It Is u;;ed that great associations and thousands of individual physicians are anxious the government shall take cognizance of the necessity for a more adequato system of guarding the health of the American people. Time and again suggestion has been made that there should be a department of health with a chief who would have a place in the president's cabinet. It is not likely that congress for years to come, at any rate, will sanction the creation of such a department of government, but it Is likely that a health bureau of some kind before long will be established. It must not be taken for granted that Uncle Sam does not do anything to look after the health of his nephews and nieces. The Marine hospital service Is efficient, and It Is aided In its work by the medical corps of the army and navy. The American Health league is petitioning congress to establish a National bureau of health, d It Is nuking tbe people to back up Ita request Plea of Health Officers. In a communication recently put out from Its New York headquarters, officials of the bureau of health, say: "Responding to general demands for such a scientific check to the preventable diseases and deaths that are now known to cost the nation $1,500,000,-00In life and labor each year, officers of this organization are making every effort to have a law speedily made of their recommendation, which was contained in the platform of the three leading parties In the last presidential campaign and which has been advocated by leaders of every political faith since that time. President Taft has Just assured representatives of the American Medical association and American Health league, they declare, that he Is heartily In favor of this plan. If the people of every section of the land will declare themselves on this vital question In tbe next few weeks, It Is asserted Uncle Sam soon may be persuaded to give the same attention to the physical welfare of human beings that he now does to that of sheep, cattle, hens and hogs." The friends of the plan for a health bureau under government control say that the bureau Is particularly necessary to warn the people of this coun try "of the dangers that menace their vitality In the most common walks of everyday life." Then the American Health league says that It is calling attention to drugs as well as diseases. Declaration la made that numerous forms of drug habits are becoming in the more prevalent everywhere United States than people realize. Tho dangers of cocaine, morphine and opium are pointed out, and It is said that vigorous efforts which are being made to control and minimize their sale ought to have the sanction, the backing and the aid of a government bu0 While physicians are trying to gt--t government recognition of the need of federal safeguards for the health of the nation, sociologists are trying to get Uncle Sam to establish what for lack of a better name they call a Laboratory of Criminology. The subcommittee of the committee on Judiciary has Just reported favorably a bill which appropriated a sum of money for the establishment of such a laboratory or bureau. It Is not the intention of the lawmakers, if they pass a bill of this kind, to make the bureau a large affair. What the friends of the measure want is to have appointed three or four specialists in criminology who will mske a deep" study of the causes of crime with a view of finding out if it is not possible In some way to bring to bear the preventive measures which are so much better than cure measures. Crime i Disease. Some people go so far as to say that crime In many of Its forms la a disease. A great many people ndnilt that crime Is frequently committed by persons who are the victims of circumstances and who are not Impelled to crime by whnt msy be called real If confess slia" criminal motives establish a bureau of crlmlnolnKy, Hie experts will study living conditions ol the people, the effect of poverty nnd liquor drinking on crime, nnd many other subjects which may shed light upon the main question. The same argument that Is used by physicians for the establishment of such n bureau at they want Is used by the friends of the ether project. They say that If Uncle Sam is willing to spend millions every year through the agricultural department to check the ravages of Insect pests, that ho ought to bo willing to spend a few thousands to check the ravages of crime.

Senator who is the chairman of the national monetary commission, Is In constant conference with tbe president over the form which the great financial measure Is to take. The president believes that Senator Aldrlch, In this matter of reform of the currency, Is absolutely sincere and that the Rhode Islander hopes to make constructive financial legislation something like a monument to his legislative memory. It can be said that the chances are-9In 100 that it is tbe Intention of the administration, on the advice of the majority of the monetary commission, to recommend to congress next year some plan for a central bank of Issue. In all the speeches which Senator Aldrlch made In the to west and In all tbe Interviews which be has submitted since congress assembled, he has made no direct statement that he Is In favor of a central bank, but It Is known that his mind and attention rest upon such an Institution as one of the best means, as be views It, to make stable the country's financial system. Details Not Worked Out The president has bad presented to him a number of different plans for a central bank, but to none of them has ho given a final preference, and It can be said without fear of contradiction that Mr. Aldrlch himself has not stated definitely just which plan be thinks should be selected for ultimate Mr. Taft wants a central approval. bank, if the country la to have one, which in a measure will be a mean between two extremes. President Taft bas let It be known that it la his earnest desire that legislation intended to give stability to tbe country's currency shall have attached to It no taint of suspicion of what Is generally, called Wall street influence. The president la telling his friends that he Is confident, from what Senator Aldrlch tells him, that the Rhode Islander is no less anxious than he to see to It that Wall street shall in no way be given an entering wedge of influence by means of the legislation when It Is finally enacted. Gift for the Kaiser. The house of representatives has Just passed a bill appropriating $5,000 for a replica of the statue of the Daron von Steuben which Is to be erected soon in Lafayette square, of The replica the Washington. statue, If the senate sanctions the house action and the president signs the bill, will be sent to Kaiser Wilhelm and the German people In the name of the people of America as a grateful recognition of tbe services of von Steuben to tbe American colonies when they were trying to throw off the yoke of Great Britain. The movement to present the von Steuben memorial to Germany was Initiated by Representative Richard Bar-tholof St. Louis. Mr. Bartboldt was born in Germany, but he has lived in this country a great many years. It la perhaps possible that the St Louis representative had the German people In mind more than tbe German emperor when he first thought of a plan to present the von Steuben memorial to the fatherland. Once on a time, if the records are not wrong, Mr. Bartholdt was in Berlin and desiring to pay his respects to the emperor, he requested an audience and described himself as a German-AmericaIt Is said that Emperor William remarked, "Germans I know and s Americans I know, but I do not know."
