French Race Suicide.

france had the smallest total of births

mol that that year was a particularly
bad one for children, but that succeae,va
years are becoming progressively more
unyelding IN little patriots is the prob
lem that confronts the French govern
ment There were 1860 living infants
born in France last year as contraated
with 750.651 in 1912. For a generation
there has been a steady fall in the
French birth rate. To show how real
this falling OF has been. there was an
annual average Of 945.OOO births during
the period from 1872 to 1875.
By 1905 the number Of births had
are now below 10000 This means that
in less than forty years French births
have diminished by more than 200 600
a year. It is true that the birth rate is
falling in all the large countries of Eu-
rope. but the French births are falling
off in far greater proportion. Comparing
the excess of births over deaths for
to the disadvantage of France. The fig
unes Of this proportion in France are
Is: 15S in Holland. 40 in Italy, 100 in,
Hungary. 27 in Germany, 1O7 in Aus
tria and 1O5 in England. These figures
are for 1912.
An accompanying phenomenon of pos
sibly some importance is that the num-
crease in France. In the last thirteen
years their number has more than
doubled. In 1913, 15.076 divorces were
recorded. or an increase of 600 over 1912.
Another interesting feature is that the
number Of remarriages Is growing.

DROWNED AT VERA CRUZ
Lieut.. Commander Arthur B. Keat-
ing Disappears From the q. s. S.
Arkansas.

Lieut. Commander Arthur B. Heating.
attached to the battleship Arkansas at
Vera Cruz disappeared from that vessel
drowned. according to a Telegram re-
ceived at the Navy Department from Rear
Admiral Badger. commanding the At
lantic fleet. Few details were given in
the official dispatch. It appeared that
Commander Keating fell from the deck
Of the ship into the sea and that despite
immediate steps to effect his rescue he
was not seen again. Unsuccessful efforts
were made to recover his body
Lieut.. Commander Heating was born
in Maryland and was native of Center
Vile. On the second day of the fighting
at vera Cruz, in April last. Lieut. Com
mander keating was placed at the head
Of the marines from the battleships
Florida and Arkansas. The marines had
reached the outskirts Of the city the day
before and taken possession of the CUSTOM
house. The day Lieut.. Commander Keat-
Ing led the forces the marines penetrated
to the center Of the city, while snipers
fired from housetops and through closed
shutters at the advancing force. The men
marched steadily on and took possession
Of the plaza in the heart Of the city.
Lieut.. Commander Heating was COM
mended to the government for signal
bravery during the Siege.
Faced Bullets in Philippines.
This engagement in the Mexican city
was not the first taste of rifle fire the
young Maryland naval officer had While
a lieutenant of the navy in the Philip
pines In the early part of the last decade
he led a landing party against guerrilla
foes on one Of the islands, forcing the
enemy to retreat from a position which
it had held for a long time and from
which it had harassed the American
forces.
He was with the fleet that went around
the world. He also was in charge of
the tug Pfscataqua when the mosquito
fleet made a trip from the Atlantic
coast to the Philippine Islands. His
years of service saw him on board the
battleships Connecticut. Kansas, Arkan-
sas and other ships.
Born in Centerville thirty-f1ve years
ago. he entered the Naval Academy, from
which he was graduated in the class of
1900. About eight years ago he was
married to Miss Lulu Beall, daughter of
Mrs. E. S. Beall. Besides his brothers
and wife, he leaves a son. Harry W.

Placing the Blame.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times
With vast satisfaction does each Of
the powers prove to itself that 1t is
the injured party. the victim Of ag-
gression by another, that it desires
peace above all, but is unwillingly
forced to self-defense. The ingenuity
that has been expended on these
Iabors before every war is as monu-
mental and as proftless as those of
the medieval schoolmen. History al
ways sweeps them aside and goes
unerringly to the real cause Of each
war, whether territorial lust. racial
feuds. or what not But with each new
war the useless endeavor begins again;
it is the recognition by an uneasy con-
science of the necessity for a decent
respect for the opinions Of mankind.

TO END WAR
FROM CHURCH PULP|TS
Special Invocations Form Features of
Episcopal and Catholic
Services.

Prayers to dispel the dark cloud Of
European war were offered on behalf of
the congregations Of the National Capital
from nearly every pulpit in the city yes
terday.
A special prayer for peace formed a
feature Of the observance Of mass in the
various Catholic churches. This was done
at the request Of Cardinal Gibbons.
Protection Of the United States from
the dread evil Of war and the opportunity
for this country to act as mediator In the
present struggle among the nations were
specially requested by Rev. James H.
Taylor, pastor Of the Central Presby-
terian Church, who today was assistant
officiating clergyman at the funeral Of
States. A similar appeal was offered by
the same pastor in the afternoon at Sec
ond Presbyterian Church.
A prayer sent out by the Bishop OF
Washington from his sick-bed in Garfield
Hospital was also offered in all churches
Of the Protestant Episcopal denomina-
ton.
Pastors Of Foreign Congregations.
Pastors of various foreign congrega-
tons throughout the city almost without
exception. offered prayers for the speedy
subsistence of the great struggle now
waging. Among them were those Of the
German Baptist Church. North Carolina

nounced that he will start a three-day
prayer in his church Thursday at 1880
o'clock to beseech God for the help OF all
Europe, and Italy especially.
AS has been the custom for ages among
people of that religion, there is a move
ment on foot among Jewish circles to
have a day set aside of fasting and
prayer for the peace of Europe.
Interpreting the present struggle as the
battle Of Armageddon. or the war Of the
nations prophesied in the Bible, which
will lead to the second coming of Christ.
Rev. R. e. Harter spoke last night at the
tent services at 1st and Randolph streets
northwest. Prof. s. NJ. Butler, who ad-
dressed the American Federation of Pa
triotic Societies at Pythian Temple, fol-
lowed the same line Of thought.
