CHILDRENpS SOCIETY
PREVENTS WEDDING
Sends Hayward Girl to
Bronx Home, Despite
Nuptial Agreement.

Charging that the Brooklyn Chill
dren's Society caused a six,een-year-
old girl to be committed to Z correc
tional institution and prevented the
marriage Of two young people, solely
to benefit through the imposing OF a
$500 fine upon the man concerned, Gil
bert II. Rhodes, lawyer. Of a. Court
street. will institute habeas corpus
proceedings for the release Of Miss
Emily Schildbach from the House of
Mercy. in The Bronx.
Arthur W. Towne. the surorintend-
ent. denied that the Chiidren'S Society
would benefit by the fine. lie refused
10 say. however, why the society, al
though two judges. the District Attor-
ney. the parents of the boy and girl
and the couple themselves We're anx-
ious to set matters right, refused to
give the necessary consent, and in
sisted upon the girl being sent to an
institution.
The case in many Of its details is
similar to that of Marguerite Nurtha,
who is now Mrs. Samuel Jacobson.
Last December the Brooklyn Childrcn''
Society fought hard. but Justice GotF
freed the girl so that she might be
married. As in the Murtha case. NJ isS
Schildbach is the daughter 90 family
Of moderate means. while tie young
man, Charles Straub, ike Jacobson
comes from a well-to-do family.
The Schildbach girl was arrested
several weeks ago by agents of the
Ch;ldren's Society, or the complaint
Of her stepmothcr. Mrs. Carl Schild-
bach, of 252 Stockholm Street. who
charged that she was a disordcrly
child. The charge grew out of love
affair with Straub. who is twenty-one
years old and lives at SIS Hancock
Street.
Young StrauD. whose father before
his death was we'll known Republican
politician and owned a string of sa-
looms IN Williamsburg, was on the
point Of telling his mother Of the ne
ceSsity of marriage when he learned
that his iiancee had been arrested. The
following day he was taken into Gus
tody. Arraigned before Judge Roy, he
asked permission 10 marry her.
District Attorney Cropsey made an
investigation and agreed to The wed
ding. Judge Roy then admitted the
youth 20 bail. In the mean time the
girl was arraigued before Justice vii

The statistics compiled by the Ma

show that In the first Ave months OF

were charged against automobiles.

That the increase In the number
Of fatal accidents from automobiles
Is the result OF the enforcement OF

opinion Of the Highways Protective
Society. which has consistently OPP
posed that enactment. This conclu-
sion Is denied by the Safety First So
ciety. and the quarrel may well be
left to these organizations until one
or the other produces evidence of the
soundness Of It's contention. But II
Is obvious that some general cause

that the authorities should adopt
