The profession Of telling fortunes

THE PUBLIC WELFARE FIRST.

THE PUBLIC WELFARE FIRST.
Conservative examination of all the
known facts in the case OF Dr. Wiley,
under accusation of official impro-
priety in engaging expert services
technically in violation of an act of
Congress, leads to the conclusion that
the offense in this case. if any ex-
listed, was one Of method and not OF
effect. Dr. Wiley. whether with or
without the knowledge and consent OF
his superior officials. was doing what
has been done in practically all the
other departments. pursuing a prac-
tice that the terms of congressional
enactments often render necessary in
order to accomplish results, says the
Washington Star. 1t may not be the
best way to do the governments bust
ness. but it is none the less recog-
nized mode of procedure. 1t has been
followed. for instance. in the depart
ment of justice itself, presumably as
the only means Of enforcing certain
statutes and protecting public inter
ests. The government would lose
heavily if every official earnest in his
desire to execute the law were to be
dismissed from the public service for
doing what is charged against DR..
Wiley in this case.
1t is to be doubted whether any
thing will be gained by congressional
investigation of this matter at the
present juncture. The case is now
virtually before the president. who is
waiting for DR.. Wiley's reply before
action. Confidence is felt that he will
view the situation broadly. with an
eey to tie effective administration Of
the laws which safeguard the public
health. 1t is no: part of the immedi-
ate question that the president may be
embarrassed by an apparent conflict
vetween the governments chief chem
list and the attorney general. The
public will expect, and has reason at
present to look for a judicial determi-
nation calculated to give assurance
nat it is the purpose of the United
States government to conduct its bust
ness on high grounds of efficiency and
honesty, and not to allow small tech
nical considerations to stand in the
way of the public welfare

this and other things she refused to
do. She got work as a nurse until
she saved money enough to prosecute
the man.
