Planning Rural Protection

In Outagamie county, Wisconsin
plans are being perfected to furnish
fire protection to the rural districts
near Appleton, the county seat. This
county will have about IS miles Of
concrete roads completed by early
fall, and will therefore be able to pro-
vide fire protection to large area.
It is planned to number the rural
mail boxes and a large map will be
posted on the wall of the engine
house showing the locations and unm-
hers of the mail boxes. They will
thus serve the purpose of the fire
alarm boxes in the city. The map

Time Has Come to Call Halt
On Cancellations, Lead
ers Declare.
SOLVENCY IS IMPAIRED
Philadelphia Interests Call
Meeting to Combat I'm
. businesslike Practice"

&c. PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. s.
Declaring that cancellations have
threatened the solvency of many
reputable concerns and that the
time has come to call a halt on
this unethical and unbusinesslike e
practice" Philadelphia textile in
terests have called a meeting to be
held at the Manufacturers Club
next Monday evening with a view
of enlisting the support OF textile
manufacturers throughout the
United States.
A letter has been sent to every
textile association in Philadelphia
and vicinity, saying that the object
Of the meeting next Monday is TO
formulate a tentative program for
a national conference on cancella-
tions at the earliest practicable
date. The letter is signed by the fol-
lowing:
Joseph r. Grundy. president of
the Pennsylvania Manufacturers
Association and of the Worsted
Spinners' Association; Charles ].
Webb, of Charles ]. Webb and Com
pany, wool and cotton yarn firm;
H. H Bosworth, president of the
Cloth Manufacturer Association
Fred A. Rakestraw, Secretary of the
Cotton Yarn MERCHANTS. Associa-
tion; John Fisler. worsted Spinners'
Association; William H. Folwell,
president of the Philadelphia Tex
tile Manufacturers Association; c.
Stanley Hurlbut, president of the
Full-fashioned Hosiery Manufacture
ers' Association; H. G. Fetterolf.
president of the National Whole
sale Floor Covering Association,
and Walter P. Rossmassler. repre-
senting the silk industry.
The letter follows, in part:
The purpose of this meeting is
to get a general exchange of opin-
ion. as it prevails in the various
branches OF the trade with respect
to the cancellation evil, and. from
the facts and information thus
gathered. to formulate a tentative
program for a national conference on
the subject at the earliest praCtic-
able date.
THE practice Of permitting in
discriminate cancellations is. as
every one in the business knows
not only unethical AID Unbusiness-
like, but is an entirely unnecessary
evil, and in the present period OF
sharp deflation it not only has dis
located the entire textile industry
but has seriously threatened, if not
actually impaired. the solvency OF
many reputable concerns.
"It must be obvious to all. there
fore. that the time has come to call
a halt.
Effective and permanent remedy
may be had through the united &C
tion of those whose vital interests
are involved and by the setting uT
of new standards and a stricter code
OF ethics within the business upon
a nationwide scope. This we pro-
pose to accomplish through a ma.
tional conference. but as a necessary
preliminary to that, this meeting OF
local representatives has beer
called"

ASYLUM AGAIN
PROBESUBJECT
Chicago Veterans Organi,
zation Is Sent Report
On St. Elizabeth's S.

From far-awav Chicago comes an
echo of recen; bombs exploded in
the investigation of conditions at
the Government Hospital for the In
sane. st. Elizabeth's. in the shape
of a request by a veterans organ
ization IN the Windy City for a
report on the hospitals treatment
of ex-Yank patients.
The report, sent Tuesday night by
Emil KekIch, newspaper cores
pondent, intimated that the 700 ex-
service men at the hospital seemed
underfed. The report of an in
spection tour of the hospital made
by a party interested in conditions
there, of which Kekich was a mem
ter. in part follows:
Patients Seem Dead
While we were in company with
Mr.. Harbaugh on the inspection trip
the patients were filing into the
dining room. and we were allowed
to stand in the corridor and watch
them as they passed by. All OF
these men, as l understand it. were
soldiers, former soldiers and wal
veterans. I closely watched the gen
eral appearance of these men and
practically all sf them impressed me
very unfavorably. Although it was
Sunday they were all dressed in
nondescript clothing; all seemed
dead lifeless and, of course, men
tally unsound, all of which might be
expected.
However. the thing that struck
me as being peculiarly COntradic-
tory was Mr. Harbaughs remark,
that it didn't make any difference
whether people were insane or not
the appetite was still there. l tried
to see IL there were any particular
but they all struck me as being un-
derfed and they certainly were not
marching to their MONDAY meal
with that eCiat that would char
acterize, say, men in the army or
at a school.
Didn't See Meal Served.
This. of course, is my own opin-
ion. and because of the fact tha,
Mr.. Harbaugh did not take us to
the dining room and show US the
food that was being eaten by the
patients, l have no means of judg-
ing whether my surmise in regard
to undernourishment had any foun-
dation."
