MAY DROP SHIP BILL.
Won't Press Measure ~ Private
CAPITAL Buys Ships.

wAaHINGroS, Aug. 22-The Wilson Ad-
ministration will abandon Its plan for
a Government owned merchant marine II
within the next month or two private
capital shows a disposition to purchase
ships enough TO meet the needs OF this
countrys transatlantic commerce.
The plan for creating "A Government
controlled company to operate n system
OF freight steamers between this country
and Europe and South America had been
considered only AS an emergency measure
when II seemed improbable that Amerl.
can capital would enter the transportation
field under conditions now existing.
1t was learned to-day that President
Wilson evolved his plan for purchasing
ships upon demands made by capitalists
who were considering buying ships which
the Administration was unwilling TO APP
prove The President was willing that tho
Government should undertake war risk
assurances. the restrictions against for
eign built ships should be removed AMI
even that certain changes in the navi-
CATION laws be made but he baked at
the demand of capitalists that the Gov
eminent become responsible for the bonds
OF corporations formed to participate in
the transoceanic trade. 1t was on the
rejection OF this last demand that the
President called Congress leaders into
conference at the White House and dis
closed to them his plan for an emergency
merchant marine.
Pending the receipt of evidence that
american capital intends to furnish ali
the ships that may be needed, the Admin
istration VIII go steadily forward with In.

line OF Government ships and will press

RATH DECLARES
SUMMER CAMP
GREAT SUCCESS

Mothers and children, the former

from HonoIuius- tenemeuts are enjoy
ing life to the limit, according TO
Readworker james 4. Rath OF the Pa
lama Settlement. whe returned TO the
city from the fresh air camp at Kai-
Papau yesterday afternoon.
Mr. Rath, who fathered the move
ment, returned from the camp in an
exceedingly happy frame OF mind from
the fact that NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. new
feature Of the settlements work at
last is well under way and is proving
a remarkably lusty youngster.
It's a go. ali right" smiled the
headworker this morning. 1T IS prov
ing even greater success than | anti
cipated If we can be assured OF the
funds, We are going to make It an an.
nual feature
According to Mr.. Rath, the past two
weeks have resolved into a wonderful
something fer the tenement mothers
and children. Away from the heat
and dust of Honolulu and cut amid
green fields and with the surf tapping
en- the sand close by, the little party
has enjoyed itself TO the limit. Cues
tioning by the nurse in charge brought
cut the facts that il is the first time
that the majority of the mothers and
their children had had vacation.
Some of them did not know the mean
ing Of the word Many of the chill
dren on the trip TO the camping
No ~ 10 rof
way ~"
The life in the camp, however, is
not a continuous round of pleasure,
and yet, looking at 1t from another
standpoint, it is The mothers cook
Their own meals rand attend to the
little Homework of their respective
tents. But there is a great deal of
difference between house work in
spotless tent and house work in a
stuffy little back room in a tenement
Then, too, the mothers are learning
something about which, perhaps, they
never before gave moments
thought They are learning how to
take care of their children; how TO
ward off disease; how to prepare sim
pie meals, and the value of different
foods. The nurse and the physician
In charge constantly are dropping lit
tie hints as to how certain things
should be done, and each hint is
lesson in itself one to which the
mothers, and even the children, pay
the carefullest attention. .
Summing it all up, the tenement
mothers and their children are heart:
lily enjoying the vacation; they are
having the time of their lives, as
Mr.. Rath puts it. When the simple
household duties are finished, they
roam the fields, swim in the ocean,
and even take long tramps into the
hills. 1t is typical fresh air camp,
and will become a permanent feature
of the settlements work If the ne.
cessary funds to continue it may be
secured. liz H..

return Monday morning, and another
party, consisting of 4: mothers and
children, viii leave Honolulu to take

hospital, and Miss C. Kemp, a settle

a fact. There are exceptions to all
rules and this seems to be one, as
there are several places in this coun-
ty where cholera has existed for two
years in succession and with the
whole sale loss suffered here last
year, it is not policy to let the mat
ter go on the assumption, that we
will have no cholera this year be-
cause we did have it last year.
Cure Absolutely Unknown
A cure for hog cholera is an un-
known quantity so far. Hog Cholera
serum is past the experimental stage
and when used properly is the one
reliable preventative for hog cholera.
This does not mean, however, that
hog cholera serum is going to be a
curall for all stages of the disease
,and will stamp it out permanently.
Sanitation Is Necessary
Sanitation is absolutely necessary
along with the serum and it must be
practiced If the disease is to be con-
trolled. A combination of the proper
use of serum and the practice of good
sanitary measures such as, burying
dead hogs, cleaning up and burning
all litter around pens where hogs
have died of cholera, etc., are two
things, that while they are no, heic
up as measures that are going tc
stamp out cholera are things that

(By J. E. Nelly

During the past year the hog chol-
era scourge in Minnesota caused a
loss of many thousand dollars to the
owners and raisers of hogs Redwood
County came in for it's share of this
loss, suffering perhaps more than any
other county in the state. With such
a wholesale outbreak over the en-
tire country there is bound to be
many places where the germs which
cause the disease have lived over,
and are again waiting for favorable
conditions to. start work.
1t is a we'll known fact that hog
cholera is a contagious disease of
the worst kind. 1t may be spread
by innumerable different agencies;
such as crows, pigeons, sparrows
dogs, cats or any other animal that
goes about from place to place, scav
angling on anything that is obtain
able. -

Find Centers of Infection

Ia order for the disease to be spread
however, there must be centers of
infection; that is places where there
are live germs present to be carried
about. These centers of infection are
the ones that must be isolated if the
disease is going to be kept under
control.
1t is common saying that when
we have cholera one year we do not
have it again for a number of years"
