Ralph Moores this morning issued the

character of the work which is being
done at present by the special com
mittee chosen by the Commercial club
to start the swat-the-fly campaign. The
following are details Of the census on
the breeding places Of flies in Salem
and reasons for the census:
The fly breeds only in filth A clean
town is a flyless town. If every pos
sible breeding place is properly cleaned
once week, there can be no increase
in the number of flies.
A committee of 20 high school young
men working under direction of the
committee on fly campaign Of the Salem
Commercial club, on Saturday, March
IA, canvassed the town and recorded
all places coming under their observa-
tion. The information was placed upon
cards which have been filed in card

1t is hoped that the facts as re-
vealed by the census will result in q
general cleaning up of places needing
attention. Later, the card index will
be placed in the hands Of the health
officer of the city.
Facts Ascertained
The following information was
gained from the census;.
One thousand one hundred and
seventy-seven places were noticed
which afford ideal breeding places fol
house flies.
There were 332 uncovered manure
piles noted within the city limits
Horse manure is the favorite breeding
place of the fly.
There were 205 water closets uncon
nected with the sewer noted. II is from
human excreta that the fly often car
ries the germs Of typhoid, diaorrhea and
other diseases to people.
There were 46 uncovered garbag.

Many of these are extremely unsanitary
All were noted upon the cards and II

There were 1872 rubbish dumps ant
piles noted within the limits Of the
city. Unless cleaned away these will
furnish breeding places for millions Of
flies.
There were 1923 cow and CHECKER
yards noted within the city limits. Som,
Of these are well kept while other
offer attractive breeding places fo
flies. Such places must be thoroughly
cleaned every week if they are no
to afford breeding places for flies.
There were 50 unsanitary spots no

Washington, D. c., May 13.-
The United States has no inten-
ton of retaining possession of
Lobos Island, but the navy de
partment insists that this coun-
try cannot surrender it howev-
er, as the Mexicans will not a.
gree to keep the light burning.
This is the last word sent to
lHuerta through mediators. The
dictator will have to decide
whether the explanation is suffi-
Icient or whether he will with
draw from participation in the
mediation council. However, all
of the ENJOYS believe that Huer-
Ia will accept.
The mediators have notified
Huerta that unless he can show
that the Americans fOrclbly e.
jected the light keepers this
Icontention of American occupan-
cy as an act of aggression will be
held to be without foundation.
1t is known here that Huerta's
representatives before the peace
mediators are instructed to OPP
pose any plan that does not give
him a voice in the entire matter,
even should he agree to quit and
step down, it is known that the
dictator will insist that he be
allowed to name his successor.
