Three Divisions There-ReVieW
 Of Siberian Troubles

Tokio Japan. Nov. 29.--There have been no official explanations made, either in Tokio or Washington, to throw light on the recent reports from Siberia of friction there regarding the guarding of the Siberian railroad lines, although the fact that there has been increasing friction appears to be we'll substantiated According to reports which have reached Japanese Daily here from Vladivostok, the main question at issue was over the guarding of the Chinese Eastern railway where Japan had stationed troops. So far as this particular point is concerned, however, it is stated What Japan has withdrawn her soldiers from the Chinese Eastern, these railroad guards being replaced by Cossaclls. 1nasmuch as the Am- ; crican contention is that the Seminov and kalmikov Cossacks are to all practical purposes acting under Jap- anese instruction, tho matter can hardly be said to be settled.
 In connection with the Siberian sit- uaton, the correspondent of the Japanese Daily at Picking sends the following as the understanding of affairs in the Chinese capital:
 ''The recent difficulties over Inter- Allied management of the Trans-Si- berian and Chinese Eastern railways which have led to renewed discussions by the Allied representatives at Vladi- vostok regarding the future manage ment of these lines,' he writes, "arc generally understood here to be due to the differing interpretations given by Japan and the United States to their agreement providing for joint action in Siberia. According to the terms of this agreement, each country was to put not more than 1000 men into Siberia; and later, when it was found that the limitation of the Japa- nese and American expeditionary forces to this exact number would impair their efficiency by the neces-

10000 Maternity
Deaths i'm u. S. in
Year, Census Shows
Association Urges Necessity
to Reduce Fatalities; q
Clinics in Operation, and
Many More Are Needed

The necessity of decreasing the ma
ternal death rate was emphasized at
the first annual meeting of the Ma
ternity Centre Association held yester-
day in the home of Mrs. Arthur Scott
Burden, % West Fifty-third Street.
According to the census 10000 women
in the United States died last year
during childbirth. The association is
working also to reduce permanent i'll
nesses which often result through
negligence or improper attention.
Since its organization the associa-
and has at present 7,400 expectant
mothers under its care. Women are
instructed in prenatal care and kept
under the constant supervision of
physician or nurse. In addition, baby
clothes are sold to mothers at the cost
of the cloth on the instalment plan.
The clinic has working housekeeper
service so that a competent woman is
always available to go in5o the home
and assist with the housework and care
of other children until the mother re-
gains her strength.
Aim to Reduce Infant Mortality
During the coming year the asso-
citation plans to open more and larger
clinics and TO cooperate more closely
with infant welfare organizations to
determine the relation of prenatal care
to reduction of infant mortality
1t was pointed out that in the ma
jority of cases deaths at childbirth
could have been prevented by proper
care. Mothers whose finances are
limited often do not get sufficient at
tention. There are to-day, according
to statistics supplied by the Federal
Children's Bureau, at least $4,000 ex-
pectant mothers in New York City who

Bryan Urges Democrats
To Line Up for Suffrage
Tells Southern Senators PARTY
Cannot Afford to Go ON
Record Against 1t
New York Tribune
Wdshtr Bureau


WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-William
Jennings Bryan was at the Capitol to-
day making party appeal to South
ern Democrats to pass the Woman
Suffrage amendment next week. He
conferred with Senators Trammel, of
Florida; Overman, of North Carolina,
and Hoke Smith, of Georgia.
The gist of Mr.. Bryan's appeal is
that woman suffrage will pass and that
the Democratic party cannot afford to
go, on record as holding it back. He
believes the next Congress will pass
the amendment before the next Presi-
dentlal election, any way He issued
the following statement this after
noon:
Suffrage is coming in this country
and the world. 1t will be submitted by
the next Congress as soon as it meets,
II 1t is not submitted by the present
Congress-. l hope that the Democrats
OF the South will not handicap the
Democrats of the North by compelling
them to spend the next TWENTY-FIVE
years explaining to the women Of the
country why the Democratic party
prevented the submission of the
amendment
This is our last chance to play an
important part in bringing about this
reform. and it is a matter of vital
political spconcern that the Democrats
OF the northern Mississippi Valley
snail not be burdened by the charge
that our party prevented its submis-
sion, especially when it is now known
That 1t is coming in spite of, if not
with the aid of, the Democrats.

OF School Lunches
Investigation by Citizens of
East Side Shows Hundreds
of Children Suffering
From Lack of Good Food

A campaign for a city-wide system of
school lunches was started yesterday
by committee of representative East
Side citizens, who originally set out
to relieve suffering entajled by the high
cost of milk. The committee is headed
by Joseph H. Marcus, president OF

House, are secretary and treasurer, re-
srectively.
According to Mr.. Slower, census of
anemic children, taken bv school teach
crs at the order of DR.. William L..
Ettinger, Superintendent of Schools,
showed that 1922 school children, in the
section east of the Bowcry and south
Of Fourteenth Street, arc suffering
from acute nalnutrition.
'Ihis nur' Der does not include all
children who are below the average
physically" said Mr. Slower yester-
day. "It includes those children who
are markedly suffering, because of un-
dernourishment due to poverty. A
physical examination in one of the
schools showed that 800 children needed
proper food"
School lunches, Mr.. stover pointed
out, will not only help the poor, full
meal being served for from to 10
cents, but children of parents in better
circumstances will not misspend their
lunch money. He said that personal
observations showed him that children
patronize the candy and ice cream
venders with money given them for
lunch.
