WOMEN ARE LEARN
ING The ROPES
Mrs. Albion Fellows Bacon Tells How
to Get Measures Through
the Legislature.
[By Associated Press. ]

/
Boston, Mass. June 9-That women
,are beginning to learn the ropes in
getting laws through state legislatures
was demonstrated before the section
on Housing, Health and Recreation"
of the National Conference of Char
/ tiles and Correction here this morn
ing by Mrs. Albion FELLOWS Bacon, of
Evansville, Ind, who has become
known all over the country as the
author of Indiana's housing law.
Mrs. Bacon said in part:
When the legislature opens and the
t'Pibrock of Dhonii Dhu knels for the
onset when you see the blank look on
I some of the faces of the members
when you approach them on housing,
! you are apt TO think, Why didn't
get in more work on the members Of
the legislature themselves before it
began? Why didn't ! send these sto-
! ries and pamphlets to them in their
homes before they were bewildered
and worn out and under the party
! lash? Too late then, to put your pic.
lures and letters on their desks all
you can do is to use a gatling gun
or steam roller.
I'm legislative campaigns it is adj
visable to study the methods of sue
cessful politicians. Get the prominent
men of both parties on your side;
Especially the party in power. Get all
! the pledges you can before elections
and afterwards. You will need in
fluence with the legislature leaders
and with the speaker of the house and
the president of the senate, for you
will have very little show II they are
not with you. If there is boss who
can be converted to noble ends your
work will be simple"
Mrs. Bacon outlined the campaign
as carried out in Indiana to secure a
law prohibiting the building of i'm
proper tenementS In the larger towns
and cities in the state and concluded
that housing reform can never be won
without hard work and practical meth
DDS.
1.-TWO things are needed in every
state" said Mrs. Bacon. One is the
faith of the prophet In Indiana we
count our success due 10 our prayers
more than to our hard work. The
other is the vision of the prophet-a
vision of the filth and sin, the 'abomi-
nation of desolation' of our cities, and
above that, vision of the City of
Shining Beauty where there is no sick
ness nor crime nor contagion, where
the streets are clean and it is always
light"

DR.. Calvin S. White of the State
Health Board arrived in our city
last Wednesday evening to look into
the smallpox situation. He exam
ined several of the cases and pro-
nounced it smallpox in very mild
form, or variloid. He made DR.. R.
D. Burgess Deputy State Health
Officer with full authority to en-
force quarantine either in this city
or in the surrounding country. He
met with the city Council and the
School Board, and endorsed the
action taken by them for the pre-
vention of the spread of the disease.
He recommended that the schools
be opened Monday and every teacher
and pupil attending be required to
be vaccinated. DR.. White stated
that vaccination was the only abb
solute preventative for the spread
of the disease, and that there was
no more danger in being vacclnated
than in cutting your finger. The
modern method of vaccination is
entirely different from that prac-
ticed fifteen or twenty years ago,
and is entirely safe and sanitary.
He further recommended that
where people were so poor that they
could not afford to have their child
rem vaccinated, that they be vacci-
mated at the expense of the school
disrtict or the city. He went fur
ther and described how vaccine,
which is used in vaccination, was
prepared, and its effect on the
patient when used. He went into
details regarding the horrible effects
OF smallpox when allowed to spread
and become virulent. We believe
all who heard him will be an
advocate for the cause of vaccina-
tion.
