Nathan Straus' Instruction to
, Mothers, Is Important bu
That All Uncertified Milk
Shouid Be Pasteurized.
Washington. Oct. The duty of the
to. protect tr.e paoies rrom
diseases that may be carried to them
. ijt ra milk is strongly urged by Nathan
Straus, founder of Infant milk depots
. . In many cities.
- v Mr. gtraus said in part before the
ffttttnt session of the International
(Congress on Hygiene: "The betterment
ef . milk production is not prbperly the
'Work-of voluntary organizations.- It Is
the duty of the public authorities,
- tiv" maintained this for 20 years.
-- urged this In a letter-to the mayors of
.. (American cities la 1895, and at the con
ference of mayors In 1897 and in 1900,
reciting the results of nine years' prac
tical experience. I urged that the pas-
tuerislng of the entire, milk supply be
- "jnaaa toe function or the municipality,
' Incalculable suffering and . disease
would thereby be prevented. .
More Work to Be Sons.
- v "But 'municipal authorities were not
fclive -to their opportunity, and this
r ork for humanity had to be carried
n by i voluntary organizations. Now
' municipalities have taken up this work,
'but there Is still room for the yolun-
-itary organizations in teaching the mu-
jjiicipal authorities what to do, and how
to do it, and in pushing them on to the
J full performance of their duty to the
i cables.
, "When the peril of tuberculosis In
raw milk came forcibly to my attention
i wore than 20 years ago. the very man
1 he had. isolated the tubercle bacillus
jwouted the Idea. We had not merely
i uninformed public, but a raisin
, formed public to deal with. My warn

'Tnth-derntlon, or with open and bitter
attacks. Boi now there is practical

and -xooapraaenalva -plan ot betterment
that needs to be applied and enforced
In every city of the land. This Is the
chief and Imperative work and duty of
.voluntary organizations. All Infant milk
depots are to be examples of what
ought to be done by . public officials
with public funds. All milk committees
are charged with the responsibility of
seeing to the adoption and, enforcement
qf this program, :,. .
Duty of Milk Depot
-"The fundamental and vital duty of
the milk depot is to furnish milk In
nursing - bottles, one feeding tp the
bottle, ' properly modified, and p&staer-
lzed in the bottles. The supplying of
dipped milk by auch depots ought to be
prohibited. . - - .. .

method of preventing sickness among
babes, an average of 2200 babes wero
supplied with milk from my laboratories
in New Tork city the past summer, and
there was only one death, and that was
from pneumonia,
"Instruction of mothers Is Import
ant Medical attention is important.
But It is a grievous error to make sec
ondary the supplying of the food that
the babies need.' There la an unfortu
nate disposition to exaggerate the "con
sultation," exhaust resources upon doc
tors and nurses and do little In the way
of feeding the- babies. In New York my
17 depots are the only ones out of 109
lh the city that supply modified pas
teurized milk In nursing bottles.
Impossible In Tenements,
"It Is well to teach mothers how to
modify and pasteurize mlk at . home
when they are out of reach of a milk
depot, but this is feasible only for the
better situated classes. Conditions In.
tenements do not make It possible for
mothers to do this work properly,
The babies cry for protection
against disease; their mothers lift their
hands in frantic supplication for their
little ones. Disease and death throw
their shadow over the cradle and engulf
the mothers of the land in. the lnextln-"
guishable sorrow that we can ward
away. It is a call to battle a can to
energetic and united action. It is
not enough to educate the public and
the health officers. We must strain all
our resources to save the babies that
are now living and all those who will
come into the world before the tardy
hand of official administration has been
quickened and strengthened to grapple
with this menace to the home and to
the land.
Save the Babies.
"We need infant milk depots, we need
doctors and nurses consecrated to the
work of assurlnar to the UttU ontos the
food tl.attfhey-need free from the taint
of disease. The babies are human be
ings, not subjects for study and exhibit!
for committees .or doctors They are
human beings threatened with death",
and it is our function to save them not
to talk about them,, not to experiment
with them, not to catalogue them, but
to , give them the chance to livo that
they can have only In properly pasteur
ized milk properly modified.
"This Is a work to stir the good red
blood in every man and woman, a work
that has greater possibilities of good
than any other that I have ever heard
for. a work that will pay dividends In
tite satisfaction that can come only In
eipmg the little ones, in making their
hands dkubby and their faces rosy and
giving them the fair start In life to
which they are entitled."

New York, Oct. t. Miss VIeva
Ftbher, daughter of Mrs. Joel E. Fisher,
prominent In exclusive society of New
Tork and Newport, has returned from
Europe with her mother, leaving be.
hind her in Italy the shreds of a shat
tered romance. Miss Fisher was to
have become the bride of Oulseppe Flam
ingo, a prominent newspaper editor of
Home, and a well known figure in high
society at the Italian capital. The en
gagement was broken almost on the
eve of the weddjng for reasons not
given out, but said to be a 'demand of
an exorbitant dower by the Italian edl
tor. - -
oording to a report to the state depart
ment by Consul General Mansfield, at
Zurich. Several of these roads are now
in operation and the demands of tour
ists, who want comfort In the ascent
and descont of mountains, and who en
Joy the novelty and sensations exper
ienced In scaling the heights tn cars
carried through the air on cables, are
encouraging the construction of aerial
routes over some of the most difficult
places In the Alps. Heretofore aerial
railways have been used' only for mili
tary and industrial purposes.
Many Swiss people who love their
mountains and enjoy the beauty and
grandeur of the Alpine scenery regard
these innovations -with disfavor, claim
ing that they detract from the charm
which the Creator gave to the great
heights and the glaciers.

their headquarters at the Ohio state unl-
ierslty.and.lhere.4lMUflithe rights and
destiny of the race as Americans in
America. - '
The leaders of the conference deny
that the Indian Is vanishing and assert
the contrary.
Representative Charles D. Carter says

shirt to a museum or stowed it away as
an heirloom, that he vanished; when he
put on a tailor made Buit.
Indians Keally Wealthy. .
He reminded his Interrogator that the
Indians were the most wealthy people
In America per capita, they having an
average of $3500 each; and that the In
dian still Md enough land In his own
right, to equal the acreage of several
large Mates, This, he said, was why
land and dollar hungry white human
sharks were willing to make all kinds
of representations to prejudice the pub
lic as to the Indian and his fate.
Among the leaders of this movement.
which Is held under the auspices of the
Society of American Indians, are many
well known men and women in public
and private life. These include sena
tors, representatives, teachers, farmers.
lawyers, doctors, artists, scientists and
politicians of all parties, and a Host of
thinking men and women, all Indians.
Among ine vice presidents of the so
ciety Is Representative Carter of Okla
homa, the former chief of Choctaw coun
cil, pr. Sherman Coolidge, a well known
Episcopal clergyman and a graduate of
one or two eastern colleges, la the presk
dent ; He also is a full blood Arapahoe,
and was born In a buffalo hide tepee In
the Rocky mountain foothills.:; His life
Is a romance from his earliest days. Dr.
Charles - A." 1 Eastman,- th- -well known
Sioux writer and lecturer, and Dr. Car
los Montezuma, the Apache physician
of Chicago, are" two members -of-the
medical profession who are among the
leaders.'' ;,:

blood are Professor j. n. B. Hewitt of
the Smithsonian Institution and Arthur
