quiet and values narrow.

severe break OF yesterday. on the whole
there was little change In the market
values, II being a featureless market.
Wheat held steady and values we're well
sustained considering the bearish senti-
ment that was prevalent. Offerings in the
pit were lighter and receipts only moderate,
and this, II Is claimed, steadied the market
for the time being.
Corn held fairly steady until the close
OF the cash market, when bears raided
and hammered prices lower. The option
showed a &c loss at the close and none Of
the offerings were taken.

FIGHTING THE WHITE PLAGUE
Wide Campaign lRnne TO Reduce
Disease Among COlOred
People.

Efforts TO reduce mortality from tuber-
culosis among the negroes by forming
working leagues in colored churches
throughout the country are being pursued
by the public health and marine hospital
service OF the government, The organiza-
tlon Of such a league was by
the service last May, and 1t has reached
that point In progress where supplementary
suggestions as to organization and admin
istraUon can be made. c. p. Wertenbaker,
surgeon Of the service. In the latest report
on public health. has contributed an outline
OF what this organization should be.
The vulnerabillty Of the negro 20 tuber-
culosis was established long ago through
mortality statistics collected by the gov
ernment. The fact that the disease Is
seemingly more destructive OF that race
than Of the whites is not ascribed, however,
TO any inherent or constitutional weakness,
but to the conditions under which the negro
lives. Dr. wertenbaker thus sets forth
this condition:
Probably one OF the most important
factors In the spread OF tuberculosis, aside
from his habits, is the manner In which the
negro is housed. The negro as a rule IL
a renter The houses that he can rent are
usually In the poorest and most unhealthy
part OF the city. They are often poorly
constructed, badly lighted and ventilated
and frequently in bad repair. The rooms
are usually small and dark. having but
one window, and the top sash is seldom
arranged to be lowered. Many houses are
built on poorly drained ground and water
stands under them after each rain, making
the rooms damp and cold"
It is suggested that leaders Of the race In
the various states organise leagues. adopt
constitutions and appoint committees to Sc
lect a vice president for each county IN
every state. The latter officials are ex-
pected to appoint representatives in each
community 10 help them organize leagues
in the local churches and TO arouse interest
