TAFT'S PEACE FEAST
 A DIPLOMATIC FRISCO
COnterGes Fall to Agree With
 President on Tariff.

Washington, July 2S-The confident ly proclaimed White House dinner and conference. at which tariff conferees and President Taft's closest advisers were brought together in the effort to settle differences regarding the tariff bill, has left the disputes over raw materials no nearer adjustment than before.
 Only one question Is determined be- ferees will have to settle their own differences.
 Apparently the president realizes that the time has not yet arrived to call for q decision on the subject of raw materials. It is stated that he did not press the representatives of either house or senate for more definite state ments of the situation in the respec- dive branches of congress.
 The customs court and the corpora. ton tax amendments were discussed 1t length. Most of those present agreed with President Taft that the customs court should be situated in Washington. since it is to be a court of appeals whose decisions will be final.
 The discussion of the corporation tax dealt with the revenue 1t will pro- duce and the general effect of the tax from a political point of view.
 Taft's big peace dinner to the con- ferees on the tariff bill and to several of his closest advisers probably will be written down in history as one of the most significant events of purely political bearing that has ever taken place at the White House.

 Montgomery. Ala, July 2S.-In his message to the legislature Governor Conner advised making prohibition con- stitutional, because the members who passed the present law no doubt in- tended a revolution in the relation of the state to liqusr and had in mind fixing it so that the state would never again have saloons or liquor licenses. In his opinion prohibition should be disposed of so that it will not be re- current at every election and dis turbing factor in the politics of the state.
 Necessity for further statutory pro- hibition acts is found, the governor thinks, In the fact that in many sec tions the law has been disregarded.

ANTI-TuBERcULosIs CRUSADE.

a / the recent meeting of the society for the
4 study of the Prevention of tuberculosis,
held in New York, there were many statements
highly encouraging of the progress Of the work,
but there was also tinge of pessimism in a
declaration by Mr.. Nathan Strauss that tubercu-
losis IS on the increase in New York City
Mr.. Strauss based his remarks on the statis-
tics Of the New York Health Department which
show that in spite of the extraordinary efforts
that have been made to combat the disease there
has actually been a large increase in the num-
Der Of deaths Mr.. Strauss is a pure milk enthu-
siast. For years he has been laboring to secure
purer milk for New York City. He attributes
the increase of tuberculosis to improper milk
He believes that there wibe no real check to
the spread OF consumption until the sale of the
product of tuberculosis cows is prohibited. Health
authorities have been trying to stop such sale,
but the results in New York show that their ef-
forts have not been successful Mr. Strauss
thinks that it should be crime 10 sell milk un-
less it comes from tuberculn tested cows or has
been properly pasteurized.
The number Of deaths in the large cities due
to diseased milk must be appalling
Although these statements of Mr. Strauss are
discouraging, as well as surprising, they show
all the greater need of the campaign that is being
waged against tuberculosis Largely it must be
campaign of education Only when the peo-
pie understand the nature of consumption and
the dangers of infection from milk and from 9TH
er preventable sources, will public sentiment be
aroused sufficiently to demand the enforcement
of proper precautionary measures The edu-
catonal feature of the present movement against
tuberculosis is the most hopeful sign Decrease
in the disease must come as the causes Of it arc
limited or abolished
The eminent DR.. Osler pointed out at the meet
ing the important things that have been accom-
pllshed so far in the movement-the awakening
of public interest, the contributions OF large sums
OF money by both states and individuals and tn,
enlistment in the cause of many volunteer work
ers. Much is still necessary to be done and will
be done. Instead. therefore. of discouraaemen
