WAR ON DRY REPEAL
Anti-Saloon League Head An
nouncsss Campaign After
Election.

Warning that the Anti-Saloon League
will launch continuous and unceas-
ing campaign" for maintenance of con-
stitutional prohibition Immediately after
the election, F. Scott Mcbride, league
superintendent. declared last night that
"legalized liquor cannot exist in this
country without greatly hindering ma
tional progress, and we believe that it
is the will of America to stay dry"
The campaign. Mcbride said in his
final prediction statement, closes
with no new plan by the vets and no
different program by the drys." He
added:
The liquor forces are fighting to re-
store the legal situation which existed
before the eighteenth amendment while
the drys are lighting to maintain na
tional constitutional prohibition as a
uniform policy more effective than any
other against the evils of alcoholism.
Same Old Crowd in Control.
"Legalization of intoxicants through
modification or repeal of present laws
would mean the control of the Govern
ment by the same old liquor crowd and
lle ItSIOIdtlOu VI tlle SAME OIQ liquor
evils.
AT the national convention of the
Anti-Saloon League in Washington,
December II to 18, election results will
be appraised in relation to prohibition,
and Immediately thereafter a continu-
Gus and unceasing campaign will be
carried on in every legislative and con-
greSSional district to maintain cOnStl-
tutional prohibition"
Referring to the presidency, Mcbride
said: whoever is elected will be bound
to enforce prohibition as he finds it in
the Constitution and the laws when he
takes the oath of Office
Furthermore, he continued. 'the
nexC President can take no official ac-
ton in relation to repeal or modifica-
tion of the eighteenth amendment.
The question of which candidate
would be more favorable to prohibition
in the matter of enforcing existing leg
islation and the use of his influence
for or against any proposed wet legis-
lation will be decided by the individual
voter on the basis of the records and
declarations of the candidates.
Congress Only Has Power.
Second, Congress and Congress only
/ has the power under the Constitution

be delegated to party organization and

Most Maternity
Deaths Believed
Preyentable
BY DIR. MORRIS F1SHBEIN,
Editor, Journal Of the American
NEAS7inas A~anriaf tim


The death rates of mothers in the
United States during childbirth have
aroused great interest. The subject
Is being constantly agitated before
congress because of legislation planned
to provide increased appropriations
for education and preventive medi-
cine applied to this cause Of death.
Just as long as any preventable
deaths occur, the mortality rates may
be considered excessive. There are,
however, some factors which are
hardly comfortable.
In recent survey of this subject,
DR.. Haven Emerson, professor of pub
lie health administration in Colum-
bia university, points out some of the
factors which are commonly disre-
garded, but which nevertheless are
Of the greatest importance in cal
culating maternal death rates and In
classifying them as preventable and
those not preventable.
For instance, many calculators fail
to note the instances of multiple
births, such as twins and triplets. OBJ
viously the number of children born
Is greater than the total number OF
periods of childbirth.

If she has on the average less than
three children, she will run . greater
danger of death in childbirth than
when the first and other childbirths
occurred at an earlier period in her
life.
The tendency In modern times Is
for women to wait longer for mar
riage and for the birth Of first
child than previously. DR.. EmersoN
says that in some Of our modern
states within the past five years one
third Of all deaths Of mothers in
childbirth have occurred among
rather elderly women who died with
the first child.
The most important point made in
his analysis is the demonstration that
it is impossible to compare the rates
for the United States with those Of
other countries because Of the differ
ence in methods Of recording figures.
Dr.. Emerson is convinced that two
thirds Of the deaths in childbirth are
preventable. Toward such preven-
ton every possible effort should be
applied.

Profit From Weeds

Two weeds, one a native and one q
Russian plant which may develop in
to a profitable crop for some areas
Of this country, are regarded by
chemists as possible sources of insect
poisons which may in time take the
place Of some of the pyrethrum flow
ers of which we now import about
10000, 900 pounds year.
The native weed is Cracca virgin
lana, commonly called the devils
shoestring. This plant grows wild in
Texas and elsewhere, and has been
observed to be practically as poi
sonous, to some insects, as derris and
pyrethrum. Federal and state chem
lists and entomclogists are studying
the plant and are trying to devise
methods for extracting its poisonous
content In disable forms.
The scientific name Of the Russian
weed is Anabasis aphylla. Chemists
of the United States department of
agriculture have confirmed the pres
ence in it of two very effective insect
poisons, neonicotine and methyl ne
onicotine, the former being the lana
basine" reported by the Russian in
vestigators. The department is un-
dertaking the introduction of this
plant as a possible source of supply
for insecticides which would help to
make this country independent of
foreign growers.

some European countries the birth

the child lives until it is baptized
This may not be for several days
Obviously such calculation IS not 10
be compared with one in which every
child dying at birth is called q DEAN
or every child dying within the first

Expert statisticians have found that
the race of the mother, her occupa-
ton, her economic status, the age at
which her first child is born, the
period elapsing between two births,
and similar factors are of the greatest
Importance.
DR.. Haven Emerson shows that the
death rates of mothers in cities, TOR
both white and colored, are 60 to IS
per cent higher from puerperal sepsls
and about IS per cent higher from
all causes than are death rates OF
mothers in the country.
