One of the Most Efficient
Systems of Sanitation
Nearly 100 Years Old
Founder of American Public
Health Association and
Nurses Training School

EEMIRA, N. Y, Aug. 2s--Dr,
Stephen Smith. one of the most
famous of New York States physicians.
a pioneer in public health work and
fouader Of the American Public Health
Association, died here to-day. DR..
Smith was ninety-nine years old. He
would have celebrated his Tooth birth
day next February.
DR.. Smith died at the home Of his
daughter, Mrs. Walter C. Mason.
Death was due TO general debility, re-
sulting from his advanced age.
The Father of Public Sanitation in
New York was child when the first
railroad passenger train was run in the
United States. He was schoolboy at
an 0nondaga County public school.
scarcely yet in his teens. when Morse
invented the magnetic telegraph. He
was well-established practicing physi
clan, years before the first cable mes
sage was sent across the Atlantic. So
much for the span of his life In time.
Still more pertinent is 1t to recall that
he found New York devoid of public
sanitation, with death rate Of thirty
five or more to the thousand, and left it
with one Of the most efficient sanitary
systems In the world and death rate
Of twelve or thirteen.
Stephen Smith, son Of Lewis and
Chloe Benson Smith, was born in Onon-
daga County, N. Y, on February
49, 1929, and was educated at the local
schools. He studied medicine at
Geneva, N. Y, and at Buffalo under DR..
Frank Hamilton. Thence he came to
New York and was graduated from the
College Of Physicians and Surgeons,
Columbia University, in 1850. Imme-
diateiy thereafter he was appointed
one Of the medical staff OF Bellevue
Hospital, and thus served for two
years. He then engaged in private
practice, but retained his connection
with Bellevue as an attending surgeon.
From 1861 to 1865 he was professor of
surgery, and from 1865 to 1874 pro-
fessor Of anatomy, in Bellevue Hospital
Medical College. In the last-named
year he began long and distinguished
career as professor of clinical surgery
in the medical department Of New York
University, being also consulting sur
geon in Bellevue. st, Vincent's and
Columbus hospitals.
These activities, which might have
been sufficient to occupy mans full
time and strength, were but part of
his labors for the public health. He
early became writer as we'll as a
practitioner and teacher From 1853 to
1857 he was joint. editor and from 1857

tary conference. He was in 1872 the
chief founder and first president Of the
American Public Health Association.
He was for years president of the Tree
Planting Association Of New York.
By 10 means the leas. of his services
was the introduction Of trained nurses
into hospitals and the general care Of

training school for nurses In America.
Down TO 1872 the nurses employed at

from among women who had been
committed to the workhouse for
Drunkenness Then an agent Of the
State Board Of Charities was sent to
London to study the training school

Nightingale, and it was proposed to
organize such an Institution here.
Strange to say, some influential physi-
clans strongly opposed it, but D.. Smith
favored 1t and secured its adoption.
From that beginning the system has
extended universally throughout the
country.
DR.. Smith once gave striking illus
tration Of the utter inefficiency of the
sanitary service which existed in New
York before the uprising of the Citi-
zens' Association and the creation of
the Board of Health. There was then

His mother was ninety-seven when she

OVER G0UCHER COLLEGE
Effort to Break Institution Away
From Methodist Church to Meet
Strong Opposition.
special pispatch to The Star.

SPECIAL 20 Inc St3r.
BALTIMORE, Md. January 27-The
forces in favor of completing the
separation of Goucher College from
the Methodist Church and those who
wish to tighten the bonds, SO that
the college will be more under the
influence of the church than it has
been in the past. are expected to
stage a real fight before the legisla-
ture.
A committee consisting of the Rev.
c. w, Baldwin, who was one of the
original incorporators of the college,
and who is now one of its trustees;
the Rev. Frank G. Porter and the
Rev. John T. Ensor have been ap-
pointed to draw up a charter which
will represent the Methodist point of
view and which it is expected will
be submitted to the legislature in
opposition to the amended charter
which the board of trustees has sub
mitted. In the latter all bonds which
might be regarded as justifying the
belief that the college is Methodist
institution are cut.
The two sides in the controversy
are working along absolutely sepa-
rate lines since the conference be-
tween President Guth. Bishops Nc
DoweI and Anderson and the dis
trict superintendents. Those who
wish to separate the college from the
church are uncompromising in their
stand, and the representatives of the
church are equally determined to pre-
vent the separation.

By the Assnciated Press,

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 27.-Warning
that industry should not seek q
tariff protection which would serve
as wall against international trade
! and thereby stife trade revival. was
given last night by Senator Edge,
| republican. of New Jersey, in an ad
dress before the Industrial Club of
Chicago. Industrial America, he said,
| would profit more by getting back
! to work than by depending on legis-
| lation to restore economic health.
The New Jersey senator also at
tackled the Senate agricultural bloc
for what he termed the failure Of its
| members to represent the whole
country and to seek generai~rather
it was his fear that. the activity
Of the bloc would break down party
government and leave the country
| In the hands of groups or blocs.
In advocating the reasonable tariff

PEELED to give discretion" anywhere.
Must Buy to Sell.
"As a protectionist," the senator
| continued, Il still adhere to the
policy of a protective tariff, but 1
am not one of those protectionists
| who believe that the old methods
and policies will meet conditions
which now exist 1t is far different
to write a tariff bill today. We
are a creditor nation to the extent
| of fourteen or fifteen billions of dol
| lars. as compared to the days when
| the balance Of trade was fairly even
and equal. % We must recog
nize that trade cannot 60 along in
one direction; that If we sell We
! must buy, and If they have no gold
and we do not want any more gold
we must accept imports or our ex-
port trade must perish"
Mr.. Edge said that in writing the
| tariff bill consideration must be
| given to reviving the American mer-
chant marine adding that its future
| was inseparably linked with the pros
perity which this country and those
from which it buys enjoys. He add
| ed that in his opinion the sales tax
as a revenue-producer was gaining
| strength among senators. He be-
| lieved, he said, that 1t represented
the best way to insure continued
| prosperity, because 1t represented a
voluntary rather than compulsory
! tax. in that it was paid on voluntary
purchases.
