Is Birth Restriction Justified?

IN the powerful and moving play. War
! Brides now running in New York Nazi-
nova, the heroine makes an eloquent plea
against the cult of marrying girls to soldiers
about TO go to the front. in order to provide
for future generation to take the place of
the gaps made in the fring line.
War Brides is something more than
play; it is in the nature of defiance TO the
| antirace-suicide propaganda once so noise
worthy, and which had the distinction of pos
sessing Colonel Roosevelt as leading advo-
cate. That women should strike against
motherhood is the argument of the play, and
by doing end the supply Of cannon food
This Is going 10 an extreme, of course
Yet the crowded condition Of Europe, which
is unauestionably one of the chief causes of
the present war, is the best argument ever
advanced for birth restriction. 1t is urged
by the antirace-sucidsts that man performs
a patriotic function by bringing another man
into the world to replace him, and thereby
keep up the national strength. Vet that son
would take the place Of some other man. and
Interfere with his chance of making a good
living. Indeed, In this hour of horror we
may be thankful for the unborn. for IL the
population of Europe greater still the
tragedy. which is now colossal, would become
imagination staggering. II the war god
ceases from his feast, il may be only beca use
! there are no more victims TO be devoured
Granted an unlimited supply Of men, and how
To- 8 might the war not last.
All this is no reproach to the holy state of
fathcrhood. But it is in justification of
bac helorhood Bachelors have been ma ligned
in recent years; laws have been passed to
harass them, II they we're among those
things 20 be discouraged and prohibited
But much is To be said on the side of those

TEMPORARY BRIDGE
ACROSS MAIN STREET
DONE BY NOV. Is

Work on the temporary bridge at
Main street will be completed by
Thanksgiving. although the bridge will
not be ready for traffic then. Contrac.
tor Smith agreed to complete the struc.
ture on that day. He said today that
he will carry out his promise. The
approaches to the bridge, however,
will not be ready for ten days after
the completion of the structural work.
John Duke. who was given the con.
tract for the approaches. is allowed
ten days after the completion of the
bridge proper to get the approaches
TO the bridge in condition for traffic.
The traction company's work is pro-
crossing rapidly and not more than a
day will be required to lay the track
across the bridge and leading to the
bridge. as soon as the other work is
completed. The work Of driving piling
will be completed by the end of the
week, said Mr.. Smith, and only two or
three days will be required for putting
the finishing touches on the floor sur

CALL MEETING
TO CRySTALIzE
DRY SENTIMENT
Local Leaders Fall in Line
With State Movement to
Drive Liquor Traffic From
Indiana.

A county convention to crystalize
sentiment OF temperance forces in con-
junction with the statewide activity
to secure the adoption of laws pro
hibiting the sale of liquor in Indiana
and in the nation, will be held in
Richmond probably before the end OF
January, s. Edgar Nicholson, editor OF
The American Friend. said today.
The convention here will be the re-
suit of the program decided upon and
outlined at the omni-parttsan temper
ance convention which closed two
days session last night in Tomlinson
Hall in Indianapolis. Mr.. Nicholson
was chairman of the committee which
drafted resolutions declaring against
the sale of liquor and adopted by the
convention.
The date of the convention has not
been selected as no conferences rela'
tive to the subject has been held by
advocates of prohibition in Richmond.
1t is probable, Mr.. Nicholson said, that
the meeting will be held about the
time that the board Of trustees OF the
Indiana Anti-Saloon league meet In
annual session in Indianapolis in jan
board Of trustees are Timothy Nichol-
son, president, Rev. C. Huber. Rev.
L. E. Murray and S. e. Nicholson.
Effect Still In Doubt.
1.-The effect of the meeting remains
to be SEEN" said Mr.. Nicholson, but
the manifestation Of such hearty CO.
operation warrants the belief that In
diana will make a good showing"
Reorganization for the county con-
vention will be perfected. We hope
the Richmond sentiment will be as
great as that expressed in other coun-
ty conventions this winter"
The fight to be made against the
liquor trafic by the Indiana prohibit
,ionists will be non.partisan according
to the resolutions adopted at the clos
ing session.
The recommendation Of Frank j.
Hanly. former governor of Indiana,
that the Prohibition forces make the
liquor question a political issue was
fatty overruled by the convention. In
substance, the resolutions declare the
liquor traffic as outlived its genera
ton and no law other than greed calls
on all citizens regardless Of party"
are contained in the resolution for thu
purpose of doing away with the traffic.

Thirty.seven new members Of the

SHORTAGE OF CARS
!. CONFRONTS SHIPPERS

A serious shortage Of freight cars
exists on all branches Of the Penn
sylvaniA, due to heavy shipments for
Thanksgiving and Christmas trade.
Merchants are being notified to or
der cars IN advance II they wish to
ship merchandise. Unless they do 90
they will have to wait for an indefinite
period, for cars are hard to get, and
no promises are being made by the
company ~ to when they can be Sc
cured. unless advance orders are plac-
ed. Every effort is being made by the
local office to keep up the supply Of
empties, but it is having trouble for
every city on the system Is clamoring
for cars. Freight traffic is much heav-
Ter than was anticipated. and every
car is being moved as rapidly as pos
sible in order to relieve the situation,
but instead Of improving 1t appears to
be growing worse.

LANE EXAMINES
BODY OF SUICIDE

Clarence Lane of this city went to
Burlington today to try to identity the
body of the man found dead in a corn
field seven miles south of.Logansport,
as that of his brother who disappeared
some time ago. Nearly all the flesh
had rotted off the body and this makes
Identification difficult. Lane stated
that the description Of the man tallies
with that of his brother. Whether
the body was identified by Lane is
not known
