ARCTIC EXPLORERS EAT
REINDEER DINNER HERE
Stefansson Among Special Guests
at Local Hotel-See Boom
in Industry.

Five men whose careers have had
much to do with the exploration or
development of the Arctic regions last
night sat down to a reindeer dinner"
at local restaurant where a special
menu had been prepared with reindeer
meat from an Alaskan herd as the
chief Wand.
The five were Vilhjalmur Stefansson.
the world famous explorer. F.. Lorne
knight, associated with Mr.. Stefansson
and who in 1913 spent eight months
on an Arctic ice pack: DR.. E. w.
Nelson, chief of the biological survey
that is promoting the use of reindeer
in Alaska w. c. Henderson. assistant
chief. and Carl J. Lomen. host. who Is
the head of the Alaskan reindeer in
dustry.
The meat last night was from Mr..
Lomen's herd and was shipped to
Washington in a frozen condition. Mr..
StefansSon was especially interested in
the secasion. for he is associated with
the Hudson Bay Company, which is
now taking 5000 reindeer from Lap
land to Baffia Land. lying between Hud-
son bay and the Atlantic ocean, where
they expect to raise them for the world
markets
Mr.. Lomen explained last night that
the reindeer is domestic animal and
that it's flesh does not have a "gamey"
flavor which distinguishes other deer
meat. 1t has been described as having
the juiciness of good beefsteak and
something of the taste of venison.
Reindeer we're introduced into Alaska
in 1892, and the herds there now total
market about 5000 carcasses at pres
ent.

REPORT ON SCHOOL

W. B. Patterson Says SAM
tary Conditions at Hamilton
Not Bad as Claimed.

Admitting that the conditions at the
Hamilton public school for tubercular
infected children are not ideal. school
authorities last night branded as Eek
|aggerated" the report of a committee
OF the District Medical Society which
recently made survey Of the insti-
tuition. ...
terson, director of special schools,
who has direct control over the Ham
ilten tuberculosis school, that this in
stitution has long been the target of
sharp criticism by various persons
and organizations in Washington He
claims that every Improvement pos
sible on the meager appropriations al
lowed by Congress has been made at
the school. and maintains that the
conditions there as described in the
medical society committees report
are not as deplorable as pictured.
Dr. Joseph A. Murphy, supervising
medical inspector of the public
the report that the conditions at the
school are insanitary and that the
thIrty-four pupils do not receive prop
er attention. He stated that there is
nothing about the school which could
have detrimental effect upon the
health of the children.
The report of the medical society
committee charged that the school
building was more than forty years
old and is damp and musty. DR..
Murphy declared that. although old,
it is we'll renovated. The heating
plant at the school, he said. Is agreed
by engineers to be the best possible
for the purpose.
Mr. Patterson made it clear that
school officials are not averse to re-
location of the school in more ac-
cessible point in the city and in a
more modern building. He stated,
however. that the necessary appro-
priations cannot be obtained from
Congress for a new building. II
funds should be appropriated for a
new school. he believes that public
opposition would preclude the acqui-
sition of site for a school of this
type in the city proper. On the other
hand, Mr.. Patterson is of the opinion
that tuberculosis school should be
placed in the suburbs where the pu-
pills could get an abundance of fresh
air.

FARMERS TO BUILD
DISTRICT CREAMERY
FOR SURPLUS milk
Will Be Made Into Butter and
Cheese-1,OOO Gallons
Returned Daily.

The Maryland and Virginia turner's
who supply Washington with milk
decided at a meeting hero yesterday
to establish q cooperative plant in
the District to absorb the surplus Of
milk ana convert It into butter and
cheese.
According to an offlcial Of the pro-
ducers' association the venture will
not be undertaken primarily for
profit. but to give the farmers
method for disposing of milk which
they ship here in excess Of the dairy
mems needs.
Surplus Not Excessive.
At present. this official stated.
Washington consumes about $4,000
gallons of milk a day. There is at
this time, he said, a surplus of Dos
sibly a thousand gallons. This is not
regarded by the farmers as a large
surplus when compared with the
city's consumption.
Under the existing system, the
spokesman for the farmers said. some
dairymAn ship mix back to the farms
when they find they are receiving
more than their business requires.
With the proposed cooperative
plant, the surplus milk would be
made into by-products here instead
of being returned to the farms OFF
Gals made it plain that the farmers
do not contemplate going into the
retail butter and cheese business.
but probably will dispose Of their
goods wholesale.
No Further Reduction Planned.
No further reduction in the whole
sale price OF milk was considered by
the farmers at yesterdays meeting.
which was held at 1871 I street. The
producers claim they have reduced
prices in the past two months from
A to So cents per gallon to the local
dairymen. which has resulted in two
reductions in the retail price per
quart
Milk is now retailing at Is and Is
cents per quart, and some is being
disposed Of at II cents

the same they receive under existing
iaw-under the provisions of the

row by subcommittee of the Senate

These provisions must run the
gantiet in the fun committee. There

committeeman to the adoption of the
$3.50 bonus for the government en-
ployes. and it is sure to be included
in the bill when it is reported to the
Senate.
S12O Bonus May BE Opposed.
However, the proposal to grant the
policemen and firemen the bonus of S120
may meet resistance, it Is said.
The policemen and firemen, it is point
ed out. Were given substantial increases
in pay by special legislation last yses.
The bonus given otheS employees was
cut in two when it came to providing
for the policemen and firemen, ON ~
count Of the increases in pay granted
them
The same reason is given by the
subcommittee now for not allowing
them the full $240 bonus.
Declare $40 Bonus just.
Friends of the policemen and the
firemen, on the other hand. argue that

of $40. and point to the arduous and
dangerous service in which these men
are engaged.
1t is expected that the legisla tive
bill will be reported to the Senate
following the meeting of the appro-
priations committee tomorrow morn

Heating Explains Measure.
Edward Heating, former representa-

the bill was first introduced and pass
ed in the House of Representatives in
1913. and emphasized the fact that it
measure. He called attention to the
decreased value Of the dollar, assert
ing that the dollar OF 1913 was now
worth only so cents.
THE minimum wage BILL said Mr..
Heating, calls for minimum salary
to every government employe of 81 $50
per year, or 50 per day. The bill has
been passed in the House repeatedly,
but has been held up by few men
in the Senate.
The main opposition to this legis-
lation seems to be on the ground
that the government should not pay
50 day to a man If he Is not eff
Gent and that at present it il pay
ing high salaries to men who are
loahng on the job.
The answer to this is simple"

in decreased salaries. but increased
