HEALTH BOARD SHY
OF FUNDS TO WAGE
WAR UPON DISEASE
Department Official Declares
He Will Be Hampered If
Epidemic Breaks Out.

"1n the event Of an outbreak Of any
contagious diseases in the District, the
Health Department will be seriously
hampered in it's work of fighting such
an Epidemic said DIR. william c.
Woodward, District Health Officer, to-
day.
THE department has asked from Con-
gress an appropriation of $4,000 for its
contagious disease service. Congress
has clipped 5000 from this request
With the decreased appropriation the
District Health Department would be
unable to fight any serious epidemic,
from which no city, regardless of its
sanitary conditions and climate, is at
all times immune.
"There will be $685. 1-s available
each month for the use of the conta-
ent Congressional plans. The monthly
payroll, which includes the salaries Of
the inspectors of the contagious dis
ease service, bacteriologist, and attend
ants at the smallpox hospital, aggre-
gate $637.5O.
Will Increase Work.
In order to meet the situation, Health
Officer Woodward says, II will be neces-
sary to assign to the regular sanitary
inspection force the duty of placardlng
houses on account of scarlet fever, diph-
tneTla, ana contagious diseases, OF In
vestigating the origin of these diseases
and of typhoid fever, and of conducting
other inquiries that may be necessary
in connection with the contagious dis
ease work
Not being physicians, the sanitary in
spectors are not fitted for this work.
but, according to the Health Officer,
must be called into service as the de-
partment has no other force available.
With an appropriation of $4,000 for
the fiscal year the Contagious Disease
upon 1t, but, according to officials, It
was only because there were no epidem-
les during the year.
Hampered In 1911.
The number of smallpox cases was the
smallest in recent years and there was
no special demands made upon the fund
from other services. The department
was seriously hampered. however, by
lack of funds the previous year.
With six cases Of smallpox in the hos
pital, an alleged leper, Anacleto Pala-
bay, and nine persons who had come in
contact with smallpox patients in the
quarantine station to care for. the de-
partment was without means to meet its
necessities.
Congress finally came to its relief by
adopting on the recommendation of the
Commissioners a Joint resolution pro-
vding additional funds.
With an appropriation of only $10,0O0
available this year even the utmost
economy, in the opinion of officials will
not avert a similar situation If by rea-
son of a prevalence CT small poX or
other contagious disease any large de-
mand Is made upon the fund.

.LOR|MER TO PLEAD
OWN CASE BEFORE
SENATE COMRADES
His Dismissal From Seat Is
Predicted-Dillingham
Opens Defense.

The final struggle In the Senate over
the ousting of Senator William Lorimer
of Illinois was begun shortly after noon
today.
That the end of this struggle will be
the unseating of Lorimer is considered
certainty. Three or four days of dis
cussion are ahead. TheAhnal vote is ex-
pected Tuesday or Wednesday.
That vote will result m the passage OF
a resolution declaring that, in the judg-
ment OF the Senate, Lorimer Is not en-
titled to his seat. Practically, not tech
nically. this will mean his expulsion
from the body to which he has chung 80
long and so tenaclously.
Lorimer Losing Ground.
For weeks past. Lorimer has been
losing ground One blow after another
has fallen on him. The most serious
one was the overwhelming vote in tho
Illinois primaries for Roosevelt and
against President Taft, backed by Lori
mer and his Lincoln League.
1t was In the same primaries, too, that
the venerable Senator Cullom was de-
fcated his defeat being due to the fact
he had supported Lorimer
For months, the fate of Lorimer hung
In the balance In the Senate. Then the
scales began 10 UP against hlnh Now,
II Is estimated about two thirds Of the
Senators are prepared to vote against
him.
Will Plead Own Case.
Senator Lorimer was in the Senate
today and before the debate closes will
make a plea in his own behalf. It Is
expected that he will throw into this
plea all the feeling and eloquence of
man who wants to appeal to his col
leagues on the personal side to save
him from disgrace. But there is no
sign now that such an appeal will save
him. The minds of the Senators have
been made up.
All along there has been a vague
belief Lorimer would ultimately resign.
But the general feeling today. When
the case was taken up, was that the
hour had passed when his resignation
was possible.
Dillingham; Opened Case.
Senator Dillingham; Of Vermont opened
the discussion today. lie was recog-
nized Immediately after brief routine
business. He proceeded to a defense
of LorImer, which will occupy much OF
the day.

He spoke OF the vast amount OF time

When Making Pastry.

When making pastry it should al.
ways be made in cool place, if pos
slble. The hands, utensils and in.
gradients should all be kept cold or
the pastry becomes heavy. Always
rub in the shortening with the tips Of
the finger, as they are cooler than
the rest OF the hand. When adding
the water do it slowly aud carefully
so as to avoid making the pastry too
dry or too moist. II too dry /: will
be chippy and If too wet it will be
heavy and sodden. Handle 1t as lit
lie as possible and use the rolling pin
lightly and as seldom as possible. If

made several hours before 1t is need
