A world council to arrange for
controlling the production, manu-
facture and sale Of narcotics to the
actual amounts needed for legiti-
mate medicine is being considered
by Federal authorities here as the
next step in the fight to stamp out
the dope" evil that has grown to
most alarming proportions especial
ly in the United States.
The calling Of such a conference
by the Federal authorities, through
Congress or the State Department,
was urged by resolutions adopted
by health officers from every State
in the Union who met in Washing
ton last week.
Approve Jones. Miller Bill.
The health officers approved every
provision OF the Jones, Miller Anti
Narcotic bill, recently passed by Con
gress. which was sponsored and pro
and other Hearst newspapers, de
claring it to be a most effective
measure providing the government
puts its entire strength behind its
enforcement provisions.
There is sufficient legislation, with
the Jones Miller bill, declared DIR. +.

AMERICAN WOMEN ARE CARELESS

Women are too apt to overestimate

feeling well they take unnecessary
chances, which in the long run cause
much pain and trouble. Wet feet, ex-

and overwork will often develop
troubles which cause no end of suffer

LIBRARY is THE REAL PLACE
Bible May BE Placed There So That
All MAY Read IT


Detroit. Mich, June 30.-Whether
or not the Bible is to be placed in the
schools, the library already may and
should give the public access to the
literature of all religions. Paul NJ.
Paine, of the Syracuse IN. " public
library, told the meeting of the Amer
lean Library association here.
Nothing illustrates more plainly"
said Mr.. Paine the difference be-
tween school advantages and public
library advantages than the recon-
Bostwick's lucid article in a recent
Bookman that every form of religion
should have its able defender in the
public library
The thought at the bottom of the
suggestion is a common thought with
US. namely that the library is an open
forum, free, not only in the sense of
costing you nothing unless you keep
the book more than two weeks, not
only in the sense that one is as free to
go as to come in, and to stay out as
to do either, but rec also in the sense
which Milton meant in his great essay
on Freedom of Print, free for the
other side. full Of the raw material of
public opinion, free for opposing and
contrasting views
while we are waiting and 1t may
be a long wait-for common schools
to find some way to get the Bible into
the schools or to keep it out, to re-
store religion t. its form2r place in
education or to prevent any threatened
approach of the church and state,
we can at least keep on doing in
the library what cannot be done at
present in the schools. that is. we can
give to the public an opportunity for
private self instruction in this great
subject. We can let people know what
other people are thinking and feeling
about God and Christian ethics and
the soul of man and the hereafter"

quent release for pressing national
projects of a larger per cent of all
national gifts Mrs. John NJ. Hanna,

tinuation of the Dallas office was
favorably considered, but the south
west territory was finally placed in
the St. Louis division"

Cincinnati. Minneapolis, Richmond
and Philadelphia, have been closed
officially. Regional centers have been
established in New York, Atlanta, Chi
cago. Denver. San Francisco and a
