washington, May 91.-.A sensational
argument was made by Arthur o.
Holder, Of the American Federation of
Labor. before the Senate Committee
on Public Health. in favor of the crea.
ton of a department of public health
He spoke OF many of the steel plants
In pennsylvania as slaughter houses
and added:
L have been told that even murder
Is committed in the hospital of one OF
the steel plants on the theory that
dead man is better than a crippled
man"
Holder said there was terrible sac
riice of health and life In factories
due to bad sanitary conditions, defec-
tive machinery and the ovcrworking OF
employees. He felt that national
health department might cause an Inn
proNcfnent In these conditions.
Ambassador Inquiries.
newspaper clipping read to the
committee states that SO many Austri-
ans were killed in Ohio that the AUS
TRAN ambassador had determined to
c ,i upon his government TO ask the.
United states to apply remedy.
senator Smoot said Ohio members
OF Congress had denied the report.

oarnesie Institution ms informed the
the way of increased earning power
by employees in the shops would great
~ exceed the expense of maintaining

SUPERINTENDENT Walter Weyman, OF
the Marine Hospital Service. said the
proposed department would be valua-
bic in promoting International santa.
ton 1t might lead to the improve
ment of conditions in unsanitary coun-
tries that breed diseases which are
spread all over the world
Advantages in EpidcmIcs.
General George n. Sternberg, former
surgeon general of the army. declared
that epidemics of yellow fever and
some other diseases could be handled
better ny national than by local forces.
DR.. J. S. Fulton. of Baltimore, and
DR.. j. b. Gregg GUSTS. of this city,
also favored the bill.
The bill is opposed by the National
League Of Medical Freedom. which
caused Senators to-day 10 be showered
with thousands of kilograms of pro-
test against the creation of a depart
ment of health. Senator Depew alone
received nearly 1000. Opponents of
the bill Will be given hearing to-

POSED Federal department.
