POISON KEEPS BIRDS
 FROM FISH HATCHERY

WASHINGTON, Nov. g. (P)-The Department of Agriculture has just is. sued a statement saying that the use of poisoned salt has served to keep away birds that had been fouling the waters used to supply the Federal Fish Hatchery in Lawrence County, s. Dakota. The full text of the state ment follows:
 A report that birds were causing serious losses of trout fry at the United States Trout hatchery, in Lawrence County, s. Dakota, was re- gently investigated by a representa- tive of the Biological Survey of the United States Department of Agri4 culture. It was found that especially during the hot weather woodchucks have been coming down to the spring that supplies water to some of the hatcheries and rearing troughs, and fouling and rolling the water. Two poison boards containing salt and coyote poisoning were placed on a rocky ledge near the spring and in two days 29 dead woodchucks were counted. A supply of the poisoned salt was left with the superintendent of the hatchery, who believes that all damage by the woodchucks has been ended for this season.

 BY 227

It costs $1.13 per day to improve the mental process of Stewards 84 school children, according to the report of the Commissioner of Education, just issued, and the total amount expended per annum for school purposes is $13,- 400, which ranks eighth out of IT in corporated towns listed in the com missioner's budget.
 Seward also ranks first in point of cost of education, with Valdez second and running ten cents per capita be- hind the Gateway city.
 The school year 1925-26 was the biggest in Alaska's history according Ito figures compiled by Lester D. Hen Iderson, commissioner of education. Growth over the previous year is in- dicated in the number of schools, which was increased by four; in the number of teachers, which was 12 greater than 1924-25; in enrolment which showed an increase of 227 pu- pills: and in school costs which ex- ceeded those in 192425 by approxi- mately s3O,0OO.
 Enrolment Figures Schools were maintained in 81 com munities, F of which were incorpor- porated cities. Four thousand three hundred and ffty-two pupils were taught by 211 teachers, including superintendents of schools all of who taught one or more high school clas- ses. The average daily attendance of pupils was 3,567.
 While the enrolment showed a material increase over that for the previous year, the largest percentage of growth was in the high schools in which 5S1 pupils were enrolled, an increase of 12 per cent over that for the school year 1924-25. The high school enrolment has more than doubled since 1919.

Occupational
Disease Law Is
Not Adequate
The Workers Need Greater Pro-
lection Says Harvard
Professor

Chicago, III. - Severe criti-
cisms of the inadequate protec-
ton which society gives to
workers subjected to occupation
al diseases was voiced by DR..
Alice Hamilton, professor of in
dustrial medicine in Harvard
University, at a meeting here at
the headquarters of the Wom-
ems Trade Union Label League.
Hundreds of thousands of workers,
DR.. Hamilton said, are compelled to
subject themselves to the poisonous
materials used in their daily tasks.
Lead work brings about what is
called lead collie and has been the
cause of suffering" said the speaker.
Il have known girl who lost every
tooth because of lead poisoning di-
|rectly due to the nature of her work.
And her teeth were healthy when she
got the job.
"Many get skin diseases because of
the stuff smeared on their skin, the
really poisonous material they must
use in their work.
"Benzol is deadly. In the case of
benzol poisoning blood turns to wat
er. When the victim brushes his
teeth they will begin to ooze. Red
spots will show on his body during
the earlier stage of the disease. Later
these spots will become black and
blue.
eve have only begun to do some
thing for the men and women who
can not escape these poisons unless
they quit their employment. They
need more rotection-protectio that
can be furthered by the organized
labor movement"
