INJUSTICE THOUGHT DONE
Report Says Weakness of Will, Love
of Finery, Unwillingness to Ac
cept Available Employment,
Are Keal Factors.
NEW YORK, June 21. A negative
opinion concerning- the relation of
working: girls' low wages to the social
evil is contained in a statement issued
today by a voluntary committee of na
tionally prominent social workers who
met here on April 18 to investigate the
subject.
The investigators express their be
lief that "injustice has been done work
ing girls, especially to the employes of
department stores by the widespread
publicity given to a mistaken view of
industrial responsibility for the so
called white slave condition."
"The undersigned," the statement
continues, "certainly do not wish to in
timate that the wages paid are too
high or even sufficient. That is a ques
tion to be considered on different
grounds, and our sympathy Is strongly
with the working girls."
Other Causes Assigned.
The conclusion of the investigators'
report is as follows:
"Our observation and experience in
dicate that the most important causes
of immorality among girls are:
"Weakness of mind and will, indi
vidual temperament, immoral associ
ates, lack of religious or ethical train
in?, injurious home influences, cramped
living accommodations rendering priv
acy difficult, lack of industrial effi
ciency. Idleness, unwillingness to . ac
cept available employment, love of fin
ery and pleasure, unwholesome amuse
ment, inexperience and ignorance of so
cial temptations.
Low Wage Not Real Reason.
"We, therefore, hold that it has not
been satisfactorily demonstrated that
low wages are a direct cause of loss ot
virtue of working girls."

YOUNG MAN'S AUNT WINS
Woman's Prediction That Adolplras
III and Divorced Wife of Marlon
J. Lambert "Would Be
Married Comes True.
ST. LOUIS, June 21. (Special.)
Adolphus Buscb, . the St. Louis brewer,
many times a millionaire, has lost a
bet of 10,000 as a result of the en
gagement of his grandson, Adolphus
Busch III to Mrs. Florence Parker Lam
bert, recently divorced wife of Marion J.
Lambert, of St. Louis. The story of
the wager did not become known for
some time after the formal announce
ment of the appoacbing marriage had
been made.
The Busch family began a few months
ago to take notice of the attentions
young Busch was paying to Mrs. Lam
bert, and one of the young man's aunts
remarked, in the hearing of the brewer,
that they would marry one day. .
"Nonsense," retorted Grandpa Busch,
who has decided opinions of his own on
many subjects. "There is nothing In it."
"Just the same, they will," persisted
the aunt.
"Bet you $10,000 to $1000 they don't,"
said Busch, sticking to his guns.
The aunt agreed and the wager was
duly recorded. Now everyone sees that
except for the most unexpected sort of
happening the elder Busch stands to
lose the full amount.
Mrs. Lambert is 38 years old and the
mother of three children: She is said
to be devotedly in love with her fiance,
who is only 22. In marrying again she
will lose her beautiful home and- will
forfeit a liberal allowance of alimony,
but young Busch has enough to make
up for that and will no more worry
about the loss of his wife's allowance
from her former husband ffian his
grandfather will about the $10,000
wager. Notwithstanding that the brewer
bet against the probability of the mar
riage, he is said to have not the slight
est objection to it. In fact, the bride will
receive .hearty welcome into the Busch
family..,-

DALLAS, Or., June 21. (Special.)
The first meeting of the recently ap

held In this city this week, with w
Fuller. W. W. Perci al and Charles
A. Park, all the members, present. The
bonds of this board were approved by
the County Court. Mr. Park was
elected president and Mr. Fuller sec
retary.
The selection of a site for tb rmintu
Fair was laid over until June 30. The
secretary was instructed to notify all
iuo commercial ciuds, granges and hor
ticultural and agricultural societies of
the date, asking them to send dele
gates to suggest locations for the fair.
The fight now is between Dallas ana
Independence for the permanent Coun
ty Fair. As Mr. Ferclval favors Inde
pendence, and Mr. Fuller, president of
the Dallas Commercial Club, favors
Dallas, It Is up to Mr. Park to decide
the question. The Independence sup
porters are relying largely uDon the
fact that they have an excellent race
course and a racing association there.
un the other hand, the Dallas ad
herents contend that in a fair, given
principally for the display of agri
cultural products and for the educa
tion or schoolchildren, that horseraces
are a detriment rather than a benefit.
Dallas has a 10-acre tract to offer
for a site, together with substantial fi

The usual preliminaries were quickly

answered ready and two minutes later
the pistol flashed and 48 oars plunged
beneath the surface of the water and
the race was on.
The ultimate winners of the contest.
Syracuse, were first to catch the water
and the splash of the sweeps was
plainly heard on shore as the oarsmen
threw their weight and muscle into the
first stroke. The Salt City crew jumped
into the lead with a 88 to the minute
stroke, with the other eights slicing the
water on both sides of them. There was
little advantage during the first 200
yards, and then Columbia showed its
bow a trifle to the fore. Syracuse was
second and Cornell third, with Wiscon
sin, Washington and Pennsylvania fol

settled down to the long grind in
steady style, with Columbia showing
the way half a length ahead of Cornell,
which led Syracuse by. three-quarters
of a shell. The two Western eights
were within easy striking distance, but
Pennsylvania was already falling back.
Washington and Columbia were row

to four strokes higher.

that Pennsylvania was clearly out of

until the Black River bridge hove in

final spurts that were to bring victory
or defeat.
