ARREST MAY FOLLOW
D|ETz INQUEST TODAY
Wife of Slain Tailor Employs
CounseI-Nurnbe Her
Friend, Held.

CHICAGO, April 17-Members of the
police department planned rapid worl
today in the investigation in the murder
of George Dietz womans tailor, found
slain in his home last Monday. George
Nurnberg, harness maker. whose
friendship for Mrs. Dietz has been dis
closed. according 10 the police, is being
held and Mrs Dietz's home is guarded
by detectives. Coroner Hoffman expects
to conclude the inquest today. while Off
Gals, it is said, plan to make an i'm
portant arrest after the coroner's jury
has returned it's verdict.
The coroner's action in holding the in
quest today instead of April a. the date
at first set is said to be due to the de-
mand of the police, who are anxious to
hold several suspects now either in GUS
tody or under surveillance.
Mrs. Dietz has employed an attorney
and planned to confer with him before
the close of the day. She will be given
an opportunity to tell her story to the
coroners jury according to the present
plans Early in the day, following a visit
by Lieut.. Ernest Mueller to the Summer
dale station. where Nurnberg is held. 1T
was rumored that the handkerchief which
was tied to the heavy hammer found in
Dietzs bedroom had been identified by
the prisoner. Lieut. Mueller refused to
discuss the report.
Added interest was given to the inquest
when Coroner HOFFMAN announced that
Mrs. Nurnberg had been added to the list
of witnesses. Attorneys retained by
friends of the prisoners tried i'm vain to
get in communication with Nurnberg be-
fore the inquest. Visits to half a dozen
police stations were futile, the officers in
charge OF each stating that the harness
maker was not in their keeping.

will be bestowed upon this particular

meeting of the prisoners was held. word
of action being passed from cell to
cell, and the hunger strike declared.
Some of the prisoners are striking for
better food, while others are striking
for liberty.

Parental Cooperation Needed.

Miss Gardner said that when the
mothers sense Of responsibility, and her
power of supervision shall no longer end
at the front door, or at the back gate,
childhood will have gained its most pow
erful protector and vice will have with
drawn from the family altar.
Asserting that 1t was not fair to throw
this entire burden on the men, she de-
ciared: Il have little patience with the
shrinking sisterhood opposed to woman
suffrage, WREN they insist that they do
not want civic duties thrust upon them.
They do not want the burden of help
ing the fathers to rid political and So
cial life of the wrongs and advices and
dangers that beset the developing boy
and girl at every step, the moment they
pass outside the walls of home. They
do not want to help o.make the world
better and safer place for children to
live in They object to the heavy, added
burden of care and responsibility. They
want to just stay at home and nurse
the little ones and care for the ailing. !"
That women should stop Sinking their
political duties and should aid in improv-
ing the conditions outside the home for
their children was pointed out by Miss
Gardner. She said men and women
must stand together if the world was to
make DrOgreSS.

Work Comprehends Negro.

Mrs. Bruce declared there was no ques-
ton considered by man that did not COM
prehend the negro, and spoke of the de-
mand for Kidding the towns and cities of
cheap dance halls and other places of
amusement as one of the first steps in
the uplift of the negro.
Laying the blame upon moving picture
plays for the numerous children who are
brought before the juvenile courts every
year on various crimes, Miss Kate Davis
pointed out the urgent need Of strict
censorship Of all moving picture films.
After detailing at some length the
pictures which she had seen during her
| Investigations, and which depicted crime
in almost every conceivable way, she
gave specific instances where the COM
mission of crime oy children was trace
able to the moving picture drama. In
one Pennsylvania city where a certain
robber film was being shown, she de-
clared, twenty-three boys were under ar
rest for petty burglarieS
These boys" she went on were aged
from ten to sixteen years and We're regu-
lar patrons Of moving picture theaters.'
The speaker pointed to many we'll known
| crimes which were traced directly to NOV
ing pictures
Vicious Ideas From Movies"
Miss Davis told how Judge Ben Lindsey
found a number of girl burglars in Dem
ver Col, this year. Their ages ranged
from eight to twelve. They told Judge
Lindsey the speaker explained. that
when they did not know how to commit
a crime they went to the movies and
studied the films until they got the idea"
Referring to Washington as a place
which sis supposed to have reasonably
good system of municipal regulation.
Miss Davis told of how a melOdrama wit
messed by two children was responsible

Senator Sherman's Views.

Senator Sherman caused much laughter
most thou persuadeth me to be a suf-
fragette." He declared there was moth
ing revolutionary about the woman suf-
frage movement, and that he was per-
fectly willing to have their cooperation
at the polls. In the legislative bodies and
elsewhere. They would make the men
behave themselves he continued "Out
in my country the men campaign with
the ladies as much as they do with the
men. They do this not because they
vote, but because they control the people
who do vote. Every woman controls
one or more men,"
child question, he declared 1t could not be
solved until women had something to do
with it's solution. We've been Obliged
to call upon the women for help" he
said.
The senator declared that there was
nothing as cheap in the world today as
human life. He said the government
property, but for the protection of per-
sons and that the protection of prop
erty was secondary matter. After
telling of the increased tendency to
separate domestic relations, which
caused many little children to be thrown
upon their own resources at tender ages.
he declared it was the first duty of the
government to give the little fellow a
chance in the world. He expressed his
sorrow at having to confess that it
has not done so and said that the gov
eminent is sadly deficient that does
not give the unfortunate children a
chance with other children of the COM
munity. He declared, however. that the
care of dependent children was primarily
a state undertaking.
