In quitting the House. he de-
livered a speech so full of wisdom
and patriotism that l make no
apology for reproducing the fol-
lowing paragraphs.
What we all need. what you
need in the House. what the
administration needs. what the
country needs is determination
and patience. Humanity is not
SO made that you can evolve
great organizations off hand.
We are engaged in a struggle
with probably the most efficient
organization Of people in the
world. We. have had faith that
Yankee ingenuity. American
genius. the inventive skill of our
own people mighty largely win
the war. It may become a great
factor. It is no. unlikely that
this war will be won. as many
past wars have been won, by
something entirely new. which
developed after the war has be-
gun. But whatever is done, we
must all keep our minds set on
the firm determination never to
quit without complete victory.
(Applause) 1t cannot be expect
ed that the greatest struggle the
earth has seen will not have its
rises and its falls; that there
will not come times of great
optimism and times of a low
pseeimism.
But there is one thing for US
to do, one thing for our country
to do. and that-is to exert its ut
most effort and never quit until
it has succeeded. (Applause)
''And then we must have pa
tience. We are >appropiating
here unbelievable sums of money
There are being expended by our
government these enormous
amounts. Mistakes will occur
here, mistakes will occur there.
You cannot build up great army
ard navy and the great orgaEi-
cation that goes with it without
mistakes. Let US help to Correct
them, but never forget that they
are natural and cannot be avoid
ed. We must have patience. We
must not be too hurried in our
judgment. We must not condemn
too quickly where mistakes have
occurred. We must not forget
that we have made mistakes,
both personally and legisiatively.

PET DOGCARR|ES
SMALLPOX GERMS,
INJECTING Child

Probably the first case on the rec.
ords of the public health service OF .
dog carrying smallpox virus from
children Of one family to that Of AMI
other came to the attention Of local
and Federal health authorities today.
A report OF the service cites the
statement OF q county health officer
at Eagle Pass. Tex, that a dog be.
longing to a family there carried the
virus from two diseased children and
infected the nine-month-old child Of
a neighbor.
First Case of KInd.
DR.. r. H Creel. assistant surgeoa
general. public health service. saIa
he had heard OF cases Of dogs carry
ing other diseases, communicable
through secretions, but that to hia
knowledge this was the first case Of
the dog as a smallpox carrier.
DR.. w. C. Woodward, local health
official. who Is studying the public
service report, stated today local
authorities frequently had to kin, and
sometimes to disinfect. both dogs and
cats suspected OF carrying such dis
eases as measles. dlphtheria, ana
whooping cough among children
81 have had report OF a case OF :
domestic pet in Buffalo carrying
case of diphtheria from. the child Of
one family to that of another family
said DR.. Woodward.
DR.. Creey, to whom the public
health service representative submits
ted the Eagle Pass case, said:
"This is another OF the many cases
to prove that the house pet in cities -
not only useless, but a dangerous pest
have nothing to say, IN favor Of
Keeping these petted Creatures cooped
up in cities. but much could l say
against the practice.
"A dog Is capable OF carrying small-
pox or any other communicable dis
ed through secretions. OF course, one
might say book or any mammals
object passed from the sick to the
well would do the same. The great
danger, however, Is that the dog h
animate. moving about. and is particu-
larly attractive to the children, who
love to fondle and pet It"
May Have Infected Others.
Though the health officer reporting
to DR.. creel charges but one case OF
smallpox to the dog carrier. he says
that any OF fifteen other, cases at
Eagle Pass could have been transmit
ted by the dog.
The Esthada family. yictimized By
the disease, and owners of tho dog,
says the report, had two children Ill
with the disease. They kept their at
Fiction secret from theS authorities.
The facts were discovered in a house
toulouse investigation after sixteen
cases had broken out. all traceable to
Estradas.
Says the report in part:
The county health officer. DR..
Charles Tarver. thinks the chief fac
tor In the spread'of the disease from
the Estrada family was a large
female dog they keep. This dog
played with the sick children and
then ran all over town No other
method OF infection except by means
of the dog can be found in the case
of Beverly Baker. nine-month-old
baby of q neIghbor. No social reIa-
lions were had between this family
and others with the sickness The
dog is known to have slept on the
