moral. aGG M8W
The greatest asset of any city or
town is the health of the citizens
and the officials who secure this is
the highest degree are those who ap-
preciate the responsibility placed up
on them in this very important mat
ter.
Preventative measures in CON
serving the health of the community
records success in direct ratio to the
number of lives saved and it is pleas
ing to note that the statistics of the
last century show an increase of
fifteen years in the average human
life. There is reason to hope that, in
the future, this increase may be du-
plicated in considerably shorter
time, if earnest use is made of pres
ent day science.
"The plain fact is that not only
does ignorance breed disease but the
converse is almost as true, that di-
sease breeds ignorance, immortality
and strife. In the light Of the scien-
tifc work at the present time, d.
sease in its horrible wholesale form
is comfortable if it cannot be entire
ly eliminated. This control or elm
nation is possible only when there
is an awakening of the sense of re-
aponsibIlity on the part of those who
have been elevated to the high places
in government. Short sighted hu-
mainly fails to appreciate natures
gifts until threatened with their loss.
This is true even of the greatest of
them all, life itself"

CITY HEADS BLAMED
FOR MANY DISEASES
State Health Board In Statement
Says Sanitary Laws Are
Deficient

ATLANTA, March 19.-Citv off
Gals are directlysresponsible to cjti-
zens for diseases which are derived
from preventable sources and the
administration of our sanitary laws
leaves much to be desired" accord
ing to statement issued bv the
state department of health.
he statement, in full. follows.
y An intelligent people must CO.
operate in the great work of eradica.
ton Of disease for the right to en-
joy health is quite as sacred as that
to possess property. As a general
proposition, our sanitary laws are
very good but their administration
still leaves much to be desired.
ITO ignorance and carelessness
must be attributed much of the can
sssion Of disease in the centuries
gone by. Out of the throes of suf-
ferng and death of those who have
preceded US, we have obtained GER
tain enlightment which, while not
perfect, still makes it absurd to
plead ignorance and lack of knowl
edge.
The day is not far distant when
it viii be considered a crime for a
city to continue to murder its citi-
zens by furnishing them an impure
water supply. Diseases which CON
sign thousands to the grave leave
even worse results in their wake by
passing on to the children a homeless
poverty, opening the gate to crime.
prostitution and mendicancy. All
the authorities agree that contagiou
react on the moral fibre of a com
munity or people and contratiwise,
where they live under healthful con-
mti0ns great advancement in gov
eminent, literature and science
have been made.
There is a moral obligation TO be
intelligent. Ignorance is a vice and
when it results in injury to anyone,
it becomes a crime; moral if not sta
tutory. There is no excuse in this
day for ignorance Of anyone in re-
lation to the necessity for the puri-
hcation Of all water supplies in cities
where the death rate from water
borne diseases is higher than that in
cities having perfectly satisfactory
water.
Responsibility is a word of ire
menduous import. It's significance
is akin, to trust and those men who
are responsible for and high minded
in the conduct of human affairs rea-
lie their liability to be called to ac-
count when honored with leadership.
There are men, however, upon
whom responsibility rests lightly.
perhaps not wiIlfully but because of
circumstances beyond their control
and in the management of their

The purpose Of government is to

which fails to shield the people from

Plan Solution Of

BY LAWRENCE MARTIN
United Press Staff Correspondent

s ABOARD LLOYD GEORGE SPE-
CIAL ENROUTE TIC WINNIPEG,
Oct. 12.-It is strictly UP to the
United States to decide when world
peace shall become n fact instead
of desired ideal, Lloyd George be-
lieves.
Going q step further today in dis
eussion of his plan for peace insur-
ance by an unwritteh compact be-
tween the British empire and the
American republic, the British
statesman expressed the belief that
Great Britain and all her dominions
arc ready today for an understands
ing with the United States, which
in Lloyd Georges opinion would
mean that no aggressor nation
would ever fire n gun because the
mighty power of America and Bri-
tain would crush economically and,
if need be, by military force any
warlike power Or group that dared
threaten world peace. America,
therefore, must speak before this
plan can become operative. That it
will eventually be the means to
bring back world peace and then
preserve it, he has no doubt.
The first step i'll the direction of
American willingness for such CO.
operation lies in the Hughes propos-

LAY PLANS FOR
BOOSTING DAIRY
INDUSTRY HERE
VIII Concentrate Efforts
To Make "rhe Cow"
Supreme

"Business men and Farm Bureau
members of Imperial Valley are go
ing to put on n big campaign for
boosting the dairy industry of this
district,' said G. c. jenkins of the
Farm Bureau this morning in re
viewing the events of last night $
committee meeting in Braw!ey ut
the DEnl&ek hotel.
Much enthusiasm and full at
tendance marked the meeting Of the
committee appointed by Q. c. Webs
tpy Of the Farm Bureau to promote
several matters of Importance to
the VALLEY. After some discussion,
it was decided TO eliminate the dual
purpose of the committee and work
for the achievement of Il single
goal, that Of cooperation by tho
business mcn and farmers of the
valley for the purpose of bringing
to the county experienced dairy men
who would locate permanently.
The plan to also interest cotton
growers WIS dropped, due to the
fact that the dairy industry is
believed to be more stable, and
also in view Of the arrival of Il
number of fanilies from the Texas
cotton district in the last week.
These people, who are leaving Their
former homes on account of the
destructive work of the boil weevil,
say that they know of more fam
lilies who are coming to this ''wce-
vil-less paradise. . It is therefore
believed that the cotton question
viii take care of itself.
