GOV. ALLEN ID FIGHT KANSAS
 ILLITERACY
Plans to Extend Education al Opportunities to Ob-
 scure Rural Regions
By KENNETH HARRIS International News Service Staff Cor
 reSnOndnnf

Kansas City. Kan, Dec 11-Now that the time is nearing when he will loosen his hold upon the executive reins of the "Sunf1ower'' state, Cover nor Henry J. Allen has started. a drive which he hopes will ultimately stamp illiteracy entirely from the state. Not that Kansas percentage of illiteracy is necessarily high-in fact, a recent cen sus revealed that it is only 1.6, com pared with one other state which, the census showed, has a percentage of 21.9.
 Governor Allen pointed out that the near future will see laws enact ed by the State Legislature which will provide for a wider dissemination of knowledge in the remote country dis tricts-the towns, ham1ets and villages from the big industrial centres.
 Statistics compiled recently dfsclos- ed that out of a total of more than 22,000 illtterate persons in Kansas were those of voting age. It was fur ther revealed that of these 1llfterates 10,45O were of foreign parentage, and more than 4,000 are negroes.
 Native sons and daughters of Kan sas point with pride to the fact that in the last 12 years there has been a decrease of 6 per cent. in illiteracy in their state, while census figures from several states for that period indicate a slight increase in ignorance.
 During the World War, when men were inducted into the military service of the nation, the various tests to de- ternaine and sft out the illiterates re- vealed some significant figures as to the number of men thoroughout the country who were not even able to read or write their own names, ac- cording to Governor Allen. These tests revealed that 75 per cent. of Americas Flower of manhood" were among the mediocre intelligent, while nearly 25 per cent. failed to pass the simplest tests and were classified as illiterates.
 The governor expressed himself as hopeful that his efforts to increase the intelligence of Kansas future men and women would have the sup port of those who succeed him in of flee and that they would "carry on" the battle to such an extent that Kan sas will within the next few years be an exemplary state - a pattern Of better education"

WELL KNOWN
 PRIEST DIES
Father Timothy Sullivan of East Hartford Was
 Popular Here.

Many local people will be grieved to hear of the death of Rev. Tim othy Sullivan, pastor of St. Mary's church in East Hartford, which oc- cured at 6 o'clock this morning in St. Francis hospital in Hartford Father Sullivan was a brother of the late Dr. James Sullivan, who for many years was a prominent physician here with an office on East Main street.
 Father Sullivan's death is the term 1natton of a splendid and successful life of praisew orthy effort and valua- ble and loving service.
 He was born in Colchester. Conn.,, about 51 years ago and received his early education at Bacon Aca demy, Colchester. He completed his studies in philosophy and theology in St. Bonaventre's seminary, A1eghany, Pa, and was ordained in December, l896, by Rt. Rev. Father Mullins, Bishop of Erie.
 He served curate at Lakevil1e, Waterbury and Portland, Conn, and m 1907 was appointed pastor of St. Joseph's church In Chester. He re- pained there three years when he received the appointment to the larg- CT church in East Hartford
 He is survived by his mother, three sisters and one brother.
 Father Sullivan was well known fere and was a frequent visitor to this city, while his brother was practicong here. He was also popular with the clergy in this city and was a particu- lar friend of Rev. Patrick J. McGiv- who will deliver the eulogy at the fu- neral, which will be held Wednesday morning from St. Mary's church in East Hartford.

Newark Prays for Dying Friend of
 Little Children

Newark, \. J., Dec. 11-Dr. Miller Royal Whitenack, friend of little children, is dying.
 Today. this man for whom an entire city prayed, lies uncon- scious and officials at the PreSby- tcrian hospital despair for his recovery.
 The physician who gave life to more than 1000 babies, has been fighting a brave but apparently hopeless battle with death since an infection acquired five weeks ago while treating an infant for throat trouble. He has been kept alive for the past two weeks by blood tFanSfusfon, hundreds of friends pleading that they might give him some of their blood.
 A gland was removed from his throat and his left leg was an- putated in an effort to combat sile rayaGes of blood poisoning.
 Dr. Whitenack, 47, was loved here not only for his great skill fin caring for children but for his charity. Fellow physicians de- clare that for 60 per cent. of his practice he received no reInuner- ation.
 Yesterday. people of all creeds prayed for his recovery at church services.
