Society's Duty Stressed

OAKLAND, Calf, April 4
H.N.S).-"EducatiOn-Sex edu-
catiOn-is what is needed to pre-
vent such things. Under the
present social Set-up it can not
be done. This should be recti-
fled"
Henry M. Grant, eminent socio-
logist and director of the Sexual
Education Society, made that
statement today as he and other
sociologists and physicians dis
cussed the strange case of Fran
cisca Aniles Perez, 10, an expect
ant mother.
Mr.. Grant declared the question
of whether the young girl was to
give birth to child was not i'm
portant. He said:
"What is important is whether
or not this child is going to be
a normal child, and what means
society has taken to care for it.
Il know nothing of the girl
in this particular case other
than she is of Mexican blood.
1t is not unusual for girls of this
type to develop early"
Reiterating that he knew moth
ing of the background of the
Perez girl or the father of the
expectant child, Mr.. Grant de-
clared that in his opinion sub
normal parents should not be al.
lowed to bring children into the
world.

married, is in the Salvation Army
Rescue Home here awaiting the
birth of her baby, expected in

DR.. Olga Bridgman, noted Cal
ifornia sociologist, declared that
the case "is not unprecedented"
DR.. Bridgman said:
Crowded conditions and bad
training are found behind most
cases such as this.
ut isn't an unprecedented
case, for I recall that in an
institution in the Eastern part
of the United States a Negro
girl became a mother at the
age of g."
DR.. Bridgman cited the case as
an example of the manner in
which she said birth control at
present is working to the detri-
ment of the American people.
She said:
Intelligent people practice
birth control and have few
children. The unintelligent have
large families"

The white-haired woman, whose
book called the worlds attention
to the evils of child marriage in

the little girl but thought there

''YOu see, the difference be.

that Francisca'S situation has
the sympathy of society. We all
diSapprOve of the crime that
has been committed. In India
it would be a crime If it were
not committed"
"The man responsible for
this little girl is already in
prison. But in India, the
parents of a girl who has not
been married by the age Of
puberty are damned!
II have seen girls with shat
tered nerves and torn bodies in
hospitals, where they have been
cured only to be returned to

LONDON, April 4 G.N.S).
Samuel insult has cabled his
London lawyers urgently re-
questing that funds be sent to
him at Istanbul at once, it was
learned today. Members Of the

they had complied with his re-
quest.

attention of the World Court.

Although Turkish and American

sull's most recent defensive plea
was that, since his American pass
port had been cancelled, he no
longer was an American citizen.
Born in England, insult con-
tended he is now British sub
ject.
Word came from Washington
that cancellation of a passport
would not necessarily mean the
loss Of citizenship, and that even
if it did, insult still would be ex-
traditable, since his alleged
crimes were committed in the

Determined to leave no loop
hole open through which Samuel

escape, once he is placed in the
hands of an American official, the
State Department today moved
slowly in making arrangements
to bring the former utility mag

House Republicans today
planned to demand that the
Norris amendment prohibiting
politics in the Home Owners Loan
Corporation be written into the
bill guaranteeing 1000 million
dollars Of it's bonds.
The measure, which has passed
the Senate, was reported to the
House by its Banking Committee
with the amendment removed, de.
spite it's Endorsement by President
Roosevelt as part of his policy to
keep politics out of relief agencies.
The Republicans are planning
to offer the amendment in the

sponsored by some Democrat be-
cause Of the PRESIDENTS request.

Representative Steagall CD Of
Alabama, chairman of the bank
ing committee, while opposing
the amendment, indicated he
would be willing to see it go into
the bill. He said:
"The committee probably
should have let it go in. 1t
doesn't mean anything. 1t is
