STATE BOARD OF HEALTH SuG
GeSTS cURSoRY TESTS BE
USED TO WEED OUT" DISEASE
INFESTED BOYS AND GIRLS.

Springfield H., Sept 6.-Health of
ticers are seriously considering the
problem of excluding communicable
diseases among children when schools
open. To this end DR.. |. d. Rawlings
director OF public health, has issued
the following instructions to health
officers:
Personnel.
This preliminary inspection can be
made by (al paid school health OF
licers. where these exist; (b) paid
or voluntary medical force; (c) train.
cd school nurses.
Method Of Procedure.
The person making this so.called
preliminary or superficial inspection
should visit each room and briefly in
struct each pupil, or have the teacher
do so, To loosen his garments at the
neck, thereby exposing the throat
also TO roll up his sleeves above the
elbows
The person making the examina
ton should stand with his back to Il
window where the light is good and
have the children press by in single
file The pupils in passing should ex-
pose the palms and the wrists Like
wise with the fingers OF one hand pull
down the eyelid,, exposing the con
Junctiva. Each pupil should also
open his mouth and protrude his ton
que for inspection. A hurried inspeC
ton OF this kind may be made with
out the child being touched by the
person making the examination.
Any child found with symptoms or
signs suggesting the presence of a
contagious disease should be asked ID
step to one side until the preliminary
inspection Of all the children in the
room is completed when the suspect
cd case should be carefully examined.
and II sufficient evidence is found to
justify such procedure the pupil
should be excluded from school, with
the request that he be examined by
his family physician. This more care.
full examination should include an in
spcction of the throat and where in
Dictated also of the feet.
Such superficial preliminary in
spection at the opening of school may
result in the exclusion from school OF
pupils with skin diseases, eye dis.
eases. cases of scarlet fever with des-
quamation or discharging ears, etc.

Raising $4,000 200, 900

Chairman Good of the House APP
preparations Committee in his speech
before the United States Chamber of
Commerce outlined the fiscal legis-
lation which the Administration is
thought by many to desire.
The estimated expenditures for
next year are placed by Mr. Good at
$4,000, 900, 900, and this sum he pur-
poses to raise by customs duties of
$400,000,000; from income and COR
poration taxes, $1,250, 900; from
miscellaneous taxes, S1,350,000,0O0,
and from general receipts post
office, etc., s50o,00o,000. He thinks
that by slightly higher levies on to-
bacco, cigars and cigarettes margin
of safety can be provided.
He would repeal the excess profits
and transportation taxes and greatly
reduce the surtaxes on income, and
believes this is feasible without Gre
ating turnover tax or greatly en-
larging luxury taxes. He allows
nothing for income from interest on
our loans to foreign governments, al
though the new British budget pro-
vides for interest payment by Great
Britain, the largest of our debtors.
The new Congress promises to be
cautious with respect to the imposi-
tion of new taxes. 1t understands
that the country expects reductions
and it is to begin by ending the ex-
cess profits tax, which penalties ef-
ficient business, and the transporta-
tion tax, which is in every way OBJ
jectionable, and by reducing the
surtaxes to levels that will cease to
force the very rich to invest in tax
exempt securities, and thus keep in
vestment funds away from produc-
tive enterprises.

The Roosevelt Half Nickel

There is no better memorial for
great national figure than a coin
Passed from hand to hand, treas
ured or spent according to taste or
necessity, it bears constant testi-
nony.
We have the Lincoln penny. How
often have people paused to look at
the well known features and have
thought a little Of his devotion to
duty.
The proposed Roosevelt 2h-cent
piece would not only be fit memorial
but would meet an economic need.
For years such a coin has been de-
manded. 1t would not only be a
convenience, but its fraction would
in the end save many millions
to buyers. Congress, having refused
the half cent, might at least give us
the half nickel, ever though it NAV

good business man. Yet every
child is born with q passion for ac-
quisitiveness that sooner or later
will interest him in figures Rail-
way maps will drive into his head a
sketchy geography Of his own coun-
try. Newspapers will reGcho the

most important, he is least likely to

If by technical grammar" is
meant the picturizing of sentences,
the diagraming of sentences, this
has doubtless been overdone in

OF right habits might we'll replace

Of Melville E. Stone, upon his re-
tirement from active management Of
The Associated Press, it is more elo-
quent than many eulogies to say that
he was content to be a reporter.
There was every tempta ton in his
great power, his control of the
largest and most efficient news
agency ever known, to editorialize, to
propagandize, to color facts in ac-
cordance with a personal bias.
Charges of bias have from time to
time been brought against The AS
sociated Press, but have always c.
lapsed.
There is an inescapable human ele-
ment in reporting, and the pursuit OF
facts is the most difficult and elusive
of all hunting. The Associated
Press under Mr.. Stone has long
and consistent record of painstaking-
ly fair effort to assemble and publish
viz u NCIAs ~ ID llOb IOO IuuCil w Say
that a standard has been set which
will influence American journaliam
for many years to come. 1t must also
be said that no factor has contrib
uted more essential service toward
the success of the American demo.
cratic experiment than this same
spirit of truth telling which Mr..
Stone made the ideal and practice Of
his organization.
Given the truth, false theory cam
not long deceive any one. Let the
newspapers of the country pursue
any other god, and popular govern
ment ceases to be possibility. In
the hour of his retirement there is
due to Mr.. Stone the appreciation Of
all his countrymen for a high service
steadfastly performed

Lest We Forget

Eighty-three thousand cases Of
war veterans seeking compensation
were on the files of the War Risk
Insurance Bureau last November
awaiting attention, according to a
statement of Senator Walsh of
Massachusetts in the Senate on
Wednesday.
Thousands Of wives and mothers
not only have had to suffer the loss
of husband or son but have also been
impoverished because during the
months between discharge and death
premium payments on their insur-
ance had lapsed. Men who had
served the country from beginning to
end were unable on leaving the army
to earn enough to pay the 81 monthly
en- their war risk policies, and thus
lost all the benefits of the sacrifice
they had made.
In Massachusetts the disabled and
sick soldiers were housed in hospitals
in conditions under which "a self-re-
specting community would not toler-
ate its incapacitated criminals to
live" There are an inadequacy of
medical aid and advice" the Senator
continued, "a shortage of the most
elementary hospital equipment and
a startling absence of discipline and
morale"
These charges are not unlike the
ones made by the American Legion,
and show again the great Importance
OF taking prompt action in the mat
ter. If even one-half the conditions
described by Senator Walsh still pre-
vail throughout the different sections
of the country our government is in
deed guilty of gross neglect and our
people of objectionable forgetful-
ness. 1t is only two years ago that

The Fish Resolution

The present obviously is not the
time for the consideration of the
resolution to withdraw our troops
from Germany, introduced by Con-
grossman Hamilton Fish jr.
1t IS true that the measure is de-
signed to follow the adoption of the
peace resolution, but it shows COM
mon misunderstanding of our rela-
tions with Germany. Even though
the passage Of the Knox resolution
may bring the war technically to an
end, the fruits of peace will not be
assured to ourselves or to our allies
until Germany settles down in
earnest to fulfill her duty to the
world. Seven years Of experience
should have made it clear that the
Germans are moved by no considera-
Slons of morality in their dealings
with other nations. They respect
only force. No change in the Ger
man ofllclal attitude has resulted
merely by attaching new labels to
the old German state.
The army of occupation is the
visible reminder to the German peo-
pie that we joined the Allies in win
ming the war. If we withdraw our
troops before the reparations oues-
ton has been settled it will be inter
preted as final proof that we ar.
not willing to see the fight through
The Germans will think that our in
terest in the enforcement of justice
has Jagged and they will be quick to
make capital of it.
When Germany shows her good
faith by her deeds it will be time
enough to consider withdrawing our
troops.

'Britons Over Here
To the Editor of The Tribune

10 the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: William Howard Gardiner in his
letter in to-day's Tribune submits cen
sus figures showing that for each Irish
man in the United States there ane
virtually two "Britons," and further
states that his figures should prove
lnterestin" to Irish and American poll
ticians. Let me ask Mr.. Gardiner: But
do the Irish politicians fear the
'Britons' in this country, or are the
American politicians concerned about
the 'Brlton' vote?" And again, "How
many 'Britons' ever become citizens ?n
The first thought of the Irish immi-
grant after disembarking from the
Ellis Island ferry is his naturalization
papers. Perhaps Mr.. Gardiner can
edify US further by showing how many
of the 1,133,967 "Britons" are citizens
as compared with the citizens among
the 1,o36,6So Irish.
Also, Mr.. Gardiner mentions S22.6a4
as coming from Canada and other
Britannia dominions and assumes that
they are all "Britons." The writer
wonders how many of them are Irish
or of Irish extraction.
Mr.. Gardiner is rather care free in
his use OF the word "Briton." Aren't
the real Britons the Celts, the Scotch,
Welsh, Irish, Manxmen and natives of
Brittany in France?
