Move Against War
Aided By Head Of
Children S Bureau

WASHINGTON, Aug. '2.-Yester-
day, in her office in the Department
of Labor, Miss Grace Abbott, who is
head of the Federal Children's Bu-
reau and who is also unofficial AM
erican Observer on the Commission
IN the International Traffic in Wo-
man and Children of the League of
Nations, said, in talking with two
members of the committee in charge
of the American Peace Award who
have been visiting the capitol to
confer with various persons and Or
CARNATIONS:
AN |, as III whose job is to dis
cover and promote the welfare of
children, interested in the 500, 900
award for a plan of cooperating
with other nations to achieve world
peace? 1t might well be argued
that how to secure world peace is
a fundamental problem in child
welfare. Since the war, the. United
States has been spending millions in
relief work in Eufope-those mill
lions have mainly been devoted to
keeping children alive. But hunger
is only one in that kingdom of evils
in which war has placed SO many
children. There are millions who
are fatherless; many millions more
who have been taught fear, d~istrust
hatred, whose education. and
physical welfare have been sacrificed
to equip more and more soldiers.
American children who were taken
out of schools for work in munition
and other factories were enlisted or
conscripted for war service long be-
fore April of 1917. The present
generation is struggling with the
question of how to meet the interest
on war debts: it is assumed that the
children will pay the principal.
All of US will hope Mr.. Bok's
offer may bring results. But what
ever machinery for cooperation
among nations is set in motion, If
it is really to function to prevent
war, we shall need certain guaran-
tees for children. They must be
educated, healthy, happy; trained in
self-discipline, to respect the rights
of others. to respect differences in
others. These guarantees are still
needed for many children in the
United States for whom we have
never secured that equal opportunity
to establish which this government
was founded; but for the prevention
of future wars and hence for the fu-
ture welfare of American children,
such guarantees are needed for chill
dren everywhere"

without turning.

Eyes, Ears, Nose and Throat

Eyes, Ears, Nose and Throat
Before the baby's bath each
morning the mother should pay
special attention to the cleaning
of the eyes, ears, nose, throat and
genital organs. The eyes should
be washed with a piece Of cotton
"a separate piece being used for
each eye), dipped in either boric
acid solution or normal salt solu-
ton. Either is made by adding
a level teaspoon of salt 10 a half
pint of boiling water, and keeping
in a covered jar.
The a r should mont be tam
pered with. Wash carefully around
the outside but put nothing in the
ear at any time, unless by the doc
tors orders.
The nose may be cleaned by
wrapping a bit of cotton about q
toothpick.
The mouth should be left alone
unless thrush is present. This looks
like patches OF milk inside the babv's
mouth but when brushed off show
blood underneath. When thrush is
present the baby may often refuse
20 nurse because of the soreness and
tenderness of the mouth. This comes
from not being careful enough in
the cleaning of the baby's bottle or
nipples, or perhaps the breast. The
baby's mouth should be washed out
several times a day with a soda solu-
ton or boric acid. The nipples of
the mother should be washed before

July wheat yesterday tumbled to

TRADING IN BONDS
MUCH MORE ACTIVE
Today's Prices Firm and at
Times Even Strong-U. S.
Issues Do Better.
by GEORGE r. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. July 1s.-Today's 8
bond market was firm and at times
even strong. There was also more
activity than in some time. Quota
tions for practically -all grades Of
securities opened higher and. while
day, tho general tone was very good.
There was even some evidence of a
better demand from institutions for
the high grade legal railroad bonds.
United States government loans also
did better. with especial strength in
the Treasury ~ s of 1852.
Reading General As were again
very strong on top Of their advance
Of yesterday. There was active bid
ding for both the certificate and the
undeposited bonds.
Another high grade bond which
was well bought was Chicago and
western Indiana As, now selling only
about one and one-half above the
low for the year. Although subject
to the prior lien Of the general IS
of 1882, these bonds are secured on
very valuable property. They are
now selling on a 6 per cent basis.
Among the speculative rails the
feature was the buying in large
plochS at advancing prices oil Denver
and Rio Grande refunding as. The
operation attracted wide attention.
The selling was said to come from
the west and the buying was report
ed to be all for one account and for
permanent holding. Baltimore and
Ohio convertible 5s were firm again.
Missouri Pacific general As were a
little higher and so were the spec
uiative favorites, the Missouri Kan
sas and Texas adjustment IS. Pres
ent earnings of the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas cover interest require
-ments on the adjustment bond and
the preferred dividend with a frac-
ton left over. Erie convertible d.
is improved slightly.
Foreign bonds shared the improve
ment. The change was not great, but
for the most part it WAS at an ad-
vance. The new Austrian loan re-
acted early in~the day. but that was
only temporary. There WAS especial
activity in the, Czecho- -Slovakia SIS at

NEW YORK. July 1S.-Trading was

Raw sugar futures. after opening

due to the fact. that they We're below

ried September up to $40, or 2 points

awaiting development in the spot
market.
In the refined market some brokers
had fair business to place at SIS
