veloping this invaluable health
 Bureau Opened In 1919
 Public health nursing became Q distinct activity of the department In 1919 as the result of aNsurvey of public health nursing in the state, made at tho request of the commissioner of health. This sur vey which was completed in 1918 disclosed the fact that here were many sections of the state in which no public health nursing was be- ing done, though greatly needed. The survey brought to light many instances where the public health nurse would have been of invalu- able assistance In influencing public opinion in matters pertaining to health and in giving much needed care to the sick,
 On the basis of these findings recommendation were made that the state department of health pro- vide within the department nurs- ing staff with supervisor quali- fled by training and experience to health nursing in all sections of tIIG bIutG anu " aoVtbO aWAtH u9SV- citations previously formed as to the best methods of further develop ing their programs. As q direct result of the recommendations the following year, in 1919, by author ization of the general assembly, q bureau of child hygiene and public health nursing was established and continued to function thus until 1923 when q separate bureau of public health nursing was created.
 From g to 1O3 Services
 Although the work was com- mencod less than fifteen years ago, the results are evident in the fig- ,ures whcih show that of the 169 towns of the state 103 have full time public health nursing services as contrasted with the 37 services in existence in 1919.
 Not only is the development of public health nursing services an important function of the bureau but of equal importance Is the maintenance of high standards Of work. This is accomplished by recommending for appointment only those nurses who meet requir- ed quaiificatlons--and by giving to D0NTub oI uiEectOTb pS'boilut uu- visory service in the drawing up of policies aud to nurses in dcveI- oping their work.
 The public health nurse In crisp blue uniform with starched col lar and cuffs plays Q most impor- tarit role in protecting the health of the public and in caring for the sick. Advice to the healthy. care of tho i'll. prenatal and post-natal ] counsel to mothers, explanation of proper diet and how 1t can Do ob- .tained at lowest cost, intelligent Judgment in all sltuations.--all are part of the days work, although perhaps less Is actually heard of the work of tho public health nurse than of that of any of the army of people whose lives are being de- voted to making fact tho slogan ot tho state department of health, Tor a clean state and healthy people,"

Of the many subdivisions of the Connecticut state department Of health, tho one which comes in contact with the public of the state most closely and most often Is un- doubtedly the bureau of public health nursing of which Sarah R. Addison. Il. N.. is the director.
 While. public health nursing services have been developed in all the large cities and a majority Of tho smaller communities of the state, there are still q number of the latter, principally in the very rural sections which have not been able as yet to provide a similar service for their citizens.
 It is one of the functions of tho bureau of public health nursing to encourage those communities who arc anxious to promote pub lie health nursing and to guide and assist them in the methods of de-

LONDON, July 4 G.N.S).-The
American dollar fluctuated uncer-
tainly on the London Exchange
today, opening at $3.50 to the
pound sterling, rising to $4.4812,
and then falling quickly to $4.52.

from apprehension among traders
regarding the World Economic
Conference crisis, precipitated by

PRICES WILL CD
HIGHER, TIMES
EXPERT HOLDS
BY TINES MINANCIAL EDITOR

This writer has grown almost
tongue-tied answering individual
inquiries about where prices are
going. So he proposes to tetll
here, once for all and all at once,
what he knows about it-and
that's a plenty.
Prices, on the authority Of
Franklin D. Roosevelt, than whom
there can be no whomer, are 60
ing UP until farmer can get as
much in shoes and shirts, drugs
and fertilizer, fencing and trac-
tors-anything, in fact, that he
needs or wants-for his hogs,
corn, wheat, butter, cotton or
other products as he could get in
1926. The details you could figure
Ut for you if he had a roll of news
print, a few gross of pencils and
O flock Of StatiSticianS.
Encouraging Figures
But why work and worry? The
Technocrats, with their two-hour
WorkdayS, have nothing on us, if
we utilize properly the services Of
tered to our hand. For instance,
right here are the details all
worked out for us by the experts
of Standard Statistics Company.
For your information, in case you
don't know this concern, their
figures are quite as reliable as my
own would be, which is the high
est possible commendation from
this writer.
So, eliminating the wherefores
and whyfores, the comparisons
and the weightings and other
technicalities in which most of
us, even if we could understand
them, are neither concerned nor
interested, here are the objective
prices for the principal farm COM
modities: Cotton 1874 cents per
pound; corn, 708 cents per
bushel; hogs, SITS per hundred
weight; wheat, $1.06 per bushel;
tobacco, 1876 cents per pound;
oats 44.3 cents per bushel, and
rye, SO cents per bushel; the cot
ton at New York and the hogs
and grain in Chicago.
Mum on Stocks
There you are, the Roosevelt
prices! Some people, of course,
many Of them very highbrow,
say prices can't be stopped there.
Maybe not. Mr.. Roosevelt does
not say whether they can, or
not. But, anyhow, unless the
very determined Mr.. Roosevelt
redetermines his policies, there
is where prices are going. You
can do your own guessing be-
yond that.
Oh, about stock prices! Well,
this writer, aside from a dollar
or two on a horse race or an
election, once in a while, hasn't
gambled in 20 years. The con-
census of statistical opinion
seems to be, however, that many
stocks still are a fair bet, if
you have loose change you can
afford to risk on a long shot.

The bulls yesterday added
another chapter to the boom

The old story Of the income
