Move Made to Protect
Legitimate Children

,.cago, Oct. l4.-Legislation for
the. protection of war babies" will
be sought during the coming year
by the American Humane society,
which has just concluded its annual
convention here.
"Illegitimacy," said w. o. Stillman,
one of the leaders of the organlza-
ton, lis an increasing factor in So
cial Development. The war has
brought into eing generation of
little ones without names"
"Illegitimate children have &C
CURED comparatively few rights
since the day that Hagar and lsh-
mael were turned out to wander in
the desert of Beersheba," said
Eugene Morgan of Columbus, Ohio.
Here is the program the society
proposed for the redemption of war
babies:
Make it impossible for the puta-
tive father to escape with light
fine.
Give the child the fathers name
and an equal share in inheritance.
Give the hi equal education
rights.
Add no punishment to the sin of
the mother.
Treat the putative father, if he
shows a determined inclination to
escape all the consequences, as a
criminal dangerous TO society and
not as petty thief.
England, and France now are at
work solving the question of illegiti-
mate children and the same ques-
ton will be one of the important
phases of reconstruction in America.
according to officers of the organi-
cation.
While carryil. ! the fight in be-
half of war babies, the svciety will
not slacken its efforts toward the
welfare of the horse, the dog and
Iothef animals.

LIBERTY BOND
SALE is Still
BELOW QUOTA
Omaha $500, 900 Short, CON-
mittee Urges Everyone to
Speed Up and Threatens
Smoke Out SIaCkers.

The total sales of Liberty bonds
in Omaha up to Monday evening
were $9,915,750, or almost 100000
short of the $l0,500,000 quota,
The mems and women's selling
teams report being almost through
soliciting, except for some cleanup
work, which is expected to bring
in about 100000 more.
Where is the last half million
coming from? That is the burning
question. O. T. Eastman, county
chairman, has the answer.
"The last 100000 will have to
come from the men who think they
have subscribed all they can afford,
but who have made no sacrifices.
If necessary they will have to go
to their banks and borrow money
to buy bonds. We will also go after
the financial slackers."
Round Up Slackers.
w. J. Coad's rating committee,
and Guy Cramer's Flying Squadron
are busy on slackers. Every team
in the city has been asked to ,furn-
ish from one to three men to help
build up the Flying Squadron,
which is now composed of 100
picked shock troops.
The Liberty Loan committee has
been watching carefully the meth
DDS in other cities of dealing with
slackers. A paid advertisement
from a Rochester, N, Y, paper call
ing out a Stacker firm struck re-
sponsive cord with the Omaha COM
mittees.
The Omaha committee has not
felt justified in going to this ex-
tremity in smoking out the slackers,
but the adoption of this method is
having serious consideration, an
nounces O. 7. Eastmen.
The largest amount received
Monday, in response to the appeal
from headquarters for additional
subscriptions, was $4,000 from
Cudahy & Co.
Woman Stacker Cited.
One woman, who admitted being
worth $4,000 and owns only one
$50 bond, was called before the
council of defense Monday. She Of
fered to take 5000 worth of bonds.
The subscription was refused and
she was notified that unless she
makes satisfactory subscription in
"a hours the case will be referred
to the State Council of Defense.
The requests for 100 per cent in
dustrial emblems are numerous, but
it remains for G. D. Patterson of
the American Express company to
pull new one. The 800 employees
{, this firm had sos subscriptions,
totallipg $4,000. The question which
is bothering headquarters is whether
to give him a 100 per cent emblem
or a special 100 per cent plus sign.

TELL THRIL.LERS
OF Wild ORGIES
Fascination of Drug and Grim
inal Career is Enjoyed in
the Quaint Philosophy of
Charles Kerr and Wife.

Two OF the most complete wrecks
of humanity that have ever been held
at the central police station, Flor
ence Bowen and Charles Kerr, drug
addlcts of the most hopeless sort,
were turned over to the federal au-
thorities Monday morning.
The couple, who claim to be man
and wife, were picked up at house
on South Twenty-fourth street, Sat-
urday night, sodden with morphine.
The woman was placed in a cell
with four other fallen sisters and
the man in another cell on the
ground floor of the station, with a
number of DRINKS and casual of
lenders.
They both lay, the man on cold
cement and the woman on a steel
floor, in a seemingly unconscious
condition until about 4 o'clock Sun
day. when the two were seized with
terrible commissions and tremors
that occasioned the other inmates
of the cells such alarm that the po-
lice attendants were summoned.
A physician was called, who had
to administer opiates to quiet the
awful cravings, the mental delirium
and the physical manifestations of
agony that had seized them when the
effects. of their orgy in drugs the
night before had worn away.
According to the tale Kerr tells.
Florence Bowen is one of the most
noted shoplifters in the country and
! he has had a long criminal record.
He says he and the woman are mar
ried, their mutual love of criminal
adventure and drugs forming the
bond of affinity that has kept them
together through varied career
that has lasted for years.
Kerr says he is a member of a
highly respectable family of Kansas
and he is a graduate of Leland STAN
ford university. While still in col
lege and between two semesters, he
and a couple of companions, class
mates, equally wild, went to Okla
homa and held up a train. They
managed to escape detection for
some time. but were finally appre-
. hended for a criminal offense and
he was given his first penitentiary
. sentence,
Since then he has put in much of
his time in prison and while in one
of the large penitentiaries of the
country he formed the dope habit
and it now requires 40 grains Of
morphia to affect him.
Kerr claims he has peculiar
philosophy of his own. He says he
would rather undergo the thrill of
criminal adventure, the agony of
craving for drug and the peculiar
citation that qualification gives than
obtain a cure and 60 straight in
life.
my wife and are human rats"
said he. I'VE have sunk low in the
social scale, SO low we are worse
than scum and dregs. Yet we would
not want to change our estate for
the monotony Of responsibility. We
suffer to the full extent of human
capacity, but we are recompensed
when the cause OF our suffering is
assauged. We have no response
bility to ourselves, families, society
anything. We are dead when
without the qualification of morphia
and in heaven when we get it. It's
queer philosophy that makes rS
content with our condition, but it
is ours and we are not ashamed"

Washington, Oct. l4.-After

Coincident with the presidents
