Operation Of Government
Banks Great Stimulant to
Financial Business.
FAVORED BY BROAD BANKERS

The operation Of the postal savings
banks is demonstrating, even 30 a
good many bankers, that they are an
aid, and an important one, to the bank
ling business Just what the broader
minded bankers predicted, has come to
pass, the money that the postal saw
Iings banks get, comes from depositors
who previously kept their money in an
old stocking or in the mattress, and
just so much cash is added to that
available for business uses, for the
government puts this money into COM
lmercial banks and it gets into circula-
|tion. A broadening of state laws as
to trust company banks has worked a
similar broadening of the available
financial facilities Of the state, though
they might be further broadened to
the public advantage. The showing
made by the state s trust companies is
one of the strongest evidences Of do
mestic growth in wealth and resources
that can be pointed out. Five years
ago the total resources of the trust
companies of the state were $7,700,000.
Today they are about $l2,o00,000.
The Wisconsin Trust Company, the
largest one in Milwaukee, as we'll as
In the state, now has resources of
about $2,500,00O and the breadth of
activities open to such financial in
stitutions, is we'll illustrated by the
800 or more various trusts which it is
handling FOR its customers, some OF
immense financial Importance. It is
running a saw mill, coal yard, manu-
featuring plants, and as executor, trus-
tee, or assignee, and in cooperation
with other trustees, executors and man
ayers of estates, its activities broadly
ramify the field of business and fin
ance. Such expert service, as the
country grows older, is indispensable
to modern needs. No private individ.
ual, and no single banker, can do what
| is easily possible to a trained corps Of
men, each specializing in some depart
ment of the investment field AS be-
fore remarked the growth Of these In
stitutions emphasizes the growing and
broadening financial intelligence of the
whole state.

All Of the candidates for Office at
the coming primary election should
make a close study Of the ssCorrupt
Practices Act passed by the last
legislature for that measure certainly
does limit the activities of candi-
date for Office in a way never before
attempted in this or. any other state
and it is believed that public senti-
ment will uphold the strictest enforce
ment Of the law. Most Of the things
that have been the common regular
order Of procedure in previous cam
paigns are now absolutely forbidden
and almost any candidate may find
himself violating tie law whea he
honestly believes he is making the
tamest kind Of a race for Office, but
all candidates should bear in mind
that ignorance of the law is no ex-
euse and protect themselves by finding
out just where they stand. The COM
ing elections in most of the cities of
the state will show whether the law
can be enforced or whether it is to be-
come a dead letter as have so many of
the reform measures passed in this
state in recent years. There IS one
thing certain and that is that the men
who make q business of politics are
going to resist the enforcement Of the
law by every means in their power.

tt is rather surprising that so few
of the teachers in the city schools
have so far taken advantage of the
pension measure passed for their bene-
fit and if conditions in this city are
not exceptional and the teachers in
other cities have been as slow to regis
ter for pensions under the law as the
Kenosha teachers, it shows that the
impression prevailing at the time the
establishment Of pension system was
under discussion, that the great ma
icrity of the teachers oe the state
favored such system, was mistaken
one. It shows also that most of the
teachers i'm Wisconsin have not taken
up teaching as a profession: that for
most of them it is but a temporary
makeshift and that they have no ex-
pectation Of ever receiving any Of the
benefits of the pension system. The
failure to register for pensions can be
explained in no other wsSk

SEE NEED OF THIS WORK
Organization Expected to Affiliate with
Workers Along Same Line in other
Cities and Conduct an Educational
Campaign to Save Lives of Infants.

preliminary steps were taken In Ken
osha on Thursday for the formation of
an Infant Welfare association In the
city, with view Of saving the lives
of infants in the city during the COM
ing summer months. The examination
of the census reports for Kenosha shows
that infant mortality in Kenosha is
very high; in fact, higher than in al
most any city Of the state, and at the
meeting which was held at the offices
of the Associated Charities on Thurs
day this matter was taken up and dis
cussed and the further plans for alper-
manent organization will undoubtedly
be announced within a very few days.
Many of the best known women of
the city promise to be interested in
the new movement and it is regarded as
one of the most important movements
started in the city in years. Tt will be
associated with the work Of the organ
lied charities of the city and it's work
will in al great measure be along lines
outlined by similar organizations in
other cities. One Of the women of the
city deeply interested in the proposed
organization in speaking of the work
said: ssWomen of Kenosha who have
studied the problem Of infant mortali-
ty are convinced that for the greater
part this slaughter Of the innocents
is due to the ignorance Of mothers. This
ignorance in the care of babies is not
found among foreigners alone, but
there are many young women who were
born and raised in Kenosha who are
hopelessly ignorant in regard to the
care of babies. 1T will be the plan of
the proposed organization to conduct
an educational campaign to give these
women some idea of what the infant
demands. We want to give the babies
a better chance to live through the
summer, and it is certain that the or
ganization working along the right lines
can secure results. These associations
have been organized in all Of the larg-
er cities of the country and it is pretty
certain that the organizations in Mil
waukee and Chicago, which are saw
ing the lives of thousands of babies
every year, will be willing to aid the
women Of Kenosha in this work. The
work of the association is particularly
potent in the summer months, as it has
been shown that large proportion of
the deaths among the small children
come during these months. Many of
these deaths are due to improper feed
ing and improper clothing of the chill
dren and it will be the first work of the
new Kenosha organization to show the
mothers of the children the best way
to feed and clothe the babies to insure
them the proper chance to survive the
hot weather.
Within short time formal meeting
will be called at which time the plans
for the new organization will be made
public.

MANY SEEK CERTIFICATES.
Foreigners in Kenosha Seeking Natur-
alization Certificates in Court.

More than a score of the foreigners
in Kenosha to whom citizenship had
been granted, but to whom no certifi-
cate of naturalization had been issued,
have applied to Clerk OF the Circuit
Court DeDeimer for a formal certifi-
cate. As yet the clerk has made no ar
rangement for the printing of these
certificates but the demand for them
promises to be so great that as soon
as Judge Belden comes to Kenosha an
agreement will be made as to the form
of the certificate and they will be Sc
cured. 1t is thought that fully 16O
Of the 200 alien citizens affected by
the law will demand the formal GER

MANY SUGGESTIONS MADE
State Board of Health Deeply inter
ested in Kenosha Situation Offers Its
Services to Make Proposed New
Movement of Greatest Public Value.


deep interest in the proposal that has
been made to the common council for
a reorganization Of the board of health
in the city which will be adequate to
the demands of the city and the prop
0slt1On has also met with the most
ardent support Of DR.. G. A. Harper of
Madison, the secretary Of the state
board of health. DR.. Harper has an
nounced that he will be willing to
come to Kenosha and give the people
of the city any suggestions that may
be possible to aid in the organization.
The special committee in charge Of
the work is securing data from many
cities in the state and the clerks and
health officers in these cities have
shown a willingness to aid in making
the movement in Kenosha success.
The city of Lacrosse is declared to
have the best health department in the
state not excluding Milwaukee and of
fcials Of the health board in that city
have consented to come to Kenosha If
necessary and show the members of
the special committee the methods fol
lowed in that city. The Kenosha
County Medical Society will be asked
to meet with the spec al committee in
an effort to outline q plan which will
bring better results in the city and all
of the physicians interviewed have
given assurance that they viii CO.
operate in the work. City Clerk @.
S. Norsman has sent to the chairman
Of the special committee reports of the
department. at Madison for several
years past and these reports show the
great activity of the health depart
ment of that city. In Madison the
health officer gives his entire time to
the work of the office and he has two
assistants. One of these is in charge
Of the citys emergency and contagious
disease hospital while the other is EN-
-ployed as a health officer. Under the
ordinance at Madison the health officer
is forced to personally attend to all
quarantine regulations. In addition to
this he has charge Of enforcing other
provisions Of the ordinance relating
to public nuisances, defective plumbing,
filthy yards and alleys, examination Of
wells, slaughter houses, and an annual
inspection Of the public drains and
sewers.
DR.. Harper, the secretary Of the
state board Of health, will in a few
days send to the committee some sug-
gestions as to his opinion, of model
arrangement for the city of Kenosha.
DR.. Harper has been called to Keno
sha on several occasions and he has
taken a deep interest in the affairs of
the city and is well acquainted with
the demands of the people.
The special committee now hopes to
have public meeting and have re-
port made so as to present it to the
council at the second meeting Of the
council in March with q view of hav-
ing changed conditions before the city
shall begin its new fiscal year.
