WHAT is WRONG WITH THE
FAMILY" DISCUSSED HERE
David GOidstein Lectures on Di-
vOrce Evil Before X. of C..

There is nothing wrong with the
origin. form and function of the fam
lily, for it was designed by Almighty
God, whose designs are perfect" said
David Goldstein, of Boston, in his adj
dress Tuesday night in the Maryland
Theatre under the auspices of the
Oakland Council of the Knights OF
Columbus. ''The wrong lies in ire
hgion, in marriages that take place
upon the basis of mere sex fondness,
in the animalistic standards that dis
grace family life, cause the increase
in the number Of broken homes and
thus weaken the moral fibre of Amer
lea"
Mr.. Goldstein's lecture was entitled,
What is Wrong With the Family ~
and was, as previously announced, en-
tirely original in manner and form OF
presentation. 1t was interesting, en-
tertaining and instructive.
Before presenting the different
views of marriage and divorce Mr.
Goldstein set forth two standards by
which the family, its origin and pur
purpose should be studied,-the spirit
ual and the material, the Christian
and the neopogon standard.
Proceeding he said the Knights
of Columbus being founded on Chris
tian principles, being composed of
men who are Christians, having as
their object the furtherance of the
welfare Of Christian civilization, look
upon the origin, the function, the right
and the duty Of the family, and the
wrong now made manifest, from a
religious view point"
Opposed to this divine standard we
find upholders of materialistic, ami
malistic standard applied to the origin
and the obligation Of the family unit,
This standard is making Roadway thru
secular colleges and universities and
in radical circles by being set forth as
rationalistic, as scientific AS a mat
ter of fact it is a standard based upon
a mechanistic theory of the origin of
the family that is as far from being
scientific as was the sO-called scien-
tifc theory Of spontaneous generation
which Louis Pasteur smashed to
smithereens, after a century of brazen
assumption that it had dethroned
God"
The lecturer spoke of the number of
persons appearing on the public plat
form who spread vile doctrines among
men and women and even among the
youth. He did not charge these men
and women with the deliberate inten-
ton of degrading the human race by
their attack upon family life, but he
held that such intelligensia are so
STEPPED in the perversity of their ami
malistic cult that they do not appear
to realize the enormity of their attack
upon the sixth commandment.
He then fayed the teachings of the
Bertrand Russells, ex-Judge Lindsay
and the doctrinaire Socialists who mis-
direct the minds and poison the hearts
of men, women and children. Mr..
Goldsetin presented quotations from
these writer's and speakers to prove
his contention. He held that the ideal
land for their animalistic concept of
family relationship is Soviet Russia
"the land of Socialism applied. There
the dictators of the Proletoriat have
carried out the vicious principle of at

GOOD HEALTH WORK HAS
BEEN DONE IN CECIL co.
F0iIOw-Up Treatment Has Had
Good Results Among, Children

The Bureau of Child Hygiene of the
State Department of Health has been
reviewing the results of the health ex-
aminalons that were made during the
summer. Of young childfen who were
getting ready 10 enter school, and at
tention has been directed wherever
there has been outstanding need for
follow up medical advice or care.
One Of the first counties to report
on its follow up work was Cecil in
which cut Of the total prospective first
graders examined. 81 were found VINO
had some unfavorable physical condi-
zion and were in need Of follow up
care. A recent report from the pub
lie health nurse in the county shows
that practically all of these children
have been visited in then homes and
the parents Interviewed and the nee
essary care has been arranged foy.
Over half Of the children-43-had
enlarged tonsils; 81 have had the nee
essary operation for their removal
performed; others will be operated on
later.
Commenting on the plomptness
with which the necessary care was Sc
cured for these children, Dr.. r. H. Ri
ley, Director of the State Department
of Health, said: "The purpose of the
health examinations Of children is
two-fold: first, to find out conditions
that need correction, and second, to
urge the parents to do something
about it. When the children are ex-
amined, special attention is paid to
conditions indicating undernourish-
ment; to the throat and nose; to the
sight and hearing; to posture; to the
teeth, and to the general health.
Prompt follow up care will help to
clear up unfavorable conditions and to
protect the children from physical
handicaps and from conditions tina
open the way for disease"
Regional Health conferences.
A series Of monthly health con-
ferences in different parts of the
State, for health officers. public health
nurses, and others interested in health
activities, has been arranged by DR.. R.
H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment Of Health. The first meet
ing Of the series was held on Decem-
Der Z at Upper Marlboro and was par
ticipated in by representatives Of

RUM0R BRITAIN
may VOID PACT

LONDON, Sept. with the OBJ
jections of the United States made
Enthusiastically clear, the British Cab
met is planning to nullify it's arms
pact with France, according to ru-
mors widely circulated here.
The rumored action on the part of
the Cabinet in no way lessons the
hostility between Great Britain and
the United States, according to we'll
informed opinion. 1t merely means
if the rumors are correct that the
British government finds it mad
visable at the present stage to carry
thru its pact. The terms of the
treaty leaked out in spite of every
effort on the part of the British and
French governments to keep them
quiet.
1t has also been suggested that the
rumored Cabinet decision may be a
blind for carrying the treaty into
effect.

MAN FOR SMITH
Democrats Get $500, 900
in One Month

Edward S. Hardness, financier and
high official of the Standard Oil
Company yesterday announced his
support of Tammany AL Smith. He
accompanied his endorsement with a
check for $4,000, which, democratic
campaign leaders hope will be but
prelude to larger sums before the
presidential election takes place in
November.
Coincident with the announcement
of Hardness contribution, the "of-
ficial" monthly report of donations
received was made by Col. Herbert
H. Lehman, director of finance Of
the National Democratic Committee
Contributions totalled almost half
million dollars-$438,919. 15 were
formally reported to have been OBJ
tanned by the committee in the single
month of August. This is one-sixth
of the goal set by the committee for
the entire campaign.
The contribution by Harkness is
one of a long list of substantial
donations made by powerful Ameri-
can industrialists to both twin par
ties of Wall Street.

LONDON, Sept. 7.-Officials of

succeeded in defeating the desire of
the Overwhelming majority of the
rank and file unionists to resume re-

investigating the $29, 100000 sewer

Gilbert C. Waldrop, long a bust
ness associate of D'Olier, and Henry
D'Olier of Bridgeport, brother of
the dead man, were responsible for
the assertions that gunmen hired
by sewer grafters killed the witness
rather than that he had taken his
own life.
Waldrop said that D'Olier told
him Saturday night before the
shooting that he was afraid. 1t also
was pointed out that D'Olier had
purchased a revolver-which was
not used in the shooting-for the
purpose of protecting himself.

Hundreds of striking workers now
gathering in picket formation around
the New Bedford Hotel where repre-
sentatives of the Cotton Manufac-
turers' Association and the official
dom of the A. F. of L. Textile Coun-
Gil are meeting in conference to sell
out the 21 week old anti-wage cut
struggle of the $4,000 mill opera

Thousands of pickets are expected
to arrive while the police are busily

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Sept. T.
Acting informally until today in
all their strikebreaking attempts to
grant the speed-up system to the
mill owners, Batty and Co., leaders
of the A. F. of l.. Textile Council
yesterday publicly conceded the vi
cious "Frieder Plan" system to the
bosses in accepting an invitation to
confer with them on the ending of
the strike. The invitation was tend.
cred to the Textile Council and to
the cotton manufacturers by the
Citizens Mediation Committee
Eager acceptance to confer is ex-
pected from the employers momen-
tarily.
The traitorous step of accepting
the invitation to the conference with
an endorsement of the speed-up sys-
tenn, was taken by the A. F. of L.
officials at time when the capital
ist press was compelled to print
stories heralding an imminent break
in the ranks of the mill owners

vance privilege of installing ar
