Bill Provides Funds
for Fighting Disease

On January 10, 1919, bill was in
troduced into the House of Repre-
sentatives which if passed will mean
much for~the promotion of health OF
the rural and of the villages and
towns of the United States. If ap'
propriated the funds will be appor''
toned to the parishes counties in
other states) on dollar basis. The
plan of health work on which the
common fund will be expended will
be approved by the Z. S. Public
Health Service and State Board of
Health.
Under this plan the activities of
health work will be enlarged in scope
and adapted to the betterment of
sanitary and health conditions in the
various parishes where the money is
expended. There are doubtless .
number of parishes in Louisiana will"
ing to appropriate for more extended
health work, but they are not able
to spend an amount sufficient to put
into effect such measures as are i'm
portant for the protection and pro-
motion of health.
The normal death rate in the
United States is fourteen for each
thousand. 1t can be lowered at least
one half. Typhoid, tuberculosis, ma
1aria and hookworm can be practical
ly eliminated from Louisiana. This
and more is the great purpose back
of the Lever bill Oh. R. 14l85).

Louisiana Notes
Police Grafters

The Lafourche Leader comments
editorially on the disclosure of graft
and an attempe to perpetuate vice
in the restricted district Of New Or
leans, in which several policemen
have been implicated. These men,
whose duty it is to uphold the law,
to preserve peace and Righteousness
used their office to cloak their ope-
rations as grafters and despoilers,
Commenting on the exposures, the
Leader says:
This all came about from the at
tempt Of the policemen to collect
blackmail money from respectable
white lady, who with her husbtnd and
children were unwilling residents of
the former segregated district This
shows to what extent these unscrup.
ulous officials, who draw their pay
as guardians of the residents of New
Orleans, will go in plying their ne
farious blackmailing business. If the
charges are proven true, an example
should be made of them. This, with
the recent Ritter case, have caused
the greatest Police upheavel that has
happened in many years IN New Or

Held on Serious Charge

Police of Lake Charles have locat-
ed Florence Milum. the 15-year-old
girl who mysteriously disappeared a
week ago while enroute from New
Orleans to Jennings, and developed
a scandal thereby which resulted in
the arrest of the man who the police
charge enticed her away from Jen-
nings after she arrived there and
found nobody waiting 70 take her
home. 1t is said by the police that
this man induced Her to accompany
him to Lake Charles, where they
went to rooming house over night
and next day went to his sisters
home. The man was placed under
arrest on serious charge and the
girl, it is understood, is being held
as the prosecuting witness against
him. The girl was sent from the
Episcopal home in New Orleans to
relatives in Jennings, but it appears
that upon her arrival in Jennings no
one met her and the man she accom-
panied to Lake Charles found her in
the station waiting room. After
hearing her story. he took her to
Lake Charles.-Lafayette Gazette.

so general was the interest among
delegates in the important league

committee on committees was approx

set to work, adjournment was taken
until 4 in the afternoon At in the
evening another session will be held,
but there is so much unfinished bust.
ness that it probably will be necessary
to extend the work over apother day.
Some interest may develop over
the election of officers. The nominal.
ing committee will have its slate ready
for the approval of the convention
this evening. Some terms on the
state board expire, and contests for
these places is possible.
All of the committees present their
reports at the evening session, and
Governor Lynn J. Frazier addresses
the convention.
