REFORM LONG PAST DUE

Human rights and human needs
are above budgets" Governor Ellis
Arnall of Georgia said in calling the
legislature into session to reform the
states medieval prison system. In
that sentence, the Governor revealed
a viewpoint long held by organized
labor, which has always placed hu-
manity's rights above the dollars
rights.
Governor Arnall was replying to
politicians who he predicted would
oppose the special legislative session
on the ground that it was a needless
expense. But he declared prison re-
form was urgent and indicted the
states prison system as inhuman. He
said that Georgia had denied prison
ers the treatment any must have and
cited facts to prove his charge.
Georgia's prison system, with its
notorious chain gangs, has long been
Infamous as an example of what a
prison system should not be and it is
good news that a determined effort is
on to change it for the better. It can
stand lot of improvement, as can
also the prison systems of other
states, both the north and south

to have created false impression of
the Foundations activity, but if that
was done on the basis of one-sided
presentation of facts In the daily
press, may it not be that some of the
blame must be laid right back at the
doorstep of the Woodworking national
chairman, Mr.. Basil O'Connor?
But, however that may be, let's be
glad that a most promising new
method of treatment is getting all
possible backing.

D. {. Dog-Muzz|ing Order
To Be Inforced Strictly

Trouble for Washington dogs and
dog owners is threatened under an
order issued yesterday by the Com
missioners.
The Commissioners issued their
usual order requiring that all dogs
be muzzled from May l to Septem-
Der 80, with good substantial
muzzle," which must be securely
put on" Any unmuzzled dog per-
mitted to run at large"-that is,
not held in leash by it's owner or
other responsible person-is to be
picked up and taken to the pound
This year the order means what
it says" said Poundmaster Frank
Marks. I'VE may have been lax in
the past in delaying enforcement,
to give some period of grace, but this
year we are going to start collecting
unmuzzled dogs or those not on
leash, beginning exactly on Nav L.
Dogs taken to the pound may be
rescued from death if owners act
promptly in paying the cost of
incarceration" This is 50 for a
licensed dog, but if the dog is both
unlicensed and unmuzzled or not on
leash the total cost is 81.

There was bedlam, and no time

At rendezvous, we tidied up. In
two OF the planes, crew men swung
over bomb-bay doors, unscrewed the
live fuses in bombs which had got
ten stuck, and kicked them out.
Then five planes sweated back to
our nearest base. The sixth was
the worst hit. Its bomb-bay doors

Rutland Offers WAYS
To Curb Measles in
Revealing Epidemic
800 Cuses of German
Type and 900 Of Red
Reported Since Jan. ]

Ways to avoid transmitting COM
municable diseases were outlined
yesterday by Health Officer George
C. Rutland as he confirmed reports
that there is an epidemic of measles
in Washington.
One of the points stressed was
that parents should see that their
children are kept at home and out
of contact with other persons when
they have or are suspected of hav-
ing communicable disease.
The Health Department reported
| there have been 600 cases of Ger
man measles since January l, with
200 cases being reported during the
last month, and 900 cases of the
somewhat more serious red"
measles since the first of the new
year.
Advice Given to Parents.
In his advice to parents, prompted
by complaints that many children
have been lettering on the streets
after having been sent home from
school because of suspected COM
municable diseases, DR.. Rutland
said:
"At the present time there is an
epidemic of German measles. There
are prevalent also many other COM
municable infections and there is
increased danger of epidemic in
fections on account Of congested
and crowded housing incident to
war activities.
For the above reasons parents
are advised to take all necessary
precautions to prevent the spread of
infections among children. If all i'll
children are properly cared for at
home instead of being permitted on
the street or allowed to attend
school, it will materially reduce
transmission of communicable dis
ease"
The health officer said the total
incidence of measles recorded so far
this year was the greatest in his
recollection, adding that warm
weather should spell an end to
such ailments. However, he said,
German measles were affecting per-
sons of all ages, including many
adults. One victim is a man over
10 years old.
Health Suggestions Made.
Among points of advice given by
the health officer to parents were
the following:
Observe children daily for sign of
deviation from health.
Do not permit an i'll child to at
tend school.
Keep child with known or sus-
pected communicable disease off the
streets, away from contact with
children for entire period of COM
municability and convalescene.
Do not permit other children to
visit the Ill child in the home.
Isolate the i'll child from other
children in the home as much as
possible.
Consult the family physician early
if child shows evidence OF illness or
symptoms of communicable disease.
Notify school principal without de-
lay. by phone If possible. whenever
child is kept at home because Of,
actual or suspected communicable
disease.
Keep dishes used by i'll child sep
arate from those used by others
living in the home.
Sterilize all dishes with boiling
| water.
Persons attending i'll or GONZALES
cent patients always wash hands
thoroughly with soap and water:
After handling patient. Before pre-
pairing food. Before eating.
