Rosina Mohaupt of the Detroit bureau of governmental research, author of the survey, warned that "it is dangerous to conclude that city with a low per capita debt is more efficiently and economically managed than one with a higher debt burden." "Sometimes economy is enforced by legal and economic restrictions over which the local officials have no control," the economic expert declared. "Sometimes high debt is incurred to provide facilities which. It is hoped, will attract a larger population with a lower per capita debt burden resulting in the future. The age, the topography, the tradition of essential services and many other factors have so much effect that comparisons between cities are not only invidious, but dangerous." Miss Mohaupt listed three reasons for the decline of municipal debt generally. They were: Decline in the rate of growth of large cities with consequent reduced need for large capital improvements, federal public works programs, and the recent stress on economy budgets in which expensive capital costs are postponed in favor of more pressing necessities. Central India Fighting Influx of Wild Weed DELHI Thousands of acres of cultivated land in central India are being ruined by a poisonous weed which is to be studied under a plan of research approved by the imperial council of agricultural research.

It spreads with tremendous rapidity, and it is said that no crop has been found that will grow where it takes root two-ye- ar (Model "250") a.
