ASKS ADVISORY BODY
FOR Welfare WORK

In order to get the cooperation Of
all groups interested in child welfare
laws, William Hodson, Of the Russell
Sage Foundation, has suggested to the
local commission on welfare legislation
that large advisory committee be
organized.
Mr.. Hodsoa proposed that this advis-
ory committee be made up Of not more
than twenty-five representatives Of social
agencies, to be selected by the Wash
ingtol council of social agencies: one
representative from each of the citi-
zens' associations, and one member
from every organization Of a general
civic character.
Special committees also should be
named from time to time, Mr.. Hodson
believes, to assist in the study Of
particular phases of legislation under
consideration. Justice Frederick I.
Siddons. chairman. and Frank Mes
bit secretary. of the commission
should be ex-offlcio members of the
several committees, in the opinion OF
Mr.. Hodson.

the law should be extended to apply
to railroads. steam shovels. etc.
Representative Gilbert asked why
the corporation counsel should not
be called before the committee.
There Is no use in passing laws If
they are not going to be enforced"
he said.
Urge Decent" Wage.
Representative Gibson of Vermont
protested that the salary of sanitary
inspectors, even under Reconsideration,
does not give them decent living
wage. You cannot get law enforced
unless you pay a decent wage" he
said. Chairman Rathbone also added
his opinion that there are great
many city employees who are not paid
adequate wages.
Chief Watson of the fire depart
ment said that they have found alley
dwellers collect a vast quantity OF
ilIf1a 1ammable material and that the
sheds in which they keep their fuel
are the worst nuisance and menace.
During the coal shortage the fire
department was lenient in the matter
inf1ammable material, but that now
they are stricter. You do not need
any further legislation to take care
OF the fire hazard" he said. "It Is
not the buildings themselves. but
these collections OF infiammable ma
tertal that constitute the hazard.
We have only ten men to cover the
entire District Of Columbia in fire pre-
vention week." he said. -four in
spectors and six privates. 1t is impos-
siblc for them to even scratch the

Asked by Chairman Rathbone how
large a force would be necessary to
make an adequate inspection. Chief
Watson replied thirty inspectors with
the salary of private OF class 3. which
is $1,660 at present and s., 100 In the
proposed salary increase bill.
Inspector Shelby advocated giving
policemen the authority of health Of
flcers in reporting sanitary condi-

The proposal was discussed of hav-

greatest things ever, so l thought
maybe Ted and l might buy one with

public utility bonds. too-that is, good
ones. They are bonds issued by cor
porations that serve the public with
something useful, hence the name
public utility. The gas company, the
electric light and power company, the
telephone and similar companies are
public utility corporations. Their
business is based on real public needs.
But it is also essential that they be
well managed to be a good invest
ment.
"Of course there are other bonds
equally good. Always bear in mind
that when you buy a bond you loan
money to the corporation whose bond
you buy. You do not buy a share OF

stock. The bond you buy bears in.

How do you think one can know
If company is safe or not, Aunty?"
asked Jane
Well that is difficult. But I should
say that If a company whose bonds
you fancy has been doing good
business for ten years and has not
failed to pay dividend during that
time the chances are that it will keep
on doing as well unless something en-
tlrely unforeseen occurs. The best
thing to do is to check up your own
opinion with your banker. Once YOU

FRIGHT

Many have heard the story of
the man who was frightened to
death by practical jokers. They
tied him to chair, gagged him
put his feet in warm water told
him they were going to cut the
soles of his feet and let him bleed
to death. The water was colored
red and the dull edge of a razor
blade was passed across the soles of
his bare feet. and the man, believing
that he was bleeding to death,
actually died of heart failure.
That is foolish joke. but not
nearly so foolish as some of the
tricks that we allow to be played
on ourselves.
1t is not necessary to 60 through
such an elaborate program to fright.
en- some of US, especially where
business is concerned.
Let someone wave the red flag Of
business depression across the hor-
izon and the timid souls run to
cover. Prosperity is straig ghtway
to death.
The same old bunk" is used
every time. Some peasimist sur
misses that this is election year and
therefore business will be "punk".
It's an old superstition that belongs
10 the limbo of witchcraft, but so
many unthinking souls accept it
for truth every four years that it
continues to operate to the detri-
ment of business.
Elections do not hurt business,
but business men think they do
and therefore they do.
The result is that prosperity is
frightened to death. But there's
no reason for it. The next time
someone says the election is stangn-
lating business, don't look serious
and agree-laugh at them.

THE IMPORTANCE OF
FOREIGN TRADE

For many decades we have pro-
duced surplus Of products of the
farm that has been sold in foreign
countries. AS long as we continue
TO produce surplus above domestic
consumption, 1t is prime necessity
that there be market for It. II ia
true that this surplus is but a frac-
tlon OF our total production. Never
theless, 1t exerts an effect upon the
price OF the entire output which ia
entirely disproportionate to its reIa.
tive size. A country store.keeper NAV
sell hundred straw hats at a fair
margin of profit. but the twenty which
he may not be able to sell at all will
wipe out the profit on the entire
STOCK. The same thing Is true OF
wheat, of corn, of any product q,
the farm.
1t ia true that we might exist with.
out foreign trade, that we might
depend exclusively upon domestic
consumption. To do that, hovever
would require complete reorzaniza.

Industrial structure. a reorzanfaatl6n
which would require years Of time
and which would entail losses bevond

alternative Ia to take steps toward tn.

Home Curing of Meats An EcOnom-
ical Practice

On Colorado farms the proportion of
meat cured is very small compared
with the amount eaten. Too many sell
the high-g grade meat they produce,
often below cost of production, and
buy the meat they eat at local mar
kets, usually at very high price. 1t
would be better for each farmer to
cure his own meat on his own farm,
thus securing a better product at a
much cheaper price. and having a con-
tinuous supply available at all times.
Certainly the home curing of meats
should receive attention on Colorado
farms. Two days time during the
slack part of the year will take care OF
the whole years meat and lard re-
quirements.
In curing meat several things must
be taken into consideration in order
that a first-class product may be
turned out.
At the time of killing, the animal
must be well bled, as blood Is one OF
the best mediums for the growth OF
bacteria, and is very liable to cause
the meat to spoil. If one has on hand
meat which is not well bled it should be
the first to be used. Any meat which
is beginning to spoil or has become
rather old. should not be used tor
curing.
Since meat takes on odors OF 1or.
eign substances rather easiy, it shou'o
not be stored in room with gasoline
coal oil or other volatile drugs meat
from animals suffering from any ois-
case such as tuberculosis, measles. ETC.
should not be used. Even if II were
possible to keep it. would not be de-
sirable for human food.
