purpose of better looking after the in
terests of the town and community.
Saratoga has long needed such an or
ganiZation but previous efforts have
not resulted in any great degree of sue
cess. a Commercial Club has been
maintained in II very limited way the
past three years. but on account of
lack of cooperation and membership
its activities have been limited almost
altogether to what could be done by
correspondence, replying to inquiries
concerning the country, public land OPP
portunitics. etc.
The plan for the present organiza-
ton is a little different from others
formed here. in hat its principal eff
forts will be along lines of work that
can be handled by the members them
selves. by main strength and awk-
wardneSs. rather than projects which
would require great expense. 1t has
been the experience of many persons
who have belonged to various small
town clubs, that they are more often
killed or ~disorganiZed through lack of
money to carry through the too-large
projects which have been attempted.
Various lines of work have been out
lined i'll the preliminary discussions
and it has been decided that "A great
many things that will result in bene-
fit to the town and people can be ac-
complished with just n willingness to
work. and without any great expense.
and these projects will be taken alp
by the membership at once.
The town needs such an organization
and it is to be hoped this one may
prove to be IA permanent institution.

DENY FAMINE REPORT
Southern States Resent Rumor
of Epidemic of PeIIagra.
Georgia State Senate Has Adopted
Resolution Denouncing Statement
as Absolutely Untrue.

Atlanta, Ca, July 2S.-The South
east reSents the statement that fam
inc condition exists in this section and
that a result of this famine is an
epidemic of pellagra.
Every state in this section has Of
fered a denial of the reports and in
one state-Georgia-t state senate
has adopted a resolution denouncing
the statement that epidemic pellagra
exists in Georgia as absolutely untrue.
The press of Florida takes the posi-
ton that the statement made in Wash
ington was for the express purpose of
showing that the administration has
''magnanimously come TO the rescue of
suffering people"
Newspapers of that state devoted
much space to what they termed an
effort to carry the real truth to the
people and to offset as far as possible
the injury already done. 1t was de-
clared that such propaganda" would
destroy the morals of many people in
the South as well as discourage north
ern capital seeking southern invest
ment fields.
The Florida board Of health de-
nounced the statements as untrue.
The state board of health in Georgia
denounced the reports, declaring pei
lagra is no worse than usual.
Mississippi, while admitting a great
increase in the number of cases, de-
clared it is not alarming.
The North Carolina board of health
issued a statement denying that an
epidemic Of pellagra exists In that
|. state.
Officials in Alabama declared pei
4 lagra is on the decrease in that state.
/ The number of cases has fallen grad
ually until it now is negligible, it was
stated.
Investigation in Louisiana failed to
disclose a single case of the disease.
Inhabitants of that state are resent
full over the report.
Arkansas reported pellagra on the
decrease and denied semi-famine con-
ditiOnS.
There are 56 cases of pellagra in
Memphis, but board of health officials
in that state declare the situation is
not alarming.
Pellagra is not a contagious nor an
infectious disease. 1t is contracted by
living on an unbalanced diet, ususally
too freely laden with green corn. 1t
corresponds in the South to the scurvy
in the North, which results from eat
ing to much meat without vegetables.
Washington, July 2S.-Despite the
protests from the South, the public
health service is pushing ahead with
plans to combat pellagra.
