individual has had a chance to
spread. From this standpoint, the
forty-four positive diagnosis tests
are of extreme value. However, af-
ter patient has been sick for
some time, there is a desire to be
free. At such times, the release
test is applied, and II 1t proves
negative repeatedly, the patient
may be released in safety. II is ev-
ident what the 220 positive tests
among cases seeking release meant
to the communities OF the state.
These patients were not set free at
a time when their freedom would
constitute a menace to the health
of the entire community.
Tuberculosis Work Light.
One notable fact in connection
with the laboratory is that 1t has
not been given over largely or even
in any noticeable degree to the ex-
animation of tuberculosis specimens.
At the 1919 legislature, there was
some sentiment against the opera
tion of a laboratory on the ground
that it would be swamped with tu-
berculosis work and have no time
for other diseases. The records of
the laboratory show nine examines
tions of tuberculosis sputum in Oc-
tober and ten in November.
OF much value to the state is
the widening use Of the laboratory
for the diagnosis of water and milk
supplies. Thirty-five examinations
of water from public supplies were
made in November. Other recent
months have averaged about twen-
ty such tests. The milk examina-
tions run about that figure during
the summer months, but are not as
important during the winter.
Seek HoOlSworm and Malaria.
Besides the usual diseases for
which tests are made at the labora-
tory, the recent reports show Its
use in making examinations for
malaria and hookworm. diseases

BRITISH LABOR PLANS
TO AID IRISH CLAIMS

London, Dec. ga movement
calculated by its organizers TO
place the full weight of British or
ganized labor in support of the
Irish lf-determination claims be-
gan with a specially convened con-
ference of the parliamentary labor
party in London today, at when
members of the party's Irish com
mission told of what they had OBJ
served and learned in Ireland.
A resolution was adopted unan-
imously challenging the govern
ment to disprove the commissions
accusations regarding reprisa's and
other outrages charged to the
crown forces.
The conference was held as a
curtain raiser for campaign in
behalf of self-determination to be
Iinaugurated by the laborites in
Manchester, January II, and con-
cluded in London February l5.
A. G. Cameron, chairman of to-
days conference, in opening the
lengthy discussion on the inquiry

question, Great Britain has not a
friend in the world"
Another resolution adopted by a
large majority at this afternoon s
session of the conference voices ap-
proval of the parliamentary labor
party's declaration regarding "out-
RACES conducted in the name of the
Sim Fein and reprisals by servants
of the crown"
It expresses satisfaction with the
efforts of the labor inquiry COM
mission to secure a cessation of all
violent and provocative actions
with a view to opening peace nego-
tiations between the government
and elected representative of the
Irish people. This resolution sug-
gests the following ground as a pos
sible basis for negotiation and set
Element of the Irish difficulties:
First, withdrawal of all armed
forces; second, placing of respon-
sibility for maintaining order in
each locality in Ireland on the To-
cal authorities. and third, provision
for immediate elections by proper
tional representation of a constitu-
ent assembly.
Brig. Gen. C. B. Thompson, who
accompanied the commission. de-
cIared that the soldiers in Ireland
were to large extent merely chill
dren and added:
"The army of occupation is mas
terful and criminal. The black and
tans are violent in thought and
deed. In addition to being the per-
petrators of the worst outrages,
they are the most provocative ele-
ment in that unhappy country"
General Thompson said he
thought the prime minister knows
what was happening in ireland,
but. he declared. is the tool of the
powerful clique who are working

The senator from Arizona, bent
on his mission of obtaining infor-
nation, walked into the White
House executive offices shortly af-
ter / o'clock and found Secretary
Tumulty absent. Being told that
the bill of which he was seeking
information was with the president
and having pressed White House
attaches vainly to announce to the
president his desire for a confer
ence, Senator Ashurst walked di-
rectly upon the path leading to the
residential section of the White
House, declaring that "as an Amer
lean citizen and a United States
senator" he proposed to obtain in
formation.
At the White House door, the
senator was met by an attendant
who led him to seat within and
went to seek Mrs. Wilson. The
president had just finished his
luncheon and had retired to his
study on the second floor. Mrs.
Wilson directed the White House
attendant to tell the senator he
would have to take up his business
first with Secretary Tumulty, as
the bill had not been received by
the president, whereupon Senator
Ashurst retired again to the ex-
ecutive offices in pursuit of the
bill.
After waiting for Secretary Tu-
multy for a short while, Senator
Ashurst left the executive offices
for the interior department, to
which bills relating to mining are
generally referred by the president.
He had gone only a couple of
blocks when the executive offices
received word that Mr.. Tumulty
was returning and a messenger was
dispatched after the senator. Mr..
Ashurst retraced his steps and
upon Mr.. Tumulty's arrival re-
quested frank and manly" state
ment as to the status of the bill. He
was informed by the secretary that
everything possible would be done
to expedite action on. the measure.
Senator Ashurst thereupon set out
again for the interior department
in quest of whatever information
might be obtained there.
Secretary Tumulty. during the
senator's absence and upon return
of Mr.. Wilson from his daily auto
mobile ride, went to the Whit

who have committed overt acts un-
der the prohibition statutes with
the view of eliminating them from
the list OF those who may handle
intoxicants next year.
The bureau has been aided In
this task. Mr.. Kramer said. by the
failure of many to apply for new
permits. This is especially true of
the wholesalers, he added. The
number who desire renewals of re-
tail licenses. however, has not de-
creased markedly, according to the
commissioner, although hundreds
of them will be refused because of
their records during the first year
of operation of the Volstead law.
Atlantic seaboard areas appar-
entity have provided the prohibition
enforcement agents with their
greatest problems and 1t is expect
ed that those districts will lose the
largest number of liquor dealers
under the plan. Mr.. Kramer said
the Illegal traffic in liquor had
been particularly menacing in the
cities from Boston to the Potomac
river. and he indicated that the
house cleaning would be thorough
in communities of that section.
Great Lakes cities and border
points, both Canadian and Mexi-
can. also have given trouble for the
enforcement corps, according to
the bureaus records, and Mr..
Kramer said that he planned to see
that fewer permits would be grant
ed in those regions hereafter.
The prohibition bureau was said
to be giving some attention also to
the sale of liquor by retail drug
gists. Although enforcement
agents have examined records of
druggists in some communities and
for the most part have found little
reason to revoke or cancel permits,
it was indicated that in the future
the druggist who strays from the
regulations prescribed for retail
sale will find himself unable to
handle distilled spirits of any sort.
Scrutiny of this class dealers is ex-
pected to be conducted more close
ly the next year.

until midnight January 4 to sign
or veto the bill which would extend
for six months the provisions of
the law requiring 800 worth of
work on mining claims before mid
night, December 81.
Senator Ashurst on one of his
visits declared that for the presi-
dent to sign the measure after De-
cember 81. would be like pardon
ing a man after he was hanged,
since hundreds of western mine
owners would be dlspossessed by
claim jumpers who he said were
waiting like black birds on a
fence" to file claims to the mines.
''To say the least" he added,
"protracted and very extensive liti-
cation would ensue should the
president fail to sign the bill be-
fore January l."
