DR.. Osborn Warns
Against Cuts In
Health Dept. Budget
Recent Epidemics Could Have Been Checked By
Preventive Medicine

public health has cut the prevail
ence Of certain diseases az much
as nifty per cent in recent years In
Connecticut, wherever q reasonable
famount has been spent. Annual
public health costs, in the cities
with the highest public health ex-
pense, average less than seventy
Ave cents per person unless the
community IL operating an isola-
ton hospital, in which case the ex.
pense Is somewhat greater.
I'm most towns and cities the
cost will be between ten and fifty
cents per person per year for the
board Of health. The small amount
spent annually IN most towns and
cities will not bear much pruning.
LAST fall Connecticut suffered
from an epidemic of infantile par
afysis, that cost the state many
thousands OF dollars, In addition to
the time lost by the 1,135 persons
Ill with the disease and the loss OF
90 lives In the epidemic.

As far as known, none Of the cases
were in persons previously VACCINE
ated. A little preventive medicine
would have stopped the spread Of
tn disease before II had grown to
the present extent. Wherever a

children to bevaccinated before be-

pox seems to be vaccinated before
beginning their school work, small
pox seems to spread with consid-
cradle ease. Whenever cases have
appeared in recent vars In cities
where vaccination is required,
smallpox has not spread to epi-
demic proportions but has died
out because Of lack Of susceptible
persons who can have the disease.

RENO PALACE
NOW HOUSES
JOBLESS men
BY GEORGE d. CRIssEY

BY GEORGE ID. CRIsSEY
Omitted Press Stan C0rrcspondent)
Reno. New. (UP)-The Old Pal
ace, famous gambling hall of the
pioneer days, Is now a refuge here
for unemployed.
TRANSFORMATION Of the gambling
club into a sort of soup Kitchen
| dormitory represents the dizziest
turn ever made by wheel of for
tune or fate.
A few years ago the Goddess of
Chance reigned supreme at the
Palace. Now 1t is supported by
Reno's union laboring men and
offers shelter and warmth to the
jobless. Where once thousands
were staked, now a steaming bowl
of soup is served.
The men sleep on cots arranged
along the sides of the room, listen
to radio music furnished. read
piles OF magazines, and wonder
when job will be available. There
are so men living there now.
One meal per day is served. but
small kitchen has been built, so
that q cup of coffee may be pre-
pared at any time. Friday is
wash day and facilities have been
provided SO the men may keep
their clothing clean and in repair.
Discipline similar to that Of
college dormitory prevails. All
lights must be out at 10 p. m. and
an elected house committee sees
that various simple rules are en-
forced.
The population Is q floating one,
AZ the union usese the place as Q
clearing house for labor. When
job IL open, the roster is checked
and frequently man moves out
because he has become seif-sup-
porting.
Originally, the painters union
took over the old hall to take care
OF unemployed painters. but the
movement spread until now II In.
cludes the other trades. There are
100 cots In the hall. an adequate
supply OF blankets and two heat
Ing stoves.

LAW CRUMBL.|NG
SAYS EDITOR

Restriction of crime news by
newspapers would hamper justice
far more than aid it, Marlin E
Pew, Of Editor and Publisher, told
members of the American Society
of Newspaper Editors meeting in
convention here yesterday. He
favorS a limited censorship of
Lindbergh news.
Discussing the "unspeakably
mean and violent crimes" which.
in recent years have swept the
country, Pew said:
"In my opinion the failure of
the Government to enforce pro-
hibitiOn laws, braZen cOnSpira-
cieS between the underworld
and traitorOuS public officials
and police corruption, and
finally the vicious exploitation
patterns the predatory rich
have set for the predatory poor
in this country are basic factors
explaining this CHASTITY phe-
nomenOn."
Describing newspapers as the
greatest corrective agencies for
government, Joseph C. Hostetler,
Cleveland attorney, urged news
paper men to help the courts, not
hinder them.

O[DCLUB BONDS
YIELD 1888

Some 200 owners of second
trust bonds on the erstwhile City
Club will each realize about 1888
on their investments, according to
a report submitted to them by
the trustees, William Cogger,
chairman. There is now avail
able for distribution $706.51.
In 1890 the second trust bond
holders instituted foreclosure pro-
ceedings on the City Club real
and personal property on G St.
N. w.
The case was dropped when the
bondholderS accepted a COM
promise offered by James A.
Purcell. the purchaser. to give
half of the personal property re-
manning in the building to the
trustees for the second trust
bondholderS.

TAGGED TROUT
COMES BACK

The first of some 1900 sea
trout tagged by the Bureau OF
Fisheries in an effort to gather
valuable data on the species for
the fishing industry was returned
today to the bureau by R. S.
Gray. of Buckroe Beach, Va. He
caught it in a pound net in
Chesapeake Bay.
The Bureau of Fisheries is
making this study in order to
determine why the fish are scarce
in some years and plentiful in
others. Studies have shown that
the species under 2 years of age
are uncommon north of Della
ware Bay. but that yearlings are
more common than older fish in
Virginia and North Carolina.
This indicates that the number
of the fish in New York and New
Jersey depends in part on migra-
ton of sea trout from the south.
Commissioner of Fisheries Henry
O'Malley said today that he is
anxious for everyone coming in
possession of a tagged sea trout
to notify the bureau so that the
study may be as complete as
possible.
Two types Of tags we're used.
One type is a celluoid button,
fastened to the back of the fish,
and the other is a celluloid strip
inserted inside the belly. A re-
ward is paid for the return of
the tags when accompanied by
information regarding their dis
coVery.
