AMERICAN ARMY

WAITING TO BE A MIGHTY FORCE
I'M FRANCE

WASHINGTON May 13.-The de-
cision not to use the American army
in France until it has been built up
to the proportions OF a complete and
mighty force was first disclosed to
the public III last nights dispatches
from Ottawa based on adyices from
the War committee OF the British cabi-
net.
1t follows a long period of consider
alton between two schools ofmilitary
strategists which have been contend
ing ever since the German drive he
gan on the most effective manner to
use the American forces. There are
no official expressions available on the
subject today.
Those familiar with the subject are
of the opinion that the decision agrees
more with the views OF the British
strategists than with the French
One thing certain, however, is that
rushing American troops to Europe
vii be pressed rather than retarded
and the redoubting Of the effort to
equip them with all necessary heavy
artillery and other engines of war to
quickly bring the full strength of the
great army to the battle front.

WELFARE BOARD
MEETS TOMORROW
CHILD WELFARE TO BE DISCUS
SEQ AT MEETING

Plans will be discussed for the COM
munity and child Welfare Programe
tomorrow. The campaign will com
prise whole summers activities.
A Better Babier Week is the first
item.
1t has been said a man is known by
the company he keeps, yet long be-
fore he is old enough to select his as
sociates, his surroundings have made
the choice for him.
His poor widow has never voted to
place a saloon or house of disrepute
in a residential section, but being
poor, she has to rent house where
rents are low-and where saloons and
disrepulable homes are found in
a bundance so her children are reared
in community where purity modesty
and honesty are Knocked despised and
for hidden; hence, crime is the natural
product.
Environment is not all we must take
account of inherited defect weakness,
arrested development of the brain and
alcoholic tendencies, while it can be
made morally certain that in unfavor-
able situation increases crime, or
modifies the expression of it, it can
be shown by the study of history stats
tics and local surroundings and while
the cause that produced abnormal
conditions, were set up with all the
volition of the victium often before he
was born, many people live in the
same environment that criminals have
who live above falling and crime and
the question is WHAT Is lIle ull0I OlS0 :
Is it not in the criminal himself in
something peculiar to his nature?
Unfavorable bodily conditions are
among the causes of crime, and habit
ual inebrity will change man into
thief, liar and even murderer
Crime, by repeating itself becomes
second nature and SO we might go on
relating causes and conditions in de
finity, but these are merely given to
suggest some of the reasons for which
Child Welfare has become recognized
| by almost the entire nation as the
thing of paramount Importance today
This will be discussed more fully
in the meeting of the advisory board
tomorrow at the court house.
