Leaders of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs
will visit the Post Office
Department this afternoon to
see an exhibit of the type Of
obscene m aterials which
Postmaster General Arthur
Summerfield estimates will go
to million school children
this year via the family mail
box.
Mr.. Summerfield extended
the invitation yesterday at a
CIVIC board meeting as he
enlisted the aid of women's
clubs in his battle to end the
"mail-order obscenity racket"
The cabinet officer prom
Used to continue his campaign
against filth racketeers"
though he predicted they
would use the "pious cries of
censorship, freedom of the
press and civil liberties"
from "pawns who, knowingly
or unknowingly, sometimes
serve their cause.
II could turn my back and
perhaps be subjected to Jess
criticism" he said. II have
no intention of so doing"
Defends Ban on Book
In an obvious reference to
Lady Chatterley'S Lover" Mr..
Summerfield also defended
his recent decision to deny
use of the mails for the dis
tribution of a book that has
become notorious.
A Federal judge held that
the Post Office ban on the
unexpurgated D. H. Lawrence
novel was illegal and void"
but his ruling is now on APP
peal,
Without identifying the
publication by name. Mr..
Summerfield told tie women
that the Customs Bureau was
the first to restrict circula-
ton of that book" by barring
it from the United States and
that in 1882 the Postmaster
General had banned its dis
tribution by mail in un-
abridged form.
When the question of con-
tinuing the order arose re-

know a little of life" he said.
But ! haven't seen any words
written in public restroCms in
railroad stations acrosS the
country that were not used
over and over again in that
particular publication"
After consulting with his
general counsel, he con-
tinued, lit was clear to me
that my predecessor in 1882
was right when he issued the
order to deny it's distribution
by mail. So the decision was
made"

Mr.. Summerield told the
clubwomen that the sales

ity has doubled in the last
five years and. unless vigor-
ously checked. can double
again over the next four. The
Post Office Department re-
ceived more than 10000 COM
plants from parents last
year, he added.
While a good start has
been made toward hating
the trend, he said legislation
is needed to close loopholes
in the law which now ham
per efforts ito crack down
on mailers of obscene mate
rails to children.
He also warned against
being diverted by side issues
in the fight against these
merchants of filth"
There is no so-called CEN
sorship in stopping the use
of the mails to poison the
minds of the children OF
America" he argued,
Preventing the peddling
of pornographic materials to
children is no more a VIOLA
ton of civil liberties than is
preventing the sale of Ii
quor or dope to these chill
dren, or withholding automo-
bile drivers licenses from
them until they are capable
of driving"

Mrs. Graves, only 5 feet 2 and

Slated for
10Th Street

District Engineer Commits.
sioner A. C. yelling said last
night that Sixteenth street
NV, will be made a five-lane
artery with a reversible center
lane to help speed the flow Of
rush-hour traffic.
The f1ve-lane change will be
put into effect in about a
month, he said.
He noted that the scheme Is
similar to the unbalanced
lane system now in operation
on Connecticut avenue. Traffic
movement on that street has
been greatly improved, he
added, since the change was
made.
The new Sixteenth street plan
will be effective from the Dis
trict Line to Irving street.
o. Roy Chalk, president Of
the D. C. Transit System, Inc,
