped the electric chair, though found guilty of first degree murder fcr plotting the assassination of her husband, Daniel Jr Kaber. It was tha hope thnt mercy would be extended by those of tho opposite aex which induced her counsel to exclude women jurors on tho grouud that they are ''innrs cold blooded and merciless than men." Attempt wns made to in validate, panels of tentative jurors be cause there were women on theui, and when women were tentatively aeateil on tha jury, they were dismissed by the defense on peremptory challenge. As a result of the recommendation for mercy,. Mrs. Kalwr was oenleml to life imprisonment in tho Ohio Re formatory for Women at "Warvsville by Judge Maurice F.ernon. Hal the jury not recommended mercy, the court would have been compelled to sentence Mrs, Kaln'r to die in the eluctric chair. First Chapter of Can. The prison term for Mrs. Kaber was the first final result of the State's ef fort to bring to justice those responsible for the murder of the Lnkevtood pub lisher, as he lav an invalid in his home on the night of July 1H, 1!US. There remain five others to bo tried on first degreo murder charges tut connection with the crime. Two of these aro Mrs. Mary Biivkel, mother, and Mis Murian McArdle. daughter of Mrs. Kaber. Miss MeArdle was with her moher, who was lying in t semi conscious state in her cell in the county jail when news of the verdict was brought to them Uy Attorney Fran na W. 1'oulson, Mrs. Saber's personal counsel. Tha mother, & years of age, was at Sterling House, a detention home for women. Others Fare Charge The others charged with the crime are Mrs. f.rmime Culnvito, midwife nurse, who is alleged a have been a go between for Mrs. Kaber and Balva tor Csla find Vittorio I'isselli. who are alleged ta have actually killed Mr. Kaber. Mrs. Kaber showed no signs of inter est in the verdict or the sentence im posed by the court, if. in fact, she actu ally knew what was happening, for she ns apparently oblivious to all things. Hhe morely nodded her head when pressed for answers as to whether she understood. She was as limp as a life leas person anil had to be carried to and from the court room. ' Her own fate sealed, what little in terest lt. Kuber did show was said to bo in the future of her daughter Marian, whom County I'roaccutor Ed ward C. Btantou says ho will ask lie gim tho death penalty. Bait for Mis McArdle was refused today by Judg' Demon on the ground that in the l ght of testimony in Mrs. Kaber's rase. which tended to implicate her also in the crime, he could not grant her tem porary freedom. Marian is alleged to have furthered her mother's murder designs and to have played the pian to drown noise while the alleged assas sins wero shown their victim by Mrs. Kaber. Woman 8emi-Coaacioas Mrs. Kaber's semi conscious state continued after she returned to her cell and the jail physician said she a-pparently -did- not- know when ipfp tions were asked bet. If said he did not believe there was' any paralysjs'of the artieulatory organs, though Mrv Kaber uttered nothing audible, or even attempted to do so. Because of her physical condition, sbx will not be taken to prison for ten days or more, it was said, in order to permit her tj regain her strength. The jail physician said ho thought Mrs. Kaber's condition is due to overstrain during the trial. Verdict A "Jest One." Both counsel for defense and state said they were well pleased with the verdict. "It is a juit verdict,' At torney William 9.

"The verdict is a just one," State's attorneys also told the jury. Defense counsel announced there will be no appeal. The jury considered the casefor four hours before voting a verdict which is understood to have been done on the third ballot. It is ssid to be the first time in the criminal court history of Cuyahoga county that a mother, daugh ter and grand mother were involved in one murder trial; that a women was, found guilty of first degree murder; that sentence wss imposed ta a de fendant who did not stand . receive it: that women were barred from the- jury on the ground that they are less merciful than men; and that a verdict was delayed two hours because the de feadsnt was unable to be brought into court.

Officials,, however, made no secret of their con tinued confidence that Japan eventual ly would join Great Britain, Franee, Italy and China in aeeepMng full partic ipation in the dieaussions. It was emphasised in official circlet that no hasty derision was soujht and that there was no desire here to iave tho Tokio government seept unre servedly until it had satisfied itself c! the exact purpose and good faith if tho Vnited States in pr iposing the con ference. The general expectation was that a delay of several days would ensue before the next important de velopment Physical Siffltalties. Meantime, those who are to be in rharge of tho conference began to turn their attention to some. of the physical difftitulties involved in providing su't able quarters here for so important a gathering. No meeting place hat yet beea aeleeted, although the tnggesti i has been mado that tha I'sn-A.. eriean Building probubly would provide beat facilities available in the National Capital. A question of far greater moment arises from the necessity of providing slso living accoBimoditions and office space for tha various attensiag com missions. It is thought not unlikely that several hotels and apartment houses may have to bo taken ever to accom modate the visitors. Large Delegation. It would not occasion surprise here if Great Britain, for instance, sent a delegation of experts and attaches' ap prooehing that which aha maintained, in Fans during the peace conference. Such a delegation would require a fair sired hotel for its living accom modations as well aa a considerable amount of office space. Japan is another nation whose com mission is expected to be a large ona because of the many translators which always sro sttacled to Japantse diplo matic missions. In addition to the representative! nf the six powers who will sit at the coun cil tnblo it is not doubted that many smaller countries, especially the strug gling new nations who are seeking recognition snd concessions, will send commissions here in the hope of gain ing the cars of the negotiators. Shonld the premiers of some of the In vited powers come here as members ef the conference, as has been indicated in press dispatches, it is suggested that they be provided private residencee at guests of the government. Thit feature is one which will occupy the active attention of executive officiatl because ' of the ' -leconimendationj that would have to be made to Congress for ah ap propriation to defray the expenses ef such entertainment.
