Chance FOR MILLIONAIRE TO
BUY A BATTLESHlP FOR SONG

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 10. -
old and obsolete battleships for a
lump sum In cash to a private indivi-
dual. lie held several conferences
with the prospective purchaser and
received an offer of SS,OOO.O00 for the
hattleship Indiana, Iowa and Massa-
chusctts, and the protected cruisers
Columbia and Minneapolis. All these
vessels participated in the naval en-
gagement at Santiago when the Span
sh fleet Of Ceryera was destroyed.
All are in good condition ana the bat
'leships were recently in line during
he parade at New York. But the
type is in disfavor and they are OFF,
Cially ready for the junk heap.
Under the existing law useless M
val vessels must be sold at public auc-
lion TO the highest bidder. In the
past the sums realized have been tri.
ding, but the statute is mandatory.
The five ships named would bring
virtually nothing il placed on the
block.
In the opinion Of Secretary Meyer
he can squeeze the price up ID $40
100000. If an opportunity Is given TO
complete the private sale. The APP
proval of Congress must be first OBJ
tanned, by an amendment to the pre-
sent laws. For that reason the Sec
rotary has said nothing about the con-
templatcd sale and It was regarded as
n profound secret He consulted with
Il number Of incoming Congressman
and hence the news leaked out, much
TO the discomfOrture ana regret of the
Secretary.
A determined effort will he made
during the present session OF Con-
gress TO secure such legislation as
will permit the sale OF the five war
ships at private hands. There will
be some opposition because of senti-
mental reasons, but as a business pro-
position ii will doubtless appeal to n
majority of the legislators.
The identity of the purchaser who
has 100000 in cash to pay for the
warships has not yet been disclosed.

The New York World of December

M'MANlGAL Was
SPIRITED away

Los ANGELES, Cal, Jan. 1-Ortie
f., McManigal, star witness against the
dynamters, Is en- route to indianapolis,
where he will testify before the Fed
eral grand jury. He was spirited away
tonight by Under Sheriff Brain and
Malcolm Mclaren of the Burns agency.
The utmost secrecy Is maintained as to
the route taken by the officers and
their prisoner. They hurried from the
County Jail in an automobile at $3.50
o'clock. and II Is believed from the di-
rection they took that they were bound
for the Arcade station, presumably
with the intention of taking the "Owl."
Further than to admit that McMan-
gal was being taken to indianapolis,
the under sheriff and Burns agent had
nothing to say. McManigal viii be
brought back here as soon as the Fed
eral grand jury In indianapolis Is
the East Is expected to be largely along
the lines of that given here, but may
throw additional light on explosions
there.
Although expecting to be arraigned
in the United States Court here tomor-
row ON the charge Of having been par
ties to national dynamite conspiracy,
three of the four labor leaders who
were indicted by the Federal grand jury
Saturday apparently enjoyed the New
Years holiday.

 Washington was not chosen by . convention of party, and when the convention system was proposed there were those who said that such a sys- tenn in earlier use might have de- prived the country of Washington.
 It is natural to cling to the bridge that carries one safe over, and some. thing of the same sort of argument may be applied to almost any event.
 Sailing vessels brought Columbus to San Domingo and the Puritans to Plymouth Rock, but this is no req son for opposing steam ships.
 Jackson made his journeys by stage coach, or on horseback, but the mod. ern Pullman has it's advantages.
 We are not concerned with what might have happened in 1860 when they did not have presidential primar- ies, but what will happen in 191z and hereafter, now that we do have them.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-05-18

Upon May IS, 1860, national con vention of the Republican party was held in Chicago. Seward was in the lead when the convention was called to order. but Lincoln received the termination. Seward was an aboli- tionist of the most profound type. Lincoln was a moderate. This caus- ed the defeat of the former. The electoral votes of New Jersey, Penn sylvania, Indiana and Illinois were necessary to the success of the Re- publican party, and the delegates from
 these states were certain that an ultra radical like Seward would be defeat ed There is some ground for sup posing that had the question been submitted to a direct primary Sew ard would have been nominated, be- ing much better known than Lincoln, and favorably. Upon this possibil- ity, for it was only that, some, op- ponents of the presidential primary rear an opposition, asserting that since the direct primary might have

MELBA, QUEEN OF SONG,
 WILL BE 40 TOMORROW

P Melba, Queen of song, the beautiful lady with the golden voice, was born on the nineteenth day of the merry month of May, and so, as little close figuring will prove, tomorrow will be her birthday. It was on May 19, 1863, according to some biographical works, in 1865, says another, and in 1866, asserts third. that Nellie Mitch. ell was born in Melbourne Australia. Her father was David Mitchell, a wealthy merchant and ranchman who was born in Scotland and went to to alluring Australia to seek his for tune-and found it. Her mother wa of Spanish descent. The future prima donna was christened Helen Porter. but she was universally called Nellie until she adopted the stage name of Melba, derived from the name of her native city of Melbourne.
 She was a precocious child. and be- gan the study of music at the age of three, and at six made. her public de- but in Melbourne. playing and sing ing before a large and delighted au- dience. It was Smells of the Ocean that Melba sang on that glorious occa-

SAVING MOTHERS AND BABIES Half the Births Unattended By Physicians Better Preparations Urged for Mdwives Train

shall be registered annually, be able to read and write. be of good moral character and clean person and have attended twenty cases of child birth under the supervision of licensed and registered physician. Details of equipment and restriction of practice are also stipulated. Although New York has taken these preliminary steps to remedy the bad conditions first disclosed by Miss Crowelrs re- port on the midwives of our largest city those familiar with the problem believe that only strict training of those practising this important pro- fession will adequately guard mothers and their babies
 Midwives should be permitted to att tend only. normal cases and should be obliged to call in a physician upon the appearance of any symptoms of abnormality. This seems that the greatest value of her service lies in giving humane and intelligent nurs- ing care to the mother and her in- fant during a period of from two to three weeks. Not only does the i'm mediate safety of the mother and the child depend upon intelligent care when the child is born but the fu- ture health and we'll being of both may be impaired or destroyed through ignorance or careless work.
 The plan to recognize, train and control midwives in this country is sometimes opposed by members of the medical profession who claim that the province of physicians would thus he invaded. This might be logical claim were we considering the inau- guration of a new and untried pro- lesson. But the midwife is here to stay. for it must be clearly recognized that the custom among the foreign born population of employing mid wives is deeply rooted, old world tradition. The midwife, moreover, is an economic necessity to those whom she attends for in most instances the patient is able to secure from her both medical attention and nursing care at a cost which seldom exceeds a doctors fee for medical attention alone. The midwife acts not only as a visiting nurse but as general ad- wiser and woman friend at a period which is fraught with anxiety. She frequently prepares the meal and gives aid which an attending physician could not attempt to offer.
 The training, registering and con- trol of midwives would not only raise the status of their profession but would have a reactionary effect upon those who are equally in the wrong at present-physicians who are care less and health officials who do not discharge their functions The com pulsory use of a prophylactic against ophthalmia neonatorun would thus be robbed of the danger which attends upon it's unskilled application.
 Through the efforts of the New York Committee on the Prevention of Blindness the first hospital training school for rni6wives has been started in connection with Bellevue Hospital and 1t is hoped that this example will be followed in other cities and in oth- CT states.

is one of the department lawyers. questions that come before the de- partment. McCabe long ago perceiv- ed that Wilson, to use a street term, was "easy,' and accordingly he be- gan to usurp powers and privileges which did not belong to him. and which it was never meant that he should have First this man McCabe began to hamper Dr. Wiley, who ad- mittedly was the most efficient pulp lie servant in Washington. McCabe so hampered and so harrassed Wiley that the latter, after nearly thirty years of faithful service, was driven from the government service.
 With Wiley gone. McCabe turned his talent to other directions. He then began to hamper the work of the meat inspectors, so that gradually, under a series of legal "interpreta- tions" of the intent of Congress in the matter of the pure food, law, he dragged down the standard of the meat inspection tests.
 Back of McCabe when he was ham, pering Wiley were the food dopers, and back of him when he lulled Will son into. suppressing the land report were the land sharks, and back of him now, in his efforts to kill the meat inspection law, is the beef trust.
 And back of McCabe and Wilson. with his solid, deaf bulk to give them all the protection they need, is Pres ident Taft.
