SANITATION RULES MADE BY
STATE BOARD OF HEALTH
FOR SUMMER RESORTS.
GARBAGE MUST BE BURIED
Workmen's Compensation Act Has
Stood All Legal Tests and VIII Con-
tinue to Remain In Force for
Many Years.
tBy Gurd M. Hayes.l

Lansing-In an effort to provide
proper sanitation at the various sum-
mer resorts in Michigan, the state
board Of health has issued rules and
regulations to be observed by cot
tagers and other visitors and local
boards of health are being ordered
10 see to it's that they are enforced.
Garbage must not be thrown into
the lake." says the state board Of
health. "A garbage can or barrel
with fly proof cover should be used
at each cottage. The contents should
be removed two or three times a
week and buried at least one foot un-
der ground. No pits, into which gar
bage is being dumped, will be toler-
ated, unless each quantity of garbage
is Immediately covered with at least
three inches of earth. The burning
of garbage in bonfres is so seldom
effective that 1t is not to be toler-
ated.
Throwing tin cans, bottles, or other
rubbage or refuse on the beach or
on the grounds is prohibited. A COW
cred barrel or box should be placed
at the rear of each cottage for re-
ceiving such refuse, which should be
removed to some suitable place and
buried as often as may be found ne
cessary.
Cleaning fish upon the beach is
strictly prohibited. 1t should be done
back and away from the cottage and
the refuse Immediately buried. Refuse
from lunch counters, lemonade stands.
pavilions, and other concessions must
be treated as garbage and immediate
ly buried. Throwing refuse of any
kind into the lake is strictly forbid
den.
The empUing of drains or sewers
from sinks, toilets, closets, etc, into
the lake is strictly forbidden.
THE relation which insanitary con.
ditions bear to the breeding Of flies
should be carefully considered and no
material in which flies have an op-
portunity to breed, should be exposed.
Violations of these regulations will
give rise TO the establishment OF nu-
isances which are detrimental to pub
lie health, and violators will be sub
iect to the law relating to the main
tennance of nuisances."

According to officials of the state
game warden's department the open
ing of the bass season, Wednesday,
at midnight, was accompanied by but
few violations of the law. The depu-
ties in nearly all parts of the state
have been heard from, and the reports
all are that the fishermen waited un-
til the allotted time and did not catch
the fish too small.
This simply shows said Chief
Clerk Charles Hoyt, that fishermen
are becoming educated to the laws
and have learned that insofar as pos
sible we will make them obey them.
The time was when we approached
the opening Of trout or bass season
with fear and trembling. We knew
there would be a lot of violations. y

Although the workingmens COM
pensation law passed at the special
session of the legislature in 1912 has
been attacked from every conceivable
angle, it has stood the test Of the
courts, and as it is considered highly
improbable that it will ever be re-
pealed, this important measure will
be part of the statute law of Mich.
igan for many years to come.
In the decision of the supreme court
rendered recently, the section of the
statute applying to municipalities Is
not passed upon. This particular sec
ton of the law was not before the
court for consideration. The statute
was attacked on general grounds OF
unconstitutionality.
1t was alleged by those who were
intent upon having the bill declared
unconstitutional that it conferred ju.
dicial powers upon the industrial ac-
cident board, that the title of the bill
does not cover the body of the act
and that it discriminates against
domestic. farm and casual employees
and that it is class legislation. It
was also claimed that 1t deprives a
parent of right of action for injury
to his child and that ii deprives an
injured employe of the right to be re-
presented by an attorney or agent of
his choice in making all attorney fees
subject to the regulation of the in
dustrial accident board.
Similar claims have been made by
opponents OF the measure ever since
ii was enacted into law at the special
session three years ago. At the pres.
ent time there are $4,000 employees
of labor In Michigan operating under
the provisions OF this law. More than
half a million employees are protected
under this statute and litigation along
the lines of personal injury causes has
been materially reduced.
At the last session of the legislature
attempts were made to make several
amendments TO that the law would
be improved to considerable extent
but no changes of any sort were
made. The legislature did grant the
board the right to appoint two deputy
commissioners but all other proposed
amendments were killed.
AS the result of a new law passed
at the last session of the legislature
the chief of each city fire department
the president of each village and the
supervisor of each township In which
| now fire departments exist is required
to report each fire TO the state Or,
marshal three days after 1t occurs.
Under the new law the state will
pay twenty-five cents for each report

The special commit.l e appointed
by the state board of agriculture to
find successor to President ]. l..
Snyder, who rendered his resignation
a year ago with the request that 1t
take effect at the close of the present
school year, is having considerably
difficulty in finding a desirable man to
take his place.
Although the resignation was pre-
Sented more than a year ago 1t has
never been acted upon. Some of the
members of the board say that in due
time President Snyder's successor
will be named and IL no one is found
within q few weeks it would not be
surprising IL the board would accept
President Snyder's resignation and
place one OF the faculty in charge
during the next school year.
Attorney General Fellows says that
where a special meeting of a board
of supervisors is called by q county
clerk OF which sufficient notice Is not
given to all the members, that the
meeting is not valid unless attended
by each member. Fellows contends
that pay for such meetings may be
allowed where members proceeded to
attend In good faith.

Effect of EmbarSo on Arms.

There is a catchy rcasonableness about the Ger
man American argument that our neutrality is I'M
real unless we forbid the export of arms. Germany
having lost command OF the sea, American traffic
in war supplies helps the allies. If the position
were reversed our neutrality would still be inn
pugned, but not by the German-Americans. and we
should be written down the partner of "Teu-
tonic" militarism
Partisans aside there is we believe, growing
body of pacifist opinion. represented by men Of
the ability and character of DIR. Edward Devnc,
which insists that American manufacturers are
"capitalizing carnage" making profits out of muir
der and that in decency and in humanity this
ton ought to have nothing to do with the Euro
pcan crime.
But what would be the consequences Of so pure
stand? 1t would stop the war" we are told, but
and the richest part OF France. And the lesson to
England and France? 1t would be that militarsm
pays that God is the side of the big ready bat
talions that nation which Dreams plans and or
eanizes war can impose its will the less military
nations.
Such an embargo would be regarded by the
allies as the most desperate trcachery, an arb-
trary reversal Of all international law, not in time
of peace. but in the midst Of terrible crisis We
should by the embargo which Bartholdt and others
propose, neutralize at one stroke a large part of

good blockade in the Atlantic. And il ever we
ourselves faced lifc-and death struggle, we
