Federal, STATE, LOCAL
HEALTH WORK UNIFIED
CBy Associated Press)

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, June 2S.-The
relationship between federal health
health agencies is so direct and is
essential for success that the public
health service has practically formed
a partnership with state and local
health agencies for the development
of public health agency which does
not lose sight of the American prin-
ciple of local self-government, Assist
ant Surgeon General G. c. Pierce, Of
Washington, D. c., told the National
Conference of Social Work here today
In making this partnership effec-
tive, he said. the public health serv-
ice advocates the extension of federal
responsibility in the prevention OF
national and interstate spread of sick
ness. This extension of federal aid TO
states is justified by the fact that pre-
vention is peculiar in that disease
germs do not regard political bounda-
ries, and one state or community with
high standards of administration can
not protect itself against another
state or community with a sub-stand-
ard of health administration. In order
therefore to bring about an economical
and efficient administration for the
prevention a unified health service
should be maintained by the federal,
state and local government health
agencies.
The policy of the public health
service is to assist in developing state
health departments, especially those
divisions in the state health depart
ment whose effective operation in the
interests of the state itself tends to
prevent the spread Of disease from one
state to another.
During the last fiscal year, IS out
of As states have made the allotment
of federal funds placed at the disposal
of the interdepartmental- social hy-
giene board by appropriating equal
sums.
Only about 8 per cent of the rural
communities of the United States have
adequate health organizations"

BALTIMORE, June 2S.-"Men only
look for beauty; they don't care about
the real homemaker any longer" Vir-
ginia Hicks, 20 years old, a patient

PR0FITEERS IN PARIS
CHIEF PROBLEM Of
VISITING AMERICANS
CBy Associated Press)

PARIS, June 28-The effect of the
high cost of living in Paris upon tour
list trade, as indicated by the growing
frequency of complaints of eXtortion
by American visiting France, is occu-
plying the attention of the government.
The authorities hold that the tourists
have the cure largely in their own
hands; exaggerated prices being due
in large part to indiscriminate spend
ing by visitors, aided by the spend
thrift tendency of French profteers.
It is admitted that abuses practiced
in amusement resorts where meals,
wine and dancing are provided, have
their effect upon prices in general,
but how to correct that evil without
discouraging the most profitable trade
is a question.
Under Secretary of State Paisant,
discussing the question with Ameri-
cans, proposes publicity as a remedy.
He has invited American visitors to
join in a protest which will be pub
Iished in the Paris press, and he also
will take up personally individual
cases of extortion brought to his at
tention.
The most frequent causes Of COM
plant are charges for lodgings in
hotels and apartments. Mr.. Paisan
told the Americans he had decided to
ask hotels to publish their rates in
the papers. This remedy would not
however, affect apartments, which are
the subject of profiteering on scale
hitherto unknown.

PROPERTY OWNERS
MAY CLOSE PATHS
~ Associated Pressl

INDIANAPOLIS, June 2S.-Trails
and pathways along the waterfronts
of Indiana lakes may be closed up by
property owners Attorney General
Lesh ruled today on a question sub
mitted by the state department of con-
servation.
THE mere fact that the land is on
the bank of lake in the state would
not give the public greater rights to
travel thereover than they would have
over any other private property" de-
clared the attorney-generaTs opinion.
The question was provoked by the
action of some cottage owners at Lake
Maxinkuckee, who were said by Rich
ard Lieber of the conservation depart
ment. to have closed off pathways be-
tween their cottages and the like that
had existed there since the first cot
tages were built. Such action, Mr..
Lesh declared was legal unless the
owner had parted control by dedica-
ton or by prescription or had decided
a right-of-way.

SURMOUNT PHYSICAL
HANDICAP, IS URGE
TO DISABLED VETS
(Rv Associated Pressl

DETROIT, Mich, June 28.-The SUI
preme object of the Disabled Ameri-
can Veterans of the World War is to
inspire in its members a determine
ton to come back and to take their
places in the nation as self-supporting
and Independent citizens, Judge Rob
ert S. Marx, of Cincinnati, national
president, told the veterans at the
opening session today of the first an
nual convention.
1T is glorious thing to know that
our undertaking is succeeding" Judge
Marx said From every hand we
hear records Of men who have sur
mounted their physical handicap and
taken their places in industry. Wound
ed and disabled men of America to-
day are winning a greater victory
over the Kaiser than did the army Of
Pershing, for they are conquering the
disability inflicted by the Hun.
DepIores Hardness.
Deploring the hardness of the gov
eminent in providing for disabled men,
Judge Marx continued:
I'VE believe the time has come
when we are justified in speaking in
no uncertain terms. The war has
been over nearly three years and
there still is an urgent need for more
than 10000 beds for sick and disabled
ex-service men. Notwithstanding all
of the agitation, no adequate provision
has been made to take care Of tuber-
culosis, mental and nervous cases
When wounded were lying on TIE
field of battle there was no real man
who would not gladly have risked his
life to carry them to a first aid sta
ton, yet tuberculosis and mental
cases are lying virtually where they
were left on the field of battle, and
neither the men, the means, nor the
hospitals are available to rescue them.
Must Aid Comrades.
1T is our purpose to help our suf-
fering comrades to first aid station
and to make certain that such stations
are promptly provided
The organization, Judge Marx said,
also would call upon cities that prom
ised aid to wounded soldiers and have
failed them, to redeem their pledges.
Judge Marx declared the organiza-
ton represented more than half a mil
lion wounded or disabled service men
in the United States.
