Some Much-Needed Legislation


Every feeble-minded girl, unless
carefully protected, becomes a
menance to the morals of the COM
munity. These people may marry
now and reproduce their kind,
neither of which things should ever
be allowed 10 occur. The State
should do its duty in this matter.
5. A Kentucky girl of ~ and a
Kentucky boy of IA may marry, IL
their parents consent. The mar
riage laws of the State should be
amended so as to make such thing
impossible. Sixteen years for girls
and eighteen years for boys is quite
young enough, but these should be
the legalized years.
Women should have the S-hour
day, and should toll for minimum
wage. Kentucky has Jagged behind
many other states in legislation for
protection Of women in industry.
:. The State Board of Health needs
a greatly increased appropriation
TO enable il 10 do more effective
work. The organization is excel
lent, but it cannot function prop
erly without sufficient funds. The
Secretary now receives the princely
salary of sk200 year-about
enough to pay laundry bills and buy
his oatmeal and tooth picks. The
Legislature ought to appropriate
the funds needed.
9. The University of Kentucky
and the State Normal Schools need
large sums of money to enable them
to carry out their enlarged pro-
grams. The State will never have
an educated citizenship until it is
willing to pay the price of educa-
ton for all its people. II now has
that opportunity-John F. Smith.

Certain legislative reforms are
urgently necessary TO the common
welfare in Kentucky, and il is
earnestly hoped that the present
Legislature will bring these meas
ures into operation.
1. The pressing need of the hour
is for educational reorganization.
An excellent program has been pre-
pared by the Department Of Educa-
ton which, il adopted, will yield
far reaching results. It deserves
support.
2. District sanatoria are needed
for the treatment and cure Of pa
ticnts suffering with tuberculosis.
About 10000 Kentucky people have
this dread disease now, and nearly
5000 will die this year because the
State has not provided any means
Of caring for this army of sufferers.
Kentucky ought TO assume this
responsibility instead OF allowing
its people TO die because Of neglect.
3. A Department Of Public Welfare
should be created. There is no
government agencies at Frankfort TO
coordinate the work Of the vari-
Gus social welfare organizations in
way that will eliminate overlap
ping and insure that all sections OF
the State shall be reached. The
Commonwealth Council now serves
as a friendly adviser, but IL can
only recommend courses Of action
Z. Farms and homes for the care
and training Of the feeble-minded
should be established. There are
over 1000 feeble-minded people in
the Commonwealth with no pro-
lection whatever, except that Of
fered by friends and relatives

NEW CHURCH EDIFTcE TO BE
QuIIT

Three hundred or more members
and friends Of the Union Church
met in the Parish House on Thurs
day evening and, after a splendid
suppcr'servcd by the good ladies of
th, Church. subscriptions for a new
church building were taken. The
meeting was highly successful, and
a fine spirit and great enthusiasm
in the enterprise was manifested.
A movement was put on foot about
four years ago for the purpose Of
building n new church, but the I'M
settled state Of the world made II
best 10 delay the project Some
money had been paid in on former
pledges and interest has been accu-
mulating so that the committee had
over $4,000 in hand.
II is estimated that $4,000 will he
needed 10 construct the building that
is planned. or this amount Berea
College will most probably pay 80
percent. The goal 10 be raised at
this meeting was $4,000. Mr.. II. r.
Taylor had charge Of the meeting
when the subscriptions were being
taken. and 10 is needless 10 say that
everybody was happy and sub
scribed literally. One gift Of $1,000
was announced, ten more $500
pledges were made, and on down
with smaller amounts. When all
had pledged, Il was found that the
total was si7,535. Others who were
unable 10 he present are known TO
be planning TO pledge; so that with
some further effort the required
amount will be secured.
The ediflce is 10 be located just
across the street south from Boone
Tavern. II has been fully decided
10 call IL the Fee Memorial, and It
in being erected in memory OF the
late John @. Fee, who was the foun-
der Of the church and who was for
over forty years its pastor. No more
fitting memorial could be erected TO
this noble saint and hero Of the
Cross.

BRINGSFIGHT
G. O. p. Insurgents DEMAND
Quick Action to Draft
New Bill.

Republican insurgent leaders in
the House took steps yesterday to
forestall any attempt the party
leaders may make to defeat the SOL
dier aid legislation by delaying its
consideration until too late to pass
II at this session.
A demand was presented that the
Ways and Means Committee imme-
diately be called into session TO
draft a substitute for the abandon
ed sales tax section. The insurE-
ents let IL be known that they will
brook no unnecessary delay in re-
drafting the measure.
Prospects Are Brighter.
As a result Of the days devel-
opment the insurgent leaders de-
clared the prospects for soldier aid
brighter than ever" The oppo-
nents of the bill. they believe, will
not run the risk of provoking a
wider breach in the party organI-
zation by resorting to dilatory tao
tics.
Some members of the committee
indicated yesterday that they will
propose that the cash bonus fea-
ture be reduced from s1.25 q day
to 81. and that the amount to be
paid to each beneficiary be limited
to $500.
Another suggestion which will
be given consideration is that pay
ment of the cash bonus be extended
over four annual instsllments.
Representative Johnson. Of South
Dakota, leader of the insurgents,
said they may agree to q compro-
mise embodying an increase in sur
taxes. a tax on stock dividends and
tax on war profits not 30 drastic
as that provided for in the John
son-Rainey bill.
