London Women Faint in Bomb and Gas Raid Tests

Veteran Commits Suicide, Volunteer Test Viectim Dies.

By WEBB MILLER 1933, by United Pres June 15. — William James Grav. 59-year-old war veteran, hanged himself in his bathroom the other day. He had been gassed in the World War. Daily he had heard friends talk of air raid precautions and preparations. He became depressed and had dreams of airplanes strewing gas and explosives over London. According to testimony at the inquest that was why he killed him-

URGE GHECK ON MARRIAGES OF FEEBLE-MINDED

Doctors Tell A. M. A. Union Of Mental Defectives Is Social Hazard.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 15 (U. | P.) —Marriage of persons mentally defective constitutes a greater hazard to society than the occasional child marriages, two doctors told the American Medical As- | 80th annual convention today. | Dr. Charles P. Sheldon, Boston, Wauwa- | tosa, Wis, recommended rcompul- | sory registration of persons with in- | telligence quotients of 70 or less. They suggested that this in- | formation be made available to clerks and clergymen responsible | for marriage licenses and to courts |

dealing with criminal offenders.

| Studies of marriage laws show there | is little restraint on marriages of | | feeble-minded persons above

the | grade of idiot, the doctors said. “Fifty unselected married patients were studied in the free clinic of the same hospital in about four “Intelli- | gence tests showed that 22 per cent of them were feeble-minded. Birth Dates Compared “An indigent and self-supporting group were compared as to birth The | interval between births in the in- | digent group was about a year and

| nearly two years among the selfsupporting.

The infant mortality | rate in the former was 946 per | thousand live births, and in the latter, 40.9.” Dr. Sheldon and Dr. Ziegler said that although a sterilization cam- | paign must work slowly and ulti= | mately may be ineffectual, it may | be applied to certain individuals to
