GOOD HEALTH IN DOLLARS AND
CENTS.

Upon the conservative estimate that
the financial value of human life is at
least $4,000, Maine suffered an unneces-
sary loss of $7,278, 900 last year.
In Maine last year there were 10,919
deaths of which one-third, or 3639, &C
cording to the above statement, might
have been prevented. Multiplying this
number of deaths by the $4,000 which the
commissioner conservatively names as a
low price to put upon adult human life,
the startling financial figure previously
mentioned is attained.
Looking at the situation in Maine from
the angle of child life, statistics filed at
Augusta show 2547 deaths of children
under ten years of age for 1918; and 1773
such deaths for last year. This shows a
saving of TIA child lives in the past
twelve month period, or estimating a
child life at the economic value of $1,000,
it means $774, 900 saved to the State.
These figures are used by DR.. Bristol,
State Commissioner of Health, in pre-
senting to Maine people the value of
public health work. In terms of finan-
cial loss from preventable deaths, the
work which the State Department of
Health is doing in checking and prevent
ing contagious disease in every part of
the State is of tremendous value.
Besides the financial loss, which is a
unique way in which to estimate the
death rate of this State, there is the
tremendous suffering and sorrow which
all these unnecessary deaths carry in
their wake. Compared to the financial
loss through unnecessary deaths, is the
$500. 600 appropriation which the commits
sioner is asking of the coming legislature
for the continuance and progress of health
work in Maine. In this one particular
field alone the death rate from preventive
causes, the commissioner points out that
health work is worthy of the support of
every citizen, as we'll as a generous ap~
preparation for its maintenance.

The Parker & Wescott store at Castine
is said not to have closed its doors for
the past ia years. 1t was founded on
April 20, 1906, by Benjamin Hook and
William Witherlie. The latter bought
the formers interest two years later and
in 1910, the firm name changed to With
erlie & Jarvis, which continued for "a
years. 1t was then William Witherlie &
Co from 1874 to 1855; for the next 20
years it was Witherlie & Co; and then
it was run by William H. Witherlie until
1892, when c. Fred Jones took it over
selling it in 1902 to the present owners.

1t has been announced from Washing
ton that the Panama Canal is now self
supporting. The figures given show that
during the last fiscal year the gross re-
ceipts were So, 955, 871, and that the op-
Grating expenses were Sc, 548. 272, leaving
profit of So, 1897, 500. The canal stands
to the credit of the United States as the
greatest engineering and constructive
success in the world. 1t was needed by
every commercial nation and was a ne
cessity to ours. It cost a little more
than four hundred and fifty million dol
lars. This vast sum of money has been
and is now part of our burden of ma
tional debt. Not.a dollar of it has been
paid from the receipts for tolls. Not un-
til the profits (0 are eight times greater
than last year, will the amount thereof
be sufficient to pay four and one. quarter
per cent interest on the cost OF the canal.
1t is doubtful if the use of the canal will
ever yield sum which will pay the CD.

y "Broken in health, but alert in mind"
This was the pith of a statement con.
corning President Wilson, recently made
by his private secretary, Mr.. Tumulty.
This is the most clarified and compre-
hensive statement which has yet been
made concerning the physical and men
tai condition of Mr.. Wilson. That he is
broken in physical health is an undis-
puted fact Those who think his mental
health is broken should thoughtfully read

Large numbers of immigrants from
Europe are going to California, accord
ing to W. j. Black, passenger traffic
manager of the, Santa F'e System. He
said they are mostly aliens who returned
to Europe to fight for their native coun-
tries.
''The California bound immigrants are
chiefly French, Italians and Greeks, who
are very good agriculturists and find in
the vineyards and orchards of California
the best opportunities for their abilities,
Mr.. Black said.
'Now that the war is over, most of
them are coming back and they are fur
nishing California with the largest stream
of immigration think it has ever had.
This has been going on some six months
and increasing slowly. l believe they
average between 600 and $50 month. J"

Tax Education and Collection

Former Tax Commissioner Roper is
authority for the statement that it costs
taxpayers in the United States about
$500, 600, 900 annually for expert advice
on making tax returns Either the Am
erican people must be acknowledged to
be remarkably stupid on this subject or
something must be wrong with the sys-
TEN of taxation.
They are in general aware that they
must pay taxes and as a rule are ready to
do SO with fairly good grace, reserying
only the right to do a certain amount
OF good Datured grumbling as the peroga-
tive that goes along with the duty. The
statement of MIR. Roper that only $685.
00O, 700 is spent annually to collect taxes,
as against the enormous sum for tax ed
ucatlon is substantial proof of this

however, make combination that is
little short of scandalous. Even though
we have become so accustomed to vast
sums and large figures that none is too
big for US to mention glibly, SIPS, 900, 900
is big lot of money to be expended for
no practical return that benefits the peo.

the United States, and tax educators are

A GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP
SCHEME.

At the termination of the war Secre-
tary Baker, "the ablest public man ever
knew" had on hand number of expen-
sive, ill-conceived and partially COM
pleted enterprises. What to do with
them was problem. An attempt to
solve it was made by a certain Senator
who did not know how silly he was, by
introducing a bill Is. 1890 to create a
Federal Corporation having the following
purposes and powers: To operate and de-
velop any plants or properties of the
United States, transferred to the cor
poration by the President or by the Sec-
rotary of War. To operate and develop
the Wilson Dam and Hydro-Electric
Power Plant, the steam electric plant at
Muscle Shoals and another similar plant
on the Warrior river, two explosive
plants to be transformed into plants for
the manufacture of fertilizer, all of which
plants were established for war purposes
and none of which produced anything
needed for the successful prosecution of
the war. The bill also gave the corpora
ton authority to lease or purchase other
properties and to take by condemnation
process such lands, materials, minerals,
patented processes, the property of pri-
vate competitors and any other thing
which the corporation might deem nee
essary in the conduct of its business.
The money necessary for these leases,
purchases, operations and developments,
was to come from the tax payers through
the medium of the United States treasury
and the property of the corporation was
to be exempt from all federal, State and
local taxation. Fearing that the above
provisions would not give government
ownership a strangle hold on the prose-
cution of business by citizens or by cor
porations under private management, it
was further provided that the Federal
corporation might sell the products of all
plants taken over or otherwise acquired,
to the consumers in the domestic and ex-
port markets in competition with estab-
lished merchants and producers.

imous and widespread bellies in the pot
ency of prenatal impressions transmitted
to the child. This was true OF the ignorant,
the layman and the medical man and the
scientist-until the close Of the seven.
teenth century. Up to that time there was
a blind unreasoning belief in maternal i'm.
pressions.
Then a controversial period began with
an attack on the notion that the unborn
child could be marked" by prenatal in,-
pressions. This attack was started by
Doctor Blondell, an Englishman, in the
early part Of the eighteenth century. AS
investigation proceeded. the facts ranged
themselves more and more against the old
popular theory and the subject was gradu-
ally taken out Of the realms Of controversy
and blind belief until the weight OF scien-
tifc opinion began to be arrayed strongly
against the old notion Of marked infants.
Curiously interesting episodes bearing
upon the subject of maternal impressions
of which there is any historical account.
Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, be-
lieved in them, and discussed the condi-
lions under which he thought they &C.
Cured. Galen. another celebrated Greek
physician, who practised in Rome A. d.

ors Trajan and Hadrian, gave instances
of maternal Impressions in the human fe-
male and in the lower animals in his work
ION the obstetric Art" The writings of
the great Roman physician CELSIUS CA. d.

likewise traces OF the belief in Hesiod, a

A law OF Lycurgus required the women
OF Sparta when pregnant to look upon
