Judge Henry Xeil. the father of Mothers' Pensions, will be in Pendlc on in a few days, according to ad? let-si received here. Judge Neil has traveled all over the I'nited States in the last four years, advocating Mothers' Pension HI plai: has been adopted into the laws of twenty-five states, Wyoming. Xew "York and Tennessee recently joining t4he procession. His plun is to talk about the evils of thilJ-poverty and to convince the hole country that it is bad policy and a w aste of taxpayers" money to allow any child to suffer from poverty. He is ir)tanizing a great Mothers' Pen sion Congress, which will take place lit the San Francisco exposition on :j'PL ?). 21 and 22. At this confer, "net plans will be discussed for hav ing the Mothers' Pension system ad unintered by the public school sys rem. "'"The Mothers' Pension system Is not1 vi chanty any more than the public ichool is a charity," said Judge Xeil in discussing his plan. "We spend money for free education because it is she economical and efficient thing to lo We know we cannot afford to have our children grow up in ognor arxe. But thousands of children are 'Prevented from obtaining an educa - lion because their fathers are dead or 1 for some reason fall to provide: The pen.-ion system provides food, cloth ing hltpr and care by the child's nR the rig from behind like a wheel iwu mother without which the free' harrow. Then someone yells: "Oh, voti American!' BY WILLIAM (5. SHKBHKRn. . t I'nited Press Correspondent.) 1'MNK, juy 3 (By Mail.) I'dine Is the Italian front That Is, it is as near the Italian front as you can get. And you're not supposed to he here. You've journeyed from Paris to Home, then from Home to Venice and from Venice to this little Italian town and. when you get here you find you're not welcomed. Other nations got excited when their part of the great war started but Italy's frenzy outdid them all. The censorship In Italy was the strict-! est: the tie no of the rsilrosrts th' completes!: the silence of !he tele graph and telephone the deepest, the secrecy the greatest and the abhor rence oi correspondents the most thorough. us lor tnis latter reason that a soldier meets you at the train. In some way he has heard that you are coming. Little does it matter to him that you have traveled thousands of miles, that you have spent hundreds of dollars and scores of hot. dust; hours to get to this place. His duty is to take you to a certain hotel where unwelcome persons can be visiled by the military police and robbed. hen you get to the hotel you take the room the hotel man gives you. In & way, you're a guest; in an other way you're a prisoner. Little difference does It make that you're an American and that the hotel man's brother is a barber in San Francisco and that he's doing well there The hotel man Is under mlli tary rule, too; he must give you one of the rooms that have been set off by the military authorities for unde sirables. After you get your baggage into your room you decide to get out and face the music with the police; It's better than to have them come to you. So. in a rattly cab, you sart off to the police satlon. It is Sunday ev. cning. at seven; the streets are filled with soldiers hundreds and thou sands of them.. They go about in groups: they laugh, but mostly, thej sing. You hear snatches from all the operas. Everybody sings tenor; there are scores ot Carusos about. The sol diers walk through the streets with their arms about each other; Italian men are great for arm holding and hugging. The soldiers are huge: It is a pick ed regiment; six footers are only av erage. Of all the gatherings I have seen on both sides in the great war this gathering at Udine was made up of the biggest men I have seen in one group. Among these Italian sol diers, you are In a boydom. Tour carriufe. going through a narrow street passes a moving picture the ater which is just emptying itself of soldiers: they're shouting and laugh ing and gesticulating; you can see hundreds of pairs of hands waving. Your carriage comes to a halt; the horse is pulling in vain; twenty sol diers have caught the spokes of the hind wheels; the rear end of the, cab kick up: the soldiers have lifted it into the air: the horse and the cab and you suddenly shoot forward; thirty giant Italian soldiers are push i'Ubllc schools cannot do their work "Wherever the pension system has been tried its results satisfy all class es. Juvenile crime and defectives are decreased at once, because the pen sioned mothers are enabled to remain at home and take care of their chil- Jnea. If children have a good home, wfcti their own mother, juvenile crime flecreases. Children raised in poverty recruit the police stations, jails, tourbt. penitentiaries, hospitals and sisyiums. because they did not get a Ki.iT start. The spending of ten mil 'ihan dollars this year for Mothers' Tensions will save the taxpayers a innndred million dollars in the coin ing jars. The cost of courts, pris ons and asylums has been increasing !oy leaps and bound, the best way to rui'idly decrease the expense of cor rective "institutions, is the Mothers' Pensions system, which attacks child poverty, the cause of most of the crime, feehle-mindedness and insan Hy Who is not pained to see little hiljren in poverty, deprived of the things childhood needs? The pension aynvrn will enable all children to liave. happy childhood and that is what we are living for. as I see it." Judt?e Neil is organizing commit tees in stales which do not have the fent-ioii system, and also committees in pension states to see that the law i used to free ali children from pov--rt. "American! American! Ameri can!" runs through the crowd. Then someone yells, "Long live the Ameri cans." In a moment everybody yells it "Three cheers for Xew York," yells another, in good Xew York Eng lish "Long live Xew York," yells the army. The rear wheels of your carriage come down with a thud. As you drive away you stand up and bow and everybody cheers again for America. You find the police closed for the night! You've come all this way to Vdlne with the curtains of your train win dows closed tight; when you go to the hotel you find the wooden shu ters closed. You cannot open them; it's against the military rule. Yon can't open them even after you've put our candle out at night. The hotel keeper doesn't know why; you don't know why; the only thing Is you can't In the morning while you're eatins: breakfast, with a headache that comes from sleeping In a closed room on a hot summer night, a huge man steps up to your table, hat in hand. He's a detective. Very like a Xew York detective. "I'm very sorry to disturb your bieakfast and I've given you a chance to finish it But now you must come to the police station. You go. The chief of detectives meets you at the door. "Correspondent?" he says. "You can't stay here. You've got to go hack to Rome right away." "But give me a chance to go and see the general,-' you plead. 'Fifteen minutes," he says, "But I know he'll tell you to go, too." Off to the general's headquarters you go. You send in your card. Out comes an officer, the secretary of the great Italian leader, Cadorna. He listens very politely to your plea. All you want him to do Is to give you an automobile and let you ride 15 miles over toward the mountains where the Italian artillerj; Is boom ing. He listens politely. Then he says: "My dear young man. It Ls Im possible. Italy doesn't want any correspondents." "But the English and the French have them," you say. "This la Italy," he says. Then he continues.

July 31. According to the "Times." naturalization papers were issued on Monday to Henrj James, the author. James took the oath of allegiance as a British sub ject. It has been rumored several times recently that Henry James was go ing to renounce his American citizen ship because he w-as dissatisfied with the policy of the American govern ment toward Germany. He recently expressed himself on the subject as follows "Personally I feel so strongly on everything that the war has brought into question for the Anglo-Saxon peo ples that humorous detachment or any other thinness or tepidity of mind on the subject affects me as vulgar impiety, not to say rank blasphemy our whole race tension became for me a sublimely conscious thing from, the moment Germany flung at us all her explanations of her pounce upon Bel Kium for massacre and ravage in the form of the most insolent 'because I choose to. damn you all!' recorded' in history." James has lived In England forty six years, and most of that time he has been more an Englishman than an American. He was born in Xew York in 1843. will stipulated that all his property should be sold to pay for his funara'. and purchase a marble tombstone and that If any money remained it should be given to orphans. A bank book showing a balance of 222.65 was found in the man's pocket. The will described a farm of 153 acres In Roger Mills County. Oklahoma, and two lots in Highland Addition of Oklahoma City. "For my coffin." the will specifies. I "spend J200, for a lot in the cemetery $200, for a tombstone $125, or if en ough money is available pay $250 and get a good marbe one. Indebted ex penses 'about $150, and for the city or state to look after my burial I set aside $100. If there Is any money left, let It be given to' the poor or phans kept by the state or city In which I am burled." During the last three winters Pohl man had been employed as a fire man at St. Mark's Catholic church and school, Page boulevard and Aca demy avenue. He had not been at the school since May 10. and the po Uce did not learn where he had been living. The public administrator will take charge of Pohlman's estate.

Lingerie of a most dainty kind, I eluding the handiwork garments that represented many hours of hap' py contemplation while willing fin gers were nimbly taking the stitches, were stolen, almost from under the eyes of the woman, but nothing else of value was taken.

Look at the tennis courts, the golf Jinks, the ball grounds on every side and consider how few there were ten years ago. It is a healthy sign of the times. It means greater things ahead with stronger men and women to do the world's work. These sports have, of course, developed specialized needs in dress and equipment, but they are needs easily supplied. A glance through the adverti sing columns of The East Ore gonian will nine times out of ten answer the questions of the ath letic man and woman.
