Women Study , Child ' Welfare PrepareJdness Is the watchword of potential woman voters, to Judge bv requests received at the Chil dren's Bureau of the U. S. Depart ment of Labor for Information re garding the most approved meas ures for child welfare. In response to numerous requests for suggest ions In carrying on a study of child welfare problems, the Bureau has Just Issued "Child Welfare Pro grams", a set of outlines for use of clubs and classes. These programs are comprised under 5 heads: The Community and the Child: Child Welfare In Rural and Village Communities; The Care of the Mother, the Baby and the Young Child; Detailed Outlines on Infant Mortalltly. Children In In dustry. Recreation, and Children In Need of Special Care; and Develop ment and Present Status of Infant Welfare Work in Other Countries. The outlines are simple and po pular 1n language and treatment, but, while designed primarily for the use of busy women Interested In obtaining a general knowledge of the field, they furnish also the framework (for detailed study of special problems. Each program with the exception of the one dealing with work In foreign countries makes provisions for a study of local conditions in the light of the knowledge d child welfare work gained through the general study. The section on Iforelgn Infant wel fare work Is not a study outline, but a brief account In outline form the main facts, in the develop ment of this work. It Is Intended to provide data for comparison with United States or to furnish publicity material In demonstrating the value of child we'Jfare measures. o Shot Her Husband While He Slept OAKLAND.

FREIGHT BSE TO AFFECT DR, GOODS Letter Explaining the Extent of Price Advance Is Re ceived in This City. SHORTAGE IS EXPECTED .Mills Are Milking Only Such Goods aw Tbey Have Sold and Are Closing Pown When Orders Are Filled, Rays letter. Just what the recently announced advance in freight rates means to the retail merchants and to the buyers Is shown In a letter received by dry- goods merchants of this city from a large wholesale house in San Fran cisco. Portions of the letter follow: "While the time for speculative buying of merchandise Is past it is our conviction that merchants have nothing to fear In 'konping thilr stocks sorted and up to tho re quirements of their trado. Such re adjustments of prices as may be mado will be made In an orderly way and will in no case be drastic. Such pricos of cotton textiles as have beon miido for the spring of 1921 aro on a higher plane of value than the opening prices for the spring of 1920. This will bo true of all colored and fine yarn goods, also of hosiery and underwear. "There have been some readjust ments downward In prices of narrow bleached and brown goods which we think are now on a stable basis of value. "We are semi -officially Informed that effective on August 26 all trans continental freight rates will advance 33 per cent and lnter-stnto rates will advnnce 2f per cent effective the same date. "That you may understand exactly what this means to you, we call your iittentlon to the fact that the averagn weight of a case of cotton piece gooilB is approximately 400 pound; the trans-continental lea -than - carload, rate is $2.48 per 100 lbs. plus war tax, making the cost of shipping d' rlct from eastern seaboard to Pacific coast territory per ca3e approximate ly $11.36 plus war tax. The increase in cost will be approximately $3.80 per case, making the total cost a! proximatoly $15.40 per case plus war tax. The Inter-state rate advance Is not quite as heavy you will note, but Is of sufficient Importance to Justify all merchants In taking It Into con federation. "Mills are generally following the policy of making only such goods as they have sold and of closing down when their orders are filled. If this policy Is persisted In It is conceivable that merchandise will be scarcer 1n 1921 than at any period of the world war." Canyonville Woman . Denies Her Death CANYONVILLE, Or..

VICTORY IS EXPECTED Island Kingdom Itoasts of Several Fine Teams lluvo Keen lnter eated in ltaNeball for Over BO . No Pruleaiuaals. (Ry Associated Press). CHICAGO. Aug. 18. Japan la' planning oue of the most ambitious baseball Invasions of the United States, next spring and summer, that has ever been recorded In the annals of International athletics. At tile same time a group of wealthy Japan ese business men are hoping to per suade two top-notch American league teams to visit Japan for an extended series of exhibition games. ill Is news of baseball In Japan la brought back from the Orient by rofessor Fred Merrlfiold, who piloted the University of Chicago nine on its recent tour of Japanese universities. WnBeda University Is getting . ready for a trip clear across the Uni ted States," said Professor Merri fleld. "Heretofore Waseda and Kleo have played only on the west .coast and In the middle west but this time the Waseda men hope to ar lange games with many of the lead' ing teams In our eastern states. "Professor fso Abe. the 'father of baseball In Japan,' and dean of the college at Waseda, assisted by Pro fessor Ilenninghoft of the same Insti tution will be in charge of the trip. "Tho Japanese squad expects to spend nearly five months . getting ready to tackle the American college teams and with oiki of the mo-jt clever and hard working sets of players In their history, they promise to win their full share of games. They plan to start from Toklo in mid-winter, spend two weeks or moro In tho wonderful spring climate of Honolulu playing against the versa tile Japanese, American and Chinese teams of the Island, then tour the west coast from Seattle to Los An Kolcs In the height of the western baseball season, while the midwest and eastern campuses are still cov ered with snow and mud; "In this way they will easily be come acclimated and get used to thd food and travel that play such a big part In the success of a team. When the Japanese boys go east, look out for tbem, for they will be In the pink of condition. "This careful program is an Indi cation of the rapidly rising interest In baseball which Is felt -all over the Island kingdom. Waseda was the leader In thlB movement some 20 yenrs ago. Now every school In tho land boasts of its numerous 'cham pions' who hope to show their tal ents to Ihe world. .Native coaches are turning out pitchers, hatters and fielders capable of holding places on any American college team. "Signs of an attempt to commer cialize baseball, however, are In sight. A group of Influential men. trained in America and longing for tho good old 'fan' days when they i could enjoy fine agame every day, i plnn to place the game upon a higher professional level.'
