FAVORS TEACHING
OF SEX HYGIENE
Or. P. P. CIaxton Says Instruc.
ton Would Do Much Toward
NobIer Race.

Teaching Of sex hygiene and full
instruction in all matters of sex is
advocated by DR.. p. p. Claxton, Com
missioner of Education, as a means
toward stopping the annual recruit
ing Of 100000 young women into the
white slave army. instruction in
subjects of sex would tend toward the
production of a nobler, more perfect
race, and would to a large extent
stop the degradation Of those who
fall through ignorance, in the opinion
of the commissioner.
|. He declared today II thoroughly be-
lieve in instruction in sex subjects
in the schools. Parents cannot al
ways impart life's truths to the chill
dren as they SHOULD be told, either
from ignorance. or because of a wide-
spread prudery.
'The only question of sex instruc-

instruction as II should be, given. II
Is vastly important that such teach

thinking in the pupil, or a self-con-

Teachers of the subject should be
able to make friends of their pupils, and
tell the great story of life as a mother
would tell itif she knew the real and
proper method and was not bound by
the old bugaboo of prudery.

Wilson has decided 70 sign the sundry
civil bill, which exempts labor unions
and farmers' organisations from pros
ecution under an appropriation OF
100000 which It carries for the en-

the president will state actuated him
in deciding to sign the bill 10 that It
will really not prevent the department
Of justice from bringing antitrust
suits against labor unions and farm
err organisations which operate in re-
straint Of trade.
He will refer to an opinion which
has been handed him by Attorney Gen.

there are other considerable appro-

which can be used to support such ac-
tions brought by the government.
