MILK DEALERS
Health officer Fowler Rejects
I, New York Applications.
Court Fight lmpends.

One hundred and eighty-two ap-
plications for permits to ship milk
into the District from New York
State were rejected today by Dr..
William G. Fowler, District Health
Officer.
DR.. Fowler refused to issue the
permits, he stated, because the APP
plicants had failed to submit their
cattle for the tuberculin test.
LEGAL FIGHT IMPENDs.
Dr. Fowler's stand is expected TO
result in a legal night between the
District Health Department and the
men who applied for milk permits.
The health officer said today that he
would issue no permits to these APP
plicants until their cattle are tested
or unless the courts forced him TO.
The Is2 applications. according to
Or. Fowler, we're nled by an attorney
for the MerreIl Soule Company OF
New York. The farmers planned TO
ship their milk through this concern.
MAY SEEK COURTS.
IL is expected that this company
will ask the District Supreme Court
TO Issue an order compelling DR.. Fow-
Ter to issue the permits.
The law. according to DIR. Fowler,
provides that the health officer Issue
permits III he is satisfied with the
milk to be shipped into Washington.
Dr. Fowler said today he is not salts
fled with any milk to be shipped
where the cattle have not been sub
mitted to tuberculin test.
Washington's milk supply now
comes from Maryland and Virginia

FORSUBB0ARD
Wants Committee Picked From
Civic Associations to Con-
fer on Schools.

A special meeting of the Board Of
Education has been called for Wed
nesday afternoon to consider a sug-
gestion OF DR.. Abram Simon, board
resident, that a committee OF citizens
be named to cooperate with the
school board.
1t is believed members of the board
will act favorably on DR.. Simon 3
plan. Such a committee would be in
the nature of a "sub-board of educa-
ton" and its main work would be
to advise the board of school matters.
The tentative plan Is to have this
committee comprise the chairman of
the various school committees OF
Washington's civic organizations.
In the past the school board has
often appeared before Congress with
bills for school needs,
which citizen associations have OBJ
posed.
DR.. Simon hopes that when this
committee is formed there will be
no opposition by local organizations
before Congress when the school
board presents requests. He believes
united backing of citizens on every
measure OF the board before Congress
will be most beneficial to the school
system.

FIGHT ON RAzO
TO Be DROPPED.
Prohibition Bureau Doesn't
Think Case Can Be Made
Against FIavoring Co.

The case against the Razo Manu-
featuring Company, Of this city,
charged with manufacturing flavor
ing extracts which were being used
for beverage purposes, probably
will be dropped at the instance OF
the prohibition bureau. A wide diff
ference of opinion is reported be-
tween the Revenue Bureau and the
Prohibition Bureau. The latter, 1T is
said, believes the case should be
dropped, while the Revenue Bureau
thinks it should be pressed.
DOUBTS ABILITY TO MAKE CASE.
One OF the high officials of the pro
hibition bureau said today he did not
believe that the Government could
make a case out against the manufac-
turers OF Razo. He is OF the same
opinion about hundreds OF other man
ufacturers of bitters. and extracts
throughout the country. The test. he
said, will be, to prove the manufac-
turer knew his product was being
used for beverage purposes.
In evidence seized when the Razo
plant was raided, were several bar
rels OF alcohol. The manufacturers
of Razo have fought this seizure de-
claring il was withdrawn on genu'
inc permit. They have carried their
contention to the legal department
of the prohibition bureau, where, II Is
said, their claim has been sustained.
TRIED TO RETURN 1T.
Several weeks ago the legal depart
ment endeavored to give back TO the
Razo company the barrels of alcohol,
and even went so far as to have part
of the stun loaded on IA truck from
the storage warehouse. While the
driver of the truck was in the act of
loading the remainder of it on the
truck, the fact was discovered by
revenue agents, and they climbed up
into the truck and threw the barrels
Of alcohol OFF into the alley. They
contended that the legal department
OF the prohibition bureau did not have
the power to give the alcohol back to
the Razo company.
II has been charged that one of the
'proprietors Of Razo was seen dining
with an official of the prohibition bu-
ireau. Prohibition Comm issioner
X ramer says he cannot see that this
would alter the opinion of the official
on the case.
RAIDED THROUGH FOWLER.
The Razo company's factory en-
Tenth street northwest was raided by
revenue agents several months ago.
after DR.. Fowler, health officer for
the District of Colum bia, had started
fight against them on the grounds
that their fiavoring extract was being
sold for beverage purposes in viola
ton of law, and that it was endanger-
ing the health of the community.

pIoyes Will Determine Ac-
ton to Be Taken.

The magnitude of rent profiteering
in Washington will determine the
action to be taken by the Chief
Clerks Association regarding the
missionaries il is receiving from
employees in the Government depart
ments.
At the invitation Of Postmaster
Merritt o. Chance the association
met with him several weeks ago to
take up the matter of high cost Of

ing to send out questionnaires to
all Government workers in order to
secure information as to renting con-
dtions.
The association will meet with
Postmaster Chance next week to go
over the missionaries which have
been turned in.
They will then take action along
one of three lines. namely an appeal
to Congress for action, an appeal to
the Rent Commission, or a solution of
the problem through some form of
procedure. The extent of profiteer-
ing shown by the replies Will de-
termine which course is to be adopt
ed, it is uD' erstood.
Following the consideration of the
missionaries by the association
they will be turned over to special
committee composed of c. T.. Baldwin,
chief statistician of the Bureau of
Labor Statistics: Postmaster Chance,
and Edward Britton, private sec
vetary to Josephus Daniels This
committee will take the data up in
detail and make it's recommendation

THREATEN HOLY WAR
AGAINST GREAT BRITAIN
Mohammed Ali Sees Pope and
Tells of Plans Of Indian
MuSSulmanS.
ar Associated Press % Every Evening


Rome. July % Mohamed Ali, head Of
the Indian Mussulnan delegation, has
been received by Pope Benedict After
his audience at the Vatican he reported
that the Pontlff had heard his statement
svmpathetically and had expressed plea
sure at the spirit OF tolerance toward
other religions beng shown by the
Indian AluSSulman
Mohamcd said his principal protest
was because England mas not maintained
the pledges with respect To the holy
places. having instead practically abolish
ed the caliphate and placed the holy
places all under direct or indirect British
domination
After declaring that the entire east
has fallen into the hands Of LLOYD George.
Mohamed declared. I'VE cannot tolerate
British and French mandates over places
where the MuSsulmans consider them
elves as Gods and manditories
Mohamed explained the program which
the Indians intended carrying out against
Great Britain as follows
First: The return Of all decorations
and titles received from the British gov
eminent; second, the resignation Of posi-
tions occupied by Indians in the British
administration; third, the resignation Of
all Indian soldiers and policemen which
would prevent British occupation Of Aleso-
potamia and Palestine, and fourth. re-
fusal to pay taxes
If these actions were not sufficient
Mohamed added then holy war would be
! proclaimed
