GIVES RULES
FOR COLLECTION
OF GARBAGE

Trash

Health Officer Urges Cooperation on
part of Citizens-Plans Drawn TO
Make System go Per cent Eineieh'

I wish tc request the people OF
Alexandria to cooperate with the
Health Department in the collection
of garbage There are certain reg
ulations that define just wnat tne
term garbage" means, and how II
shall be stored" said DR.. l.. T.
Foulks, city health officer.
owe receive numerous complaints
about garbage not being collected
Some of these complaints are Just,
but many are not. In investigating
them. we often find that the. gar
bage can is partly filled with TIN
cans. bottles. paper and other trash
The garbage collectors will not re-
NOV, such stuff. Netting put gar
bage must be put in the garbage
can. All other stuff is classed as
trash and is handled by the city
trash carts. Then again, We often
find the garbage being kept in an
open box or old tin bucket without
any cover at all.
an two or three days, such gar
bage is unfit for any purpose, and
must be thrown on the dumps. 1t
should be remembered that all gar
bage collected in this city, is used
for feeding hogs"
Section a of the Garbage Regu-
lations" reads: Garbage, as the
word is made use of in this ordi-
nance, shall be understood to con-
sist of solid or semi-solid kitchen
refuse. subject to decay or putri-
faction, which was intended to be
used as food for man or animal,
with the exception of coffee
grounds and egg shellsf which are
hereby classified as trash and must
be excluded"
Sec. b reads: at shall be unlaw-
full for any person to deposit with
the garbage, any broken glass,
crockery or any form of trash. pois-
| onouS liquid or substances.
Corn shucks will be removed by
the garbage collector, but must not
be deposited in the garbage can, but
placed in convenient place and
container for the collector"
The ordinance also states that
the garbage must at all times be
kept in a place easily accessible to
the collector, and stored in a water
tight metallic can with cover that
will exclude water and flies.
The collection of garbage is one
of, if not the most difficult problems
any city has to handle, and l don't
know of any system now in opera
tion that is more than so per cent
efficient. In fact, - per cent is
about the average.
While our system is not Satisfac-
tory to this department, yet if we
had little better cooperation bv
the people, it would be as good
as the average. However, as it is,
it doesn't cost the tax payers a
cent. We have plans now drawn up
that we feel will make garbage col
lection in this city at least 80 per
| cent efficient,

THE STRIKE SITUATION AS IT
AFFECTS LOCAL RAILROADS

itself, its good running order, and the
remarkable morale of its vast per-
sonnel. the Southern, no less than the
Raltir ore and Ohio would be in posi-
ton to initiate such PROPOSAL from
its striking shopmen. but the strike IS
national in its scope, and in Jewell,
one finds Richelieu in the labor
world. Independent negotiations, to
he successful. would have to have the
sanction of the national officers. and
at the present moment, the national
officers have something else to think
about. AS in the case of the South
ern. It is a sort Of sympathy strike"
the, men are engaged in with re-
spect to some of the roads, hut
nevertheless. the men are out, and
until the strike situation can be dealt
with in some of it's broader asnects,
II is doubtful whether much head
way can be made with the several m
dependent movements.
For another thing the situation IS
far from critical as it affects the
Southern and it is not believed that
either the men or the executives are
driving for an immediate settlement
When the trouble came on the South
ern's rolling stock was found in eX-
cellent condition. At time when
MANY of the roads were putting INTO
practice all manner Of economies. the
directing heads of the Southern bent
every effort to maintain its equip
ment at its high level, and the answer
is partially found here to that ques-
tion which has had so many guessing
AS to how this great system could
keen its hundreds of trains moving
while making no effort to permanent
/ " fill the places of the strikers. There
is the circumstance too. that the
former EMPLOYEES of the Southern
have made little effort to hamper the
service. the men are ready to 20 back
TO work when their chief, jewell, says
the word, while on the other hand
there is no priority issue to rise up
IN plague the officials of the South
ern. once the time arrives to talk
business. All this gives an outline OF
what the policy of the Southern Rail
wav Company is TODAY, and what 1t IS
likely to remain for the next week or
so. barring some unforeseen move IN
the national field.

Washington, ID. CO. July IL
While a great many people are only
able to discern on-rushing disaster
in the offing, there are others, not
nearly so strong numerically, but IN
much better position to qualify as eX-
merits. who in viewing the strike sit
nation. are finding some hopeful
signs. The railroad strike in particu-
lar. as they see it, is running true
To form and, after things have grown
somewhat worse, perhaps within a
week, either some of the hard -6oilea
executives, or labor, will begin to
"back up" and shortly thereafter,
the trouble should be over until the
next strike. .
The railroad executives and espee-
tally those interested in the lines run
ming into Chicago, gave out state
ment Wednesday fairly eXudlng OPP
timism, but in the east there are a
number of railway executives VINO
look askance at the statement III
which it is claimed that thousands OF
new men have been recruited to take
the place of the striking shopmen.
Some of the best Informed harbor
doubt when it is proclaimed by many
of the roads that the strike can be
broken, that the priority rights of the
old men may be denied, and that IN
dependent shop crafts may be or
ganized. r.:..,
Such doubts spring from reflection
upon the efficiency and experience OF
the old men and, when the smoke OF
conflict and of stalled locomotives
shall have cleared away, many road
men of sound judgment will be sur
prised if it does not find many of the
old men back at work on their old
jobs. =,
There are men who have attained
eminence in the railway service,
too. who do not attach great deal
of Importance to the idea that the In
dependent agreements may be ar
rived at with their men by some OF
the roads, such as the Southern and
the Baltimore and Ohio. Of course 1t
may come to this. or to most any
thing else, but at the present moment
the difficulties that would attend such
an enterprise are fully realized. In

WASHINGTON
DAY BY DAY

Washington, July 81 Charges
that Secretary of the Treasury Mel
lon is actively engaged with the coal
and steel interests of the nation IN
an attempt to break down organized
labor and establish the principle of
the open shop in every great indus
try of the country have been made
bv labor leaders in the coal and rail
strikes.
The American Federation of La
Dor is expected to issue formal
statement within a few days and il
was learned today that the charges
will be aired in the Senate, probably
this week.
Secretary Mellon is charged with
using his influence in the cabinet to
prevent a settlement of the strike or
the theory that sooner or later the
rail and mine unions will be broken
as was the steel workers union IL
strike of last year. 1t is also charged
bv the labor leaders that Mellon Is
constantly bringing pressure to bear
against plans to get the union lead
ers together with the coal and rail
road magnates. Labor leaders furth-
err charge that it is secertarv Mellor
who is influencing the President
against the plan of the United Mine
Workers to get the miners and opera
tors into a Joint conference for set
tlemeut of their difficulties.
These charges against Secretary
Mellon are strongly denied by friends
of the Secretary who insist that he
has been using all his strength and
Influence for settlement of both the
strikes. They say that Mellon. has
on every occasion in cabinet meet
ngS. counSeled arbitration and the
getting together of the union lead
ers with the coal and rail executives
Furthermore they declare that he is
advising the rail and coal operators
to make an effort to get together with
their employ ees instead Of influenc-
ing the operators to stand firm as
charged by the labor leaders.
