JEFFERSON CITY, .Dec. 31.— ‘Mental hygiene in Missouri, the in- terest of citizens, the activity of the State Medical Association, criticism ' of political control, demand for bet- | ter administration and for a new Constitution which will allow for ex- pansions in public welfare are dis- cussed in the report of a survey | made in this State by the National Committee for Mental Hygiene. The | report has been submitted to the State Board of Charities and Corres: | tions. The report discussed what it termed unfavorable influences, in- cluding those leading up to. county eare of inmates and the unwilling- ness to levy State taxés, thus prevent- ing full State care. It said that “the widespread pessimism about the, treatment of mental disorders is not. shared by those who are most famil- iar with the subject. In 1889 the State institutions seem first to have. been considered adjuncts to the polit- | ical machine in power and since that) time political influence has been a aie Mae of Sentiment. The Teed of public sentiment, the | report said,. includes: “for abolition of the spoils’ system.

The problems peculiar to Missouri. ar: given as “lack of party balance, the backwardness financially and so- cially of certain sections of the State, an outworn Constitution and the cut- ting off to some extent of the interest “of St. Louis.”’ The analysis of the situation reported by the commission deciarea that Missouri is ‘amply able to as- sume the entire cost of maintaining its insanc, because the State is wealthy, with relatively small indebt- | edness and few State taxes.” Only 7 per cent of the funds for mainte- nance of the hospitals for the insane is supplied by the State treasury, the report said. State Policy Suggested. Supervisory agencies, the CGover- nor and auditor, the budget system, joint purchases, inspection of sup- |. plies, transfers, aliens and nonresi- | dents and the lack of supervision of private institutions are discussed in the report. Asa state policy, it sug- gests that the general responsibility | for all of the insane should be lodged in some state agency. Defects of organization in the state hospital system, as named by) the commission, include lack of se- | curity of tenure due to political changes; co-ordination of officers, instead of subordination; inadequate | galaries for officers and restricted | wace for attendants; need of a wom-| an physician on each staff, and in- sufficient attendants for the patients. Under the heading of defects of ad- ministration, the report mentions the lack of oversight of patients on pa- role, lack of trained nurses, excessive restraint, deficient hospit and need of more attention to die- taries. ’ “The defense of county care is usually that it saves the county Mentioned. of Trained: Nurses, Excessive Restraint pr ulwark than professional as: ' records | 'Texas led all States in the Union in had restored him to title. to his Southmoor | | place which was sold two years ago. | by the Sheriff for a painter’s bill of | °$54 plus costs which made the total | $89.

With the present attitude of labor there seems less chance for a reduction in building costs due _ to *‘ lower wages; and with this same atti- tude affecting 90 per cent of the cost of building materials there seems small chance for a reduc- tion in the price of building ma- terials. The country is so far un- derbuilt that prices have become subsidiary to necessity. “We know of no other major influence which can bring a marked or immediate reduction in building costs, and our ma- ture judgment is that there will be no substantial reduction for several years to come.” The above is from “The Build-. ers Bulletin,” a periodical issued by the Building Industries Asso- ciation, of which A.’ Boeckeler, president of the Boeckeler Lum- ber Co., ts president.

De Valera effected his landing on Irish soil this morning, Boland said. A message of farewell to Ameriea, dictated by De Valera before his de- parture from this country, was made public today by Boland. The message follows: “‘Land-of the free and home of the bravé— farewell!

Disappeared Early This Month. De Valera, who had been touring the country in behalf of .the Sinn Fein cause, dropped out of sight early in December, after an an- nounced illness. For several days he received news- paper men at his “sick bed,” and it then became known that his effects had been removed from the hotel a few days after his disappearance. Reports of his departure for Ireland became insistent. These rumors, however, were quieted when his sec~ retary announced that he had “gone into hiding surrounded by a strong Sinn Fein bodyguard,” to rest after strenuous exertious which had re- sulted in his illness. ' It was announced that he wothd come out of hiding in this city Christmas day. When he failed te reapbear, Boland announced he much embarrassed, and finally @fi- nounced he was unable to say wheth- er the Irish leader was on this side of the Atlantic or the other. , Boland declared it would be tres~ son for him to disclose how his chief left this country, but intimated that he sailed from a United States port. “I am not only gratified buf proud of the arrival of my Presi- dent,” said Boland. “It was no easy task for him to evade the watchful enemies of Ireland.

Regulation of - the closing hours of saloons, pool halis and other places. Such an ordinance and whose letters are postmarked /a with the date of Dec. 31, will not incur any delinquency penalty. The penalty for delinquents is an addi- tion of 1 per cent a month. This year’s tax levy is $20,168,- 481.83, and while delinquent taxes were first figured at $2,000,000, it is now feared that they will come nearer $3,000,000. Last year’s col- lections, up to the close of business Dec. 31, were $15,933,613,05. The largest taxpaying concerns make an annual practice of sending in their checks on the last day of the year. The amounts which it is expected to receive today from these corporations, at the present tax rate of $2.55 on the $100, for city, school and State taxes, are: United Rail-1$9. ways Co., $530,450.58; Laclede Gas Light Co., $445,994.75; Terminal Railroad Association, $337,493.83; Union Electric Light and Power Co., $247,742.47; Kinloch Telephone Co., Five million dollars in one day was the mark which the City Col- lector’s office set for itself at the opening of this morning’s business. This would break previous records, but it is necessary, unless the de- Mlinquent taxes for this year are to be much larger in amount than has been anticipated.

Withers in an address of an undenominational gathering of business men at Foun- fain Park Congregational Church. Dr. Withers asserted that if the proposed bill is adopted by the Leg- islature it will have a tendency to put the teaching corps of the public schools under political control. “We have had men on the Board of Education who promoted the ef- ficiency of the school system by un- se\fish devotion to public service,’ said Dr. Withers. present board men of that type. but, lam sorry to say, this does not ap- ply to all of the members of the . present board. System of Nominating. “When the system of having the two political parties nominate can- didates for the Board of Education was adopted it was a good thing. The parties were evenly divided then and the school system had fallen into a bad rut through inefficiency on the part of politicians who had _ con- trolled its affairs prior to that time. But under the new charter the two central committees were deprived of the right of nominating men for of- fices with the exception of the Board of Education. “Furthermore, one party became dominant in the political affairs of the city. In order to curry favor with | political workers it became neces- sary for the dominating party to put | up some men for the Board of Edu- cation who would be in sympathy with their aims. Now that the wom- ‘een have a vote that party is going to ert still greater effort in selecting men for the School Board that will appeal to the 3000 women teachers, ' I do not mean that future members | Willmann to Make Daughter a Dep- | of the board will abuse their au- thority to further the ends of the politicians, but the politicians will at least try to create the impression that they are putting men in office who will provide better conditions for the teachers, who, through their home life, will control thousands of voters. Present System. ‘Under the present system there is but one thing that stands in the way of a political machine control- ing through members of the Board of Education the promotions and de- motions of teachers, and that is the Superintendent of Instruction, who, under the present law, is supreme in regard to that function. Incidentally ‘that very phase of the school sys- tem is responsible in a great meas- mre with the present. Superintend- ent’s unpopularity with certain mem- ? bers of the board. | ‘ “The matter of promoting and @emoting teachers must be left in the hands of an efficient expert and mot transferred to laymen board members, who have no idea of the - requirements of an efficient school ' gystem. The price of efficiency in the school system is eternal vigi- lance.”’ Dr. Withers stated that the public echool system is the greatest asset St. Louis has. He called attention to the fact that a recent survey by the United States Government had placed the St. Louis schools at the op, and said that when he attended superintendents’ course in Chicago 1st summer, when heads of public schools from* European countries as ell as every State in the Union were present, he found the others greatly interested in the St. Louis school system and anxious to adopt many of the policies in force here.

RICHARDS IS WINNER IN INDOOR NET EVENT NEW YORK, Dec. - 31.—Vincent Richards, national] junior indoor ten- nis champion, came through yesterday in both the gingles and doubles semi- finals of the titular junior indoor tournament. In the singles Richards had no difficulty in defeating William Aydelotte of New York, 6—l, 6—1. Jerry Lang of New York won the other semi-final from Harry Pickells of Flushing, Long Island, 6—0, 6—3. In the doubles Richards and Paul C. McHugh of Yale defeated Aydelotte and J. T. Tucker of New York, 6—1, 6—4, and A. K. Glore and Ernest Kuhn of New York defeated William E., Einsmann and G.

The Forest Park Golf Club has to deal with the Board of Aldermen on the question of finding a means, in order to several times, but a provision in the | city charter provides that no charge | can be made for using the public. park facilities. Revenue Plans Advocated. | Consequently it does not seem) possible for the Park Department to ‘charge for permits, as is done in the majority of other cities. One plan) suggested was to sell the score cards— to the players instead of furnishing them gratis. Another suggestion, was to make the fee voluntary, de-| pending upon the players’ desire to maintain the welfare of the public course. However, it is admitted that the most desirable action would be’ in the selling of permits. | It is impossible to learn definitely how much money the Park Depart-| ment spends on golf here, but it is far | The For- est Park Golf Club, an organization | of 930 players, each of whom pays'| $5 annually to help the course, spent, $1600 for labor last season. Mem-'| bership in this club has no other purpose than an altruistic one; as no’! privileges are granted. The city | rents the lockers and receives the’ concession revenue; but it refuses. for golf maintenance. | Course Needs Attention Now. | The public course needs labor more than anything else. No new construc- tion is required at present, and the stock of tools and seed is on hand; but enough men are not used to keep | it watered and cut. Last season the) working force fluctuated between | two and 12. 4 month ago 20 men were | putting it into shape and the mu- ;nicipal players’ hopes went high; but since that time 14 of the laborers have been taken away. A permanent! squad of 15 workmen will keep the'| public links in good shape.. Of the 48 cities which maintain | public courses, only four maintain) similar courses to the St. Louis links | and offer tne same privileges without charge. These cities are Louisville, | Omaha, Hartford and San Antonio. However, the largest number who Played in Omaha during one day was °®50: in San Antonio the same number; and in Hartford, 400. Louisville had 32,000 during the entire season, Against these numbers must be con- sidered those of the Forest Park | course, with 1800 starterg on one day and 126,000 players for the season. Boston, Syracuse, Bridgeport and Milwaukee do not charge for playing; but these cities have only nine-hole course, do not provide score cards nor hire professionals or regular cad- dy service, such as the club conven- iences offered to local players. Other Cities Have Permit Charges. All other cities charge for yearly or daily permits. Chicago adopted the | tax for next year and now charges ' $10 for the privilege to play at Jack-/| son Park and $5 to play at Marquette) Park. Cleveland puts the same tax | 'for a yearly permit and 50 cents for ,a single game. Kansas City and San . Francisco have similar charges; while | other cities average about $5 for the annua) fee. Minneapolis, Newark and St. Paul do not sell the annual per- mits, but charge for each game. This is the plan that is considered the best for local adoption. However, it is thought that a charge of 10 cents a person will raise enough funds to keep the Forest Park ways in good shape. Such a tax would be cheaper than any adopted by other cities. bl FOREST PARK GOLF CLUB WILL SEEK ADMISSION Officers of the Forest Park Golf Club have announced that they will sujmit their annual application for admission of that organization to the St. Louis District Golf Association. The latter body will hold its annual winter meeting next month and the application will be submitted at that time. The Forest Park club has sought a place in the association annually for the past five years. Last year it was thought that the bars would be dropped, but two member clubs re- fused to change their negative vote. -_—_-.o—-——_———- SECRETARY SECOND IN SIX CONSECUTIVE RACES When Secretary, the 2-year-old chestnut colt by Celt-Amenuensis, ran second in the first race at Jef- ferson Park yesterday it was the sixth consecutive race where tn he finished in that position.

JOSEPH PULITZER. Aprfl 10, 1907. . : / LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. The Cotton Survey. To the E4itor of the Post-Dispatch: . Your very interesting survey of con- ditions in the cotton section gripped my attention. I have just finished a tour of the cotton growing states. I. crossed that section when prospects were good and prices promising and I have spent several weeks in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas since the crash came in price. Your summary of actual conditions is very accurate, With the high price of production and the low market price for cotton the grower has literally hit bottom. I have known the cotton states thoroughly for more than a generation but have never seen conditions so serious as they are at present. Like all Americans the people bought and borrowed and lived on a scale which corresponded with 40-cent cotton. They expected that the rich gold would pour from the wartime vein always, so they lived accordingly. When the sud- den slump came and prices were much less than half what they expected every atom of hope perished. The catton at the Ah Me piled up at fiome will not be- gin at present prices to pry for the things | they have bought, eaten up and worn out. The vast majority have no credit: except what the cotton prospects afford, consequently they have little to carry them through this winter and absolutely nothing on which to begin another crop. Not only has the situation caught the cotton farmer, but the banker and mer- chant in the cotton territory is between } | laws? 4 | | the upper and nether millstones and is | BRweating blood today. The banker | loaned on easy terms as ever before and | the merchant sold on open account for autumn payment. money from high-priced cotton. farmer picked and ginned his cotton and then hauled it home to hold for better prices, The bankers’ notes and mer- chants’ accounts are unpaid and will like- ly remain unpaid. They have pressing obligations to meet. Some sections are in fairly good con- dition, while other large territories are in desperate shape. Some permanent or- ganized outside help is a necessity in nu- merous parts of these states. The ma- jority can perhaps pinch through this winter, but without the promise of help they cannot undertake to grow another crop. The lack of an open door of hope | to the farmer simply spells dark despair for both banker and merchant. This should teach the farmer in the cotton section the necessity of producing | No farmer It | enough at home to live. should ever depend on one crop. should also make him determined to get possible.

MOBLEY, Kansas City. Pay Their Own Dentist. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch: In fustice to the employes of the Union Blectric, will you please publish the fol- lowing. In your issue of Dec. 26 there eppeared an article referring to a dental clinie established by the Union Electric * 1... & P. Co., where employes of said com- peny were treated free. The writer of the article was either informed, or uninformed, as the sal- of the dentist is paid out of fees col- lec from patients, which also cover cost of material. The company furnishes office space and allows those employes who are on duty during the dentist's of- fice hours pay for time spent at the den- tist’s office. The above system will con- tinue until Jan. 1, 1921, when a change in the by-laws of the Employes’ Mutual Benefit Association becomes effective, al- lowing the E. M. B. A. to pay the salary of the dentist out of the funds of the association, which are derived jointly from the employes and the company. UNION ELECTRIC EMPLOYE. a Why Is It Done?

Wa) STERN NATURE. Nature is stern, uncompromising and relent- less; her rule is a rule of law; about her there is none of the gentleness, the tenderness, the yltelding of the animal mother, untiring in her efforts to care for her children. If the laws that Nature has laid down are transgressed, su‘fering and often destruction will follow. Sume of these rules are known, very many are unknown, but whether the transgression be intentional or unwitting, the punishment fol- lows. Often to our unintelligent judgment the punishment appears wholly causeless, wholly unnecessary, yet it is certain—and to our ey as cruel—as when the little child strays on railroad track just in front of the onru train and is ground to death. A‘iong the northern border of its range the Virginia quail may flourish for years, rearing its large broods, wintering in the swamps, com- ing out in the spring with but little loss to still further increase in numbers. At last comes a winter of hard cold, of deep snows, and some nignt toward the end of the wenter a heavy snowstorm buries all the broods of quail over a wide district, and the weather turning warm and then freezing, a hard crust is formed, im- prisoning them, so that they cannot escape. In late May or early June, after songbirds have come and mated and built their nests, and are hatching their young, a furious stofm of wind and driving rain may overturn 10,000 nests and hurl eggs and young to the ground to die of cold. On the islands of the Gulf of Mexico, where uncounted thousands of sea birds yearly rear uncounted thousands of young, there often come in the breeding season terrible storma, raising tumultuous” seas, which at last sweep over the low islands.where the birds have built their nests, chilling their eggs and drowning the young birds—destroying the increase for a year. We see these things happen constantly, but we do not know why they happen. Yet seeing them, we are able to look a little below the su¥face, and to realize something of our igno- rance of the unmutable laws that govern the processes of life that are constantly going on about us. Civilized man—disturber of the balance of nature and destroyer of every wild thing which he can turn to his own advantage—is only now beginning to learn something of the inter-rela- tions of wild life and the agriculture on which he depends. So far asin him lies he should en- . deavor to mitigate the harshness of nature to- ’ wards many of the useful birds and animals, whose old time refuges he himself has de- Stroyed. He should do what he can to protect these little children of the wild from their nat- ural enemies and from the hostilities of climate. —Forest and Stream.

THE FORDNEY TARIFF BILL. From the New York World. Se HE Fordney farm-products tariff bill, which has passed the House by a vote of 196 to 86, is proving too much of a dose of reactionary poli- : ties even for many of the high priests of protec- tlopism to swallow. The New York Herald calis The Wall Street Journal says it is “silly.” William C. Proctor of Cincinnati speaks of it as a “huge joke” and “purely bunk,” and | hopes the Senate Democrats at least will “wage @ | determined fight against it.” It is worse than all this. It is a fraud upon ‘the farmers, a knife laid at the throat of the coun- 'try’s export trade, and crooked from its first line to | the last. Its so-called protective duties on breadstuffs cannot protect the growers becat ‘these prices are fixed in the foreign markets for surplus American production. But they will caw retaliation in favor of Great Britain from — which buys over $1.000,000,000 worth of goc yunr in the United States. Its duties on misce neous food products, In so far as they can be m protective, will increase the necessary costs of Iiv= ~ |ing for a majority of the people in the special in- | | terest of a minority.

From the New Republic. se INCE November, 1918, the course of political history may be roughly divided into ree chapters. The first, which began with the sur- render of Germany and terminated toward the middie of 1919, embodied the struggle of Centra! and Western Europe against the actual overthrow of their politica) institutions by Bolshevist propa. , ganda from the East. The German and French elections ended that period.
