INCREASED BIRTH RATE
NO BENEFIT TO FUTURE
Means Only More Deaths,
Says Prof. E. A. Ross.

MADISON. Wis, Oct 7.--Neither the
present nor future generations would
benefit by an increased birth rate. E. A.
Ross. professor of sociology at the Uni
yersity of Wisconsin. said in an address
before student body last night.
Increased birth rate is accompanied
without exception by an increased death
rate" Prof Ross said. He asserted that
the population OF the United States was
increasing rapidly. due to reduction in
the death rate rather than to an in
crease in the birth rate.
Twenty years ago. when I coined
that grossly misused phrase race sui

day, with changed conditions and years

He declared that child labor laws
advances in medical science and pater-
nalistic legislation had given the white
race a longevity unequalled through
the ages"

BULL FULL OF LIQUOR
WRECKS MAIL FLIVVER
Tops SiIo and Then Tackles
Rural Letter Carrier.

Special Despatch TO THE NEW YoHK HERALD.
COUNCIL BLUFFS. Oct. AFTER drink
ing corn juice that had seeped out of a
silo an ordinarily docile bull jumped his
pasture fence to-day and attacked a
rural mail driver, overturning his
flivver.
The mail driver, Clyde Edwards. de-
serted the wrecked machine and made
good his escape, leaving the animal
making gradually weakening attacks on
the wrecked car.
The bull. Duke. Is owned by the COM
munity, and always has been famed for
his peaceablc character. When farmers
in the neighborhood arrived with ropes
end pitchforks to round him up Duke
was lying in dead stupor beside the
battered flivver while mail was scat
tered all over the road.

ASKS
GAS CONSOLIDATION
Commissioner Advocates One
Big Company for New
York City.
UNIFIED RATE TO ALL
Ultimate Municipal Ownership
Part Of Scheme He UnfOlds
at Convention.

Special Despatch to THE New York HERALD.
LAKE PLACID, N. Y. Oct. THE con-
solidation of all the gas companies in
Greater New York was advocated here
to-day by William A. Prendergast,
chairman of the State public Service
mnAssion. He was speaking In the
conv'n ntion Of the Empire State Gas and
Electric Association. He announced
himself in favor OF such an amalgama-
ticn. because 1t would make possible a
uiJified gas rate to all consumers in all
SECTIONS Of New York city and concen-
trate operation in the interests Of eff
cheney and economy.
He declared 1t his belief that the city
government should be made a part of
the new system, adding that he was not
suggesting municipal operation, bat that
"a plan could be evolved through which
the city would gradually become the
| owner Of the gas properties" Mr.. Prem
dergast said that distrust OF corporate
management had sprung up in the pub
lie mind and that this viewpoint was
teing constantly stimulated by the ne
cessities Of political charlatans and
lsdemagogues."
1.-THE time has arrived for some con-
structive effort to correct present condi-
tIons," he said. 1.-THE constructive ef-
fort should have for its object these I'M
portant considerations: 1) A,uniform-
ly adequate and satisfactory service
CD measures which will fairly protect
all there is of genuine value in the
present great investment in the gas
business (3) safeguards for such addi-
tional investment as may be necessary
from time to time. and (4 manage
ment so regulated that the utmost econ
omy of outlay will be secured, and in
this way the lowest possible price may
be exacted from the consumer.
Must Satisfy the Public.
| Amy changes that may be contem-
| plated will be futile unless they are sup
ported by a satisfied public opinion. I
believe that the interests Of the public
| would be best served by the creation of
a single gas producing and distributing
company for the city Of New York. The
city should be made part of the new
| system.
THE exact basis for this partnership
I am not prepared to discuss definitely
at this time, but will say that in the
recommendations of the surprisingly
able report of the Transit Commission
| issued on September 80 there Is consid-
cradle suggestive matter that would ap-
| ply to the gas company situation.
I'm discussing this question it is
| just as well to face that fact that the

Puzzled by Varying Rates.

At the offices of the State Public
Service Commission 1t was said that Mr.
Prendergast's statement might not be
construed as a pronouncement by the
commission. 1t was said that 1t was
the chairman's personal idea, and that
the commission. as a body. had nothing
TO add to it nor comment to make.
Corporation Counsel O'Brien declared
that he would have studied the speech
before arriving in his office this morn
ing and would probably issue brief
statement setting forth his views upon
the subject.
Another member of the city admins
tration declared that Mr.. Prendergast's 8
proposal. il adopted, would mean the
consolidation of properties valued by the
present owners at about 5000. 0.0o0,0 900.

SOME ARE SCARED
ABOUT U. S. COURT
Whether There is Reason or Not
A Little Excitment is Always
Caused When Deputy Unit
ed States Marshal Pays a
Visit to Brunswick.

When the announcement was made
In The News yesterday morning that
Deputy United States Marshal Mad
dox, of Savannah, was in the city,
there was large number who at
once asked: "why?" The official
from Judge Evans court came over,
attended to his business and then
went back and just what will follow is
not known. He did not so to the court
records here. as some think he did and
hook up bootlegglng cases. and this
fact should cause some who have been
worrying since yesterday morning. to
rest easy.
As a matter OF fact. most OF the wit
nesses summoned by the marshal
from Savannah, are called on civil
matters, so he said. but, as a rule. dep.
uty marshals do not tell all they
knew. especially when they are inves-
tigating matters Of criminal nature.
A number OF Brunswickians viii go
over during the week, they having
been drawn on the grand and petit iu.
ries of the court and some others may
be "eslled" later.
