Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 20.—“Forty per
cent of the infant mortality and some
maternal mortality are due to Inade-
quate medical care at the time of con-
finement,” said Dr. Arthur B. Emmons
of Boston, at the opening session of
the seventh annual meeting of the
American Association for Study and
Prevention of Infant Mortality, at Mil-
waukee. To the same cause he attrib-
uted many stillbirths and much reduced
infant and maternal vitality, more than
half of which h declared to be pre-
ventable.
“In order to obtain effectiveness and
completeness,” he said, “I suggest , the
notification of pregnancies to the local
health authority. These notifications
should be treated confidentially and
might be at first voluntary, but later
should be required. This would fur-
nish the necessary information to the
health authorities, who should be re-
quired to determine that proper pre-
natal and safe obstetric care is as-
sured to each prospective mother.”
He said that the transactions pub-

Austin, Oct. 20.—George C. Shupee,
federal game warden, with headquarters
at San Antonio, spent the day here
on his round over the state. He is
endeavoring, he said, to enlist the co-
operation of sportsmen in the cause
of game preservation and perpetuation.
Unless wasteful and unsportsmanlike
methods are generally abandoned, he
asserted, many of the desirable species
will be extinct within a few years.

lished by the association are the best
key to the literature on infant welfare
improvement, including as they do,
thirty-five papers with discussions
bearing directly on obstetrics, and re-
ports of new work undertaken by over
•151 affiliated societies. “These rec-
ords,” he said, “show the, backwardness
of obstetric practice in this country
today as follows:
"1. Insufficient teaching of obstet-
rics in medical schools.
“2. A low standard of obstetric prac-
tice generally, and’rarely any prenatal
work.
“3. Long hours and poor pay. It pays
the doctor more money today to repair
the results of bad obstetrics than to
prevent such results.
“4. The midwife laws vary from un-
restricted license, simple registration,
education and supervision by police-
control to nonrecognition like any
any other unqualified person, as in
Massachusetts,
“5. Each community presents differ-
ent problems, and must solve its own
accordingly.
“6. The public and many physicians
still consider childbirth a simple, nor-
mal process and therefore unknowingly
take grave risks which life insurance
companies will not take.
"‘T. The medical profession, which
might successfully lead to a rapid so-
lution of the difficulties, is as yet
ununited in any constructive effort to
improve the situation.”

Austin, Tex., Oct. 20.—Hearing of the
state’s petition for an injunction direct-
ed against the 34 Texas railroads
which did not participate in the injunc-
tion suit instituted in the federal court
at Atlanta, Ga., was begun yesterday
before Judge George Calhoun in the
Fifty-third District court here yester-
day. The answer to the state’s peti-
tition recites the history of the pro-
ceedings before the interstate com-
merce commission instituted by the
railroad commission of Louisiana
against the Texas railraods, charging
discrimination in the rates against
Shreveport, etc., all of which resulted
in the order made by the interstate
commerce commission July 7th, 1916,
prescribing certain maximum rates as
reasonable to be charged on the classes
and various commodities described in
the order between Shreveport and Tex-
as points, requiring the railroads of
Texas on and after Nov. 1st not to
charge exceeding such maximum rates,
and prohibiting them from charging on
and after Nov. 1st, on shipments be-
tween points in Texas, for same dis-
tances, lesser rates than those charged
between Shreveport and Texas points.
The answer then alleges that in com-
pliance with and under authority of the
order of the interstate commerce com-,
mission the carriers filed with the in-
terstate commerce commission their
Texas Tariff No. 2-B, effective Nov. 1st,
1916, which prescribed rates on the
classes and such-commodities between
Shreveport and Texas points and be-
tween Texas points. The answer then
shows that on and after Nov. 1st, un-
der the interstate law, the very rates
named in the said tariff must be
charged between Shreveport and Texas
points, and under the order of the in-
terstate commerce commission lesser
rates cannot then be charged for the
same distances between points in Tex-
as. and, therefore, that the effect of
granting the injunction asked by the
state would be to suspend so much of
the order of the interstate commerce
commission as prohibits the railroads
from charging less.rates for same dis-
tances between Texas points than be-
tween Shreveport and Texas points,
and shows under the federal law such
injunction can only be granted by three
United States judges, of whom one
must be a circuit judge, and the suit
must be brought against the United
States of America. For these reasons
defendants claim that the state court
is without jurisdiction to grant the
relief prayed for by the attorney gen-
eral.
EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION.
The answer then alleges that if the
tariff filed by the railroads with the in-
terstate commerce commission. is not
in this respect in compliance with the
order of that commission, that the com-
mission has exclusive jurisdiction in the
first instance to determine that ques-
tion, and that the state, through the
attorney general, has submitted her-
self to the jurisdiction of the interstate
commerce commission by an application
for hearing, which has been granted,
and will occur at Washington on Oct.
12th, in which the attorney general
will porticipate. The answer then al-
leges the filing of the suit brought
by the Eastern Texas railroad and oth-
ers against the Texas commission and
the attorney general in the United
States court, the granting of the re-
straining order by Judge Pardee pro-
hibiting the attorney general and the
Texas commission from interfering
with plaintiffs -in that, suit charging
the rates authorized by the order of
the interstate commerce commission,
and the filing of an answer therein by
the Texas commission and the attor-
ney general praying for an injunction
against the plaintiffs in that case,
whereby it avers that the federal court
acquired jurisdiction of the contro-
versy between the attorney general
and the Texas commission, and the
railroads and the interstate commerce
commission, particularly as the mile-
age represented in the suit of the fed-
eral court is more than eighty per cent
of the entire mileage of the state, and
therefore that the state court, acting on
the comity prevailing among courts,
should not undertake to interfere in the
controversy. The defendants are rely-
ing on the Waters-Pierce case, in which
the state court, at Austin, had appoint-
ed a receiver, who had qualified, but
had’ not taken possession of the prop-
erty, and in the meantime the federal
court appointed a receiver., who took
possession of the property, and where-
in the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals held that on the doctrine of
comity the federal court should not
have appointed the receiver, and or-
dered the property turned over to the
state receiver. The defendants then
allege the granting of the injunction
prayed for will increase freight rates
in Texas, instead of reducing them, for
the reason that the effect of the in-
junction would be to abolish interline
rates as between the plaintiffs in the
suit in the federal court and the de-
fendants in the case in the state court,
so that all shippers shipping from a
point on one of those lines to a point
on another line would have to pay the
sums of locals, which would be higher
than the interline rates in the inter-
state commerce tariff, and which ex-
cess charges would be very much more
than the shippers would save in the
somewhat lower local rates in the Tex-
as commission tariff.

This step aroused great indignation t
among the modern admirers of Confu-
cius. and called forth a shower of pro-
'tests. Kang Yu-wei, the distinguished
scholar, who, among the prominent
publicists who oppose the eradication
of Confucianism, telegraphed to the
central government, declaring that the
.Confucian religion is distinctly the re-
ligion of China, and that if it be re-
i jected ’ Chinese would become like |
brutes. “What would b the use of
the knees,” he asked, “if they be not
employed for the worship of Confu-
cius?”
