TYPHOID CLINICS CONDUCTED

Six typhoid immunization clinics
were conducted in North East dur
ing May and June by members of
the Cecil County Health Unit, at the
request of the citizens. While no cas-
es of typhoid fever have been re-
ported in the community this year,
they wished this protection against
the disease.
A total of $40 persons reported
and received one or more doses of
the vaccine, 393 of these were school
children. 354 received the three in
jections which is the standard num-
Der advised; 100 received two injec-
tions; and, SO only one. Persons
who did not receive total of three
doses of the vaccine are urged to
obtain the second and third injec-
ton from their family physician, or
at the Health Officer in the Court
House on Monday or Saturday morn
ing.
The typhoid vaccine was given at
these clinics between the layers of
the skin rather than in the under
lying tissues, as is the general prac-
tice. The superficial injections have
the advantages of very seldomly
producing sore arms, or general
systemic reactions, such as fever
and headache. Also, the immunity
produced is reported to be greater
than that following the deeper in
| jections.

CONSUMERS RIGHTS"

With more and more people "eat

the three-a-day meals away from
responsibility for certain housekeep
ing duties has shifted heavily tt
public eating places.
Poorly washed dishes, glasses
knives, forks and spoons, have beer
classed as public enemies because
they may harbor germs of various
catching diseases. Accordingly
sanitarians in the employ of the
State Health Department have tt

to be sure that the State require

The situation was summed up by
Mr.. A. l.. Sullivan, Chief of the State
Bureau of Food and Drugs in re-
cent report to DR.. r. H. Riley, Di
rector of the State Health Depart
ment, as follows:
"The business of serving food
i, ranging from quick lunches to more
leisurely eating complete meals, il
stores, and other places not con
nected with restaurants and hotels
has increased tremendously and has
been accompanied by problems thai
can be solved only by patience, care
and intelligent cooperation on botf
sides.
''The consumer has right tt
clean eating utensils as we'll as tt
clean, wholesome food. Part of the
difficulty with respect to dish wash
ing and to keeping constant sup
ply of clean dishes on hand is due
to the haste and speed with which
large numbers of people have to BIZ

during rush hours.
For the sake of health as well as
to make the meal more attractive
all cooking and eating utensils
should be clean, bright and shiny.

"For the actual dishwashing, this
Bureau advises the following rou
tine, as the best way to get the
dishes clean and free from germs:
1. Wash dishes thoroughly using
clean hot water with soap or dish
washing powder.
2. Rinse in plenty of clean ho
water.
3. Dip in chlorine solution made
by adding 1 teaspoonful of any

is YOUR HOME SAFE?

Is your home relatively safe from
ire? Or is it alive with hazards?
Think twice before answering those
questions. For most homes contain
lefinite and critical fire dangers
which their owners never think
about. A survey made in Milwaukee
.estifies to that. A large number of
lome-owners were asked if their
homes were safe and the great bulk
If them said, Yes. Then the homes
we're inspected by experts, and in
he great majority, serious, obvios
ind easily-eliminated hazards were
Jnearthed.
Easements, attics, and closets are
prolific with fire hazards Old cloth
n.y. furniture, piles of discarded
newspapers and magazines and sim
lar rubbish are responsible for fire
damage running into the tens of mil
ions each year. Go through every
storage place, clean it out, and call
he junkman or your favorite
charity.
Garages and workshops constitute
still another great potential danger.
Paint, varnish, solvents, cleaning
fluids and other inflammable liquids
should be stored in tightly-closed
containers-a kept well away from
furnaces and heaters. A neat, clean
garage is always safer than dirty,
Uttered garage. Look around yours
today
Many a serious fire has been
started from shorts caused by fray
ed lamp cords--or by electric equip
ment which has been damaged and
improperly repaired by amateurs.
Check your exposed wiring-and
when anything goes wrong with
your gadgets, take them to quail
fed repairman. 1t won't cost you
much--and it may save a home and
life.

SEVENTY DAYS SET ASIDE
FOR DUCKING

Taking note of a one-third in
crease in the North American water
fowl population to 10O,O0O,OOO,
Secretary Ickes recently proclaimed
a To-day hunting season for wild
duck.
The fish and wildlife service OF
the Interior Department estimated
the watrfowl increase over last year
at 30,0O0,O00 mostly in the duck
classification, and added ten days OF
last years 60-day season.
While easing the restrictions on
ducks, Ickes frightened up on geese
doves and other migratory fowl
that have not increased in popula-
ton.
The duck shooting starts Septem-
Der rs in the Northern zone; Oc-
tober Is in the intermediate and
November in the Southern. Mary
land, Delaware and Virginia are in
the Southern zone.
The daily, unchanging bag limits
nducks are ten of all kinds with
not more than one wood duck, OF
more tina ''three singly, or in the
aggregate of redheads and buffie-
heads. No one at any one time may
posses more than 20 ducks.
The hunting hours are from sun
rise to sunset, instead of sunrise
to A D. m. as in previous years.
The new regulations reduced the
bag limit on geese and adopted Other
social safeguards, Ickes saying in
yestigations "have disclosed a de
cline in goose populations othel
than blue geese"

THE WAY TO DESTROY
PROGRESS

The American people must go
without a long list of things TO
which they are accustomed, in order
that vital materials may be used
for the war effort. They must pay
UNPRECEDENTED taxes, and on top or
that. invest a substantial share OF
their earnings in War Stamps ana
Bonds. This is part of the price That
all are willingly paying to gain VIC
tory in the greatest war in world
history. But, while doing this, the
American people are entitled to de-
mand that the government 1tseiI
take it's own medicine--and elimin-
ate preventable waste.
The electric power situation is an
outstanding case in point The drive
to socialize the private utility in
dustry goes on, despite its potential
ly damaging effect on war produc-
ton. AS part of that drive, the ad-
vocates of socialism are seeking to
obtain tremendous appropriations
for the construction of publicly-own-
ed power systems which virtually
duplicate existing private power
systems If that drive succeeds, 1T
will mean that tens of millions OF
dollars, hundreds of millions OF
man-hours of labor, and gigantic
quantities of vital and scarce mater
ials will be literally wasted.
1t is argued that this grand ad-
venture in state socialism is essen
tial to the war effort. But the plain
act is that the war effort demands
full utilization of all power re-
sources, and the planned destruction
of private power developments
would be the surest way to create
a devastating power shortage in the
future. 1t takes no economist to
figure out that prosecuted indus
tries are not progressive industries
Private power executives have
long urged the pooling of all power
generating and distribution systems
SO that maximum utilization OF cleo
tricity can be gained at minimum
cost in time, money, materials and
labor. That is the way of common
sense and justice--and it is the way
to get results. Here is vital mat
ter on which the American people
must make their views felt before
Federal specialization of the electric
industry is an established fact. A
dangerous start has been made.

CONNECTICUT DISCONTINUES
SEMI-ANNUAL INSPECTION

Connecticut has discontinued COM
pulsory inspection of motor vehicles
on the ground that the semi-annual
inspection, requiring car owners to
drive long distances to the stations,
was working hardship upon war
workers and other citizens.
In announcing the action of the
Connecticut authorities, the Key
stone Automobile Club points out
that advocacy of similar action in
New Jersey is gaining public sup
port. In Pennsylvania and Maryland
conditions are different, with num-
erous garages, designated as official
inspection stations, within easy
reach of motorists.
Nevertheless, the Club reports a
growing feeling among motorists
that wartime conditions call for a
relaxing of some Of the regulations
imposed in recent years. Motorists
feel they are unnecessarily burdened
with taxes and restrictive rules.
using rationed gas to reach official
inspection stations Is particularly
objectionable to many drivers.
Against this point of view is the
contention of safety authorities that
highway accidents will continue to
increase, even win decreased traffic
volume, unless motor vehicles are
kept in first-class mechanical con-
dition. They assert motorists will be
apt to overlook the safety features of
their cars If the vehicles are not
checked semi-annually.

LEASED ACREAGE
GIVES MONTANA
GOOD REVENUE
STATE COMMISSIONER WALKER
ESTIMATES DEPARTMENT WILL
TURN OVER $500. 900

j. w. Walker, state commissioner Of
land and investments has estimated
his department would turn over TO the
Montana school fund $500. 900 from It's
share OF crops grown on leased state
lands this year.
Walker said that as a result the ap-
portionment per pupil TO the various
counties would be well above the
average for the last several years, but
would not reach the alltime high Of
1896 per pupil last year. He explained
that a year ago his department made
a profit Of some s225. 900 through bond
sales, but that this source Of revenue
had been reduced this year.
However he added, the states share
Of crops grown on leased lands would
be considerably larger this year than
in 1871. He estimated the return from
wheat crops would amount to about
100000 and that from flax. barley,
oats and rye crops would total about
100000. Crop shares last y
amounted TO 1927 900.
Walker credited the excellent crops
obtained by farmers this year with
the estimated large return and for
additional revenue In the form OF paid
up contracts on lands sold on the in
stallment plan. He said dozens OF
farmers, having their second good
crops in two years, were paying up, as
much as IS years in advance on
purchases of lands and were obtaining
patents Immediately
The land commissioner explained
that most sales Of state lands we're on
33-year contracts, although some were
on 10-year agreements. During the
drouth years, he said scores Of farm
ers fell behind on their payments, but
by legislative enactments in 1899 and
1871 we're exempted from payment Of
penalty interest. With last years ex-
cellent crop, he said, most farmers
paid virtually all delinquencies, and
the crop and good price this year re-
suited In advance payments on the
contracts.
Walker said his office received from
three TO four checks each day. repre-
senting advance payments to obtain
permits.
He said the moratorium laws passed
by the last two sessions Of the legis-
lattlre had resulted In encouraging
farmers to hold onto their land and
that he intended TO ask the 1913 ses-
sion to re-enact the moratorium for
two years more.
Walker said 5,794 acres Of state
land in Madison county and all lands
in the county taken back for nom
payment Of state loans would be Of
fered for sale in Virginia City. Most
Of the land, he said was range land,
although some parcels Of farmland
were included. In most cases, he said
ranchers OF farmers who had leased
the land for some time planned TO
purchase it outright. Under state law,
no state-owned farmland may be sold
for less than $40 an acre and no graz
ing land for less than IS an acre.

Question of TGUern
Licenses Again Put
Before State Court

The question Of how much a tavern
operator in a small town near q large
city should be charged for liquor Ii
cense is again before the Montana
supreme court.
The Montana liquor control board
appealed to the high court from de-
cision Of the Silver Bow county dis
trict court which held that John Pol
lard, Rocker tavern keeper, need pay
only a $500 license fee instead Of the
$500 fee assessed by the liquor control
for taverns within five miles Of cities
with more than 10000 population. Dis
trict Judge 7. E. Downey handed down
the decision Oct. 5, 1942.
In the original suit which named the
liquor board as defendant, Pollard was
Joined by Al other tavern operators In
villages adjoining Butte. Pollard asked
that the court declare the rights Of
the plaintiff under chapter 1853, ses-
sion of laws Of 1871, directing the de-
PENDANT to issue a retail liquor dealers
license to the said plaintiff for the
year 1912 on payment TO the defendant
Of a 500 license fee"
The section provides that licenses
for unincorporated towns or villages
near larger cities must pay the license
fee charged in the city. On a sliding
scale set up by the act, rural taverns
and those in towns Of less than 1000
pay 500 fee; those In towns of 1000
to 5000, a $500 fee; those in cities Of
5000 to 10000. a $3.50 fee; and those in
cities Of 10000 or more, a $500 fee.
The supreme court held. on April IS.
1912. in an action brought against the
liquor board by Joseph Vantura Of
East Helena, that a tavern proprietor
In an incorporated town within five
miles of a larger city need not pay the
fee charged the city operators.
