Woman Needs a
New Moral Education.

Even before the war our public authorities
had been concerned with the question. Various
measures were proposed, but they all ended in
a proposition of taxation: tax to be paid by
the bachelor or q relief OF taxation for large
families. These measures are inefficacious, for
they are too gentle. However high the tax
may be on bachelors, it will always be less

Woman Must Do Her
Duty Like the Soldier.

The natural mission Of woman has always
been the continuation OF the race For a long
time, in centres of civilization. In our cities
woman has been failing more and more IN her
sacred mission. In the modern life OF cities

was becoming rare for that reason. But fool.

VINO oid not wish to avoid II. They not only
led many women TO sterility but also trans.
formed healthy and normal maternity into n
long and painful illness with lasting conse.
quences.
This torture naturally had no attraction for
women. They needed true heroism to be
willing to run such great risks. In the entire
Occident large families we're thus becoming
more and more rare. For many years statis-
ticians In all countries had sounded a CRY OF
alarm. but very few women troubled them
selves about It. II was q mistake on their
part, serious mistake. but only a mistake,
for the disastrous future was still far away.
But the war came and then Il was seen that
what had been before the war simply an error
would become tomorrow q crime.
When men are lighting on the battlefield or
in the economic world to reestablish peace,
industry and harmony in the world women
must accept maternity as sacred duty. They
must become the willing conscripts OF ma.

the natural undeformed outline Of the human
body should be preserved.
If our women do not choose to learn by
themselves that maternity is to-day a primor-
dial necessity we shall have to force them to
understand it. After the war the public au-
thorities will have to consider seriously the

COMMONS TAKES UP

Resolution Put Forward Calling on Gov

London, Nov, l6.-The price of food
which has become such serious mat
ter in England as in all other belligerent
countries, was discussed in the House of
Commons yesterday. William Hewins,
Unionist member from Hereford, intro
duced the following resolution:
In the opinion Of the House it is the
duty of the government to adopt fur
Their methods OF organization to increase
and conserve the national food supply,
and to diminish the risk of shortage and
serious increase Of prices in the event
of the war being prolonged"
The debate on this resolution, if not
arranged by the government, took place
in concurrence with its wishes, and Wal
ter Runciman, president of the board OF
trade, was expected to announce drastic
proposals to deal with the difficulties OF
the present position.
The activity of German submarines
in sinking a large number Of ships, which
is related so closely to the price of food,
will be discussed in the House of Lords
by Lord Charles Beresford and Baron

than tentative. There is now situation
wherein we come to the criticisms which
we trust will result in unity of mind. >"
The Carranzista mem ers had planned
to send the tentative agreement to Car

the Americans expected to submit the
proposals to the Washington government
by telegraph.
Whether the 18th hour opposition of
the Mexican side will thwart the expect

the Americans hope for action more ia

The Laborites in Convention

DENIAL OF SYMPATHY

Suggestion for a Tax on the
Exports of Neces-

Baltimore, Md, Nov. l6-After brief
session yesterday the convention of the
American Federation of Labor adjourned
until to-day in order to permit the va
rious committees to take up the consid-
Grafton of the 100 resolutions that have
been offered.
A motion was carried that the conven-

President Wilson in body.
AT the conclusion of the reading of the
report of the federation's fraternal dele
gates to the recent British Trades Coun-
ell, Paul Scharrenberg of San Francisco
questioned Matthew Woll of Chicago,
who read the report.
He asked if Delegate Mahon had Civ

to him in press dispatches that "the
workers in America generally sympa-
thized with the cause of the entente al
lies because they thought it represented
right and liberty" VOL denied that

ing, the increases are becoming harder
to get, so that in short time difficulties
will arise in the efforts to secure in
creases which will be insurmountable."
Accordingly the president and execu
tive council of the federation were in
structed TO take into consideration the
advisability OF submitting for approval
an amendment of the constitution Of the
United States whereby a tax may be laid
on exports from this country so as to
prohibit the expectation of necessities of
life at prices lower than they are sold
