Local Ordinance Similar to
- One Prepared by U. S.
Health Body
Strangely enough, the milk
ordinance which has been in
force in Salem in the past year
and a halt is almost identical to
the model milk law devised by
the United States health senrlee.
E(Jv.ard Lee Russell, school phy
sician, told his sophomore health
education class Monday morning
in an address on "Milk Preserva
tion in Relation to Health." The
Salem milk ordinance was pub
lished beWre the federal pnttera.
As a result of Ru3seH's address,
the high school students learned
much about the city's milk supply
that they knew not before, and
much that may be parsed on wiih
advantage to mothers and fath
ers. They learned, for example, that
lwcr.use mil It is one of the most
difficult foods to handle and be
cause of directive handling of this
"foster mother of the human
race," infant mortality in the
1'nited States wis hi?h before

tality was 210 per 1000; now.
thanks tr milk regulations and
better knowledge of handling
milk, only 67 infants per 1000
die in this country. Since work
of the Commonwealth Fund In
Marion county the rate here la
down to 34.6 per 1000. le:s than
half that for the country.
Average IaUy
Consumption :?,IOO Gallons
An average of 3,100 gallons of
milk is consumed In Salem each
day, Russell told the class.
In connection with discussion
tot the local milk ordinance it
self, the students found that re
quirements could be segregated
briefly: tuberculin testing of all
dairy herds every 12 months; pe-
riotic inspection of dairy barns
and equipment; milk house must
he separate .from barn or Jiouse
and milk cooled below 50 de
crees Fahrenheit or delivered to
hours; milk must be under 50,000
bacteria per cubic centimeter;
safe water supply and sanitary
tni'et; health examination for all
milk handlers; eoncrete floors,
cleanable walls and proper light
ing and ventilation must be in
all pasteurizing plants; steriliza
tion by steam or chlorine solu
tion; mechanically bottled and
capped.
Per Cent Butter-fat
Fhod as Minimum .
The ordinance also provides
for pasteurization, free of all
v'-ible" dirt and must contain
not 'less than. 3.25 per cent but-
i erf at. Salem milk supply is
row 80 per cent clean as a re
fult of the, ordinance, as against
70 per cent fairly clean and 30
per cent dirty in 1924, Russell
s-iid. Pasteurization has increas
fd from 60 per cent in 1925 to
84 per cent in 1930. In the last
18 months, three times as many
milk house as before in use have
born constructed and bacteria
ejunt in 192S was 6000 for pas
teurization, a drop of 3.000 over
the previous year, and for raw
milk the count in 1929 showed
Jl',o00,-a drop of 3,000 front
ir28.
Only grade A raw and grade A
pprteurized milk is sold in Salem,
nd all butter and ice cream is
paf'eurized, the latter by state
law, he told the st'udents.

NEW YORK. Jan. 20. (AP)
The stock market began the
new week today with a relapse
Into speculative apathy. Price
trends were shifting and indefi
nite, and represented little more
tUan the shifting of professionals
scalping for a point or two. Sales
totaled 1.692,640 shares, only
moderately above the turnover
for Saturday's abbreviated ses
sion. The market was subjected to
rather sharp bear pressure dur
ing the first hour, rallied moder
ately before midday, and wore a
ragged aspect until the last half
Jiour, when prices firmed up un
der the influence of short cover
ing. Net changes at the close
were largely narrow. The price
index of 90 leading stocks showed
a gain of only 1-5 of one point.
Credit remained easy, with call
loans again renewing at 4 per
rent, and the rate later dropping
to 4. The stock exchange's com

Classification of Cons
And Sejegation Asked
By Officials of Oregon
The more hardened type of
criminal must be kept apart from
tne younger first time offenders
if the criminal corrective systeu
or tne state is to reach its highest
possible efficiency, is the opinion
of officials at the Oregon state
penitentiary. This phase of the
criminal problem is one of the
most serious, an 1 final solution
rests with the legislature which
plone has authority to provide
funds for making segregation of
prisoners possible, they declare.
The late Governor Patterson,
prior to his death, conducted an
exhaustive investigation of the
criminal problem with the result
that he Issued a public statement
that he intended to go before the
1931 legislature and seek funds
with which to establish a prison
annex. It was proposed by the
late governor that the annex
would be utilized for housing
youthful first-term offenders who
are now committed to the main
institution.
The survey conducted by the
late Governor Patterson indicated
that the cost of establishing the
proposed prison annex would not
exceed $50,000. Virtually all of
the money would he used in the
construction of buildings on state
lands formerly occupied by the
old state training school for boys.
It was planned to carry on inten
sive farming operations at the an
nex so that the youthful prison
ers would be kept busy during the
period of their incarceration.
The plan proposed by the late
Governor Patterson received the
indorsement of Henry Myers, su
perintendent, and other officials
of the state penitentiary. Myers
declared that such segregation
probably would be the means of
restoring to useful citizens a large
number of young men who other
wise would become confirmed
criminals.
In connection with the prison
annex proposal the late governor
also had recommended the estab
lishment of a parole system sim
ilar to that now in operation at
the state training school for boys.
decline of only 0.16 per cent to
6.16 per cent. The backing and
filling nature of the market dur
ing December was reflected in the
mci mai me average price per i
listed snare rose only 4 6 cents to
$57.38, as of January 2.
Amusement shares, with the
notable exception of Fox Film
which sagged close to its low,
were sent upward by bulls endea
voring to get a public following
on the theory that the industry is
depression proof. Radio Keith
was again in good demand. To
bacco shares were also bid un

close. .
Under the system adopted at the
boys" school, a large number of
the inmates have been paroled,
and in only a few cases have they
been returned to the institution.
The success of this parole system
probably is due to the fact that
good homes are found for the
boys, and they have personal su
pervision after their release.
A financial statement prepared
by the late Governor Patterson a
few days before his death showed
that the parole system at the
boys' school had been a complete
success, and that more than $40,
000 had been saved to the taxpay
ers during the past two years. 7"e
enrollment at the school also' was
reduced materially, with the re
sult that only three of the four
cottages are occupied at thie
time.
While Governor Norblad has
not yet had time to make a thor
ough study of the prison annex
proposal, he indicated that he
would favor such an intermediate
institution. Governor Norblad is
an attorney, and for several years
was prosecutor in the Clatsop
county district. This experience
brought him in close touch with
the criminal class, and gave him
an opportunity to study their
problems.
Govefnor Norblad announced
yesterday that he would hold a
conference with prison officials
within the next, few days, when,
the prison annex proposal would
be given consideration. In. case
the costs are not too great, it is
probable that the governor will
give the plan his approval.
Although the Oregon state pen
itentiary was constructed to han
dle a maximum of 550 prisoners,
the population now exceeds 82.5,
It has been necessary to asslen
two men to each cell, which offi
cials said is contrary to the best
interests of prison discipline.
With the completion of the
new administration building and
two-story garage late in February,
congested conditions in the main
prison will be relieved temporar
ily. Approximately 40 trusties
now housed in the main cell
blocks will be transferred to the
upper floor of the garage. A
smaller number of prisoners will
be transferred to quarters in the
administration building. 1
Further improvements, includ
ing the proposed prison annex, 1
probably would defer for many I
yeara the construction of a new
institution where the present pen
itentiary now stands.
Officials who have studied the
prison annex proposal, said th-.
plan would not only have a ten
dencv to imorove materiallv thr
morale of the prisoners, but
would result in a huge financial

AT M. E. MEETING
WEST SALEM, Jan. 20. Be
cause of the snow, the Salem dis
trict Methodist Men's council held
here Wednesday evening, had
a small attendance. Early Wed
nesday there was a serious con
sideration of postponing the meet
ing entirely, but difficulty in no
tifying the men in other places
made it necessary to go ahead.
Sixty men gathered at the church
to enjoy the meal prepared by
the Ladies' Aid and to enjoy the
program prepared by Secretary
Roy Lochenour.
The program consisted of com
munity singing led by Dr. Littler,
of Albany. Short talks by va
rious laymen, marimba music by
Miss Edith Findley, vocal solos
by R. A. Raymond, and an ad
dress on Mexico by Dr. P. A. Ma-gruder-
of Oregon State college.
Because of the storm. Dr. Pratt
of Portland, did not come.
Attendance by places was as
follows: West Salem, 26; Leslie
M. E. and First M. E., each 10;
Jason Lee, Mill street and Turner,
each three; and one each from Al
bany, Corvallis, Yamhill and Jef
ferson. The only car which came in

That cold may lead to something serious, if neglected.
The time to do something for it is nou.v Don t wait
until it develops into bronchitis. Take two or three
tablets of Bayer Aspirin as soon as you fl a cold
coining on. Or as soon as possible after it starts.
Bayer Aspirin will head off or relieve the aching and
feverisji feeling will stop the headache. And if your
throat is affected, dissolve two or three tablets in a
quarter-glassful of warm water, and gargle. This
-quickly soothes a sore throat and reduces liiflammation
and infection. . Read proven directions for neuralgia,
for rheumatism and other aches and pains. Genuine
Bayer Aspirin is harmless 4o the heart.
