Should Make Lower Price.

Another point raised by the health
department is that milk when recon
structed or remade in this manner
should cost the consumer less than
the regular milk. Milk in powdered
form is made mostly from SKINNED
milk To remake this into liquid
form water is added and a certain
amount of butter or other commodity
to rlace sIfficient fat in the milk is
mixed with it, There is a powdered
milk made from whole milk which
does not require the addition of but
ter fat, but this is said to be not SO
desirable as the skinned article,
principally because il is more eX-
pensive and does not keep so we'll.

LABEL IS REQUIRED
ONPOWDERED MILK
Health Department Decides
That Consumers Should
Know What They Buy.
EXTENT OF USE UNKNOWN

So extensive has become the prac-
tice among some local milk dealers
Of using powdered milk that they
must in the future label the bottles
SO that the public viii be aware OF
what they are buying.
There is nothing wrong with pow
.dered milk. and it is said. to be prob
ably just as wholesome and palatabie
as the genuine unadulterated raw
milk. but to sell it without properly
branding it is L violation of the pure
food and drugs act. Because of this
the local health department has
warned dealers that action will be
taken against future violations.

j. s. WIRE CONTROL
MAY ENDDEC. 81
Post Office Committee of
House Decides to Report
Resolution, 10 to 8.
NO MENTION OF CABLES

December 81, 1919 is set for tie
limit on government control and
operation of the telephone ami tele-
graph lines in resolution which the
House post Office committee decided
by vote OF 10 to to report. Chair
man Moon of the committee win ask
from the rules committee special
order giving the wire control meas
ure right of way in the House.
The resolution made no mention OF
cable properties, and that phase of
the situation was not discussed at
the meeting OF the committee. Mem
bers later expressed varying opinions
rs 10 the effect oC the legislation on
federal control of those properties
which, was assumed by presidential
proclamation last November under
the authority given in the original
wire control resolution passed by
CONGRESS July 16 last.

Difference of Views.

Chairman Moon said the new legis..
iation would not affect the original
law in so far as it applied TO cable
properties, control of which would
have to be relinquished with the is
suing of proclamation by the
President announcing the signing OF
the treaty OF peace and its ratitiea-
ton.
Other members expressed n differ
ent view, based upon the fact that the
cable properties were controlled by
the telegraph companies. They thought
control of the cables would be auto
maticaily extended. There were still
other committeeman who believed the
question would have 10 be settled in
the courts.
Various dates for termination OF
control of the telephone and telegraph
companies were suggested after the
committee had concluded its hearings
on the original administration meas
ure by examining Postmaster General
Burleson. The first proposal was Tor
restoration of the properties to private
management next May 30, but this and
another TO extend the time to Decen-
Der 81 1929, were voted down.

Consumers to Know.

Bottles containing the reconstructed
product must be labeled to that ef-
feet The health department insists
that the consumers of Washington
must not be deceived They must be
afforded opportunity to know what is
being served to them.
To what extent powdered milk Is
being used in remaking milk in
Washington is not known definitely
by the department. 1t was said to-
tiay that the dealers all contend they
have either not used powdered milk
at all or have done so to a very slight
extent 1t was minated, however,
that until 81 month or 50 ago when the
milk supply was being taxed beyond
its capacity at least so per cent of
the local dealers were resorting to
powdered milk. in considerable
amount to meet the local demands.

Alice Brady, actress, we'll known as
a stage and screen star, was married
on Tuesday evening to James L. Crane
actor.
Miss Brady and Mr.. Crane were mar.
rled by Dr.. Frank Crane, father of the
bridegroom, at the Crane residence

and the young couple yesterday re-
celved Mr. and Mrs. Bradys cabled
ngratulations.
Miss Brady and Mr.. Crane have been
engaged for some time, and had not
originally intended being married until
after the return of Mr.. and Mrs. Brady
from London. The fact that Miss
Brady will continue indefinitely in
"forever After" the play in which she
IS appearing at the Playhouse, and
that Mr.. Cranes professional engage
ments assure his presence in the city
also for some time to come resulted
IN their decision to be married at once.

Clergymen in Tilt
Over Luncheon Bill
Long Island Episcopal Conven.
ton Has Heated Argu-
ment Over Tax

GARDEN CITY, Long Island, May 21.
-Clergymen assembled at the Episco-
pal convention of the Long Island dio-
cese were vigorous in their protests to-
day against an additional assessment
to pay for the convention, social SER
vice and religious education.
The argument started when Supreme
Court Justice Townsend Scudder, chair
man of the finance committee, read his
report. Several clergymen asked
Bishop Frederick E. Burgess, the pre-
siding officer, for the floor at the same
time. The argument lasted an hour,
and when Justice Scudder read an item
of $500 for luncheons one clergyman
demanded if it cost that much to feed
the ministers. "You look pretty we'll
fed" retorted Justice Scudder. 1t was
decided not to levy the tax, but to let
the parishioners pay what they could.
A heated discussion arose when
Canon w. S. Chase offered resolution
that the convention urge the President
and the Senate to adopt the league Of
nations covenant. The Rev. P. F.
Swenson made a strong plea against
the resolution, declaring that it was
political, and that the diocese had no
right to enter politics.

BOSTON, May 21-Willam D. Nc
Cracken has severed his connection
with the editorial board of the Chris

the "censoring' of his articles by the
trustees of the publishing society has
created an "intolerable situation"
Mr.. McCracken was personally ap-
pointed by the late Mary Baker Eddy
as first reader of the Mother Church
when the s2,OO0,00O temple was built
in the Back Bay in 1906 He also was
for time member of the board
whose actions he now condemns. He
is one of the best known lecturers of
the Church.
The ex-editor declares that the CEN
sors caused to be taken out of one of
his articles the second verse of the
hymn "Onward, Christian Soldiers,
and from an editorial of his a state
ment by Mrs. Eddy concerning the
manual which she framed for her own
Church. These he cites as but instances
to prove the trustees rather than the
editors are determining the nature OF

THE city is in for thorough clean

mlsslons- Copeland says so in emphatic
tones.
"1n my opinion" he says. "this town
needs cleanup week. The streets
should be freed from dirt and litter.
Homes should be emptied of needless ac-
cumulation. Alley ways should be
cleansed and the community made spic
and span. While the war was on people
didn't have much time for home spring
cleaning. Now we want vigorous cam
paign such as this community has not
seen in years."
Here is the schedule that has been
drawn up by the Board of Health:
The presentation of petition to the
Board of Education for the assistance of
teachers and pupils.
A petition to the Mayor for the CO.
operation of all civic departments.
The preparation of the necessary cir
