 BE CARED FUR

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Aug. 10.--Despite all obstacles, Arkansas is to have insti- tutions to care for it's girls and delin- ouent women. A campaign is now being launched to raise $100,O0O in this state, to be put with $50,0OO to be contributed by the government and with the proceeds erect Girls In dustrial School and Woman's Re- formatory. A. B. Poe, of Little Rock, is chairman of a general committee, composed of prominent men ap- pointed by Gov. Chas. H. Brough, to raise this fund. An intensive cam paign will be waged in every county of Arkansas in September to raise this amount. Mrs. c. H. Brough IS general chairman of the Woman's Division and will have the co-opera- tion of every church society and club in the state. Prominent churchmen are also backing the movement, and with the assistance of the women, failure is considered impossible. The government considers these institu- tions war necessities for the protec- tion of the soldiers, as we'll as of the womanhood of the state.
 Rev. P. c. Fletcher, one of the best known Methodist divines of the state, is member of the executive com mitttee and will make number of addresses in different cities on the project. Bishop Mouzon of Dallas is also expected to fill several engage ments, as we'll as Bishop Winchester, and other eminent divines.
 Gen. Lloyd England has been de- signated as treasurer for the fund.- Gov. Brough has pledged the SUD- port of the state for the maintentnce of the institutions.

A|RPlANE LANDED
 HERE YESTERDAY

An airplane in charge of Aviator Guy K. Rudd late Friday afternoon landed on the farm of Chastain Bros. south of Newport, and very soon a crowd of several hundred persons as sembled in that vicinity, many of them to get their first close up view of flying machine. The flyer, ac- companied by his mechanic, stopped here to get gasoline, twelve gallons being furnished by the Hutson-Ladd Motor Car Company which was car ried to the machine from Newport in an automobile.
 The machine was from Eberts Field, Lonoke, and flew to Williford, Sharp county, Friday morning, where a big patriotic celebration took place. This machine, together with another from Lonoke, passed over this section early yesterday morning enroute to Williford. The other machine made tke return trip late in the afternoon shortly after Flyer Rudd landed here and passed over near Newport, fol lowing the course of the Iron Noun tain railroad. Very few citizens saw the second plane returning.
 Aviator Rudd expressed surprise because Newport had not built a landing place here for airplanes, and said if this were done that airplanes would come to the city frequently The matter of constructing such g place here will be taken up probably next week by the Chamber of Com merce when Business Manager Mar iner arrives from Webb City, Mo.

MORALS OF GERMANY
 CONTINUE TO DEFER
 IORATE BECAUSE WAR

ence of The Associated Press. )-The moral deterioration of the German nation in consequence of wartime trials is greatly troubling clear -mind- ed observers of the Fatherland. The Lutheran Synod of Berlin the other day called a special meeting to dis cuss how to deal with the dissolute ways of the thousands of young mu- nitions workers, male and female, who habitually squander their high wages in riotous living and immoral ity. It was agreed that most of the youth of the country seemed to be en- tirely beyond control.
 Much has already been written about the unsafety of the public streets, and the general callous indif- l ference to the sufferings of others. This seems to apply to the whole of Germany
 Every mans hand seems to be against his neighbor," the Cologne Gazette despairigly exclaims, and it devotes a whole article to the intense if latent anger of the populace at the extortions to which it is subjected by the interruptions methods of trades men, who, in their turn are made the victims of deficient government con- trol and the usurious pactices of pro- ducers.
 Popular discontent inflamed by an- nouncements of extravagant profits such as those made by meat firm which supplies the army. It operated with a capital of a million marks and in one year netted profit of 722 2,638 marks.
 Sarcastic comment abounds in re- spect of the newly rich who Haunt their recently acquired wealth in the faces of their less-favored fellow cit izens. The vulgarian who at res l taurant calls for "three times a DOT ton of whatever is most expensive" is 8 standing type.
 Another feature is the phenome- nal demand fo real estate by war l profiteers whose aim is to become lord of a manor" The German Tageszeitung the other day contain ed no fewer than 25 advertisements for country estates wanted at once, from 1000 to 2,500 acres, price no object, although land has risen to double, and some times treble, the value of pre-war times.
 All these things serve to embitter the helpless poorer classes to degree 1 the danger of which has not escaped the attention of the powers that be, as witness recent arrangements made at Munster, Westphalia, where the service of the clergy has been enlisted 1 by the officials war food department to keep down the growing popular discontent over the food difficulties.
 Even the Rheinish Westphalian Gazette, which gives publicity to this interesting piece of news, expresses 1 the fear that the last few months pre- ceding the harvest will be an exceed ingly trying time, and for this reason the war food department wishes to remain in constant touch with the minor clergy, so as to have the bene- fit of their observations among the people
 With reference to this, the social istic Vorwaerts prophetically ex- claims "After the war there will be only two camps-war profiteers and out-and-out Socialists"
