MORE OF HYGIENE
Excellent Health of Navy Men
Due to Care.
Death Rate in Service Is About
3.3 Per 1000 Men.

Washington. Dec. 3.-The navy's
rate during the war is attributed by
Rear Admiral BREASTED, surgeon gen.
eral of the navy, in his annual report
today. largely to the increasing ap-
precis ton by commanding officers of
the rules of hygiene and sanitation.
Where defects in the health system
have developed, he says, the blame
falls largely on the country's UMPIRE
paredness for operations of such mag
nftude.
Compared with an annual rate of
81 per thousand for the ten preced-
ing years, the rate rose during the
first quarter of this year to SO per
thousand per year. This, Doctor
BREASTED finds, was due to the unfor-
tunate and unavoidable combination
of circumstances brought about by
the rapid expansion of the navy and
the unusual weather conditions in the
first quarter of the year The death
rate for the second quarter was only
3.3. q figure closely approaching the
average for peace times.
Clear Mems Regulations.
The war has served, Doctor Braist-
ed says, to clear the regulations of
the men of the army and navy of the
impression in the public mind that
diseases due to social evils were more
prevalent in the service than GU side.
Service doctors have contended all
along, he adds, that the ratio stood
three to one in favor of the trained
service men and statistics compiled
by the provost marshal general on the
hrst draft, support them.

R. T. D. TWICEADAY
Good Roads Will Bring This
Service to Kansas.
Prediction of w. C. Markham,
Sec'y State Highways Body.

A twice-a-day mail delivery on
rural routes is one of the strong pos
sibilities of the future in Kansas, pro-
vided the campaign for hard surface
roads, now in various stages in prac-
tically every county in the state, is
carried out. This is the belief of W.
c. Markham. secretary of the Kansas.
state highway commission. whose
views on the matter are based not
only on his knowledge of highways
and how and where they should be
made, but also on an experienced OF
thirteen years in the postal service
as postmaster at Baldwin, Kan.
Mr.. Markham has pointed out some
of the needed changes in the federal
aid highway laws whereby the fed
eral government contributes to such
states as are qualified. an annual fund
for highway improvement, Mr.. Mark
ham said the most important change
in the federal aid regulations which
he believes is necessary. is the elimi-
nation Of the provision which restricts
the use of the federal fund to- i'm
proyement on post roads, As now
interpreted this means only highways
over which rural mail carriers travel.
As the rural mail carriers route is
circuitous, as a rule, the limitation
placed by the government handicaps
the development of practical high
way system, Mr.. Markham declared.
His idea is to perfect the highways
with regard to system and patronage,
and they will readily become post
roads,"
Instead Of carrying out its present
program of distributing $75,0O0,00O
among the several states in the course
of five years. the federmal government
will be urged to make an additional
appropriation of $75.000.000 annually,
MI, Markham stated. Under the
present five-year program, Kansas
share Of the five-year fund is s2.138,-
600. The government also will be
urged, Mr.. Markham said, to revise
the federal law by the elimination of
the clause which limits the cost of a
highway. constructed under the fed
eraf aid plan, to $4,000 mile. This
figure was set before the war when
roaA building materials and labor
were much Cheaper than they are
now. .-.-
1--WE already have received some as
surance that the national highways
council will change this provision"
said Mr.. Markham. ito read that the
government Will contribute half the
cost of a highway. without placing a
figure on the maximum Cost. Under
present costs a mile of brick high
way would cost around $4,000. But,
OF course, we are not figuring on
building all our Kansas highways OF
