6 INSPECTION OF ALL MEAT URGED v federal Officer Addresses the " Meat Packers at Atlan tic City !, Washington, D. C., Sept. 16.—The stability of the live stock and meat Industries of this country depends on public confidence, and until the public ;has assurance that all Its meat is ,Wholesome the work of establish ing: public confidence will be Incom plete. At present about two-thirds Of the ment supply Is Federally in spected and stamped accordingly by ihe United States Department of Ag riculture, but until something effec tive is done toward insuring proper Inspection of the remaining one-third which is slaughtered and sold entirely within State boundaries and over which the National Government has no authority, the public, as a whole, can never feel certain that the purity and~wholesomeness of its entire meat supply Is assured. The statements were emphasised by Dr. John R. Mohler, chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry of the United States Department of Agricul. ture, in an address to-day before the American Meat Packers' Association In session in Atlantic City. The Bureau of Animal Industry, he said, has Just Completed a survey of municipal and State meat inspection. The data gath. ered show that less than one-third of the cities in the United States with a population of 5,000 or more maintain any kind of meat inspection. Where inspection is maintained it is fre quently Incomplete. Less than one fburth of the cities reported that ante, mortem examinations are made and in many, cases little assuranco was furnished that condemned moats were actually withheld from distribution. * Miners to Present Their Opinions on j Taxation of Mines Chicago, 111., Sept., 16.—Mine own ers and mining engineers from every section of the country will present } opinions to Government represents-1 tives on the taxation of mines at ~ the meeting of the American Insti i tute of Mining and Metallurgical Bn gineers which will be in session dur ! ing the week of September 22.

Points Out Legal Precedent For Mexico to Nationalize Lands ' Mexico City, Sept., 16.—Legal pre. cedent for the Republic of Mexico to * nationalize its lands which are now •. devoted to the production of petrol eum, Is claimed in a statement re cently furnished to the Associated Press by Leon Salinas, sub-secretary of the Department of Commerce and Industry which has this question In charge. Laws and statutes governing the development of coal and oil deposits date back to the days of the viceroys in Mexico, the statement says, and since that time there has been a series of decrees and laws that firmly establishes the rights of the republic in this regard. The question Is now in the hands of the Mexican Congress for revision with a view to adjudicating claims made by foreign companies with vast interests in Mexico. Plan to Increase Income of Churches New York, Sept. 16. —Changing the "clerk-church" into the "employer church" by the application of modern business principles to church manage ment Is the latest project of the Epls copal church in the United States. Toq many "clerk-churches" and too few ''employer-churches" are being shown, Episcopal leaders say, by the surveys of the needs and opportun ities of Episcopal dioceses throughout the country now being made for the executive committee of the Church's Nation-Wide Campaign. "Employer- churches," they believe, are essential not only to the success of the campaign to expand the church's work to meet reconstruction demands, but to establish the church as a force in the new world-order that Is now being built. The idea and its terminology or iginated with an lowa rector. Rev. Elmer Nelson Owen, of St. Paul's Church, Des Moines. Mr. Owen put It to the test of two years' application to St. Paul's parish, the largest in lowa. To-day St. Paul's Church has increased Its income 400 per cent. It has Increased Its influence upon the community life of Des Moines In pro portion. It has won the interest and approval of Des Moines financl-irs, judges, lawyers, business men. A "clerk- church," according to Mr. Owen's definition. Is a church that can not do more than pay Its bills. An "employer-church" js one that has a working capital above Its own ex penses, for participation In the life of the community. Lightning Struck Statue of Germania as Allies Advanced Strasbnrg, Sept., 16.—1t has become known only recently, that the huge statue of Germania. which stands In the public square here commemorat ing the victory of the Prussians In 1870 and the foundation of the empire of the Hohensollerns was shattered by lightning In August 1918, when tha Allied armies were driving the Germans before them along the West ern Front. The stroke of lightning now regarded as symbolic of the ap proaching fate of the German arjnies caused consternation among the sup erstitious Germans and their author ities here decreed that absolute sil ence be kept regarding it. No one was allowed to see the monument ex.' cept workmen who were at once em ployed to repair It. The lightning struck the sword which "Germania" brandishes toward Heaven. The Imperial Eagle was damaged and the Angel of War, which stands at the foot of the statue was wrecked. Despite the repairs, traces of the e.Sect of the thunder bolt still are visible.
