LAVA BUILDS MOUNTAIN
(Ry Associated Press)

HILO, r. H.. Aug. 26.-Lava flow
ing from the Kilauea volcano onto the
Kau desert, near here, in eight months
of activity has built up a miniature
mountain, several hundred feet high,
and two miles long and has covered rs
miles of country with thick coating
of volcanic deposit.
The Kau flow burst from the south
ern flank of the volcano, about six
miles from the main crater, December
p last. 1t is still in action and shows
few signs of diminishing in volume.
In point of duration of time the flow,
or combination of flows now running,
have been exceeded only once in the
history of Kilauea, by the flows of
lS80-81. which were active 10 months,
travelling more than 40 miles and
reached to within one mile of this city.
Volcano observers expect the present
flow to establish new duration rec

The Governments War on Venereal
Diseases


In it's peace work of trying to free
the entire nation from the menace Of
the disease of vice which. under the
stimulus of President Wilson and the
members of his cabinet, the United
States Public Health Service has un-
dertaken, there is no trace of paternal-
ism.
The establishment of free clinics for
the treatment of venereal disease; the
work of caring for the future of girls
who are forced by rigid administra-
tion of laws to give up careers CT
shame; the requiring of physicians
that they report the communicable
venereal diseases to the health au-
thorities, just as smallpox and other
communicable diseases are reported;
in these and other endeavors the gov
ideas of paternalism.
Nor is the federal government usur-
ping the task of the reformer. In the
suppression of prostitution, now scien-
tifically recognized as the great foun-
tain source from which venereal dis
eases spring, there is work for the
social reformer, the preacher, the
press.
By extensive and intelligent work
along reform lines, these agencies
may greatly aid the campaign which
the United States Public Health Serv-
ice is carrying on. But it must be
understood that the governments cam
paign against vice is as coldly scien-
tific as the war that was made on the
rats that carried the bubonic plague
in San Francisco or the determination
of the mosquitoes in Cuba and Panama
that were discovered to be carriers OF
yellow fever and malaria. Venereal
| diseases must be controlled.
