Shrewd Russians Buying Petrograd
Real Estate In Anticipation
of Removal.
Petrograd, Russia.—Hope that some
day the. capital of Russia will be
transferred back to Petrograd Is buoy-
ing up the spirits of many residents
of this ghostlike city that Peter the
Great built to serve as the center ol
Russia’s power. Petrogradites base
their hopes that this will occur on the
fact that Petrograd was built for gov-
ernment purposes and is far more
fitted to house government offices
than overcrowded Moscow.
If the time does come that the Bol-
shevist officials lose their fear of at-
tack from outside, Petrograd resi-
dents say, the government inevitably
must return to the city that offers it
comfortable quarters and immediate
proximity, by land and sea, to western
Europe. .
Shrewd citizens are now buying Pe-
trograd property and holding it
against the day when the now almost
depopulated city will again be the
crowded capital.

Physicians Report 90.7 Out of 100,000
Dis, as Compared With 200
In 1905.
New York.—The death rate from all
forma of tuberculosis in the year 1921
reached the remarkably low level of
90.7 per 100,000 population. This in-
formation has been obtained by the
National Tuberculosis association from
the registrars of 45 states in the Union.
In 1921 return*- from 40 states
showed a death rate of 108 per 100,000.
Thee decline in 1921 is equivalent, ac-
cording to the association, to a saving
of about 18,000 lives In 1921 over 1920.
The association points out further
that since it began its active program
In 1905 tl»e tuberculosis death rate has
been cut from slightly more than 200
to a figure well below 100 per 100,000
