Whiting, Ind, Jan. 30.-The annual
report OF the Whiting board of health
is out and is as follows:
In our report for the year 1910 we
stated that we felt gratified with the
years work but not satisfied, for the
past year we certainly feel satisfied but
not eontented the work becomes easier
year by year owing to the fact that
the purpose of the work is better UNI
derstood by the public and they give
more material assistance as they see
the benefits accrue; but as the work
grows easier. the work of the depart
ment multipiies and keeps extending it
self to immeasureable limits and there
is no end. there can be no end so long
as violations of sanitary laws and the
laws of health are broken. Among the
most vital conditions existing in this
city. that has been a menace TO the
citizens thereof, is the domestic water
supply. This. we believe has been
solved for the present at least and can
now be considered reasonably safe. A
comparison of the number of typhoid
fever reports. year by year, prior to the
installation of treatment of the water.
with the number reported since that
time. will show how efficient the same

Next in Importance to the treatment
of our drinking water is the conserva-
ton of our supply. We must defect the
sewage from the lake. partially treat
the same and dispose of ii through 9TH
err channels. This will be a big under
taking, in fact too big for any city
in the region to hazard but it is not
too soon, in fact. already too. much
time has been lost to further invite
additional sacrifices of lives and mon
ey.
We have not yet found men in this
region with the courage of their con-
victions to start this movement and
carry it to a point. that, by its own very
Importance, will keep it growing larg-
er and larger until nothing but its own
final achievement will see the termina-
ton. Let the newspaper of this region
take up the fight; keep 1t before the
public eye, not this week or next week,
but every week for the balance of the
year, and the people will demand that
somes hing be done.

The great danger to society from

the fact that the worker is an individ-

and is transmitting through another
generation. and. perhaps. through many
generations, the evil weaknesses and
degeneration which must necessarily

he is subjected by this corporation.
This degeneration is not merely physi-

BRANDE|S APPEARS
BEFORE STEEL COMMITTEE
Shows His Ignorance of Conditions in Testimony Given
Yesterday, in Which He Says U. S. Steel Company
Is Making Slaves and Causing Human Race to De-
teriorate; Long Hours Make Men Wrecks

Washington, Jan. 80 The United
States Steel Corporation has produced a
condition in regard to it's workers ex-
actly comparable to land rent condi-
tlons in Ireland which have destroyed
the happiness and eaten out the lives
of the Irish peasantry. The condition
OF the steel workers in America is in
finitely more pitiable than that of the
negro of slave days. The slave. was
cared for, nourished and protected: his
energies and capacity were conserved
and lastly. he came into sympathetic
contact with his master. There is
nothing OF that sort in the attitude Of
the Steel Corporation toward the thou
sands of human machines in its en-
ploy."
This. assertion was made yesterday
by Louis ID. Brandeis before a special
session of the Stanley steel investigat-
ing committee. In his statement, which
was exhaustive. Mr.. Brandeis quoted
extensively from the report of the in
vestigation into steel conditions by the
department of commerce and labor At
torneys for the steel corporation siren
uously objected to the testimony.
Race Degenerating, He Says.
The objection created lively fifteen
minutes preceding Chairman Stanley's
request to Mr.. Brandeis to proceed with
his testimony. He said:
There is a condition to which these,
steel workers nave been subjected. and
which is absolutely inconsistent with
the welfare not only of them, but of
our country. What does it mean? Does
it not mean absolutely and certainly
