Presents To Grand Jury Runors
Queen Anne'S ConstabIes Wink At

CentrevilIe, Md. Nov. IA con
! dition OF alleged laWlessness in
t Queen Anne's county for the past
| several months last week prompted
| Judge Philemon B. Hopper, Assocl-
ate Judge of the Circuit Court, to de-
! liver one of the most far-reaching
! charges to the grand jury ever heard
| in Queen Anne's county.
/ Judge Hopper charged the grand
! inquest to Investigate all cases and
| rumors and TO spare no expense III
bringing the guilty to justice. AS
/ consequence the entire week has been
taken up by Investigations, and
those called before the Jury have in
cluded all ages from school boys to
old men.
Judge Hopper's CharG
Judge Hopper's charge, III part,
follows:
There are rum0rs circulating in
this county which, If true, should
make every law-abiding citizen OF
county blush with shame at the
alarming and degrading condition
that exist here. I refer to, the rum
ors that intoxicating liquors are be-
! ing imported and sold in this COM
munity persfstently and almost open

to me that they have seen more
drunken people in the county in the
| last six months than they had OBJ

conditions in this county are alarm

case IT. is shown in records of the
State Health Department. Mortali-
T. from the disease has decreased Al
Fer cent. in the last 16 years.
A danger signal is seen in the fact
that the tuberculosis death rate
amonG negroes is roughly two and
Cne-third times higher than that for
whites IN 1904 the death rate per
10000 OF population among negroes
was 1927, compared with 1854 for
whites, and in 1920 it was 1884

slant contracts of the two races, Of
flcial3 consider correction OF this
condition vital to both.
Older People Not Exempt.
The figures explode q popular no
ton that tuberculosis is chiefly to be
feared by persons under 40. They
show that the toll OF the disease is
practically the same at all ages above
&c.
A somewhat higher rate is shown
for men than women. This is attri-
buted to Industrial employment,
with exposure of the lungs to flint,
steel and other harmful dust. 1t is
cited as an illustration of the import
ance of protective machinery.
Winning: Factors In Fight
Causes Of the decline in tuhercular
mortality are given as follows:
Establishment OF State Sana-
toria, which effect cures in many
early cases.
Reporting OF cases TO the
State Health Department, which
furnishes unlimited phophylac-
tic supplies.
Employment of visiting nurs-
es, who show patients how to
care for themselves and not
menace the Lealth of others.
Public education, emphasizing
the essentials for combating
tuberculosis - fresh air good
food and proper rest.
The high rate among colored peo-
plei ascribed to unhygienic living
habits and personal habits. Since
they handle food, care for children,
and have many other contracts, the
danger Of tuberculosis among them
is regarded as equally threatening
to the health of the whites.
The total death rate per 10000 of
from pulmonary and lar
yngeal tuberculosis declined from
21.6S il 1904 to 1899, 1859 in

Veterans cleanup campaign &c
signed to discover every disabled eX-
service man entitled TO government
compensation, medical attention or

THE OUTLOOK

There are interesting days ahead, but
the strong points more than counterbal
ance the weak points. The country is
doing business upon materially safer
price level, the people are spending less
and saving more, and January investors
never had a more attractive price level
at which to purchase safe securities
which must enhance in value later on
The situation in this regard is quite
extraordinary, for the American people,
within the closing weeks of 1920, cut
prices heroicalIy and introduced impor-
tant reforms. Through these changes a
basis has been laid for remarkable
achievements during 1921 and it seems
not too much to expect that the year
will witness sustained improvement in
many lines. The credit situation is still
acute and foreign governments are apply
ing to American bankers for large loans
for reconstruction purposes. But it is
absolutely true as the new year opens,
that the United States is the brightest
spot in the world which slowly but sure
ly is recovering from war uncertainties.

The proportion of killed to wounded is
about the same as in the Civil war al
though mortality from gnnshot wounds
in the World war was only 8 26 per cent
as compared with 1876 per cent in the
Civil war.
Of every thousand men sent to France,
ITO were admitted to hospitals as result
OF battle casualties, the report says and
nearly seven men out of every thousand
died as the result of wounds. Infantry
losses, were heaviest, 215. 6 out of every
10000 men of that army being wounded
and 1877 killed. The Signal Corps was
next with 1922 wounded and 8. Is killed
per 1000.
Deaths from wounds totalled 10, 691 or
slightly more than six per cent while
1853, $50 of the wounded, or TOT per cent,
wer e returned to duty, the remainder be-
ing invaded home for treatment or dis
charge. Shell wounds were by far the
most deadly.
