MUNICIPAL SANITATION
DISCUSSED BY DR.. RUSH
MEMBER OF THE FACULTY OF
CARNEGIE TECH ADDRESSES
WOMAN'S CLUB CIVIC
DEPARTMENT.
Declares That Impure Milk and Water
Supply Are Worst Germ Carriers
Mr. Ketchum Speaks.

An impure water and milk supply
is more apt TO carry disease germs
than the ordinary house fly, declared
DR.. Rush Of Carnegie Tech, Pitts
| burgh, during the course of his ad-
dress before the civic department of
the Womans club of Wheeling at the
Windsor hotel yesterday. Admitting
that the fly does carry germs TO a
great extent, DR.. Rush said that an
impure milk and water supply was
more often the cause Of an epidemic
of disease.
Attaining and keeping a good wa
ter supply, cleaning that which is
most essential to life, should be one
of the objects of citys board Of
health" he said. The milk supply
should also be given attention. Clean
| ing out streets, eliminating the smoke
nuisance come under the head Of civic
pride. They could be eliminated at a
slight expense if every one would
cooperate All these things come
under the head of municipal SANTA
ton. the speaker continued.
Our horrors Of the garbage and
sewer gas are unfounded," he said
The disease germ is respectable and
is more likely to be found in those
things which are essential TO our life,
|
and sewer are breeders Of the disease
germ, but they are not as infectious
as the milk and water supply"
The board of health of our cities
of the present time is much better
than it was ten years ago, he said.
1t was at one time political dumping
ground, thing that made them in
efficient.
Contaaion Through Contact.
DR.. Rush said that there is more
contagion in personal contact. One
person might be a carrier Of disease
germs, he said, and coming into con-
tact with another in the street car or
upon the streets impart the germ TO
that person. THE spread of he dis
ease germs Is no through clothing, but
through sputum, or possibly the carrier
might cough in your face, dropping Il
germ upon your lips" he added
The speaker said he would rather
use the old public drinking cup than
to drink from fountain following Il
person who has touched his lips to
the bulb. Experiments, he said that
had been conducted show that for
thirty minutes the bulb remains in
| fected.
Chas. NJ. ketchum, general manager
Of the Wheeling Commercial associa.
ton, was present and delivered short
address preceding that of DR.. Rush.

Diplomatic Negotiations With
Mexico Will Now Be Resumed

ances that the two governments had
reached the stage where they would
not find it necessary, to call upon the
friendly services of their neighbor
states.
May Not Reply.
It is not known whether a formal
reply to General Carranzas note iS
contemplated. Diplomatic usage does
not call for one, and many officials
feel that more can be accomplished
through informal discussion between
Mr.. Arredondo and Counsellor Pork,
who will act as secretary in Mr..
Lansing's absence. 1t is understood
Mr.. Arredondo plans to call at the
department to say goodbye to Secre-
tary Lansing before the latter's de
parture. Probably the. preliminary
steps necessary for the inauguration
of the informal discussion will Oe
taken then.

Mr.. Boyd says he was driving slowly
al the time the motorcycle struck his
car. The smaller machine was badly
