THE PUBLIC MORALS.
Report Reversed by Committee at p
Z. Diocesan Convention.


BOSTON, May lat the session today
Of the 1921 annual convention OF the Pro-
testant Episcopal diocese Of Massachu-
sets the committee appointed last year
to consider public morals reported, in part,
as follows:
I'VE call upon parents to feel their
sacred responsibility for judicious instruc-
ton OF children as to sex and the relation
OF personal purity to health and happiness
Mothers especially should instruct their
daughters. for young women are strangely
ignorant In these matters
They should tell their daughters the
fearful risk they undergo IL they marry
men who have led immoral lives. Parents
should know the companions OF their chill
dren. especially the young men with whom
their daughters are acquainted.
"A serious responsibility rests upon the
church. Clergymen should teach positively
the glory Of purity. They should insist
upon single standard for men and wom-
en-. and urge the reformation of the social
code in this respect
THE ambitious standards of social life
and the increased cost Of living are large
ly responsible for the postponement of
marriages, and late marriages are In part
answerable for immortality. The average
age of the first marriage of men has
within century changed from twenty
two years to twenty-seven years. Public
sentiment should honor young people who
are willing to endure comparative poverty
and privation In order to establish a home"

PLAN TO PREVENT COAL FAMINE.
Reported United Effort Of Hartman
and Hill Linea

CHICAGO. May 1.-The traffic and oper-
ating departments of the Hartman and
the Hill lines have united in a strenuous
effort to prevent q recurrence Of coal
famine next winter in the west and the
northwest. E,
Orders have been issued by the highest
officials of the various roads, and-have the
sanction Of E. H. Harr. man and ]. J. HILL
requiring all of the officials to make every
effort to induce the coal dealer to lay in
their winter supply in the summer months.
The officials of the railroads dread an
other such coal famine as occurred last
winter, when they were blamed for the
suffering and restitution which reigned in
the west and northwest many weeks.
Accordingly a personal canvass is being
made in all the cities and coal dealers are
being urged personally to Cooperate with
the railroads in placing the.-Western coun-
try beyond the possibility of another coal
famine. 1t is the purpose of the railroads
to either get the west and northwest ade-
quately coaled during the warm months,
or to place the blame for any future
famine where they say 1t rightfully be-
longs-with the dealers. who wait until the
last moment to get their winters supply.

THE BLACK HAND TRIAL.
Defense Striving Hard to Discredi
Testimony Of State Witnesses.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, May 1.-The
whole Of the morning session of the "Black
Hand trial was taken up hearing testi-
mony which would have tendency to es-
tablish an alibi for some of the defendants.
Several witnesses testified to the where
abouts Of Conzaza at certain times which
was at variance with the evidence offered
by the commonwealth. The prosecution
has singled out Conzaza as one of the lead
ers of the alleged conspirators, and the de-
tense is leaving no stone unturned to dis
credit the testimony offered by the other
side.
Joseph Cornelia, another of the defend
ants, testified that he was living In New
ark, N. j., when the meeting of the al
legged conspirators was held at Browntown,
near here. He produced letters from per-
sons living in Newark to show that he was
a resident of that city at the time stated
District Attorney Salisbury Said to the
Associated Press correspondent today that
he would call large number of witnesses
in rebuttal. among them several members
Of the state constabulary, whose testi-
mony, 1t Is expected will upset that Of
fered by the defense. The attorneys for
the prisoners will not close their case un-
til tomorrow or probably Friday.

STORY OF CRISIS. DENIED.
No Disturbance Of Order in Montene-
oro-Political Agitation.

CETTINJE, Montenegro. May 1.-The au-
thorities here declare that the Vienna re-
ports of a grave political crisis In Monte
negro are exaggerated. They add that
apart from the street fighting at Podgoritza.
in which several persons were Killed or
wounded and the militia were called out
TO suppress the disorder. and the destruc-
tion of the Offices OF a radical newspaper
at Nikshttch, there has been no disturbance
of order and no rising of the clans.
II Is admitted, however. that there is con-
siderable political agitation in Montenegro
in consequence of Prince Nicholas keeping
the Tomanoytcs cabinet In power In spits
OF the fact that II is not supported by the
majority in parliament.
Parliament was prorogued for three months
O week ago because the deputies obstructed
all the government business and the MEN,
bers of the opposihtion are taking advantage
of the recess to advocate q more constitu-
tIonal government Prince Nicholas prob
ably will compromise with the opposition
by the appointment OF a coalition ministry
with which parliament will be able to work.

COL. HODGES PROMOTED.
Fills Vacancy Caused by Gen. Bulbs
Retirement.

Col. Charles L. Hodges. commanding the
Path Infantry (colored), in the Philippines.
has been appointed brigadier general in
the army to fill the vacancy in the list
caused by the statutory retirement Of
Brig. Gen. John w. Bubb. recently in COM
mand Of the Department Of Dakota. at St
Paul.
Gen. Hodges is from Rhode Island. and
Is one Of the few remaining veterans Of the
war Of the rebellion still In active service.
He was private. corporal and sergeant In
the 65th New York Volunteer Infantry from
August 1861, to July. 1855. He afterward
served in the ranks Of the regular army
until January. 1875, when he was appointed
second lieutenant Of the 25th Infantry, and
continued in that regiment until July. 1900.
when he was promoted to major and trans
ferred to the 17th Infantry. In August,
1903, he was transferred to the 23d Infan-
try and continued with that regiment until
he was appointed colonel Of the oath In
fantry In January last, since which time he
has been on duty in the Philippines.
Although not finally settled. It is probable
that Gen. Hodges will remain in the Phil
ippines in a command commensurate with
his rank, and he may be assigned to the
command of one Of the military depart
ments.
