PREPAREDNESS IS
URGED IN SPEECH
BY WAR SECRETARY

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Fear that
America lis drifting back to it's short
sighted, careless and happy go-lucky
attitude of the early days of the
European war toward the vitality i'm
portant matter of preparedness" was
expressed by Secretary of War
Weeks in an address before the New
York post Of the Army Ordnance as
ISOLATION.
II have no patience" he declared,
with the groups of silly pacifists
in this country, who are seeking uni
versal peace through undermining
with their insidious propaganda the
ability of their own country to pro-
tect itself. What do these people
see in the signs Of the times to de-
ceiVe themselves into believing that
we can d4sarm while others arm?
In what way has human nature
changed since 1912"
Mr.. Weeks outlined briefly the
work that Assistant Secretary Vain
wright is doing in dividing the coun-
try into ordnance districts, presided
over by district chiefs charged with
the work of maintaining the produc-
tive efficiency of their districts.
This work, he said, would be
fraught with great difficulties be-
cause many of the plants, developed
by steel companies during the war,
were untitled for peace-time work
and some of them would have to be
closed.
IF the country were in a finan-
cial position to do so, I believe we
should subs.dize those plants and
keep them,' he declared. 81 do not
anticipate that such action can be
taken at this time. We are attempt
ing to work out some indirect means
to save these plants to the govern
ment."
Major General James G.. Hobard,
deputy chief of staff. also, addressed
the association, launching "a iron
ical attack on pacifism.
I'm july" he said, "a solemn dem
onstration with Haunting banners,
music and speeches was held in
Washington, in the course Of which
the president was urged to set aside a
no more war day for annual observ-
ances. The movement was said to
be nationwide. War was to end.
The dove of peace was to take on i'm
mortality.
I'm September the war drums be-
gan to throb in the Near East. There
was a rush Of troops AMI warships
to the cross roads of the world, the
city of golden horn.
1.-THE White House was overwheln-
ed with demands that our country
intervene in the Near Eastern situa-
ton, and if necessary Join England
in war against Turkey. Resolutions
were passed all over the country in
sisting that the Turks must be check
ed at any cost.
! "In a month the dove of peace
had grown spurs"

Mother, Given Girl Baby at
Hospital Claims Her Own
Was Boy-Authorities Dis
pute Story

JERSEY CITY, N. IA two
weeks old baby girl is in an incuba-
tor at the Mothers institute in Jer
sey City today, kept alive by liquid
food dropped through a medicine
dropper.
Officials and nurses at the Bergen
sanitarium say the child is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
Rich, of No. SO Dwight street.
Mrs. Rich declares the child she
gave birth to at the institution on
August II is a boy. She is substan-
tiated by her husband, who had
promptly sent out announcements
that Edward, Jr.," had been born
to the then happy par.
When Mrs. Rich was presented
with four-pound baby girl she re-
fused to accept it as her own and
demanded her boy. Nurses, officials
and others at the institution told
her the infant was her child. The
young mother talked with her phus-
band and then Mr.. Rich told the hos
pital authorities that a terrible mis-
take had been made and demanded
his son, Edward, Jr. When he did
not get the boy he sought the serv-
ices Of Alexander Simpson, a law
yer, and now Mr.. Simpson announces
he will bring the case to the atten-
ton Of the Hudson county Septem-
Der grand jury and will demand that
the mix-up be cleared up.
Hospital authorities say that Mr..
Rich had taken up the study Of. va
r.ous theories of predetermination Of
sex and had so convinced himself
that boy was to be born that he
sent out the announcements before
the child was born. Now, they say,
he is anxious to square himself with
his friends. The mother, the doc
tors say, was SO intent upon having
a boy that she belize / her child
must have been Of that sex. They
claim they told her it was a girl,
but when she referred to it as a boy
for few days following it's birth no
one corrected her for fear Of exciting
her and thus injuring her chances
for recovery. After a week had
passed and she had regained
strength, they say, they thought it
best to again impress her with the
fact that her hope for a boy was
not to be realized.
The Richs have asked Counsellor
Simpson to take legal action against
the hospital. They maintain that
their child was a boy and was sub
stituted either purposely or by care
lessness. The officials are firm in
their statements that a, grl was
born. In the meantime the three
| and one-half pound infant is putting
up fight for life under the care of
baby specialists at the City Mothers
institute.
If the parents disoWn and persist
in their refusal to recognize the child
as their own, it will become a public
charge, be turned over to the Poor
masters department and then farm
ed out to some family in rural New
| Jersey.
Meanwhile, the parents Of the only
| other four-pound boy baby at the
Bergen sanitarium are worried over
what might happen to their child.
They are Mr.. and M~e Harry Bren-
nan, Of 176 Mercer street, Jersey
City. The parents and other rela-
tives of the child are making fire.
| quent visits to the institute to make
sure the child is still there and has
not been carried off to become a
| material witness in the present mix.

Crop Diversification
Shown in Reports Of
Southern Farmers

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. &c.
1.-THE southern farmer is making
hopeful progress in his journey from
dependence upon a single money
crop, with it's one payday per year
at market time for cot on or tobac-
co, toward the indepe. dence to be
obtained by the operation of his
farm to Yield cash returns through
out the ear from the sale of truck
crops, cattle, hogs, poultry and
dairy products" says Fairfax Harrl-
son, president of the Southern raj
way, IL his annual report which
goes on to say:
zone proof of this progress is
found in a report by the Unit d
States bureau of markets that from
January /, 1922, to August 10, 1922,
there were shipped from the states
of North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia., Florida, Alabama, Miss.s-
sippi, Louisiana and Tennessee 107,-
298 carloads Of cabbage, C, teioupes,
lettuce, onions, strawberries, sweet
potatoes, tomatoes, Watermelons,
Irish potatoes, peaches and mixed
vuget lbles, compared with $500
ca. loads for the same period of last
year, an increase of 1860 carloads
or $3.50 per cent, and It's showing
was made in spite of the fact that
there was a substantial decrease in
production of Watermelons and
peaches because of. unfavorable
weather conditions.
"Other bits OF evidence Of the
same character are the establish
ment of twenty-six new creameries
in the territory served by the South
ern Railway system, a large in
ere in the production of butter,
the raising in south Georg-A of milk
fed poultry along the lines for many
years profitably practiced in east
tennessee, the placing On farms
throughout the territory Of more
pure bred poultrv than in any previ-
Gus year, and the growing of high
grad tobacco in South Carolina and
Georgia.
1.-THE movement of farm settlers
into the south, comparatively light
for several years. shows signs of in
creas:ng. Sound and conservative
colonization projects ere being
launched in several localities served
by the Southern Railway system.
Land. will be prepared for farming
and ogered on terms which - ould
attract a desirable class of farmers
from parts of the United States
where land prices, measured by pro-
ductive valueg relatively are much
higher than in the SOUTH"

UKRAINE EXPECTS
To RAISE NORMAL
GRAIN CROP IN %

KHARKOV.-Poverty and plen-
ty today run hand in hand along
the railroads in the Ukraine, a coun-
try once known as the granary of
Europe. There are bullying ware
houses of grain at some stations,
none at all at others, while beggars
besiege the. passenger trans at every
village.
The Ukraine this year as last can
not produce enough food for it's own
people. The grain crops for 1922
are only about 60 per cent of normal,
and soviet officials frankly admit
that outside aid from relief organl-
cations is necessary until next spring
at least, especially among the chill
dren in the villages. The peasants,
say the officials, are quite able to
take care Of themselves, excepting in
the scattered districts where there
was crop failure due to drought
or lack Of seeds last season.
There are splendid crops this year
in a few districts in the northern
part of the Ukraine-equally as good
as is normal times. But in the south
great stretches of land were affect
ed by hot weather. and there is not
nearly enough bread stuffs to go
around. Ukrainian officials say that
with the aid Of the central soviet
government they are making ar
rangementss to transport 100000
pools of grain from the north to the
south.
From districts where food has been
scarce even in summer, people have
been flockinS to the towns. AS a
result there are as many beggars
in the larger places as last year,
when there was crop failure. Some
Of the beggars are almost plump,
while others are as thin as can be.
They resemble the pictures / of
hungry natives of India, and appear
barely able to move about. III the

of India-gaunt, NANCY creatures
that eat ravenously even the cante.
loupe and apple Feelings thrown
| from the car windows.
In addition to it's fair grain crop
in the north this season, the Ukraine
has produced also about 100000
| pools Of beet sugar, three times
more than last season, but barely
enough for the 3O,O0O,OOO inhabi-
tants Of the Ukraine soviet repub-
! lie itself
! Ukrainian officials say they have
plenty of potatoes this year, and that
from present indications o@ the fall

: ly a normal grain crop for 1923.
! This, they believe. would put the
country on it's feet again.

sess physical characterisucs easily dis
tnguishable from those cf other ante
cedents. according to Dr. A. Hrdlicka Of
the Smithsonian Institution.
Reporting TO the National Academy Of
Sciences to-day on his study as TO
stature and head form in Americans OF
old families" Dr. Hrdlicka declared that
adult men OF that classification average
s feet sh inches In height, and adult
women nearly feet 4 inches, which is
well above the general average OF this
country and Is higher than in any large
group OF whites in Euro"e.'
THE head is OF GOOD size" the
speaker continued, particularly 50 in
the women. The form OF the head, how
ever, shows a great variation. indicating
only little tendency so far toward any
intermediate American type. The type
OF physiognomy shows closer approach
toward such type, though similar
changes are also observable in the better
classes OF England"
