Ministers Hear of Work of Iowa Public Welfare League The worl accomplished by the Iowa Public Welfare league was outlined to the Methodist Minister"' association of Omaha at its meeting In room 212 of the Young Men's Christian association yes terday afternoon by C. L. Baxter, super intendent of the Council Bluffs district of the league. He explained the methods w)iereby tho Iowa organization solves, civic, Industrial, economlo and moral problems. The Methodist ministers voted to' have a committee consisting of the president, Vice president and secretary bring the matter before the Omaha Min isterial union with a view to arranging to have Mr. Baxter present the plan to that body as soon as possible. The Omaha Methodist ministers expressed the hope that such a league could be established In this city, that gambling and other vices might be suppressed, especially dur ing certain festive occasions here. Mr. Baxter explained that (he league was an organization of luwa citizens, rep resentative men of Iowa who are Inter ested In the moral problems of the state. He pointed out that the membership Is not made public so that the work of the organization does not lead to embarrass ments In that regard. The secretary, of course,' he said, must be known as ho maintains headquarters, "Seventy-five per cent of the cases of violation of law can be handled by let ter," said Mr. Baxter, "so that It Is not so often necossary to make arrests and prosecutions. We believe In getting the evidence and then writing the man vio lating the law, setting forth that we havo all the evidence necessary to prose cute htm, and ask him to stop without forcing us to go to the extent of prose cuting him." Some of the problems successfully dealt with In Iowa by the league, according to Mr. Baxter, are the cigarette habit, gambling In many forms, Intemperance, the tramp and what to do with him, the discharged convict and how to find em ployment and many other matters. The Omaha Ministerial union will hold Its meeting the third Monday. In January, at which time It Is likely Mr. Baxter will be" given an opportunity to explain Uie working of the league to that body. swered affirmatively, and tho Judgment will undoubtedly be entered against the company for $J,7W).
