administration began arrangements to
day that will -af fora quick , relief to
Americans in Central America If the

ing breaks out.

of the state department and the navy
department, orders were given to rush
the Denver from Acajutla, San Salva
dor, to Corinto, Nicaragua, telegraphic
center of the war plot The only ship
at Corinto now is the Buffalo, a troop
vessel The Denver is a cruiser with
sufficient" forces on - board to. land

Philadelphia.' Pa., March 17. "Free
dom of divorce : has not gone far
enough. Tha divorcee, ' Instead of- be
Ing Ostracised and regarded with sus
picion, should be regarded as the savior
of the race." , . . . - , v- ;
""With this' radical : statement Dr.
Woods Hutchinson, the noted lecturer
and author of New York, astounded his
hearers at ' the - opening of the three
days conference which this city Is row
holding. Dr. Hutchinson, after speak
ing in an optlmlstio vein on the rela
tion of eugenics to mental health, crit
icised the attack which many physi
cians and layman hav taken toward
the Increase in mental "ailments. He
said, in part: vv " n
"While it Is true that the per cent of
insanity . in this country , Is hereditary,
tmich Is due to environment and from
figures that I have gathered I know
that the strain would be avoided by the
prevention ef , parenthood among the
mentally unfit. ,t;
"If a woman , marHes a man whom
she later finds is tainted -with mental
diseases, she should v allowed to di
vorce him without further delay and
not be discouraged in her attempt to
prevent her from propagating. a race of
imbeciles. Eugenics may some day
play an Important part In bringing per
fect children , into - the world, . but I
doubt if any formal laws : regulating
marriage, will ever do any good. What
should be done is - the establishment
of a bureau of pedigrees and then be
fore persons undertake matrimony they
can see the records of their families
and tell whether a marriage would be
a good or a bad thing.
"I certainly believe we should have
divorces, the church and the ministry
notwithstanding. There should be the
greatest freedom in tha dissolution of
tha marriage vows when the grounds
are legitimate. The publio should most
certainly reverse Its position toward
the woman who seeks to free herself
from an alliance of this character that
will compel her to bring unfit children
into the world. . ...
