Highways Measure Passed.
Robinson Bill Adopted BY
House 26G-77 After 40 Min
ufeS Of Heated Debate.

Washington, June 81. After 40 min
utes of heated debate the House today
passed the Pobinson Road bill. designed
particularly to keep highways, improved
by Federal funds, in good conpition.
The vote was 266 to n.
Although supported by majority of
the House Roads Committee. the bill
was vigorously opposed by Chairman
Dunn nd other members, who argued
that it would benefit sparsely settle d
States at the expense of populous ones.
Proponents contend the measure ould
facilitate the development of road and
benefit farmers especially. Under the
measure States would be given three
in which to establish funds for mainten-
ance of Federal-aid roads. Should a
State, after proper notification, fail with
in 100 days to make specified improve
ments of roads, the Federal Government
would undertake the work at the State
expense and until settlement was made
no further projects for Federal-aid con-
struction in that State would be approved.
The State, instead of counties or other
subdivisions. would be the unit in alloting
Federal funds. and the "a ne method of
opportionment would prevail as at pres
ent except that no State would State
would receive less than one-half of per
cent. of each years allotment. This
would increase the Federal contribution
for road improvements in Delaware,
Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Yer
mont

Dairyrnen May Build
Frederick Men Believe Own
Plant Would Enable them
to Get Higher Rates
From Dealers

A large number of Dairymen OF this
county, members of the Maryland and
Virginia Milk Producers Association,
with headquarters in Washington, met at
the Court House in Frederick on Satur-
day evening and voted to build and equip
a local milk receiving station. A CON-
mittee of five was appointed, which, with
the six county directors of the associa-
ton, will prepare report to finance the
project and submit it at another meeting
at the Court House Saturday evening.
1t was said that the new station, which
will cost approximately $4,000. could be
operated on a basis that will pay milk
producers from 4 to 6 cents per gallon
more than they are receiving al stations
now owned and conducted by outside
capital.
County Agent P. A. Hauver stated
the object of the meeting. Howard A.
Fawley, Petersvlle. director of the
association ard large shipper. intro
duced Dallas Berry, Fairfax County, Va.
president of the association. Mr.. Berry
reviewed the conditions under which
local milk producers market their milk.
He said this territory was the most val
liable for trade that Washington firms
have and that the bulk of the wealth
possessed by these owners was made in
handling milk produced in this county.
The difference in the price farmers OBJ
tanned for their milk and the price it was
sold to the trade in Washington very
clearly established. the fact that loca
producers were not getting fair price
for their product, and the only way tt
remedy the situation was for home pro-
ducers to finance plant where they
could obtain fair price.

Sale of Seals Expected
To Cut Death Rate Again

An annual health examination for all
citizens is the next measure in the war
against tuberculosis advocated by DR..
Haven Emerson, a director Of the New
York TubeAculosis Association. He
said:
"People need education in insurance
against tuberculosis, One-halY of the
people in New York who have active
tuberculosis are registered with the
Department OF Health, and only one
half Of those are under medical care.''
DR.. Emerson said. however, that the
death rate from tuberculosis for 1920
was the lowest ever known.
Since 1908, when the work Of fight
ing tuberculosis began, the death rate
throughout the country has fallen from
1853 to ia for 100000 OF the popula- =
tion," he said. "Ths has been esti-
mated as a saving of $4,000 lives q
year: In the last ten years alone the
death rate In New York City from
tuberculosis stood at 28O to 100. 600
population. In 1920 it was down to
126. In the next ten years with in
creased facilities it should be possi-
pie to cut our death rate from 1875 to
81 in 100000 persons"
To aid in the fight the association
hopes to sell 100000 Christmas seals
