But Hunters With Dogs Are Not Mo-
Tested in Maryland.

ming trips to nearby counties OF Mary
land because of the order of Gov.
Goldsborough putting stop to gun
ming in sections in which the foot ana
mouth disease was prevalent and pre-
venting the transportation of hunting
dogs from one place to another. In
answer to anxious inquiries as to the
conditions at this time, word has come
from Montgomery county this morning
that the ban has not been lifted.
If was stated. however. that county
officers and game wardens are not dis.
turbing gunners, and that hunters and
dogs are permitted throughout the
county the same a they were peiore
the foot and mouth disease caused
alarm.
Members of the Fox Hunters AS
ISOLATION communicated with Attorney
General Bryan at Annapolis and asked
his opinion upon the question. HIS
response. 1t is stated, was to the ef-
feet that the governors proclamation
was meant to affect only the sections
in which the disease was prevalent.
Acting upon the response OF the at
torney general of the state. 1t Is stat
ed. members of the association con-
Quoted their field trials and were not
molested. Their dogs were taken from
one place to another without question.
The foot and mouth disease has been
stamped out and there is not 4 single
case in the county, it is said. and 1t is
believed by residents of the nearby
counties of the state that enforcement
of the order terminated when the last
case of the disease was eliminated.

TO CENTRALIZE RELIEF WORK.
Former Ambassador Herrick Advises
Concentrated Effort in Europe.

Myron T. Herrick, former ambassador
to France, is urging comprehensive
plan to centralize the work of relief
for European war sufferers. He dis
cussed this plan with leaders of ma
tional affairs while in Washington, and
left last night for New York to take
1t up with business leaders there.
He proposes the formation of a CEN
trail committee to have general super
vision over the collection of funds for
the relief of European war sufferers.
He called at the White House yester-
day, and was guest of honor at a
luncheon given by Secretary Bryan.
The plan under contemplation is to
have the Chamber of Commerce of the
United states name q central COM
mittee, and then to ask President viii.
son to give his approval to the plan
The President recently refused to name
such committee himself, because he
believed the relief work should not be
of an official character.

It," she said.

That the science of homemakinr and
rearing children is as intricate and diff
ncuIt to learn as a technical profession
ana should be taught accordingly was
the statement of the speaker. That the

proved by. the fact that of the graduates

yesterday before the Senate committee
on Philippine Islands. which has under

for ultimate independence.
Mr.. Crosby recently returned from

subject of the future of the Islands
with the prominent Filipino citizens.

by. rs that naturalization of the is
lands would be impossible. Even be-
would be Impractical. For example. IL

tion Immediately would arise as to
what would be England's position rela :

dependence of the Philippines"
Would Include Definite Date.
Mr.. Crosby urged amendment of the
pending bill to include definite date
upon which independence for the Fill
pinos might be set, and in the pream-
BILE he would have it set forth that
independence should be established
when it became apparent that the peo-
pie were capable of maintaining an ef-
flcient government.
Mr.. Crosby said Gen. Aguinaldo had
told him that thoroughly American
form of government could not be es-
tablished In the Philippines lin hum

dos view that the government would
have to absorb the influences of $50
years of Spanish rule, the shorter pc
riod of American domination and also
recognize some of the influences of the
sons of the soil"
Mr.. Crosby was of the opinion that
it would not be many years before the
Filipfnos would be capable of main
tanning efficient self-government.
