More appeals for the adjustment
Of compulsory medical examination
and the teaching of sex hygiene in
the public schools of San Francisco

Rights League of America to Mayor
Rolph and to Superintendent of
SCHOOLS Roncovieri. Letters sent to
these officials urge action during the
summer vacation, in order that the
start of the fall term will see these
two institutions e~radicated.
The mayor Is asked to use his in
~fluence to establish free medical
centers for those who wish examin-
alton OF treatment. but to do away
with the tyrannical system now in
vogue and allow parents some voice
as to when, where and by whom their
little ones are to be examined for
real or imaginary bodily ills"
The league asks Superintendent

teaching of sex hygiene in any of
the eity's public schools.

efts. When he saw a collision was
inevitable the captain ordered the
boat full speed astern. The order
was executed SO promptly from a
dead stop that the great ship leaped
backwards like a thing alive.
The German boat had reversed her
engines, but this had been done too
late to prevent a crash and she
struck the New York about fifty feet
abaft the stem. The New York reel
ed slightly. but recovered her even
keel when the Pretoria, backing out
at the request of Captain Roberts.
swung around until she lay along
side the New York.
First Officer Turner and Purser
Mathews by this time had learned
the exact nature of the damage and
we're assuring the passengers that
the ship was safe. There was no
panic, although tense excitement
prevailed until the officers and crew
had succeeded in assuring the pas
sengers that the ship was in no dan
ger of sinking.
Where the prov of the Pretoria
and the flukes of her anchor ore
into the New York, the great steel
plates were twisted like SO much
tin. The ffve-ton anchor was driv-
en- SO far into the side of the New
York that only the shaft and a few
links of its huge chain showed out
side the hole.
All the officers of the New York
were constantly on duty from the
time OF the collision until the steam
er locked.
Although Captain Roberts for
twelve years has run the New York
back and forth across the Atlantic,
this was the first time he v e dock
ed his vessel in a damaged condi-
ton.

Administration VIII Push Antitrust
Legislation

Legislation
With virtually all hope for an
early adjournment of congress aban
Goned, Democratic leaders in the
senate will push to completion the
administrations program of antitrust
legislation. This course was planned
as the result of a conference between
President Wilson and leaders among
the senate Democrats at the White
House at which the legislation the
president wants enacted before adj
journment of congress was discussed.
The only measures OF the pro-
gram, the enactment of which will
be insited upon. are the antitrust
bills already passed by the house, or
similar measures.
1t was generally agreed at the
conference that congress should be
kept in session until the antitrust
program is put through. despite the
anxiety in congress for an early adj
journment. The president, in out
lining his position, told the senators
that while he also was axious for an
early adjournment, yet he strongly
felt that the antitrust program should
be enacted during the present ses-
sion.
That rapid progress was being
made on the antitrust bills now I'M
der consideration by senate commit
tees was the report made to the pres
ident by the democratic leaders and
was generally conceded by Thea con-
ferees that there should be little diff
ficulty in getting these measures re-
ported to the senate and passed by
that body.
President Wilson's declaration that
despite what he characterized as a
deliberate campaign by certain inter-
ests for an adjournment of congress
and postponement of the administra-
tion's trust legislation program, he
would use every influence al his
command to get the pending bills
through the senate at this session.
continued to be the subject of wide
spread comment in congress.
1t was believed that the presi-
dents declaration would hasten ac-
ton on the antitrust measures in
the senate.

Cost of Lives in Panama Canal

In a letter to Hon. George NJ.
Young, Representative in Congress,
Col. Goethals states that from May.
1904, to March 1914, 1,219 lives
We're lost on the Panama Canal thru
accidents. This total covers only
those deaths which resulted from
accidents happening on the work,
except that 1t includes 1877 deaths
from accidental drowning, all of
which did not occur on the work.
From August, 1908. to March 1914,
the accidents resulting in injuries
reached a total of 25,101. Mr.. Young
called the attention of Congress to
the fact that the loss of life through
accidents as here recorded, was
greater than that during the wal of
1912, or during the Mexican war.

Railroads Perfect Prosperity
Conditions

Railroads Perfect Prosperity
Conditions
That railroads keep an a to the
ground and hear two months in adj
vance of the general public the gold
en-sandaled trend of approaching
prosperity raj declared by experts
In railroad circles who commented on
Ia curious prophecy of better times
found in Bulletin No. 81 of the bu-
reau of railway economics.
At the highest of several peaks of
what appears to be a section of the
Himalaya mountains, but what in
reality is a line on a graphic chart on
page No. 3 of the bulletin. is found
the evidence. 1t is nothing more o
less than a black dot, and 1t repre-
sents the highest point to which the
net revenue of the railroads of the
United States reached during last
March. This point In each of the
four great districts of the country is
higher than 1t was on the chain of
mathematicai mountains the year
before.
A line drawn from the dot show
ing the highest point reached by the
monthly net revenue per mile of line
for February of this year to the dot
of March shows a decided steep ac-
elivity, and to the railroad mind 1t
indicates that good times are on the
way.
Railroads, say experts, are the first
to feel an increase in business. They
notice the approaching wave about
two months ahead of the consumers
for the reason that they carry COM
modities about two months before
they are distributed to the individual
consumer.

Carelessness at Sea Not 10 be
Tolerated

C~arelessness on the part of the
vessel captains in the handling of
their craft will not be tolerated here
after by the Department of Com
merce. With the recent disasters of
the Empress of Ireland in the St.
Lawrence river and the old Domin-
ion liner Monroe off the coast of
Virginia still fresh in mind, Secre-
tary Redfield so indicated in a letter
to the head of the steamboat inspee-
ton service. calling attention to the
recent grounding of the passenger
steamer Iroquois in the Hudson riv-
er, for which the Captain of the
Iroquois is said to have received a
thirty days suspension of his license.
The secretary is convinced that the
punishments often melted out to yes
sci captains who are in accidents are
insufficient for the gravity of the
o~ffense.

be great assets Instead, they are money
made, money mad. and money married.
We men Of today must cease to fear
poverty for our children. Prudence and
foresight have deteriorated into covetous-
ness and cOwardice Let US give our sons
character and efficiency-even if the giving
takes half the time we now spend in money
maklng-and we may trust them anywhere
in the future and trust the future with
them. As we look about we see how the
loss Of many a mans fortune has really
been the making of his sons and daugh-
tiers. Shall we not bequeathe more life and
less money to our children? The old negro
slave who had eaten his masters poultry
made a philOsophc answer when he said.
'Nassa, yOuse got less chicken but youse
got more niger"
The choice between goods and God is
going on forever Jesus pointed out the
peril Of property; it has a tendency to blur
or blind the spiritual vision Would that
we might be consumed by such a hunger
and thirst after God himself as would de-
liver us from all lesser ambitions. G. H.
Morrison tersely gives the reason for this
longing for Cod 1--WE do not crave for
Cod because he Is glorious. We DO not
crave God because he is sovereign. We are
just homesicll, that is the meaning Of it
We crave for God because he is our home"
