URGES MILK -PAsTEURIzATION.
Report Made Public by Secretary Wilson
and a. D. Melvin on the Subject.

Washington, June 22.-Pasteurzation of milk
recommended in report made public to-day by
A D. Melvin, chief of the bureau of animal indus
try and Secretary Wilson. The report in the
interest Of public health strongly advocates clari-
fcaton and pasteuriZaton of all milk" The estao-
ishment OF pasteurization plants is recommended.
and in the absence of these the report urges that
milk be patteurized at home simply by bringing it
to the boiling point.
For certhcation the report specifies certain def
mite conditions including the requirement that the
milk be produced from proved free from tu-
berculoss by the tubercuin test. AS to certified
milk the report says
Certified milk is reasonably safe but this is no
guarantee that It may not occasionally contain
germs OF disease, and those who desire TO guard
against this slight risk should pasteurize 1t in the
home.'
On the dangers of milk the report is clear
and emphatic saying:
such hydra headed diseases cholera infantum
scarlet fever and diphtheria have been dissent
mated in the milk supply. Typhoid epidemics have
been thus caused and milk may be the vehicle Of
the germs OF tuberculosis and other infectious dis
and morbIfc agents"
This is the position taken by Nathan Straus for
fifteen years. Writing in The Forum in 1884, he
said:
Il hope that in the future It will be re-
garded as piece of criminal neglect TO feed young
children on milk that has not been pasteurized."

JOIN TO BAR NEGROES.
Property Ozoners Agree Not to Sell
or Lease to Them.

The owners of hathouses both sides of 14Oth
street. between Seventh and Eighth avenues, have
signed an agreement not to sell or lease their
premises TO negro tenants The agreement has
been filed IN the Registers Office and IS the result
Of the threatened invasion Of the district by ne
groes. It thought by several leading negro
operators that whites and could live peace
ably in the same section. provided the houses
cup!ed large plots In attractive district.
Acting this presumption five houses which
had been occupied by white persons rented
exclusively TO negro tenants, which caused the
white persons to desert that section Property
owners then banded themselves together to keep
their property allurng to white tenants. There
was secrecy about the protective measures
adopted and in several instances IN tho upper
West Side houses which had been leased 10 negro
tenants were purchased by white operators and
restrictions placed the premises SO the houses
could not be let again TO negroes.
This Is thought to be the first time IN the history
of this city when property owners have signed a
written agreement not to sell or lease their prem
ises TO negro tenants and have placed the agree
ment on file in public Office.
