ROCHESTER, N. Y., Sept 9. Vari
ouh alarms were sounded today by the
bpcakerx before the annual session of
the American Public Health Associa
tion, attended by public health officers
and medical men from all parts of the
United States. Probably the most start
ling statistics presented were those of
fered by E. E. Rittenhpuse of New
York on "Increasing Organic Disease,"
which, bo declared. Is the new public
j health problem
"The Increasing waste of American
vitality-and life from the degenerative
disease asaoag waajai earners ad eUs-
,or classes is rapidly reaching the mag
I nltudo of a national menace," said Dr.
Rlttenhouse. "Surely the doubling of
jthc mortality rate from this cause
I nhould be a matter of serious public
concern.
"In threo decodes the death, rate
from the breaking down or wearing out
of the heart, arteries and kidneys bas
Increased 100 per cent In the period
from 1900 to 1910 the Increase has
been oh. high as 38 per cent in some
states, and no less than 17 per cent In
every state. In the preceding ten
years the increase was 52 per cent
among tho more than 4,000,000 men in
mechanical industries and in the labor
ing, servant and agricultural classes
combined."
The condition described, said Dr.
Rlttenhouse, Is local to America, not
being found in European countries.
"There are constantly approximately
1.1,000,000 Americana In the 'develop
ment period,' " said the speaker. "This
period ranges from a few weeks to sev
eral years In which the disease may be
checked or cured. Most of these peo
ple are drifting Into disease unknow
ingly. They are uninformed, unwarn
ed. If tbe state can afford to fight
germ diseases, why not degenerative
disease? If It can teach community
hygenie to check one, why not Indi
vidual hygiene to check the other. Ac
tion is needed." ' '
Dr. Eugene Lyman Flak of New York
said that in 191S. 139.900 persona died
of chronic disease of the vital machin
eryall preventable, or postponable.
The figures reflect widespread degen
eration, impairment and premature de
cay, be said. He recemmended: (1)
Avoidance of physical or mental over
strain (3) moderation In eating, espe
cially of meat (3) avoidance of stim
ulating, highly seasoned food; (4) ab
btinence from alcohol and tobacce: (6)
tegular exercises within the Individ
ual's limits.
The public utilities commission of
the state will make a personal visit to
this city, following the hearing" to be
held at Salem Monday, September 13,
on tbe complaint filed by tho city of
Klamath Falls against the light and
water company to look the local situa
tion over and investigate the charges,
according to a communication received
by Rollo C. Oroesbeck, city attorney
The visit here will be made in order
' to bear at first hand the complaints of
local people who have registered them
with the city officials against tbe California-Oregon
Power company. At the
time of their visit any persons who
hae complaints to make against tbe
corhpany in the matter of discrimina
tions in rates, oer charges or other
matters will be given an opportunity to
appear before the commission.
Mr. Oroesbeck will be in Salem to
attend the hearing, which is to be held
Jointly for a number of cities in South
ern Oregon, Including Medford and
Grants Pass, in order to cut down the
expense of holding separate hearings
over tbe state. Similar complaints
were Sled with the commission by the
other towns as did this city.

The three negroes who confessed to
having killed Dr. Mohr, but who have
denied it now. A new turn in the case
bas been taken, ai they now refuse to
talk, and It is believed that htgb soci
ety folk fear the presence of Mrs,
Mohr on tbe stand. They are afraid
that old family skeletons may ho
brought to light, as Dr. Mohr waa the
family physician of many of the oldest
families in the state. The negroes any
