ILLINOIS VOTING
ON BIBLE READING
IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Ey CHAN DAVIS
(Leasei Wire Service to The Journal.)
Copyright, 1922


CHICAGO.-The new state con-
stitution was vo+~7 on at the special
election today and the question
whether the Bible shall be read
daily in the schools is likely to prove
a determining factor.
The provision inserted in the con-
stitution voted upon, is causing a
storm of argument and debate
throughout the state. 1t has
been suggested that if the constitu-
ton finally is rejected this simple
provision may have a great deal to
do with it.
1t is, of course, impossible to de-
termine just how the oople voted
on this single provision because
there are other controversial sections
in the document. But the Bible read.
ing provision must have a material
bearing on the result in the view Of
politicians who are watching the
growth of the religious controversy
now increasing in strength through
out the state.
Church organizations have taken
notice Of the provision and have
taken positive stands on the sub.
ject. OF the last organizations to go
on record one, a Catholic group, re-
corded itself in opposition, while an
other, Methodist in character, is in
favor of the provision.

WAYS To INCREASE
CALCIUM ARSENATE
TO Be CONSIDERED

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13-Lack CT
with the war on the cotton boil
weevil next season, it was disclosed
today by the geological survey in a
report of the arsenic situation.
The small stocks of calcium ar
senate-the heavy artillery against
the weevil-the rapidly mounting
price for that insecticide and an ap
parent heavy demand for the open.
ing of the campaign against the pest
next spring have resulted in coun-
Gil of war of the generals in the boil
weevil control war at New York to-
morrow. At a conference with in
secticide manufacturers there, ex-
perts interested in the fight on the
weevil will endeavor to find means
of increasing the calcium arsenate
supply for next season.
Stocks of domestic arsenic on hand
October l were reported by the
geological survey as 1920 short tons,
and the estimated output between
October l and May 1 next year is
placed at 8 400 tons. About 5000 tons
were distributed to southern cotton
growers in 1922 and B. r. Coad, ex-
pert in charge of the department of
agriculture's laboratory at Tallulah,
La, calculates the demand in 1923
will be twice as great as this years.
In addition to use in the fight on the
boil weevil, calcium arsenate is be-
ing utilized in mosquito control work
in the malaria regions of the south.
Production of refined and crude
arsenic in the United States this
year is estimated by the geological
survey at 10,947 tons. Refined
arsenic production amounted to g.
581 tons, valued at $1,486,000, or
ga cents a pound. Insect1cide man
ufacturers, largest users of refined
arsenic, began to buy it in quantity
in October while prices were rapid
ly rising. During this year the price
has ranged from six cents a pound in
January to Is IL cents in Deem
Der.
Though unusually large demand
doubtless is the principal cause or
the shortage there are q number of
other causes, the geological survey
reports. Among these are the reduc-
ton of the quantity of copper ores
treated at Anaconda, Mont, and at
Tacoma, Wash, the small supply OF
arsenical dust from lead smelters in
Montana, Utah and Colorado. and the
decrease in the imports from Can
ada, Japan and Mexico.
The present demand amounts to
II, 900 tons a year, while the avail
able supply in 1921 was only 6,455
tons. Arsenic plants at smelling
works in this country have an an
nuaI producing capacity of $4,000
tons, of white arsenic but their &C.
tual output must depend largely on
the plans of two smelling companies
that contemplate reducing ores and
speiss directly for their content OF
arsenic.
At Toulin, near Lovelock, New.
arsenical ores were reported to have
been successfully treated and to have
yielded some white arsenic this year.
This plant expects to produce con-
siderable arsenic next year. Other
plants in the west are reported to
be preparing for increased produc'
ton.

The Bethany Sunday School, OF
which Mr.. Wanamaker was superln'

said to be the largest Sunday School
in the United States. Mr.. Wanamak-

Of the school and brotherhood, and
that, when time permitted, he stud

BRIDE To
ASK DIVORCE AND
SUE BOYS FATHER

The marital tangle of Miss Peggy
Lewis, of Huntington, w. Va, and
Sidney Lanier, of Macon, who were
married in Atlanta on Sunday, No
vember 5, soon will be precipitated
into the courts. Ths bride is expected
this week to file divorce proceedings
to obtain her freedom, and at the
same time will institute a damage
suit against DR.. j. d. Lanier, father
of the young husband, according to
announcement Tuesday by Attor-
ney James H. Dodgen, who has been
retained by Mrs. Lanier.
The damage suit will allege that
DR.. Lanier alienated his sons affec-
tons from his bride, caused him to
repudiate the marriage and refuse
to acknowledge her as his wife. The
amount of damages to be sought has
not been determined, according to
the attorney, who did not indicate
what grounds would be, alleged in
the divorce petition.
Attorney William Schley Howard,
who was first approached by Mrs.
Lanier with reference to the case,
is still incapacitated by illness and
unable to take charge of the case.
Mrs. Lanier stated Tuesday that on
account of this situation, and be-
cause she desired immediate legal
action, she had placed the matter in
the hands of Attorney Dodgen.
Mr.. Howard, however, replied
Tuesday to certain statements attrib-
uted to DE-. Danier by dispatches
from Macon, in which the father of
the young husband is alleged to
have charged Mr.. Howard with as
sorting that the young couple had
been more or less under the influ,
ence of liquor when the marriage
was performed.
Il have made no such statement"
said Mr.. Howard, but merely stated
what Mrs. Lanier had told me, name
ly, that Sidney Lanier had taken
drink or two of whisky and had in
duced her to take a 'thimbleful.' All
[ know about the case is what she told
me; DIR. Lanier is talking at ran
DOM"
The husband is still at his home
in Macon, apparently having little
to say about the situation, while his
father, DIR. j. d. Lanier. has issued
statements regarding the affair,
denying that he has alienated his
sons affections from his young
bride, but declaring that she can not
find shelter beneath the parental
roof
Mrs. Lanier. residing temporarily
at the home of friends, 63S Edge
wood avenue, insists that she must
have redress for what she terms I'm.
pardonable conduct on the part of
her young husband and his father,

ton even should one be possible.
Macon dispatches quote DIR. La
nier as declaring defiantly that he
has no fears of damage suit against
him for alienation of, affections, and
predicting that the outcome of such
a proceeding by his sons wife would
be very unsatisfactory to her.
