But There Are Still Epidemics
Prevalent at the National
Army Canfonments.
MORE MEASLES AT FUNSTON
But Meningitis Is On the Decline in
Eighty-Ninth Division-Many
Cases of Pneumonia.

Washington, Dec. 20.-Genera1 Inn
provement in health conditions in the
national guard division for the week
ending December Ia was reported to-
day by the division of field sanitation.
In the national army, however, there
was an increase in the total cases of
pneumonia, measles and meningitis
due to renewed outbreaks in a few of
the divisions.
with the exception of the Thirty
fourth, Thirty-fifth and Fortieth di-
Visions" said the report, "but few new
cases of measles are reported from
the national guard camps. Pneumo-
mia, following measles, is also rapidly
decreasing in all but three of the di-
visions in which measles has been cpl
demic." Those three divisions are the
Thirtieth, Thirty-fourth and Thirty
ninth. Meningitis has increased in
only the Thirtieth and Thirty-fifth
divisions
Measles on the Increase
Marked increases in measles is re-
ported in the Eighty-seventha and Nine
tieth national army divisions, with a
slight increase in the Eighty-ninth.
Pneumonia conditions in all divisions
except the Ninetieth improved in the
week, but seventy-seven new cases
were reported in that division, an in
crease of thirty-siX over last week.
There has been a marked increase in
meningitis in the Eighty-first Division,
but the epidemic in the Eighty-ninth
Division continues to decline.
Deaths for the week in the guard
division totaled 165, as against 100 the
week previously, and those in the ma
tional army 81 against IA the week
before. OF the guardsmen dying, 143
succumbed to pneumonia and II to
meningitis. In the national army there
were SO deaths from pneumonia and
Is from meningitis.
Fewer Pneumonia Cases.
There was a decrease of 12S cases
of pneumonia in the guard camps, the
total for the week being 294, against
423 the week previous. Cases of
measles decreased from 1888 the pre-
vious week to 1,058, and meningitis
from AZ to 80.

BEGIN STATE BOOZE FIGHTS

Chicago, Dec. 20.-Dry forces in Illi-
nois will center their fight for ratifi-
cation of the national prohibition
amendment on seeking to control the
regular legislature in 1919, rather than
seeking a special session, F. Scott Nc
Bride, state superintendent of the
Anti-Saloon League, announced today.
Last year the drys had a majority
in the senate, but lacked the house
by ten votes.
The Dry Chicago Federation is cir
culating petitions for a local option
vote in this city next April.
Milwaukee, Dec 20.-Wisconsin's
prohibition battle will be at the polls
in next November's general elections.
Both sides today expressed their con-
fidence of electing a majority in the
legislature. There is only very re-
mote chance that any action on the
prohibition amendment will be taken
at the special legislative session to be
called by Governor Philip next month.

HOOVER SCORES sLACKERs
Federal Food Admin strator Denounces
Persons Opposing Meat Conserva-
tion for Purposes of Gain.

Aroused by attempts on the part OF
interested persons to exploit the sale
of meat in opposition to the govern
ment's plans for winning the war,
Herbert Hoover, United States food
administrator, brands opposition to
the federal conservation plans as
comparable to opposition to the draft
Mr.. Hoover's statement on the sub
Eect is made in a telegram to DR.. H. J.
Waters, food administrator for Kansas.
Opposition to the plans for conser-
walton has been found here and there
in Kansas, as well as in other states.
One Kansas merchant, for example,
heads his newspaper advertisement,
"Meatless Day-What?" and goes on
to say, 1.-The country is full of cattle.
What is more plentiful with us than
beef? On Saturdays, instead of meat
less days we are going to establish
real meat days with bargains in
chunks, quantities, 1oins, rounds, any
thing to suit the trade Mr.. Hoover
says in his telegram:
Statements exploiting the sale of
meat and protesting against wheatless
and meatless days as unnecessary
sacrifice by the American public are
either malicious or emanate from per-
sonal interest obviously endeavoring
to raise the price of meat The re-
suits from meatless days have for the
first time created sufficient visible
supply Of meat to allow us to partially
comply with the quantities requested
by the allies for shipments during the
month of December. This should be
