LEPERS AT LARGE IN THE US
Constitute Serious Menace Unless the
Proper Steps are Taken, Senate
Health Com. Is Told.

Washington, Feb. 16 More than
five hundred lepers at large in the
United States constitute a menace of
serious possibilities unless proper
steps for segregation are taken, in the
opinion of physicians, nurses and 9th
ers who testified before the senate
health committee in support of a bill
to establish a national leperosarium
The witnesses agreed that the 800
persons under treatment in the coun-
trys' three state or municipal leper
asylums included less than one third
of the total afflicted. They declared
that the disease was spreading rapid
ly; that danger of a serious epidemic
was real. and that segregation was the
first demand in the campaign against
it.
1t was consensus of opinion among
those who testified that about fifty
lepers were at large in New York city,
eighty in Chicago and at least one or
two in eoch of the large cities through
out the country. They declared in al,
guing for a national asylum, that in
dividual victims were treated in many
instances by great inhumanity by To-
cal authorities.

not Be Sold in the State
After May I.

Des Moines, Feb. 16.-Fractional
strength lemon extract can not be
sold in Iowa after May l, according
to a ruling made today by the state

In order to give an opportunity to all
dealers handling these products to
clean up their stock the department
has set May l as the final date be.

al and that OF her son, appeared little
moved when the verdict was read.

ing the court room walked erect and
defiantly.

dered in the trial of Fred Meyer, son
of Mrs. Ida Meyer, at hir trial on
the same charge last December. Fred
