READY TO MOVE
Uniform Law for individual

Advocated.

Denver, Colo, Aug. 23.-"Give US an
uniform pure food law which may be
accepted or rejected by the individual
states, each according to its needs. A
national law should attempt no more
than the regulation of interstate COM
merce"
This was the slogan set tonight for
the opening tomorrow of the thirteenth
annual convention of the Association of
State and National Food and Dairy de-
partments. That the convention will
take action for the submission to the
various state legislatures of a model
food bill" was expressed after a pre-
liminaTy meeting tonight of a special
committee headed by Dr.. E. F. Ladd,
state food commissioner of North Da-
kOta and author of the Ladd model
food law. It is the plan to forward the
drafted bill, after its approval by the
convention, to the various states
Secretary Of Agriculture James VIII
son, who is here, as he says, as a spec
tatoT, is expected to use his influence
for the more stringent enforcement Of
the federal law as opposed to model"
state laws. Secretary Wilson is not
present as a delegate and it is not
known whether he will speak. DR. H

sents the department of agriculture, is
to cOnfne his marks to THE Chemis-

OFFICIALS FEEL CONCERN
Sealing Agent Fails to Make Report
and His Safety Is Questioned
Japs Cause of Alarm,

Washington. Aug. 23.-Officials OF the
department of commerce and labor feel
considerable concern. it was said today.
because of failing to receive the report OF
Agent w. ]. Lembkey, giving the number
of seals taken on the PriblOff islands by
the Northern American Commercial COM
pany which leases the sealing rights from
the government.
The report should have been received
by Aug. 10, but nothing has been heard
from Mr.. Lembkey. The fact that there
were known To be q number of japanese
pelagic sealing expeditions in the vicinity
of the islands is the chief cause for the
alarm.
Mr. Lembkey took with him two noun
tain howitzers and number of side
arms.
Raids on the islands have been numer-
Gus in the last few years, and the Jap
anese were particularly daring, it is said,
about the time the season closed. The
revenue cutter in that vicinity was kept
engaged in patrolling and watching seal
ers. who kept so close 20 the islands that.
unless under constant surveillance, they
did not hesitate to kill the herds in a
ruthless manner.

REDUCING STANDING ARMY
Prosperous Conditions Help to Make
Conformation With Desire Of
President Easy Matter.

Washington. Aug. 2S.-Returning pros
psTity is having effect on recruiting men
for the United States army. making it
more difficult to keep up the standard
established during the time following the
panic of 1907, when splendid material was
available from the ranks of the unem-
ploysd.
The authorized strength of the army is
$500 men, exclusive of the hospital corps.
which numbers $500 men. 1t will not be
a hard matter therefore, to reduce the
size of the standing army in accordance
with President Taft's wishes
Possibly the cause for this reduction IS
the difficulty of obtaining good men. but
the real reason is one of economy Every
man reduced means a saving Of 81 LOCO a
year. and if the reduction proposed
reaches 5000 men by July I next, the total
annual saving viii amount to 100000.
