1T was not only during the civil
i war that the Russian Peoples
Commissariat for Health was faced
with extraordinary military" du-
ties. for after its conclusion, cpl
demic disease, as result of war,
famine and blockade, was widely
prevalent thruout the country, and
considerable resources and concen-
trated medical effort was demand
ed to combat it.
During the present year, thanks
to the consolidation of the Soviet
system and the suppression of cpl
demic diseases, the Peoples Commits
sariat for Health has been able for
the first time to proceed to sys-
tematic peace-time work.
There is stia one widely prevalent
disease which menaces the population
of Russia-malaria. Malaria, which
was very rife in certain parts of Rus
STA in pre-war days (the Caucau-
sus, Turkestan, and the Volga re-
gion, for instance) has since the
war become still more widespread
Ia phenomenon to be observed in
the majority of the European coun-
tries. According to the incomplete
statistics, based on registered casrs
alone, 1.-THE registration of malaria
has been declared compulsory by the
Soviet GOVERNMENT million in
stances of malaria occur every year.
The Soviet Government set up three
new Institutes for Tropical Diseases
lin Moscow, Kharkov, and Erivain)
to conduct the fight against ma
laria and about 100 malaria sta
tions in various parts of the coun-
try are engaged in the practical
work.
Apart from malaria and the or
binary infectious diseases. of chii-
drcn, the situation of the Soviet
Union, as far as epidemic disease
is concerned, may at present be
regarded as satisfactory. But the
Peoples Commissariat for Health
is not resting on its laurels it has
decided to take advantage of the
lull in epidemic disease, in order
to proceed to the Improvement OF
the general health conditions OF
the workers Of the Republic.
Among the most important meas
ures of general sanitary character
adopted are the improvement OF
workshop and housing sanitation,
town planning, and better water
supply and drainage (Petrograd has
now for the first time a rational
water supply system).
Next comes the campaign against
social diseases, e. g., tuberculosis
and syphilis. Both these diseases
are a little more prevalent since
the war, altho. thanks TO the agri-
cultural character Of Russia, not
to such an extent as in other coun-
tries. A net work of anti-tubercu-
losis and anti-venereal disease elm
les, the first Of their kind in Rus
STA, have been organized. and there
is not now provincial capital
town where clinics Of both types
are not to be found.
The third group Of measures con-
Germs the future generation. II
embraces the protection Of the moth
er, the infant and the child, and, in
particular, the protection Of the
health of the factory and workshop
apprentice. For the protection u
the health Of the mother and the
infant, a net work of creches, con-
sulting clinics, milk stations, and
mothers and children's homes has
been set up. One or the other Of

Poor Davis Publicity

Inc capitalist press is worried about the ex-
posture OF Secretary of Labor Davis as labor's
enemy at the u M. w. of A. convention bv the
progressive Miners International Committee
1t VIII be recalled that leaf1et calling atten-
ton to the blacklist and fingerprint laws
Ealnst 1orelgn-born workers advocated by
DAVIS was distributed in the convention and
tnat wnen Davis rose to speak he was Kissed
and booed
Inc employers press fastened to explain
tnat the secretary of labor has been misunder-
stood by the coal miners, the inference BEING
Inat the miners were too ignorant to appre-
clate what the moosehearted secretary of labor
was trying to do for them.
An indianapolis paper carried a particularly
ingenious explanation of the unfortunate situ-
alton that had arisen 1t states that Davis has
only suggested that in the event of economic
necessity foreign laborers above the quotas for
their respective countries be admitted under
bond, their employers to provide them with
passage money back home when their employ
ment was ended. Such persons would be re-
CURED to report to government officials at in
tervals. Foreigners have to do this in nearly
all European countries. What Davis sug-
gested is now being done to large extent, but
it does not have the sanction of the law"
The emphasis is ours.
This inspired explanation of the Davis pro-
pOSalS Will Drlng 1CLle comfort TO the person
it is supposed to whitewash. 1t sustains every
contention made by the Workers Party of
America relative to the slave character of the
legislation sponsored by Davis.
What would be the status of foreign-born
workers admitted under bond? They would
be serfs who would have to do anything the
employers or the government ordered them to
do-robotised strikebreakers.
They would report to government officials at
regular intervals-that is, they would be con-
stantly terrorized.
The Davis proposals go farther than this,
however, and urge the same provision for for
eign-born workers already in America.
That these serfs are being imported into this
country in violation of law is a fact and almost
a matter of public knowledge. What Davis
proposes to do is to legaize traffic in human
flesh that is prohibited not only by the consti-
tuition of the United States, but by federal and
state laws He wants to establish, because he
is carrying out the orders of his steel trust
masters, nationwide contract labor and slave
system similar to the redemptioner and bond
slave system that makes such black blot on
the pages of early American history and which
the labor movement of this country succeeded
in abolishing after long struggle.
Secretary of Labor Davis had better consult
with his press agents before they do any more
explaining.

jesty' the recognition of Soviet Rus
STA is no longer so pressing. 1t is be-
ginning to discover hardships. The
Daily Mail writes the following about
that matter:
at is unlikely that Mr.. Macdonald
will take any precipitate action
toward recognition, permanent offici-
ais of the foreign Office and an ex-
animation Of documents on file there
having convinced him such step
would not be in the best interests Of
the country He is anxious for
recognition as soon as possible and is
engaged in making the necessary pre-
liminary inquiries
This hesitancy Of the Labor gov
eminent has Immediately produced
discomfort in the Labor Party. Neil
MacLean, who is M. p. from Glasgow
writes the following outburst against
the Labor government in the official
organ Of the Labor Party, in the La
Dor Herald:
"What is this nonsense about inev-
table delays and preliminary for
malities before the Russian govern
ment can be recognized? Five days
sufiiced to recognize Greece after
Venizelos took office. What could be
done in the case of Greece could be
done in the case Of Russia. II the
permanent officials pretend otherwise
they are sabotaoing, and their sabot-
age must be stopped swiftly and ruth
lessly or this government is damned"

Health
Hints
BY the
Father of
Physical
Culture

The value and necessity of ex-
ercise as factor in constitutional
improvement has already been
pointed out. Everyone needs a
proper amount OF exercise for the
sake of the general health, irrre-
spective of the effect upon the
eyes.
without going too deeply into
the physiology of exercise, It may
be said that there are two general
results to be gained from any
good system of physical training.
In other words. exercise may af-
feet one in two ways. II may
have Chiefly muscle-building
value. Or 1t may have what. Is
commonly called a constitutional
or health building value. Muscles
building exercises are intended
chiefly to build strength and en-
large the muscles. Constitutional
exercises chiefly affect the heart.
the lungs, the vital organs gener-
ally, and in consequence, the pur-
ity and quality of the blood.
All those types of exercise which
call for endurance are of the great
est value from a constitutional
standpoint. In other words, any
exercise which may be continued
for a considerable length of time
and which, therefore, keeps the
heart working energetically and
causes one to breathe deeply and
freely during that period will in
evitably tone up the internal or
gans.
Exercises which cause prolonged
deep breathing will naturally in
crease the oxygen intake until
your entire body from top to toe
is literally charged with it. This
will make you more alive. 1t will
make you brighter and more en-
ergetic, and the improved circula-
tion will tend to tone up every
cell and every structure of the
body.
Special attention is called to ex-
ercises for the neck. There are
two ways in which they are es-
pecially valuable: first in improv-
ing the circulation about the neck
and head; and second in improv-
ing the upper spine, or to be more
exact, the cervical spine.
Congestion about the neck is
known to produce a 'fullness" in
the head with the consequent con-
gestion in and about the eyes.
Measures which relieve this con-
dition will naturally tend to lessen
the strain upon the eyes themsel-
YES, making for more perfect and
easier sight. i"
Deep breathing, water drinking.
and relaxation. as well as exercise
are useful for this purpose. 8

PUBLIC SCHOOLS HAVE
 IO.920 REGISTRATION
Enrolment May Be h. creased as More Chil-
 dren Seek Education

A normal increase in the public school registration is shown by pre- liminary figures available today. The total number of pupils en- rolled this year is 10,920 as com- pared with 10,552 in 1923 and 10, 049 in 1922. This makes an in- crease of 36S, but as children are still reporting there will be a larger number later.
 Part time sessions may be neces- sary in some schools, but Superin- tendent of Schools Stanley H. Holmes has not had time to study the situation and is unable to make any statement. The situation is worst at the Washington school, where a large influx of children from the parochial school has in- creased the registration by 490, which will probably mean part time sessions or the reopening of the condemned Bartlett school.
 Most of the schools, according to the figures given below, show small decreases in attendance, but these. according to MT. Holmes, will proh- ably be wiped out by Friday with the completion of registration.
 The old state normal school on Hillside terrace has been taken over by the city and is being used as a public school. It Is known as the Walnut Hill school.
