"4 v Is SSL Precautions Are Suficient to Prevent Spread of Typhus WASHINGTON. Feb. 11. Pre cautions' taken and contemplated are believed by federal authorities to be sufficient to prevent a spread of the European typhus ep idemic to the United States. Sec retary Tumulty tonight informed Dr. It. S. Copeland. New York City health commissioner. Secretary Tumulty, in a tele gram to Dr. Copeland, quoted the secretary of the treasury who de clared there was noting to war rant inposition of a ban on the ad mission ' of immigrants from ty phus infested districts. Dr. Cope land s suggestion for such a ban resulted from the arrival at the Port of New York of more than 30 cases of typhus recently. Surceon-Ceneral C!nmmlnr In a statement today, said yiat even should the typhus get into the United States, "there Is no reason to fear that its introduction would be followed by epidemics on the same scale as in Europe." The surgeon general added "the disease thrives only in un sanitary and filthy surroundings for, so far as known, the disease is spread only by lice." Enrolment at S." H. S. y Largest Ever Entered Approximately 800 students, the largest enrollment ever en tered in the history of the Salem high school, will begin the new semester Monday. Of this number 85 will be students from the jun ior highs. This is nearly 100 in excess of the number enrolled dur ing the last semester. There will no doubt be consid erable difficulty in finding- room for this number as It as thought last semester that the building was crowded to capacity and that many of the classes were . too large. ThereMs pressing need for more class rooms and the space now occupied by the gym should be converted.lnto recitation rooms. It is hoped, however, that careful conservation of all space' will ren der the situation less difficult and will serve until the district is able to 'make' extensions of the present building. The making out of class pro grams for the coming semester has occupied most of the time during the last two days and the work will probably not be finished until sometime Monday. .Monday morn-1 ing the students meet, copy the programs and will, be dismissed for the rest of the day. The neces sary changing. ?.of .; programs will occupy the greater part of the art ernoon. . . .?..

The final dec.'sion as to the form of the pa per this year has followed much deliberation and a careful analy sis Of COSt. -w ..j.'. To publish an annual equal to that of last year would have cost the student body between 12500 and $3000, which it was felt jwonfd not be forthcoming 'with the average financial condition ot the students this year. Added to that was the question of the ad visability of expending such an amount for a high school paper. When the matter was first brought up it was hoped that the associated student body would give its publishers, the . senior class, financial backing, but the critical condition of the treasury led the student council to reject the offer of. co-operation in the management of it. The form under which its man ager. Milton Stelner, hopes to -make the financial end come out even, will be considerable of a re duction in Bize from that of last year. Although about one-half the size., it will nevertheless con tain all of the pictures ot the classes, the athletic teams, and pictures showing the most import ant of the student activities. I. W.

AT NAVAL BILL Hostility Shown Against the Appropriations Measure In House WASHINGTON, Fcb ,11. -The naval appropriation bill met hos tility in the house today but at the end was still afloat..

Hay knew him, as did the villagers, as William Vandergrlft. commonly called Bill. There was a rajostrel show ar ranged for a benefit of some con cern or other, and Hay, aa patron, attended.
