MOTHERS DYING
. NEEDLESSLY
"Our mothers are dying need


"Our mothers are dying need
IeSsIy."
A committee of the nations
leading obstetricians made this
report to the Children's Bureau
today after an analysis of the
bureaus detailed investigating of
1880 maternal deaths in IS
states.
For years the maternal death
rate in the United States has
been recognized as high, com
pared with that of other nations.
Sufficient data to explain the
fact, however, was not available
until the study made by the
Children's Bureau. Their inveSti-
cation covered every maternal
death in 13 states for two years
and in an additional two states
for one year.
A startling fact revealed by the
study was the large number OF
woman who receive no prenatal
care. The lack of such care was
declared by the committee Of OBJ
Stetricians to be one of the main
factors contributing to the hign
death rate.

OKLAHOMA OIL
WORKERS SING
HAPPY DAYS.

TULSA, Okla, Oct. 8 Q.N.S0.
An air of boom times pervades
the oil fields of east Texas and
Oklahoma. Whether it is justi-
fled doesn't seem to matter to
those whose lives are dipped deep
in the black gold that flows far
below thousands of giant derrickS
jutting out of the land.
g Officials of the big and indie
= pendent companies may be
. wrangling over codes, but the
people who live in and about the
oil fields seem to think good
times" are coming back. They
speak optimistically of $4,000
men returning to work as a re-
suit of the new deal, whether it
be in the offices of oil companies,
IN the fields, or in the filling
= stations.
- Money For More Men
e. The fact that oil production is
to be curbed doesn't seem to up
set them. They are more inter-
ested-and enthusiastic-in the
thought that new wage and hour
= Arrangements will provide money
= for more men.
Take this city, for instance.
Although there are no oil wells
visible within a radius of Is or
/, 40 miles, it is in fact the oil
capital Of the world. Here you
find the executive offices Of most
refineries. The city is proud Of
that.
'~ In 1909 Tulsa had no hotel
then set out to make itself useful
and cordial toward the oil in
dustry. Although off the main
: line of travel, it flourished and
. grew.
$4,000 People Involved
Today, at least $4,000 people,
out of a population of $1,000,
have something to do with oil in
-their daily business lives.
Now that they have Saturday
mornings off, even the clerks take
advantage of the weekly holiday to
drive into the country in their
flivvers, be they ever so humble
nearly everybody around here
seems to have some kind Of a car.
And to be seen riding about in
some kind of a car-spending
money on gasoline-is regarded
aS a gesture Of loyalty to the
industry.

BUNK ABOUT vITAlMINs

A lot of the propaganda going about
concerning dieting and vitamins is the
bunk, according to Prof. Solomon Strause,
well-known scientist, who declares that
the normal diet of normal persons provides
all the vitanins needed.
Ali this talk about vitamins, he says,
is something comparatively new, dating
only from 1911. Much attention has been
given to the subject. but even today. little
is really known about it. Manufacturers
OF yeast and special foods have attempted
t. capitalize the popular idea that vita
Minis are an alLimportant component of
ones diet, bs. many of the claims made
~ advertisers Of food fads are foolish
Prof. Strouse asserts that all nutrition
al needs will be met by a diet including a
quart Of milk daily. two fresh salads, two
servings Of ieafy vegetables, one serving Of
meat and libelsl quantities of butter, GER
eals, fruit. h.ead and water.
He adds that when the nutritional
needs Of people suffer because of poverty
Oh disturbance of the food supply. i'll
koa.ssa can apparently be traced to the lack
Ct something in the diet, but this does not
necessarily mean deficiency in any par
ticular vitamins
From all Of which it may be concluded
that almost any kind of wholesome food
provides satisfactory diet. SO far as
l4aaintaini9g health is concerned But fad
dists must have their fads, and Il following
q fad makes faddist happier, why not LET
him (oftener herr go to it?

THE cAREFREE HOBO

III this day IF government regulation
Of everything, aid lear Of transgressing
some favorite code, the life Of the carefree
hobo seen rather attractive. He doesn't
have to worry about meeting payrolls, nor
Ices he fear a boycott because he can't dis
play Blue Eagle.
There was big hoboes' convention
I in Chi-ago a &C pie Of weeks ago. and one
oi4ii9sy yhical delegate, known only by the
name of SIN told in a few words the
story of ? hobo's life. Now the hobo, it
mist be remembered is different char
acter rom the common tramp or bum. The
hobo travels from place to place, but. he
is willing to work, and does work, when
ever opportunity offers.
The three classes--tra bum and
hobo-have been described thus: The
tramp is travelling non-worker; the bum
is a stationary non-worker, but the hobo is
travelling worker, who accepts seasonable
or temporary employment wherever he can
get it.
But let Slim tell about the hobo in
his own words. He says:
The hobo may be defined as the stiff
who built the railroads and rides the rods;
who built the highways and hitch-hikes;
who stackes the wheat and eats stale
bread, who moved the hay and sleeps on
it. About the only surplus remuneration
he ever received for his essential services
was lis freedom, and he will not easily part
with it"
And, come to think of it, there are
some compensations for the hobo's rather
precarious existence He doesn't have
TO dress up in uncomfortable clothes; he
doesn't have to conform to a lot Of foolish
social customs; he doesn't have to listen to
luncheon club orators or other speakers
who bore us superior folks stiff. Maybe
it's fun to be hobo, after all

SPEND AND SAVE NOW

A recent Dun & Bradstreet report ac-
centuated fact of the utmost Importance:
For q number of months business re-
covary has continued without recession,
and present signs do not indicate that any
recession vii occur in the near future.
In other words. we are not having 8
rise in the depression" now. We are ac-
tually throwing off depression. The wise
property-owner will do we'll to think that
over. II means that the country IS through
with bargain prices for commodities and
services. that the terrific oversupply OF
goods and labor isn't going to last much
longer. II means higher prices. Il means
that If We put off fixing our houses and
business property or rebuilding the totter-
ring garage for another few months, we
are going to pay lot more for what we
get.
Yes, it's time to build. to improve, to
repair. II will put money in your pocket,
save valuable properly from going to
pieces-and demonstrate your faith in thu
maxim that Investment and Employment
are Cheaper and Better than Charity.

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-The stock
market opened strong and active to-
day as decline of the dollar, in re-
lation to other foreign currencies,
continued.
There was a preponderance of in
flation psychology in Wall Street.
Many traders expected something
further TO be announced that would
aid inflationary plans. Already the
dollar dropped to 6235 cents in re-
lation to gold here, 6296 cents in
relation to the pound sterling on
basis of today's London gold price
and 1922 cents in relation to the
French franc.
Meanwhile the better tone in the
street was aided by announcement
that bank clearingS for the week
ended Nov. 8 were 24.2 per cent bet
ter than the corresponding week of
1882.
Cotton felt the inflationary en-
thusiasm and opened 20 to so cents
a bale higher.
Opening of the stock market was
marked by blocks of 1000 to 5000
shares with prices fractionally to
almost 2 points higher. Almost all
groups shared with leading issues.
U. S. Steel was up y at 42A on
1000 block sale. j. 1. Case was up
rs at 71A.
