SAYS DANIELS

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. IL

Guiding army and cargo transports,

SYDNEY, Australia, Dec. 6. =
Pronouncement by Arthur j. Bal
four, British secretary of state for
foreign affairs, that Germany's col
onies will not be returned to her
after the war revives in Australi;
and New Zealand animated discus
sion of the future of all the islands
in the Pacific south of the equator.
Whatever conclusion is reached
by the allies at the peace confer
eEce as to the disposition of Ger
man New Guiena and Gercan Sa-
moa. Rot to mention the Marshall,
Caroline and Ladrone groups, it is
generally admitted that an entire
recasting of the various admins
trations of the British islands is
needed to develop their great po-
tential wealth, afford security for
trade and insure adequate defense,
1t is believed that a federation
of all the British archipelago un-
der a central authority having the
seat of government at the most
convenient center will eventuate
after the val.
Thus, in effect, a new state
would be created which might be
called the British Pacific Fedora

a governor-general or high com

missioner. Such a governor-gen-
eral or high commissioner would
not be concerned with the local
governmental affairs of any par
ticular group, but with the fedora
tion as a whole. He might be
assisted by a council composed of
appointed officials, representatives
elected by each island group, and
trade commissioners representing
Great Britain, Australia, New Zea-
land and Canada.
Local legislators would, under
such a scheme as this, have as
large a measure of self-government
as compatible with the proportion
of whites to South Sea islanders
and Asiatics, incapable at present
of self-government.
1t is pointed out here, however,
that if the British islands are fed
Grated, means of communication
between them must be provided in
order that their administration and
general welfare may obtain. Ex-
listing steamer services radiate
from Sydney in Australia and AUX
land in New Zealand, but groups
served by any one line have no
connecting link with adjacent isl
ands served by other lines or with
China and India, ave by way OF

EXPERT DENIES THAT
TUBERCULOSIS IS
CITY DISEASE

CHICAGO, Dec. II. = Doubt
tuberculosis is a "city disease" was
presented to the American Public
Health association convention here
today by DR.. Burton R. Rogers of
New York. He said the secretary
of the Indiana state board of health
had written him that out of a to-
tai population of $4,000 in Craw-
ford county, Indiana, 1000 had
died of tuberculosis within 10
years.
"Can such a record be even par
alleled in the worst lung block" in
the worst city in American" asked
the speaker. Investigation in
other states might reveal even
worse conditions"
DR.. Rogers explained that Craw-
ford county has 304 square miles
and that the 1900 residents are
scattered on 1861 farms and in 81
towns and villages, the largest ur-
ban center containing less than
1900 inhabitants. He added:
"It is doubtful if there is a
three-story tenement in the county.
and if every house is not at least
10 feet from every other house and
if every living and sleeping room
has not one or more outside win
dows. These are certainly not
city conditions"

NOTED WAGE DISPUTE
BEING HEARD BY
FEDERAL JUDGE

CHICAGO, Dec. IL. = Federal
Judge Samuel Alschuler, arbitra-
tor in the dispute between the
packers and their employees, began
hearing testimony in connection
with the demand of the men for
an increase of rs per cent in wag-
es over the salary schedule award
ed a year ago for the period of
the war.
The men charged that the pack
ers failed to obey certain provis-
ions of the former award. The
new petition contained 35 specific
demands. One hundred thousand
employees are involved.

Snakes in the Ocean.

II is not generally known that there
arc snakes in the ocean. There are
numerous varieties of small snakes
that live in all oceans; then there are
the cells, of course, which go from the
salt water to the fresh. In the waters
around southern Asia there lives the
banded sea snake, which has stripes
around its body and broad tail, and
can swim with great speed.-Christian

The word ''clove'' has come down

which the dried Glove bears to a nail.

gantuan appetite the young women OF
America would develop for doing
things in war times and sought to
turn this immense amount of energy
into productive channels.
Having lived up to this promise, a
new woman will emerge with no
nostalgia for the empty past. She
will have learned to work more eff
ciently. She will know that true
patriotism is not merely a clapping of
hands, waving of flags and a weep
ing as the troops march by, but that
it means hours of work-Red Cross
work, selling of thrift stamps, food
conservation, entertainment of SOL
diers, work at patriotic meetings
that it means putting the flag and the
high principles it symbolizes into her
daily life.

ENEMIES OF THE DRAFT

The man who speaks of another as
having been caught" in the draft
or says that the draft got" him, is
waving a German flag.
Our Government, the Government
set up and controlled by the American
people. passed the selective draft law
as the most efficient and most demo-
cratic method of raising an army to
conserve that democracy. The nation
as whole acquiesced in the plan, and
the men selected to go to the battle
front have not been the chief of OBJ
jectors.
The American who is not willing to
serve his country is a negligible fac
tor. 1t is but natural that many should
not actively desire to go into the
Army, but even these stand willing
to go when the call comes The draft
merely brings the call to service to
the particular individual Its re-
spOnse in instantaneous.
He does not feel that the draft got"
him. He feels that the draft has
shown him and when he can make his
life count for the most His turn, his
opportunity, has come through the
draft.

THE WAYS OF PRONUNCIATION

Someone once said, BE sure you're
right, then go ahead" and because il
seemed a simple, straightforward
statement it was pronounced a wise
one and some persons tried to put II
into practice. That is but one result
of the evils of pronunciation.
Recently a movement was started
in st. Louis to run down and corral
the one authentic pronunciation OF
that city's name, but the persons who
instigated the search came out of it
sadder if not wiser men. They soon
found themselves in the position of the
postmaster who held the guinea pigs
for charges-One pronunciation led to
another, and soon they were coming
so fast the task of sorting had to be
given up.
Saint Louis" said as it is spelled,
is simple enough; but there is the
French influence that furnishes COM
plicatiOns. No self-respecting French
man would say anything but San
Loo-i." And consider the near-French
with its delicate nuance of difference.
Then there is the English way, Sin
Louis" and the English-French, "Sin
LoO-i" Even Webster's gives two
ways out, Saint LoO-is" and Saint
Loo-i." That alone is discOuraging to
the seekers of the one right way. OF
course the accents on all of them vary.
But if st. Louis were the isolated
instance it might be pleasing for its
variation. There are others, as close
to home. Missouri, Mizzouri, Missou-
ra. Mizzoura-take your choice. The
dictionary favors the soft ''s' and the
short 81 at the end, but Missourians,
died in the wool, take their SIS" hard.
And Kansas City is debatable
ground Any Missourian will tell you
the IS" is hard, but the Kansan Kisses
it like a snake-tO the MissOuran.
In Saint Joseph" are combined the
difficulties that are found in the way
of the single pronunciation of st.
Louis, Kansas City and Missouri, and
it has a diminutive form as well that
clamOrs to be uttered (and is).
Just over the state border lies
Arkansas. which a state legislature
has struggled over in vain. But there
is no need to go outside of the state.
The point is clear, though the pronun-
citation may be in doubt.
And the moral? When you meet
Wytschaete and Seicheprey tomorrow,
take them on high-nO hesitation. f
you wait until you are right you will
never go ahead!

BE DOCTOR TO YOURSELF

The Government is calling so heavily
on the supply of doctors to enlist in
the service that already in some dis
triCts they are as scarce as the
proverbial hens teeth. In such a
place only the oldest healer of human
ills, or none at all, is left to patch up
the rents in the cOmmunity's health
garment, a condition that bids fair to
spread over the whole country.
But it will be a felicitOus circum-
stance that takes us back in a
measure to the self-reliance of the
pioneer days, when our forefathers
lived to that famous ripe old age"
With a lack of doctors to tend our
every little pain and ache we shall
have to learn to be self-dOctOrs. So
get out your physiology text and some
modern book on self care and read
them. 1t isn't an impossible feat for
US to prevent our minor ailments. The
habit if acquired now, will make for
a healthier United States.
We shall gradually get rid of the
complaining men and women. They
are not numerous, but the luxury of
modern days has encouraged their
natural inclination to whine at all
ills. big or little-mOre often the lat
ter. With no family physician to call
in and have run up large bills for
them to boast of, they will have to
subdue their peevish proclivities and
become joys to their friends forever.

Daily Food Hint

Experienced chefs have discovered
that potatoes, boiled twice, can be
worked up very easily as wheat sub
stitute in bread, some reporting that
good results have been attained with
as much as 80 per cent admixture.
Many of our grandmothers used to
mix potatoes in with their white bread.
In urging the sale of more potatoes
through hotels and restaurants, the
Food Administration is advising
against the sale of fried potatoes, on
the ground that these require too much
fat, and in many cases are apt to be
unwhOlesOme
