justice department is
ling a crusade—not against
i like murders and bank rob-
•ies—but against crimes com-
tted in the name of the king’s
lisb. Many scholars contend
at lawyers, wiien they write pro-
ilonaily, probably do more than
other group to torture the
lish language. The legal jar-
i handed down from generation
generation has been multiplied
by words and phrases to the point
where it’s almost unintelligible.
But now the justice department
has decided to do a little trail-
blazing and hack out some of the
judicial wordiness—at least so far
as federal courts are concerned.
liked it and so did congress be-
cause six years ago the lawmakers
authorised the supreme court to
formulate a rule book simplifying
legalliterature. With the help of
state bar associations the book has
now been completed. And it makes
a lot of basic changes—even tell-
ing federal attorneys how to
write readable indictments.

from the army and is now Jiving
the former Miss Samrnie Wright,
and two children. He served with
the AAF in England as a crew
chief.
Of course, this is just a prelimi-
nary step in cleaning up the
jungle of court language which has
been growing wild over hundreds
of years. But who knows, if the
justice department’s crusade bears
fruit, the laymen one day may be
able to read a legal document and
actually understand itl.
Use of a little more oatmeal
and a.Jittle less bread Is an easy

The justice department doesn’t
have to worry much over the way

More Undulanl
Fever in Texas
(tty A—orinted Prr*$)
Austin — The State Health
Department report* there has
been a sharp increase in the inci-
dence of undulant fever in Tex-
as this year. Ami the situation is
illumed—at least in part—on con-
sumption of uupusteurized milk
and milk products. The State
Health Officer, Dr. George Cox,

Jack’s seamy face was raptur-
ous. Its greasy tan make-up soil-
ed hia white shirt collar. The
net base of n frontal hairpiece he
wears in "Double Trouble” was
visible along his hairline.
■ “There was a security about
vaudeville. If your act was good,
you knew juBt what city you’d he

Jack was half of the team of
Crafts and Haley. Charlie Crafts
lead* the orchestru now at a Los
Angeles theatre.
“I was the comedian and he
wa* the straight man,” Jack said.
I asked if he could remember
a favorite gag,
“Yeah. I’d tell the audience
‘You know how vaudeville come-
dians are always saying, as $ was
on my way to the theatre tonight.’
Well, I’ve been in vaudeville lfj,
years and nothing like that ever
happened to me, — Jack’s eyes
twinkled—until tonight.”
“That one was stolen by near-
ly every guy in' Vaudoville.”
Jack’s hobby is hi* 300-acre

drive south of here, where he
raises cattle. He visit* it nearly
every week-end.

Thi* is the statement of Dr.
Geo. W. Cox, State Health Offi-
cer, who add*: “Immunization Ij
the best and most effective mean* j
of protection agaimrt diphtheria,
tetanus, smallpox, whooping
cough, and typhoid fever.” Ac-
cording to Dr. Cox the ages that
are best for immunisation of chil-
dren are: for diphtheria and teta-
nus, 9 to 12 months; Schick test,
6 months later, re-immunize if
immunity iyts pot been establish-
ed; smallpox, 6 to 12 months, re—
vaccination at 6 to 12 years;
whooping cough, 6 to 12 months.
Tetanus or lockjow is not com-
mon, however, when it does occur
it is usually fatal. The tetanus

abrasion* and particularly deep
wounds, so that it has always been
an important problem of public
health as well as military medi-
cine.
Other ways to fight disease arc
through good sanitation measures, j
The provision of safe water sup- j
plies, the pasteurization of milk, 1
the supervision of food and other i
precaution have in many com- j
munities reduced typhoid fever j
to a minimum. Isolation and 1
quarantine have their place and
are extremely valuable, but none
of them has the quality of im-
munity,, of being a part of one-
self, and consequently always
available.
