DON'T INFECT MOSQUITOES

Commenting on printed reports on

countries as Spain and the Duth East
Indies, the U. S. Public Health Serv-
ice calls attention to the fact that

trying to free a certain region in
Spain of malaria refuse to allow suf-
ferers from that disease to remain

which feed only at night. Few white

of the sufferers. come from consid-
cradle distance and seem to have
contracted malaria while working
there in previous years. Their blood
is examined and they are provided
with sufficient quinine to last them
two weeks and are told to 90 home

OF that period for another two weeks

The theory is of course. that if

tlent to bite thief cannot acquire ma

words. If men do not infect mosoui-
toes. mosquitoes will not infect men.

the House of Representative desire ia
express to you our earnest hope that
you will proclaim at the earliest pos
sible moment a general amnesty for
all persons who have been arrested
and convicted under the Espionage
Act and whose only offenses were in
the nature of expressions of opin-
ion and not of overt acts.
| Many OF these persons were SEN
fenced to terms of Imprisonment
more severe than those inflicted for
similar offenses by any other coun-
tries engaged in the war. They are
still in prison although every coun-
try in Europe has released prisoners
of the same class. We believe that
this great republic can afford and
ought to be equally humane. In the
interests of an era of good feeling
for which you, Mr.. President, are so
earnestly working, we express the
hope that you will proclaim a gen.
eral amnesty for political prisoners
whose only offense was written or
spoken opinions and not any overt
acts against the government"

Whatever may be the situation in

read. the following statements will
stand out: The owners were bound

and it was the clear intent of that
agreement that it be carried out in
good faith. The government of the

seemed to be in store.
The government of the United
States, through a cabinet officer, also
made it clear that while there was
no means of compelling a conference
and that while no legal process
would be used in advance of a strike,
there would be court action in the
event of a strike, which could mean
nothing other than the use of in
functions.
1t was shown conclusively by the
miners that the wage reduction de-
manded by the mine owners would
effect the price of coal not to exceed
cents per ton, while it would mean
virtual starvation for the miners.

is that the mine owners have restol

Paul Bunyan was a famous log

and would have lived happy ever
after, thus ending the story-if the
timber had held out. But it didn't,
and Paul went flat broke, and has
tened away to the yellow pine woods
of the South. where he took a con-
tract falling timber.
"Cut the stumps high" quoth Paul
There is timber enough here to sup
ply the earth forever" But soon the
camps began to close down and the
mills began to disappear. and when
the boss said "Cut 'em low" Paul
Bunyan quit and started for the Pa
cific Northwest. where there was
plenty of timber and no need of be-
ing so particular.
But he got an eye opener when he
crossed the treeless plains. 1t gave
him something to think about.
"Great Scott. cried Paul. as he slid
over the Cascades. "They are burn

which is that it is a wise man who
