AM MARTIN Who recalls when a flrl eould hardly wait till she got married she could some biscuits? Ever'thing comes him what waits, fc but th result of an investigation. THE EMPORIA GAZETTE TEN PAGES Kansas Health Board Declares Open Warfare Give Scathing Reply To State Dairy Head; Cite Long-Time Fight Over Milk Control Topeka, Oct. 24 The Kansas state board of health today declared open warfare on Harry E. Dodge, state dairy commissioner, in a scathing reply to his state- Tuesday that the board's investigation of the Great Bend enteritis epidemic placed "unjustified emphasis" on milk. In written statement, Evan Wright, director of the food and drug division of the state board of health, said, "It appears that thing so patently involved in the of over 400 of our citizens Wand indirectly the death of eight of our babies cannot be emphasized.

too much." He cited a long-time fight between the board of health and the state dairy commissioner over milk control. "For over six years," he declared, "the.state board of health and the state board of agriculture have been at cross purposes on the question of milk control. This has for the most been covered and kept from Wche public for the sake of policy. "It is obvious that periodic outbreaks of hostilities and subsequent hatchet buryings have brought the problem no closer to solution. Now it appears that the public must be apprised of the facts." "The present incumbent in the dairy commissiorer's office has refused to admit any importance to the public health of milk control although the law establishing his office is predicated on the public's "welfare.

Opposed Milk Ordinance "He has consistently and unsuc- csssfuily opposed the adoption of the standard milk ordinance advocated by the board of health. He has opposed pasteurization. He has refused to admit the established relation of Bang's disease in cattle to unduiant fever in humans." Wright continued that the state dairy law was sufficiently strong to an active and effective milk control program but that the commissioner never has used his au- thcrity for' thaTpufpo'se. "The only milk control program in the state which has produced any good results," he stated, "has been the advocation of the standard milk ordinance and the advice and aid in its enforcement of the board of health. "At present, over 80 per cent of the urban population of the state 0is located in cities having the standard ordinance or ordinances patterned after it.

Only one first class city iri the state does not have such an ordinance." The state dairy law. he said, Instructs the commissioner to "inspect, or cause to be inspected, all dairies of the state." "The dairy commissioner," however," Wright asserted, "during the past few years has set up a system of exacting tribute from communi- 0ties desiring inspection of their milk supplies. Pay for Inspection "Rather than complying with the intent of the law and inspecting dairies from the state level, agreements are made to furnish communities with inspection service at the rate of $12.50 per man day. A number of communities in Kansas are paying for services which a-e required to be "given without charge. If the dairy law were ad- as it is written there would be no need for city inspection." Reviewing the dairy commissioner's statement of Tuesday- Wright said Commissioner Dodge's objections to the report of the board of health relative to the diarrhea epidemic in Great Bend contained statements which have "so little background hi fact that the public should be advised of the true situation." 9 "The board of health." he said had as its view in investigating the death of a number of babies a Great Bend hospital only one aim- to discover the cause and prevent further deaths." In the investigation, Wrighfc said many unsatisfactory conditions were round In the basic communitv sanitation programs but none held an unbroken chain of evidence as did the mfllc supply.

"First." tfie statement said, "an organism known to cause the disease was isolated from the stools or ill children and adults among the more than 400 cases found and from the autopsy specimens from some of the dead infants. "This organism is not found in the intestinal tract of healthy adults or infants. The disease enters the body only through ths mouth in food or water."

No Serious Milk Crisis in Emporio But Dairymen Check Supply Report Not Verified The milk situation at Great Bend, where the death of several babies has been attributed to the milk supply, has created considerable discussion in Emporia where relatively high bacteria counts have been reported by health officials. As a result the rumor-mills are running full blast and dairymen are parents, Mr. and the present amended city milk ordinance." Laboratory analysis of Emporia milk for October ts being made. Early next month The Gazette expects to print a table giving a more complete picture of the laboratory analysis of milk here, than is revealed by the bacteria count alone.

Tentative Plans Call for End of Shoe Rationing Lift Restrictions on Sunday or Nov. 1 Cut Butter Points; More Tires in Sight Washing-ton, Oct. 24 Tentative plans call for an end of shoe rationing either October 28 or November 1, it was learned today. Government officials also have considered the possibility of terminating the program earlier if these plans became generally known. These are other developments and prospects bn the rationing front: 1.

OPA has decided to cut butter ration values from 12 points pound to eight, this Thursday. It will announce Death Is Confirmed S-Sgt. George Monroe. 20, who previously was reported missing iri action since September 27, 1944, was killed in action on or near i that date, according to a War deny his reported to be checking closely into supply sources and facilities. One report which has gained wide circulation here is to the effect that Emporia schools have stopped serv- i ing milk to pupils and faculty patrons of the cafeteria at the Lowther Junior High school.

Inquiries made by The Gazette concerning the school cafeteria milk service received no direct sub- stantiatiQn from, milk inspection, authorities or school officials that, the service had been suspended of insanitary conditions. 'Milk Served Part-lime W. M. Richards said that milk is being served part-time at the cafeteria but that because uf the current shortage milk is not being secured for use at the kindergartens. Charles Geniz, Emporia milk inspector, said he had investigated that milk in dirty being served at the a complaint bottles was cafeteria.

Subsequently, the milk inspector indicated, a different milk source was sought, but another dairy was not eager for new business because of the shortage. Under the federal subsidy plan for school lunches, milk is required for i a Grade A lunch for which a higher of the 100 block on Weaver street. Sergeant Monroe was born in Eureka December 31, 1B23, and came to Emporia with his parents in 1929. He attended Emporia grade schools and Lowther Junior High school and was a senior in Emporia Senior High school xvhen he entered active service. When he was 17 years old he joined the National Guards and left Emporia with Company in January, 1941.

He was trained at Camp Robinson, Ark Fort Ord, and in Alabamk acd Tennessee. In May, 1943, he was sent to the European theater. 2. Passenger tire rationing may be ended late in December. 3.

Truck tires are slated to come off the list by late November. Choice of a date for ending shoe rationing is expected to be made today or Thursday by OPA and War Production board officials. "At this time," said one official who asked anonymity, "discussions definitely have boiled down to picking one of two dates. This could change, but it doesn't seem likelv." October Sunday is advocated by those who feel that termination of the program over the weekend would give dealers a. chance to get ready for unrationed buying.

Those who favor November 1 believe it would be a good idea to wind up the program at the start of a calendar month. In either case, present plans call for no announcement until the eve of the effective date. The decision to scrap the program ts based on official estimates that shoe production now is close to COD.OOO pairs a month, the goal as the end of the shortage. It has climbed to this from n. of around 23.000.000 a month nt the enri of September.

THE WORi.D TODAY Russia Puslies Altead With Phuis By BeWilt AP Foreign Affairs Analyst There's this to be said of Russia, and we shall be smart to note it well: When the Muscovites have determined on a major objective, they drive head-on for it. That characteristic is illustrated in the Soviet action in proposing to conclude unilateral trade pacts vlth the Axis satellites Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria a move which Britain and the United States have protested as violating the spirit of the Yalta agreement for con-, certed policies among the Bip Three.

Sought to Avoid Publicity The government had not planned to announce the execution for three or four days to avoid publicity and public curiosity. However, one Oslo morning newspaper learned of Quisling's death in time to catch its last edition with a brief sentence that he was executed. The story brought forth a ministry of justice com- munique some seven hours later. The body presumably will be turned over to relatives for burial in Quisling's native province of Telemark.
