ICLUB WOMEN ENDORSE DISSEMINATION
OF SCIENTIFIC BIRTH CONTROL FACTS

and extend it without violation of
the penal code
Mrs. Luckie said that Il of the
state federationS and 148 mdivid-
ual clubs had endorsed the mea-
sure.
The last two proposals before the
convention - that empowering a
study of the proposed constitution
al amendment granting District Of
Columbia residents the vote. and
the measure advocating nation
wide fingerprinting for the protec-
ton of every citizen'-were pass
ed unanimously.
The birth control resolution. af-
firming the federation's belief that
the mental and physical health and
yigor of the country demands that
legislation for the dissemination OF
scientifically regulated birth con-
troll information" be enacted. was
re-read to the delegates at Mason
ic Temple when debate appeared to
be getting out of hand
Dr. Josephine L. Peirce, of Lima.
O.. defeated candidate for the pre-
sidency of the federation, was one
of the strong supporters Of the
measure.
If the government intends to
control those families which are
on relief. why can't they permit
us to say something about the size
of those familieS2" she asked.
A New York college student.
Frances Dodge, proposed an am
endment which would restrict the
dissemination of birth control in
formation TO married couples.
We in college know that this
information can be gotten by the
unmarried and by those having no
intention of marriage, so We sug-
gest an amendment to this resolu-
ton asking that it be restricted
either 10 married people or those
who intend TO marry she urged.
A Florida delegate who explained
that we feel that this informa-
ton should be allowed 10 come by
mail. freight or express" was ap-
Iauded.
Other speakers condemned the
penal code in its application 10
birth control as class legislation
and one pledged that legalization
of such dissemination will tend
TO increase the morality of the ma
ton
Opponents of the measure ex-
pressed doubts that contraceptive
information, even if made legally
available, would gain widespread
use among persons on relief.

FIRE CHIEF GETS DOUBLE CROSS
FROM MAN ACROSS TFIE STREET

This morning on the editors
desk, was a note, signed and at
tested by the man across the street,
informing us that he, too, had seen
his fish-pole borrower on his re-
turn, with the result that he had
come to these conclusions: Older
men ought to take q walk in the
park and leave the fishing to young
fellows; it is better to take the tag
of a fish-selling concern off the
one single fish a person has, as the
story sticks better without the tag;
mollycoddles who get seaSick ought
to stay on land and keep away
from the sea, sissies who howl all
night long because they get a lit
tie bit sun-burned ought TO put
on rompers and they certainly
should be run out of Imperial Val-
ley where real men take the sun
and like it."
The Press, knowing the inability
of the man across the street to
tell the truth. called up the chief
and showed him the letter We ac-
companied the chief to the place
across the street and at one time
thought he was going to stick the
proprietor in one of his own fancy
boxes.
We know the chiefs ability as n
fisherman. we saw thc fish. ana We
know the man across the street.
Mr.. Lemons can file for libel. ar

Don't Quote Me-
by United Press

WASHINGTON. June II, UP) -
The Public Works Administration
which celebrates its second birth
day Sunday has gotten up a flossy
map to show just how it has
changed the face of the land with
the SO, $3,7O0000.0O0 which congress
allotted to it.
The map is so crowded with pic
lures of PWA projects built or
building, that there's hardly room
for the names of the states.
The small eastern and New Eng
land states gave the PWA map de-
signers a good deal of trouble They
weren't big enough to hold draw
ings of their projects.
The artist solved the problem
partially by putting pictures of New
England works out in the Atlantic
ocean along with a chubby-faced
lad represented as putting up the
wind under which a whole squad
ron of navy vessels built with PWA
funds scud along.
When it came to Rhode Island,
however, the artist gave up There
wasn't any PWA project on a scale
small enough to fit the little states
limits.
Here's the way the artist de-
Scribed some PWA works-each de-
scription accompanied by a suitable
drawing:
+ Protection-Atlantic Beach gets
seawaI to turn Neptune's waves"
Flood control-neW leyees for
Old Man River"
"Indians-Little Sioux learn the
three RS here"-accompanied by
picture Of imposing new school
house.
"Water-For thirsty San Fran
cisco, PWA aid has5ened sparkling
water from Hetch Hetchy reser-
voir."
Defense - Here abuilding four
goodly destroyers."
Schools 81 Health-New schoo
above. new sewers under, Iowa"
It was noted that Louisiana was
not neglected in the map. There
was a drawing of the huge new
trans-Mississippi bridge at Baton
Rouge.
This brought chuckle to those
who attended Secretary of the In
