CHILD DISCRETION AND CRINlINALTY
DUE TO LIQUOR

After spending month in the Carnegie library in
pittsburgh studying the criminal records of the world
an lnvestlgatigator for the liquor found that Sc
per cent OF all criminals abandoned in childhood
lie made this study to prove that the liquor bust
ness IS not responsible for the large number of crm-
nails which prohibtonsts say it produces.
How does it happen that large percentage of the
class abandoned in childhood? What kind of par
ents did they have?
Those who have lived and abored amongst the poor
est people in great cities for many years declare
that comparatively few children abandoned on ac-
count of poverty. Usually mother will work herself
to death, rather than abandon her child no matter
how poor she may be-
Ordinarily children deserted by their parents be-
cause these parents have become sodden and depraved
through the use of strong drink.
So that in the last analysis may charge up to the
of liquor the deserton Of babies and little children
indeed it has been clearly demonstrated by a most
comprehensive study that as per cent of the child de-
serti0n in this country is due to the liquor habit
If tt is true that Sc per cent of all criminals
abandoned in childhood and As per cent of the child
deserton is due to liquor then it must be perfectly OBJ
vous that there's very close relationship between
crminality and the liquor habit.
The liquor men simply cannot get away from the
cold hard facts being produced day by day result
of scientific and expert investigation.
The fact is, have all the statistics necessary to
take the saloon and the liquor business off the map

GREAT WRESTLER Is
FULL OF CONFIDENCE

Wrestling fans are anticipating
plenty Of action tomorrow night when
Joe Turner meets John Kilonis, the
Greek demon. at the Lyceum Theater
in a finish wrestling match. There
is some talk of the inability of Tus-
.ner to turn the trick, but the hackers
of the local man are as confident as
they have been in the past that he
will be awarded the decision over the
Greek.
Kilonls is coming back to Wash
ington to vindicate himself before the
local fans. from the defeat Joe hand
ed him here two years ago. Both
grapplers realize the Importance of
this match and will face each other
with grim determination to win. To
kilonis victory means more than any
match he has had in his whole career
as a wrestler.
The Greek has been a great rattrac-
ton in the graphing art for the past
ten years because he always causes
his opponent to extend himself to
the limit and it's action all the time.
he realizes that a win over Turner
would increase his drawing ability
and he would be able to demand more
money in future matches.
The match Thursday night will be
one filled with thrills for every
minute they work, as both men are
noted for their speed and cleverness.
Pat OConnor the popular local
referee will of1iciate as the third man
in the ring.

INTERNATIONAL WILL
VOTE TO SUSPEND

New York, March 26.-The vote to
suspend the International League will
probably be taken when the direc-
tors meet tomorrow morning here.
Il seems almost impossible to hold
the organization together any longer.
The Eastern League and the New
York State Circuit will stand ready
to collect the clubs which are willing
to maintain team this summer.
while the major leagues will gather
in all the worthy players. The Prov
idence Grays will, no doubt, play in
the Eastern League this summer.
They are only waiting now for the
formal vote to suspend before taking
over the Portland, Maine, franchise
Rochester and possibly Toronto will
line up with the New York State
League. while Jack Dunn, of the Bal
timore Internationals, claims he will
have a team. Richmond and Mon
treal have thrown up the sponge. The
Buffalo franchise has already been
taken over by the league.
The only protesting voice against
'suspending, which is expected at the
meeting tomorrow, will be raised by
Dunn, who is coming to the meeting
with an ambitious hope OF building a
new structure out of the Interna-
tional wreck. President C. ]. Chaplin,
of the Rochester club, acting head
of the International. has finally given
up hopes of holding the organization
together. He declared today that he
believed it would be better to risk
losing the territory than to attempt
operation and pile higher the debt
which has been accumlating since
the advent of the Federal League.
