DIRTY milk MAY BRING

Power to Revoke Offending Deal
ers' Licenses Is Likely
to Be Asked.

Changes in the Districts milk laws
which will give the health officer au-
thority to revoke the licenses of Dis
trict producers found guilty Of selling
unclean milk may be the outcome OF
the discovery yesterday of several
bottles of dirty milk. one Of which
contained the body of mouse.
The offender is one of the Districts
largest retail dealers. but. under ex-
listing law. his permit cannot be sus-
pended or cancelled. The case will
come up in the United States branch
of the Police Court on a warrant
charging violation of the pure food

is a maximum fine of $500, one years

all the regularly enrolled students to

Col. Rees goes on to explain that for
the present no units will be established
IN secondary schools. but 'it is hoped
to provide at an early date for the ex-
tension of military instruction in such
schools. and the secondary schools are
urged to intensity their instruction so
that young men seventeen and eighteen
years old may be qualified to enter
college as promptly as possible"
Inasmuch as tuition and subsistence
are the main items in the maintenance
of an educational institution, the fact
that the government is going to con-
tract for those two big things means
a virtual taking over or requisitioning
Of the educational facilities Of the
country. Since the government pays
the bills it will have much to say
about the studies pursued.

While the law governing the pro-
duction and sale of milk in the Dis

permits for the shipping of milk into
