By ALFRED W. McCANN Tho Appearance of a Squad of Pro fessors at the National Capitol to Testify Tliat Milk Containing 48,- 000,000 Bacteria Per C. C. Was Good Milk Astonished the Entire Scientific World—lt Also Disclos ed the Desperation of Dealers in Liquid Filth Who Were Ready at Their Own Expense to Defend Any Individual, However Obscure, Who Might Be Prosecuted for Selling Contaminated Milk. Scarcely a week had passed follow ing Governor Glynn's discovery that his milk commission was engaged in an unholy purpose when its members appeared at Washington to defend a dealer accused selling milk with a bacteria count of 48,000,000 per cubic centermeter, thereby vindicat ing the wisdom of the Governor in destroying the body which he had created. The dirty milk crowd in the Wash ington case came out in the open in a last desperate effort to overthrow every possible standard of decency in the handling and selling of their pro duct to consumers. In ail civilized countries clean milk is regarded as vital to public health. The fight for it, prior to the famous Washington case, had been mainly against sluggish ignorance. Governor Glynn's conscientious handling of the situation inspired dirty milk to send rorth aggressive champions. The extremes to which these men were willing to go is shown in the subjoined account of their first de termined effort to establish a prece dent, the avowed purpose of which was to break down all hitherto ac cepted standards of milk decency and safety: "I do not call any milk containingl 48,000,000 bacteria per c. c., regard icrry OH. the Job #f Copyright, 1916, International News Service * m • HobciTX —\ / GoSfc-BERuoER- / Vou Sfeß--MV ~ ] \ TKZ^ST- / /.

"Bacteriological counts have little or no value for public health improve ment. I consider Boston's limit of 500,000 ridiculous, and would consid er a 1,000,000 limit in New York ridiculous; 48,000,000 bacteria in milk is not excessive. "Any milk is legally salable in New York unless chemically adulterated. for many milk dealers in New York, and am supervising the new water supply for the city of New York. I have refused to draw conclu sions from the presence of B. soli in that water." Such was the testimony of Dr. Her bert D. Pease of the Lederle Labora tories at the trial of John W. Gregg. Although Gregg's place of business in Washington was comparatively re mote from New York, his case was looked upon by public health officials all over the country as not only of importance to the people of New York City, but to the people of every State in the Union, as we shall see. The defense of Gregg was financed by the 4amo association of milk deal ers who had fought so desperately to defeat all federal and State efforts to establish standards of milk purity for the entire country. Beaten at Colorado Springs Sep tember, 1913, when the International Milk Dealers' Association unanimous ly adopted the clean milk standards of the National Commission, the dirty milkmen, as we have seen, did not hesitate to force the State of New York against the cause of clean milk by Inducing Governor Glynn to ap point a commission backed in the in terest of unclean milk. Their appearance in Washington where they hoped to secure in the Gregg case a vindication of dirty milk which would serve the United States,' proved astonishingly successful until March 18, 1914. Fortunately through the alertness of Dr. S. S. Goldwater, commissioner of health of New York City, a hint of what was going on was obtained. The New York Milk Committee dis patched Dr. Charles E. North, sec retary of the National Commission on Milk Standards, to the scene at once. X accompanied him. His pres ence in the courtroom stampeded the Gregg defense. A juryman was "suddenly" taken ill, and although the health officials at Washington were willing to con tinue the trial with eleven jurymen, the milk men, on account of the in terjection of Dr. North into the situa tion, refused to go on. When Gregg was arrested by the Washington authorities for selling filthy and decomposed milk with a bacteria count of 48,000,000, which is 480 times the maximum number permitted, it was decided to conduct his prosecution under the federal act in order to make the issue national in its scope. Recognizing the manner in which a victory by the government would up set the milk industry of the nation, the leaders In the fight for dirty milk determined to still further demoral ize the pure food law and break down all standards of milk decency, throw ing the doors wide open to an un regulated traffic In liquid filth. Hence, at the expense of the dirty milk furid, the following experts were carted to Washington to testify to the virtues of milk .containing 4 8,- 000,000 bacteria per c. c.: Dr. Lee H. Maynard, private bac teriologist for Philadelphia milk dealers. Samuel T. Prescott, professor in Massachusetts Institute of Technol ogy, who worked on the side for Bos ton milk dealers. P. G. Heinemann, professor in Uni versity-of Chicago. John Gordon, professor In employ of milk dealers. Dr. John A. O'Donoghue, bacteri ologist in Georgetown Hospital. Dr. John D. Hird, professor in Georgetown University, who worked on the side for milk dealers. Dr. Herbert D. Pease, bacteriologist HARRISBURG l/S&Bg TELEGRAPH in the employ of the enemies of milk containing low scoree of bacteria, and chief engineer of many plans to pre vent. milk legislation. Walter Jeffries Carlln, attorney for the National Ice Cream D'ealers' As sociation. These experts filled the minds of the lay jury with such astonishing ideas that they are about to be re ported here in oraer to show just how far bacteria standards are op posed by the milk industry. From the court stenographer's rec ord of the trial the following excerpt indicates the character of the milk out of which the now famous Gregg case grew: Testimony for the prosecution: "We found Gregg's milk to contain: 48,000.000 bacteria per c. c. 21.000 B. coli per c. c. 10,000 fermenting organisms per c. c. 100 streptococci per c. c. "B. coli are the organisms found In the intestines of all warm-blooded animals. "Streptococci are the organisms found in the pus discharges of ulcer ated tissues. Streptococci have been proved to be the cause of septic sore throat, tonsilitis, and a host of sec ondary inflammations." We shall now see how the experts treated these facts, so that we may obtain some adequate appreciation of the necessity of looking upon milk for what it is, friend or foe. THE CHILD AM) THE BIBLE There are some people who main tain that a child should be stuffed with ill the passages he can possibly learn. You have heard of parents—here It is often the father who is at fault—who compel their children to learn verse after verse from the Bible. I do not depreciate the value of some memory passages, but lessons should be as signed with discretion. Some parents cram a poor youngster with a lot of Scripture that the child cannot under stand. I have heard children quote verse upon verse about sin and tts con sequences who had no conception of the nature of sin. Why bhould we load meaningless stuff into the child mind when there is an abundance of really beautiful and comprehensible material in the Bible? for Instance, part of Christ's talks and His parables and the wonder of His work will fascinate any child. Some of the Psalms and child stories of the Old Testament delight growing • boys and girls. They understand what they are learning and at the same time seek to know more about their ' fa\orite characters. Even adults do ; not like all the Bible equally well. Some parts they do not even under stand. Now how would you enjoy memorizing the meaningless passages? What good would they do to you? A . child worships heroes whether in the . Bible or in history. You have a won derful opportunity to lead your son or . your daughter into the parts of the Bible a child can enjoy. Wise guid ance will inevitably result in aroused curiosity and a desire to learn of the lives of biblical heroes. The memory verses you wisely choose will be real , treasures to your child and will always be among the pleasantest memories of Mother and the hours spent with her. —Herbert F. Mayer, In the October Mother's Magazine. i The Jack of Diamonds Means More to Him Than Life Itself A pal of Ring W. Lardner, news paper correspondent, editor, and au thor of "You Know Me Al" (the busher baseball stories which ap peared originally In the Post, and are now published in book form by the George H. Doran Company), relates the following anecdote apropos of Lardner's Interest in cards: In company with a group of famous Yale athletes, Lardner was on his way from New Haven to New York and deep in a game of pinochle when the New Haven pulled off one of its characteristic wrecks. Amidst hissing steam, shattered glass and the cries of women and children, the athletes sought egress though the nearest win dows. After half an hour or more of strenuous work with the injured, the group assembled, only to find Lard ner missing. Back they went to the Pullman, Bomeisler, the famous Yale end, muttering repeatedly, "Where the devil can he be? Where the devil can he be?" A voice suddenly answered from the SEPTEMBER 15, 1916. 1 ' | : .

Howe's Monthly.] Hudson Maxim, In his book, "De fenseless America," says modern ma chinery for human destruction has re sulted not in shorter wars, but In longer conflicts, fewer deaths and vastly greater expense. When men fought hand to hand In compact form, with short swords, spears and battls axes, there was usually one great en gagement, and that settled it; easily ten times as many were slain In an old-time battle, number of men con sidered. as at present. If men must go to war, why prolong it, and greatly Increase the expense? Why not get a decision as quickly as possible, and let the soldiers return to their neglected homes? Why commit the suffering 1 and devastation to con tinue for years when months would suffice? At present it costs $15,000 to kill & man In war, as against $2.50 in the time of Hannibal. This difference Is too much tribute to pay science and modernism. The Price & Teeple Automatic Musio Traking Device keeps the music in perfect track.
