moosers in congress heartily approve
the decision of the national executive
committee Of the progressive party to
place candidates in the field for the
senate and house of representatives
Aext year In all states where 1t Is be-
lieved there is any hope Of success.
The states in which the executive

be progressive candidates for the SEN
ate In 1914 are as follows:
California, Colorado, Illinois, Iowa,
Kansas, New Hampshire, Ohio, Ore

On account OF peculiar election law
in South Dakota it may be found neces-
sary to run progressive as an inde-
pendent, but the candidate Of neither
old party will be endorsed.
Among those present at the confer
ence of the two committees were Will
liam Finn Of Pittsburgh, George w.
Perkins of New York, Walter F. Brown

bull moose candidate for governor Of

Houston. Tex, Nov. 14.-No disorder

Just before the walkout went into
effect an offer of government media
tion was received at union head
quarters. The employees leaders re-
piled that the only possible way to
avoid a strike was for the railroad to
meet the federated committee Of the

SUPERVISED PLAY
PLAN ADVOCATED
HEAD OF NEW CHILD WELFARE
DEPARTMENT.. IN KANSAS
PUBLISHES HIS VIEWS.

Lawrence, Kas., Nov 14--It is
through the gaps between the home
and the school and the home and the
church that 80 many boys and girls
slip away to lifelong degredation," in
the opinion of Prof. William A. Nc
Keever, head of the new department
of child welfare in the university,
given in an address here today before
the Kansas conference of charities
and corrections. Prof. McKeever said
it was the clear duty of the community
to supervise and coordinete the work
developing the youthful mind done in
home, church, schools and other insti-
tutions. AS a solution Of the problem
he suggested that every community
in the state inaugurate a system of
supervised play and provision
whereby every growing child may par
ticipate in some form of industry dur
ing vacations between school terms"

SAVE THE BABIES
IS MADE A SLOGAN
STUDENT OF INFANT MORTALITY
POINTS OUT THE CAUSES OF
NUMBERLEss DEATHS.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 14-With
Saving the babies" as it's slogan the
American association for the study and
prevention of infant mortality met to-
day in its fourth annual convention.
DR.. J. w. Scherews of Washington,
D. c., declared that the most signifi-
cant phenomenon in connection with
infant mortality was the great increase
in death during summer months
"This increase" he said, can be ex-
planned by three hypothesis only. The
infants are killed; first, directly by the
heat; second. by the action of stale
and dirty milk and the contained bac-
terra, and, lastly, by specific infec-
tions."
Future activities for the preyen-
ton OF infant mortality, he said must
be concentrated to a greater extent
in conditions Of housing, especially
with respect to over-crowding, narrow
streets and ventilation.
