ANOTHER DOG
PUT TODEATH
Head Examined and Show.
ed the Animal Had
Dreaded Malady
KNOWN AS RABIES

Another dog suffering from the
rabies was discovered in the west
Tern section of the city yesterday.
lilo was put to death by DR. Charles
In. Beere and his head shipped to
Hartford. A report received at the
|office Of the local health depart
|ment today from the state health
|office disclosed the fact that he
was a victim Of the rabies.
Thus, one more mad dog in the
western section of the city has
|becn eliminated. The animal was
picked up in the West Side hill
district following several COM
|plaints. DR. Beere's cooperation
with the health department was
highly praised today by Acting
Health Officer DIR Peter r. Keeley.
The entire west section Of the
|city, beyond the Naugatuck river
and stretching to the town lines,
lis under quarantine. Therefore the
|fact that the dog was picked up in
THAI area warranted further close
watch on canine animals in that
section end also backed up the To-
|cai and state quarantine set up In
that district.
No further dogs suffering from
rabies have been found in the
|noytherp section of the city.
Therefore, 1t was stated today at
the local health office, the quar-
ransine for the section which had
been under consideration will not
|be placed on, as yet. II no further
cases develop. 1t was explained, it
rs unlikely that any quarantine
Twin be invoked.
The southern and eastern Sec
lions Of the city, SO far. have re-
manned immune from the rabies
prevalent among the dogs in the
western and northern districts.

Health Dept Announces Plans for Intensive Drive This

, lily spread to other members OF
the family, must be discovered
early. 1t is often extremely diff
fcult for the physician to diagnose
tuberculosis in the early stages
without use of the x-ray, dag
nostic expedient too costly for
many patients.
With the development of this
new machine, however, it is pos
sible to take X-ray pictures of the
chest for as low a cost as seventy
hve cents each, provided suffi-
cient number desire to have pic
lures made.
When tried in New Haven
among high school students 6,393
persons were X-rayed. OF these,
eighty-five per cent were negative,
but the rest either showed evidence
Of tuberculosis or looked suspicious
enough to warrant further study.
Most of the suspicious ones on
further Investigation also proved
negative. Some of the pictures re-
vealed other ailments, such as en-
larged heart. One revealed a tack
in the lung.
BY proper treatment people
found with evidences of the disease
will be prevented from becoming
open cases." lives will be saved
and spread of infection to others
will be arrested. In order to ac-
complish this end all persons with
suspicious findings will be referred
to their family physicians for fur
Their check-up and study and such
treatment as may be needed.
In the program which will be
launched this fall, those who desire
to have X-ray check-ups of this
sort will have to pay for them, for
there are no state funds availabl
for the work. However, II a suffi-
cient number desire to take this
precaution in safeguarding their
health, the price per picture will
be very low.
Initiative in the program will
have to ben taken by the local
health officers in the various COM
munities. All information con-
corning the program, the X-ray
machine, the cost, ETC., has been
sent to these officials and arrange
ments will be made by them with
the state department of health for
use Of the apparatus. Local an
nouncements will be made by the
health officers.
The pictures will be read by ex.
perts employed by the state tuber.
culosis commission without cost tc
the people who are x-rayed. Notifi.
cation Of the result will be sent q.
soon as possible, SO that there vii
be no delay in placing the positive
cases under proper care immedi.
ately. The entire plan has the ap.
prevail OF the Connecticut State
Medical society.

Plans for a statewide campaign
against tuberculosis IN which

which all of the health forces In
Connecticut will be massed on the
attack against this disease were
announced today by the state de-
partmcnt of health in its monthly
bulletin.
( This campaign has been made
possible by the recent perfecting
of a portable X-ray machine which
will take as many as $50 pictures
an hour at an exceptionally low
cost per picture. The apparatus
has already been tried In New. Ha-
ven with exceptionally good re-
suits and the state department of
health Is now to make 1t available
for use in all towns Of the state.
Through use Of this machine an
X-ray check-up will be furnished
to thousands Of Connecticut chill

COTTON TEXTILE
INDUSTRY OPENS
LABOR BATTLE
$40 Minimum Wage and
4O-FIour Week Does Not
Please All Forces OF
Labor
BY II. o. THOMPSON

UNITED Press Stan Correspondent
washington. June 2s-UP)--
Spokesman for organized labor
we're given an opportunity to-day
to challenge the $40 minimum and
40-hour maximum week proposed
by the cotton textile industry un-
der the national Industrial recov-
cry program.
The employers side was pre-
sented yesterday at the first of the
industrial recovery hearings.
The hearing moved smoothly
and rapidly. Although carried for
ward in the presence of 1000 spec
tators, 1t at times assumed the as
pect of q quiet meeting Of execu-
tives in a private office. I.
Those given. chance to present
labor's argument for higher min
imum nay and shorter maximum
week at to-day's session included
william Green, president of the
American Federation OF Labor;
John Frey of the A. F. of L., and
Sidney Eillman. president OF the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers.
Others appearing in the second
day included representative OF
mills not desiring to participate In
the code of fair competition for
the whole industry. Yesterday,
several operators asked to be ex-
empted and others urged q post
ponement Of the effective date of
the textile code, now set for July
II.
While no threats of court action
have been heard, 1t was assumed
that some effort might be made to
defer the effective date by an in
junction If other means fail. IT
was understood that a method OF
dealing with q situation of this
kind has been devised.
The textile employers, were be-
lieved to anticipate fight on both
the $40 minimum pay figure and
the 40-hour week. They maintain
the $40 figure is minimum and
will not be the maximum or even
the avearge wage and a work week
shorter than 40 hours would result
in a scarcity of goods and higher
prices.
Advocates of industrial reform
were cheered by indications that
the Industrial recovery act would
serve to eliminate child-labor from
the textile industry and also bring
about restriction of the stretch
out" system, cause of many south
ern textile strikes.

Washington, June 2S.-(UP)--
Sweeping gains In domestic busi-
ness and pronounced improve
ment in foreign trade were reveal
ed today by governmental statistics.
Despite exchange restrictions,
high tariffs and other barriers for
eign trade OF the United States has
recovered rapidly from the low
points earlier this year and foreign
markets have frightened materials
~.
The gain was ascribed principals
ly to increase business activity In
the United States, which caused
American firms to buy more goods
abroad and thus enabled foreign
ers to buy more from the United
States.
Another important factor is 20
per cent depreciation in the gold
value of the American dollar. This
enabled foreigners whose currency
has not deprecated to buy prod
ucts in the United States at cor
responding discount from previous
levels.
Combined United States imports
and exports in May were valued
at 1921, 100000, department OF
commerce figures showed. This was
the highest since December when
they were worth $22s,000. 900. For-
eign trade normally is on the
downtrend in May ana June. but
estimates for the latter month in

than in May.
Imports this month which gem

ports, are we'll in excess Of June
