TO SEGREGATE DETECTIVES
Michigan Woman Experts Say
It's the Ideal Solution.

Adele McKinnie. who is conducting an
investigation of the extent and causes OF
feeble mindedness and epilepsy in Michi-
gan, under the direction of the State Board
Of Health, has an article on "Eugenlcs
Work in Michigan" in the current number
Of Public Health. Public Health is d
quarterly sent out by the Michigan Health
Department for the general dissemination
of sanitary knowledge.
Miss McKinne says that IN the eight
states where laws exist for preventing the
marriage of detectives they have proved
to be Inadequate measures. Reports from
institutions for the care of epieptics in
Kansas Zone Of the eight states having
such laws show that not only is tho law
not enforced. but there is often difficulty
in detecting sub-normaity.
Segregation for all feeble-mindCd persons
and epileptics is the ideal solution, Miss
McKinnie believes She says that the OBJ
lection raised Of expense involved is a
fallacious one, since the initial expense Is
no larger than the cost to society II such
people at present. to say nothing of their
progeny.
Through segregation the number Of
criminals the number of prisoners, the
cost of trials, the demand upon public and
private charity might be greatly dimn-
Isuei. shc says.
Tho idea is advanced, too, that under
supervision perhaps nearly half Of these
people could hc made sclf-supporting in
Institutions. Miss McEinnc advocates the
putting into practice of Ir. Davenports

Richard Aldrich's Place.

There are more WAYS of giving than there

viSed her own favorite way Of bringing
happiness into the lives Of children. Ms.

Each nursery takes its turn and in that
way the children go with the nurses they

FRATERNAL ORDERS OF JEWS.
More Numerous, 1t Is Said, than
Those of Other People.

Morris - Waldman, the manager OF the
United Hebrew Charities. says in speaking
Of conditions among the Jewish poor III
the city of New York:
"FraternaI orders are vastly more hu-
merous among the Jews than among other
people There IS hardly "A self-respectlhs

none OF the strikers came TO the United

broad membership Of these fraternal or
ganizations may be largely the cause OF the
remarkable decrease in our number of ap-
plicants.

YOU take into consideration the fact that
I'm that same time the Jewish population Of
the city has about doubled.
while we have fewer persons actually
receiving help from us. the amount oil
money expended has not decreased. Ten
years ago many Of those who came 10 US
were only temporarily In hard luck ana
needed to be tided over their troubles lor
short time. To-day the rraternal orders
are doing 4 large part Of that work and the
people left for us to deal with are the
chronicallv helpless from one cause or
another So that instead OF a great many
cases. most Of whom need only little re-
lief we have fewer cases. most of whom
need help for longer period of time. The
increased cost of living makes itself felt
in larger demands upon charitable socie-
ties. too. We are not able to give adequate
relief as yet, but We are approaching II

As to what the United Hebrew Charities
