PASS CHRISTIAN. MISS., Dec. 31.
President Wilson to-day declined to J
discuss in any way his Coming con
ference with Envoy Lind, but It ia be
lieved that Lind knows the downfall
of General Huerta is only a few day*
off, and that preparations must he
made by the United States to meet
the situation which will ensue.
Those who hold to this theory say
that no other explanation can be of
fered for Lind’s post-haste visit. It
is said a cable message received from
the envoy was of such a nature that
he was told by the President to come
here without delay.
It is probable that the conference
will not take place until Friday. The

Dr. L. O. Howard, of Washington,
permanent secretary the associa-
tjon. suggested the movement some
time ago. and after a good deal of
| discussion and some opposition by
prominent lawyers because the first
i committee did not include one of
their profession, the following com
mittee was appointed:
Edward C. Pickering. J. A. Holmes.
E. B. Wilson, the new president of
the association; Senator Elihu Root—
perhaps the greatest lawyer in Amer
ica—and A. D. Little, a New York
lawyer of vast experience In the trial
of expert testimony cases.
Will Continue Work.
This committee. Dr. Howard said
would make its report of progress to
the council, receive suggestions, and
continue Its work. Eventually, a rec
ommendation in the form of a resolu-
| tion to the President of the United
States will be adopted, the laws of
European nations being carefully stu
died. and a hill introduced in Con
gress calling for a suitable law.
Among the interesting papers read
at the various meetings Wednesday
morning was one on “The Develop
ment by Highway Bond Issues." by
L. I. Hewes. chief of economics and
maintenance. United States Office of
Public Roads.
The paper advocated the shortening
of th* type of bond Issued and the
adoption of the “serial type.”
“The present tendency,” Mr. Hewes
said, "is to the 30-year term for the
construction of relatively cheap roads
which frequently can not last until
the bonds are retired. * * * Rond
issues for highways should secure a
high percentage of permanent im
provement in the roads built from the
proceeds.
Long Terms Dangerous.
“The tendency to extend mileage
unduly with the proceeds of long
term bonds is financially dangerous.”
Dealing further with roads and
particularly with Southern roads.
W. W. Crosby read a paper on “Types
of Road Crusts or Pavements.”
which considered the various types
of surfaces, from asphalt and brick
through gravel, slag, stone and vitri
fied cubes.
“The rich agricultural soils of the
Sunny South,” said the speaker, “re
quire more careful attention while
being made into roads than do those
of a more gravelly or rocky charac
ter.
' There is no more striking or dan
gerous fallacy in the art of road
building than a ‘standard surface.’
This matter is a topic for careful
consideration, especially in view of
the fact that $50,000,000 of borrowed i
road money now is ready for expen- j
diture in the South.
“The Necessitv of a Standard T.aoel
on all Commodities Offered for Sale" i
was handled by George R. Wieland,
research associate of the t'amegia Li- j
stPution and Yale lecturer.
“To determine the value of a com - *
modity.” said Mr. Wieland. “and to {

“What the article i ; how made; i
here made; when made, and by i
of the Southland” Tuesday night in a
powerful plea by Dr. Charles Wad
dell Stiles, of the United States Pub
lic Health Service, in his address de
livered at Taft Hall before the mem
bers of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science.
“The men of the South give only
from one-third to one-half the pro
tection to their women that the men
of other sections give theirs,” Dr.
Stiles asserted, and declared that one
of the chief oversights in the South
ern plan was the lack of adequate
segregation of the white and black
races.
Dr Stiles pointed out the fact that
a mutual interchange of two dis-
eases—tuberculosis and malaria—was
a constant factor in damaging the
health and destroying the life of both
- ftnd that in both cases it was the
mothers of the white race who suf
fered most.
The constructive activities of Geor
gia figured largely in Tuesday’s ses- I
sions of the mechanical science and j
engineering sectio , which is holding I
its meetings at the Georgia School of
Technology.
At this meeting Captain Clayton
Chief of the Construction Department
of Atlanta, explained the workings of |
the new sewerage disposal plants of
Atlanta: B. M. Mall. O. F. Harley,
j. S. White and others told of the
great development of Georgia’s water
powers now in progress.
W. C. Splker had some Interesting
data on the behavior of the concrete
framework and foundations of Fulton
County's new courthouse. A dozen or
more other Interesting papers, dealing
for the most part with engineering
projects and feats in the South, were
read.
At the meeting of the entomology
section Dr. L. O. Howard, United
States Entomologist, read a compre
hensive paper upon the present states
of gypsy moth parasites In New Eng
land. Dr. Howard told a remarkable
story of how the New England farm
ers are eradicating this pest hy tho
importation of parasites which wage
war upon the moths.
