Referring .to "National IIos
pitiil liny," President Hoover
writes: "Our citizens will never
rest content until the po6rest
children in. our cities, the lone
liest mothers on our isolated
farms, have the comfort and
protection of good hospitals."
f
Most important is adequate
medicnl care for the lonely
mothers, when their children
are born.
Skillful obstetrics dates hack
only a few years, and has been
limited, largely, to the prosper
ous class. ' Until recent years
childbirth was left to the mercy
' of unscientific nifdwives.
When trained surgeons began
attending women in childbirth
deaths seemed to be more fre
quent. A midwife was commanded
to bring Queen Victoria into
the world, niter-the Princess
Charlotta had died in child
birth, under the euro of the
court physicians.
It was Dr. Oliver Wendell
Holmes, once a teacher at the1
J larva rd medical school, who
Told the world's doctors, "You
have been killing mothers in'
childbirth w i t h your own
hands.".,.:...,.-.,- . .pSSSXr:
He referred to the fact that
doctors came from other pa
tients, or from work in thp dis
secting' room, to handle child
birth eases, hands unwashed
and covered with germs.
Antiseptics were unknown.
The doctor, highly indig
nant, said mothers diecj because
'Providence wished thetn to die.
Had not Eve and all her daugh
ters been threatened with child
birth troubles, for listening to
the snake?
Now doctors clean their
hands, wear rubber gloves anil,
good practice, it can no
'longer be said that "one might
as well deliver a woman to the
guillotine us to the bed of con
finement. Oliver Wendell Holmes did
more for the world in that one
warning to doctors than in all
his admirable writing, and that
fact should be mentioned under
his bust in the hall of fame.
If President Hoover can pro
cure medical protection in
childbirth for the "loneliest
mothers on our isolated farms,
of whom tens of thousands
every year die in childbirth un
necessarily, he will be a very
great President.
Mortality in childbirth is
higher in America than in any
Mother civilized country. A good
recommendation for this rich
est nation, which pretends to
value the native born so highly.

Virginia Citizens and Stu
dent Body Ask Governor
for Investigation 'Shot
at Tires' of Auto Asser
tionShooting Seen as
Pitiful Example By Petitioners.
RICHMOND. ,Va May 14.
Citizens of Washington county,
Virginia, joined today with the
student body of Kmory and Henry
college in petitioning Governor
Jiyrd to investigate the fatal shoot
ing of J. W. Kendrlck, 17, Emory
and Henry student, by law en
forcement officers in an automo
bile chase neur Abingdon.
Kendrlck was wounded when
three officers fired1 "at the tires"
of the automobile, and died 24
houi'H later.
Charging that "proseeiltlon of
law violators apparently has been
thrown into the tllscurd for prose-
"J"
zena petition called upon tno
.governor to obtuin explanations
of "the promiscuous and indis
criminate gun play in Washington
county and the pructice of town
and county officers of stopping
and searching private automobiles
without a wurrant."
The officers who shot Kendriclc
were Jumejf C. Reynolds, Abing
don policeman, nnd James Crowe
and J. W.- Worley, Washington
oounty deputy sheriffs. They said
they had received complaints that
Kendrlek's companions, .Hterl lng
JJutton and Paul Phelps, were
di-lnktng and disorderly, and that
the car. ignored an order to stop.
They -declared they did not know
Kendriclc was in the machine.
After th shooting Phelps and
Dutton were arrested, but denied
they had been drinking. The
three officers were arrested and
placed under $5000 bonds eaah,
after they had waived preliminary
t hearing.
The student body of Emory and
Henry college petitioned Governor
Uyrd to investigate the affair,
pointing out that the shooting
was "a pitiful example of where
men in authority have divorced
their judemant and exceeded their
nowers with Jthe consequence that
a youth, whether to a degree cul
pable or not, has died the death
which the law reserves for the
most Inflexible criminals."

letter it was expressly stated,
among other things, that If any
propitetur was found guilty of
violation in court, his license
would be forfeited, the city council
at Its special meeting this forenoon
declared the licenses of Wm. Hlne
hart, A. C. Sutherland and Rankin
Kstes - revoked nnd their JG00
bonds forfeited.
These proprietors, who were ar
rested in the recent raid by prohi
bition enforcement officers nil
pleaded guilty In court when ar
raigned, to the charge of selling
Intoxicants, or "bitters."
Mayor Pipes called attention to
tlit; fact that In view ot this letter
It was up to the city officials to
hack up their warning letter, or
"be made monkeys of by viola
tors." The councllmen saw tho situa
tion tho same. way and unanimous
ly voted to revoke the licenses add
to declare the bonds forfeited.
After doing this the mayor and
council Instructed Chief of Police
McCrodlo to ut onco gnthcr the
licenses from the three pool and
curd room proprietors.
Tho latter can still conduct their
places- of ousiness In the way of
selling tobaccos and lunch, and
cun even continue to sell "bitters,"
If they wunt to take tho chance of
repeuted arrests for such selling,
hut they enn nut operate their card
tables or pool or billiard tables.
This Is because the city only
Issues licenses for oporntlon of
pool and billiard tallies nnd card
playing tables In such establish
ments. A license is not granted
until a suitable bond of 5no for
each place, Is uccepted.
However, with their licenses re
voked, the Rlnehnrt, Sutherland
and Rankin establishments are
placed In n,very embarrassing fl
inunciu! position, thru not being
able to operate their main sources
of revenue tho curd tables and
Iponl and billiard games.
They cannot operate again In
'' until they seek nnd are grant-
,d new licenses by the city council.
and It Is a foregone conclusion
,nat
the city officials will not
grant such licenses, with new
t,ondsmen;
until thoroughly satis-
1 r 8ato ,iws, um then only with
air tight bonds furnished.
The next move Is up to the
proprietors. - The city has shown
its hand. On and after June 1st
next the new state Inw which con
fines the sale of "bitters" only to
drug stores goes Into effect.
