WAR ON CONTAG|ON

DESPITE Low FUND
Service Not to Be Eliminated
If Congress Refuses
Appropriation.

The closing of the quarantine station
and the reduction in the number OF
guards at the house OF Ancieto Palabay,
the Filipino leper. together with other
changes which were not disclosed. has
made It possible to continue the con-
tagious disease service one or two days
longer, according TO an announcement
of the health officials.
In the meantime the Commissioners
and Health Officer Woodward are
awaiting action by Congress on the
joint resolution providing for an addi-
tional 81, 900 for salaries, which will pro-
vide for the maintenance of the service
until July l. when an appropriation Of
SIS, 900 becomes available.
In any event, the contagious disease
service. though seriously crippled. will
not be discontinued. Health Officer
Woodward, in first bringing the matter
to the attention of the Commissioners
and Congress said the suspension of the
service was not to be considered.
Should Congress refuse to authorize the
additional expenditure, the service will
not go out Of existence, though by what
means it will be continued the authori-
ties have not made known.
In view, however, OF their explanation
that the deficiency was caused by the
presence Of the leper, the Commission
ers and the Health Officer are hoping
that Congress will authorize the ex-
penditure OF an additional 1900.

Calling the roll Of dead members, re-

memorial service last night In the tenn
pie Of the knights Of Pythias.
The chief address was made by Repre-

The example of friendly devotion,
said Mr.. Sloan, rs the basis OF the
Pythian organization, an organization
somewhat military in form but purely
civic In fact 1t emphasizes the essen
tial qualities of manly worth and its
living membership is found wherever
exalted citizenship gathers; its sacred
dead lie under tropical palm, temperate
oak, and Northern pine"
