SAYS HEALTH MUST
 BE TAUGHT FIRST
Dr. BraisIed Urges That Lesson of Health Begin
 In Kindergarten
By A.snnIa.sd prns,

New Orleans. Aprii 2l.-"Begin. the child's education by teacn.ns n;m health before anything else,' urged Dr. Wm. C. Braisled surgeon general of the United States navy and president-elect of the American Medical Association in an address delivered at the general ses- sion here tonight Of the delegates and guests to the seventy-first annual con Vention of the organization.
 The lessons of health, according to Dr, Braisled, should be taught in the kinder gartens and lower graGes of the primary schools with instruction increased anu extended as the pupil gpo~s.
 Our public schools then would become communities" he said. Specially trained teachers and special text books, he said, would -be necessary as we'll as more funds to support the institutions.
 He also advocated a department of health in Washington purely civilian in composition which would call to it's aid or give its assistance to all private or corporate forms of endeavor very much, he explained, as the army and navy call on the Carnegie foundation, Rockefeller Institute or American Red Cross
 Then we could coordinate efforts for improved health, he said, and make it continuous and progressive instead of desultory and sporadic, and many prob- lems would be diligently attacked which TOW, in spite of their importance, must wait until some great calamity excites public attention and arouses the sym pathy of a philanthropist.
 Dr. Braisled was introduced by Dr Alexander Lambert of New York, retir- ing president of the association.

 Revolution was necessary in Mexico,
 MT. Lind contended, to rectify social and
 economic conditions, though it will take
 decades to bring the people up to our
 standards" He denied with particular
 warmth that he had ever, as Examiner
 Kearful, for the committee asked, lat
 tributed all of the ills of Mexico to the
 influence of the Catholic church, and de-
 nied also that he had ever made such
 statements to Nelson Shaughnessy, for-

 What poor Mexico needs is educa
 tion," Mf. Lind declared, and 1t is
 very unfortunate that the influence of
 the Catholic Church has been against
 schools in Mexico. As in the United
 States its influence has not been in the direction of establishing and main- taining public schools"
 That he has ever said the church should be abolished as an institution in Mexico, or that he had said he ad- vocated the recognition of Carranza Test poor Mexico fell back into the clutches of the Catholic Church." MT Lind likewise denied
 At the conclusion of his account of the failure of his mission with Huerta, Mr Fearful asked for Mir. Lind's opin- |,ion as to the present policy that should be adopted towards Mexico. SHOULD BE PATIENT "Though I do not know what the present condition is," MT. Lind re- turned. .'it behooves us as a great neighbor of a weak country to be very patient, not to judge them as we would England, France or Canada as to their responsibility in interna- tional affairs
 DO you think we should refrain from insisting upon protection foi , American lives and property in Mexi- coz" Attorney Kearful persisted. "No, of course not, nor do l think the best protection will be afforded such interests by military, war-like attitude on our part" MT Lind re- sponded.
 When for five years running our strongest verbal representations have
 been disregarded," Attorney Kearfu continued, when 30,000 Americans have gone to financial ruin in Mexico when hundreds have been murdered and we find nothing but levity for oul

SHOULD FIGHT DOMINATION

"The Chamber of Commerce should make recommendations to both nation al conventions in favor of platform blanks against union labor domination. The party that will lead us to salva- tion is the party that will save us from this trouble.'
 A number of delegates briefly ex- pressed support of such a policy de- claring the convention could not con slider increased production without re- gard to transportation problems, which in turn led to the problem of organ ized labor"
 The report of the committee, signed by George A. Post of New York, chair man, declared railroads are entitled to receive from shippers and passengers rates that will pay them a living wage for services performed, and 1t is the duty of the public to insist that It's representatives in city councils, in the state legislatures and in the national Congress shall establish by legal en- actment a transportation policy that ia sound from a business standpoint.
 The report was unanimously adopted
 The foregoing commerce group to- night adopted resolutions offered by William c. Redfield of New York, for mer Secretary of Commerce, that the trade embargo against Russia be lifted and relations between citizens of the United States and Russia be resumed The resolutions specifically disclaimed any intentions to recognize thesoviet government.
 Speaking for the resolutions, MT Redfield said the soviet government was making the blockade "a prop to sustain their falling fortunes" by charging all their ills to it.

further representations, what should be our attitude?"
 That's not for me to answer" MT. Lind retorted T think the statement is much exaggerated. Many have sut- fered loss of lives and property from criminals in this country during the same period"
 Have you heard that any of our generals or high officials in public life were concerned with the losses?' the examiner pursued
 certainly not Mir. Lind said. "Of course, we can defend Americans to a certain extent along the border, and in the seaports, but to defend them in the interior would mean the mili- tary occupation of Mexico, as disas- trous to us as to Mexico. It's condi- tion I haven't reflected upon. There may come a time when force is in evitable."

 R. H. Angell, banker and lumber man, and acting mayor of Roanoke, Va, who precipitated the discussion, de- clared union labor now is in control of the railroads. absolutely, and if we wait a little while they will have a strangle hold upon us from which we cannot extricate ourselves.'
 Labor has made the challenge and we should accept it, for this fight which has been thrust upon us must be fought out some time" he said. 'It may as well be in 1920.'
 He said he was not antagonistic to union labor, nor to workingmen, but he was opposed to anything like the dictatory Plumb plan, which aims to first paralyze the railroads and then throw them into government control He said it was not possible flor rail road officials to wait upon the will of every little clerk" and added:
