4a>ne coufers wlth General Blue.

James A. Hayne, M. D., secretary
Of the state board Of health, went to
New York Saturday to meet with
the committee OF six, who will confer
with Surgeon General Rupert Blue,
relative to designating national san
itation policy under war conditions.
The conference will in effect federal
ize the state boards Of health. The
boards will revert to their former
policy Of state or local interest upon
the termination Of the war, but the
nationwide plan to unity the interests
and conform the efforts Of the state
boards will do much to standarize
the plans Of the various state units
and will mean the elimination OF much
conflict Of policy.
The members Of the committee are
among the foremost public health ex-
perts in the United States. II. M.
Biggs, chairman, is a resident Of New
York and has just returned from
France. where he went to study the
prevalence Of tuberculosis and meth
DDS to stay the plague under war con-
ditions. j. S. Fulton OF Maryland Is
another with nationwide reputation
for his progressive ideas as to the
conservation OF the public health and
control Of infectious diseases Re-
naming members are: S. G. Dixon,
Pennsylvania; w. A. Sawyer, Cali
fornia, and G. st. Clair Drake, ILL
nois. The conferences were to be held
at the Willard hotel in New York, be.
ginning April 80
In addition to the colse cooperation
OF the state and provincial boards
with the public health exigencies dur.
ing the war. plans and regulations
would be given immediate and nation.
wide dispatch. 1t is probable also that
supervision Of production Of medical
supplies will be incorporated in the
plan. along with the supervision Of the
health Of workers in industrial plants
and the taking Of a census OF the
medical. surgical. hospital and nursing
resources.

"FARM AND ARM" Is
BATTLE CRY OF ROOSEVELT

Chicago o.-"Farm and Arm!" With
this battle cry. Theodore Roosevelt
entered Chicago and in two stirring
speeches urged that every energy OF
the entire nation be directed toward
making the potential might of the Uni
ted States felt in the war against Ger
many. and he demanded that not an
hour be lost in dispatching troops to
the trenches. His first speech was
made at a luncheon at noon; his sec
ond at mass meeting in the i'm
mense amphitheater at the stock
yards.
He advocated universal training as
permanent policy; he advocated con.
scrlption, but he pleaded that he
should be allowed to recruit division
for immediate service with the Allies.
He was roundly applauded when he
urged that. during the war, the use
OF grain for the manufacture OF alco.
l'olic beverages be prohibited.
II want to get Americans into the
trenches Of France at the earliest pos.
sible moment to show our Allies that
we are as ready as they to shed our
blood for the cause OF democracy. I'd
go as second lieutenant" said Col.
Roosevelt "I'm willing to go in tho
train OF any competent officer who
/ may be selected. To get the divi,
sion there Ia the thing"
On his arrival Mr.. Roosevelt was
given reception reminiscent Of the
days when he was president.

Farmers Exempt.
Among more important amend
ments adopted in the House was one
empowering the president to exempt
from the draft. in his discretion, per-
! sons engaged in. agricultural work.
Another would require each state to
furnish a quota Of men apportioned
according to population, and still an
other provides that mo bounty shall
be paid to induce any person to en-
list" and that ''no person liable to
military servdce shall hereafter be
permitted or allowed to furnish a
substitute for such service"
In the Senate there was a long de-
bate over proposal to prohibit the sale
or possession OF intoxicating liquors
during the war. Several amendments
we're adopted, including one to make
it unlawful to sell or give liquor to
officers or men In uniform or to mem
bers Of Congress or other officials, and
then the Senate reversed itself and
adopted substitute simply forbidding
the sale Of liquor to soldiers in uni
form, and giving the president wide
discretionary authority to make other
prohibition regulations.
An amendment by Senator Curtis
stipulating that men subject to draft
who voluntarily present themselves
shall be recorded as volunteers, was
accepted by Chairman Chamberlain,
and went into the bill.
AOpthar long debate was ev0k ed
over amendments by Senators Thomas
and LaFollette to exempt from con-
scription those having conscientious"
objections to military service. Both
were defeated without roll call. and
the bills exemption proposal left un.
changed.
