London, May 18.-Lord Witch
ener stated in the House of Com
mons today that the French and
British governments feel that the
Allied troops must be protected
from the poisonous gases hurled
at them by the Germans, by EN-.
pIoying similar methods. This
would remove the enormous and
unjustifiabIe advantage the Ger
mans hold, he said.
He stated that he wants 100000
more men. He said that the coun-
try soon would be in satisfac-
tory situation regarding ammuni-
ton.
What seems to be cabinet

there is friction between Winston

CLEAN TOWN WINNER
SOON TO Be KNOWN
HATTIESBURG'S ORIGINAL HIGH
GRADE WILL STAND, 1T is
SAID.

The winner in the cleanest town
contest, in which so Mississippi cities
and towns competed, has not yet been
announced, although the decision may
be reached in the next three weeks:
DR.. Willis VALLEY, state sanitary in
spector. began a three weeks inspec-
ton yesterday, and will visit those
towns in which the local gradings
were said to have been improper be-
cause of misinterpretations of the
rules. He also will visit the eight
cities having received the highest
grades.
Hattiesburg received grade of
nearly 90. 1t is known that Hatties-
burg is not included in the list in
which it is claimed that improper reg
ulations were used. The day that. DR..
Robert Donald, county health officer,
and the Rev. E. ]. Currie, superintend-
ent of county schools, completed their
inspection, DIR. VALLEY was in Hattiesi
burg. He made an inspection of the
greater part of the city, and declared
that the grading given by the two lo-
cal inspectors was perfectly fair.
"Hattiesburg will receive from my
hands a figure as large at least, as
that given by the local inspectors he
said. 'sIt is possible that | might in
crease the general average"
The winner of the contest will re-
ceive a $1,000 drinking fountain of
fered as prize by the State Board
of Health.

President Declares
America Wants No
Nations Property
Is GIVEN MIGHTY RECEPTION IN
NEW YORK WHERE He RE-
VIEWS ATLANTIC FLEET.

New York, May 1S.-"The inspiring
thing about America is that she asks
nothing for herself except what she
has right to ask for humanity itself.
We want no nations property; we
wish to question no nations honor;
we wish to stand selfishly in the way
of the development of no nation. 1t
is not pretention on our part to say
that we are privileged to stand for
what every nation would wish to
stand for, and speaking for those
things which all humanity would de-
sire"
This was the central theme in the
address delivered by President Wilson
in this city yesterday, following the
reviewing of the Americas mighty
armada. A reception such as has
probably never been accorded Pres
ident of the United States, was that
given Mr. Wilson on his arrival here,
and throughout the day. At the
luncheon served before the review,
the President said:
''Mr Mayor, Mr. Secretary, Admiral
Fletcher and Gentlemen of the fleet:
"This is not an occasion upon
which it seems to me it would be wise
for me to make many remarks, but |
would deprive myself of a great graft
fication if | did not express my pleas
ure at being here, gratitude for the
splendid reception which has been ac-
corded me as the representative of the
nation and my profound interest in
the navy of the United States.
''This is an interest with which l
was apparently born, for it began
when | was a youngster and has ripen-
ed with my knowledge of the affairs
and policies of the United States. |
thing it is a natural, instructive judg
ment of the people OF the United

power appropriately in an efficient
navy, and their interest is partly, l
believe, because that navy somehow
is expected to express their character,
not within our own borders where it's
character is understood, but outside
our border, where it is hoped we may
occasionally touch others with some
slight vision of what America stands
for.
when | think of the flag which
those ships carry, the only touch of
color about them, the only thing that
moves as if it had settled spirit in
it, in their solid structure, it seems to

Meridian, Miss, May 1S.-The big

The ambassador was given no inti-
nation of the feeling of the German
government. He was assured merely
that the subject would require consid-
Grafton by high officials, and that a
reply would be ready soon. AS the
press had not been permitted to pub.
lish the text of the note, the ambas'
sador is unable to report on the state

Fish For GrQUeLs
With Mud Bait in
Cfy,s Deep Well
MIX WATER AND DIRT AND PUMP
1T INTO "OLD FAITHFUL"
AND CATCH MANY.

1t looks like the men who are en-
gagged in cleaning "Old Faithful" the
well which formerly has supplied Hat
tiesburg with the principal part of its
water supply, but which recently went
on a strike, are doing lot of foolish
work over next to the city's pumping
station.
For instance, they are pumping hun
dreds of gallons of water each min
ute into the well, and hundreds of
of it, and then are mixing more mud
with the water and putting it right
back into the pipes.
But this is not so silly as it may
seem. In fact it is necessary. There
are thousands of little gravels and big
gravels in the bottom of the shaft,
and it is almost impossible to force
them to the top. 1t was decided to
try little mixture of mud to go along
with the water. This was done Sew
eral feet of mud were thrown back
into the shaft, and settled about thf-
gravel covered bottom. This stuck to
and small stones, and pretty soon both
mud and gravel came to the top and
were landed on the outside.
1t may require two or three more
days in which to remove all the gravel
and the mud from "Old Faithful"
