Past Commander Beatty's testimo-

were found to be very bad, especially
as to sanitation. Every cot was ex.

lie talked to many patients and all
complained of the bugs. One patient
told him that at night a chair or
stand was left at the side Of the bed
| with medicine on It and the patient
could take the medicine as he chose.
He was told by nurse that no re-
cords We're kept by which the doctor
could tell the condition Of patient
during the night. He said he had
been told by the matron, the head
surgeon and nurse that there was
no inspection of the hospital. Food
served at noon was good and sub
sttlntial, he said.
in reply to question from the
board, Mr.. Beatty said he believed an
adequate force Of competent nurses
should be on duty night and day. He
said chart record should be kept Of
cases. as selected by the doctors.
Case Under Achievement.
The taking Of testimony closed at s
O'clock Friday and the record OF the
hearing and numerous exhibits were
turned over to the board OF control
Members OF the board seemed dis
posed to recommend reforms which
can be made only with an increase
In the appropriation for the mMnte-
nance of the home.
The case has been taken under ad-
lvisement and a decision will be given
later. The Mars case, which gave rise
to the hearing, led to a general In
velstigatlon. and opened the way for
thu presentation OF evidence by the
members OF the visiting committee.
The herings, held in assembly hall,
hare been largely attended. but opin-

merits Of the case. 1t is said. are d.

The new dining pavilion at River

of the park should take public pride
in the upkeen of the building and SEQ
thai. all rubbish is disposed OF after
picnic dinners are finished. Thought
less people can. in a short time, litter
up the pavilion to an extent that
others will not care to use 1t. To be
true. a caretaker Is employed at the
park. but ne should not have TO look
after the muss Of those for whose
convenience the pavilion has been
erected.
While probably there viii not be the
general objection raised TO the build
ing of cement sidewalks under the
city's program as there was a few
years ago. with the war on, the coun-
Gil should not compel the building Of
walks where sufficiently good walks
already are laid. Cement is extremely
high, and walks built this season will
prove expensive. Where walks are
needed badly the public Is entitled
to them. but where old ones will pass
muster they should be allowed to re-
main until new ones can be built on
cheaper market.

The Attorney General has offer
ed himself to you as a candidate
that you may have an opportunity
of approving "every phase" of the
administration of President Wilson.
There are many splendid achieve
ments of his administration, but
there are things which he has done
which l hope he himself regrets,
and you are asked to approve them
by voting for Mr.. Palmer.
Let me call your attention to two
things which ! disapprove and that
you can not approve.
During 1918 cotton had steadily
advanced in price until, about the
first of September, it reached thir-
ty-eight cents a pound. The Presi-
dent had a board, called the War
Industries Board, the Chairman of
which was Mr.. Barney Baruch. On
September 4th Mr.. Baruch issued a
statement that, with the approval
of the President, the War Indus
tries Board would appoint COM
Snittee 70 study cotton with q view
of stabiIizing prices. He issued en-
other statement September 9Th, an

things, they stated in their bVlle=
tins that the committee might re-
commend basic prices, and the Pres

would give; remove all competition
