PRES. WILSON
 WILL ENFORCE
 PURE FOOD LAW

Atlantic City, N. J., June 5-Ther has been and will be no step back ward in the enforcement of the pure food law under the new administra- ton, pr. Carl L. Alsberg, chief of the bureau of chemistry, today, told the National Wholesale Grocers Associa- tior in annual session here. He add ed, however, that the administration of the law will gain in effectiveness if coupled with a policy of education and instruction
 pr. Alsberg said he hoped to make the chemistry bureau as valuable to the consumer the department of agriculture as a whole has been to the farmer.
 "Ona of tue great needs Of the times,' he continued, ''is more science in the manufa cture of foods. Here in the United States the business of food manufacture has advanced with ex- traordinary rapidity. We no longer live at home as they say in the south. Our table is dependent on the distant grower, the distant manufac- turer The food problem is not a prob lem of the home Or even of the local tty. It is a. problem nation. wide.
 ''T41e transformation of the food in- dustry has been so rapid that abuses could not fail to creep into it. The when applied on large scale. New methods had to be devised. Under pressure of competition, these have not always been thoroughly tested. Thus trade practices have become establish ed that are hard to eradicate. It must be one of the duties of the department of agriculture to examine into all of these processes, to improve good ones and discover substitutes for the bad. It must must also be It's function to develop methods of utilizing by-pro- ducts and of using as food many things which are not now utilized
 Much work of this type already has been done in the department of agriculture but it is hoped to make this work the dominant note of the bureaus po1icy.''

DEMOCRATS ON
 BUDGET REFORM
 PLANS IN HOUSE

Washington. June 5-Reforns, de- signed to systeunatize the methods by which appropriation bills, sometimes running up to the billion dollar. mark, are framed and presented to the House, were taken up, today, at meeting of the House budget commit tee. Representative Underwood, the Democratic leader; Palmer of Penn sylvania, the Democratic caucus chair man; Fitzgerald of New York, chair man of the appropriations committee and Sher1ey, of Kentucky, one of the original budget reform advocates, had agreed to choose between the Fitzger- aid and Sherley plans of budget re- form. These are:
 Fitzgerald plan-Add to the mem benship of the appropriations commit tee the chairman of military, naval, foreign ard all other committees that report ppropriation bills so as to bring back to the appropriations com raittee the exclusive jurisdiction and power over appropria tions; enough minority mem bers to be added to pre- serve the political proportions of the committee to be prohibited from ap- propriating for anything not already authorized.
 Sher1ey plan-A budget committee to regulate. appropriations to consist Of the four men at the top of the mem bership list of the ways and means cornTnitte four at the top of the ap- propriations committee, two at the top of the rules committee and the chair man fof each of the other appropria- ton committees with one minority member from each of those commit tees The budget committee would report at the beginning of the session of Congress next December, the max mum that should be appropriated with a1lotn1ents to the star commit tees and the budget committee would have power to limit the total of au- thorizatione for appropriations

SPORTOGRAPHY
~O

Mr. O. B. M. Nelson, author of Flights Have Fit,'' fShooting Big Game in Central Park" and other thrilling tales of love and adventure, will pass his thirty-hrst milestone to- day. having been born in Copenhagen, Denmark, on June 5, 1882. MT. Nel- son, who is sometimes vulgarly refer red to as Bat used to be a fighter of renown, but that was long ago. Un- fortunately, Oscar Battling Matthew hasn't yet arrived at a realization of the fact that he is a has-been- But alas and alack for such vain hope they can't come back is still the dope. For fleet is glory, and must wane for cen the gory, durable Dane, Forsaking the pleasant pastime of pIucking posies in the field of fancy, and returning to the stern realizes of life, Bat is all through as a box CT, and should henceforth content himself with the joys of literary crea- ton and the clipping of coupons. He has two tin ears, and that is enough for any gentleman who wears a dress suit and seeks to move in good socie- ty.
 MT Nelson's domestic difficulties, following his marriage with Miss Fay King, a Denver newspaper cartoonist, are said to be satisfactorily settled, and there is a shrewd suspicion that most of them never happened, but were mere press agent pipe dreams. It is now reported that Mrs. Nelson has insisted that her husband leave the ring, and forever, and even the Batt1ers most devoted admirers will hope it is true.
 The condemnations of boxers and boxing that have issued from some quarters since Jack Johnson's convic- tion have aroused the ire of Author Nelson, and he immediately hammer ed out the following on his trusty typewriter:
 f'No profession should be condemn ed for the sins of one man. All occu- pations have produced men who have discredited them. Johnson would have been a degenerate had he never seen a, boxing glove. Boxers regard ed his winning of the worlds title as a disgrace and a source of danger to the profession. No boxer can live a life of vice and succeed. He must be the most clean living man in his com munity. I am proud to say that I have never tasted liquor, tobacco or a drug in my life. The boxer cannot succeed if he is immoral or vicious The boxers themselves outIawed John son long before he was tried and con victed.'

SENATE CUT OUT
 GIVING OF GIFTS

Hartford, June 1.-The opinion of the attorney general, given after the 1913 session, when the Senate voted away the desks and chairs in the old Sem ate chamber after being told by the Capitol officials that the furniture would go into nook upsrairs as a lot of useless equipment, was recognized, yesterday. A resolution was introdlc- ed to give the messengers and door keepers the leather chairs which they used. Senator Hooker protested that this would be highly improper in view of the attorney generals opinion and the resolution was withdrawn. Just before that the resolution had gone through against his protests that he did not want them, giving to the lieu tenant governor the block and gavel Both are scared by use and would not be used again. In past sessions, the Senate has usually given the pre- siding officer his chair and the clerk his desk and chair. This time, the Senate cut out gifts of all property and all gratuities.

NEW WAR CRAFT
 AS MOTHER. SHIP
 FOR SUBMARINES

Washington, June 5PIans for the submarine tender Bushnell made pub- lie by the navy, today, disclose the fact that the vessel not only is to be an entirely new type in the navy but will be altogether unique as a war craft The contract for the construc- ton of the Bushnell was awarded to a shipbuiIding concern in Seattle, Wash Her cost will be close to $1,- coo, 900 and she is to be completed with in 21 month@
 The Bushnell is designed as a mother ship for a squadron of sub- marines and many roomy staterooms will be provided for the officers and crews of the submarines when they are not actually cruising. Powerful hoisting apparatus will be installed with which a submarine damaged or sunk can speedily be lifted to the sur face Of the sea and a towing machine will enable the mother boat to tow i've of her brood at one time. The little fleet will be independent of a home station, for a well equipped ma chine shop aboard the Bushnell will permit of speedy repairs while capaci- ous tanks are to be installed to carry sufficient oil and gasoline to supply the submarines for many weeks
 The Bushnell herself will be driven by a single screw turned by turbine engines. Her displacement will be 2.5OO tons and with a battery of four ffve-inch rapid fire guns and a torpedo tube she will be able to protect her charges from torpedo boats and de- stroyers-

One of the most satisfactory results of the recent nineteen weeks suffrage campaign which came to an end in Stamford on May 18th, has been the enlistment of new suffrage workers.

After nine years of active use the busy little fountain at the Hind1e Pharmacy has been replaced by an all onyx and marble affair which of its kind is the most complete sani- tary fountain in Connecticut. It is arranged in two units with a milk pump and brick cream freezer in the centre. It can be operated by two soda men so that neither interferes with the work of the other,y ensuring rapid service, which is quite necessary, located as the store is in the busy sec ton. It certainly shows progressive ness on the part of the managem ent of this popular drug store to put in such a beautiful service. MT.
