SEATTLE, Wash., May 19. Sixteen
proposed changes in state laws and
three measures now pending before
congress were indorsed by the fifth
annual assembly of the Women's Leg
islative Council of Washington, in
session here today. A proposed rec
ommendation for strict censorship of
motion pictures was stricken - trom
the legislative programme and four
ether proposals, including the entire
legislative programme of the Wash
ington Educational association, were
referred to the more than 40 affiliated
organizations for further study.
The council will meet next October,
when a final legislative programme
will be agreed upon.
Marriage Delay Proposed.
Among proposed changes in state
laws recommended for presentation
to the legislature were bills provid
. ing for a lapse of 15 days between ap
plication for a marriage license and
its issuance and a bill raising the
legal age of women from 18 to 21
years. Action on a measure author
izing the retention by married women
of their maiden names after marriage
was postponed until the October
y meeting.
The proposal to recommend motion
picture censorship was laid over after
Mrs. Victoria L. Trumbull, president
of the council, had declared that "we
women have great faith and confi
dence" in Will H. Hays, motion pic
ture dictator, and that "we feel con
fident that he will bring about many
reforms and that censorship will not
be necessary."
The council indorsed suggested
changes in the etate law to provide
a fund sufficient to extradite wife
and home deserters and to compel
husbands within the jurisdiction of
the court to provide for their fam
ilies. The proposal to reintroduce
an appropriation bill for the support
of the women's industrial home and
clinic at Medical Lake, Wash., also
was adopted.
Americanization Plan Backed.
Other measures to be proposed by
the council include:
Amendments to the lunacy law,
w!:lch would keep suspects under ob:
servation SO days before commitment
to an asylum, the so-called Ameri
canization measure, that would send
teachers of English, arithmetic and
American history into lumber camps
and ' other out-of-the-way plaoes; a
bill providing for public defenders in
class A and first-class counties; a
bill for strict supervision of road
houses and rural dancehalls; a bill
for the establishment of parental
schools in small counties; a bill for
a state teachers'-retlrement fund; a
bill for school observance of national
prohibition day; a bill giving the
wife equal rights with the husband
in handling community personal prop
erty: a measure establishing state and
county welfare boards; provision for
a school for feeble-minded in western
Washington and a bill for the codi
fication and revision of all laws rel
ative to children.
A strong state anti-narcotic Hw
was declared a necessity.

Municipal Auto Campers
Enjoy Rest House.
Great Question Are Settled
Knights of ltoad.
by
BY ADDISON BENNETT.
THE large room in the resthouse at
the municipal auto camp grounds
is the general meeting place for the
campers, and particularly when the
weather is a little cool and a roaring
fire is cracking in the fireplace. Then
the knights of the road get together
and settle great questions. For in
stance, only a day or two ago the
initiative and referendum was finally
disposed of to the satisfaction of all,
or nearly all, of the campers pres-
ent. And then the primary election,
which was held in this state yester
day, came in for a lot of eloquence.
' With the lights at the hands of the
campers there was given out much
food for thought, more than one
might have expected from strangers.
Superintendent Keaney was busy
yesterday in getting in a dozen or
more cords of wood for the use of the
campers. A good many come with
email sheet-iron stoves and others
use the old-fashioned camp fire. Oc
casionally one sees an electric torch
on the grounds, but not often. For
water heating gas is used and the
grounds are lighted by electricity
and some of the cooking is done on
gas plates.
Yesterday morning there were 43
cars on the grounds, which made a
total of arrivals since the opening
day, May 2, of 192 cars. These cars
are mostly from Washington, Cali
fornia, Oregon and Nevada. So to
speak, but very few of the real trav
eling campers are on the road at this
date. "
The price of 50 cents a day still
prevails. It caused a little friction
for a few days at first, but it is gen
erally conceded that the price is rea
sonable, considering the conveniences
the campers enjoy.
Mr. anfi Mrs. William Staples of
Canyon City, Colo., arrived yesterday
from Phoenix, Ariz., and later from
Eugene. The Staples owned a fine
fruit ranch in Canyon City, which
they sold last summer, and started
out on a sight-seeing trip. They
spent the winter at Phoenix and
Glendale, which is a town near Phoe
nix. Then they came up to Eugene
and spent a few weeks visiting old
Canyon City neighbors. But now
they are pining for Canyon City again
and may purchase another fruit tract.
Officers Search for Man Who
Found Victim Lying Unconscious.
Assault Thought Mistake.
ASTORIA, Or.. May 19. (Special.)
Charged with attacking Clarence
Roberts, night engineer, Wednesday
night at the Westport Lumber com
pany's plant, Oscar Kelly has been
arrested at his home in Kerry. Of
ficers are now searching for Arthur
Warranka, the man who reported he
found Roberts lying unconscious in
the road. Warranka disappeared yes
terday, but the officers believe they
know where he is hiding.
J-ust how the officers connect Kel
leyjwith the attack on Roberts has
hot) been made public. Warranka is
our on bail in connection with a
shooting affray following a raid by
deputies on a bootlegger's rendez
vous several months ago. Kelley was
also arrested at this time, but was re
leased when the officers could not
marshall sufficient evidence to hold
him. The trial of Warranka was to
be held May 22 in St. Helens.
' Those acquainted with the facta be
lieve the men who beat Roberts, ap
parently with a heavy bottle, mistook
him for someone else, as he nas
worked in Westport but a short time
and is not known to have any ene
mies. He was not in this district at
the time of the raid on the bootleggers.

NEW YORK, May 14. (Special.)
One of the richest fields to be inva'ded
by quacks, blackmailers and laymen
without medical knowledge is psycho
analysis, according to George W.
Whiteside, counsel for the New York
Society of Psychoanalysts and "the
New York Medical society, which have
been carrying on an investigation of
charlatans of this type.
. The investigation showed that many
men with checkered careers and with
out the slightest tincture of medical
knowledge have been posing as ex
perts, writing books, setting up of
perts, writing books, setting up
offices and taking fees for psycho
analytic treatments. Among them are
men who have been, living by their
wits for years, who are alleged to be
attracted to psychoanalysis because it
opens up interesting avenues for
blackmail.
"There have been many cases of
this kind which would be sensa
tional," said Dr. A. A. Brill, a member
of the New York Society of Psycho
analysts, "except for the fact that
victims of blackjnai! cannot make
charges without revealing the secret
which subjects them to blackmail.
- Fakers on Increase. ,
"The fakers of this type who are
preying on the public are increasing
because the subject has been such a
popular fad. Unfortunately, while
the attempt of an unauthorized person
to treat disease by this method, is a
crime, the quacks among the laymen
have cleverly formed alliances with a
few renegade members of the medical
profession. .... In such cases, the med
ical man is usually about as ignorant
as the layman of the subject by which
they are earning a living."
The investigation has shown, ac
cording to Mr. Whiteside, that many
of the psychoanalysts of this type are
advocates of immorality and have
developed sex appeal as a regular
advertising method.
"Aside from the blackmail and the
vicious side of this abuse of psycho
analysis, there is a great deal -of
danger to the patient," said Mr.
Whiteside,'
"In the first instance, even as prac
ticed by eminent medical men, psy
choanalysis has its limitations. It
has absolutely no application- to a
sickness caused by an organic dis
turbance. Such cases 'have to be
ruled out at once. This- requires a
careful examination and diagnosis
Only a skilled physician is able to
give such an examination and diag
nosis.
Confidence Is Required.
"In the second place, the theory of
psychoanalysis requires of a patient
the disclosure of the most confiden
tial information concerning himself.
and he must repose absolute confi
dence in the man to whom 'he makes
his confession or statement. When
that is done to a physician, the law
protects the patient, because we have
a definite statute which makes it a
privileged communication which the
physician is not permitted to discuss.
nor may he be compelled to disclose it.
"Most of the psychoanalysts em
phasize question of sex to which may
be traced mental disturbances and go
into great detail. Some of them
preach, or rather encourage, promis
cuity." Detectives employed in the investi
gation have obtained evidence against
several lay practitioners, but prosecu
tion has been withheld so far, be
cause of the question of policy in-
volved. The County Medical society
decided recently to initiate no more
prosecutions for violations of the
medical practice act, because it was
unfair and injurious to the medical
profession to put it in the position of
a prosecutor, thus givinf a certain
plausibility with the court or jury to
the charge that the profession was
acting, not for the good of the public,
but because medical men were being
deprived of fees. Conferences are to
be held with District Attorney Ban
ton to provide for a method of prose
cuting quacks of all kinds who
practice in violation of law.
Andre Triden, a layman and pub
lisher of two books setting forth the
theories of Freud and Jung, denied
that it was a crime for a layman to
practice psychoanalysis.
The layman should always turn
over cases of physical trouble to the
physicians," said Tridon, "and if (he
does that there is nothing wrong in
his treating other cases. There is no
conflict at all between the medical
man and the layman in this science.
It is a form of medicine, but a, lay
man who understands it can practice
it successfully."

the most they could hope to live to
see, and this fired the younger men
with determination to make the ob
servation of the day this year a real
one. The parade and march to the

exercises will be held there. Serv
