PAGE TWELVE T H E WATCHMAN THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1939 All Voters Must Sign The Register, Says New Ryling (Continued from Page T) <S> quiries, it is my opinion that all voters must sign the register or make an Identification statement in lieu thereof upon the day of any general, primary or special election. It is also necessary for all voters to sign the register or make an identification statement in lieu thereof upon the day of their registration in all cases where personal registration is re quired.” No Raw Milk For County Says Health Dept. (Continued from Page 1) people of Suffolk County,” said Dr. Ross. He then gave the facts upon •which the action was based. He cited the numerous outbreaks of communicable diseases which have been scientifically traced to the use of raw milk. He discussed the many objections heard and their possibilities. He also ex plained “pasteurization” by say ing that “Pasteurization is for the purpose of destroying bacteria in milk that cannot be kept out of it in the usual conduct of human affairs. Workers in the produc tion of milk may have sore throats and infect the teats of the cow in milking, or workers may be un known carriers of diseases such as typhoid or dysentery, or they may have small infections on their fingers not sufficiently painful to make them stop their work, and in these cases milk may be in fected.” In summing up his report he explained why raw milk is dan gerous, He said: “Pasteurization destroys all of these germs. If milk is not pasteurized, it must be regarded, as potentially dan gerous. Of course a iarge number do not acquire disease from milk, but no one knows when anyone may acquire disease from milk. Some degree of mild mastitis has been found in good herds to the amount of 80 per cent. It is com municable to the other cows in the heerd. It is quite common to find replorts of mastitis in herds reaching 20 per cent to 30 per cent. The disease may be acute, sub-acute or chronic, so mild as to be unnoticed by untrained per sons before it becomes severe. It may only take a day to infect milk if germs are present on the teat or communicated to the milk by a worker in the dairy, in the beginning of sickness such as sep tic sore throat or scarlet fever.” 88th Annual County Fair Coming Up (Continued from Page 1) rectors of the Society, of which former Assemblyman John G. Downs of Cutchogue is president. From a report given by Frank M. Corwin, secretary-treasurer, it was learned that the gate receipts this year were less than $3,000, which is nearly half of last year’s amount. One of the officials who spoke most strongly in favor of the con tinuance of the fair was Repub lican County Chairman W. Kings- land Macy of Islip, vice president of the society, who declared that the county exposition has, directly and indirectly, created work for many residents of the county and has been a means of promoting business. The general opinion seemed to be that unfavorable economic con ditions are as much to blame for the fair’s poor financial showing as any other one factor. It was agreed that there must be revolutionary changes made in order to put the cherished insti tution on its feet.

In addition 8.000 copies have been distributed through automobile clubs, infor mation bureaus, individual in quiries, and chambers of com merce throughout the eastern States. “Our Long Island at the Fair committee financed the publica tion of 55,000 copies of the book let and we are now taking steps to restrict its distribution only to those evincing a real interest in the four counties of Long Island.” In conjunction with the Long Island Regional Exhibit in the New York State Building the Re gional Book provides visitors with all of the essential facts regarding the industrial, commercial, resi dential, educational, historical and recreational importance of Brook lyn, Queens, Nassau and Suffolk Counties in addition to detailed information regarding the major ity of the towns of Nassau and Suffolk counties and thirty of the larger villages. . __ Mail inquiries are constantly >3 a net gam ot 21(r boy members pver the same period last year and a net increase of 14 troops.

SHIPS FORCED TO STOCK UP FOR 'ROUND TRIP' BY WAR The opening of hostilities in Europe, with the resultant inter ruption of ocean freight and traf fic service, has already been keen ly felt here by exporters and pur veyors. Several large firms who ordi narily stock trans-Atlantic pas senger and freight ships with heavy supplies of fruits, vege tables, butter, eggs and poultry and other perishables, stated this week that their business in this line was almost at a standstill. This tonnage loss is extremely heavy, as many of the major steamship lines supply their ships here with many commodities in the parishable line for a round trip between this port and Europe.
