GERMANY AGREES TO THE MILITARY
 PLAN FOR SAAR
Accepts Proposition Made By Great Britain and
 French Government

Copyright 1895 by United Press)
 Geneva, Jan 17.-(UP)--Ger- many today agreed in principle to demilitarization of the Saar, as de-
 manded by France and Great Bri- tain.
 French fears of attack unless the Saar was included specifically in the Rhineland zone caused a dis pute which delayed the league of
 nations council decision to award the territory to Germany. As result of the German agree ment, the way was believed open
 for immediate award of the terri tory to the reich.
 As soon as Germany agreed in principle to the demilitarization
 France agreed that the Saar should
 be handed over formally to Ger
 many on March 1, the date sug- gested. Germany withdrew it's de-
 mand that the transfer be made
 by February 15.
 The German reply to the French demands was submitted this morn- ing. It said that the Versailles treaty settled the demilitarization
 problem. This implied that, inas-
 much as the treaty demilitarized
 the entire Rhineland and the Saar is in the Rhineland, the Saar
 would remain demilitarized. Eager to turn. the Saar over to Germany at the earliest date as the result of Sundays plebiscite, the council intends to hold a special meeting in event that French and German experts encounter diffi- culty in settling technical problems | incident to transfer, such as with drawal of French currency from the Saar and protection of social l insurance funds.

THREE ARRESTED
 IN POLICE DRIVE
Efforts Made to DiscOur. age Passing of Red
 Signal Lights.

A crusade against drivers who pass by red signal lights ordered this morning by Police Supt Joseph H. Mclean, resulted in three arr rests. All three drivers were noti- fled to appear in city court tomor- row by Motor Patrolman Thomas Phelan. who brought all three to headquarters for booking.
 Supt McLean's order today marked the beginning of a city- wide safety drive, with the appre- hension of drivers who pass the red beacons, as the goal. Police be- 1ieve that under the. dangerous traffic coDditions prevailing at this time, the passing of he'd lights is doubly dangerous, hence the SUI perintendents instructions.
 The drivers alleged to have passed the red lights are Luce Hozubin, 46, of West Cheshire: Irving Simonds, 23, of 22 Weaver street, Waterville, and August Gan- kelx, 29, of 28 Chipman street.

 Too COlOrless
BY TED H. MALOY United Press Stan Correspondent

New York, Aug. 14.-(UP).- Mems clothes are joining the color parade of bathroom fixtures, neon signs, motion pictures, automo- piles and kitchen furniture and Raymond Twyeffort, stylist, says it's the road to a happier America.
 This is an age of individuality and newly Hound freedom, Twyef- fort declared, displaying bizarre plaids and pastel shades in his Fifth avenue store. Growing elo- quent, he saw the world is tiring of drabness. America is dictating the course of the renaissance in color. America Is dressing up tired business men are turning to pastel dinner coats, bright silk waistcoats, astounding checks and stripes in a variety of colors, col- ored shoes, colored hats and col ored accessories.
 America Had Suffered.
 America has been suffering from pernicious anenia for lack of color" Twyeffort said.
 Twyefiort, chairman of the fash ion committee of the American Merchant Tailors' association, de- signed q champaign coat a few years ago and exhibited 1t in light blues, yellows and greys. Staid English tailors are showing tho coats for the first time this fall.
 He is showing dinner suits in 15 colors. Wine. mulberry. grape. plum, purple stripes, green and four shades of blue are among them. Silk dot facing for the lapels may be had by those who want it.
 Twenty Shades Shown
 Twenty shades are shown in host suits for. men who want to get away from business drabness when they come home in the evening. They are in velvet. A bright orange or purple jacket worn with darker and more conservative trousers are quite bit of all right, says Twyef- fort. If the host prefers to wear his dark blue or black dinner suit he may have a yellow, wine or Cleopatra (royaD blue vest with 1t.
 Dark blue opera hats, shoes and gloves match the break in cut aways from the traditional black.
 Cocktail Hour Suit

HOG PENS ABOUT EMPTY IN STOCK
 YARDS OF WEST
Housewives Pro t e s t e d Higher Prices-Prices of
 Hogs Had Been Rising

Chicago, Aug. 14-(UP)-Acres of empty hog pens in the great rambling stockyards offered mute products today as housewives pro. tested mounting meat prices.
 With the supply of hogs the smallest on record for this time of year, stockyard officials ordered half of the pens closed. Operations were almost at standstill.
 Prices of live hogs continued to rise in a manner that boded i'll for the pocketbooks of housewives, who thus far haven't felt the full effect of the shortage.
 Highest Prices
 Choice hogs, advancing another 10 cents to $12.20 per hundred pounds not including the $2.25 AAA processing tax, brought the highest price since the boom days of 1929. Since Jan. 1 the volume of hogs shipped into the Chicago market has dropped 45 per cent and prices skyrocketed more than $4. In the last six weeks the rise amounted to $2.45.
 The current shortage was in di- rect contrast to the situation a year ago when thousands of ami mals were rushed to market be- cause the drought left farmers without feed. The situation now it reflection of the AAA pig-slaugh. ter program and last years drought, handlers said.
 The big packing plants, antici' pating a consumers boycott, are holding out against passing along the full increased prices. Once pork is removed from the dinner table the family may lose a taste for 1t. they fear.
 Women In open Revolt
 Penny-counting housewives in Detroit, Los Angeles and other cities are in open revolt against meat prices at the butchers.
 Led by militant Mrs. Mary Zuk, Detroit women gathered for a mass meeting to demand a nation wide 20 per cent slash in prices.
 The demand will be pressed be- fore the packers here and author ities in Washington, Mrs. Zuk said.
 The packers were uncertain how long they will be able to absorb the bulk of the higher prices. Stocks of pork in cold storage throughout the nation on Aug. 1 totalled 369,792,000 pounds as compared with 445,307,000 in July and 643,566,0 900 a year ago.
 Livestock men at the yards said packers must get additional hog supplies soon or close portions of their plants,

father of microscopy, who was the first to observe living things of mi- croscopic dimensions, and who was undoubtedly the first to observe bacteria. Leeuwenhoek's observa- tions led to revival of the belief which had been stated by advanced thinkers before him that certain diseases were caused by invisible living things, a belief later placed on solid foundations by Louis Pas teurs researches on fermentation, putrefaction and causation of dis ease (1S54-1S95). With the germ theory of disease firmly establishs ed, Lord Lister developed the first crude, germ-free surgery making the dreaded surgical knife a bene- ficial and kindly instrument of healing. Pasteur, Robert Koch and others demonstrated the first prin- ciples that led to present knowl- adge of infectious diseases and their prevention.
 Connecticut's Dr. Welch, born in Norfolk, Connecticut, in 1850, re- ceived the finest medical training in this country then went to Eu- rope and studied under Koch and others in 1884 and 1885. During the 50 years until his death in 1884, he attained the front rank in American medicine by his sound research studies, his thor ough teaching, his strength of char acter, end by the part he played in the founding of research labora. tories and institutions.

Mickle declared, deve!- oped the successful system for dis- ease control which has placed the public health laboratory in the first line of defense against mans invisible enemies.

To- day Connecticut has bureau of laboratories with we'll equipped di- visions of chemistry and physics, microbiology, serology and research and investigation, all manned with scientifically trained and expert. enced personnel. This corps of scientists and their assistants daily helps tc guard the health of Con- necticut citizens.
 Through the bureau, the direc- tor said. every public water supply is checked periodically by labora- tory examination to assist in pre-. venting outbreaks of intestinal dis eases; milk sanitation is enforced; the sore throat of neighb Dor may at this moment be under study to determine its significance to public health: spread of typhoid fever Is prevented, since typhoid patient will not be permitted to renew his former occupation or associations until the laboratory determines that he cannot spread germs to others: disease outbreaks are eff.
