TEST OF
MEAT IS
SHARPER

Every piece OF meat sold in Ia
coma hereafter must be inspected
before and after slaughtering by
U. s. meat inspectors, according
to a new regulation announced to
city officials by DR.. Trohn, a spe-
cial representative Of the federal
health service.
DR.. Trohn has been sent over
the country to see that all meat
sold in the vicinity of army can
comments or training camps is
properly inspected.
Other cities in the vicinity OF
Camp Lewis, including Olympia
and Seattle, will face the same
regulation.
Under the new ruling, farmers
and ranchers who have been in
the habit of slaughtering animals
at home and bringing the meat
to Tacoma for sale, must bring
the live animals to the city. Ar
rangements have been made by
the government to have the Car
stems Packing Co. slaughter all
meats under federal inspection,
charging a minimum fee to the
farmers.
The municipal meat inspection
depot at 25th and c sts., where
all the meats slaughtered by
farmers have been inspected by
Drs. Button~-and Bachelor of the
city health department, will auto
matically go out of business with
the new system.
Farmers will be put to the
unusual expense and trouble OF
driving their live animals to Ia
coma for Strengthening, and no lit
tie difficulty will be experienced
by those living in the island dis
trict. All animals except veal are
included in the order.
THE new ruling is part of the
governments campaign to safe
guard the health OF soldiers who
visit cities in the vicinity of can
tonments," explained Meat In
spector DR.. Button Monday. ut
will undoubtedly cause a slight
increase in meat prices, and put
the farmers to much more trouble
than before, but the government
wants it, so we will comply with
the ruling at once"

LONDON-The German commission
appointed to examine the decline in
the birth rate in Germany has reported
a recommendation for the compulsory
marriage of Germans before their goth
year is passed, according to dispatch
to the Daily Express from Amsterdam.
Financial assistance would be grant
ed by the state, according to this plan,
which provides penalties for those fail
ing to comply. Provision also is made
for the punishment of married couples
who remain childess.
A report from German sources shows
fall in the birth rate in Germany
during 1915-17 equivalent to the loss of
100000 infants. Forty per cent
fewer births occurred in 1916 than in
1918. These figures are compare with
a decrease of 10 per cent in the birth
rate in England and Wales.
The infantile death rate in Germany
has been kept well down, but reports
show it SO per cent higher than in Eng
land and Wales.

SPIRITED CONTEST AT UNIvER-
SITY YESTERDAY; RE-
SUIT OF VOTING

Feminism has invaded the portals
of the University of Idaho and the
masculine element stands aghast at
the prospect of losing certain tradi-
tional and sacred rights. The women
of the university, having long borne
the burden of athletics and sharing
only vicariously in the glories there
OF, have risen at last to demand that
! they be given a voice in the direction
of athletic policies and an extension of
athletic privileges. To that end they
nominated two girls to the athletic
board and one as debate manager.
Their candidates were defeated, but
according to prominent coed, the
real purpose of the nomination was
accomplished. The girls hoped to stir
up enough interest in the occasion to
bring to light the deplorable condi-
tions of the girls athletics. Athletic
exercises for women at the University
of Idaho are limited to tennis and
Swedish gymnastics. The end the in
surgents have in view and what they
hope ultimately to accomplish is to
open to women basket ball, hockey, in
door baseball in fact ali the sports
that leading co-educational schools of
the east and middlewest have long
offered to women.
The following were elected to Of
flee for the ensuing year: A. S. U. L,
president Homer McDonald; vice
president, Edwin Rettig; secretary, |
Helen Douglas; treasurer, Anne |
debate manager, Walter |
Editor of Argonaut, Ernest Lindley;
assistant editor, Nelson Lloyd; busi-
ness manager, Alfred Kinney; assist
ant business manager, William South
erland
The athletic board for next year
will be Leslie Moe, James Fox, Roy
Wallace Barber, Paul
