HOW is YOUR BABY?

Tho death rate of infants in one

Uses. Case of Mooney to Illus

STANDS AGAINST BOLSHEVISN
Charges May Day Strike Is Be-
ing FOmented.
Center of Unrest Is on the Pa
cffic Coast.

Washington, April 22-America S
biggest TASK today is the suppression
of forces of lawlessness within her
own borders, Senator Poindexter,
Washington. declared in the senate
today.
Bolshevikism in this country, he
said, is as direct menace as Prus-
sisnism.
Poindexter used the case of Thomas
Mooney. convicted IN San Francisco
as bomb plotter to illustrate the ar
rcgant and tyrannical movement to
blackmail tn government"
He presented resolution from nod
carriers union charging Moneys con-
viction was the result of big bust
ness plot" He also read into the
record a letter from James Duncan,
Seattle. stating that labor unions plan
a May day strike" if the sentence
against Mooney is not suspended.
Poindexter declared the American
Bolsheviki do not represent the Amer
lean workers. American labor. he said,
is patriotic and united behind the gov
eminent and the war.
cf Is Like BoIshcvism.
The strike propaganda, Senator
Poindexter said. is an insolent threat
to tie up the war industries of the
United States"
The propaganda of lawlessness, he
said, has spread from Russia to this
country and includes "A large guam
tfty of cipes of a pacifist speech de-
livered in the United States senate. .
Former German Ambassador Bern
storff was denounced by Senator Poin-
dexter for having instigated labor I'M
rest and violence. The former Ger
man envoy. the Washington senator
declared, should have been arrested

A BIG PARISH RALLY
Episcopalians to Stimulate Interest in
Coming Convention.

There will be a parish rally meet
ing Wednesday evening, in the Guild
Hall of Grace Cathedral for the pur-
pose of stimulating interest in the do
cesar mission to be held at Grace
Cathedral. May IL to 10. inclusive.
Bishop Wise, and the Rev. Louis G..
Wood of New York, will be the speak
ers. All members of the parish are
earnestly and urgently asked to be
present.
This year the national board of mis-
sionS of the Protestant Episcopal
church is to try out a new plan here
in Topeka for the furtherance of home
missionary work. The plan, if sue
cessful, is to be known as the Kan
other diocese in the United States. The
idea is, to hold in the cathedral city
of every diocese, a mission, in which
all of the congregations of the diocese
are to participate. Heretofore parish
missions only, have been held. The
new plan, it is hoped, will tend to
firmly cement together the various
parts of the diocese, create a better
understanding, and make the diocese
more readily work as unit in the fur
therance of Christian work
The Topeka mission is to be held at
the same time as the annual diocesan
convention. All diocesan conventions
in the future are to be held in the
cathedral parish. 1t is right and fit
ting, thinks Bishop Wise, that the
cathedral should be the diocesan ca pi-
toll in fact as well as in name, and
that all movements for the general
spiritual and temporal good should
emanate therefrom. Else what is the
use of d cathedral?

worse fate was forecast than that he
can live anywhere in America except
in Philadelphia. Archie Jr. will have
wealth and prosperity and in him will
be the elements of leadership. But
while determination will be his in
plenty, he will lack self-esteem.
