duties. Mr.. Hart appeared as his
own attorney and filed objections to

ment in which he repeated his charges,

inch and announced that he was
ready to defend his position as con.

At the conclusion of the prelim-
1naries the court announced the ap-
pointment of Ex-Governor G.. S. Ives

Little Danger of Building Trades
Strike in New York.
New York, Jan. There is little
chance of strikes this year among the
building trades unions. The employ
ers have signed agreements with
large number of the men and in cases
where agreements have not been con-
Guided arrangements are under way.
The following statement was issued in
behalf Of the Employers association:
MANY of the unions are satisfied to
renew their agreements at the old
wage rates, hoping that later in the
year matters may improve in the
building industry At present the out
look is bad. We may have a poor
building season this year. The me-
chanics, like the employers, can only
hope that the stagnation will not last
long. The arbitration agreement hav.
ing proved effective in the matter of
the prevention of strikes the employ
ers have decided not to reduce wages.
The workers as we'll are DESTROYS of
the continuance of the present har-
monious conditions in the building in
dustry. The arbitration plan has re-
duced strikes to a minimum and both
sides feel that the arbitration agree
ment should remain permanent"

NATIONAL HEALTH BUREAU
Effort to Have Congress Create Fed

Effort to Have Congress Create Fed
eral Department..
Chicago, Jan. A national bureau
of health for the regulation Of the
peoples physical welfare, planned by
the leading specialists of the United
States and endorsed by President
Roosevelt, may take it's place in the
federal departments of the govern
ment within the year through the eff
forts of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science.
The ultimate reduction of the death
rate in America by one-half is to be
the aim of the new governmental
board and it is deemed a promise not
impossible of fulfillment.
Plans for the bureau were an
nounced at the University of Chicago
by Professor Irving Fisher, the Yale
university economist and chairman Of
the committee Of 100 distinguished
scientists who have had charge of the
undertaking. The membership of the
committee includes leaders in the vari-
Gus branches of the medical and social
sciences from the important universe
ties and other centers of the country
The educators have been assured
that the first steps in the organization
of the health bureau will be taken at
the present session of congress and
the president has sent his personal
encouragement and endorsement to
the committee. According to Profess
sor Fisher it is believed probable that
President Roosevelt will send a spe-
cial message to congress this month
on the subject.
