The Kansas CTS Packer is in re-

the remarkable fact that with all the

Here is the Record-Herali's edito-
rial:

Mr.. Taylor says in his communica-

MACE FARLAND NOW
REPLIES TO WEST
Defends Partial Enforce
ment Of Smoke Law.
WANTS MORE INSPECTORS
Commissioner Thinks Health Depart
ment Has Done Best It Could
Under Circumstances.

Commissioner Macfarland today re-
piled 10 Commissioner Vests statement
Of yesterday. criticlsing the failure OF
the Health Department for an effective
enforcement Of the smoke law.
The statement today by the president
OF the board is more emphatic and com
piete Than that which precipitated the
discussion between the two civil Com
missiOncrs over this much talked OF
measure.
The statement is as follows;
Il regret that 1t is impracticable for
me 10 approve the motion that all vio-
latiOns OF the smoke law must be prose
cuted, until Congress- shall provide addi-
tional inspectors as requested by the
Commissioners In numbers sufficient 10
cover all cases. Il Is physically impossi-
bic fo- the one inspector now available
by detail from other duties to prosecute.
except as he has been doing.
Time Spent in Court.
Even under the Police Court practice
Of taking collateral In minimum
amount. instead of imposing punitive
fines, the Inspector must give much of
his time at the Police Court, and II the
cases were tried as the law contem-
plates he would have TO spend much
more time there At times the inspector
has had 10 give the whole day or more
TO one case. In any case he must pre-
pare for trial and go 10 court
"The obvious purpose OF the Commits
sioners In recommending that additional
inspectors be provided was 10 cover the
lack OF q sufficient force To prosecute
as well as 10 observe violations Of this
law.
Pending the provision of additional
inspectors. the Health Department has
done the best IL could and with success
which merits praise, and promises con-
tinued Improvement. Inasmuch as n
could not take every reported case Of
violation into court, IL pursued the IA
tional course Of prosecuting the most
fagrant cases. II warned all persons
whose plants violated the law. and
those warnings resulted In many in
stances in such Improvement OF the
plants as prevented future violation.
Where the warnings were not needed
effective prosecutions were brought.
Basis of Prosecution.
The prosecutions have always been
made not on one observation only when
exccuti0nal conditions might exist. but
upop the whole record OF the plant, af-
ter due warning and opportunity for
Improvement. Some plants, therefore
have been prosecuted many times, and
ought TO b.. prosecuted until they COM
ply with the law, as many others have
already done.
IAN have been treated alike, as the
records will show. Full information has
