nator OF disease the mosquito IS
branded as being equally as great

its crusade for the determination
of the fly, issued bulletin today
on the protection of communities
from mosquitoes. He lays stress on
the necessity of abolishing breeding
places of the insect pest.
Since the discovery that mosqui-
toes are not only nuisances, but are
also conyeyers of malaria, yellow
fever, filariasis and dengue fever, a
great deal of remedial work has been
done by individuals and communi-

Among the leaders OF the organiza-

to the support of the administration.
But Gallinger OF New Hampshire, sec

after a conference with the president
Saturday night that he would oppose

The Course Of Curtis.
One of the interesting figures in the
fight is Curtis of Kansas Mr.. Curtis
has written letters TO Kansas farmers
in which, it is said, he points out that
the bill is not in their interests and
asks them what course they desire
him to pursue. He has sent into the
state, also, as a forerunner of his let
ter OF inquiry, speech delivered
against the treaty by Senator McCum-
Der, standpatter. The answer to his
inquiry would be, very naturally, a
protest AGAINST the bill. 1t is recalled
here in Washington that when Mr..
Curtis was voting for the Payne-Ald-
rich bill two years ago he was not so
keen to follow Kansas sentiment
The president has committed the in
terests of his administration to Curtis
in Kansas. He has given him the fed
eral patronage, refusing to make a
single appointment recommended by
Bristow. Everything the president
could do for Curtis he has done, and
