REPUBLICAN CONVENTION

The Republican State Convention
met in Baltimore on Thursday last,
and adopted a platform avoiding s
definite stand on the Volstead act
after a committee fight had been
made to inject wet plank into the
document.
The convention proper was fea
tured by denunciations of Gov.
Albert c. Richie for his advocacy
of States rights and his approya!
of the Conowingo power project.
Congressman John Philip Hill, who
served on the resolutions committee
as a member from the Second Legis-
lative district on the proxy OF George
r. Brown, of the Fifth ward, upset
the smoothly running machinery by
he introduction of four amend
nents to the platform.
All the amendments, which in
oluded the wet plank, were rejected
With the exception of one which
pledged the party to uphold the
principle of religious freedom.
After the nominations had been
made and confirmed for Senator
,. E. Weller as candidate for the
Senatorial race, Addison e. Multi
Yin for Governor, William F. Broen-
ng for Acknowledgement, Charles F.
Goodell Comptroller, and Mrs. Eva
Chase-&or the clerkship of the Court
of Appeals, Congressman Hill moved
that the nominations be unanimous.
This was done by acclaim.
Platform Adopted
The platform as adopted reads in
brief /:
1--WE deprecate the promotion of
antagonism between State and Fed
eral Government. :. The plea
for States rights is deplorable and
mentally dishonest.
1--WE favor rotation in Office.
Irrespective of his private views,
the Governor takes an oath to sup
port the constitution and existing
law. Our candidates to
United States Senate and House of
Representative are seeking elective
Office having to do with the maxine
of laws and not the execution of
laws. Each has or will maze Known
his position on the platform. The
same applies to candidates to the
General Assembly
That Governor Richie demon
strated his utter Indifference with
respect to the vital interests of the
people of the tSate on the Conowingo
development.

AS TO BREAKFASTS

The Health Gnome who occasion
ally visits the State Department OF
Health is something of Quaker.
He gets concern" over things that
aren't going as they should. Then
he speaks out in meeting. He blew
in as usual, few days ago, through
one of the open windows of the
office of the Bureau of Child
Hygiene. Nobody saw him percheG
upon the edge of desk until he
whisked off his little green cap
thereby becoming visible. Then he
the kind of breakfasts children eat
| before going to school.
1--WE been dropping in on some OF
my small friends" he said, land they
aren't eating the right sort of break
fasts. Instead of eating some
fruit-a baked apple, some stewec
prunes or something of that sort
dish of cooked cereal with plenty OF
milk on it, a \glass of milk, a sofi
boiled egg, or slice of crisp bacon
with a. couple of slices of nice crusty
bread and butter, some of them rush
off to school without eating any
thing, or just grabbing something
off the table and swallowing it dowr
almost whole.
Zone morning last week, l heard
little fellow in a kindergarten tel
his teacher that he had had coffe'
and buns for his breakfast /! AnC
judging from the looks on the face
of some of the other children,
believe that more than half of Their
had eaten the same things.
"Now, of course, you know, ant
so do 1, and so do most people, tina
little children should never drinl
cup of cocoa made with plenty O.
milk, is good for them and will hel!
to make them grow. Milk toast am
cocoa make another fine breakfast
and give a good start for the day.
"The trouble with these children
is that they stay up too late at night
Then they get up late in the morn
ing; get excited about getting off tt
school and their breakfast doesn'
amount to row of pins. II littl'
children-and bigger ones, too, TO-
that matter-are to keep well, the.

eat nourishing meals, and must take
time to eat them properly. Those
are two of the best prescriptions
know of, for keeping sickness away
He wrinkled his brow and looked
very serious. Then his face Lighted
up. He had thought of some way O.
solving the problem. Ash the mar

''to put that in his paper as mes
sage to the children and Their
mothers"
There was a flourish of the little
green -hat-and he was off again.

ACCIDENTS AND THE
WEATHER

The Highway Engineer and Con
tractor, for September, summarize
results of study made by Dr. A
Snow, of the Yellow Taxicab Com
pany, to ascertain the proportion o.
motor vehicle accidents due to
weather conditions. Preliminary con
clusion seems to be that the hazard
of bad weather, which reduces the
number of cars on streets and high
ways, is offset by the hazard of con-
gestion in good weather, and for that
reason the accident rate does not
seem to be affected by weather
conditions.
A recent investigation of Maryland
highways disclosed that practically
none of the automobile accidents in
the state were caused by skidding.
In San Francisco, where asphalt is
extensively used on grades, city
records for 1921 show that only 3.8
per cent of total accidents were due
to skidding, and that rs per cent of
these were the result of carelessness.
Investigations of the Iowa state high
way commission during 1921, show
ed out of nearly 5000 accidents,
only "a per cent due to skidding.
Records from other sources bear
out these figures, which seem to
prove pretty clearly that skidding
may be considered only a minor
cause of highway accidents, and that
the type of pavement has less to do
with skidding than many persons
would lead the public to believe,
when seeking for cause on which
to blame an accident which is due
primarily to .arelessness.

THE AVENUE OF FIRE

Fires start from a variety of
causes; they spread and. become
serious, as a rule, because of unen-
closed stairways, elevator shafts and
other vertical openings. Such pas
sages are the avenues by which a
fire in basement or lower floor
ascends with appalling rapidity and
in brief space of time involves an
entire building.
By way of these apertures, super
heated air and smoke will fire every
combustible surface with which they
come in contact, actual flame not
being necessary to cause ignition.
Whenever newspaper reader en-
counters tale of loss of life in a
fire that has Quilted some dwelling,
tenement, factory, or other structure,
he may rest assured that an un-
protected vertical aperture was one
of the chief contributing causes.
Fire prevention has been called
+" fighting fire before it occurs" while
fire protection aims to combat it
after it starts, by retarding the
spread of the blaze.
If the practice of safely shutting
off stairways and other shafts would
become general is the United States,
as it is in European countries, the
tremendous toll of life and property
now levied by fire would be largely
curtailed

INTERNATIONAL GOLDEN RULE
SUNDAY

Sunday, December 5, will be OBJ
served as International Golden Rule
Sunday, at the instance of the Near
East Relief.
The method of observance will
vary with local or domestic condi-
tions, but, wherever practicable, it is
proposed that, on Sunday, December
5, all persons who are disposed to
make a practical application of the
Golden Rule in their own lives or
homes shall provide for their Sum
day dinner approximately the same
menu that is provided for tens OF
thousands of children in Near East
Relief orphanages items of thous-
ands of others in refugee camps, for
lack of funds, do not have even the
simple orphanage meaD. Having
placed ourselves in their position
for a single meal on Golden Rule
Sunday, we are asked to make
such generous contribution to Their
physical needs for the remaining
days of the year as we would like to
have made for our requirements if
conditions were reversed.
Who Are The Beneficiaries
The immediate ~beneficiaries are
the orphan children of the Near
East. These children are inter-
national wards-innocent victims of
the Great War in which practically
all nations participated and in which
their parents were our allies.
They are literally not only without
father and mother, but also without
country.
They are as innocent of any
crime and are as much entitled tc
daily food and the necessities of
life as are the children in our own
homes.
Their parents were killed or died
of persecution, exposure and star
walton in connection with the de-
portations of 1915 and subsequent
years, including the Smyrna and
Anatolia excavations of 1922-23
Many of the parents sacrificed their
lives in defense of the principle of
religious liberty.
They have no responsible relatives
to provide support Wherever rela-
tives can be found, the responsibility
for the support of the child is thrown
upon the relative.
They are practically all under 16
years of age; S1.6% are under IA
years of age; 61.6% are under II
years Of age. During the past year,
approximately $50 of the children
have been graduated from the
orphanages or in some way estab
lished in self-support. Those re-
naming are too young to be thrown
upon their own resources.
Most of these children are refugees
from Turkey. They are technically of
Turkish citizenship, but they are
now exiles from their ancestral
homes and dare not return.
They have no more claim legally
or morally upon the hospitality of
Syria, Greece or other countries that
have given them temporary shelter
than they have upon America,
Greece, Syria, and other countries
have given them safe haven, which
is more than the richer countries of
Europe and America are willing to
do, but Greece and Syria cannot
provide food and material support
for these orphan refugees in addition
to the enormous number of refugees
of their own nationalities already
dependent upon them. These chill
dren are wholly dependent upon out
side philanthropy.

DR.. Aurelia Henry Reinhardt,
president Of Mills College. Califor-

A. u. W., this morning warned But
Ter University students against let
ting social life submerge academic
learning, in her conversational adj

DIR. Reinhardt said there was too
much tendency in American colleges
and universities to put play before
work, although there were far
greater number Of students in Amer
lean than in European Universities.
DIR. Reinhardt is on her way East
to attend several important board
meetings in connection with the A.
A. U. w. She was guest Of honor
and speaker Monday evening at a
dinner given by the Indianapolis
branch of the American Association
of University Women at the Propy-
laeum. She gave an interesting and
personal account of her visit to
Brussels to attend the international
A. A. u. w. conference.
THE oneness of the purpose of
education seen by all those who at
tended the international conference
already has drawn the nations closer
together. This highway of interna-
tional intercourse is broadening. be-
coming smoother. And the women
Of the world have had much to do
with it." she said at the dinner.
