Eureka Man Gives X. q. 81, 900
to Wage Campaign.
Statewide Movement Against
Cigarette Smoking.

| Lawrence. Kan, June 3.-John N.
Edwards OF Eureka, Kan. an ahmnus
Of the University of Kansas. has offered
VIM. "A. McKeever, professor In child
welfare in the extension division,
$1,000 to be used in a statewide cam
paien for better enforcement Of the
anti-cigarette law.
Mr.. Edwards is one of the most ex-
tensive land owners and fine cattle
| breeders of Kansas. He was a mem
Der of the legislature for several terms
and is the author of the radical anti
cigarette law now on the statute
books. It was chiefly through his
influence that this law was enacted. in
spite of the fact that the tobacco trust
had put up $4,000 in cash to be used
in bringing about the defeat of the
measure.
For many years past I have been.
making a special study OF the cigar
cite, and 1 am satisfied that it is by
far the greatest menace now related
to the Life of the American school
boy" said Professor McKeever today.
Its victims are numbered by the mil
lions. Kansas is more nearly free
from this blight than practically all
the other states, but it is very bad In
some places. In not a few of the
towns the law Is almost wholly fg-
are at a low ebb of efficiency. In
other communities the law is we'll en-
forced.
Plan to Combat Evil
What we hope to do is to devise
ways and means whereby all the cities
and smaller communities may wage
an effective warfare against the cigar
cite evil and drive it out of the state.
Practically all good citizens are a unit
in their adverse opinion regarding the
cigarette but they have no we'll
lthought-out plan for combating it.
1T is our purpose to begin in the
coming school year an extensive in
quiry into local conditions and to fol-
low this with a vigorous campaign of
opposition and suppression We feel
certain that this effort can be made
to appeal favorabIy to all who are
interested in the conservation of boy
hood and in human efficiency. Many
business men and firms are already
closing the doors of employment
against boys and young men who use
cigarettes, and we expect that many
more will do so.'
