Entered, at the Post Office at Richmond, Indiana, as Second Class Mail Matter. Poor City Business Policy The action of Messrs. Marlatt and McMinn, the majority of the board of public works, in oyer-riding President Bavis' objection to voting to reduce the municipal light plant's insurance from $90,000 to $20,000, marks the inauguration of a very dangerous business policy on the part of the administration. Both of the gentlemen first named. as private citizens for years worked for manufacturing. plants in this city whose managers heavily insured them. This not only afforded protection to the interests of the stockholders therein but, by providing for the instant creation of a sufficient fund to rebuild in the event of disastrous fires, also minimized the duration of possible non-employment for their working forces. This is sound business policy and is pursued by every well-managed manufacturing plant or business institution in the entire country. In the particular case of our municipal light plant, its stockholders are the citizens of Richmond. Their collective credit as well as their direct payment of money as tax-payers and as contributors to the plant's profits as electricity consumers, has made possible the city's owning such a plant. Messrs. Marlatt and McMinn, as co-managers of this citizens' plant, as well as coemployers of the men working therein, should feel constrained to give these interests solemnly entrusted to their care the same degree of protection against fire as they themselves were accorded up to only a short time ago. It is always praiseworthy for managers to reduce legitimately all expenses or fixed charges possible. In reducing insurance charges, many managers today are taking advantage of the wonderful saving in this item made possible through the installation in their plants of automatic sprinkler systems. A well-known manufacturing concern of this city, the Swayne-Rob-inson Company, where Mr. McMinn formerly worked, has been thoroughly protected in this manner and, without reducing the amount of insurance it always carried, has made a notable saving through a reduction in its premium rate.

would be irrevocably lost to the competing company. In such a case $20,000 of insurance money would simply be adding insult to injury. The surest way for the city to avoid in the highest degree any such danger is to install the automatic sprinkler system in its municipal plant. That this is a good means of preventing disastrous conflagrations is attested by the extremely low insurance" rate 'that follows such -an installation As another safeguard against the incalculable losses often caused through inability to continue business operations for any reason is lack-of-occupancy insurance. Both of these features should be given immediate consideration by the board of public works. Until the most important one, however, the automatic sprinkler system, is adopted and installed, the full amount of plant insurance should be maintained so if the unexpected does happen, certain consciences may be justly peaceful and the city's loss placed at a minimum.
It is not too late for Messrs. Marlatt and McMinn to join with President Bavis in investigating the savings possible in light plant charges through the installation of the automatic sprinkler system. Until they do this, however, they should restore the old amount of insurance to the plant so that the city shall be as thoroughly and efficiently protected in this regard as though it were a private corporation. The city's light plant may never burn. It is human nature to think generally that it is the other fellow's plant that is going to burn. The unexpected, however, may happen and if it does, even $90,000 will not begin to cover the city's loss. Besides the value of the property actually destroyed and the additional cost of rebuilding,
Tuberculosis Menaces Chiefly in Childhood Some advances in the field of tuberculosis that are of special significance to the layman are brought out in a recent number of the Medical Times. The menace involved in them should be heeded. In a fair and able review of the achievement in the study of tuberculosis during 1914 Dr. George T. Palmer points out that the most gratifying progress has been made, not in startling discoveries, but in increasing recognition of well known ideas. Less reliance appears to be now placed upon specific treatment and climate than formerly, rendering the management of cases less irksome and costly. One important advance which has a real element of newness is the increasing realization that tuberculosis infection mostly occurs in children. The value of this knowledge brings home to the layman the urgent necessity of attention to minor ailments, like persistent colds, cough and loss of weight, especially when accompanied by feverishness, even if manifested only by headache, thirst or languor, in children below the age of 6. Early medical examination of these little ones may become of immense value in saving life, just as early attention to growths in the adult has saved many lives menaced by cancer. Unsterilized milk should never be given to children. In the fight against tuberculosis too much attention has been directed to anti-spitting ordinances and not enough to the enhancement of the resisting capacity of both children and adults by living in the open air night and day, a practice which is happily becoming quite popular, and daily bathing with the coolest water that may be agreeable. For the information of adults a valuable result has been attained through a questionaire sent to 3,000 physicians, which developed the
fact that persons addicted to the habitual use of alcohol are very much more liable to tuberculosis infection than others. The lesson is obvious: to regard any loss of weight, especially when accompanied by slight feverishness, as a warning to consult a physician, not be content with a cough mixture, and especially to avoid the numerous nostrums against which' Commissioner Goldwater is now directing an intelligent and yet fair warfare. The Sun adverts to these well ascertained facts because many lives may surely be saved by heeding their significance. New York Sun.
