DISPATCHES FROM COLOMBIA Doings and Happenings That Mark the Progress of South Carolina People, Gathered Around the State Capital. Columbia. The South Carolina state board of health iII executive session see defuiite plans in motion with a view to its co operation with the inited ,States pub lie health service for the insuring of proper sanitary and health environ ments of the state's military camps, Camp Jackson at Columbia. Camp Sevier at Greenville and Camp Wads worth at Spartanburg. Soahtl empha sis was drawn by the board to the establishing of certain definite areas in reference to the camps over which a rigid surveillance will be kept em bodying a strict observance of all mil Itary requirements. Particular atten tion was directed to the prevention of malaria and the treatient of tuber cular patients among the soldiers. The board of the health agreed to work In strict harmony with the Unit ed States public health service and to give the later control over the certain definite areas referred to. In view of the fact that numerous stores and soft drinks establishmtents are spring ing up around the camps, the board will formulate certain rues and regu latlons in regard to soda fountain and vending of soft drinks. probably re quiring sterilized and individual drink ing glasses. The regulat ions will in elude milk which will be re(i'tlred to be pasteurized. The care of wells and dairies in the definite areas will be thoroughly looked into. ivery pre cauation will be taken aginst the spread of malaria in the canps which will necessitate the absolute extermi nation of mosquitoes in restricted areas. With a foresight to exigencies that might arise as to the care of tuber cular patients among the soldiers Dr. James A. -layne secretary, read a re port addressed to Capt. .1. 1P. Johnson, Medical Corps, U. S. A., which was unanimously adopted by tie state board. The report, which is of gen eral interest, follows: "1. The State of South Carolina through its state board of health wishes to assume care of soldiers (citizens of South Carolina) who are incapacitated from duty by the ap pearance of tuberculosis. "2.. We want to take temporary care of soldiers who develop tuber culosis now residing in South Caro lina, pending the transfer to their own state. "3.

The organization of a regiment of itato militia, for service solely with. in the limits of the state, will be tak m up by Governor Manning in con lerence with the secretary of war and avernors of New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware and Virginia at an early late. Preliminary steps have already peen taken 'and the matter has been rought to the attention of the war 'ollege in Washington. The company' comprising the pro losed regiment will be formed only in hose communities which are anxious o form such organizations and which will guarantee to give them financial Support. The officers will be designat 3d and appointed by the governor. Tib irrangements so far made are purely tentative and are contingent upon the approval of the secretary of war and the assistance of the federal govern rnoit. ''hie general plan is to organize a regiment of infantry, the members of which will subscribe to oaths render lug them subject to the orders of the governor for use solely within the state. The president will also have authority to cill upon them for serv Ice. but only within the borders of the state to which they belong. The organization parall'ls the status of the -militia under the Dick law of the national government, which was sup erceded by the national defense act of June 3, 1916. "The same conditions we face con. fronts the authorities of other states," said Governor Manning. "There Is a very apparent need for the state authorities to have at their command a mobile force for use solely within each state. The organization of 'Home Guards' would not. he a sufficient check as they could be used only in the lo calities in which they are formed. Furthermore, there is some doubt as to how far the federal government would go in extending recognition to them in the matter of equipment. "With the state militia, however, which would have its central body of control, the probability is that the gov-. ernment. wvill extend recognition and renda~r the necessary assistance after theo regular army, the National Army and the federalized National Guard have beenl equiippedl. "I initeind to go to Washington in the near future wvhien T shall present the matter in full to the secretary of war and1 obtain from him such as suranlces as the war college has seen fit to grant." state Aid For Schools.
