Il have been looking through
some OF the commitment papers or
hose recently sent to Blackfoot."
Mr.. Burrell said Saturday. land the
grounds on which those people
have been sent to an asylum for the
insane could just as well be applied
to almost any person in Idaho.
1T looks to me as II some OF
these county farms have just been
unloading on the state all their old
and infirm charges simply because
they didn't want to take care OF
them"
Records OF the Blackfoot institu-
ton on file In the state department
of public welfare show hat since
June, rs persons have been COM
mitted to that asylum from Ada
county.
In his letter to the judges Mr..
Burrell points to some Of the rea-
sons for the increase in the number
of patients at the asylum. One OF
these is the drug or narcotic act
passed by the legislature in 1918.
He says:
II am advised by the superinten-
dent at Blackfoot that he has
handled more cases OF drug and
narcotic addicts in the past nine
months than during any previous
biennium since he has been in
charge Of the institution"
The reason for this, Mr. Burrell
believes, is that, those accustomed
to using liquor who have been de-
prived of 1t have turned to drugs to
satisfy their desires.
One Of the commissioners ideas
of reducing the number Of patients
at the institutions is through CO.

government. Many of the patients
are MeXicans and through an agree

unQuestoned but conservative natives present
another point Of view. They dislike the thought of
breaking away from the United States without more
on which to base their future policy than
they have at present Fear Of Japanese invasion is
strong in the islands and the natives feel safe only
long they under the protection Of the United
States. Tn thought Of going ahead their

conservative element. Gen. Wood and Commissioner

availng itself of the advantages of radiophone in
the prosaic but vital business of getting quotations
to the farmer.
A station at East Pittsburg was requisitioned
for this important move and farmers and others
within several hundred miles of that city were en-
abed to learn agricultural market conditions mmedi
atcly after market closings each day.
Sending the reports by radiophone will greatly
simplify their receipt by farmers and others direct
it is believed, nasmuch the operation of a radio
phone set does not require knowledge of wireless
codes. Instead of coming in dots and dashes the
market will be received in English as con-
versation over an ordinary telephone. At present
those desiring the radio market reports must make
arrangements with local experienced wireless opera
tors to receive and relay the messages to them.
