AS result OF conference held yes
terday afternoon between NJ S. Brown
ing of Ogden and President w. w.
Armstrong and Assistant Secretary 4.
G. Mackenzie OF the Salt Lake CONNER
cial club, a move Is about to be launche ed
whereby Ogden and Salt Lake will join
hands and cooperate energetically in
the matter of transoontinental automo-
bile routes.
Under an agreement reached unani-
mously. Mr.. Browning has taken 1t upon
himself to organize committee OF rep
resentative Ogden citizens. A similar
local Commercial club. Both bodies are
TO confer as soon as their personnels
have been completed and will delve deep
into the automobile highways question
as affecting Ogden and Salt Lake
AT present a number of plans have
been proposed to establish transconti-
mental routes across the country. These
official highways have been generally ac-
cepted as far west the Missouri river.
From that point on the plans have CEN
tered upon two divisions, a southern and
northern. Ogden has been pulling for
route through that city and Salt Lake
has taken similar steps for this city.
THESE efforts on the part of one or the
other city have not been made in hearty
corporation. The object Of the COM
mittee conference is to bring trans
continental routes through both cities
stretches alike In their l4bors the
members OF the committees wifi work in
the interests OF both cities and the state
at large.

Take Prompt Action.
COMMITTEE is NAMED
Levy of Special Tax to I'M

Is Requested.

A movement to improve the methods
used in collecting and disposing of city
garbage was launched at the Com
mercial club yesterday when the com
mittec on sanitation and public wei
fare met with Mrs. C. T.. Allen. Mrs
George a. Lowe, Mrs. A. III, Bird and
Mrs, Grant Hampton to discuss the
matter.
A subcommittee composed of T. a.
Williams, DR.. George W. Middleton ana
William Bowen, with which the women
heretofore mentioned Will cooperate
was appointed to take up the important
question. The committee and its asso-
ciates will present to the city commits
sion two resolutions.
Ask for Special Tax.
The first will ask the commission TO
strictly enforce the city ordinance pro-
vidlng that all receptaclcs for city gar
bage shall be kept covered, the sec.
ond will ask that an ordinance be
passed levying a special tax, the reyo-
nue. to be devoted solely to the i'm
provement of sanitary conditions in the
city.
Another suggestion favored, and
which Will be placed before the COM
missioners. was q plan for the estab-
lishment in this city or vicinity OF
at least two garbage incineration
plants, where all city refuse and gar
bage would be burned, This method
of sanitation has been followed out
with great success in Europe and in
the larger cities of this country at u
nominal expense and great improve
ment Of health conditions.
Plea for Distinction.
An endeavor. also will be made to
bring about the proper disinfection Of
garbage receptacles. 1t was urged
that for small expenditure annually
the city garbage collectors could carry
with their wagons a box of chloride
of lime or some other disinfectant,
which could easily be sprinklcd in the
garbage receptacle after it had been
emptied. This suggestion, it was de-
clared. ls favored and strongly urged
by DR.. S. G.. Paul commissioner Of
health, who declares that surpris-
ing percentage of sickness and disease
is directly traceable to unsanitary gar
bage collection and disposition.
Commissioner Paul has notified the
committee that he will be pleased to
cooperate in any way suggested with
the committee or IT'S associates in any
move that will improve sanitary condi-
tions in Salt Lake.
