IT NEW writer's of American fictior
~ are better qualified to present
the early history of Kentucky
than is james Lane Allen, himself q
native of the Blue Grass State.
He chose as his setting for "The
Choir Invisible" that picturesque pc
Rod during Washington's administra-
tor when the Mississippi was just
being opened for navigation, and great
tides of pioneers were migrating
through the Allegheny highway to set
tie the sparsely populated regions OF
the West and South.
Lexington, Kentucky. CHANGING to be
directly in the path of one tributary
of this current, received not only many
of those who were abandoning the
cities of the coast for the untried ter
ritory of a newer land, but also others
who. having tested out the Utopian
western country and left there health,
wealth, and dreams of success, were
returning broken-hearted to the homes
from which they had come.
Hence in Lexington one encountered
persons Of every class.
It was a heterogeneous populace
high of courage and strong of forti-
tude, that amid clearing in forest and
~cane-brake laid the foundation of this
fine old Southern city: a populace not
to be daunted by discomfort, privation
or unceasing toll.
The heroes and heroines who thus
sacrificed their lives on the altar Of
civilization have. the author tells is.

BABY BILL IN
CONGRESS SETS
BATTLE LINES
Sheppard-Towner Measure
Has Stirred Nations WOm-
en- to Action.
OPINIONS ARE DIVIDED

WASHINGTON, May e-The Nations
women today are arraying themselves by
the tens OF thousands on one side or the
other of the controversy which Will go
into congressional history as the Baby
Bill battle.
Not for years has any piece Of legis-
lation before Congress caused such
widespread popular reaction as the Shep-
pardT owner bin for Federal aid TO the
States in saving the lives Of mothers and
their infant children, according to Sen
ators now working on the measure
Senators are receiving hundreds Of
letters, mostly from women, on the bill.
The sentiment seems about evenly d.
vided for and against the measure, Won
en- clubs, and some civic organizations,
have Endorsed It. Prominent men and
women have written their approval of 1t.
Just as many clubs and civic societies
and just as important public persons have
condemned IL. Meanwhile. the mothers
Of the country who don't belong to clubs
are writing their views in emphatic Ian
guage.
The bill which has stirred mp so much
interest is designed, Senator Sheppard
says. to reduce the high rate OF NOR
tally Of mothers and infant children by
instrueting prospective mothers in the
hygiene OF maternity and infancy.
This is TO be accomplished by Co
operation between the States and Federal
Government. States desiring to cooper
ate with the Federal. Government and
share in the appropriation provided By
the bill are to designate some agency to
work out an instruction plan. This plan
must be approved by the children's bu-
reau at Washington. Its approval en-
titles the State to q share in an annual
appropriation of 81, $50, 600 from the Fed
eral Treasury.
This money is to be used to send out
volunteers, lecturers, visiting nurses and
to provide lecturers at community cen
tiers. No one is to tie compelled TO re-
eeive instruction.
The women who are for the bill say
the instruction will save thousands OF
lives yearly at small cost, principally
along the people Of foreign birth.
It's opponents have many arguments,
among them being:
That the bill is socialistic and is aimed
at destruction OF the marriage institu
ton
That It is an entering wedge in cam
paigD OF Compulsory medicine"
That IL is a pork barrel bill
That Il viii not work because it pro-
vides for unframed instructors who know
nothing of the scientific or medical side
Of their subject.
That il is one more attempt to invade
the rights Of the sovereign States.

LET WOMEN BUY
COAL SUPPLIES
Speaker Says Fuel Shortages
Could Be Avoided by
Foresight.

The final session of the convention Of
the Indiana Retail Coal Merchants As
sociation was held this afternoon when
the principal address was given by DR..
George Otis Smith, director of the United
States Geological Survey, Washington.
DR. Smith, an authority on fuel eondl-
tions, revealed how serious is the menace
of another coal shortage and transporta-
ton tie-up this winter. He has just
completed a national survey Of the guam
tity of coal in storage. He recently is
sued warning that unless coal is bought
at once and stored there Is every indica-
ton of a repetition Of the conditions Of
1920
Other speakers were B. r, Inman, man
ager of the Indiana State Chamber Of
Commerce, and J. W. Clark of st. Louis,
assistant general traffic manager Of the
c., c., C. & St. L. RailEoad.
That Indiana women can do much to
prevent another coal shortage is the be-
lief OF John r. Longstreth, manager of
the Indianapolis office of Lake and Ex-
port Coal Corporation. Mr.. Longstreth
says that coal is one of the few house
hold commodities purchased almost en-
tirely by the husbands. And men, he
says, are not prone to be as forehanded
as women. Women, he pointed out, buy
their furs in August, buy their blankets
in the summer and preserve their fruit
for winter when fruit is plentiful and
cheap. They take care Of winter needs
long in advance Men, on the other hand,
are liable to put off from day TO day the
buying Of winter necessities and not un-
til the first frost will they believe that
winter is coming at all.
IF women took a more active hand in
buying coal they could put an end to the
annual shortages and high prices" Mr..
Longstreth said. 1.-THE housewives of In
diana can save a lot of money in the
family purse and more worry If they see
that their men folk have the coal bins
filled this summer as early as possible
Legitimate coal producers and dealers
would welcome a more uniform buying
of coal over a twelve-months' period in
stead of the rush during the first winter
months. 1t would stabilize their business
and prevent price fluctuations, keep mines
working steadily and would not overtax
the railroad car supply. Coal men realize
that wild fuel markets create bad feeling
and are anxious to avoid stress situa-
tons like last year"

NO MARKET; SHIPS
CAN NOT BE SOLD
Trade Council Head Asks Mer-
chant Marine Support.

CLEVELAND, May 6.-"To sell the
American merchant marine feet, which
cost the taxpayers OF the United States
more than $4,000, 100000, is tmpossi-
bic. without revising our navigation
laws" James A. Farrell, president Of the
United States Steel Corporation, and per-
manent chairman Of the National Foreign
Trade Council, declared today at the
eighth annual convention Of the latter
body in session here.
The ships cannot be sold until a mar
ket exists for them, and until that time
investors viii not furnish the money to
buy them" the speaker said.
''The impelling force behind the con-
struction Of the great fleet was necessary,
and policy is thus perhaps a mislead-
ing word to use in connection with the
development OF American shipping. The
future Of our merchant marine develop
ment is at stake and its. present position
is the outcome OF haphazard efforts to
deal with a problem, the requirements Of
which necessitated from the beginning
settled policy and q well-d defined pur-
pose" Farrell stated.
American shippers are not properly
supporting the American merchant ma
rine, he said, and suggested as a remedy
that American exporters sell their prod
ucts laid down in foreign ports.
