STATE HOUSE
Meeting A. NJ, Tuesday, July

, was thought advisable by Commits.
interested in the matter to define
standard for this grade of milk
Thus the law is q grading law on
this one class of milk and does not
apply to milk put out under any
other name. The first draft of the
bill presented to the committee on
agriculture of the last legislature
gave to the commissioner of agricul-
ture authority to make the require.
ments for Grade A milk. A hearing
was advertised on this bill in the
usual way. No opposition appeared
OF any moment but the committee
objected to leaving this authority
with the commissioner, so a new
draft of the bill was made with the
advice and counsel of the commit
tee. This bill was advertised in the
usual way; a hearing was held. No
opposition appeared and the bill was
endorsed by the agricultural COM
mittee and was enacted q law in
the usual way. The insinuation that
the bill became q law in some I'M
demanded manner is entirely erro-
neous.
Effect of the Bill
"The opposition element to the
, Dill at the present time is trying
to convince the dairymen of the
state that the bill is, in some mys-
terious manner, going to put them
out OF business on July IL. AS a
matter Of fact, 1t effects no one ex-
cept those who label their milk
Grade A. Any man can sell his
milk either raw or pasturized Just
the same as heretofore If the above
label Is not used. If, however. he
uses this label he must conform to
the requirements of the law govern
Ing this grade. AS Portland is the
only place in the State, so far as
know. where this label is munich
pally recognized and required, It is
the only place where there is any
trouble or likely to be any and the
leaders of the opposition who are
striving so hard to get a referendum
on this law are to be blamed for
the transformation and erroneous
statements that have been put out
to gain signers to the referendum
In other parts of the State. Many
are led to believe that they will be
required to sell Grade A milk and
therefore come up to the standards
required and are, therefore, very
much excited, when in reality It does
not touch them in the least. en-
JOY fair and just fight for a good
cause. but let us be honest and
truthful, look at things in their right
light and call a spade a spade.
The so Per Cent Score
THE one object at which the oh
jectors have hurled the most gre
nades is the so percent score by
the official score card of the Bureau
of Dairy Inspection. DR.. Potter, in
his article published in last Sun
days edition of the Press-Herald.
Maine Farmer department, says in
part, Eighty points on the score
card Is an unreasonable minimum.
Eighty points is a good score for
dairy plants to make that are far
better equipped than the great ma

IF RHEUMATIC
 BEGIN ON SALTS
says We Must Keep Feet Dry, Avfod Exposure. Eat
 No Sweets

Stay off the damp ground. avoid exposure, keep feet dry, eat no sweets of any kind for a while drink lots of water and above all take @ spoonful of lad Salts oc- casionally to help keep down uric and toxic acids.
 Rheumatlsm is caused by poison toxins, called acids, which are gene rated in the bowels and absored in to the blood. It IS the function of the Kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the ur- inc. The pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this lmpurity. In damp and chilly. cold weather the skin pores are closed. thus forcing the kidneys to do double work; they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this posion, which keeps accommodating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness and pain, called rheumatism.
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of lad Salts; put table spoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morn- ing for a week This is helpful to neutralize acidity, remove body waste also to stimulate the kidneys, thus helping to rid the blood of these rheumatic poisons.
 Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism.

White and Black Zones
 In New Orleans Approved

New Orleans, March 3.-The su- preme court of Louisiana yesterday approved the segregation ordinance passed by the city council which pro- hibits negroes from establishing resi- dence in white neighborhoods and whites from living in negro neigh borhoods.
 The case was the outgrowth of a suit for restraining injunction by a white man living in one side of a duplex house to prevent the owner from renting the other side to ne- groes.
 Indications are that the case will be taken to the United States su- preme court as negroes are reported subscribing to $40,000 fund for that purpose.

COMPLETE AUDIT
 OF PUBLIC DEBT
This Is Asked in Report Of ' House Investigators

Washington, March s.--A report urging complete audit Of the pub llc debt and other measures to cor- rect conditions which were de- clured to have led to duplication of government bonds, some with frau dulent purpose, and the Justification of records has been submitted by a majority of the house committee which investigated charges of irreg- ularities In the bureau of engraving and printing.
 Declaring that the proposition of the bond Implications which re- suited from fraud is mot yet deter mined," the committee majority added that the report of the treas ury relative to the matter is 'in- complete, contradictory and eva sive."
 Along with the majority report, signed by Representative King, re- publican, Illinois, Steagle. democrat, Alabama, and Stevenson, democrat. South Carolina, Chairman McFadden submitted a minority report yester- day declaring the majority findings were "incomplete" and that he could not subscribe to them because the hearings had not been continued to permit the treasury to present addi- tional witnesses Had this been done, he said, the majority might have presented different conclusions and necessarily different recom- mendations."
 Representative Strong, republican, Kansas. in separate minority re- port, found no basis at all nor the majority conclusions, holding that while there had been duplication of bonds he believed none was fraudu- lent or spurious Although there was evidence of errors and some petty thieving," his report said, it was mot more than could be expect ed" in considering the great volume Of wartime securities issued.
 The majority report declined that duplicate bonds totalling 2.314,0O0 pairs, ranging in denomination from $50 to s10,oo0, had been redeemed 10 July l. 1924. To its charge that there had been duplicate payments on bonds stolen by employees from treasury vaults and again circulated, the report added that the extent of such thefts could not be ascertained because of "ineyact methods and faulty accounting"

ANOTHER GOLD STAR

Without doubt the effects of war gas was the underlying cause of the death of Daniel II. Rrardon of this city, who died In Denver where he had hcen since 1920 in an attempt to regain his health. Sergeant Rear don, one Of the youngest and one of tho first men to enlist in tht city when America entered the World War; was only 25 years old q: the time of his death. When he had not yet reached the score and one years of manhood Ae had participated yanantly in virtually all the major engagements of the American ex- peditionary force in France and was in the trenches when the urmstice was signed.
 But the ending of the conflict djd not mean tho ending of warfare for this young warrior, His battle ha- came a desperate conflict with the attcr-cffects of poison gas, which had penetrated his lungs several times during battle and cnca serl- ously-at Chateau Thicrry. where he also was wounded, His battle 1 against the after effects of the poi son was believed won several times and it was an indication of how well he thought he had conquered in this struggle when he got married 1T Colorado And it is also an indica' ton of the treucherous effects of ga poisoning when only two months ago he was again stricken and deatl won the victory.
 With full military honors the bod, will be laid to rest, a littnI honor to an illustrious career, Tn

THE SWITCH CONTROVERSY

Action of the Connecticut com- pany in appealing the controversy over the Myrtle street switch to the Public Culties Commission was rather hurried. After the discus sion about a week ago between city and company officials the suggestion was made that in event of a failure to agree the controversy would be nlaced before the ?. L. C. Nobody supposed that tho company would act thus hastily.
 The position of the company seems to be that, having once ob- tained permission to operate cars upon the street, to which the laying of inc switch was an incident, the company has the right to continue tbe switch there even when no long CT used, and that if the company s property in the city's streets is to be changed in conformity with h'gh- way requirements, it is the business of the city 10 foot the bill
 There is no question that the Connecticut company, any more than any other corporation, is not justified ill maintaining a nuisance upon city property; and that th' unused switch is public nuisance , there can be no doubt,
 The case may be of additional i'm nortancc for the Connecticut com many if it is to be regarded as nreccdent for other somewhat slthi lar conditions. The property Of tn connany on Arch street.-the uh used rails and the trolley poles an uires-likcwisc begin to take on LII aspect of a public nuisance; hhe" 'S the unused part of the trolley track m the Berlin routo-indeed, the ia' fer were so much Of a nuisance thf they figured in fatal accident onI recently. In case it were proposed improve Arch street, or the road"' beside the unused Berlin track does the Connecticut company SUI nose it would be permitted to 'sa\' the expense of removing its rails!
 rt looks as if in due time the will be other eases for the F. C'
 to decide. If it were la" court s' ting on the issues there "0u scarcely be a doubt as to what u decision would be.
