(By The Associated PressD

London, Aug. 20.-Some inter-
esting and novel facts respecting
England's social progress and ma
tlonal health are revealed in the
current report of the registrar
general of England, a monumental
work of 531 closely printed pages.
More children were born than ever

corded. Never before were there
SO many marriages in one year.

crease, the number being thrice
that of any year prior TO 1919.
There was striking growth of
marriages of boys less than 20
years old. The number of young
widows and elderly bachelors who
married was double previous rec
ords, while the total of widows
under 25 who married again was
exceeded in only one previous
year.
Divorce increased by 100 per
cent over the previous year, and
was nearly treble that of any ear
lier date. The number of illegiti-
mate children was below that OF
war times, being 4.69 per cent.
The death rate in tuberculosis
was considerably lower than that
of any previous year on record. but
the mortality rate in malaria
greatly increased, while in mea-
sles it doubled. Cancer mortality !
for both sexes was considerably
higher. Infant mortality de-
creased, but the number of wom- |
en- who died in childbirth was dis
tressingly large, owing to septic !
causes.

CLASS CASE FOR
TAILOR SHOP Of
ANDREW " JOHNSON
Place Where Ex-President
Worked at Greenville,
Tenn, to Be Preserved
for Future Generations.
tBy The Associated Press.J

GreenYille, Tenn, Aug. 20 (by
the Associated Press THE state
of Tennessee and the city of
Greenville have taken steps to pre-
serve for future generations the
little building occupied by Andrew
johnson as tailor shop, the place
where he dreamed one day of oc-
cupying the highest position in the
power of Americans to bestow
upon one of their fellow citizens,
the presidency. F
The state legislature at its last
session appropriated $4,000 to
put brick shell structure around
the house, located in the center
of this thriving little city built
among the rolling hills of east
Tennessee. An additional sum of
$500 annually was provided for the
upkeep of the building. A small
home for the caretaker is included
in the plans. Both structures are
well under way.
Persons who visit the place will
not be allowed to touch the tailor
shop where "a. Johnson tailored
old clothes and new" for it will
be partly encased in glass.
Through the glass, however, the
thousands of tourists who jour
ney to Greenville every year may
view the house and parts of its
interior. They may see the work
bench behind which the youthful
workman piled his trade as he
bemoaned the fate that deprived
him OF an education earlier in life,
where he was inspired to achieve
ment; where the dreams of an ac-
tive career in public life took
shape and spurred him on to enter
politics at the age of twenty. al

Newberry case, gives in de-
tail the findings of the

Has suffered Injustice. e
Mr.. Hughes expressed the belief
that there seems to be a general
misconception of the nature of the
litigation and its result, and Sena-
tor Newberry has suffered in con-
sequence a most serious injustice"
THE conviction of Senator New

invalid; rested upon ground
which did not involve any finding
by the jury of moral turpitude; and
was effected only by most serious
Of the statute
which exposed him to conviction

upon his part and no matter how
high minded he might have been
in his conduct in the campaign"
The secretary, who as counsel
for Mr.. Newberry and his associ-
ates. participated in arguments in
the case fore the supreme court
further declares in his letter that
at should he borne in mind that
Senator Newberrys conviction In
the lower court was not based on
any charge of fraud or corruption
or of the use of money for any IL

Mr.. Hughes then explains that
the conviction of Mr.. Newberry
was based on the charge that there
had been an expenditure in his

ute by the state of Michigan and
that the federal corrupt practices
act made it unlawful for candi-
date to spend in excess of the limit

adds "even upon this charge with
