FOR
ST0Rk PROPOSED
CORNELL PROFESSOR URGING IT
SANS THERE WILL BE NO
BABIES AFTER POTS.

st. Louis, Mo-. Dec. 31.-There will
be no children in the United States
under Ave years of age In the year
1920. Babies, accordingly, will have
disappeared from this country as
early as 2015.
This is the mathematical conclusion
OF Prof. Walter F. Wilcox Of Cornell
university, announced to the American
ing session here.
The only hope OF seeing babies In,
the United States after 1920. accord
ing to Professor Wilcox's calculation,
is in possible importation from
France. France, he says, will continue
to have babies eighty years after the
United States has quit.
There Is proportionately more race
suicide in the United States than IN
France" Professor Wilcox said.
Honor for Motherhood.
An endowment for the stork was
recommended to the American SOciO-
logical association by George Elliott
Howard. professor of sociology in the
University OF Nebraska In an address
on "The Social Control of Domestic
Relations" he said the state should
honor motherhood by endowing moth
ers Parents, who raise families, he
said, ARE entitled to payment and Sc
curity from the state the same as the
soldier, or the judge, Or any other
public servant. The woman who gives
child to the state should be allowed
an income by the state for taking care
of that child. That would make the
mother the ruler in the home. That
would be social Justice"

THE PANAMA LIBEL CASES.

The Tribune congratulatcs the New
York World most heartily upon its vic
tory in the so called Panama Canal libel
eases. The contention in behalf OF
the Government as insisted upon BY
(then) President Roosevelt, that the
Government had been libeled, and that
the ease WAS ono properly To be tried IN
the Fedora courts. is set aside. AS a
corollary of this il was insisted upon
at first in the Indianapolis News ease
that the editors could he taken TO
Washington for trial This contention
was overturned by the Supreme Court
of the United States, and now the same
court holds that if there was any libel
IT all in the publication made by the
New York World the ease must be
tried in the State courts. The libel
laws of the State of New York are
pronounced sufficient, and il is held
that the State courts afford all ncedtul
remedy.
And thus dissolves into thin air the
contention on the part of the Govern
ment which never ouGbt TO have been
entered upon. There was never any
reason why the Government should
consider itself libeled in the charges
as made. There was never tho slight,
est reason, especially since the noted
Dana case, to contend that the accused
could be removed to Washington or
elsewhere out of the jurisdiction of his
residence, and of the headquarters of
the publication, for trial The people
of the whole country are to be con
graduated upon this decision. rs it re
moves from any possibility of further
dispute a principle which. If il could
have been enforced, would have been
a deadly blow at the liberty Of the
press. For If every place of delivery
of newspaper could be held TO be a
fresh libel, any newspaper could be
worn out with prosecutions. even though
there were no actual libel or propcr
basis for prosecution. The Government
or an aggrieved individual could bring
endless suits in selected places, with
the prospective chance Of getting yer
diet from Jury that could have been
packed or where sentiment had been
manufactured injuriously against the
newspaper. 1t is fortunate outcome
for the people as well as for the news
papers that the Supreme Court sees TO
