DIR. Thomas M. Ballot, dsan Of tie

Foster of Reed college, Oregon, and
DR.. Hugh Cabot of Harvard university
spoke on the subject Of instruction for
teachers and preparation Of tsxt books
in sex courses. Attention was called
especially to the report Of ths Amsri-
can federation for sex hygiene which
favors the use Of nature stsdy and
biology as medium for sex instrse-
tion and which opposes instruction IN
the schools by sex specialists. It was
argued that specialists not txaimsd y
teach children could not satiszaetofily
go into the details necessary without
possibility Of offending sensitive No
lures of the children. On tAs othss
hand, it was pointed out, teachers sps-
cially trained in sex hygiene eosA,
with their knowledge Of instructiea,

somewhat delicate task.

CITIES COMBINE TO PRE-
VENT LOSS BY FLOODS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 27.-
Data gathered by the local chamber
If commerce for its special commit
tee on flood prevention shows that i'll
many cities stricken by the floods of
last March steps have been taken to
prevent repetition of the disasters.
A dogged determination was shown
in the replies to the chambers quer-
les to wipe out all danger of such
floods at any cost.
This was the spirit evinced in the
Dayton and the Columbus replies and
the officials of these two cities ap-
parently believe that they would get
the bond issues to back up the pre-
vention plans. John Basel, general
secretary of the Columbus chamber
of commerce said:
"When these plans are received it
is the purpose of the city to vote
bond issue, and, no matter what the
cost may be, meet for all time the
issue that will present itself. We will
not continue with such menace con-
fronting the city. In this mind the
people stand as unit"
Edward A. Deeds, member of the
Dayton flood prevention committee,
wrote: "The Morgan Engineering
company has been at work three
months in the field making com
plete survey. They have Instructions
to prepare complete plans which will
guarantee our city against another
disaster, and expect to have within a
year the plans complete and the work
started"
Hamilton, o., which lost over 100
lives and over $9,O00,OOO in property,
reported through C. r. Greer, secre-
tary of the citizens relief commit
tee, that survey is being made and
plans are in view "that will be an alb
solute guaranty against second in
undation."
"The question of issuing bonds"
said Greer, will be submitted to the
voters of Butler county with the least
possible delay. We have no doubt the
bonds will be authorized and the work
promptly begun"
Brookville, Ind, was almost the
only town that reported little or no
steps toward permanent relief. This
place was seriously damaged by the
flood and nearly score of lives lost.
Its business men were reported they
were contemplating asking for state
aid. Cairo and Evansville reported
that levees were being repaired to
the point where danger of future mum
dations would be practically mill. Also
Cleveland, Cincinnati and Indianapo-
lis, in which the property loss last
March was heavy, reported active
campaigns for permanent relief from
floods.

As the court was opening Ameri-

in interfering because the incident
was unprecedented in Canada.
Thaw's lawyer, Shertcliffe, asked a

Thaw rearrested on charge of en-

New York states lawyers wanted

EASTERN SUFFS. KEEP
CONGRESSMEN BUSY

United Press
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 27.-
Connecticut suffragettes are clogging
the mails between here and the Nut
meg state. They are bombarding
Connecticut congressman with letters
and petitions in behalf of the "cause." "
Defeated in their state suffrage fight,
the Connecticut women are in the fore
front of the campaign to tack suf-
frage amendment on the federal con-
stitution.
Repre- sentative Donovan of South
Norwalk. Conn, is the special target
for the Connecticut suffragettes. He
receives anywhere from fifty to 100
letters daily from equal rights con-
stituents, although he is taking rank
with Representative ]. Thomas Heflin
of Alabama as an "anti."
Answering his suffragette letters is
one of Donovan's longest, hardest and
yet most enjoyable tasks. He de-
lights in plagueing the suffragettes.
He Jolliess' the pro-suffrage corre-
spondents, deftly turns their argu-
ments into opposition propaganda, and
invariably winds up his letters by
telling that that nine-tenths Of the
Connecticut women, in his opinion are
antis He admits he has no argu-
ment except the prejudice Of old time
conventions and customs against Civ
ing the women the vote-hence the
"jollying" in his letters.
