KANSAS TO SEE IF
PROHIBITION PAYS
United Press.

United Press.
LAWRENCE, Kan, March a.
Can Kansas be used as a shining ex-
ample to prove the contentious of
both the prohibitionists and the brew
ers? Is Kansas the happy, content
ed state the prohibtionists picture it?
Is prohibition failure, taxes high
and crimes rampant, as the United
Brewers association assert
To definitely settle the question as
to the welfare of the Jayhawker state,
Professor f F. Blackmar, head of the
department of sociology in the Uni
versity of Kansas, has been asked by
the international Temperance society
to investigate these conflicting state
ments.
Prof. Blackmar will find out how
much liquor is consumed in Kansas in
year. He will make study of the
relation of liquor, crime, insanity,
pauperism, imbeciity, dependent and
neglected children and to the depre-
citation Of labor power. A history of
the political and legal aspects OF pro-
hibition in Kansas, including the de-
cisions Of the courts, and the social
and educational past, will be laid be-
fore the anti-saloon element. The
assertion by the Brewers association
that prohibition lessons the demand
for the grain crop will be either dis
approved or substantiated.
Concerning the investigation, Prof.
Blackmar says:
Jealous advocates of both sides
often assert what they cannot prove
to be true. We shall find out the
exact status of these statements and
have available information as to the
welfare of Kansas"

PROBATIONARY DIVORCE
WAGED IN ILLINOIS

SPRINGFIELD, H., March a.
Probationary divorce and the legiti-
matizing of children born out of we'd
lock are two striking objects sought
by bills introduced in the Illinois leg
slature and considered likely to pass
during the present session.
Representative I. c. Buxton, of De-
catur, has a bill to empower courts
to grant tentative divorces which per-
init a married couple to live apart
for year and return to married
state any time during that year. At
the end of the year if they decide to
live apart permanently they can Sc
cure final decree from the courts.
Buxton's probationary divorce law
would modify the law passed two
years ago forbidding the remarriage
of divorced couples or either of them
within year after the decree and
making such marriage an act of adul-
tary.
Representative Geo. U. Lipschulch
OF Chicago, a physician, and Repre-
sentative John j. Gardner of Chicago,
a clerk in the municipal court, have
bills to give children born out of well
lock the right to apply to the courts
any time during its life for decree
giving it the name of the father and
comforting all rights that are accord
ed 'legaP children. This includes
patrimony and support. The bill
would give the mother of the child
authority to act for it during the first
five years of its life.
A radical abandonment act also
may be introduced making abandon
ment an extraditable offense. Some
legislators are considering a bill to
make the amount deserving husband
or father must pay for the support
Of his wife or children variable based
on the amount Of his income

Among the things possible, which
will help Alamosa most, are stand
ardizing the Rio Grande railroad from
the San Luis valley, via any Of the
possible routes into the San Juan ba-
sin and the construction of good
state highway over Cumbres, which
would not antagonize Del Norte and
Monte Vista. AS the price of coal
in Alamosa depreciates the real value
of the city's realty at least forty per
cent, it is desirable TO reach the coal
fields of the San Juan basin, over a
standard guage road, which should
make it possible to lay good coal down
