Minneapolis Law Valid.

Minneapolis. July 8.-The tuberculin
test for cattle and the Minneapolis
milk ordinance prohibiting the sale Of
all milk not taken from officially in.
spected cattle is held valid by Judge
Frank c. Brooks of the district court,
who denied the application of several
milk dealers for an injunction restrain.
ing the city and DR.. P. M. Hall, health
commissioner, from destroying their
milk
This is the first decision unfolding
an ordinance requiring milk to come
from herds subjected to the tuberculin
test ever rendered either in Minneapo
lis or elsewhere, and is decisive vic
tory for the health department.
The case has been in court since
Jan. 26. The Seven Corners Milk com.
pany, the Bloomington Milk company,
the Flour City Creamery company and
the Star creamery filed joint applica:
ton for an Injunction. The health de.
partment had conflscated quantities Of
milk belonging to these concerns be.
cause the milk came from unexpected
herds.
The plaintiffs argued that the pas.
teurization killed the milk germs Of
tuberculosis and that inspection was
not necessary. The court held, how.
ever, that as no method was UNIVERSAL
ly used or approved for killing the
baciln, the health department had q
right to demand inspection Of all
herds.
Judge Brooks conclusion of law IL
as follows: 1.-The court finds that the
plaintiffs or any Of them are not en-.
titled to an injunction or any relief
whatever In this action, and that the
defendants are entitled to have judg.
ment for the dismissal Of said action
and. for their costs and disburse.
ments." A stay Of forty days is grant.
ed for appeal. =.
The Minneapolis ordinance was
passed two years ago and is the most
rigid in the country. 1t requires the
tuberculin test for every herd every
year.

NATHAN STRAUSS. INVESTIGATES
Minneapolis Ordinance Requiring tn.
bercuIar Test Annually Held Good
by the Courts, Over Protests
by Dairymen.

Stockholm, July S.-American inves:
LEGATIONS of the responsibility Of DO.
vine tuberculosis for the persistent
spread of the disease among human
beings. particularly children, were Of
t1cially reported today to the eighth
international tuberculosis conference,
in session here. by Nathan Straus.
The paper by the New York philan-
thropist was presented by DR.. Arthur
Randolph Green, medical director Of
the Straus pasteurized milk work. and
one Of the American delegates. 1t dis
closed for the first time the over
whelming evidence gathered by the
American Investigators to show the
responsibility of milk from tubercu-
lous cows for the infection of human
beings with tuberculosis.
| After carefully summing up the re-.
suits of milk investigation by which
the Koch error of 1901 was refuted
and large percentage of cases traced
to milk, Mr.. Straus' paper continued:
|. 1.-THE proof of the correctness Of
| pasteurization of milk as a life-sav-
ing measure has been rounded out by
DR.. Joseph H. Kastle, chief of the di-
vision of chemistry of the hygienic
| laboratory, who has shown that the
process, as recommended by the
United States public health service,
does not impair the ferments or en-
zymes contained in fresh milk, does
not alter the chemical composition of
milk, does not lessen its food value,
either as to nutrition or digestibility,
and does not alter its taste: or physical
qualities.
Believes Pasteurization Sufficient.
This method of destroying the tu-
bercle bacilli in milk, SO thoroughly
proved and justified by science. has
been practically INDICATED by my 1S
years experience in supplying pasteur-
lied milk for the babies in New York
and other cities in America and
abroad The result has been that
wherever pasteurization has. been in.
troduced In cities, having excessive in.
fantile death rates, the mortality
among the babies has been reduced
one-haf. -
I'm view of all. these facts that
have briefly summarized, the tuber.
culosis problem resolves itself largely
into a milk problem, and the milk
problem is not what to do, but how to
get it done. -. :.
1.-THE prevention Of the infection Of
healthy children with tuberculoua
milk requires the active and willing
cooperation Of the dairyman, the milk
dealer, the legislator, the health Of
ficer and the doctor. That these men
of diverse interests may work togeth
er to enforce the pasteurization OF
milk that is not from tuberculip tested
herds requires the earnest endeavors
of the organizations that have been
formed to fight tuberculosis and the
assistance of the pulpit and the press
to create such well-informed public
sentiment that it will be regarded az
a crime to feed child upon milk
of doubtful origin unless it has been
properly pasteurized."
