The report issued by Major Blanche
Reno, superintendent of the Salva
tion Army Nebraska divisional home
and hospital in Omaha discloses that
151 unwed eirls and their babies
were cared for in the Omaha Insti
tution, which is but one of forty-five
such women's home and hospitals
maintained by the Salvation Army.
These institutions (-are supported,
in the main, by allowances from the
Army's local home service fund In
communities receiving the benefit of
the service. The average cost of the
care of one such mother with her
baby is about $125. The sum of $500
was sent to' the Army's Nebraska
home and hospital from the Lincoln
Salvation Army 1932 home service
fund to be applied toward the care of
the seven Lincoln cases served there.
Major Reno says: ; "The average
age of the mothers served in our Sal
vatlon Army institutions last year
was about 16 years. Girls of the age
of 13 and 14 were not unusual and
a numberyof '12 year old girl moth
ers were cared for.
'Most of these I am not inclined
to feel are bad girls at heart. The
greater number of them, I would say,
rather are victims 'of neglect, victims
of somebody's failure when most
they needed kindly, sympathetic
guidance in their lives.
"Some of them in their bewilder
ment and despair come even from
the brink of a suicide's, grave, lashed
by the whisperings of their own con
science and the remarks of acquain
tances. Many of them turn to the
Army, after parents have made fur
ther stay in j their homes intolerable.
"Our first step in their rehabili
tation is to have them know that
somebody cares what becomes of
them, to lead them from despair into
avenues of hope and a new grip ou
life. We would not condone their
wrong,' neither would we condemn
them for the failure or betrayal on
the part of others far better quali
fied than they ito , have saved them
trom tneir plight.
"There ' are two things . we . ask
every girl to promise when she. enters
one of our Institutions -to stay with
us long enough that we may serve
her needs and those of her child and
that, if at all practicable, with our
help, she will keep her baby. This
last promise we ask her to make be
cause we believe that God often works
thru mother love for the regeneration
of these mothers. Helplessness and
dependence on her warms into life
in the mother's heart a love that will
not let her baby go, a determination
to Work and live for her child."

Under the economy plan instituted
by the navy department last month,

recruits from outlying communities.
were to b closd and thaoiemfwet
were to be closed and the main sta
tion at Omaha skeletonized. In short,
recruiting from the states of Nebras
ka and Sputh Dakota for the navy
jwas to be summarily stopped.
Since the closing of these stations,
however, the plan has been revised
to the extent that both states remain
open as a field for navy recruiting
and all Nebraska sub-stations, i. e.;
North Platte, Hastings and Lincoln;
are to be reopened .and resume re
cruiting. The South Dakota sub-stations
of Huron, Aberdeen, Water

and ready to receive applicants. The
Omaha main office, about June 26th.

Council Bluffs, Iowa, and all recruits
accepted by the Nebraska sub-stations
will be sent to the Council
Bluffs office for actual enlistment and
final examinations.
The monthly quota of men ; to be
enlisted by this district will, in all
probability, bo forty-five . men per
month. This means that many young
men .between the ages of 17 and 25,
will have an opportunity to enlist
in the navy if physically and mentally
qualified and the unemployment sit

able extent.
It is expected that the first quota
of men will be enlisted on or after
July 20th. However, receipt of ap

main station ,1s to begin immediately
in order to acertain which men are

Major Dalrymple Tells House Com

Bootlegging, Make Revenue
drank enough of it you would get a
skin full; I'm sure it would."
To support his contention there
was greater respect for the law now
because of liberalization. Dalrymple
said he was the head of prohibition
in six states under the Wilson ad
ministration and that then "the peo
ple would not co-operate."
Brewers Lend a Hand
"Now we get the co-operation of all
classes," he continued, "even brew
ers. They are willing and anxious
to help enforce the law, because they
feel that a violator is escapng a tax
and thus penalizing them. Because
of that, I believe we can get more
convictions.
"I do believe, too, that there I3 less
drunkenness than there was in the
days before liberalization. If my con
viction is correct, beer is causing the
sale of less hard liquor than before.
Of course, we know it is very diffi
cult to get intoxicated on this 3.2
per cent beer."
"Dalrymple testified that 50,000
persons were directly dependent up
on the grape industry and "hundreds
EN ROUTE TO THE EAST
. Washington, June ?. Expressing
''unalterable opposition" to repeal of
the eighteenth amendment, MaJ. A.
V. Dalrymple, prohibition adminis
trator, told . the 1 ; house . ways and
means committee today that legali
zation, of naturally fermented wines
would increase respect for law and
bring needed revenue; to. the treas
ury. Dalrymple was testifying In sup
port of the, Lea bill, '? which would
legalize wines of from 11 to 12 per
cent alcohol by volume and tax the
new beverage 20 cents a gallon.
: "My observations . as , director of
prohibition lead me to think the pas
sage of this bill would " have a very ?f thousands" Indirectly,
wholesome effect upon enforcement
as a whole," Dalrymple said, hi ,
Beer an Aid to Enforcement
"The sale of 3.2 beer has very ma
terially reduced bootlegging. , It has
also created a feeling of favor for en
foreement which the law did not have
before. , Liberalization of the wine
laws would have the same effect."
Asked by Representative McCor-
mack, of - Masachusetts, -democrat,
what revenues would accrue if the
eighteenth amendment were repeal
ed, Dalrymple replied: ..
"That Is hard to say. Of course
we would have competition from im
ports, but If the tariff were high
enough we might be able to raise
considerable revenue,
'Personally, I am unalterably op
posed to repeal of the eighteenth
amendment, but I think liberalization
is the thing. I am not absolutely con
vinced that repeal would materially
increase revenues. Liberalization
will.
Tax Might Yield 100 Million
'The Lea bill, Dalrymple asserted,
would bring the government from 50
million to 100 million dollars an
nually in new revenues.
When Dalrymple said . "naturally
fermented wines" might contain from
10 to 12 per cent alcohol by volume,
