vantage of by great many people,
and we have never heard any unfa-
vorable reports of the home.''
J. Clifford Woodruff, who is a men,
Der of the property committee of the
Arthur home, and who has been lib,
eral contributor to the institution,
said:
"a trip to South America prevented
my visiting the home during the past
few months, but | am confident that
no such conditions exist or ever have
existed in the institution as published
in the New York papers,
MRS. Alden Is splendid woman
sincerely devoted to her work for the
aid of the blind babies. When such
men as Martin w. Littleton. of New
York, have such a high opinion of
Mrs. Alden as they have expressed
certainly my faith and confidence in
the lady cannot be shaken. Mr.. Lit
Teton Is counsel for the International
Sunshine Society. Now, mind you, 1t
Is possible that there may have been
mistakes made in the handling of the
homes finances, but such mistakes
IL any there are, In my belief are due
to q lack of modernized bookkeeping
'It would be strange, indeed, II
some errors have not crept in in the
financial handling of an organiza-
ton which has grown to such great
proportions in a few years.
Max J. Cotton. local health officer,
who made an inspection of the home
Monday, declared today that the SAN
itary condition of the institution
could not be better. He stated that
it would not be possible to have the
sanitary condition of the home in
such fine shape II bad conditions eX-
listed one week ago as reported.
The sleeping quarters of the help

children: that the proper place for
them was with their mothers. If the
parents were poor they could be as
sisted. but the very fact of placing
them in public institutions broke up
the family ties, the child losing its
love for the mother and the mother
for the child.
Regarding the Arthur Home for
Blind Babies at Summit, Mrs. Earle
said: 1.-THE home is not, according to
accounts, a desirable place for the
blind children She did not care to
repeat for publication the reliable re-
ports that had reached her of the
Irregularities allowed to take place
there.
David B. Mills, of 154 Upper Noun
tain avenue, Montclair, declared that
the Investigations being made were
the result of a political and per-
sonal row."
He said that the society can ac-
count for every dollar that 1t has re-
ceived and that the officers of the
society will make this plain at the
proper time.
misleading statements are being
circulated" continued Mr.. Mills,
(which would lead the public to be-
lieve that the society claims to have
spent over UlllllOn collars IN the
support of about thirty-five blind
babies in the Arthur Home. at Sum-
NIT, in few years, when in fact the
money was spent for the benefit of
the blind all over this county,
Regarding the Arthur Home, Mr..
Mills declared that "it was a model
institution; that DR.. English, ply
slcian of high standing, visited the
home every day, and was practically
a father to the children and they all
loved him. I know that he would
not allow anything to go on at the
and that he would not allow in
sanitary conditions to prevail"
Mr.. Mills, in a quiet way, dispenses
literally to charity and Is known to
have given many thousands of dol
lars to the international Sunshine So
ciety.

Senate Leaders Beginning
to Be Seriously Concerned
About Currency Bills

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-What to
do with the two currency refofm bills
now being completed by the two fac
tions of the Senate banking commit
tee has begun, to give serious concern
to Senate leaders. Both bills, one
representing the administration views
and the other the work of the Repub-
lican committee members and Sena
tor Hitchcock, probably will be ready
for the Senate before the end of this
week,
As the committee h. evenly divided,
there can be no formal report upon
the Glass bill, which passed the
House, and neither of the new bills
can be offered as substitute with
the Endorsement of a majority OF the
committee. Both factions of the COM
mittee are anxious to obtain what
ever advantage there is to be had
before the Senate, and 1t probably will
be agreed to submit the House bill
without a report and the two new
bills simultaneously, as amendments
Efforts will then be made by some
of the Republican members to have
the Senate consider tn currency bill
item by item, so that each side Will
have a chance to advance its amend
ments and have them voted upon as
the reading of the bill progresses in
the Senate.

Newarkers Deny Animus
in Opposition to Home
for the Blind at Summit

Those in Newark who were said
bv Mrs. Alden to be adverse critics
of the Arthur Home for Blind Babies
at Summit were Arthur C. McDougall,
of the Bureau of Associated Charities,
and Miss Cynthia Hayes, supervisor
for the New Jersey Commission for
the Blind.
Mr.. McDougall. when seen today
by O. reporter for the Evening Star.
stated that his opposition was with
out animus and was based largely on
the fact that the Arthur home was
being conducted by an out-of-the-
State corporation and was caring for
children from States other than New
Jersey.
Its methods of collecting funds also
brings from Mr.. McDougall an adj
verse criticism of the Sunshine So
cietv. He states that tagging" and
similar schemes take from Newark
and State charities more money which
otherwise would go to the charities
over which he has supervision.
Miss Hayes, who is blind and who
was one of the inspectors quoted in a
New York paper as having pro-
nounced the Arthur Home unsani-
tary, disagrees with the methods en-
ployed in the care of the children al
the home. 1t is her belief that blind
children should be taken care of In
the homes of their families or in Other
homes at the expense of the State.
Her visit to the home. on which hel
adverse report was rendered, was
made nearly, If not quite, year ago
according to her statement today
| She has not been at the home since
she says.
Miss Hayes also stated that the re
port was based in part on the obser
vations of her secretary.

Officials in Summit Back
Home Physicians Denial
of the Sunshine Charges

SUMMIT, Nov. 19--In an interview
today with DIR. David =. English,
visiting physician at the Arthur
home, DR.. English said:
II have been visiting physician to
the Arthur Home for more than four
wears. during that time rendering my
services gratuitously and visiting the
home nearly every day. Being inter-
ested in the institution, l naturally
very carefully observed the way in
which the home Is conducted and paid
especal attention to Its sanitary con-
ditions. No baby or child has ever
been neglected In any way in the
home to my knowledge, during the
wears that | have been connected
with it.
aWhen MIR. Deiffenbach visited the
home he did not see the separate
building we use as hospital at all.
tThere is no child in the institution
who can see well enough to do well In
any institution except one for the

Miss Hays says that in 1909 there
was no trained expert help, teachers
or nurses. This statement is abso-
lutely false.

'eThe mental condition of a blind

Brand WhitIOck Would Take
Cities from Legislative Control

DETROIT, Nov. 19.-Brand Whit
lock, for many years Independent
mayor of Toledo and now supposed
to be selected for diplomatic service
by President Wilson, told the Detroit
Board of Commerce yesterday that
large cities should be taken from the
control of State legislatures.
1.-THE American city was left out
of the Constitution when that docu-
ment was framed" he said. "In that
day the city had not become what it
is today. We need the human vote
and the civic spirit to make our cities
great. We need home rule. So long
as cities are governed by the pofiti-
cal bosses and rural legislators from
the outside they cannot get far

New Patent Medicine Scheme

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1s.-Investi-
CATION by the Department of Agrlcul-
ture has uncovered new trick by
patent medicine vendors, and the de-
partment today issued a warning II
the public against placing credence
in advertisements which philanthrop-
ically offer to send sufferers free
prescriptions that will prove pana-
ceas for whatever Is ailing them. In
each case the department investi-
gators discovered the principal in
gredient of the cure-all prescription
was some patent or proprietary drug
which. If the compounder did not
have in stock. he was compelled to
buy at considerable expense.
1.-THE government cannot reach
these people under either the food
and drugs act or the postal laws" the
department adds. because the
scheme is so planned as to evade gov
eminent laws. The deception and
Misrepresentation appear in adver-
tisements. circulars, letters, etc., sep
arate from the package and the med
lcines are seldom sent through the
mails"
