WILL He SIGN IT7
President Gives Serious Thought to
Daylight Saving Repeal.

Washington. July 11.-President
Wilson still had before him today APP
preparation bills passed recently by
congress and it seemed doubtful
whether any of them would be signed
this week. The president was under
stood to feel that the measures, carry
ing appropriations of more than $2,-
100000. 900, deserved deliberate con-
sideration.
1t was indicated at the White House
that the president was devoting con-
siderable attention to the. rider on the
agricultural bill repeating the daylight
saving law. He has before him many
petitions. some urging that he sign
the bill and others that he veto it.
So far as could be ascertajned the
presidents mind still was open.
1t was If dicated the president had
not yet begun preparation of the ad-
dress to be delivered to the senate
when he presents the treaty with
France by which the United States
would go to that republics aid in case
OF unprovoked attack by Germany.

PREPARE FOR FLU
City of Topeka Ready To Fight
Next Epidemic.
Experts Agree on Anticipation
of Autumn Wave.

The city public health department is
laying plans to combat a possible cpl
demic of influenza this fall. Accord
ing to DR.. Earle G. Brown, city health
officer, thruout the entire world
health associations are planning to
forestall the recurrence OF an cpl
demic they firmly expect this autumn.
This morning Professor Sherwood,
professor of bacteriology of Kansas
university, and DR.. B. K. Kilbourne, of
the state board of health. conferred on
the matter with Commissioner McGif-
fert and Doctor Brown at the city hall.
They talked some of the possibility
Of the recurrence of influenza this
fall. In the opinion of the experts, it
may be expected. According to Pro-
fessor Sherwood, the influenza germ
has never been isolated. Very little is
known concerning the disease that-was
not known at the outset. 1t has baf-
fled and puzzled all pathologists and
proved a constant stumbling block TO
the medical profession. A thousand
different methods were used to fight
it. Cities were shut up and others ran
wide open. Varying claims were made
for different methods, and It is not
known what is best.
Stringent quarantine seemed to be

FIREMEN ON STRIKE
insurance Companies Threaten To
Cancel Parsons Policies.

insurance Companies Threaten To
Cancel Parsons Policies.
Because the fire department has
gone on n strike and there is no fire
protection for the city, fire insurance
companies are today threatening to
cancel all insurance policies in the
city Of Parsons. That fact was re-
ported in Topeka today. following a
strike which started in Parsons sew
eral days ago.
Prompt settlement Of the fipemen's
strike lie the only relief from q gen
eral cancellation of fire insurance
policies, according to reports. No
formal announcement of such action
has been received at the state insur-
ance department. Frank L. Travis,
state superintendent, stated today that
IL was not within the province Of the
department to prevent such action if
the companies desired to cancel poll
cies. He doubted. however, that such
a course would be taken.
Mayor Foley wired Travis several
days ago regarding the strike. Altho
II was reported from Parsons today
that the fire insurance companies con-
sidered withdrawal OF their policies.
no statement OF such action was sent
to the state department.
