JEWISH WOMEN
 ARE BEST MOTHERS
By Associated Press

London, January 1.-The best mothers in London's East Side. the poor district. are Jewish, in the opinion of Dr. c. W. Saleeby, chairman of the national birth rate commission, as experienced in an address at the University College. Dr.. Saieeby added that Irish mothers were net a bad second, and that the Engliss ranked as a very bad third.
 He explained that in the case of ne Jewish and Irish mother this was a di- rect result of race ethics. Breast feed- ing was virtually universal among them, and there was minimum of that dreaded disease arising from immortality. He de- clared that infant mortality was not rc<l- ly medical problem, but a social proh- lem of motherhood and a question of racial morals.
 During his address Dr. Saleeby quoted figures showing that despite bad houring, bad sanitation and vir,ua;;y no child wei fare efforts, infantile mortality in western Ireland was only about B per thousand, as compared with 135 in 1000 in Bradford, England, which has the best equipment for infant welfare in the world.

Washington, Dec. 7.-Congress re-
convened with the customary brief
and routine opening sessions which
were attended by great crowds and
marked by an address in the Senate
by President-elect Harding as a
unique and historic feature. Senator
Harding took his seat, answered his
name when the Senate roll was called
and made a brief address from the
rostrum.
Other features Of the opening Of the
third and final session of the Sixty
sixth Congress were receipt Of annual
appropriation estimases aggregating
$4,653, 10000 and introduction in the
House of an unusual volume of new
bills and resolutions. Senators held
up their bills in accordance with the
custom of limiting the first day to
formal convOcation.
The Senate was In session twenty
five minutes and the HoAse, notwith-
standing its longer roll call, only twice
as long.
New members elected last Novem-
ber to fill vacancies were sworn in and
adjournment taken.
AS usual, the Senate session pro-
ceeded with dignified calm and the
House with bolsterous confusion. The
latter's roll call was taken amid a
| bedlam of felicitations of returning
members and conversation of MEM
bers and spectators.
Galleries of both houses were
jammed and thousands of persons
stood in the halls to catch glimpses and
sounds of the proceedings within.
About the capitol, conferences Of
party leaders, cafe dinner parties and
surging crowds in the corridors fur
nished other opening session atmos-
phere.
More than $50 new bills and resolu-
tions were dropped into the House
hopper and a flood of similar proper
tions is expected in the Senate. In the
new House, measures dealt with al
most every conceivable subject, includ-
| ing proposals for repeal Of war laws,
for appropriations of millions of dollars
for myriad of purposes, pensions and
many measures for farmers relief.
Committees Of both Senate and
House are to begin work Immediately
on the measures left on their calen-
dars from preceding sessions and on
the new grist. Calls for numerous
committee meetings this week were Is
sued by chairmen today, but leaders
said that the regular appropriation
bills would have the right of way. They
added that it was hoped to pass all Of
the appropriation bills before March 4,
but that considerable other legislation
would be squeezed In" 1t also was
said that there probably would be q
short holiday recess about Dec. % over
New Years day and that the principal
work Of the session would come after
the holidays.
Arrangements also were made today
for resumption Of numerous congress
sional investigations suspended in part
or whole during the recent recess.
Among early committee meetings
called was a session Of the Senate for
eign relations committee to take up a
convention with Canada dealing with
military deserters, and other unfin-
ished business.
