MEASURE FOR STERILIZATION PUSHED AHEAD Reproduction by Felons to Be Curbed If Bill Passes. Following a p’/?a by two representatives to “save civilization” by rendering habitual or vicious criminals incapable of reproducing their kind, the house today passed to •second reading the Evans-Simpson hill, which would make sterilization of criminals an added punishment. Although the committee on state medicine and public health recommended the bill be passed, Representative John Masselink (Dem., Vigo) moved that its consideration be indefinitely postponed. "Why permit persons whose conduct is inimical to society and civilization to propagate their kind?” asked Representative Edward E. Elkenbary (Dem., Wabash), chairman of the committee. "The penitentiaries today are full because the American people are too merciful,” declared a co-author, Representative H. H Evans (Rep., Henry). "The bill does not provide that the sterilization shall be done, but may be done. We must do something to put the fear of God in the criminal classes or our civilization will go to rack and ruin. "We breed everything for better stock. We exercise great care in, our selection of sires and dams and labor under difficulties to produce a finer strain—for animals. Why shouldn't we do it for the human race?” asked Evans. His motion to table conisderation of indefinite postponement was carried and the bill went safely on its ioumey.

Powell suddenly became despondent, remarked that some day he might die of paralysis, added that he believed he would be “better off dead.” left the card table and drank the poison. The marriage, which was in New York City, of Powell and Mrs. Fox, divorced wife of a wealthy Baltimore packer, was a great surprise to his friends, because after an unhappy marriage adventure at Hot Springs in 1928, he frequently had expressed an intention to remain a bachelor. His marriage at Hot Springs, to Miss Lavinia Ellis, a debutante, was annulled after a month. garage~manTs~ target Blue Uniform Taken for Policeman's; Suspects Open Fire.
