were urged by the Rev. Paul Dresser
Of Bath, Me-, in an address on the
need for scientific birth control de-
livered here today at the annual con-
vention of the Swedenborg church.
He ascribed social wrongs, crimes
and a good share of poverty to in
discriminate procreation which pro-
duces children unfit for life and ues-
less to society.
1.-THE laws Of countries and of
churches favor the production of
many children the Rev. Mr.. Dresser
said. 1.-The state wants citizens re-
gardless of individual worth and the
church ever works for numbers.
an the scramble for numbers 1t
has been overlooked that the worst
evils, civil and religious, are due to
overproduction of the human kind.
1t is true that high percentage of
crimes are due to overproductiOn Of
the human kind. 1t is true that a
high percentage of crimes are due to
arrested development, and 1t is also
true that high amount of arrested
development is due to bad natal and

EFT, 1S. shot through the head by
Charles S. Gay. 90 year old veteran
of the Civil war. early today at
Londonderry. 10 miles south of here,
hung in the balance tonight as the
body of his assailant, dead from
self-infiicted bullet wound, was sent
to Nashua, where he was member
of the G. A. K. Post, for burial.
Hackett was shot down as he was
peacefully reading the morning pa
per in the home of Mrs. Wilbur
L. Barrett, who tonight was near
collapse as the result of the tragedy.
The men were said to have been
bosom friends but frequently dis
agreed on current topics of discus
sion. At times their arguments be-
came heated.
Gay was feeble in his old age, a
bit childish and sometimes given to
peculiar actions. For the past two
weeks he had been cool to his
friend.
Both Gay and Hackett were at
the Barrett boarding house last year
from spring to late fall and had
returned this year for another sum-
mer in the country. Hackett has
no relatives as far as is known. Gay
has son in Methuen, Mass, who
has been notified of the shooting.
DIR. Samuel J. Cogswell, medical
referee, ordered Hackett held in
the house pending developments in
his condition.
