NEW REPUBLICAN,
WHIP NOW SOUGHT
Congressman Now Fear PEG.
pie at Home More Than
Any Party Discipline.

5 WASHINGTON. Aug. "a Dis
cipline in the G. o. P. has gone to
the dogs. Republican leaders in
Congress are looking around for a
new Simon LeSree who can whip
obsteperous congressm en- into
line
The trouble is that so many
statesmen are back home fixing
their political fences and buildin s
cyclone cellars for November that
party leaders cant get a quorum
in the House.
Even the official whose duty it
is to round them up-a party Off
cial called the whip-jumped the
reservation himself!
When the House reconvened
after its recent recess there was
no quorum. And even Harold
Knutson of Minnesota, the G. O.
P. whip. was delinquent
Immediately there was talk OF
ousting him and naming a new
whip. Sidney Anderson. also OF
Minnesota, was suggested.
Nothing DOING said Anderson
Anderson felt he couldn't dis
ciplfne >others when-ss5
Eve got ITO go out to 1ndiana
in a day or two he said, land
think I'll just go on out home
while I'm about it. Anyway there's
nothing we can do here in a 1egis-
.lative way that will help our
chances in November. We may as
well go home and look after our
own campaigns. s@
That's the way four-ffths OF
House mem bers feel about it.
They used to toe the mark when
the whip cracked the party lash,
But. no wthey fear the folks at
home more than they do party
discipline.
"The party can take care OF it
self in Washington they say.
We've got our own worries back
home" a
Leaders say the House has
never been SO split as 1t is now
over important legislation Mean
while statesm ems minds are n OF
on the job Of legislating.1 They're
more afraid Of the whip the voters
will WELD Nov. than the G.. O.sP.

somebody to take the job.

SURVEY

State Department Of Health
Announces Willingness to
Undertake Work.

According to inform ation re-
5ceiyed byEDr. Clnuco H.. Layuaan,
chairman OF the public health
nursing service OF tho local chap.
ter OF the American Red Gross,
from w. T. Henshaw, state health
commissioner. a sanitary survey
OF Fairmont and Marion County
will be made in the near future.
On July II Doctor Laymsn te!e-
sgraphed Doctor Henshaw asking
for the survey and snyinS that it
was requested by nineseen civic
organizations, including the
Chamber Of Commerce. the Wo-
mans Club. the Business and Pro
fessional Women Club, the Ro-
tary Club, the Kiwanis Club. the
medical and dental societies,
health officers. educators and fra
ternal organizations.
IN reply DR.. Henshaw tele-
graphed the following:
"The state health dep artment
will I'm dertake the sanitary survey
Of Fairmont and Marion County
and doing fairly provided the city
and county authorities will adopt
a whole time health organization
to carry on the work after COM
pletion of the survey. Letter fol.
alowing g.
@ IN his letter dated July 10, Doc
tor Henshaw said:
'tSuppleme tarE to my telegram
of the 18th I have to advise that
this departm is very short Of
working personnel and will be for
the next two or three months.
Also, we are greatly Handicapped
for funds to do other tina routine
health work and especially, for the
purpose of carrying on specialized
programs. Be that as it may, we
will be very glad to assign a force
of epidemioloGists to Marion
County for the purpose of con-
Quoting a sanitary survey of the
county and Fairmont, provided we
have some assurance that the
nominating authorities Of the
county and city will agree to the
adoption Of the full time health
plan, for the purpose of carrying
on the follow-up work, which Is
absolutely necessary for the per-
manent good of the community.
Specialized programs have
been carried on against one dis
easegor another and against one
insanitary con ditioE or another at
various times for umDer OF
health departments throughout
the country and the ultim tie re-
suit has been negligible unless
full time health orsanizatio did
the follow-up work. and when
say a full time health organization
1 do not mean to put som cone in
charge as pensioner. or for
political service that may have
been rendered to one party or
another. but a health officer who
is eminently capable through tech
meal training. or vast PUBIC
health experience, or better stu,
both.
AS the city already has full
time health organization and at
recent meeting Of the County
Court it was decided to put on a
full time county health unit, the
sanitary survey will likely take
place within a few weeks.

Appeal Addressed to Chinese
by Man Expected to
Unite Nation.

IA PICKING, Aug. 24.-Chfna IS con
,fronted BY two serious problems :,
One is to effect unification of the
North and South. The other is to
induce her people to participate &C.
tilvely in public affairs. The 400
100000 Chinese are admittedly ap
athletic. This historic condition Is
being slowly overcome by the &C
tivities OF progressive thinkers, the
spread OF Chinese newspapers and
a growing disposition on the part
OF public men to take the public
into their confidence.
General WI Pei-fu, the recent vic
tor over Chang Tso.lin, has just
addressed an appeal to the nation.
He asks the. public to indicate its
wishes as to the country's future.

'tFor the past several years, SUI.
ferings have fallen upon China, one
after the other and there have been
continuous civil wars between
North and South" says the appeal.
"As a result the country is come
to a serious condition. Recently
the Manchurian party made more
trouble and plunged the country
into war. Fortunately through the
efforts OF faithful soldiers, the in
vading troops have been defeated
and the country is saved.
..The Republic Of China has been
esta blished for eleven years, but
the country has not been united
the constitution has not been res.
pected, and the troops have not
been organized. These d elects are
apparent. and remedy is needed.
During the past few days opinions
concerning the convocation OF a
parliament vary greatly. Some urge
the restoration of a first parlia-
ment, some the reconvention OF
the third one, while others urge
the calling of National Affairs
Conference in accordance with the
will of the people. Many others
propose the system Of provincial
autonomy.
These are good antidotes fol-
present day China. but II those who
respect the will of the people and
the principles of the laws do not
act concurrent1y it will be hard
to settle alltpolitical questions pro
perly. We are soldiers. and our
duty is to protect the nation and
the people We know nothing OF
the political situation. Therefore,
it is to be hoped that you, the emf
nent statesmen of our country, will
consider this matter and express
your views as to the unification Of
China at the earliest possible

The Rawlins volunteer fire de-

which had. however. been practical

which undoubtedly saved the build
