London, Oct. 24-The JOY of work

some of the more highly specialized
branches of agriculture. is proving
irresistible to English women of the
educated class. Under the auspices of
one land-work organization alone, the
agricultural section of the Women S

are performing an extraordinary
variety of farming operations
Miss Sylvia Brooklebank, daughter
of a well-known North OF England
land owner, the late Sir Thomas
Brooklebank. is commandant of this
section.
Like her twin sister, who married
George Westinghouse, Jr.. and lives in
Pittsburg, Pa. Commandant Brookle-
bank is very brilliant horsewoman,
one of the very few women accus-
toned to drive a fourin hand. Mem
hers of the legion are hard at work in
the cornfields. helping to gather in a
beautiful harvest, picking fruit for
bottling and jam-makfng for the
troops, and carrying on market gar

QUESTION OF RIGHT

Washington Oct 24.--The right OF
the interstate commerce comm issior
to fix rates will probably remain aa
shown ir the decision in the Will
mette Valley Lumber case, according
TO those who are In touch with rail-
road administration policies.
In this case, involving rates on for
est products from Willamette Val
ley points in Oregon eastward to~mid
west points, the question OF final au-
thority in rate making and fixing be-
came a live issue, overwhelming the
part iculAr--ratea Inxnlxe Id T iaa--4.ett+-
mission held that the commerce act
was In no wise interfered with by the
subsequent laws providing for federal
control and that final authority in the
matter of rates still rests in the com
mission.
Attorneys for both the railroad ad
minstration and the railroads main
tanned that the rates prescribed by Di-
dered a horizontal 81 per cent increas Sc
but the commission found that this in
crease had aggravated situation that
already was filled with dscrimiua alton
against the shippers and ordered that
rates removing this discrimination be
put into effect.
II is limited that the attorneys for
the railroads administration went be-
yond the direct or generals own idea
Hpf the relative authority of the admin .
istration and the commission and that
he will permit the decision TO stand

GRIPPE EPIDEMIC
Continued from First Page. )

SO far as the city Is concerned, The
officials. however. are dubious as to
the certainty of the people being able
10 use their own Judgment sanely in
lodging the influenza germ, and very
properly are urging all persons to OBJ
serve the suggestions given by the
health departments from time to time
and to exercise utmost caution in car
rying out the common sense rules of
health.
The acting state health commission
er, DIR. Garnet. stated yesterday that
reports from all sections of the state
show material decrease in the mum
Der of cases.
The reports received at the local
health office, even with helated re-
turn from some physicians. who may
have been too busy early in the stage
Of the epidemic ~ make regular re-
ports. show that tho situation is well
in han'i.- This happy condition, It is
believed is mainly due to the precau-
tons taken early in the progress OF
the disease.
DIR, Copeland. health officer OF
Americas largest city, whore more
crowds are wont tn gather than in
any other city in the country, has
never yet lost his head. but has urged
all citizens to cooperate in the slaugh-
ter of the disease germ. by keeping
their poise. refraintug from hvsteria
keeping clean and by observing the
simple rules of health. II this Is done
he says, the disease will soon play it
self out.

CAMPAIGN AGAINST
FEAR IS ADVOCATED

Des Moines, Ia. Oct. ga course IL
common sense and the basic ideas o
/ CHRISTIAN Science. and an editorial pol
icy for newspapers directed agains
fear. was urged at meeting here o
committee of business and profes
sional men which have virtually beer
in charge, of the city during The So
called Spanish Influenza epidemic DIR
W. c. White, city sanitarian, is chair
man Of the committee. The member
ship includes James r.. Hams. former
mayor u. c. Thornburg. superinten-
dent of schools: c. l.. Herring, of the
greater Des Molnes committee; Mar
I shall Miller president of the Arades ant
labor assembly; Ralph FRxon, secre'
tary of the chamber ON commerce
Charles sa re#sae, drug assA-pr-
Granville Ryan, r. L. Parker and
Thomas +. Duhigg
The city has been under rigid quar-.
antine for a minimum period of two
weeks, all schools. colleges, churches
theaters and amusement places having
been closed to prevent further spread
of the alleged epidemic.
The fact that soldiers and officers al
Camp Dodge who are Christian Scien.
lists have not been affected by the cpl
demtc. was called to the committee's
attention at the meeting by Mr.. Miller
There Is no question. said DIR
Witte. that by right attitude OF
mind these people have kept them
selves from illness. | have no doubt
that many persons have contracted
the disease through fear.
People can deceive themselves into
thinking they have any disease on the
calendar. and doubtless many of them
have thought themselves into their
graves.
A recommendation that newspapers
prepare editorials citing the immunity
which Christian Scientists enjoy from
influenza, and urging the use of com
mon sense and a calm attitude of mind
In Gonquering fear of infection. was
made by III. w. Byers, corporation
counsel for the city. The recommen
dation was indorsed by the committee
as whole, and newspapers were asked
to quote the committee to that effect
ENTIRELY too much publicity has
been given to supposed symptoms oil
the so-called Spanish Influenza" was
Mr.. Byers' further comment, land
would recommend that If anything be
printed in regard to the disease 1t be
confined to simple preventive meas
ures--something constructive, rather
than destructive"
Fear is the first thing TO be over
come. the first step IN eonanering this
,epidemic," said Or. Witte II am not
a Christian Scientist. but | believe an
application of their principles will ma
teriaily aid preserving the health OF
this community. They did not orig
mate with the Scientists. but are to he
