THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON
BULLETIN GIVES
SUGGESTIONS IN
CARE OF INFANT
Long before the baby's arrival the
mother should be Impressed with
the imnnrtance of breast feeding.
Statistics show that the breast-fed
baby Is, In general, far more uiceiy
to live through the first critical
year than is the bottle-fed baby.
Every mother's mind should be fully
made up that she will nurse her
baby unless the doctor himself finds
some Insuperable reason to the con
trary. The best and most experienc
ed doctors believe that almost all
mothea can nurse their hjbies. at
least for a time. If the proper effort
is made and they rarely advise art
ificial feeding except for grave med
ical reasons. Breast feeding Is much
safer for the baby; it is much less
trouble for the mother and more
economical, says a bulletin by the
state board of health.
Aithounh breast feeding Is Impor
tant for the baby at all seasons of
the year, every mother win realize
at once that it is doubly so in sum
mer. Many of the characteristics of
the summer season heat, flies, dust
etc tend to make artificial feeding
a nightmare for the conscientious
mother.
Young babies, especially during
the warm weather, are particularly
susceptible to digestive upsets and
to diarrheal diseases. It is much
easier to prevent these than to cure
them. Clean cow's milk la the next
best substitute for mother's milk. It
should be boiled for two or three
minutes, then cooled before feed
ing it to the baby.
When cow's milk of good quality
can not be obtained unsweetened or
evaporated condensed milk diluted
with water makes a satisfactory sub
stitute. The sweetened condensed
milk Is not recommended. Babies fed
on it exclusively are fat, often look
well, but have no resistance to dis
ease. Babies should be carefully pro
tected from contact with other chil
dren and older persons in the fam
ily who are suffering with diarrhea.
House flies frequently carry the
germs that cause diarrheal diseases,
from out-houses, to the baby's food
or to the baby's hands, face and
bady. Houses should be screened in
the summer and flies should be
kept away from the baby, its food
and clothing. The baby and young
child should be dressed according
to the temperature and not accord
ing to the season. Babies should
rarely bo fed more often than every
three hours. There is leas risk, esp
ecially In hot weather. If they are
fed at four-hour Intervals that It,
five or at most six times In the
twenty-four hours. Cooled boiled
water should be offered to the baby
between feedings in hot weather.
The baby should have a room to
himself. It should be clean, well
ventilated and free from unnecess
ary hangings and furniture. Sun
light and fresh air are indispen
sable for the baby. The only safe
procedure In raising babies Is to
consult a well-qualified physician
iut aavice.
ISAM FREED TO
ATTEND FUNERAL
Tragedy, which for some time has
been stalking the Theodore Isaak
family of Woodburn, struck hard
during the week-end, and Isaak,
who has been in Jail, was released to
attend the funeral of his wife, which
win be held Tuesday.
Mrs. Isaak had been suffering
from tuberculosis. There was trouble
in the family, and a charge of non
support of the wife and their child
was filed In Justics court against
Isaak. He was taken to Jail. He
was to appear in court Monday,
but death halted the ease.
The mother of Mrs. Isaak appear
ed before Jrjstice of the Peace Hay
den Monday. She was to be a wit
ness. She Informed the court that
her daughter had died Sunday
night and that she didn't want to
appear in court lust now. Isaak's
request that he be freed to attend
the funeral was granted.
GRAIN INSPECTION
RATE REDUCED
A reduction of $1 a carload In
the cost of grain Inspection by the
federal government, was announced
nere Monday by Ma-: Oehlhar, di
rector of agriculture. Grain la in
spected at Portland, and the re
duction of from S3 .50 to $2.50 a car-
load will mean a saving to the state
of about 11,000 a year, it was an
nounced. Warnings Enough in
Labor Complaints
Not once during the last biennium
did the state bureau of labor re
sort to prosecution to settle em
ployment complaints
The most. common cause for com
plaint was from restaurant and
housekeepers employing women In
excess of 48 hours a week.
"A representative of our bureau
investigated each complaint, told
the offenders they must comply
with the law in the future, or they
would be prosecuted," State Labor
Commissioner C. H. Oram said.
Not once In two years, did w
have to resort to prosecution.''
FALSE ALARM

chant named Andersson. She

CHAMBER TO BACK
MOVE TO SALEM
The resolution adopted by the
state highway commission recently
to hold Its meeting In Salem In
stead of In Portland will be taken
up by the directors of the Salem
Chamber of Commerce at a meet

oi figures to be submitted by Sena-
tor Charles K. Spaulding who, as
a member of the state highway
commission, was Instrumental - In

The Portland Chamber of Com
merce and the Portland East Side

its meetings in that city.
Portland Interests also have pro
tested against the removal of the

TOO MANY LAWS
SAYS HOLM AN
TO CHAMBER
The old adage that the country
la best governed which Is least
governed served as a text for a
part of the address given before
the Salem chamber of commerce
Monday noon by State Treasurer
Ruf us C. Holman. He declared
that the country has too many
laws, and that there Is a tendency
to compel by law certain things
that should be done by the people
as a matter of morals. It Is time,
said Mr. Holman, t repeal some of
the laws of the land.
His thought relative to the evil
of too many laws Holman applied
to laws which, he said, guarantee
to some persons a profit on their
business at the expense of other
persons and regardless of circum
stances. There are certain legiti
mate reasons, he said, why some
people accumulate more than oth
ers, but he declared that this does
not account for the centering of
the nation's wealth In a few hands
or the fact that 75 per cent of the
wealth of Multnomah county la in
the hands of 1.3 per cent of Its
people.
Holman said that since becom
ing a state official he had become
impressed with the complications
of state government, and he had a
great deal to say. about the prob
lems offered by the state institu
tions.' The financial problems con
nected with them, he though, were
minor compared with some of the
other problems,
"We have," he said, "18 state In
stitutions housing over 6000 In
mates, and I don't think any one
man ever will master all of their
problems, because they cover the
whole range of problems that con
front the human family."
Relative to the state institution
for the feeble-minded he suggest
ed that the chamber of commerce
appoint a special committee to
study Its 'relation to society. He
suggested that some of the higher
types of Inmates might be paroled
with a saving of possibly 840,000 a
year to the state. The solution of
the problem of state wards, he
said, said, did not lie In the con
struction of more buildings to
house them. He mentioned the
state training school for boys and
complaints that reach the state
board about It, and declared that
he often wondered how the state
could get people to take charge of
the various institutions.
"In these remarks," he said, "I
am not criticising those who have
preceded us in the state offices. It
is only reasonable to believe that
we should do better than our pre
decessors and that those who come
after us should improve on our
work.
Holman mentioned several Items
under the head of taxation where
by money could be saved the state.
He mentioned the advisory board
appointed by htm to study the
question of buying paper for state
use and said the committee had in
formed him that 40 per cent of the
cost could be saved- He thought
money could be saved by the con
solidation of the state's' printing
plants without curtailing efficien
cy, and that all state buying should
actually be in the hands of one
office. He mentioned several items
that came before the state board at
Monday's meeting in which he
claimed a saving of money.
BREACH OF MEIER
AND HOSS WIDENS
(Continued from page I)
of the board in the 10-day absence
ot tne executive wnen, moss declar
ed, Holman had agreed to the ne
cessity of the vault, for which the
legislature had appropriated 635.
000 In a bill signed by the governor.
Employment of Bartholemew had.
likewise, been approved by the
board when the governor was pres
ent. When tha architect's partial bill
for services to date was presented
Monday morning Governor Meier
Immediately moved that he be paid
lor nis services In full and dis
charged, explaining In the course
of the discussion that his action
meant "there will be no vault built.'
In explanation of his motion the
executive said that to proceed
with construction would be "boys'
play In view of the proposed new
capitol building," which he said
Senator McNary had assured him
was a likely project
Hoes objected, asserting that
there was little prospect of secur
ing a new capitol building In less
than 30 years and protesting that
in the meanwhile all of the state's
records are In danger ot destruc
tion by fire. But Holman joined
with the governor and the motion
prevailed.
Holman denied that he had ever
agreed with Hoss In ordering the
construction when Hoss asked him
specifically If he had not so
agreed In the absence of the gov
ernor. Holman said that he had
only agreed to receive bids on the
work for consideration.
The controversy, which followed
closely upon Governor Meier's
learning of Hoss' refusal to Issue
special license numbers for the ex
ecutive's private automobiles, was
followed a few moments later by
another clash precipitated by
Meier.
Purchase of a filing system for
indexing the cards of automobile
owners In the Ucens) bureau of the
secretary's office was up for pre
liminary discussion when the gov
ernor suddenly Interrupted to crit
icize Hoss for what he alleged to
be excessive costs In the distribu
tion of license plates.
"It costs the state of Oregon more
for Issuing license plates than any
other state In the union," Governor
Meier declared.
"I want to state right here that
you are absolutely wrong," Ross
sbot back.
"Well, I'm making an Investiga
tion of this thing and will have a
report to make to this board so
you can judge If I am right
wrong."
"Why report H to this board it's
none of the board's business," replied
"I want the board and the pub
lic to know about it." said Meier
"Will you admit It If you are
wrong?" Hoss asked.
"I usually do," was the governor's
retort.
The executive's declaration of his
Intention to pry Into the affairs of
the secretary's office Is his second
maneuver in that direction, his first
being the public statement criticiz
ing the cost of Janitor service for the
state buildings and the assertion
that 822,000 a biennium could be
saved by contracting the work out
to a Janitor service company. When
analized by public accountants the
offer ot the Janitor service company
recommended by the governor ac
tually showed that the cost of per
forming the work now being done
would be more than Is now being
paid oy hoss.

YOUTH TO DECIDE
CHOICE OF PARENT
Formal divorce aecrea handed
down by Judge McMahan In the
proceedings of Ransom W. NUes
against Ethel Jane NUes shows
that the court In this case did not
set Itself up as a Solomon to de
termine who should have custody
of a minor son but decided it would
be better to let the son make his
own choosing in event the wife re
marries.
The custody of the child goes to
the father until that time. But It
was agreed between the parents
and approved by the court that at
any time the defendant wife re
marries then the son shall say with
whom he prefers to live, the mother
or the father.
Decree of divorce was granted on
grounds of desertion. The couple
were married in Columbus, Nebras
ka, In September, 1916.

NORMALS LACK
MONEY TO BE
STANDARDIZED
Portland MV-More money must
be available for additional build
ings, equipment and salaries for the
faculty before the normal schools of
Oregon can meet the standardiza
tion requirements of the American
Association of Teachers' colleges, the
state board of education was told
Monday. The board was meeting at
Portland.
It was explained that the three
schools at Monmouth, La Grande
and Ashland are well up In the line
as far as general requirements de
manded from an educational or In
struction standard are considered,
but are lacking In equipment, build
ings and In some faculty personnel
demands.
This shortage must be overcome.
It was said, before these Institutions
can be admitted to membership In
tne association.
At a previous meeting of tha
board the presidents of the normal
schools were directed to prepare
uniform course of study so far aa
curricula requirements of the basic
subjects were concerned, and to re
port on what would be required for
the schools to obtain membership In
the American-association.
President J. 8. Landers of Mon
mouth said that while that school
met nine of the 13 listed require
ments, It failed In the matter of dor-,
mitory equipment, library building
and books, and in regard to training
school provisions for teacher train
ing work. This lack could be met
only by additional money, Landers
said.
President H. E. Inlow of La
Grande said his school does not have
sufficient teacher training facilities,
the physical education plant Is not
large enough, a dormitory is lacking
and added books and more space for
the library and laboratories are
needed. It would require $10,000 for
equipment of the library alone, he
said, to bring the school up to the
association requirements.
President J. A. Churchill of Ash
land said his Institution would be re
quired to have an- auditorium for
teacher training classes and work.
a gymnasium, library and dormitory
beiore it could meet the demands
of standardization. This would re
quire an undetermined amount of
money.
The board adopted, as presented
by the school heads, an outline for
an uniform curriculum. It was ex
plained this does not change the
general foundation requirements
which have been observed In the
past, although it meets the instruc
tion of the board at a former meet
ing that certain courses heretofore
given at Monmouth be eliminated,
