A shadow of crime has come over the community which must not go unnoticed,” vaid Mrs. Philip Zoercher, clubwoman, who presided. “The suffering and sorrow can not be alleviated. The point is to save other women. We did not think such an outrage possible in our community. Have we not neglected our civic duty by allowing such a questionable . place operated in our community borders for more than a year? “If this has put 1 us on our guard and been the moans of saving other women Madge Oberholtzor has not died in vain.” “Strange Tilings” “IVe have been hearing strange things of late in pictursesque Irvington.

COST TOO HIGH, SAYS SKYSCRAPER PASTOR Rev. John Thompson Shows Why Poor Man Can’t Afford . % to Get Divorce.

CHICAGO. April 27. —Our present divorce system is ail wrong. It discriminates in favor of the rich man and against the poor man. So declares the Rev. John Thompson, pastor of the First Methodist Church, known as Chicago’s "skyscraper church.” And something ought to be done about It. he says, so that the poor man will have the same chance to find marital happiness as the rich tnan. “Divorce is now accepted as necessary in our complex social life." he says. “Yet there is gross injus tice in the way we handle the problem. “In some States getting a divorce is almost as easy as buying a suit of clothes or an automobile. And in other States dl/orce is almost impossible. “Under this system a wealthy person living in a State where divorce is difficult can easily go to Reno or Tejtas or some other place where the laws are not so severe and have his mariage annulled. “The poor "an can’t do that. He hasn’t monej nough to go to Reno or Paris or s >n.e other divorce center, and estab. sh a temporary residence. “Another obstacle the poor man faces when seeking divorce is the exorbitant fee charged by scr te lawyers. High attorney fees and court costs don’t bother the man of wealth who wants to have his marriage dissolved, but some times they make it impossible for persons of moderate means." The only solution to the problem Is enactment of Federal legislation regarding divorce, Dr. Thompson believes, “A uniform divorce law would make it just as easy, or Just as hard, to get a divorce in New York as it would in Illinois or Texan, or any other State,” he says. would in Illinois or Texas, or any other State,” he says. “It woulu give rich and poor equal opportunities for divorce, and there would be no discrimination against any class. “If such a law were enacted, bar assembled, desire to express ourselves in regal'd to the case of the late Miss Madge Oberholtzer. long a resident of our suburb, whose atrocious maltreatment and subsequent death constitute a tragedy fresh in every mind. “Be it resolved. First, that we extend to her bereaved family our heartfelt sympathy In their irreparable loss. “And he It resolved. That we declare ourselves stanchly in favor of due processes of law, We believe that every person arraigned before our courts for crime is entitled to a thorough and fair trial, and that he should at least theoretically be eonaidored Innocent unttl proven guilty; but we enter our emphatic protest against the custom of deliberately attempting to thwart justice by taking advantage of legal technicalities. In particular we protest against the release on bail of these men indicted on the charge of first degree murder. “Be it further resolved, That mindful of the forces inimical to justice that are always active when an alleged criminal is influential and wealthy, we appeal to all official agents in this case to have an eye single to strict justice*. “And he it further resolved, That as from our knowledge of Miss Madge Oberholtzer we do not believe that any censurable act of hers contributed to the tragedy that befell her, we would remind fathers and mothers of daughters that they have something at stake in this case, and that all such should demand in no uncertain tones protection in the form of swift and adequate justice.” Resolutions adopted by the Indianapolis branch of the Railway Mail Association, and members of the Tuxedo Women's Christian Temperance Union, also were made public.

GASOLINE FROM SUGAR New Fuel Is Developed by French Girl Scientist, Aged 15.

associations should establish a system of fees that would enable a man or woman of moderate means to obtain a divorce without going Into debt. “I am not in lavor of easy divorce. I don’t think a court should grant a man a divorce because ills wife refuses to get up in the morning and prepare his berakfast, or for some other trivial reason. "But when a man and woman are not properly mated—when their marriage does not have the sanction of God—society should not compel them to go on living together. “Divorce is no longer the society scandal that it used to be. The only scandalous feature about it is the separate codes for rich and poor.” There would he fewer divorces, Dr. Thompson believes, if society dealt wit it the question by education instead of legislation. “We have not reached any solution for domestic infelicities and unhappy and imprx.dent marriages,” he says. “We deal with divorce as a legal problem instead of an educational problem. “We don't educate our young people in the high purposes and functions of married life. Neither State nor church does anything toward making happy marriages.” British Birds in Japan LONDON, April 27.—Prince Takatstikasa has arranged to take a large shipment of British birds back to Japan.

DEAN INGE TALKS ON SEX, SCIENCE, GIRLS

Brilliant English Liberal Is Against Anti-Darwin Legislation. NEW YORK. April 27.—The whole world has come to know him as the "gloomy dean of St. PauPs Cathedral. .London." But the Rev. William, Italph Inge, ‘"most brilliant and liberal mind In the Church of England,” appears far gloomier tn outward aspect than In inward thought. He Is gloomy as a scientist Is gloomy, which is to say that he Is skeptical and inclined to challenge the doctrines of complacency. The joy of church liberals and the despair of conservatives, he admits than in America he might easily meet the fate of a heretic. He talked of sex-literature, the figures tn the Denlstoun case, birth control, science, the stage, ‘‘miracle healing” and eugenics In a manner that would probably seem gloomy to a confirmed optimist, but which could quite as easily be seen Intelligently logical, if skeptical.. ‘‘Social ostractzation” is his solution for persons who figure in such scandals as the recent penistoun case. ‘‘‘They deserve nothing less than complete ostracization,” he says. ‘■“l would not have them admitted to the company of decent men and women.. “It would be useless to deny that such people and such forces are at work in grades of English society, however, but by-products of an age vitiated by immoral no vela” ‘‘And what Is your opinion of the so-called sex novels?” he was asked. ‘‘They are doing no end of damage. These books make immoral uses of the word love and propagate the idea that the marriage laws can instantly be set at naught when the fancy of a man or woman turns to someone else.” “The young woman of the time —what we call the flapper. Is she a bit worse than her grandmother?” was asked. “I didn't know her grandmother,” was the witty response. “But the glrLs are steadying down. There was a time after war when

LESS ACCIDENTS ON RAILROADS; 10,613 DEATHS I. C. C. Shows Steam Travel Becoming Safer —5,129 Fewer Mishaps. Bn United Prma WASHINGTON, April 27.—Railroad transportation and travel is becoming increasingly safer, according to figures complied by the Interstate Commerce Commission. If the commission’s figures could be taken as a criterion of how rapid railroads will continue to lessen accident, it might be safe to predict that five years hence a railroad mishap will be a thing of the past. During the 1924 year of operation there were 22,368 accidents as compared with 27,497 In 1923, a reduction of 6,129. More than half of the mishaps last year and the previous year resulted from derallmepts. While the Commission ascribed no reason for the huge reduction, in accidents, it is generally believed that added employment of automatic control devices and more rigid and stringent methods of Inspection are responsible. Accidents resulting front derailments last year totaled 14,259, as ! compared 16,708 in 1923. Collusions totaled 5,166 against 7,116 the previous year. Locomotive j boiler accidents amounted to 46 against 67 in 1923. “Other loco- | motive accidents" totaled 766. compared with 971 in 1923. Miscellaneous totaled 2,141 against 2,636 in 1923. Death resulting from accidents last year amoainted to 10,613 as compared with 11,951 In 1923. Injured persons last year totaled 290,349 against 323,672 the previous year.

I could not have said exactly tlmf.” With the modem biologists Dean Inge fears that the more Intelligent people are having too few children and many ill fitted persons are having too many. “We are breeding from the bottom and dying off at the top,” is one of his pithy epigrams. The Ilev. William Ralph lug* But he hesitates on the question of birth control..

He expressed surprise that fegis*latures of various States in America should have ruled against the teaching of evolution. “The more serious effects will be on the legislators,” he obsrv@4 with his wry smile. “I should say that between Darwin and th* legislators, the latter are the more dangerous.” He deplores the tendency to challenge scientific discoveries. The attitude of many clergymen and churches in going in for “divine healing” Is seen by Dean Inge as a “dairgerous return to old superstitions.” “There seems to be an extraorv dinary revial of superstitions that had been thought discarded. Occultism, magic, spiritualism and so forth, enjoy a popularity which fifty years ago would have been thought impossible. There have been those in the church who have given encouragement to the craze for miracle mongering in the treatnrent of the sick. “Much mischief can be done through the exploiting of partially submerged habits ami superstitions which civilization hasn't had time to eradicate. This is not a proper study for the clergy, but belongs to the psychologist and men skilled in diagnosis. substitute sense and knowledge for ignorance and emotionalism.” “And what of civilization in general?” was the next question. “Civilization is not yet here.” With this ‘‘glooms” response the interview ended.
