WHAT IS AMERICAS T.:
GREATEST MORAL EVIL

Prudery, says q score OF prominent

LEGITIMACY than the average unthink-
ing American will admit. In fact say
court officials it is by far the most
frequent cause Of this tragic blight
upon youth. Prudery' is the only
bar between enlightenment and ig-
norance on sex subjects and prevents
parents from warning their children
Of sex dangers in their early years
Of young man and womanhcod.
And the children pay" the mo-
ton picture which caused the great
est censorship fight in the history of
the motion picture industry and
which was finally shown to great
crowds of Chicagoans only after judi
ges; clergymen, physicians and city
officials had come to valient defense
of its theme, is terrific and intense
ly dramatic arraignment Of the fail
ures of American parents to fortify
their children against the tempta-
lions of life, against the license which
carries on In abandoned quarters Of
metropolitan life.

ed the showing of the picture, the

Every parader was equipped with a brand of "red fire" and viewed from a point of vantage in one of the ho- tel windows on Main street 1t made a pretty spectacle as the procession went by, P1aeards of all description were also borne by the marchers. One amusing incident of the parade hap pened along State street just as the last of the paraders hove into view poster of Warren G. Harding and fell into line at rear. The enthusiasm created by the Hardfng banner was sadly missing. It was purely a Dem eeratie night, Hundreds of other Democrats who had signified their in- tention of marching. in the parade were stampeded early in the evening when the report was spread that the s. R. O. sign had been hung out at the Casino and the Arena.
 Assistant Superintendent of Police Flood and Captain James Walker head of the Traffic Division, had their hands full looking after the heavy traffic which resulted in front of the Stratfefd just before the parade start ed due to Gold street having been given ever to the forming of the line of march,
 The. efficient way in Vi1fef trafae. was regulated during the. time be- tween o'clock when the paraders first assembled and o'clock when the march started was q. further evil dence that the police were on the job.

 At $50 o'clock, the Waterbury train, to which Cox's private. car was attached, pulled into the station. Chairman John A. Cornell, Jr., of the Democratic Town committee, fosl1 master Charles F.

Headed by the Coast Artillery band and preceded by several prominent clerymen in automobiles and the end winding up with fifty automobiles filled to capacity with women bearing the standard, Augustine Lonergan for United States Senator" more than 1000 staunfh followers of the Demo cratic party fell in line last night at the corner of Gold and Main streets and marched to the State street Casino. Later they were addressed by Governor James M. Cox, the Dem ocratic presidential nominee for the White House chair, and Augustine Lonergan, candidate for United States senator.
 As early as seven o'clock the crowds turned out particularly in front of the Strat tfield Hotel where they were lined against the curb six and seven deep. The parade, headed by Law renee T. Gill, grand marshal of the parade and with Harry Silverstone and Joseph J. Devine as aides, moved promptly from the starting point at Main and Gold streets at o'clock. From this place to the Casino the marchers were viewed bv thousands and greeted with cheer after cheer as they marched along.
 The feature of the parade was easily the large turn out of women and judging from a non-partisan passed along the street it is going to be a tough election for one Frank B. Brandegee, the Republican nominee for United States senator.
 The Eighth District Democratic club headed by the Devon Fife and Drum Corps made a particularly strong showing and turned out in

sHOWDY FOLKS?" COX'S
 GREETING TO THE CITY

Cox, the next President of the United States" shouted an enthusiastic spec tator, and the crowd did its best.
 As the Governor entered the crowd to make his way to the automobile which was waiting to carry him to the Casino, the first person he greeted was woman who was carrying small baby in her arms. The Gov ernor held out his arms, and the baby laughed gleefully, although perhaps not fully realizing the importance of the occasion.
 Spectators cheered wildly as Cox made his way across the platform. He stopped to shake hands with several women, and hundreds surged forward to grasp his hand. The police held the crowd back, and the Governor passed through the station to his car which was waiting on the other side
 Another crowd. which had been un- able to catch sight of Cox as he left his train, had gathered about the big machine which was loaned by the LocomobiIe company, and the Cover nor was greeted with another man. moth display of enthusiasm as he en- tered the car. The machine was dec orated with American flags, and be- sides Cox, carried Cornell, Greene and members of the reception committee and the Governors party.
