Considering all the danger and
ingenuity many scoops involve, it's
. little sad to know people forget
them In few hours After
lodging bombs in Barcelona all
day during the Spanish Civil War,
Larry Fernsworth used this method
TO get the news TO his London Times
editors first: He told Spanish auth
critics he wanted to visit the cap
tain Of British cruiser lying In
Barcelona From the cruiser he
was transferred to a swift de-
stroyer that whisked him TO a
French port. where he got off pos
ing as q ships messenger or inter-
prefer. Here he wrote and sent his
stories A few days later he
stepped off the cruiser latter visit
with the captain" =. And that's
how the British Navy and a reporter
relayed scoopsl
In case you think being foreign
correspondent Is cushy. or CLAM
orous occupation, this should frac-
ture your illusions: o. d. Gallagher,
the London Daily Express foreign
boy, had to travel 100000 miles In
three years In order to find news.
This little anecdote about Prime
Minister and q reporter tells more
about the stupid, short-sighted
thinking that was almost fatal to
democracieS than all the intellec-
tual essays ever written ;. Stanley
Baldwin told a reporter: II want
1t to be said OF me that never
sent q single Englishman to die
on foreign battlefield" But,
Prime Minister" he was reminded,
don't you see you are piling up
trouble that will kill million Eng
ushmen in the next warp"
That" said Baldwin calmly, us

The conservative attitude of the
N. Y. Times has always been a
good subject for quipsters :. One

When war comes 1t automatically
starts little wars between censors
and foreign correspondents -. 1t
forces many a reporter to become
something Of an espionage agent in
order to get his beats. Frixample:
When foreign correspondent G. E. r.
Gedye was in Vienna he got a pri-
vate telegram from Bucharest which
said: "Uncle Fritz dying fast stop

Which was secret code that King

BOARD APPROVES
FUND TRANSFER
Radio Equipment to Be
Purchased for Cars Oper=
ated By Fire Officials

A $1,000 transfer in the fire de-
partment appropriation to allow the
purchase OF two way radio equip
ment for three fire officials cars
was approved by the board of f.
nance last night. The money will,
be transferred from the salary item.
Several members of the board
were reluctant to give their ap-
prevail to the transfer, stating that
such an item had been removed
from the 1912 budget. However, it
was argued that the two-way radios
would be of great value in the event
Of an emergency.

Typhoid Carriers
Create Problem

Closer check of MichiganS 27l
known chronic typhoid carriers is q
wartime problem of the Michigan DE
psrtment Of Health. which announces
a marked falling off in reported ~
phOid cases. Carriers are persons who
barbOr typhoid organisms in their bo-
dies and who can transmit the disease
t. others. Wartime conditions are re-
turning many of these persons 10 pay
rolls and are influencing changes Of
residence.
Typhoid carriers are required to no
tify local health officers and the Mich
igan Department of Health Of changes
Of address. They cannot work in any
capacity in restaurants or other eStab-
iShmentS in which food is served.
Great prOgre - has been made in the
control of typhoid in Michigan. Since
1900 when DID cases were reported
a fairly constant decline 10 the l52
reported cases last year has been re-
corded. Last serious outbreak of the
disease in Michigan was in 1894 when
ca circus employees became i'll.
An estimated two per cent Of per
sons recovering from typhoid will re-
tain typhoid organisms in their bodies
longer. than one year. These are the
chronic typhoid carriers
