An article in a recent number of the
Review of Reviews by DIR. Cronin on
1.-THE Doctor in the Public School," up
holding small families, has drawn from
President Roosevelt letter to DIR. Shaw,
editor of the Review of Reviews, protest
ing against such teaching. DIR. Cronin
makes the statement that physical defects
go hand in hand with large families,
whether of the rich or Of the poor, but
this the president says is not true. In
proof OF his position the president points
out the fact that athletes are most apt
to be found in fair-sized families, and he
points to the vital statistics of Massa-
chusetts showing that the average Amer
lean family has so few children that the
birth rate has fallen below the death
rate. He reiterates his belief that tie
tendency of well-to-do families to die
out means the elimination instead of the
survival of the fittest, and he declares
that our country could not continue to
exist IL it paid heed to the expressed or
implied teachings of such articles, which
furnish excuse for every unnatural pre-
vention of child bearing, and for every
form of gross and shallow selfishness in
American social life.

Later details of the bond robbery Of
the Trust Company Of America came to
light through the examination of Loan
Clerk Douglass confederate, Broker Dem
nett. 1t was found that the actual value
of the bonds taken was not less than
100000. and that Douglass had laid
aside 100000 more for convenient abb
straction on the morning that suspicion
caused his sudden departure. Douglass
and his associates had raised about $780,
600 In cash and loans on the stolen col
lateral. II was admitted by the trust
company officials that they had paid out
S16S.0O0 to recover most of the bonds
which had been placed with various brok-
ers, and that the actual loss would be
$4,000, considering the $4,000 bond of
the loan clerk. The effort to connect a
prominent Boston man with the deal was
not successful, although 1t was believed
that third party assisted in the nego-
tiations.
