URGE
.IMMUNIZATION
FOR BABIES

The diptheria problem will nev-
.er be completely solved so long
as immunization for children is
put off until they enter school,
it is pointed out by members of
the Minnesota State Medical AS
sociation.
In 1885 there were only IL
deaths from diptheria in Minneso-
ia, according to figures of the
state board of health. This is a
dramatic drop from the tragic
figure of 566 in 1910.
But a large percentage of the
II were children under five years
of age. In the past 16 years, 37.6
per cent of the .1,845 deaths were
among children under five. These
small children form less than 10
per cent of the population but
they die at the rate of 125 per
every 1000 cases of diptheria.
That is why physicians are try
ing to reach the babies with diph-
liberia immunization. The dread
disease will not stop, they say,
until every baby between six and
twelve months of age is protected.

bill as practically the same as the
first draft, and added that in its
present form 1t was merely restate-
ment of the principales contained in
the A. A. A. act.

sition," McNary asserted. 1T voids

Frazier Wants Guarantee.
While the Oregon Senator was re-
ported to have urged the export de-
benture rlan of substituting exports as
more workable, Senator Frazier, Re-
publican, Of North Dakota contended
tor a guarantee of cost of produc-
ton.
The next text emphasized at the
outset the emergency nature of the
proposal declaring it was to pro-
mote the conservation and profitable
use of agricultural land resources by
temporary Federal aid to farmers and
by proviaing for a permanent policy
of Federal aid to States" later.
Retained were secretarial powers to
subsidize farmers for:
!. Their acreage Of soil improving
or erosion preventing crops.
2. Their acreage Of crop land.
3. Changes in the use of their land.
4. A percentage Of their normal
production Of any one or more agri-
cultural commodities designated by
the Secretary. which equals that per-
centage Of the normal national pro-
duction Of such commodities required
for domestic consumption.
Secretary Sole Reviewer.
Also retained was a provision max
ing the Secretary the sole reviewer Of
payments to farmers, leaving out the
controller general, who keeps a check
on most other Federal OUTLAWS.
Another original provision left un-
touched would permit the use of ex-
isting A. A. A. personnel without re-
gard to civil service requirements in
the 1885 soll-erosion act, which the
bill amerds and expands.
The Agriculture Department today
estimated the cash income of farmers
from sale OF farm products in 1885
was Sc. 9H2 00C, 900, compared with &c.
1877 100000 in 1884
December income was figured at
1898, 900, 600, compared with $500 ,000,-
900 in November and s473,OO0,000 in
December. 1884. A. A. A. benefit pay
ments IN December were $4,000 900,

It was the second act OF a drama
enacted behind the scenes since the

Mrs. Albion explained the small
amount OF cash in the box ONCE by
saying large number Of the patrons

tickets given to appease them after
the fiasco last Tuesday night.
