The lid has been lifted from the We
nereal disease plague which in past
years has been kept on, ard there is
pending before the Legislature a meas
ure in house bill No. IS by the judi
ciary committee which will bring about
a radical change in the handling of 1t.
The bill declares syphilis, gonorrhea
and chaneroid are declared to be con-
tagious and infectious and dangerous
to the public health. 1t is made I'M
lawful for anyone infected with these
diseases to expose another person TO
the infection. State, county and city
health officers are empowered to make

measures they have introduced seeking
to protect women in all lines of occu

conditions Is made a violation of the
law. Women engaged in similar work
to men are to be given the same rate
of competition. The departnlen of i'm
migration, labor and statistics is given
general jurisdiction over the enforce
ment of the law. Another bill they are
backing proposes that eight hours

men and no employer shall require
them to work longer. Fine and inn

LAND SETTLEMENT BIG PROBLEM
There Is lot of legislation being
thrown on the two houses dealing with
the Reorganization and relief of soldiers
and sailors who enlisted in the service
of their country from this state, all of
which is backed by the best of inten-
lions and excellent spirit, but the
greater portion of which is claimed to
be impracticable. Both houses are
busy side tracking this legislation. The
leaders are beginning to eralize that
the really big problem TO care for the
soldiers properly is the land settle
ment plan which is backed by the de-
partment of the interior and If given
the proper support by congress will re-
suit in the reclamation of hundreds of
thousands il not millions of acres of
land, which will furnish work for the
returning soldiers and later farm
homes on longtime and easy pay
ments. The working out of this plan

MEMoRlALIzE CONGRESS.

In addition the legislature has twice
memorialzed congress to get quick ac-
ton in carrying out the land settle
ment plan. One OF these memorials
contains the following resolution: BE
1t resolved that we, your memorialists,
do hereby recommend that congress
Immediately authorize the United
States reclamation service to proceed
with the construction of the feasible
irrigation projects in Idaho designed TO
reclaim public lands and make the nee
essary appropriations for such resolu-
ton; also that equipment be turned
over by the war department to the
reclamation service for the use of said
reclamation, and upon completion OF
said work that it be sold on liberal
terms to the settlers on said tracts
The Bennett bill which sought to
take care of INDECENT soldiers and their
relatives by raising soldier relief fund
by general tax, met a sudden ending in
| the senate by being summarily dis
patched and thrown into the discard
over the indefinite postpSncment rouTc.
This mea sure passed the house by
Unanimous vote. 1t hardly got on the
floor Of the senate. In fact, the fl
/
be killed. While admitted to have
merit, the senators held that the bill
only added to the already heavy tax
burden of the people and this was un-
necessary because INDECENT soldiers will
be so few in number they can be
easily taken care of.
WANT HOSPITALS.
Included among the outstanding
measures introduced in the legislature
is house bill No. Ill by the committee
on public health which authorizes the
erection of two tuberculosis hospitals
in the state, one for northern Idaho to
take care of consumptive patients In
the 10 northern counties and one for
southern Idaho to take care of patients
| in all of the other counties. This
measure has the backing of the anti
tuberculosis league which has been
waging war on the white plague for
some years. The legislature will he
shown that something must be done
Immediately to fight the spread of the
disease. 1t is proposed in this bill 20
levy an ad valorem tax of one-fourth
of one mill on each dollar of taxable
property in the state in 1919, and one
eighth of one mill in 1920. There is
created a state tuberculosis commits

shall be from northern Idaho and two

will constitute the most practicable
gift that can be made to these men
among whom there is now back to
the farm movement.
It is therefore claimed by some OF
the legislative leaders at least that
Idaho cannot afford to wait In the
matter of getting quick recognition
of its idle lands. They have succeeded
in having passed the Lane bill by the
terms of which Idaho is placed In
position to work comparatively with
the federal government. This meas
ure is uniform for all states and a
number of them besides Idaho have
already accepted it. 1t is a companion

 BUILD NOW! & < I. !. E t 4 < 4 {

For the man who is contemplating building, the best thing for him to do is to quit contemplating and start building. The opportune time for erecting a chicken coop or four story apartment is NOW.
 Pine Bluff is, and has been for sev- eral months, suffering from dearth of houses. Homes are needed in this city and needed badly. To maintain her growth Pine Bluff must have more homes and have them imme- diately.
 Building materials, from all indi- cations, will not be any cheaper. They have not increased in proportion with other materials and foodstuffs and will not fluctuate as these products do. Labor is as cheap today as it will be in the future. Union officials have announced that wages will not be reduced and eastern employers are not expecting reduction in wages.
 Both building materials and labor are available at the present time. In the very near future it may be hard to obtain either materials or labor or both. There is no plausible reason for , waiting to building. Delayed activi- ties are a risk, both to the individual and the community.
 The opportune time for building is . now. Take advantage of it.

WILL ASK COUNCIL TO DONATE S5,000
 FOR CITY PARK
H. c. Couch Will Present Petitions to Defense
 Council Tuesday.

That $o,O0O of the fund in charge of H. c. Couch, federal fuel administra- tor for Arkansas, and member of the Arkansas Council of Defense, be al lotted to Jefferson county for use in establishing a memorial park to the county's war heroes was asked in petitions presented to MT, Couch yes terday by H. Kemp Toney, president of the Rotary club, and Alex. Rowell, chairman of the Jefferson County Council of Defense Both requests were signed by other officers of the two organizations.
 The petitions will be read by Mr. Couch at the meeting of the Arkan- sas Council of Defense in Little Rock next Tuesday, and it is considered very probably that the state organ ization will agree that Jefferson coun- ty is entitled to share in the distribu- tion of the fund the fuel administra- tion has on hand.
 About $25,00O has accumulated through contributions by the coal op- orators to fund, originally intended for use in defraying expenses of the fuel administrations in Arkansas and adjacent states. That there is such
 a fund is due to the resourcefulness and generosity of MT. Couch who
 suggested the manner in which aid to the government could be given, and who has borne all expenses incurred by him as fuel administrator out, of his own personal funds. Mr. Gar field, national fuel administrator, ap- proved the plan. Since the discon- tinuation of the administrations and councils of defense in other states. and since the government cannot re- ceive the money, MT. Couch plans to invite the state council of defense to suggest how the fund shall be disposed of
 It is entirely within the power of MT. Couch, as fuel administrator. to dispose of the fund in any public, war or welfare work he deems proper. As he has expressed himself in sympathy with the movement inaugurated by MT. Toney to have part of the money allotted for use in erecting a memOr- ial to the county's war heroes, it is confidently expected that the state
 council of defense will defer to MT. Couch's view. especially because the state body is acting in an advisory capacity solely at the invitation of Mir. Couch.
 'I feel confident we will receive this aid." said Mir. Toney. "Mr. Row ell, head of the county council of de- fense, and Mir. Tom. Collier, chair
 man of the civilian relief committee ! of the Red Cross, as well as other
 members of the Rotary club, the coun-
 Gil and the Red Cross, are support ing the plan. Jefferson county peo- 1 ple's sacrifices in winning the war
 make it entirely proper to allot to it a part of this fund, just as Mir. | Couch stated in yesterdays Graphic. y

g KILLED AND 300 INJURED IS
 TOLL OF STORM

Dallas, Tex, April 10.-Ninety- two persons killed, approximately 300 more or less seriously injured, and property damage estimated at nearly one million dollars was the toll ex- acted by Tuesday nights storm that swept a portion of Arkansas, North Texas and Southern Oklahoma, ac- cording to revised and virtually com plete reports here. Of the dead, 75 persons were killed in Texas, 14 in Oklahoma and three in Arkansas. Previous reports that eight lives were lost at Ravenna, Texas, proved un- founded by the latest information here.
 In response to appeals for aid from the stricken section of North Texas, where about one thousand persons are reported homeless, tents and food supplies are being rushed forward from many points in the state. Hun dreds of farmhouses were blown away and farming machinery reduced to fragments, while growing crops of all kinds were reported seriously dama- ged and in some instances destroyed.

Relief parties, however, are rapidly clearing away the debris. Wood county, Texas, was the worst sufferer. Thirty one lives were lost there and the property damage was estimated at nearly $200,- 900. Twenty two persons were killed at Fannin county, thirteen in Van Zandt county, seven in Collin county and two near Texarkana. In. Okla homa, eleven lives were lost at Du- rant, one at Jessefi one at Pontotoc and one at Walter. Three negroes were killed at Ogden, Arkansas.

PUBLIC AFFAIRS
 OVER HERE CAUSE
 WILSON TO WORRY
Advisers Think President Should Call Extra Ses-
 sion Soon.

Paris, April 10.-(By The Associa- ted Press. )-While the sessions of the council of four are occupying the chief attention of President Wilson yet those close to the president and have seen him in recent days say he is giving serious consideration to the conditions of public affairs in the United States, particularly the sit uation created by the failure of ap- propriation bills and the necessity for calling an early extra session of congress.
 It is known that some of the presi- dents advisers are of the opinion that call should be issued at a very early day, so as to permit the new congress to assemble iR perfect organization by June 1st and com plete the appropriation bills before the end of the fiscal year. Should this prevail, it would require an ear ly call in order to permit the usual period for assembling, but it is not known that it will prevail, for, while the president is listening to these counsels, he has given no intimation of the course he intends to pursue.
 Several new factors have recently entered into the consideration of this subject here. One is the departure of the military committee of the new congress for Europe and it is foreseen that the committee, which is chiefly interested in the appropriation bills cannot make the visit and get back much before June
 No Remedy Imminent. Another phase is the conclusion that the usual method of extending appro. priations beyond June 30th by concur rent resolutions of congress would not suffice in the present case, as conditions are so entirely changed from war to a peace basis that the former appropriations are not appli. cable to the present conditions. This | it is believed, will make necessary en. tirely new appropriation bills, re. quiring considerable time for theil detailed elaboration.
 The fact that the United States I
