 HEALTH CONDITIONS
Will Make Report Of Work as to
 Situation in Brazil

Para, Brazil, Dec. 1S.-A party of physicians, engineers and natural1sts sent by the Brazilian government ar rived here yesterday to investigate conditions of health and industry. They are to report on the sanitation and health of the cities and towns of the Brazilian coast from Para to Rlo de Janeiro, study health condlt1ons oI the fishermen of that coast. collect specments of fish and consider tho possibility of developing the fishing industry.
 The expedition is under the conl- n1and of Captain Frederico Villar of the Brazilian navy, who is d journal ist as well as a sailor, and is to be joined at Para by "an American scien- .tist, Dr. Field, who has been en- saged for this work by the minis try of marine according to the local press. @.
 The sovernm ent, it is said, plans the installation of up-to-date housing ac- commodation for men engaged in the fishery industry along the coast among whom, according to pr. de Moura be- longing to the expedition, there is much intestinal disease and hook worm due to present living conditions and entire lack of Sanitation.-
 Organization of this expedition is in line with the intelligent manner in which the Brazilian government has been working for years past to inn prove the general health of the na- tion. These efforts have resulted in entirely eradicating the plague of yellow fever from such ports as Rio Santos. Pernambuco, Para and Man aos which were once known as fever loles'' dreaded by ocean sailors. The general health conditions of the Am- azon valley have been improved be- yond recognition during recent years and yellow fever is as rare today in Para and Manaos as in New Orleans or Galveston. And malaria is no more prevalent here than in the southern part of the United States.
 The greater part of the valley is now healthy, and the so-called ma larial'' districts could be made heal thy if attention were paid to the in structions of authorities in the mat ter of living conditions, sanitation, hygiene, food and clothing. A these regions are far from the centers of population it is difficult to enforce the public health law. @ .aa.~-s

In September the question of wheth.
er or not convention will be called
to revise the constitution will be sub.
mitted to a vote of the people. The
only question really worth consider
ing, in the judgment Of The Herald
is whether or not 1t would be wise
at this time, under existing conditions
when old standards are being forgot
ten and there is abroad spirit OF un
rest and discomfort, to trust the cleo
ton of delegates to the people. The
old constitution is mighty good doc
ument, with all of its shortcomings
Would the people of Tennessee today
elect body that could be trusted to
make any lasting improvements in
that document? The Herald very
frankly confesses. that it has many
serious doubts on this point. It Is by
no means persuaded that, the people
would improve much on their legisla
lures in naming delegates to consti
tutiOnal convention. That is the ques
ton that must be seriously considered
before a convention is called.

THE ROAD PROPOSITION.

a To get forty-three miles of first
class, permanent highways, without
any expense to the county, except
one-third of the initial cost of con.
struction, is assuredly a proposition
that should commend itself to every
business man in the city and county.
The roads to be constructed are
among the most important in the
state. The county will contribute
about $4,000 mile to their construc-
ton. The balance will be provided
by the state and federal governments.
The upkeep forever after will be pro
vided by the state and federal gov
ernments. The county tax for road
purposes will be forever relieved of
the burden of upkeep on these roads.
This is simple business proposition
that ought to be accepted by the coun-
ty court Then as other federal and
state revenues become available
similar arrangements should be made
for the construction of other import.
ant highways of the county. The
acceptance Of the state engineers
offer will leave larger sum for
work on other main highways and
cross roads. sss '''

is one of the largest contributors to

of the state. He gave $4,000 to the
endowment Of the great university of

one time $4,000 for the churchs war
activities. But he does not confine
his gifts for goodly purposes to his

NEW CONSTITUTION.

That Tennessee would profit i'm
mensely by many reforms in state
and county government that can be
made only. through revision of its
organic law will hardly be disputed.
We do not have efficientggovernment
iii this state either in our general or
our local governments. There is es-
pecially a,lack of co-ordination in our
county governmental agencies. Each
They are not required to answer to
any central authority with the result
that it is oftimes difficult, if not inn
possible to fix responsibility for fail
ures In government. We have too
many separate agencies of govern
ment This makes government not
only more expensive, but less efficient
than IL would otherwise be. There
ought to be a consolidation of several
Of the county Offices and UBIQUITOUS
fee System should be abolished and
every agent of government given a
certain fixed compensation, ALI fees be-
ing converted into the county treasu-
~.
The same criticism will apply in a
measure to the state government where
several OF the executive officers are
responsible to altogether different
agencies. The treasurer, comptroller
and secretary of state, should be re-
sponsible TO the governor who ought
10 be in fact the responsible head OF
the state government In order to
make these changes there must be a
new constitution. The present consti-
tution is archaic in many respects,
particularly so with respect to levying
taxes. An income tax ought to be per-
taitted In this state. 1t Is the faifest
