FARMER HELPED
At WASHINGTON
Administration Is Liber-
al with Agricultural
Aid Legislation.

WASHINGTON, April 20-"When
the Republican party came into power
in March, 1921, its first effort was to
correct the wrongs perpetrated by the
Democratic administration, and the
most serious of these was the wrongs
imposed upon the American farmer"
declares the Republican Publicity as
ISOLATION, through its president, Hon.
Jonathan Bourne, Jr.
The Democratic administration had
hit the farmer with free trade tariff
law; hit him again by limiting prices
for his products during the war while
the prices of other commodities were
not limited; hit him again by the time
and manner of starting the deflation
program; and hit him again by refus-
ing to continue the war finance corpor-
alton. In the last days of the Wilson
administration, the Republican con-
gress passed bill to revive the war
finance corporation and when Wilson
vetoed the bill it was passed over his
veto. But it was not until the Repub-
licans came into control of the admin
istrative offices in March that any
thing could be done under that law.
The Wilson administration was op-
posed to doing anything for the farm
er. President Harding called a special
session of congress and one of its first
acts was the passage of an emergency
tariff law. The administration also

WASHINGTON ~ The downward
movement in prices abroad which has
characterized the past year has ap-
parently passed its climax and in a
considerable number of articles the
prices in the country of production
are higher than half year ago, and
IN few cases higher than those of a
year ago. OF the II imported articles,
OF which the reports of the depart
ment of commerce furnish average
monthly import prices, says the Trade
Record of the National City bank of
New York, nearly one-half showed
higher import prices in February
1922, than in September, 1921, half
year earlier, while about one-fourth
of the total number show prices high
er than at the same date last year. The

sold in the country from whence ex-
ported to the United States.

rrom a star cor~espordcn

ALBANY, Jan % Within tho NY,
week or two a measure to place New
York IN line with other states which
have taken advantage Of Federal aid
extended under the Sheppard 7owner
maternity bill will be introduced in
the Legislature.
It is as yet too early to predict how
legislative policies will shape them
selves in respect to this question
Governor Miller has said he is for
legislation which would benefit mothcrs
snd stimulate care OF infants. but at
the same tina he has said that he is
opposed To the extension Of Federal
functionings which draw on the Tress
ury Of the national government as
we'll as on those Of the state.
Proponents Of the Sheppard ~Towner
ACT have placed data at the disposal
OF legislative leaders to convince the In,
that urgent need exists why the state
should lend helping hand in the move
TO aid mothers aud babies. These
statistics show that in 1921 there were
10000 cases Of dead born children, that
more than 5000 died before they were
one month old and that 400 mothers
died in childbirth. II is held that this
death rate can be materially reduced

guard Against Epidemic

With thirty-fvc more deaths from in
f1uenza and pneumonia reported to the
Health Department yesterday, the pres
ent wave of the two diseases in New
York has developed to the proportions
Of mild epidemic, it was said last
night by Or. Royal S. Copeland, City
Health Commissioner.
Yesterdays official Health Depart
ment figures Of the progress of the
two diseases, which were given out by
DR.. Copeland, showed a total of A75 new
cases of influenza and 103 of pneumo-
MIA, as reported for the day. Twenty
nine deaths from pneumonia and six
from influenza were recorded as Che
fatalities of the day from the diseases.
On the corresponding day year ago
there were two deaths from influenza
and twenty-nine from pneumonia.
Copeland Yarns Public
Declaring that while tho prevailing
form in influenza is mlder than that
winch visited the city previously, the
present type of pneumonia is several
degrees worse, DR. Copeland issued a
warning to New Workers to take every
precaution against both diseases.
Some idea of the seriousness Of the
prevailing form of pneumonia may be
realized by the fact that it has caused
.oO9 deaths in New York CITY since
the first day of this month";" he said.
would like to mako one fact clear
TO residents Of the city. Influenza in
itself is not a fatal disease. 1t is
bronchial pneumonia which follows
and complicates it, which causes death.
And pneumonia is extremely likely to
follow influenza.
Many persons do not understand
this. Hence, when they acquire What
they think is merely a slight touch of
the hu.' they often refuse to take it
seriously and trust in luck to combat it.
:, Let me urge, in the strongest terms,
that any one having a suspicion OF a
cold 60 Immediately to physician for
doing so is folly of the worst kind.
Free Treatment Provided
Those who cannot afford to pay for
medical treatment should call at any
OF the borough headquarters Of the
( furnished them. Persons who wish to
obtain preventive vaccine NEGOTIATIONS
should call either on their physicians
or, If this is beyond their means, at
the Health Department stations.
A day like to-day, with plenty OF
sunshine overhead, but wet sidewalks
below is most deceiving, as wet feet
are productive sources of Influenza"
Dr.. Copeland blamed the congested
housing of the city a partly responsi.
BILE for the epidemic.
There is ne doubt that the housing
situation is a dreadful one, from the
health standpoint" he said. "Both in.
fuenza and pneumonia are transmitted
largely through intimate contact, and
OF course, the more congested housing
conditions arc the more intimate con.
tact becomes"
Asked last night for comment on the
situation, Samuel Untermyer, chief
counsel for the Lockwood housing com,
mittee, declined to add anything to hi.

bcr of Buildings Coming

Used common brick dropped last
week s. load of 5000, making the
current list price for this material de
livcred below 10th Street in Man
haitian E3S per load. against a former
price of $3t, according to the "Dow
Service Daily Building Reports Tho
drop is SAID to be due to tho great
volume OF demolition in progress.
Brick delivered above 10th Street
and in Long Island City. "Dow Re
ports says, now is priced at $685. a
drop Of $3.50. For attractive large
order business used brick could be
purchased at the week end at prices
even shading the above.
The remarkable thing about this
price reduction was that it was con-
temporaneous with a price advance of
81 in the price Of Hudson River com
mon brick, which is now listed at SIT
must be added the cost of handling,
haulagc and 10 per cent for delivered
prices).
No doubt exists that the price ad-
vance in this basic commodity is due
to q momcntary shortage OF brick in
the ',holesalc market, with supply cut
OF from every other source excepting
by rail. There were only eight barge
loads left in the Wholesale market un-
sold on Friday, and Raritan brick dis
trlbutors withdrew ell quotations be-
cause the waterways from New Jersey
brick ecnters were closed tightly by
ice. Tho Hudson at the week end was
closed down as far as Yonkers, with no
prospect Of new supply coming in
until mild weather broke up the ice
barrier. This price rise was partly ac-
counted for, too, by the fact that barge.
loads awaiting sale had to be protected
from the weather. thus adding to the
already heavy demorrage costs.
A number OF basic material dealers.
In an effort TO combat the manufac-
turefs' price advance, brought common
brick into this market by rail from
points north as far as Cohocs and
vicinity as we'll as from Connecticut.
Builders could not buy heavily dur
ing the recent cold spell because build
ing const stluction in the open was re-
tarded. he $l7 market was therefore
not we'll supported; and should brick
laying weather return there are suf-
hcicnc barge loads around the city
now to supply jobs for a short while

ditions is depended upon to break up
