Anti-TB Body
.UrgesPassage
OF FundBi||

Endorsing the Washington
State Health Departments
request for $4,500,000 to help
maintain and operate tuber-
culosis sanatoria, the Anti
tuberculosis League of King
County is urging favorable
passage of the bill by legisla-
tors, George D. Anderson,
president, stated yesterday.
THE bill would appropriate
funds for the biennium April l.
1947 to March 81, 1949 and would
be spent IN direct grants-in-aid to
counties for the care of tubercu-
losis patients" Anderson explain
ed.
Before tuberculosis can be
brought under control in Washing
ton adequate disqualification must
be provided for those persons who
have tuberculosis now, he said.
During the war many of the beds
in the sanatoria could not be filled
because of the shortage of hos
pital personnel. However, now it
is possible to increase the person.
mel and care for more patients.
The State tuberculosis Equali-
cation Fund was set up in 1943 to
supplement local funds when they
are insufficient to fill the local
need. The patient cost per day in
sanatorium has risen from 1888
in 1914 to $6.15 per day estinat-
ed for 1947. according to figures
released by the Washington State
Health Department.

The largest settlement came in
two suits against Takei and Nat
suye Iwamura and their children

title to 100 acres of rich farming
land in the Selma-Sanger area.
Under terms agreed upon, title
to one parcel of so acres was
quoted in the name of Akira Iva
mura, u. S. Army veteran who
was overseas when the state in
stituted legal action to confiscate
his farm property on the ground
that his parents maintained an in

shishi Chiamori while Akira CHA
mort, another son, and his wife,
Toyoko, were given, the title to
&c acres.
In settlement of a fourth suit
brought by the state for alleged
alien land law violations. Hanako
Ishii Teraoka received the "a n d

ment of S3,SS7.50 to quiet title to

Continuing Cost of War

There are 14,361,00O veterans of
World War II, said the Veterans Ad-
ministration this week, and the aver
age veteran is 20 years old, four years
the senior of the average man or
woman still in the armed services.
Nearly two-thirds of these men and
women veterans have terminal leave
bonds totaling 81, 800, 000, 600.
These bonds can be cashed at local
banks starting September l or the
bondholders may hold their securities
and draw 2k per cent interest for five
years. President Truman advised the
latter course unless veterans were &C
tually n need of money.
The bonds were issued, mostly to
former enlisted men, as pay for leaves
they did not get in service.
The Veterans Bureau reported that
the average age of the World War I
veteran is 53.7 years; Spanish-Ameri-
can war veteran, I'll years; Indian
Wars, IS, and Civil War, 1907 years.

Constitution
A 22nd Amendment?

Eighteen states, half the required
number, already have ratified the pro-
posed 22nd amendment to the Consti-
tuition, limiting Presidents to two
terms. They did it in less than five
months.
1t probably will be more than two
years, however, before 10 other states
can act unless a lot of special legisla-
tive sessions are called next year.
Twenty states do not have regular
legislative sessions again until 1949.
Congress gave the states W
years to act when it submitted the
amendment in mid-March. Approval
of three-fourths of the states is needed
to make an amendment effective.
The 10 states which thus far have
ratified the anti-third term amend
ment are ali outside the South. The
only two southern states which con-
sidered it have failed to approve.
Oklahoma's Senate postponed action
indefinitely and the Texas House re-
iected it outright.
The states approving the proposal
of the Republican-controlled Congress
are, in the order of ratification:
Maine, Michigan, Kansas, Iowa,
New Hampshire, Illinois, Delaware,
Oregon, New jersey, Vermont, Cali
fornia, Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Colorado, Connecticut, Missouri and
Nebraska.

Gambling
Bookie Cleanup

New York was in the middle of
a periodic drive against gambling.
While the heat was on, most of the
towns big bookmakers either closed
up shop or took a busman's holiday by
going to Saratoga themselves.
The gambling cleanup started as
two grand juries, in the Bronx and
Queens, probed charges that horse
racing bookmakers had to pay protec-
ton money to police in order to oper-
ate. The drive was accompanied by
more than 100 shifts in police, trans
fers, demotions and designations.
The first weeks arrests totaled 709
on gambling charges. These included
rs for bookmaking, I'll for card play
ing, 29O for dice, 1874 for policy or
lottery and 80 miscellaneous cases.
The number of arrests wa 174
fewer than the average arrested week
ly last year, but police officials said
this reflected an exodus of gamblers
from the city.
Police Commissioner Wallander
opened a special detective school for
some 200 young patrolmen, most OF
them war veterans, who ultimately
will replace most of the present force
of 300 plainclothesmen.

about 81 quarts for every man, woman

Strawberry was third.
. In Addison, Mich, a patient hold
up man stood in line for a half hour
before getting to the teller's window
of the crowded Addison State Savings
Bank, then took $4,000 at gunpoint
and escaped.
In Olivet, Mich, a pigeon, I'M

the porch of Mather Hall, Olivet Col
lege science building, and the porch
collapsed.

Red Tide
Recurring Plague

After disappearing for 20 hours,
Florida's mysterious ish-killing "red
tide" r%eappeared off the gulf coast and
Uttered Pinellas County beaches with
fresh carcasses.
The state board of health Joined
county authorities in combating the
plague which already had left mil
lions of fish dead and rotting along
swanky beaches from Sarasota to
Clearwater.
Heaviest concentrations washed
ashore at Treasure Island as county
road crews and volunteers from the
US. Maritime Station at St. Peters,
burg buried the debris with road ma
chinery. For the most part, these fish
were recently killed and did not have
the stencil of earlier deposits.
Few swimmers braved the water on
the hump of Florida's west coast after
wave of skin irritations and rashes
afflicted bathers. Health authorities
said there were no serious cases, how
ever.
Scientists still are trying to deter
mine the cause of the plague.
DR.. F. G. Walton Smith, director Of
Miami University's marine laboratory,
said the tide" was caused by millions
OF micro : organisms (gymnodinium
orevls). What caused the sudden in
crease in these tiny organisms, how
ever, has not been learned.
indignant beach residents insisted
at first the tide was caused by dump
ing OF Army mustard gas bombs. The
Army denied this although admitting
II dropped a few faulty gas bombs in
July, 1916, which, it said, were neu-
'rallzed Immediately on contact with

Tourists
Hemisphere Visos

Hemisphere Visos
While Pan American diplomats on
ferred on hemisphere defense in Rio
de Janeiro this week the Inter-Ameri-
can Tourist Congress wound up it's
first convention in Panama. All Amer
lean republics except Paraguay and
Uruguay were represented.
Biggest fruit of the conference was
recommendation of a continental tour
lists card, and standard tourist and
immigration practices throughout the
western hemisphere.
The continental tourist card, valid
for six months, would eliminate pass
ports and departure permits for inter-
American travel. The various govern
ments would require certificates Of
good behavior, health, financial SOL
vency and citizenship before issuing
these cards, obtainable directly from
the governments or their consulates.
The Pan-American Union has been
asked to prepare a model card for dis
tribution among member governments
and Canada.
