MOTHERS PENSION
MOVEMENT GROWING

Especial Correspondence to The J0urnalo
Washington, Dec. 19.-Forty out
of the rtyeight states have now
adopted some form of mothers
pension, according to facts made
public today in the annual report
of the chief of the children's bu-
reau of the United States depart
ment OF labor. They have recog-
nized the principle that children
should not be taken from their
mothers because of poverty alone.
The rapid extension of the moth
ers' pension movement indicates
the general belief Of the country in
the paramount value of home life
and a mothers care.
However, although large grants
have been made in many of our
states, the amounts In general are
far too small. The increased cost
Of living has not been met and the

tanned. Some of the states are now
making careful studies of increased
costs so that the allowance may
respond to the higher prices.
The systems of administration
vary widely in the different states,
so also do the amount of the ell
lowances and the methods of SUI

careful investigation of the meth
dds in use in all the states 80 that

These were the words Captain
Max Rosenberg used today as he
signed his discharge from the
medical corps of the army when
had transformed him from an i'm
migrant youth, no different from
thousands of others save for a
strong CLEAN of ambition in his
eve. into a trained bacteriologist
and serologist He stepped into an
enviable position as he laid his
khaki away.
After coming to New York City
from Bucharest, Rumania, his
birthplace, Rosenberg satisfied his
desire for learning to some extent
by getting a high school educa-
ton. But he wasn't entirely sat
isfied.
A medical department poster
caught his eye. He enlisted as a
private and two days later was a
student in that branch's school of
instruction at Washington bar
racks, d. c.
Three years later he was doing
practical laboratory work in the
division hospital at Manila in the
Philippines, with the foundation
for the valuable experience which
has now enabled him to become
an expert in scientific research.
Rosenberg has risen to a cap

Former Captain of Infantry
Is Being Tried for Deser-
ton and Theft; Is Mental
ly Competent
(By The Associated Press>

New York, Dec. 19.-John /.
Willers. former captain of the
Forty-eighth infantry, now being
tried by court martial at Governors
Island for desertion and the theft
of more than $4,000 of his COM
pany's funds, today after being de-
clared mentally competent at the
time of the alleged theft and de-
sertion by board of medical Of
ficers, took the witness stand in his
own defense.
Willers testified he was born in
the province of Holstein, Germany
in 1891, and from the age of ten
years he had a tendency toward
kleptomania. When he was IA, he
test tilted, he ran away from home,
and as a consequence of his way
hardness, his family sent him to
the United States in 1905.
Willers said he travelled extern
~sively in this country and finally
enlisted in the United States army
in Albany, N, Y. He purchased his
discharge in 1914. In 1916 he
again joined the army
Later he was sent to the Platts-
burg training camp, where he was
commissioned captain of infantry.
Subsequently he was assigned to
the Forty-eighth infantry and sent
to Camp Sewer.
Willers testified that after the
armistice two Liberty bonds, be-
longing to the men in his company,
were entrusted to his keeping. This
proved too much of a temptation
and the following day he withdrew
other bonds and the company's
funds from the bank. He was in
a weak condition, he said, as the
result of an attack of Influenza,
and the desire to appropriate the
Liberty bonds and money to his
own use proved too strong and he
deserted with the bonds and cash.
The report of the medical board
stated that although Willers was
competent at the time of his al
legged desertion and theft. he had
a tendency toward neurosis,
coupled with a form of klepto-
mania, which is attributed to a de-
fectiye character
Mrs. Willers, wife of the ac-
cused officer, declared she met
Willers in Chicago in June, 1919,
and the following September they
were married. She recounted the
alleged irresponsibility of her nus

that he always appeared greatly

of the historic inaugural ball as a
feature of the Inauguration OF
President elect Harding has been
definitely decided on by the Wash

with. 1t marks the first appear
ance in society of the new chief

The dolls We're. dressed by little
Quaker girls in the old Massachu-
sets town. The clothes are all
handmade, show the painstaking
stitches of the little "modistes," and
some of the toilettes. are quite III
ira, defying traditions .,-of plain
Quaker dress.
Miss Eckert says little Indian
girls love to play house" and are
very fond of dolls, especially
white dolls" though they prefer
dolls with black hair. Some of the
dolls in the missionary" party are
decided blondes and it is a ques-
ton whether they will find quite so
warm place in their little foster
mothers hearts as those with
black hair. 1t is probable, Miss
Eckert says, that the New England
dollies will find themselves
strapped to tiny "baby boards" in
true papoose fashion by their
adopted Indian mothers.
Happy in Their ignorance.
IT these make believe babies,
sent out west by the little "Priscil-
las of New England, could really
know the story of the little IRA
monas" who are to adopt them
would they be scared? Would their
little sawdust hearts just break
with fright?
Six little "paleface" dolls will
go to an Apache girl whose people
belonged to Geronimo's band. 1t
was this band of Apache Indians
that were held prisoners Of war at
Fort Sill, Okla, by the United
States government because of the
trouble that arose when the In
dams tried to hold the land that
had been their home. 1t took n
years time and a million dollars
to settle the trouble, and these In
dams were held for several years
afterwards as prisoners of war.
And it is in this girls reservation
in New Mexico that the Indians
still burn their tcpeos when one of
the tribe dies, because of their be-
lief in evil spirits. With tepees
burning, Indians weeping and evil
spirits lurking about, wouldn't it
be enough to make Puritan dolls
just cry their little eyes out?
Puebios Remembered, Too.
Another group of the dolls will
be sent to a Pueblo Indian girl at
Casa Blanca, N. M. Being perfect
ly good Christian dolls it might be
q relief to them to know that they
will be received by a girl whose
grandfather was one of the first
Christians among the Pueblos. But
it might not be quite so reassuring
TO know that for this reason he
was driven from his village for a
time. However, that was quite a
while ago and it is safe to expect
