LA GRANDE, OREGON.
Dr. Wiley is not an - orator and he
made no attempt at eloquence'- last
evening, but be had 'a message to de
liver and the importance and serious
ness of the message made oratorical
decorating unnecessary. ' .
Assuming that every man. woman
and child desires to live and that life
Is the greatest of all wealth, the ilis
tlnguisehd speaker went on to show
that that which we value most we
safeguard and treasure least. "We
all have the desire to live," he said
"but we do not act In accordance with
this desire. We have the wishbone
but not the backbone." : -
In this connection he recited the
acts of state legislatures in . appro
priating thousands upon thousands
of dollars for needless projects and
at the same time making but scant
provision for the preservation of hu
man life. New York state, he declar
ed, appropriated at one time ..$100,-
000,000 for the widening and deepen
ing of the Erie canal and even that
amount has been spent without ac
complishing much save the enrich
ment of a few. contactors. With
half that amount, he declared, be
could eradicate tuberculosis In the
same state. The state of Utah ( Just
the other. day appropriated $35,000
for the protection of sheep ' from
disease, he said, and gave the ' state
board of health $10,000 with which to
protect man from disease. "A sheep
Is., therefore, worth three and a half
times, as much as a man in Utah", he
said.
'. Tribute to Wilson.
Congress has absolutely ignored
(he need of health , protective meas
ures and appropriations, whlje no
president from the time of Washing
ton to the time of Taft has ever so
much as mentioned the public health
In his inaugural address or message
to Congress, he averred. However,
he expressed his hope and belief tha'
Woodrow Wilson would shatter this
precedent because in all of his pub
lic addresses he has always dwelt up
on the necessity of safeguarding the
health of the nation's inhabitants,
Half of Children Starving.
Warming up to bis subject, the
speaker declared that one of the s'nf
of the country la its Ignorance of the
science of nutrition. Medical col
. .... ... A
leges ne included in nls criticism for
neglecting this Important branch, de
claring that In All the time he stud
led medicine he was never told one
word a boit the value of nutrition's
a preserver of health and a phophy
lactic of disease. "I undertake to
say", he stated, "that right now half
of the children In the United States
are starving, some because of Insuffi
cient food, and the others from im
proper food." N
. In this connection he 'dealt death
blow to the popular Idea that babies
to be healthy must be fnt. "It Is the
lVur:U tu.li ui, cat it. iui a uaujr' iu Of
rolling in fat." he declared, "and ye
It Is every fond mother's desire to
have her Infant so." Ignorance com
bined with mother love make a com
bination that is fatal to thousands o'
panics, he stated. Because of their
love for Ihelr ' offspring they feed
them sweet s'uffs that are polsonon
io the delicate svstenis of the llttlr
ones. "Death collects Its taxes upon
infancy In the months of July and
August", he said, "and In those two
nmn'hs there are a thousand bahiee
dying In the United States every i,iv
because their parents know noth'nji
of the science of nutrition."

Or. Wiley delivered a scathing de
nunciation of the adulterating cor
porations whom he has been flght'n

Umatilla County Medical association,
who paid the visiting physician a
splendid tribute,' Incidentally, he
told the audience of how the medical
society hud .backed up Dr.' Wiley In
