SAYS WE DON'T APPRECIATE
THE BEAUTY OF DURANT

"You Durant people don't appre-
ciate the wonderful beauty of your
city," DR.. l. Frank Roach told ]. B.
Hickman, while here last week, as
they were driving over the city.
There is not city in Oklahoma that
has the natural beauty combined with
the natural commercial advantages
as has Durant, in my opinion" he
continued.
DR.. Roach declared this is the
most beautiful city in the state. He
was especially interested in the city
park in the northwest part of the
city. "lf capitalized for S150,000 and
improved it would be one Of the pref
test parks in America, but as it is,
its natural beauty is superb"
"Character combined with CONNER
cialism. should be the slogan of Du-
rant" he said.

TWELvE-HOUR DAY IN STEEL
MILLS TO BE ABOLISHED

President Harding advocated abo-
lition of the twelve-hour working
day in speech delivered before
forty-one representatives of the
steel industry, Thursday night of last
week. The steel manufacturers pres
ent indorsed the Presidents views
and it was decided to appoint COM
mittee of five to investigate and re-
port. The twelve-hour working day
in the steel mills has long been de-
nounced in union labor circles and
formed the central argument behind
the last steel strike. The strike did
not accomplish anything and the
twelve-hour day has continued. In a
speech to the United States Chamber
of Commerce Convention earlier in
the day the President said that the
country was on the eve of a great
business revival, and this he repeat
ed to the steel manufacturers.

DANGERS OF MALARIA
SHOWN BY DIR. LEWIS
Origin and Control of Ailment Com.
mon in This Section
(Dr. A. R. Lewis, State Health
Commissioner.

(Dr. A. R. Lewis, State Health
Commissioner.
Owing to the great prevalence of
malaria in some parts of the State
at the present time, | think it ad-
visable to call the attention of he
people to the great need of taking
preventative measures.
There are two fundamental princi-
pals which must first be understood
and accepted, as upon them are based
the measures to be adopted for the
prevention of malaria:
(1) Malaria is contracted only
through the bite of special mosqui-
to.
~ Man infects the mosquito, and
the mosquito, in turn infects the
man.
Malaria is disease due to a germ
which lives in the red blood cells in
the blood of man.
The chain of life of the malarial
germ is Man-to-Mosquito-to-man".
To prevent malaria we must there
fore, break the chain somewhere and
for this we may consider the ques-
tion under two heads:
"Avoid the mosquito bite.
This requires knowledge of the
life of habits of the mosquito that
transmits malaria, that almost invar-
iably bites at night or in some dark
shady place during the day, if hungry
Two measures easy of adoption will
give protection; carefully screen the
house, and use mosquito bars.
"Quinine as a prophylactic".
Quinine is sepcific in curing the
disease and also as a preventative
Persons exposed to malaria should
therefore, take small doses of quinine
5 gr. doses twice daily for two con-
secutive days each week, from May
1st to December 1st, which will pre-
vent malaria. Single dose for a child
should be l gr. for every years Of
age.

BUYING SENAT SEATS

Under the recent ruling by At
torney General Daugherty candidate
for the United States Senate may
spend, to secure seats in the Senate,
any amount of money which they or
their friends, personal or corporate,
can dig up. Daugherty held that the
decision of the Supreme Court in the
Newberry scandal had invalidated the
corrupt practices act in so far as
Senatorial elections are concerned
Now it will be necessary for Congress
to enact new legislation if it desires
to interfere or pretend to interfere,
with the wholesale purchase of seats
in the Senate this fall.

FRENCH BUDGET STILL
GREATER THAN REVENUE

The French budget for 1923 calls
for the outlay of 3,9O0,00O,O00 francs
in excess of income, or approximate
ly $780,000,000. The deficit will be
met by selling additional war bonds
and taxes on profits. The amount
is said to represent funds advanced
for restoring property destroyed in
the war and which is properly
chargeable to Germany. 1t is not
able that appropriations for both the
War and Navy Departments are
heavily increased compared with the
current year. desipte the pending
treaty for reduction in naval ap-
preparations. The United States
Treasury faces a deficit of $500,000,-
600 for the next fiscal year. Ac-
cording to reports, Great Britain is
the only European Nation which has
succeeded in reducing expenses to
a point below income.

HARDING WARNS ROADS
TO REDUCE FREIGHT RATES

President Harding Saturday night
told twenty representatives of the
largest railroads that they must eX-
pect considerable reduction in
freight rates on basic commodities.
They were told by the president that
the country was only at the beginning
of a rising tide Of prosperity that
would sweep greatly Augmented reve-
nue. into the Golfers of the railroads.
The present high rates, the president
said, were the most important barrier
to general business stimulation. and
the railway magnates were asked to
cooperate in preparing the way for a
complete return to normal conditions.

HAS PLAN FOR STRING OF
GOVERNMENT WAREHOUSES;

Thomas A. Edison, the inventor,
proposed a plan for the building of a
string of government warehouses for
the storage of products. His idea is
that farmers may store their products
until marketed, and receive certifi-
Gates up to 80 per cent of the value
of their goods, which would be Sc
curity for loans. Plans contemplate
holding the products a year. market
ing one-twelfth each month, to sta
bilize the country's supply of farm
products. Government officials are
studying the plan.
