Democratic Committee Is
Unhappy Because Wilson
Appointed Its Officers

the committee should name that person.
In which case-they'n name him, but
they won't feel good about it.
"We are good sports" one member
said today. oven see the thing
through no matter what happens, but
we think the autumn prospects would
be better if our sportsmanship were not
taken advantage of.
owed like to have some say as to
who shall be our chairman. In other
words, we want someone we can work
with. "
If the committeeman had the say. the
chairman-elect would be Homer S. Cum
ings, of Connecticut, present vice
chairman and member of the committee
l2 years. They would suggest his name
to President Wilson, if he asked for
suggestions.
OF men outside the committee, many
committee men would prefer John
Davis, United States solicitor general,
above any other recently mentioned.
They say they could "worlt with "
Davis. Open hostility is shown toward
several who have been suggested. This
applies to Secretary McAdoO, Director
of the Mint Wooley and Trade Commits
siOner Davies.
The committee hopes to hold its rati.
fication as they call it on the presi-
dent s choice Immediately after the CON
vention not wishing to be called togeth-
er again a short time later for the sin
gle purpose Of electing a chairman as
has happened sometimes in the past.

UNITED Press staff correspondent
st Louis, Mo-, June 8.-The demo.
cratic national committee is an unhappy
organization, Judging by the two dozen
members here preparing for next
week S convention. The committee is
distressed over the action of President
Wilson in naming Ex-Governor Glynn,
Of New York, temporary chairman, and
Senator Ollie James, of Kentucky, per-
manent chairman of the convention. 1t
is even more distressed at the action
it fears he may take regarding the
chairmanship of the national committee
itself.
The committee men say they do not
object to the two men named -
though the member from Kentucky,
Urey WoodsOn, is James political en-
emy and some of the members sympa-
thize with WoOdsOn. Their objection is
to the fact that the committee was not
consulted. They had to depend on the
newspapers for the news they say, and
they ask: How .can they do the insidi
work of the democratic organization if
they aren t on the inside?"
They have some very definite views
as TO the sort Of man needed for the ma
tional chairmanship, but nobody has
asked for their views They expect
they say, to read one day soon, under
a Washington date line, that the presi-
dent has appointed somebody-that is,
that he has indicated his desire that

There was a general feeling among
the members of the Commercial club
at the meeting last evening that the
state fair board should be given en-

and especially the Commercial club in
celebrating the Fourth and making Il
an annual event. For this reason,
many were in favor of not having any
parades or special entertainment down
town ON the Fourth, but of giving the
support of all the citizens to the fair
board. The opinion was expressed that
il this coming event was a success at
the fair grounds, it might easily become
regular state celebration, Mr.. Roth
stated that word had been received
from several Of the nearby towns that
no local celebrations would be held and
that everybody was coming to the fair
grounds to assist in observing a holt
day.

WORTHY LOCAL CHARITY.

It should be regarded by everyone
in this community as happy prlvl-
lege to be able to contribute some
thing, however small the sum, to the
fund being gathered by the Woman's
Civic League of Donaldsonvllle for
the purpose of gladdening the hearts
of the poor children of Donaldson
Vile and vicinity with Christmasagifts.
The object Of this beautiful charity
is so commendable that it appeals at
once to every soul in which human
sympathy and love of childhood find
a habitation, and the mere sugges-
ton that the fund is as yet inadequate
for the accomplishment of the dis
tribution ,a1,of Doven upon the most
modest ana economical basis, ought
to be sufficient to arouse public IN
terest and stir the charitable I'M
pulses of the community to degree
that will insure the supplying OF the
deficit in short order.
The dolls and toys for the children
who may have no other reminder OF
the Joyous Christmas season must
be obtained within the coming week,
hence those of our people who have
not yet sent in their contributions
should do so at once.

DOLL AND TOY DISTRIBUTION
Santa Claus to Visit Poor Children
on Christmas Eve.

The third annual distribution of
dolls and toys under the auspices of
the Woman's Civic League of Dom
jacksonville will take place in the au-
ditorium of the high school Sunday
afternoon, Dec. "a, beginning at 8
o'clock jolly old Santa Claus will
be present in person to greet the kid
dies and distribute the gifts, and
there will be a beautiful Christmas
tree and all the other attractions so
dear to the childish heart at Christ
mas time
Invitations to participate in the
distribution will be issued to more
than one hundred children, and it is
safe to assume that nowhere will the
spirit of Christmas be more in evil
dence or a greater degree of happi-
ness and contentment be prevalent
than will be found in the vicinity of
the high school on Christmas eve.
Anyone who knows of children
whose parents may be temporarily
down and out" or who may possibly
be overlooked by Santa Claus in his
Christmas rounds, is requested to
send the names and addresses of such
persons to the Civic League, or to the
Chief. It is planned to make this
the happiest holiday season Donald
sonville has ever known, and such a
result can be obtained by making
sure that not single deserving poor
child is overlooked in the distribu-
ton of gifts by the Civic League.

Excellent Amendments.

Gov. Pleasant this week announced
the personnel of the new board of
commissioners of the Pontchartrain
Levee District. J. F. Saxon, Of
Burnside, is named as the member for
Ascension parish, and Henry c.
Braud, also of Burnside, is appointed
as the representative of the Y. & NJ.
V. Railroad. The latter gentleman
has served on the board for the past
four years and has rendered excellent
service in that capacity. Mr.. Saxon,
who is the present member of the
parish school board from the fifth
ward, is a successful planter and in
fuential citizen, and both by reason
of his extensive business interests
and his personal qualifications is well
fitted to fill the important position to
which he has been appointed. Both
of Gov. Peasants selections in this
instance are excellent ones, and will
meet with unqualified public approval.

"Where Are My Children ?"

The subject of birth control, which
is being given so much consideration
BY scientists and students of the pro-
pagation of our race, has been used
as the theme for "Where Are My
Children?" photodrama produced By
Miss Lois Weber, which will be pre-
sented at the Gem Theatre Sunday,
Dec. "a. Miss Weber has handled this
delicate subject in manner that is
bound to provoke no end of discussion.
1t is undoubtedly true, disciples of
the old-fashioned school admit, that
many women are unfit to become
mothers. Distorting their figures to
meet the dictates of fashion; indulg-
ing in pastimes tending to unsex them
and render them masculine; or even
the unavoidable ills due to physical
weakness or heredity, are responsible
for many extreme cases. But these
are the exception, not the rule.
Mother love is implanted deeply
within the breast Of every true Wo-
man. The appeal of sex to sex, and
the wonderful love that springs, and
grows, and blossoms to it's full fruit
in the rearing of home and children,
is one of natures wise rulings to
make all right with the world. These
are the dictates that will control race
propagation, and they are laws too
sacred to be violated. 1t is to this end
that "Where Are My Children?"
brings home to us a never-to-be-for-
gotten truth and a great moral lesson.
