UNCLE SAM TELLS EXACTLY
 HOW UNCLEAN THE FLY Is

 Special to Gateway by United Press)
 WASHINGTON, July l.-The or dinary house fly carries about with him, recent government experiments show, an amount of uncleanIiness equal to 2 to per cent of his weight
 If the average man were so unclean as that, he would have on his body four pounds of filth.
 A COW or horse as dirty as fly would carry 20 to 25 pounds. The fly does not weigh much, but it can har- bor millions of disease-giving germs. As a matter of fact, the dirt on fly is about one-half bacteria-bacteria of many kinds, large and small, thick and thin, long and short.
 If, out of its abundance of bacteria the fly deposits a typhoid germ in a can of milk, there is every likelihood that in short time there will be enough typhoid germs in that milk to make it a dangerous, frequently fatal, poison.
 In the experiments in this subject conducted by the Department of Agricultural, number of flies were caught and washed in sterile, distilled water Uncleanliness to the amount of from two to three percent of the flies weight settled at the bottom of the tubes, and of this about half was bacteria.
 In addition there remained in solu- ton in the water enough dirt to dis color it.
 The fly can and does carry the germs of tuberculosis.
 Flies which had been allowed access to animals suffering from this disease were caught and washed in sterile water.
 Inoculation tests from them subse- quently proved that they bore living, virulent tubercle bacilli.

lustrayes the inability of the police to cope with the situation:
 "Charlcs L. Rockingham, former county commissioner, was named Oy Mayor Gill Tuesday noon to succeed Chief of Police Louis M. Lang, whose resignation the mayor had demanded in a letter written earlier in the day"
 Mayor Gill made the following statement:
 "Mr. Rockingham is thoroughly familiar with the liquor situation in Seattle, and l believe he can help me clear up that problem"
 "The one thing think the police department ought to do is to stop bootIegging in Seattle" Charles Rockingham said after his appoint ment as chief.
 Every man, woman and child in the city knows that it is a simple matter to get liquor. l think some thing can surely be done by the police department to stop the illegal trade. The drug stores ought not to get away with the stuff they are pulling now"
 Donald B. Olson, superintendent of the Monroe state reformatory was offered the position Monday afternoon but did not accept it.

 While Deputy Prosecutor T. H. Patterson and his wife were absent Monday evening miscreants lombard ed their home, PIG Crockett street.
 Eggs were used as missiIes-yery old eggs, with unhappy disturbing odors.
 They were plastered with accuracy over the front door and veranda, ac- cording to Patterson. This evidently not satisfying the bombarders, the door was opened and a few eggs were tossed into the hallway.
 "Patterson was especially detailed by Prosecutor Lundin to handle liquor cases several weeks ago."
