WASHINGTON. Nov. 30.-Supervislng
Surgeon General Wyman of the marine
hospital service, in his annual report, calls
attention to the prevalence OF leprosy,
particularly in the neighborhood of the
West Indies and South America, and to
the presence of the disease IN various
cities and localities of the United States.
and states that cases may be allowed to
exist undisturbed 10 some localities by
health authorities because no provision is
made for their segregation.
Whatever theories may be advanced
regarding the contagiousness of the dis.
ease, there is no doubt hat where Indif-
ference is manifested as to its isolation it
slowly spreads, and as no state possesses a
lepers' hospital. the establishment of a
national lepers' hospital is recommended.

points are involved in the decision of
these suits aud the court heard all the
cases as one and made an order by which
each of the three attorneys representing
the three firms were assigned one of the
points at issue TO be reviewed in opening
the argument. W. w. Smith OF New
York argued the bounty clause. contend
ing that bounties were unconstitutional
aud invalidated the whole act. Edwin
b. Smith, ex-assistant attorney general
and nov Of New York, argued that the
reciprocity feature was the delegation OF
a taxing power to the president, which in
validated the act. N. W. Bliss of Chi
cago argued that the law was unconstitu-
tional because of the omission OF the to-
bscco rebate action. The argument will

suit OF this act, the report states. has

claims already prepared. In view of
the tendency of the law to create
overtime claims and the GER

fortunate experience hat the law puts a
premium on lettering and Inefficiency.

certain notifications of the law. among
them that 20 carrier be required to work

seven days where there Is a Sunday
service or iorty-eieht hours where there Is
no Sunday service. Also, hat carriers,
