ANIMAL INDUSTRY
BUREAU is ATTACKED
AS UNTRUSTWoRTHY
Dairymen Criticize Methods Of Deal
ing With Foot and Mouth
Epidemic

Chicago, Sept. GA committee
appointed by the National Dairy coun
Gil met here today and formulated a
report on the foot and mouth cpl
demic in the United States in 1914
and 1915, charging that official bod
les are not equipped with competent
men to deal with the situation. The
report said:
Although the deplorable fact that
more than two months elapsed be-
tween the time of the outbreak of
the disease in 1914 and its official re-
cognition may be accounted for by
a sense of security born of long free
dom from the disease, and by sub
sequent appropriateness to deal with
it in an epidemic form, precipitating
upon the country thereby an enor-
mously costly loss, the council still
maintains that this is not an ade-
quate excuse.
There is grave defect in the or
ganization of the national bureau of
animal industry, in the organization
| of state live stock sanitary boards
and in the coordination and the CO.
relation OF these various official for
ces.
1.-THE bureau of animal industry and
the local boards are not equipped
with competent men, veterinarians
and others to deal with the situation
Lack OF experience and lack Of fun
damental training combined render
this branch of the service very un
trustworthy.
"The dairy council, in connection
with the other national organizations
rejecting the thought and interest OF
the country, is prepared to demand
and to press, II necessary, through
congressional action. thorough reor
ganization of the bureau OF ANNA
industry and in particular the crea
ton of an executive chief in tha
bureau, who shall be the stronges
and most available stockman L
whom the veterinary forces shall b.
subordinate and responsible. "

DENoUNcES INDUSTRIAL
SSIoN'S REPORT

San Francisco, Sept. 20.-Publica-
tion of the report OF the commission
on industrial relations was deplored
today and governmental regulation of
business was announced as a prin-
cipal topic before the convention by
Carl Scholz of Chicago in his annu-
al address as president of the Am
erican Mining congress at the open
ing of the eighteenth annual session.
1T is not our belief" Mr.. Scholz
said, that the report of the commits
sion on industrial relations, as re-
Gently published, was expressive.
fairly OF the facts considered nor of
any attitude which our government
can take. It's publication as an Off
cial document can work only mischief
in consequence it is deplored."
Government regulation of business
Mr.. Scholz said, would be discussed
before the convention by many men
OF prominence.
1T is evident" he said, that we are
to be a government by commission;
whether this is to meet our complex
needs is one of the grave questions
OF the hour"
A letter OF greeting from President
Wilson was read at the opening of
the congress.

so that It might be used in the dry
season, the reclamation Of arid and
swamp lands, the development of wa
ter power and the standardizing of
rivers for navigation.
"All Of this must be accomplished
through cooperation between the ma
ton and the states" asserted Sena-
tor Newlands, "by means Of a COM
mission organized for that purpose"
Introducing Mr.. Herrick, Governor
Hiram w. Johnson said the entire
United States owed him debt Of
gratitude for his interest in the panic
stricken Americans who We're in Eu-
rope and for the work he had done
in assisting those in distress. Mr..
Herrick spoke on Reclamation of the
Public Domain.
Among representatives OF foreign
countries who addressed the con-
gress was Kai Tu Shan, Chinese min
/ lister to the United States, who re-
viewed the irrigation progress made
by China and who brought good
word to the Americans engaged in
the same work. Walter Scott, prime
minister of the province Of Saskatch.
evan, told what Canada had done and
was doing in the irrigation line.

Attack Ferris
Leasing Plan
Investment Bankers Disapprove Bill
Passed by House at Last
Session

Denver, Sept. 90. -Disapproval of
the Ferris bill as passed by the
House and reported by the Senate
committee, providing for government
lease and regulation of waterpower
sites on public lands in the west was
contained in a resolution adopted by
the convention of the Investment
Bankers association of America here
today. This disapproval was made
a part of the report of the committee
on public service corporations pre-
scented by John e. Oldham of Bos-
ton.
The resolution recites that the Fer
ris bill as it passed the House, re-
quired the grantee to give the gov
eminent an option on Its property,
but On terms which deprived any APP
probation in land values and depriv-
ed the company of any investment
which it might have made in so call
ed intangible elements-which are re-
cognized by the courts and public SER
vice commissions as legitimate and
essential"
"a careful consideration of this
bill leads us to the conclusion" says
the report, that it cannot and will
not accomplish the expressed purpose
Of its sponsors, but that it will dis
courage, instead Of promote the de-
ve!opment of waterpowers on public
domain. We believe 1t would be
both unwise and unsafe for capital
to invest in such enterprises under
the terms of the bill"
Hearty support" for the national
administration in the development of
complete program for national de-
tense was pledged by the adoption of
a resolution presented by Allen G.
Hoyt Of New York. The resolution
urges employers to give employees

Speaking on the subject of railroad
bonds, John Il. Blunt, Jr., of Chica.
go, attributed the present troubles

failure to receive authority to in.

increased cost OF service.
Confidence, in the ability of Euro

indebtedness resulting from the wal
was expressed by A. b. Leach OF
New York president, in his annual
address. This, he said, must be &C
complished by long period of rigiC
economy and high taxation by Euro

opinion that this gradual readjust

REFRAIN FROM
PENNANI TALK
Moran Had Iron-clad Rule in
Regards to World Series
and Title Chatter.
JINXES ANDLUCKY PIECES

Pat Moran made it an iron-clad rule
throughout the 1915 season that hi.
men must refrain from pennant tall
and world series thoughts.
But on several occasions he caught
some of his men breaking the rules
He rebuked them. The second time
he caught two of his men talking in
undertones as to what we'll do when
get a crack at those Red SOX MO-
ran cut in with:
The next time 1 catch you or any
one else on this club saying one word
about pennants or world series it'll
cost you $50.
In my experience as ball player
| found that dreaming pennant dreams
detracted from the playing skill of
the men," said Moran. "A team that
is in hard fight must concentrate
its whole physical and mental energy
on each individual game. That's the
only way in which games are won.
Play the game of the present-let the
future take care of itself"
Moran, usually quiet and even tenn
pered, and in no way superstitious, lost
control of his temper the day before
the PhillieS started on their last West
ern swing.
Just before the game began on the
Phillies' diamond. Moran and the play
erS noticed man moving around
among the stands and the open spaces.
doing a lot of measuring. The man
was Jim Foster. who had built the
stands and who was doing the meas
uring so he could decide upon how
many extra seats il would be possible
10 build for the world series crowd.
That fellow ought to get out of this
feld-and get out quick" snapped Moran
His influence here is bad. 1t will get
the players into believing they have
the pennant cinched when they haven't.
That fellow could just as well have
postponed his measuring job for few
days and then we'd have been away and
he could have had the field to himself.
Along about September l. when the
dopesters began announcing that 'the
Phillics barring accidents. ought to
win Moran began to be bombarded
with letters from fans all over the
country who offered 10 sell him jinX
chasers and lucky pieces of all kinds.
The prize letter. remarked Pat,
came from a fellow up in Hamilton,
Ont He said he had a penny that had
won fortunes for its owners, but saved
people from railway and steamships
wrecks and had accomplished many other
wonderful things. That fellow offered
me the penny for $500 upon the con-
dition that l was to give him another
$50 If we won the world series.
Another writer offered to Moran, "for
the moderate sum of s10O'' a rabbits
foot that had unusual charms" The
owner of the foot said it was the left
hind foot. that il had belonged to
rabbit that was shot in graveyard at
night while sleeping on the freshly made
grave of a negro voodoo doctor.
"A charm with such a history can
not fail to bring pennant and a world
series to you," declared the writer.
But Moran decided he'd take chance
on the pennant and the world series
without seeking the aid of charms.

FORTUNE SMILES ON
DUGEY, OF PHILLIES

Two years major Lacquer and twice

and record which earns for him the
distinction Of being the very luckiest
youth that ever broke into baseball

lucky. but Dugey has outlucked them
and outlucked every man that ever
walked onto a ball field.
Dugey was 10 years old when he
Joined the Braves last spring He
showed nothing startling in a base
ball way-but he was earnest and
hardworking. So Stallings, instead of
sending him back to the Waco (Texas)
Club. where he played in 1913, decided
to let him linger around.
Dugey's 1914 record shows that he
hit for 1913 in fifty-eight games with
the Braves. His fielding average was
under 300. Yet the Dugey luck kept
him on the Braves roster right through
the 1914 season. and Dugey got as big
slice of the world series melon as did
Hank Gowdy and the other Boston he
roes. although Dugey didn't play in
any one of the four games.
In the winter of 191i-1915 Stallings
put through a trade with the Phillies,

10 unload excess baggage on the Phil
lies. He gave them Dugey as the Ito
boot part of the bargain.
Dugey wasn't keen about going to
the Phillies. Why should he have
been: The Braves looked good to re-
peat in the world series and the Phil
lies-well. they looked good enough to
push the bottom out of the National
League. But with Dugey it was a case
of go to the Phillies or back to the
minors.
