Brown, county hpalth ifficer". Invmuniza tion of 257 children was accom plished. The work was carried on at clinics in Scotts Mills, Gervais, Kt.iyton. and IabiSh. Only 4S cases of contagious dis eases were reported for the month. Several of these were scarlet fever cases and seven diphtheria.

Coming to his peace proposals President Diax said: "The first problem that con fronts us is . that of making peace with our liberal brothers still un der arms.

It demands a statesman like' effort by both par ties to reach an agreement on the basis of a clear appreciation of the material factors of the situation. "My government proposes to Jhe liberals in arms who, being cut off from their Mexican military allies, are without means of-carrying on their movements to ulti mate success, a conference under the auspices of the American gov ernment at some conrenient point, preferably in Nicaragua, wirh a view to making peace-."
