Sioux Falls, S. D., Sept. 9.-Declar-
ing that ro-Germanism again had
lifted its head in this country, Pres
/ ident Wilson said in an address here
last night that "every element of
chaos" was hoping there would be mo

Il want to tell you," said the Pres
ident, shat within the last two weeks,
the pro-German element in the United
States again has lifted its head"
This element saw a chance, he said,
by keeping this Nation out of the
League of Nations, to make possible
again what Germany had tried to do IN
the great war. 1t was a clean cut is
sue, Nj. Wilson declared, between this
new order or the old German order.
Declaring the Peace Treaty provis-
ion for an international labor confer
ence would give labor a new bill Of
rights, the President declared the
treaty was a "laboring mans treaty."

Expense of Raising Child

WASHINGTON, September o.
Precise estimates Of the e~ostofrearing
the American child are made in the
first section of a volume entitled
Standards of Child Welfare" A re-
port Of the Children's Bureau Confer
ence, now in the process of publication
by the Children's Bureau of the United
States Department of Labor.
Various authorities reported the re-
suits of their inquiries in this field,
Miss Florence Nesbitt, institute dir
ector in dietetics for the American Red
| Cross, stated that in cities sucn as
Chicago and Cleveland at cost approx
mately $500 a year to buy the essen
tials for maintaining the average
family of fve-father, mother and
three children, at a normal standard
Prof. William Fogborn for the Ma
tional War Labor Board and for the
United States Bureau of labor stat
i~stics, recognized that IN rsaring a
child from birth to sixteen years of
age, $1,325 is added to the family bud
get. Both he and the missioner,
Royal Meeker of the Bureau of feoor
Statistics, concluded, however, from
the budgets they studied that in order
to rear children the average working
man and his wife must economic SER
iously.
The estimate that three-fourths Of
the 22,000,000 school-children in the
United States have health defects
which are actually potentially injur-
ious to them as prospective citizens is
reported by DIR. Thomas D. Wood of
the National Council of Education, in
the third section. DR.. Wood urged
