OF VENEREAL
 DISEASES BECOMES STATE LAW

every case, which will be known by number only, the patients name never being given, and if patient changes doctor, a report must be made of the fact. If the patient fails to report such a change, he will be placed in the criminal class and will be search ed cut and arrested.
 "This campaign is being instituted by the federal authorities" declared Dr. Sweek, land they have all the federal laws behind them. In localities where the local officials do not CO., operate with the state authorities, the federal officials may have to take con- trol.
 Physicians who fail to report cases of venereal diseases will be subject to fine, Imprisonment and revocation of license. Deputy supervisors of health may be appointed in various parts of the state.
 All women's clubs and civic organ izations in, Arizona are to be enlisted in this campaign, it is stated, and speakers will be furnished to present the facts to the people in all parts of the state. The state statutes give the board of health board powers, Dr. Sweek states, and they expect to take advantage of them.
 All public places are to be placarded that no one may be ignorant of the ob- jects of the campaign and of what is expected of each person that they may not render themselves liable to fine or imprisonment for disregard of the in structions.
 "This is not so much a reform meas ure," said Dr. Sweek, "as it is health measure. Ten thousand dollars ex- pended in preventive measures in this state would save Arizona $2,000,OOO or S3 100000. It is stated that the entire amount raised in Arizona for the sec ond Liberty loan is just about enough to pay the venereal disease bill for Arizona soldiers" ,"
 This campaign in Arizona is simul- taneous with campaigns in every other state in the union. Determining to control the spread of venereal diseases in the army, the federal authorities have started the campaign at the homes.

EVERY WOMAN
CAN HELP NEXT
. LIBERTY LOAN
Woman's Committee for
Twelfth Federal Reserve
District to Form an
Organization
By MRS. A. S. BALDWIN
chairman Woman's Liberty Loan
Committee, Twelfth Federal
Reserve District)

Now that we are actively in the war
and our men are in the front line
trenches; are being killed; are Delns
passed; are being MANNED for me- IL
would seem that every woman In the
land should be In the front ranks OF
the civilian workers to help the men
win the war.
Each of VI has her part to play,
however small 1t may be, and wnetner
It be great or small 1t Is OF importance
that each shall perform her part TO
the utmost of her ability.
Some can buy Liberty Bonds. some
can influence others to buy. Perhaps
some can only help by conserving the
use of food and clothing and by econ
omizing In household expenditures,
thus liberating and augmentlng the
essentials which must be sent over
there" for the use of our army and
for the destitute civilian population OF
our allies. -Z H..# IN Z .-zs
In whatever way each woman OF
this Twelfth Federal Reserve District
can help, let her DO her utmost that
we who are farthest from the front
may sustain our part of the struggle,
and keep for ourselves and our chill
dren the blessings and privileges we
have inherited, and thus make it pos
sible to win like blessings for the mil
lions who are now in actual bondage.
We should not only save to help,
but the great lesson to be learned also
IS to do now without non-essentfals and
to make sacrifices SO that the labor
which produces what we consider to
be even essentials may be used to
produce those things which are actu-
ally essential for the support and
safety of those who are carrying the
burden of this unprecedented struggle
for freedom and democracy.
The aim of the Woman's Liberty
Loan Committee is to form an organf-
cation which shall make the woman
in every home in the land realize
these conditions and her response
billy, that the message shall not
reach her only from one direction. but
from many, so that she shall be
brought to a full realization Of her
responsibility.

PICTURE AWAKENS WAR
SPIRIT OF AUDIENCES
'The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin" is
Said to be Powerful Agency
for Stirring Patriotism

Mrs. Averill Beavers, chairman of
the woman's committee of the Ameri-
can Defense society, is in receipt OF a
letter from the national headquarters
in New York, congratulating her upon
the plan to show the new photoplay,
"The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin" as
a means of raising a fund for the fur
therance of the important work of the
Defense society. The entire net pro-
fits of the evenings performance of
May will be turned over to this na-
tional patriotic society to aid in the
work of counteracting enemy activities
in this country. .....-.. ...-............ !.
The letter is as follows: "The Ma
tional Woman's Committee congratu-
lates you upon the plan to show the
picture The Kaiser, the Beast of Ber-
him. as benefit for the American De-
tense Society. We wish you every sue
cess in your enterprise.
"May I say also, that in my mind,
the picture itself constitutes one of the
most powerful agencies that has been
produced for awakening the right spir-
it in regard to the war?
"It was my privilege to see it pre-
scented before a crowded audience in
the Broadway Theatre in New YORK
not long ago, and at no patriotic rally
have I seen a more fervid display of
patriotism. Tears streamed down the
faces of men and women at some of
the Belgian scenes, simple, and freed
from too much horror as they are.
Kisses stung the air at the pictures
of the Kaiser and Won Tirpitz. When
the Kaiser says to Ambassador Gerard
as he did, 81 shall stand no nonsense
from America after the war; the audi
ence broke into derisive laughter"

GOVERNMENT Is BUYING
YAKIMA PINK BEANS
Eight Cents is Offered but Beans must
be Thoroly Cleaned and in
-. New Sacks

County Agriculturalist L. M. Lamp
son, who for sevral months has been
on the trail of a bean market here,
has at last found one and is now busy
figuring out details whereby the bean
growers can get the most out of their
crops.
The government recently placed an
order for Yakima pinks, thru o. a.
Fechter, food administrator for Yaki-
ma county. Mr.. Fechter has. notified
Mr.. Lampson that the government will
take a carload from Kennewick. The
government pays cents f. o.. b. ship
ping point, but the beans must be
cleaned and sacked in new 100-fb. bags.
AS there is no machinery here for
cleaning the beans it would be neces-
sary to ship them to some point where
they: can be cleaned. The Lewiston
Milling company is doing the cleaning
at Yakima at charge of So a ton,
where the beans are run thru once
and Sc where the second run is neces-
sary. This company offers to buy the
beans outright at to 7k cents f. o.
b. Yakima. ~ 49,.
Unless a carload can be assembled
here this is probably the best offer
that has been made. AS the beans are
to be shipped east something may be
saved by shipping the beans to Spo-
kane for cleaning so as to save the
freight charges from here to Yakima.
Mr.. Lampson and c. E. johnson, OF
the Empire Grain Co., are Investigate
ing this plan and all farmers who have
beans for sale should communicate
with one or other of these men.

respond to the call Of country.
