I election and inauguration. Advocating Hint tin- .Into of o presidential election and inaugu ration be brought closer than November of one year and Marth of the following year, the officers of the American Bar Association have recommended thai a change be made as suggested, and an .-ast-ern paper, commenting on tin- subject, says The ailininistratn.il of a president who, near the end of his tirst term is defeated t"r a s nd is discredited as having received a vote i wanl of confidence. During its final four months, of urse. such an administration carries no prestige either .ii horn abroad And in the final four months of auj administration, particularly if it is to be succeeded by one of different political pnnViplcs and poli cii , there is n lack of initiative in government which, in easily conceivable circumstances, might not only embar rassing but positively dangerous. For instanee, in the period between McKiniey'a election and his inauguration the Cuban question might have devel: oped n demand for immediate action which it would have greatb embarrassed Presidcnl ( 'leveland t tak. Again, this historic example of the opportunities to prepare for se cession of the slaw state; which were aeeordc ! by disloyal federal offi.-m's under Imciui nan in the four months fol lowing the election of Lincoln stands as a convincing proof of the evil of the nation's broad twilight zone in govern ment In matters of importance to the nation no retiring pres- , ident would care to initiate polii ies which he did not expect his successor to carry oul or i saddle an incoming adfflin afnatinri with the eonseouenees of policies it W()Uld not have I chosen for itself The result, therefore, is a period of almost complete governmental inactivity. The dates of the president's election and inauguration were determined original!) by congress to suit the necessi ties of that time Tin- date of the inauguration has since been fixed by an amendment to the constitution It can be changed, therefore only in the same way. The date of the election could be changed more easily and there are many strong reasons why it should be changed. CAREFUL MILK TESTS Sot important is the supervision of the milk supplies of large cities that great care is exercised in the work an.! organizations arc formed the sole object of which is to prescribe rules, enforce the same and require tests Lately the 'New York Milk Committee'' has offered to fur aish Ogden with speakers and literature to promote legislation rela tive to milk and milk products At the suggestion of the National Commission on Milk Stand ards, the New York Milk Committee has organized a service bureau as an aid to those cities in need of better official control of their milk supplies. In the earlier campaign for pure milk, it soon was apparent that the chief obstacle in the waj ol securing a clean ami safe milk sup ply for New York, as v. ell as other American cities, was the fact that public health offiicals and other authorities ere not agreed as to standards of purii foi milk. To meet this need, the New York Milk Committee organized in 1911 and has since financed, a na tional commission on milk standard) i insisting of J of the leading authorities in the United States and Canada on public health ami aiilk sanitation The members of this commission were carefully se lected as to the include chemists, bacteriologists, health officers and agricultural experts who would represent different parts of the coun rv and would also be recognized .is leading authorities in their lines Through the meetings of this commission, unanimous reports and recommendations have been obtained These have been pub lished at various times by the United States Public Health Service itnd furnished to American cities for th first time a basis for un form standards and grades for milk. The chief features of the work of this commission have been ps follows : A standard time and temperature for the pasteurization ol milk. The recommendation that all milk be pasteurized excepting milk corresponding to certified milk in characti r That milk be traded into at lensl three trades: A, B and C no I cording to its sanitary hara ter mid that each grade he distin ! H guished by its own Label on the final container. That the most important method for determining the sanitary j character of milk is the examination for the number of bacteria bj ii stadanrd methods, mmmj ; I A SAVAGE DEMAND. A Salt Lake paper, after the announcement had been made I of Mayor Bock's confession oi guilt, neeompanied by a state-' I ment of restitution and reparation, urged that the former mayor be relentlessly pursued to the end The old Mosaic demand w as pleaded, of an eye for an eye and ; a tooth for a tooth , Civilization is getting awaj from the ancient idea of vengeance.' I Which found its highest enforcement in the rack, when transgressors: were tortured to death No petty offender was ever so severely punished, no wrong-doer! I 60 crushed with shame as is the deposed mayor. The ordinary violator of the law can escape to where no one pursueth, but one who has been so bighlj honored must face ob j loquy wherever he goes, now and in the years to come His family is j humiliated beyond measure What more is wanted by way of pun-1 ishmcnt or warning to others rwh- might be tempted? Would you have a pound of flesii, or would ou pluck out the heart, the strings to which have been sundered? I In the old days the Indians delighted in binding a victim to a stake and torturing him. That was savage pleasirre which came from seeing a human being writhe in agon;.. Have we some of that same savagery still within us? PLAYING THE GAME. I When Resolute crossed the line ahead of Shamrock IV, Sir jl Thomas Lipton was first to cheer.

J It is ingrained in the Anglo-Saxon race to demand a fair field ,1 with no favorites, and the English speaking people even insist on 1 certain rules of humane conduct on the field of battle.

"The employes on the construction work in this city prior to May 10, 1920. did not strike, as they walked out for no cause whatsoever. This they have admitted When work was resumed in June it was under the 'American plan,' which gives every man the privi lege to work, whether affiliated with organized labor or not PICKETS ON JOB Organized labor has pickets on all jobs, which, in its view, means a strike is in progress. Inasmuch as some Jobs have started since the walk out in May and some Jobs are being picketed where union men were never employed, we ask How- can a strike bi declared on these plates?' We feel that we are -entitled to an epmlnn on what constitutes B strike, as well as organized labor, inasmuch as the union men walked out without any cause whatsoever, wo can see no reason for a strike being declared " The commislson, through Mr. Knerr, replied, quoting as its opinion of what ;i sirike is ine (leimiuon given in jthe Encyclopedia Britannica, which makes no dlstinct.on between a Btrlke and a walkout QUESTION OF BLISTER CAUSES DISCUSSION SALT LAKE, July 24.
