COMMONS WILL
ADJOURN AFTER
T0DAY'S DEBATE
Unusual Recommendations
OF the House of Commons
Will Be Brought to a
Close This Afternoon.
05y The United Press)

London, March 9.-The House OF
Commons will probably adjourn TINS
afternoon at the conclusion Oh lhe
debates that have created uh-
precedented public recommendations
on the part of the government re-
lating to the governments i'll lndla
and Turkey. The Savres Treaty
with India should be revised and the
British should evacuate Constanu-
nople. The Suzerainty of the SUI
tan over the f1oiy pfdee5- tiits-he
restored and the Ottoman empire,
including Thrace. Andrianople ana
Svmrna, should be re-established, ac-
cording to the opinion of the House
of Commons.
The object of these recommends
tions is to mollify Mohammedan
feelings in the Near East. The dis
patch which was made public over
the wish of government leaders de-
clares the fulfillment of these points
is of the grayest Importance to In
dia. The Indian demands have al
ready caused the greatest emtarrasS-
ment for the British government.

Our children really suffer more
from ignorance than they do from
neglect.
"Oyer-excitement is a great cause
of undernourishment today. 1t
brings about over-stimulation. Bad
air in theaters, lack Of proper rest,
ill-ventilated sleeping apartments
and lack of harmony in homes all
react upon children.
Poor children sometimes have no
place TO play. Rich ones often sim
ply don't play. If the rich child
won't eat what he has and the
poor one hasn't anything to eat
the net result is the same.
Baby Death Rate Lower.
Our baby death rate is seventy
one per thousand now, lower than
ever before. Eleven years ago it was
144 out of 1000.
These mothers don't always rec
ognize an evil, but when they do
they are vigilant in combating it..
One reason that children are ill-fed
is that during the war we had to
change types of food through neces-
sity. And people who have become
prosperous eat too much ready-pre-
pared food.
"Our nder-nourishment problem
is different from Europcs. In Aus
tria especially there simply isn't
food enough. They have had to
devise ways of making the least
amount serve to sustain life.
"Before the war we had only 5
per cent under-nourished children.
Today we have 25 per cent. The
situation is serious, but believe
simplicity in the wisdom of Ameri-
can women"

plicity of the dairy to the delicates-
sen, with its rich prepared foods,
spiced meats, overseasoned salads
and sweets. We need more green,
leafy vegetables such as spinach,
lettuce. beet-tops and chard.
"Curiously enough, the same reac-
tion takes place among the children
of the rich as among the poor. The
well-to-do family may have a child
who is 'finicky' about what he eats.
He won't have the sturdy appetite of
the little one who is caught, dirty
and happy, playing about even in
dangerous city streets. 1t is because
he is too well protected and because
his exercise too often consists of a
walk through the park dressed in
his best.
When Child Does Not Eat.
ANY hungry child will eat unless
something is the matter. That thing
may be adenoids, diseased tonsils,
bad teeth, or eye-strain-ey trouble
often interferes with appetite.
Never force a child to eat if he
is free from defects. If he doesn t
eat don't make remarks about it.
PAY no attention to such refusal.
Above all, don't argue.
"If child won't eat regulation
breakfast of cereal, eggs, cocoa or
milk and bread and butter, say
but be sure he gets nothing
lunch is served.
IF he won't eat lunch don't give
him an opportunity to get any food
until dinner is ready.
"A child can go from twenty-four
to forty-eight hours without food un-
harmed. Then he will eat normally
if not fed between meals.
"Now, this may seem strange, but
if child takes his meals regularly
then it is all right to give him extra
things, such as fruit, bread and but
ter or cookies, between meals. That
doesn't interfere as it would if he
didn't eat his meals. That's the way
it works, odd as it may SEEM

PRES. HARDING,
CONTINUES HIS
FIGHT ON Bill
Repeats That Bonus Should
Be Financed BY Means
of Sales Tax or Be Post
poned.

Washington, March 9.-Concur-
rentfy with Representative Fordney's S
introduction in the House yesterday
of the revised Republican soldier
bonus plan, President Harding ex-
pressed in vigorous manner his dis
approval of the new proposal.
The bill under which the former
soldiers would receive deferred ad-
justed compensation or immediate
relief through bank loans, with tax
alton to meet the cost deferred, does
not appeal to the president. He has
not changed his mind on the bonus
question and reasserts his position
in the letter to Mr.. Fordney that,
unless the bonus can be financed by
a sales tax, bonus legislation should
be postponed w.
The president felt impelled to
point out that the arguments for
the new plan had not changed his
mind, disappointing as this would
be to those who think the attitude
of the administration veers with the
breeZes.
Whether this presages veto OF
the new bill, if it should be passed
without material concession to the
viewpoint of the president, is a
question on which there is much
speculation.
Introduction of the bill followed
an agreement on all the details by
Republican members of the commit
tee. A meeting of the full Ways
and Means Committee, including the
Democrats, will be held Saturday
when the bill will be reported for
mally to the House. The delay in
the meeting of the full committee
is due to the absence of Represcn-
tative Fordney from the city during
the next few days.
Provisions of Fordney Bill.
The Fordney bill provides the
same five options as the original
plan, but limits cash bonuses tc
those entitled to less than $50. The
other four options are an adjusted
service certificate, vocational train
ing aid, farm or home aid and land
settlement aid.
The new feature of the bill, as
worked out during the last week, is
that which permits all veterans tC

Austrian Savant Saying u, S. Mothers

Child Feeding Are Dis

New York. March 9.-American
mothers like to sleep and hate to
cook.
They don't know what is good for
their children to cat And they are
too lazy to tear themselves from
their m00rings-of a morning-in
order 10 learn what child thinks
about when breakfast time comes.
The malnutrition which axists
among our children today is directly
traceable to the mothers who are
deaf to alarm clocks and who send
off children TO school without a SIN
gle mouthful, according to DR.. Glenn
ems Pirquet noted Austrian pedia-
trist, VINO spoke before the Academy
of Medicine here.
DR.. Pirquet was in charge of the

feeding stations in Austria during
the war. He discussed his ideas on
malnutrition, comparing conditions
in Austria to those in the United
States.
Austrian Physicians Charges.
Here in America" he said, Il
find many mothers who are bad
cooks. They do not know. what is
good for their children, and if they
are met with resistance or indif-
ference on the part of the children
they give them nothing to eat.
MANY women are Of the opinion
that they should not force their
children to eat. They have been
told that if child is forced it will
not digest its food. That, of course,
is untrue Geese that are not at all
hungry are fattened in spite of
their lack of appetite.
Some children are not punctual
at their meals, and that is a cause
Of malnutrition.
But one of the chief reasons for
malnutrition is that mothers will lie
in bed and permit their children to
go to school with only mouthful
or nothing at all"
Dr. S. Josephine Baker, head of
The Bureau of Child Hygiene of New
York city, does not believe that
women place the luxury of an hours
extra sleep in the morning above a
child's welfare. In discussing Dr.

There is, however, just a scintilla

recognize the evils of malnutrition
or the causes of it. When she does
she will do as we'll by her older
children as she has done by her
