Move Ordered as PreCaution
Against Spread of
Meningitis.

Postponement of the opening of
city public schools until Jan. 10 was
ordered today as a precaution
against spread of the spinal menin-
gifts by the school board at a con-
ference with DR.. Herman G. Nor
gan, city health commissioner. The
schools were scheduled to open
Jan. 6, next Monday, but will not
open until Jan. IS.
Private and parochial schools
also were ordered closed until the
epidemic is abated."
The school commissioners met IN
special session to consider the
health boards order. Louis Kepner
moved for adoption of the resolu-
ton and Julian Wetze1 seconded.
DR.. Morgan told the board that
the action would be justified If it
saved the life Of only one child"
It is the first time in his eighteen
years as city health board secretary
that DR.. Morgan has ordered closing
of schools. There has been lull
in spread Of the disease, but the
health board felt that schools should
be closed because there Is no asSur-
ance there will not be another out
break of the malady. The disease
has been prevalent among both
adults and children.
DR.. Morgan expressed belief there
will be sporadic cases the rest OF
the winter, but believes schools can
be reopened soon If, after another
week, it is indicated the malady is
checked permanently.
DR.. Morgan told the board that
it is not advisable to order a ban
OH all public meetings and to close
down business houses.
public sentiment is in favor Of
closing the schools but it is not in
favor of shutting down picture
shows" DR.. Morgan said. "There is
a lesser degree of danger from pic
ture shows than from public schools.
you will find few children in pic
ture shows. The parents are keep
ing them in as a precaution. There
is nothing compulsory about going
downtown" DR.. Morgan said.

INTERSTATE COAL

Joint Hearing Is Conducted by In

Joint hearing of the long disputed
intra-stat coal rates was conducted
in the house Of representatives to-

commission and the public service

Leading coal operators, shippers,

compromise that has been worked
out over many months and which
was approved by all but the South

Present rates first were put into
effect by a public service commits

railroads have fought the matter
through the courts and lost. Then
they appealed to the I. G. c., which

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Secre-
tary Mellon defended action of the
coast guard today in killing three
fleeing rum runners of Newport.
R. l., with the assertion they were
performing their duty within the
law.
Preliminary reports of the incident
submitted to him, Mellon said, have
disclosed nothing to indicate the
coast guard was not fully justified
in firing on the vessel
These men were smuggling
liquor and it was the coast guard
duty to capture them. So far as Z
can learn, the coast guard was ems
tirely within the law and was juStt-
fed In what it did"
The secretary, who returned to
Washington after a holiday cruise
in the West Indies, referred to the
shooting as unfortunate" but said
ample warning was given the rum
runners before the coast guard
opened fire.
Did Duty, He Says
'In the circumstances, with the
rum runner attempting to escape, 1
do not see how the coast guard
could have done less than it did,"
Mellon said.
Melons defense followed the pro-
test of the killing yesterday in Bos-
