known as Oakland Inn. It will con-
tain twenty rooms and will be sup

fences. Hot and clod water and bath

convenience to the community.
The Oakland company is also ar

convenience of the officers. For some
time one of the residences has been
used for office purposes. The mate

building and the foundation has been
dug.
President Hunt is also going to
erect modern and handsome school
building. on one of the prominent
points on the mill ground so that 1t

The truth of the matter is that we
have in Newberry three of the best

betterment of the people who work
for the company. For their pleas

every way. And as result of this
there is the best of cooperation be-
tween the help and the men in
charge, and, too, we have as-fne set

DATE OF SIGNING PEACE
TREATY YET UNCERTAIN
Talk of Ultimatum-Possibility That
Date and Place Will be Named
by Allies for Germans.
(By the Associated Press.)

(by the Associated freSS.)
Another day has passed with the
delegates of the Allied and Associat-
ed powers in Paris awaiting in vain
definite word from the Germans as to
when they will be ready to sign the
peace treaty. Unofficial opinion in
the French capital is that the mo-
mentous event will not take place be-
fore Saturday and possibly not until
Monday.
The Council Of Four was informed
that during Wednesday the German
government was busily engaged in
trying to arrange the personnel Of its
delegation in Versailles.
The Germans thus far have given
mo intimation as to what men are
to be the choice Of the Bauer govern
ment. Unofficial advices indicate
that the cabinet is experiencing great
), difficulty in finding men who are
willing to take upon their shoulders
the duty of acknowledging in a docu-
ment which will become world his
toric, Germany's utter defeat in the
war and her unqualified acquiescence
TO the terms of the victors.
Reports are that Hermann Mueller
foreign secretary in the Bauer cabi-
net like DR.. Haniel Won Haimhausen,
declined to accept the onus for sign
ing treaty admittedly obnoxious to
the Germans.
2 Even a visit Wednesday to Yer
sailles, where the. members Of the
original German delegation still are,
by the general secretary Of the peace
conference, failed to bring forth any
knowledge of what was being done
in Germany toward the selection OF
plenipotentiaries.

Chapter 163 Of the acts of 1916, .

Chapter 163 Of the acts of 1916,
and controlling of cold-storage ware
houses. 1t requires them to pay $25
each year into the State Treasury for
license fees. It requires them to get
such licenses f. ON the State Board
of Health. 1t REQUIRES them to sub
NIT monthly reports of foodstuffs re-
ceived by and withdrawn from cold
storage. To prevent the hoarding or
accumulation cf foods in cold stor-
age it prohibits the keeping of foods
for more than II months, with the
possibility of Two extensions of 60
days each, but no more. 1t provides
penalties-fines and Jail sentences
for violations OF any part of the law.
Since the day it was passed this
law has been a piece of dead legisla-
tion. No part of it has been enforc
ed. There may have been boarded in
cold storage since 1916 great guam
titles of such foods as fresh meat
products and fresh meat, fish, game,
poultry, eggs and butter, and no
body but the cOld-storage nIa1 them
selves would or could know any
thing about it. Artificial shortages
could have been created in necessi-
ties of life.
License blanks have been printed,
but not one license has been issued.
Not a cent of license fee has been
collected. Not a single coid-storage
operator has been prosecuted. Every
cold-storage plant, in the State is
operating without license. Not one
has reported I'D the State Board of
Health since the law requiring such
reports monthly was passed.
DR.. John S. Fulton, Secretary of
the State Board of Health and DR..
Fred G. Blanck, State Commissioner
of Food and Drugs, explained that
no appropriation had been made to
make possible tie inspections neces-
sary to execute and enforce the law.
They agreed tha' it was a necessary
law, that it was designed 10 prevent
evil practices that might be respon-
sible for high prices, as well as poor
public health, bwt they said it was
useless without money.
1t has been stated that mot one
penny" had been appropriated to
make the cold-StoTage laws effective.
This was not entirely correct. 1t was
recalled yesterday by DR.. Blanck
that in 1918 the Legislature appro-
priated $1,000 for lone cold-storage
inspector" The State Board of
Health had asked for two inspectors
and one clerk, but the Legislature
cut the budget to one inspector.
This brought the State Board OF
Health itself face to face with the
problem of the high cost of living.

FOOD INQUIRY ON TODAY
Governors Commission VIII Begin
Probe on Excessive Pricas-kil-
Iian Ready For Work.

"Preposterous!' said William H.
Killian, first member of the high cost
of living committee to be appointed
bv Governor Harrington, speaking
yesterday of the cold-storage ware
house situation in Baltimore.
1T is a preposterous situation, !"
said Mr.. Killian, land the newspap-
ers have done great service in eX-
posing it. 1t is difficult to believe
that so important law exists on our
statute books and that it never has
been enforced. No Imagination is
needed to picture the evils that may
have been practiced through this ut
ter unconcern over matter SO vital
to the public"
Mr.. Killian forebore making any
announcement Of the course the Gov
ernor's committee probably would
follow, saying that he had not con-
suited with the Governor except to
consent to serve upon the cemnlittee.
He preferred to wait also, he said,
until he knew who the other mem
bers of the committee were to be
and what their ideas were.
Governor Harrington said the two
other members of the committee
will be appointed today and the fight
will begin at once.
1T is too early now," Mr.. Killian
said, "to try to declare what the
committee will do. We have very
serious problem confronting us-one
of the most serious that evert con-
fronted the State or the nation-Eand
we are going at it just as hard as
we know how"
There is no doubt that one OF the
first things the Governors commit
tee will consider will be the cold
storage warehouse situation. Mr.
Killian, commenting upon the State.
Board of Heatth's inability to exc
cute it's part OF the law governing
cold storage, said:
In the work of the State CoDser-
vation Commission we have some
times run against situations where
no money was available to do a Ger
tain thing. But where that thing sa
vitality affected the public welfare as
this cold-storage affair, our Conser-
vation Commission always has tried
to do something to meet the ener-
gency. An emergency like this ought
to be met by some decisive action,
funds or no funds"
Briefly stated, the coid-storage'
warehouse situation in Maryland to-
day is this:

enough to make it worth while to
undertake the execution of the cold
storage law. At best, the work
could have been only haif DONE
! Coupled with this was the fact that
the food and drug inspectors and the
sanitary inspectors already in the
States service were clamGring for
more money. Their salaries were
too small to support themselves and
their families
So the $1,000 appropriated by the
Legislature to execute and enforce
the cold-storage law was used by the
State'Board of Health to raise the sal
aries OF inspectors working under
other laws. This was done with Gov
ernor Harrington's approval it is
understood.
Two particular sections Of the cold
storage law, it is pointed out, un-
doubtedly have distinct bearing
upon the prices OF foods Section
III prohibits the storing OF food for
a period longer than II months, ex-
cept with the consent of the secre-
tary of the State Board OF Health
If his consent is asked he is requir-
ed to examine the food and deter
mine whether it is in proper condf@
tion for further storage. Then if he
grants an extension (Which cannot
be for more than so days), he is re-
quired to make a report showing the
reason for his action, the kinds and
amounts of the articles of food, and
the length of time it has been stored.
This report must be filed in his Office
and open to public inspection.
1t is easy to see that the enforce
ment of this law, coupled with regu-
lar inspections, would prevent the
accumulation of great stores of foods
in cold-storage. 1t also is easy to
see how it's non-enforcement would
work
The other section with vital bear
ing on the cost of living is 177-R,
which makes it unlawful Ito re-
turn to any colG-storage warehouse
any article of food which has been
once released from storage for the
purpose of placing it on the market
for sale"
A dealer would violate tn's section
by removing 500 chickens from cold
storage, anticipating brisk trade;
he might sell only 800, returning
the remaining 200 to cold storage,t to
sell later on at prevailing prices. If
the law were enforced he would be
unable to return his surplus geo
chickens to cold-storage, and they
would have to remain on Gale, un-
doubtedly at reduced price. This
would be an opportunity for the
consumer, but it would be unpleas-
ant for the dealer.
The committee will be completed
and the official fight will be begun
today. -

SCHOOL NOTES
tcontInued from nd weokl
BY supt. f. y. cole

The Commercial Section OF uur
State Teacher Association de.
monstrated quite clearly our
growth in this department during
the past few years.
Mr.. Goodell, president OF Al.
buquerque Business College, who
was our chairman, infor med us
that eleven years ago we had
only three commercial teachers
in our state, that we have now
more than forty and that our
meeting consisted of forty.one
members, some business men
filling the places of assent teach
ers.
We had an interesting talk
from Mrs. Wash on Some Im-
proved Methods in Shorthand
Teaching e." a discus sion on
Helps and Hints from the Gregg
School," Miss Bernice FRYE; an
address on Bookkeeping Courses
Tor High Schools" Mr. Kirkland;
"Sugg 81 ons TO Teachers OF
Typswrii ng." Miss Gladys Rye,
and a + re- vi address by Prof.
l.. A. Wul;L'd. of the New Mex
leo Norma University, subject:
When May We Recommend a
Student ~
Prof. Wolfard agrees with DR..
Cole in the assertion: "A pupil
should have at least two years
high school work as a foundation
for beginning the most technical
commercial work"
Mr.. Wolfard also emphasized
that our finished product, our
pupils, whom we furnish TO the
commercial world, should, first
of all, be Of coed moral character,
enriched by culture, proficiency,
social stability and refinement.
There is a movement for voca-
tional cooperation in which the
business men of our cities em-
ploy our students a few hours
each day, teachers giving credit
for work done. AS none of our
school are thoroughly equipped
for business practice, a pupil
needs some of this work to make
him commercially efficient. We
hope that ST." vols and cities may
be benefited by this cooperation.

apparatus for the emergency dis
infection of public water sup.
plies. This apparatus vii, lie
kept available in the state cap toll,
to be sent to any town or city
whose water supply becomes in
fected so as to cause an epidemic
IF typhoid fever or dysentery.
An officer of the Division of
Sanitary Engineering and Santa
ton will set up and operate the
apparatus where It is needed.
The apparatus applies dry
chlorine gas to the water in re
gulated amounts sufficient to kill
all disease germs, but u.flout
causing tastes or odors or injur-
ing the drinking quality of the
water. Many cities ia the United
States now chlorinate their water
supplies TO keep them safe from
disease. Three billion gallons of
water a day are thus protected
by chlorination.
The obtaining of this APP
partus is a part of the campo. gn
of the State Department of
Health TO obtain safe wafer sup
plies for the people of N, W Mex
leo.
There has been a progressive
abandonment of faith in, and
practice of, closing schools as a
means of controlling epidemics
affecting school children. Such
exceptions as occur relate to the
following special conditions: In
adequate medical supervision of
schools; severity of epidemics
that defes all efforts at control;
and epidemics In which the etio-
logy of the diseases is unknown,
such as infantile paralysis,
epidemic meningitis, and pos
sibly a few others.
The successful control of
epidemic disease among school
children requires:
|. Keeping the schools open,
with the possible exception of
~sparsely settled districts when
medical inspection cannot be
obtained and where aggregation
takes place only in the schools
2. Careful daily or frequent
periodical inspection of schools.
3, Careful provision for ex.
clusion tf cises and contacts,
emphasis being placed on clinical
data rather than upon fixed
periods of exclusion.
