E ROUS TOO BUSY FOR WAR, SECRETARY LANE SAYS IN SPEECH j I -r .. 0 , . . ! Te s Graduates Lountrvmen ! Have More Important Work to Do, Providence, R. T., June 21 (INS) I . ' ' 4 m pripinu n r A tnn husv with ottlAr enterprises more important than war to fight with Mexi ico or any other nation." So declared Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane, here today, in a commencement address at Brown uni versity. Another guest of the univer sity was Charles Evans Hughes, the Republican nominee for presides. "The spirit of America," said Sec retary Lane, "is apainst, war. This 19 not because we have grown cowardly and fear f.eath, nor because wo have grown flabby and love softness, nor even becaufe we have become converts to the Prince of Peace. "We in America have something larger to do. We are discovering our country. We have no time for war We are doing something so much more Important. We are at work. That is the greatest of all adventures. "When war comes to a democracy it comes because we are not allowed peacefully to work. "What would we fight for? For what Roger Williams fought to bo let alone, to have the opportunity to show what man can do for man." The degree of doctor of laws wa conferred upon Secretary Lane. Thousands lined the streets and ap plauded Hughes, he led the Brown college parade. All the college yells were revised to end with "Hughes." The candidate will make a brief speech to the Brown alumni at luncheon this afternoon. 1 Army-Navy Orders San Francisco, June 21. (P. N. S.)

Carl Rave and K. I... Jenkins for distributing the pamphlets ; on "Family limitation" prepared by th advocate of birth control. They contend that the pamphlets do not constitute obscene literature, but are simply a compilation from tho French and Dutch pamphlets whic.i are given out at the public clinics at which the women of the working I classes are Instructed. It Is also contended that the arrests were made under city Ordinance No 14,053. which Is an ordinance "licensing, taxing and regulating certain businesses, callings and employments In the city of Port land, and regulating the manner at issuing licenses." Ordinance Is Considered. One section of this ordinance deals with the circulation or- publication of advertisements by quack doctors for me cure ur jjiiaie uiwaaca ui "artl-f cles or means of preventing concep tion." " The point is raised that the work being carried on by Margaret Sanger clearly outside the contemplation or ordinance under which the mayor aoted. and that the, pamphlets, the cir- dilation of which caused the arrest or the three men. clearly do not come within the scope of the Intent of the ordinance.

Birth Kate DUcuaeed. It is also a fact that the birth rate among the rich and well to do of France, England, Germany and Amer ica is but one third of that among the working women of those countries. It is argued that the birth control movement is based upon soiind and underlying economic reasons which go to the strength and virility of national life, and that for this reason, above all others, the things taught by Mrs. Sanger tend to the uplifting of the nation rather than the reverse. Mrs. Sanger has asked to be sub stituted In the place of the three men who have been arrested, on the ground that the circulation of the pamphlets was at her instance, and the case will be heard in the municipal court June 30.

Following; the conferences at the White House It was said that within the next week some of the foremost Bull Moosers of the country are going to declare themselves, not for the Dem ocratic party, but for President Wilson on his welfare and Americanism planks. In naming his campaign committer, the president is paying most attention to the Progressive element in his own party and these are expected to further the plan to capture the Progressive votes. It seems likely that Henry Morgen thau, former ambassador to Turkey, will be chairman of the campaign com mittee.

The Longevity of Scientists'. From the London Chronicle. The longevity of scientists Is quite as remarkable as that of artists.

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins It. The best thing for steady use Is just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil ( whlSh is pure and greaselessj. and is better than the most expensive soap or any thing else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily. removing every particle of dust, dirt, j dandruff and excessive OIL The hair I dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves' the scalp soft, and the hair line and silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to manage.
