Labor Leaders After Inquiry
Approve Boy Scouts of America

Many Of the labor leaders connected
with the American Federation Of
Labor, after an investigation Of the
principles OF the Boy Scouts Of Amer
lea. have given e their hearty endorse
ment. They had heard much about
the military phase aud the strike
breaking feature Of the scout move
ment. but after examinaton o. the
manual OF the Boy Scouts of America
many OF them have become convinced
that that organization. OF which Hon
William H. Taft is the honorary head.
Is working against the military spirit
and is teaching the boys not 10 be
strike-brcakers. but TO be self reliant
and to do what their conscience dc
tates.
When several months ago the FIX
ecutive Committee OF the American
Federation OF Labor decided TO IN
vestlgate the scout movement, James
t. West. Chief Scout Executive, offered
to the labor leaders every facility to
inquire into the principles OF the Boy
Scouts OF America; he sent there lit
erature and everything treating with
the scout movement. In return many
OF them have sent letters to West ap-
proving of the Boy Scouts Of America

DR.. ROBIN SEES
LABORATORYNEED

Speaking Of the need OF a labora-
tory i'm this city owned by tho mu-
nicipality DR.. Albert Robin in an in
terview points out the great need of
such laboratory here. He said:
I'm the first place the Board Of
Health cannot carry on its work
properly without laboratory facili-
ties. That board should be in posi-
ton to make examinations of disin-
fectants. They should be in position
to regulate the proper length Of time
of quarantine. They should be in po-
sition to diagnose infectious diseases.
Without a laboratory they cannot do
any Of these things. and consequently
the Board Of Health is a negligible
factor in safeguarding the health OF
the community.
"As to the other departments, the
milk inspection cannot be done thor
oughly without a laboratory examin-
alton of the quality of the milk. The
meat inspections cannot be carried
on without a laboratory examination
of infected meats.
"The Street and Sewer Department
would benefit by a laboratory. The
analysis OF street building material
could be made. The coal item alone
would save for the city hundreds Of
dollars by buying the coal on analy-
sis.
"The physicians Of the city demand
a laboratory because IL would give
themA easy facilities to make quick
and correct diagnosis of infectious
diseases. This would not only be Of
benefit TO the physician, but would
be far greater benefit TO the patient,
whose life may depend upon a quick
and correct diagnosis.
ct is true that the State laboratory
Mt Newark is ready to do all OF these
things, but it is inaccessible and
many times practically useless"
