rain. says q Reuter- despatch received
here to-day from London.
''rhe Germans are licking their

III they are ready 20 do so on a great
scale" 'he message adds. They are
bsing openly and enormously rein
forced. but the Allies have also
strengthened their forces and It is not
iiitsly that the next thrust will be ony
more effective IN achieving a de ,ision
than that OF a month ago when the
German people were told to expect a
speedy triumph.
The expectation on this side Is
that the battle may last well through
the summer. For one thing II VIII

who is acting with Commissioner of
Accounts Hirshfleld.
Dr. Goldwater was asked II he be-
lleved that the continuance of the
Bureaus Of Child Hygiene, Santa
ton, Preventablo Diseases and Food

tuted, essential TO the health and

City.
Il do" he replied with emphasis.
Or. Goldwaters opinion came a.
quite a shock 20 the Hylan investi-
gators, its being their contention that
the health bureaus mentioned are
Inefficient. extravagant and useless.
DIR. Goldwater followed his indorse-
ment of the bureaus by explaining
that he believed tho success Of these
branches of tho Health Department
depended upon the special quallnca-
tions Of the directors and the enthu-
slasm of the workers.
Or. Goldwatcr was asked II lie had
ever contemplated wiping out these
bureaus. He replied that such a
thing had never occurred to him
while he was Health Commissioner.

MacBride.
"Yes" replied DR.. ooldwater, "alsr

At this junction DR.. Goldwater ad
ninlstered n thinly veiled rebuke 4
the invest gators. He said the az
fairs Of the Health Department ar,
