PRESIDENT DECIDES
TO FAVOR FU
YEARNAYA
LL FIRST
PROGRAM
(By th Unite Press)
Washington. Junt A. The Presi
dent has decided thaKthe full first
year program advocated by the Na
vy General Board shoaM be adopted
by Congress. It includes four drtad-
naughta, tare . battle embers and
four scout cruisers, t
that a vacant lot or An alley thick
with grown-up weeds kserves to ac
cumulate all sorts oS rubbish and
filth, from tin cans to f ead cats, and
thus becomes a nuisaiibe. Further
more, they know that i is unsanitary
and, therefore, undesirable to have
in the neighborhood of even in the
town, as for that matter."
"A weed-covered lotlor alley be
comes a menace to hifelth chiefly
when it becomes a breeftng place for
flies. This is made pijsible when
garbage and filth are allowed to col
lect in such places. e
"Hay fever is a dislase that is
hard to cure, and barclw less hard to
prevent. It is believed Uo be caused
by the pollens of certai plants, such
as rag weed, golden rodyellow dock,
cocklehur, careless weeA and various
grasses. Experiments show that
the pollens of these plaits so irritate
the membranes of thehiose as to
bring on symptoms eg: cold which
persist throughout the Bollen season.
It is best prevented by Ifltterminating
weeds and grasses befoft the flower
ing season. This can begone by cit
ie.s and towns, as Asheille is doing
for her people, but the tyan is hard
ly practical for individuals alone
However, individuals ctfti go after
their town authorities &i both can
so co-operate as to get $d of weeds
and all the evils that aft attributed
to them." ;
