GOOD PLACE IN WHICH TO LIVE.

M ORE and more folks are coming to realize that
Nl America pretty good place 10 live in, after all.
Take the report OF the New York Savea-Life League
for instance:
There 32i2 and 1909 women who committed
suicide in America last year This in comparison TO
10000 suicides In China 1919 The report the league
explains does fully represent the total number who
ended their lives in this country but the number low
compared with other years
Suicides says the report always increase following
war. This year that increase far lower than after
other wars.
And all indications point to further decrease for the
year OF 1920.
And don't lose sight Of the fact that Delaware is one
OF the best places in the United States in which to live
and that has comparatively few persons who reside here

THE RAILROAD BILL
LFrom the New York TrIbune.l

With respect TO the two railway bill:
experts have preferred the Cummin.
bill or the Senate to the Esch bin OF
the House. The former seemed bet
tor considered, the latter to be more
political" stop-gap.
So it Is not cheering 20 find that IN
tbe conference differences have been re-
conciled by acceptance OF the Esch
draft.
The Cummlns provision is out which
forbade railway workers 10 combine
and TO quit en- masse. 10 is 10 continue
possible for powerful organizations Of
labor 10 take the public by the throat
and to force 10 TO meet the ransoms
they dem9nd.
Also out Is the Cummns provision
for The creation Of a transportation
board 10 handle The more purely ad-
mlnlstratiye features Of Government
control. The Interstate Commerce Com
mission. a semi-judlclal body and slow
In action, Is to exercise unitary con-
troll. There is advantage in this. for
the body that makes the rates should
also be responsible for operating ana
financial results. but experience with
the commission does not warrant lively
optimism. It will be necessary 20
revolutionlze the spirit Of the commits
sion and to scrap large percentage OF
It's precedents.
The Cummins bill, in the interest Of
operating economy and the avoidance
OF unnecessary Implications, made the
consolidation OF grouped railways COM
pulsory. The Esch provision is ac-
oepted which makes consolidation per-
and thus less likely 10 occur

Since the Delaware began the season by defeating

Newark il forfeited the second game with that team
which was begun Washington, but abandoned because
of ough-house tactics and roous demonstrations Coach

And goodness knows we pawned our

And liquor chose but now it shows we

John Barleycorn, Of course, is dead, he

To many folks It seemed a dread, but

The wisest folks make many jokes

They put us down in oxen yokes as If
we were 4 creature.
They put stop TO father booze, and
laws they are predicting,
And spread around the fateful news, Of

It will not pay to criticise, but keep

For every dog that lives or dies, may
keep his old prescription;
For whiskey now can not be bOnght,

MLEcITIMATE CHILDREN AND MORTALITY.

least 5000 white children are born out OF yvedlocl
"A in the United States each year.
Many Of them arc born In Wilmington and the rural
sections OF Delaware.
Probably not more than 20 cent OF these children
survive the first OF e report "Iegltlmacy
as Child Welfare Problem" just issued by the Chill
drens Bureau, United States Department OF Labor This
report which contains general treatment OF tho prevail
ence and significance Of the problem in this and other
countries, was written introduction to a ex-
hausive study Of the meaning to the child and society,"
Of birth out OF wedock
The most striking fact brought out s the very high
infant mortality among these children. which in
European countries found 30 be about twice that
among children Of fortunate birth, and In three
American cities three times high.
The children who do survive infancy likely to be
deprived of normal home life and mothers Rarely
do they receive the support their father which
they should be entitled. In large proportion Of cases
the public must the burden Of the support Of
these children.
The report emphasizes the~specal need for and
protection OF these children, and points out ways In
which number OF foreign countries and few American
States have attempted to reduce the infant mortality and
combat tho various handlcaps incident to birth OF
wedlock
In effort TO determine the principles that may
found practical in American legislation for the protection
Of these children, the Chidrens Bureau Is calling two
regional conferences for the discussion Of the problem
from the legal judicial and social points Of approach
These conferences, to which a limited number Of leading
social workers, judges and others from number OF
States have been invited to be held in Chicago
February and TO- and New York February IS and H.
Certainly Delaware should be represented in the
ference to be held New York, and that too, by dele
gates who have the child welfare movement deeply al
heart.

WHAT NEW LAWS DO WE NEED?


From the Salisbury News,
TWO months remain Of the present
General Assembly. The next one Is two
yelrs OF. IL Is obvious, therefore, that
this Is the time 10 take careful stock Of
The new laws we need and the changes
that should be made IN old laws The
Business Mems Association and all 9th
ers who are Interested IN Salisbury and
Wicomico county and the Peninsula.
should give these matters their very
careful consideration. One suggestion
IS to think over the events Of the last
few years and to see II the failures in
the lirt might have been prevented by
better laws. Another suggestion is to
consider how this city, county and PEN
insula may be made better places in
which TO live and what part new laws
VIII have in such plans. our purpose
Is TO bring the public mind to bear
upon these questions while the Oppor-
tunity to get new laws is present. We
cannot expect the representatives, in
the General Assembly TO think Of every
thing.
We have already suggested the bond
ing law for roads and schools, the adj
ministratlon thereof 10 be In the hands
Of a commission Of known and proved
fitness for the work Here are some
other suggestions
