PRESENT LAW AMPLE.
Tbi laws 0 tha United States now la
force." say Messrs. Russell and Bartjatt.
"are ample and sufficient to carry out
and enforce all necessary quarantine reg-
ulations and when they are carried out In
co-operation with the authorities of the
States as intended by all previous acts
of ongress they have always operated
hanr.oniously and for the benefit of thi
peopie.'" All of the existing acts of con-
gress and all rules and regulations made
by Federal officials bearing" on the ex-
clusion of yellow fever and other con-
tagious and infectious diseaaea. are print-
ed with the report and rTiad1 a part of it
Messrs. Russell and UarileU declare
that they believe the various States have
the authority in the exercise of their
police powers to prevent the introduc-
tion of disease ani pectilen'-e. and t- rg-
iate and conrrol such in their limits. A
number of supreme court decisions are
cited in support of tnia contention. "

on to say. "that corresa haj the power

served to them by th constitution of the

that the exeri.se of su n pio powers by

8-veral other d cimor.. are then cited

man of the Interstate and foreign com-

Concerning this latter the report says:
