Germany has forced her way into
the league discussions. The whole
German situation will be canvassed
Thursday when her protest against
the distribution Of her colonies under
mandate is TO be discussed. The as
'sembly put the question on the
Thursday calendar when +. ID. Millen.
Australia, demanded a decision. Mill
len. with The assistance OF President
Hyman>, carried the Tight through.
NiNani, OF France; Tittoni. OF Italy,
and BalfOur, OF Great Britain, usually
TAT the forefront In any discussion
bearing on the Germans, took no part
In the debate.
In an Interview today Millen de
clared:
1t was necessary 10 call a show
down on Germany's impudence.
Berlin was inspired by two mo-
tlves in sending that impertinent note
threatening that she would no longer
consider herself bound by he colonies
clause Of ,lte treat.
"She hoped to gain a disruption OF
the league and disagreements among
sleague members. Then she hopd 10
obtain pOsuuopnment Of distribution
OF mandates until she become a mem
Der OF the league, qualities as a man
'datOry power herself and thus again
obtains control OF her former col
Onies
6 Australia will insist on a distri-
button Of mandates as previously
agreed upon. We are opposed "a
giving Germany the slightest consid-
traliOn.
1T is none Of Berlin,s business how
the mandates are handled. Her right.
- the territories were sacrificed for
ever. Whether the supreme council
or the league Is entitled TO dispos'
OF them is a purely technical mattti
r. between the allies and the leagire.
Mlllen declared he intended 10 de
mand today that Germany's iactlc
BE exposed" He expected full sup
port from France and Belgium.
The assembly practically decided
yesterday 10 await the new admins

Dealhs From Diarrhoeal D.seases.

Deaths From DiarThOeal Diseases.
The number OF deaths from diar-
rhdeol dis lses OF children. under ,
years OF age has long been Considered
a reliable index OF the efficiency OF
child welfare work. Pure water, pure
milk and proper supervision by
nurses will always keep the rate
down. A study OF the deaths from
these diseases during the past iiNe
summers shows that The reduction
has been even greater than the gen.
eral saving In infa-t life. During the
summer OF 1917. these diseases caused
80 per cent Of the total deaths under
? years OF age, during 1918 they
caus d 30 per cent. and during the
ton in deaths from all causes, dlar-
rhOeal diseases caused only AZ per
cent. OF the total d aihs under two
years OF age.
This saving may be emphasized
more strkingly by stating that In
each summer OF the years 1916, 1917
and 1918 there were more deaths from
dIarrhOeal diseases among childrn
under years OF age In the city OF
Wilmington alone than there were in
the entire State during the summer
OF 1919.
Commenting on the figures given,
/ the Health News says:
| About 100 fewer graves have been
dug In Delaware In each Of The last
two summers AZ a result OF child
welfare work. not 10 m niion the
saving during the other nine months
OF the year This rs not theory. but
a fact based upon the death records
on ille at the ONCE Of the state Board
Of Health. All who believe that Della
ware babies are worth saving will
certainly insist that we continue "a
save at least this number OF lives
each year In the future. Many more
lives could be saved n funds were
availabls for the extension OF IN,
work. so that every mother could
have the advice and help OF a physi-
clan or nursa. Municipal authorities
could also save many infant lives, I
N ey would properly safeguard puhlii
milk supplies. the only food tina
many OF our babies ever receive.
If your own child were sick, yot
would spend any amount OF money K
restore 10 TO health The STATE is re-
sponsible for an the children in thl
Stale, and every voter has a share IN
this responsibility. Will we continue
to save our babies. or shall we le
them die, as In former years2"
