Isolation of Lepers
Is India's Problem
MANILA (AP) Isolation of the
leper Is one of the serious prob

It. J. Ikmglaa of Uangoon, Iturma,
who Is In the Philippines to muki
a detailed study of conditions of
lepers In the Islands and met hods
of treatment employed at c ttllon
where 51.00 lepers are canrined.
"We huve llllt.Olt lepers reg

there are-as . many inore unregis

are 1 H.ana known lepers In Itur

the serious problems of India. Tho
country Is In I he throes of sev
eral upheavals at present und too

most Impossible In India."

Hanie I'bshlon who. ever since
the Indians relinquished Uiclr laud
has smiled upon the red man,
. iuniig ineir ciinractcristic crea
tions popular with the .white bre
thren, now is frowning upon the
t offerings of Ihe dexterous tribes
men. ,
1 I r. w. 11. Ileagerty, superin
tendent of tint tllbway Sales
j Agency, says that the Indian's
contributions to curio collections
such us beaded things, blanket,
lace handkerchiefs ami miniature
blrch-hark canoes, must be revo
lutionized to further capitalize
the modern white man's pas-don
for novelties. , ...
j The superintendent blames fash-
ion alone for Iho complicated
situation which the agency pro-
muted by tlu. Kplscopal Diocese of
I DulUth, now Is attempting to solve
by teaching its Indian proteges
that, lo continue in the bloodless
J fight against the high cost of liv
ing iney must cater to the fantas
tic whims bestowed by custom up
on their white neighbors.
In ycurs past, according to Dr.
Ileagerty, th0 Indian, or rather
his squaw, found a ready market
for the waste paper, baskets, work
baskets, miniature canoes and
other trinkets, which they made
with their own hands, tint now
fashion decrees that It Is no long
er correct to have these curios in
sight, around tho house, so sales
have fallen to virtually nothing.
OJlbway women also make ex
quisite point luce handkerchiefs
which formerly brought fancy
prices, but custom holds that Ihey
are no longer In style so these one
time pop u lur ornaments go a-beg-
jgtng, says the superintendent.
"Another conflicting angle," Jr.
Heugerty continues, "concerns the
beudwork on bags, moccasins anil
chains done by OJlbway women.
The cost of glass now Is so high
und the quality so Inferior that
beud work cannot be done ut a
profit. .
"And the worst of all Iho In
dian, deprived of his tribal cos
tumes by the udvanee of civiliza
tion, cannot understand ull of this.
It is especially difficult for them
to turn their talents to 'other
channels."
The problem was revealed to
m fusion workers during the first
year's operation of the Ojihway
Hales Agency. This agency was
established to-' help the ' rapidly
diminishing ' tribesmen, to bridge
the gulf between themselves and
the white man clvlllzu't tin by
effecting "an economic and moral
reformation."
The church would abolish the
old trading posts, whereby the
Indian received In exchange for lits
offerings merely food, tobacco and
the necessities of life, and would
obtain cash for t heir product h
riil. It Is hoped, will enable them
lo learn the trim value of money
so that Hi years later when they,
according to law, are no longer
government charges, they will be

Dl'Hl.IN, (AP) Patrick Hogan
the Free Slate minister for lands
ami agriculture, ha introduced
Into the Dull a bill to regulate tho
export of eggs. Kggs are ono of
the most Important of Irish ex
ports, and the Industry has recent-
i I shown signs of deterioration. In
Irelund exported xfo,oiiu,ooo
worth of eggs, poultry and feath
ers, the value of Ihc export being
secondonly to thut of rattle.
For tho year ended March 30,
11124, tho Free State export of eggs j
wua only about $ I7,ooo,t)u0. Part :
of tho diminution Is attributed to
a full in prices und the expansion
of opportunity for continental
,.omm.titors since, the war. Before
tho wur th Irlah exIlort Wu more
than 60 percent greater than tho
Danish. Now It is less.
t'nder Mr. Hogan's bill all eggs
for export must bo collected In
premises registered by the minis
try of agriculture, tested und
graded under official supervision
und packed In standard boxes. It
Is hoped by ubollshlng defective
packing and grading to double the
