Taking the second week in January
as Il sample. the health statistics from
the ARMY environments are Interesting
in view of Secretary Bakers optimism.
In that week there were, from all
causes 100 deaths among members OF
the National Guard and 16T among
members Of the National Army. Eighty
OF tbs. guardsmen died from pneu-
monia and 10 of those IN the National
Army died from the same cause. Upon
the basis Of the present strength OF
he organizations in camp. this makes
q death rate from all causes Of 14.3 per
cent, which is. higher than that OF any
city in the natiou,. save one. The prin-
cipal scourage Of the camps. pneu-
monia. is a disease due primarily to
EXPOSURE, which in camp. would arise
chiefly from insufficient clothing or
housing.
There was great indignation
throughout the country over the ty-
poid which swept through the concen-
tration camps Of the Spanish War
period. though medical science had not
then spotted and swatted the fly as the
chief carrier of that disease. nor was

AN UNJUST SUIT

The Department Of Justice must
have lot of time hanging heavily on
its hands in spite Of the war 10 prose
cate Il suit OF the nature Ii has in
St;tuted against the lonS established
and almost universally known firm or
Colgate 4 Co.. and which is bound to
concern every American industry that
possesses IN honored and trustworthy
trade name. The charge is that Col
gate & Co. have violated the Sherman
antitrust law and have acted in re-
straint Of trade in that they have re-
fused 10 sell their products to dealers
who fail to maintain the Colgate j
Co. retail sales price. BY no twist OF
,heir business procedures can such q
claim be sustained, as they have not
sought to bind their retailers BY con-
tract. They have simply maintained
their right of choosing whom will
deal with and whom they will not.3
From whence then does the suit
spring. Why. from dealers who have
been selling the celebrated Colgate
goods at cost and below cost to attract
customers who pay double prohl on
other goods they may buy. Colgate
& CO. have simply refused to sell TO
~ fhnSa
dealers who have been regularly
handling their goods. but the puoNc
as well. Generally. the business house
that sells an established product, one
of steady demand. at cost or lower Is
lesitimately under suspicion of max
ing it upun something else it sells.
Colgate & Co. contend that they have
tried to protect the public by placing
their product for sale in only those
stores where their advertising might
lead their customers TO fair dealing
in products other than their own; but
that this would not be possible unless
their dealers be assured reasonable
profit upon sales. For refusing to sell
to the sharks in business. this reput-
able house that has been in operation
for l12 years. is hailed to court. under
a charge they are not guilty or

contract had been sought binding the
retailer to a scale Of prices. that would
have been clearly illegal. But Colgate
& Co. merely sought to exercise the
right TO select their own customers"
which was expressly preserved In the
Clayton act.
There Is TO restraint Of trade to be
found in the acts of this firm except
the restraint Of the dishonest trade
they refuse to supply with their goods.
Besides Colgate & Co. have a name to
protect, and they are employing none
but the most legitimate means to save
it from dishonoring associations. OBJ
viousIy. they have q right to do this.
The Department of Justice seems to be
engaged in Il very small business in
prosecuting Them Certainly the gov
ernment's case must fail.
