I MILK MEASURE Ordinance Expected to be Passed at Next Monday Wight's Session. The stamp of approval of the committee of the whole of the common council was placed on the milk ordinance of the board of public health at the regular meeting Tuesday night and it will come up for final approval at the regular meeting of the council on Monday night. This approval, fought for by Judge L. M. IIammers( hmidt of tho civic federation, comes as a culmination of a fight for more than a year carried on by the News-Times for an ordinance to give the city the control over its milk supply. As passed it is a strong compromise measure, giving the department of health the whip-hand over producers and retailers and making a license necessary for every one engaged In tho business. One Changr .Made. The single change made in the ordinance is the one that was suggested by Judge Hammerschmidt, providing that grade milk can he sold in the city without clarification. This grade "P." milk is rawmilk having less than 100,000 bacteria per cubic centimeter. One of the other grades of milk is pasteurized or has less than 300,000 bacteria per cubic centimeter before and less than 100,0 00 bacteria after pasteurization. The final class is equal to certified milk that has been passed by the government. Besides the licensing of dealers and producers and the placing limits of bacteria count, the ordinance provides that the milk sold must be in bottles that bear the label of the dealer and also the class und.r which the milk is sohl. It provides for a milk Inspector on full time with authority to demand the risht to inspect aivd entrusted with the power to revoke licenses. Provides for Sanitation. The sanitation of the cows and of the barns and stables is also considered in the ordinance, and it is given to the inspector to refuse to pass milk that is not produced under the b.st Cf conditions. To Pay Strike Ihpciws. Assurance was piven to the board of public safety which came before the meeting that any expenses incurred by it in the preservation of order during the existing street car strike would be approved by the council and that a special ordinance would be passed at the next meeting of the council to provide the necessary funds. Pres't Augustine of the board explained to the councilmen that SLUG had already been paid from the misce'laneous fund of the board for the hire of the extra men that mutt be hired by the department and that after the first of lune the funds now at hand will be exhausted and more money needed. He said that at the present time there'are 22 extra men in the employ of the police de partment and that it is anticipated that they will have to be retained at least for some time. S2.0OO to Health Board. The meeting also tool: favorable action on the ordinance providing a special ttrant of $2,000 to the board of public health for current expenses as well as upon the ordinance giving over Kwing a v. from Portage av. to the city limits at Krnsbergtr st. to the park board for the completion of the park system of the city. Kwing a v.. it is planned, will be turned into a boulevard for its entire length and will serve, at some future date with the co-operation of the sifter city, to be a southern link of connection with Mishawaba. This is the only street in the southern part of the city that runs directly through, and it Is hoped that it may soon he made a highway of travel between the two cities. The park board has already obtained the consent of most of the property owners alons the street to widen it to 8') feet and to turn it into a suitable boulevard. CO. F RECRUITS TO BE EXAMINED FRIDAY NIGHT Lieut. Nicodemus of the regular army will be in South Pend Friday night to examine recruits for divisions of Co F, I. N. G. A telegram to ('apt. Clinton V. Hogers Tuesday evening gave definite information as to the coining, of the examiner. Forty men are now awaiting examination by the army physician, and most of these were on hand both Monday and Tuesday nights when tho lieutenant was expected. The thorouch examination here is awaited to do away with the necessity of examining the men when they go to mobilization camps. "Nothing doing." was the report of recruiting officers Tuesday night at the Armory. Interest in the guard companies machine gun. supply, headquarters and regulars seems to have completely died out. It is thought, however, that the nearness of the date for mobilization will have an effect on the roster. Good men for all departments are still w anted. m:w cam: riLi:i.

Notre Dame News

Monsignor Luke J. Kvcrs, paktor of St. Andrew's church in New York, known as the "newspaperman's church", has been given a purse of $2.500 by newspapermen of thu city land one of $200 by city hall oi!icials with which to attend the diamond jubilee celebration to be held at Notre Dame next month. Father Kvcrs is an old graduate of the school and since taking up his duties in the east has won his way into the hearts of the members of the i "fourth estate" of New York espec-j ially. In his church, a mass is celebrated every Sunday morning at 2:20 o'clock for their benefit. Lev. Thomas Iahey, professor in the department of journalism at Notre Dame, was assistant pa?tor in the church during his stay in New York last year. Funeral services for Brother Andrew, who died yesterday morning, will be held in Our Lady of tha Saicred Heart chapel on Thursday morn ing at S : ii o. o'clock. Kev. Alexander Kirsch will celebrate the hiqh mass. Burial will be in the community cemetery immediately after the mass.

Decision of house republicans in caucus Tuesday to oppose any newspaper censorship provision in the pending espionage bill was followed by a letter from pres't Wilson to Chairman Webb of the judiciary committee repeating that it was imperative that congress grant censorship powers to deal with the few persons who tannot he relied upon to observe "a patriotic reticence about everything which publication could be of inJury." "I have been very much surprised." wrote the president, "to find several of the pujlic prints stating that the administration had abandoned the position which it so distinctly took, and ttill holds, that authority to excrcist censorship over the press to the extend that that censorship is emUjoied in the recent action of the house of representatives is necessary to the public safety. It. of course, has not been abandoned because the reasons still exist why such authority is necessary for the protection of the nation. Some Can't Ho Hclietl On. 'I have every confidence that the great majority of the newspapers of the country will observe a patriotic reticence about everything whose publication would be of inj ny, but in every country there are some persons in a position to do mischief in this field who cannot be relied upon and whose interests or desires will lead to actions on their part highly dangerous to the nation in the midst of a war. I want to say again that it seems to me imperative that powers of this sort should be granted." The house espionage bill carried a cMisorshin provision, but the one by the senate did not and this was one of the differences which sent the measure to conference where it has been discussed for more than a week without an agreement. Letter is Surprise. The president's letter caused some surprise because many members of congress and some administration leaders had understood for several days that no further attempt was to be made at present to put through any such provisions. Sentiment in the senate id strong against censorship, and unless the conferees agree upon a very mild form it probably will not be accepted there. Kep. Webb announced, upon receipt of the president's fetter, that he would wace a determined !icht in behalf of the censorship amendment written into the hill in the house bv a narrow margin just before it was sent to conference.

FOR ILL One Dollar to Start the Purchase on Installment Plan is Newest Wrinkle. Nl-:w YORI., May 22. To enable persons of small mcar.s to buy Liberty loan bonl on an installment basis the federal reserve bank of New York in conjunction with the Liberty loan committe? is perfecting a plan for the issuance of participation certificates, it was announced Tuesday night. The certificates probably will be in denominations of $10. They will bear the same interest as bonds and may be exchanged for bonds when the holders have accumulated the required ?3'J worth. Hope Stores "Will liny. Although it is not proposed to have the certificates negotiable in the sense of $10 bank notes, the committee points out that they may become so in the course of time, this depending entirely upon merchants and others to whom they may be tendered. The committee expresses the hope that stores will buy the certifiactes adn sell them over the counters to persons who would like to buy bonds, but whose means will not permit them to invest as much as $5U or luo at one time. Another plan to enable persons of small means to purchase bonds was announced by the league of cooperative savings and loan associations operating under tho national defense share law, which recently was approved by Gov. Whitman. Any individual with one dollar, the league has decided, may purchase a bond on installments, with the understanding that the balance may be paid at the option of the buyers at any time within a year. "Under this plan, in the event that the subscriber fails to pay for the bond within a year he may get back at any time the amount he has subscribed with the accumulate! interest at the rate of 2 1-2 percent based on monthly balances," said the announcement. "The organization makes no charge for the service." To OH All Ked Tape. The league will not confine its sales to members, but states that its offer is open to all and that "purchasers are not required to furnish references of any sort." Its object, it .adds, "is to cut all red tape and make the purchase of Liberty bonds as simple as the purchase of a loaf of bread." The federal reserve bank of New York issued a statement Tuesday night to the effect that it had established a "special rate of re-discount of :: 1-2 percent for paper given for the purpose of purchasing Liberty loan bonds of the government about to be Issued. uca paper having a maturity of not exceeding foj days."

A" an encouragement to avaiators throughout the country to participate during the week of Jur.e 4 iji a "Liberty loan aerial rally," the Aem Club of America has arranged to present a $lno bond to each tlyer who reaches the destination assigned to him.
