B 4 Typhoid fever decreased during B the year and the diphtheria death ra'e B tor the year 'was the lowest ever i"B corded. This general downward trend B in diphtheria is undoubtedly the reB suit of the increasing general use of B antitoxin and toxin-antitoxin immtiniB zation. B Smallpox decreased during the year ■ lu most sections of this country the 9 disease was of a mild type. This dem- ■ nnstrates the protective value of vacci9 nation and the Public Health Service 9 report says that it is difficult to explain why this simple preventative measure is net universally employed. 6. No case of cholera, yellow fever or bubonic plague gained entrance to this country during the year. This alone is wot th millions of d liars to American citizens. 7. Infant mortality is on the de-

crease. , • 8. The most Unpleasant news contained ill the bulletin is-Jdxe iviwt of the large number of deaths from re--piratory diseases which increased the general death late in this country front 11.7 to 12.1 for each one hundred thousand population. The death rate* from this type of disease can only be cut down through the personal 'care that each individual citizen takes of himself. The common cold is frequently the starting point of respira- . toty diseases and if neglected mas I give rise to wide spread infections I through the system.

Another question Is of armament - ' There hpvo been no developments in 'that respe t since the Geneva conference < tilled. The United States, howevet, needs some new cruisers and will build them. Other questions relate to taxes, the gove.-nment of the District of Columbia. ot which the president is the head, flood conditions iu New England, appointment of an ambassador to Cuba, barge lines, difficulties of the coal industry and son on. In rising before the assembled corr si indents, Mr. Coolidge twice a week mounts tho most potent pulpit in tile world. His words spoken in a low voice, echo throughout the world. Sometimes it happens that even lietore he has reach'd the last o test Inn several correspondents unobtrusively retire from the room to their private telephones in the same building to dictat • a snutch of an extremely Im ponaiil story.

j that before the last of the correspondents had turned to leave nt the tun lusion of the conference, the prosidi'iit'H opinion on ttn internation ul subject of moment might htfve reach,•<! London and be well on it way to Homo. Ih-rlin, Huenos Aires, Kl ° Manila und Tokloi The United Press system of m ws ditrlbutlon easily could work itch u seeming miracle. All the world is represented at th< president's eonferenv s, leporters fioin Eutope and representative of the press of South America. Africa and tho Orient gather there. Two rules tin y must observe. First, they may not put oral questions during the conference, although on occasion tills tule may be transgressed without rousing the presidential ire; second, the piesldent must not be quoted. Ills exact words may be used, but they may not bo attributed directly to Mr Coolidge. Thus was created the -*White House Spokesman" who was so lampooned in the Democratic press that Mr. Coolidge "let is be known" that he would prefer the correspon i dents to adopt some other phraseology. t I Nowadays, in writing of these < on-

ferenees.
