A Square Deal for
Destitute Riddles

After six years of pleading by mothers of this
state the state senate yesterday passed an amend
ment to the mothers pension" law ms it is popu-
larry called which finally gives measure of justice
to ALL destitute children.
Whether the house will follow suit still remains
to be seen. The Star has ceased hoping for either
house TO consider measure merit.
The amended "chd maintenance" act should pass
the house. 1t win be miracle if ii does-but mir
acles happen occasionally.
The 1913 legislature passed the original law. In
manner. the law made to read that only
women whose husbands dead in the peniten-
tiary in the insane asylum. entitled to the
pension to maintain their children. If a woman
deserted. she could get no help
AT every session of the legislature since them
honest men and women beseeched the lawmakers to
remedy this defect in the law. 1t was contended
that it is the chldrens welfare that must be con-
sdered and that formed the basic principle of the
bill
IL was contended that wherever there was dest-
tute child its mother. if a proper person to care
for il. should be given 'chid's maintenance pen
sion. A woman whose husband is n deserter needs
that help fully much whose husband
is in the penitentiary That seemed obvious.
Yet the politicians in the legislature refused to
act-unt yesterday, TO the surprise of ALL the state
senate passed the Hastings-Wray BILL
It's now up to the house to furnish a second sur
prise.

Decreased Circulation

PARIS, Thursday, Sept. 1S.-A break

the newspapers here. The sudden i'm
provement IN foreign exchange is at
trlbutod to the weekly statement of the
bank of France. which for the first
time IN months shows sharp decrease
IN the circulation of paper currency.
The dangerous market situation.
however, is dwelt upon by "LHeure"
and La Liberte," which declare that
the present low value of the franc
has been created by speculative buy

continued depreciation of French
money. La Liberte," in an editorial,
calls upon the government to inter

the frenzled bear campaign conducted
nY lofelgn fnanclers, in which the
franc has been the victiin." The news
paper emphasizes the fact that the
french exchange market SHOULD be
controlled By Frenchmen."
RERLIN, Sept. 19.-Thc serious con-
d'tion of German exchange is chiefly
due to the increase in artificial credit
caused by the large issue of bank

Meet Home and Export Needs,
Saws WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-More wheat
should be sown this fall than during
pre- war times, but n.,r as much should
be planted as was sown last year, the
Department of Agriculture recommend
ed to-day in a series of suggestions
for future harvests, based on foreign
conditions.
On winter wheat, the Department
suggests that AZ 1000 600 acres be sown
this fall and 10000 900 acres be sown
in 1920 to spring wheat, making 4
probable aggregate production in 1920
Of 10000 900 bushels, Of which 2O0,-
900, 900 bushels would be available for
export.
The pressure of war demand for rye
has ceased, and it does not seem prob
able that exports next year will greatly
exceed 25.00O,o0 bushels, the depart
mcnt says Consumption Of rye in
this country was stimulated by the
war to about 100000 bushels. If
this rate Of consumption is maintained
a crop Of IS to so million bushels would
be necessary to provide 25,0O0,000
for export, indicating a total acreage
Of $500, 900 to 5000, 900 acres, in com
parison with 6,S00,000 acres last fall.
at seems clear that if the foreign
exchange situation continues as it is or
becomes more abnormal it viii consti-
tute a powerful stimulus for some Tor
eign countries to seek grain elsewhere,
or to produce it," the statement says.
