PRESIDENT WILSON FIRST INAUGURAL DEFINES DUTIES OF PEOPLE

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The in
augural address of Presiden. Wood
row Wilson is as follows:
There has been a change of govern
ment. It began two years ago, when
the House of Representatives became
Democratic by a decisive majority. 1t
has now been completed. The Senate
about to assemble will also be Demo-
cratic The Offices of President and
Vice-President have been put into the
hands of Democrats. What does the
change mean? That is the question
that is uppermost in our minds today.
That is the question | am going tc try
TO answer, in order, il | may, to inter-
pret the occasion.
IL means much more than the mere
success OF a party. The success of a
party means little except when the
nation is using that party for a large
and definite purpose. No one can mis-
take the purpose for which the ma
ton now seeks to use the Democratic
party. IL seeks to Use il to interpret
a change in its own plans and point
of view. Some old things with which
we had grown f.miliar and which
had begun to creep. into the very
habit of our thought and OF our lives
have altered their aspect as we have
latterly looked critically upon them
with fresh. awakened eyes: have
dropped their disguises and shown
themselves alien and sinister. Some
new things as we look .rankly upon
them. willing to comprehend their
real character. have come to assume
the aspect of things long believed in
and familiar. stun OF our own con-

we should either as organizers OF in

Society's Duty to Itself.
Nor have we studied and perfected
the means by which government may
be put at the service of humanity in
safeguarding the health OF the nation,
the health Of its men and its women
and its children, as well as their rights
in the struggle for existence. This is
no sentimental duty. The firm basis
of government is justice. not pity.

We have been proud of our industrial
achievements. but we have not hith-
erto stopped thoughtfully enough TO
count the human cost, the cost of lives

broken, the fearful physical and spir-
itual cost to the men and women and

to look into and scrutinize with can

ment we loved has too often been
made use of for private and selfish
purposes, and those who used IL had
forgotten the people.
Duty of Americans Outlined.
At last a vision has been vouchsafed
us of our life as a whole. We see the
bad with the good the debased and
decadent with the sound and vital.
With this vision we approach new af-

while we reared giant machinery which

Washington, April 30.-The United States government will have no au- thority over the conduct of the Fried mann institutes to be established in 36 states by the corporation which has purchased the right to use the culture.

INFANT DEATH RATE DROPS
Census Bureau Report Shows Great Reduction in Child Mortality
 in Recent Years.

Washington, April 30.-Figures showing the infant and child fortal- ity Of the census registration area of the United States for 1911, issued by Director Durand of the census bureau today. prove an encouraging falling off in the infant death rate since 1900. when the last census was taken The death rate for infants under one year of age was 112.9 per thousand, or about eight times the death rate at all ages, From one to four years the rate was 11.S per thousand and for the first five years 32.9 per thousand. The census shows that there has been a great reduction in the infant and child mortality of recent years, due, doubtless. to the persistent campaign which has been conducted against ig- norance in the care of children. The decrease in the death rate of infants under one year of age since 1900 was 19 per cent
