TBr mayor of Colorado Springs
said recently to the delegates of the
American Pubhc lIealIh Associa-
tion that the problems of public
health are even more vital than
those of individual health. Appre
cis,ion of this fact comes slowly.
Money to purchase public health is
given grudinely by those IN charge
of the public purse. ST. Louis, the
fourth city in the United States in
both population and manufactures,
spends annually only SIoo, 600 on
its health department, whereas il
spends 81, oco, 900 annually on its
police department, twenty times the
amount sPent for the promotion OF
public health. Larger appropria-
sfons for health purposes will only
follow the creation of public senti-
ment demanding them, and IN ac
complIshing this the newspapers
must play the chief role.

eAN DIEGO, May 0~-Wfth fifteen Of
the twenty four governors OF southern
states having indorsed the ean-to-
ocean route Of the National Southern
Highway association, which will have
its terminus at San Diego, Col. Dell M.
Potter OF Clifton, Ariz., president Of the
association, reported to San Diego yes
terday by telegraph that the organiza-
ton work OF the association is making
good progress. Colonel Potter, who has
been identified with the good roads
movement for more than six years, is
in the south getting Endorsement Of the
associations plans from Influential men.
The fifteen southern governors who in
dorsed the route have been made state
vice-presidents of the association.
While colonel Potter is below the
Mason and Dixon line obtaining that
Endorsement, which will mean the
building Of the road, San Diegans are
not forgetting the important part they
must play to insure the construction
Of this great highway.
A meeting of good roads enthusiasts
was held yesterday at the chamber Of
commerce and plans were outlined for
raising $4,000 balance Of an $4,000
fund which San Diego subscribed to
be used In the organization work.
Present at the meeting were F. w.
Jackson, C. w. Fox, Gordon Decker,
George L. Barney, Percy II. Goodwin,
Admiral H. N. Manney. M. +. Heller, j.
B. Starkey, F. w. Greer and John Burn
ham. All agreed that the rest Of the
fund should be raised without delay
and each consented to circulate a sub
scription list.
Beginning this morning every San
Diegan who shows interest in the
city's advancement will be visited and
asked to subscribe. Although San Di-
ego has within the last year subscribed
lliberally to funds for road building L
Is not expected that its citizens will
show any hesitancy in raising the bal
ance needed by the association.
| When the money is raised. Colonel
Potter is expected to come here and
begin trip over the route to the At
lantic coast. The run will be made by
automobile and will be for the purpose
Of logging the course. Along the
route Colonel Potter will continue the
Organization work.

STORE Quilted BY FLAMES

When J. B. Hanson: who owns
grocery and meat market at the cor
ner of Sixth and Minnesota, awoke
about a. IN. this morning, he
smelled smoke. Upon going down
stairs to Investigate, he found the

an overheated stove. He tried to
reach the telephone but could not.
Mr.. Hanson rushed up stairs where
his wife and four children were Sleep
ing. Two children were nearly over
come by smoke but revived as soon
as he had carried them to the fresh
air. The family went to the Blocker
hotel for lodging for the rest of the
night and were refused admittance
according to Mr.. Hanson's statement.
They were finally lodged at the
Challenge after Mrs. Smith had given
up her own apartments.
A passing stranger saw the blaze
and not knowing where the fire alarm
was located, ran to Nangle's store be-
fore he found policeman. The fire
bell was rung for, about five minutes.
BY the time the men arrived, the en-
tire lower part of the building was
a mass of flames and they were shoot
ing out into the street. It was found
that the hydrant at Fifth and Mime
esota was frozen. -:s-..-- -
The fire was extinguished before
the building collapsed. Mr.. Hanson
