Chief Judge John r. Pattison

CAPPER WHEAT
BILL L[SNAGGED

A fight developed today in the
House Agriculture Committee
over the Capper bill passed by
the Senate giving 10000, 600
bushels of farm board wheat to
charity.
Representative Hope CRO of
Kansas, a member, predicted that
the committee would kill the bill
because of differences of opinion,
especially as to its effect on the
wheat market.
Representative Jones CD of
Texas, chairman, however, indi-
Gated that the bill would be ap-
proved with many amendments.
These may include striking out a
definite amount of wheat to be
allotted to the Red Cross.

Hundreds of girls in their
teens are revolving slowly
around a huge roadhouse cir
cult of vice that embraces
the entire East, and by the
pitiful hire of their bodies are
reaping an unholy fortune for
a vicious gang of criminals.
Evidence already uncovered by
the Federal Government in its
investigation into the machina'
tionS of this white slave ring
shows an appallingly efficient
business set-up behind the traffic.
No legitimate organization with
extensive interstate ramifications
has smoother running machine.
Everyone makes money except
the girls.
Sold Like Cattle
Hard-faced young Magdalenes
are sold like cattle. They are
moved from roadhouse to road
house on the outskirts of virtually
every town of any size in che
East much as theatrical circuit
moves its troupes from playhouse
to playhouse. Just as theater
managers demand new acts, so do
the proprietors of these shady re-
sorts demand new faceS-and the
ring sees that they get them.
Getting behind the scenes of
this vicious business has been
difficult for Special Assistant
Attorney General Neil Burkin-
shaw, in charge of the inquiry.
The girls are in deathly fear of
being put on the spot" if they
"squeal," and majority of those
taken in custody here, in Balti-
more, in Philadelphia, and else
where are maintaining a sullen
silence.
The few who have talked are
remaining in Jail at their own
request because they know they
are far safer there until after
the Department of Justice has
completed it's case.
Enough has been learned, how
ever, to give an accurate picture
of the workings of the sinister
ring.
History of One Girl
The case history of one girl,
who was 18 last March, is typical
of all the others.
She came from a family where
in the father was dead and the
mother an invalid. She quarreled
constantly with her sister.
Then she met the man-the
procurer-Who was to link her up
so disastrously in the white slave

NEW YORK, Jan. 6
Michael T. Gottlieb, my tenn
porary successor as my hus-
bands partner in his 15O-rub-
Der match with Sidney S.
LEM to test the comparative
merits of the approach-forcing
and official systems of con-
tract bidding, was greeted
with a reception of command
ing hands for the opposing
players before the session
ended early today.
His succession of poor hands
did not injure his morale nor
that of my husband and by ad-
herence to system they were
able to avoid taking heavy pen,
altieS, a danger always present
when the cards are running
against you, because the urge
under these conditions is to
fight the cards" I was glad
to see both Mike and Ely re-
sist the temptation.
Lead Seen as Safe
Our lead apparently was con-
siderably reduced, but actually
the chances of our opponents
winning the match were much
DINNER at the close of the ses-
sion than at its beginning.
To win in the 13 rubbers yet
to be played, they must make
an average gain of 1000 points
rubber. This is highly i'm
probable.
Our lead, however, could have
been materially reduced were it
not for some Of the weaknesses
in the official system of bidding
disclosed during the nights play.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 10. Japanese plan for neutral ization of Chinese ports will be re- jected by the United States if placed formally before this govern : ment. The United States finds it difficult to believe that reports Of the project can be authentic.
 It appears to officials here as nothing more than a scheme for the partition of China, which was blocked by Secretary of State John Hays open door policy. Further, the American government finds it difficult to credit reports of the scheme because of the Japanese declaration of November g, assert ing it sided with the other powers of the world against the partition of China.
 Secretary of State Stimson would make no statement about the plan.

 Washington is aware that an un- revealed but adequate" number of Japanese troops are on the way to Shanghai with orders to blast out the Chinese defenders at any cost. The situation, therefore, is viewed more than ever as an open powder barrel liable to explode at any mo- ment, involving others beside the Japanese and Chinese.
 Washington still is unable to fathom what is in the minds of the Japanese general staff and upon that everything depends. If the Japanese general staff is convinced that now is the moment to round out the Mikado'S Empire, nothing will be allowed to stand in the way
