PAPERS DEMAND REFORM


 New York, March 5-(UP)-"You can't laugh off the rope around the neck of a dead woman," the New York World-Teiegram told Mayor James J. Walker and citizens of New York to-day commenting on the vice which preceded killing of Vivian Gordon and the suicide of a 16-year-old innocent victim. "A grave situation confronts New York" the paper said editorially. Tt calls for action, for leadership, for resolution. Jimmie Walker should supply all three. If he is unable to do so, he should step aside and let someone take the job who can and will.'
 That thought Is being voiced. 1t said, fin the speakeasies, drawing rooms, on the East side, West Side, ia all around the town. There is a feel- ling that enough is enough" The Herald Tribune. a morning re- publican newspaper, said the tragedy was "in some measure the fault of every one." It pictured an innocent child of 16 ground up and cruelty destroyed in a vast machine of loath- someness and corruption, of sensa- tionalism and laxness, of graft and thuggery among police and politi- clans, indifference among decent peo- pie, and of indecency among the crafty, of kind of rottenness of soul and spirit"
 "The death of Benita Bischoff may be enough to blast this city into a sense at last that it is face to face with something enormous and of hideous ugliness," the paper added.

 on Vaccination

vaccination of school children. There ia no alternative left for anybody. Conscientious objectors have no way of escaping the edict except to appeal to the superior court.
 But the superior and supreme courts have already upheld the compulsory vaccination law. There fore. conscientious objectors have no opening now only to apply Tor legislation which would grant them some rights.
 The question of whether or not 10 have children vaccinated has been foremost in the minds of parents since the law was passed. While the children are vaccinated there are hundreds of cases which are carried out without the hearty approval or parents.
 Therefore, 1t is believed that at to- morrow afternoons hearing the measure introduced by Representa- tive Hungerford will be strongly urged for passage by leaders of the characterization organization or Connecticut. On the other hand, state and local health authorities are expected to oppose the bill.
