IT WOULD HELP SOCIETY “Regarding the advisability of in- dorsing a certain photo play, which deals with the propaganda of the al- leged advantages to society at large of permitting unfit children to die at birth, 1 would say that so far as my personal opinion and observation go, I believe it would be an advantage to society and surely save children much sutfering if many of these helpless children were permitted to die at birth,” was a statement made by Karl L. Schreiber, superintendent of the Public Welfare board, in an official communication to the National Board of Censors of Motion Pictures. Continuing, he wrote: “However, this is a new and delicate question and under no circumstance should the life of a child be allowed to pass away without a committee of thoroughly competent physicians acting upon the case. From the many terribly de- formed cripples seen on the streets and in public places, with but a re- semblance of the human and none of the intellect, cared for by devoted parents, or in institutions—all of this thoroughly convinces me in my opinion, The elimination of the un- fit must come about by an educational propaganda, but whether the photo play will present these truths in a fair and convincing manner, I am not prepared to say.” Omaha social workers are being asked for their opinions ofithe advis- ability of killing “unfits” at birth; also of the presentation of this subject in motion pietures for general distribu- tion. Omabha is being asked for its opinion of the wisdom of exploiting this theme in motion pictures. Auto Dealers Have Decided to Move To a New Location Omaha auto dealers at a meeting held at noon decided upon a new location for auto row. Tfiey will try to move it to Howard street between Eighteenth and Twentieth streets. This move was brought about because of increasing rents along Farnam street. The committee which has been working up a new location reported favorably on the new site and the dealers are going out at once to tr to secure contracts for the land, much of which is owned by the Kountze interests. The dealers ex- pect to build their own buildings and thus stop paying rent. Some Kad already arranged to move off Farnam street. Market is Slow, With Big Receipts Following the Thanksgiving holiday Omaha grain receipts were heavy, but the market was slow, wheat being un- changed to a cent off, corn a cent lower and oats Y@3j cent up. Wheat receipts for the day were: Wheat, 191 carloads; corn, 166; oats, 73. Reports were that there was a good foreign demand, with a tendency to higher prices in the near future, Wheat sold »t $1.70@1.77%; corn, 84@85% cents, and oats, 51%4@52% cents per bushel. Town of Five Hundred Springs Up in Ten Days The station of Parkerton, on the Northwestern's line into Wyoming, has been opened, with an agent, ex- press and baggageman and an opera- tor. Thirty days ago Parkerton was only a siding, but now it is a town of nearly 500, the greater portion of this growth having occurred during the last ten days. Parkerton is five and one-half miles west of Glenrock, and its sudden coming into existence is due to the fact that oil has been struck, not only in the vicinity, but right on the town site. It is _in the center of an oil field six miles long and thrce miles wide. In the last ten days seven pro- ducing well have been brought in, all within four miles of the town. At this time sixty wells are being sunk in the field. Utah Farmer’s Memon; Causes Trouble for Dyer Like the old story of the pitcher that pitched too often is that of Charles Dyer, Belmont hotel, say the police. Dyer is being held in the city jail on complaint of George Ben- farmer from near Salt Lake City, Utah, who says two years ago he lost $800 when Dyer induced him to bet on a “fixed” horse race. Bennett was standing at Sixteenth and Dodge yesterday afternoon, when Dyer approached him and renewed the old acquaintanceship and tried to talk foot ball. lnslea«] of listening, the farmer called police and caused Dyer's arrest. Former Omaha Teacher Dies at Qsage, Kansas Miss Ithel Leighty, former teacher in the public schools, died Thursday night at Osage, Kan., which has been her home since she left this city a year ago. Her last professional work was at the Franklin school. She is a sister of Mrs. Helen McCague of Omaha. Her mother is Mrs. J. N, Leighty, resident of Omaha many years and now living at Osage. The funeral will be held at Osage on Sat- urday. Breaksa()fi/c_asé to Mutilate Women’s Pictures The police are searching for a man who is believed to be a degenerate. He broke into the showcase at J.

ENGINEER BREAKS HIS LEG Passenger train No. 103, leaving Kansas City at 8:45 o'clock Thursday morning and due here at 4:45 Thurs- day afternoon, and freight train No. 164, southbound, came together head-on at Wolcott, a passing siding fifteen miles this side of Kansas City, at about 9:30 o'clock Thursday morn- ing. No one was seriously injured, but a good many of the passengers were considerably shaken up. The passenger train reached Omaha three hours late, Sam Geinsburg, traveling salesman for a Chicago shoe house, tells the following story of the meeting of the trains: “The passenger was moving along at about twenty-five miles per hour and as we approached Wolcott there was a shock, a sudden stop and the passengers in the car in which I was sitting found themselves sprawl- ing about the floor. Some sustained slight bruises, but none was seriously injured. Investigating, we discovered that at Wolcott there were three freight trains standing, all going south. Two were on the siding and one out on the main line. The con- ductor of the freight on the main line had sent a flagman ahead, but the smoke from the engines was so dense that he was completely obscured. Not seeing the flagman, the engineer of our train ran head-on into the engine of the train on the main line. Both engines were pretty badly wrecked, that constituting the most of the dam= age. None of the passengers was se« riously injured and none of them was from Omaha, so far as I could learn, In jumping, Engineer Ridgeway suse tained a broken leg and Fireman Clark a number of bruises. Both were of the passenger train.’ Man Found Dead In Rear of Saloon “Oh, let him alone. You ought to know that Joe never wakes up when you want him to.” Frank Kosiba made this remark ear- Ig Friday morning in the saloon of harles Kloch, 4201 South Fortieth street, when Mr. Kloch was shaking Joe szdck, 26, of 4020 South Twen- ty-eighth street. Joe had been found in a stupor at the back of the saloon where he had apparently been lying - all night at the bottom of a pit in the cel llrwa{. Kloch took Kosiba's advice and al- lowed Pyzdek to stay where he was. A few hours later, at 8 o'clock, Mrs. Kloch looked at the prostrate man and noticed that his face was blue. Further investigation revealed that he was dead. The coroner will investi- gate the case. Police information shows that Pyz- dek was drinking heavily Thanksgiy- ing day and attended a dance later in the evening. "It is their belief that after the dance Pyzdek tried to get. into the saloon by way of the rear door and fell down the hatchway. Mr. and Mrs. Kloch say that the ma1. was alive at 6:30 o’clock Friday morn- ing when they first tried to awaken him and when Kosiba urged them to “let him alone.” Suit for $150,000 Settled Out of Court The case of Mrs. Cora Kinsley, who brought suit against the Massa- chusetts Bonding and Insurance com- pany and the Illinois Surety company, bondsmen for a number of South Side saloon men, for $150,000, was settled out of the United States district court. Mrs. Kinsley alleged that her husband had quit drinking and tnat he was now taking care of his family. The con- sidcralign was said to be $500. Waddell Suggests More Stations for Nebraska Lieutenant Waddell of the naval re- cruiting station has recommended to the Navy department that four sub- stations be opened in western Ne- braska and South Dakota. At present there are only two stations in Nebras- ka, one at Lincoln and the other here, while in South Dakota there is only one, at Sioux Falls. In his recommen- dation the lieutenant said that a very large number in the western part of the state would enlist if there were stations in their locality. Twenty-two enlistments were reported from Ne- braska and South Dakota for the month of November. New Sunday School in“ Elmwood Park Section Under the auspices of the Congre- gational union of Omaha, which con- sists of representatives from all the Congregational churches, a new Sun- day school was opened in the Elmwood Park section last Sunday. The residence at 5511 Leavenworth has been fitted up with a stove, chairs and other things necessary for the school. Circulars spread through the neighborhood announce that there would be classes every Sunday at 3:30 p. m Editor of Every Child’s Magazine to Tell Stories Miss Grace Sorenson, story teller, will hold another children’s hour at the Metropolitan club Saturday after noon at 3 o'clock.
