. Dr. Alan Welch Smith, president of
the city board of health, stated that In
'"accordance with a suggestion from Dr,
McClure ha had aent to the bureau of
animal Industry requisition for 10.000
t doses of tuberculin for use in testing
cows that have to do with Portland's
. mUIt supply. Dr. Tenney then announced
that Dr. McClure had made a requl
altlon upon the bureau for $10,000 to
be used In carrying on the work. The
Intrinsic value ef this donation to the
city from the government when made.
will not fall far short of 115,000; money
' could not measure the value, of Its re
sults In safeguarding consumers against
the dangers of diseased milk.
Mayor Simon opened the meeting by
stating vigorously that ha Is very, very
tired of milk enforcement talk. "It Is
time for us to stop talking and do
something," he declared. ' "Let us have
done with everything but that which
pertains to. the actual enforcement of
the milk ordinance and consequent reg
ulation of the milk supply." -His
attitude was approved by others
. present,, among whom were, Dr. ' Story
and Dr. Chipman of the city health
board.
All Cpws Will Be Teats.
Work of enforcing the ordinance will
now be carried on practlcallyand defin
itely. Dairymen are already beginning!
to receive from the city fcoard of health
statements defining what , they r must
do to conform with th ordinance. Th
testing of cows Tor 'tuberculosis will
proceed rapidly. "Two thousand cows
have already been tested. The dairy
commissioner made It plain this morn
lug that ha will not expect to contribute
his men ' exclusively to Insoectlon of
dairies In the vicinity of Portland, but
his agreement to deputise city Inspect'

After the resolution had been, read In
the upper bouse. Senator Jones of
Washington explained It in a speech eu-loglsln-T
Secretary Bellinger and dis
claiming any purpose of "whitewashing"
his administration of the publlo land.
"The various' departments and bu
reaus of the government are organised,"
he Bald, "to do Ita business in the in
terest of the people. ' Every official is
but the servant and Agent of the peo
ple, to -act for them under and within

of publlo service depends upon the con.
fldonce of tha people in the honesty and

'""It 'Is 'a sae 'commentary upon thai
state, of public sentiment that the mo
ment a man accepts a publlo- office he
becomes a scoundrel in the .eyes of
many of our people, and his previous
life of honesty and rectitude is no war
rant of official Integrity. HIS acts are
misconstrued and his motives ques
tioned. , ' Bays raw Officials Crooked. .
: "Insinuation and Innuendo are freely
made under the pretense of seeking pub
llo welfare, but In reality to foster som
private interest. Popular views in
taken advantage of to dlsoredit an offi
cial who -after Investigating all phases
ofl a ' subject may reach a decision at
variance with some private Interest.
Many do not stop to think how seldom
have government officials gone astray
compared with their opportunities snd
temptations for wrongdoing. In the 12S
years of our national life few men tn
high positions have been actuated by
other than the highest and most patri
otic motives. This should csuse our
people. to hesitate to accept charge of
base conduct against their public
servants without Investigation and
proof.
Points to Previous Xecord.
The press and magaslnea of tha
country for several montha have been
filled with charges against ths present
secretary of ths Interior and his conduct
of the office he holds. These charges,
ranging- from petty Insinuation and in
nuendo to direct charges of malfeasance
and misconduct in office, would, If true.
show that he. had most unworthily dis
charged his trust - A moment's thought
should cause an. honest and fair minded
man to hesitate to accept such charg-es
against av man whose whole life hereto
fore has been one of the highest recti
tude and against whom no dishonorable
charge has ever, been made in either
private or publlo life. Such a man is
the present secretary of the interior."

Senator . Jones ' outlined " the pubtle
services of Secretary: lUUingor. vile de

that he accepted the office of commis

said Senator Jones, "only upon the

Zn Comparison With Plnchot ,
Senator Jonea'here took occasion, to
declare that Secretary Bellinger waa
one of the most radical conservationists
In America. He .differed from .the
plnchot people, the senator stated, only
with regard to the methods to be employed.
"One thing Is sure." he cried, "we
have had several years of talk about
conservation, we have had platitude
piled upon platitude in the most dra

"Conscious of the purity of his mo
