AMENDMENTS MAY STOP ARGU.
MENTS OVER FOOD BILL

Washington, July 17-Sentiment in
the senate toward compromising diff
ferences on the food control bill ap-
parently crystallized today on a group
Of amendments drawn up by joint con-
ferences of Democratic and Republic
can leaders.
While on the senate floor another
day was spent in criticism of the de-
tense council and other executive bod
les, reprint Of the bill was made
embodying the leaders proposals
which are expected to remove any
basic objections and develop general
support.
Principal revisions recommended by
the leaders are for limitation of gov
ernment control Of foods, feeds and
fuels, including kerosene and gaso-
line; creation Of special board of
food administration Of three salaried
commissioners, instead Of administra.
ton by an individual; fixing by con-
gress Of a basic minimum price Of
s1.75 per bushel for number one north
ern wheat; extension of government
licensing to elevators, farm machin-
ery, factories, packing houses, coal
mines and dealers, fertilizer produc-
ers and wholesalers of such products
and government purchase and sale, to
secure reasonable prices Of fuel,
wheat, flour, meat, beans and potatoes
only.
Voting on these proposals and other
amendments is expected to begin to-
morrow. Among the first to come up
probably will be that under discussion
today restricting the sale to the gov
Fernment of products which the volnn-
|teer advisers Of the defense council
Fare personally interested. Many sena-
tors during the days debate urged leg
islation to prohibit such representa-
tives from selling their own wares to
the government.

Our public Health Service.

In the fields OF preventive medicine
and i'm all matters in which the public
health is concerned the public health
service does work which is not only IN
surpassed but unequaled i'm any coun-
try of the world. This is recognized
and fully appreciated in Europe. and
recently In one of the chief medical
Journals of Europe high praise was
given to the service for the extremely
vaIua Bile information with regard to
disease and preventive medicine which
was disseminated by the agency OF its
bulletins and other publications. In
fact. the United States public health
service is unique and is an institution
of which this country has every reason
to be proud. 1t remains as an ever
ready foundation upon which to erect
the department of public health when
ever congress shall see fit to establish
it.-Medical Record.

The people Of the United States have

came aware Of the result at the polls.
A friend. inquiring for him little
later, was informed by member Of
his family that he had gone mp Salt

Salt river was and Is q modest little
stream that rises in the hill country
Of Kentucky and after flowing through
more or less picturesque district for
about score of miles empties into
the Ohio. 1t was In those days good
fishing creek and the kind of stream
a jaded and disappointed politician
might naturally fancy. There was not
thing wrong about his excursion.
Yet his political enemies got hold Of
the remark that he had gone up Salt
river" and used it to imply that this
meant the end Of his public career.
The saying spread from Kentucky
into other states. and for more than
half century it has been used to eX-
press the idea that politician has
been driven to the woods for good
Hes gone up Salt river" has come
to mean, in fact. that a politician has
"been put out of business" has been
so badly beaten that he cannot come
