JlfOMEN OF INDIA
ARE MERE SLAVES
Widows Worked Half to Death,
IIl-Treated and Despised,
; Used to Kill Selves.'
CHILD MARRIAGE IS BAD
"There are 60,000 'temple prosti-
lutes' in India," declared Miss Daisy
Wood, missionary in Calcutta, India,
1 who spoke yesterday morning at the
Pearl Memorial Methodist church. .
t- "These prostitutes are employed to
support the religion of India. Think
' of the difference between such a re
i ligion and the Christian religion. The
' latter has emancipated woman and
i raised her to a plain on an equal with
I man.
$ "The condition of the women of
I India is indescribably wretched. Child
$'; marriage is one of the blights.. The
, British government has made a taw
s that children cannot be demanded by
' their husbands until they have reached
i the age of 12 years. The betrothal
takes place when they are mere in
. fants. One day a baby was brought
to our mission. We were told the
mother had died and her age was 11
j. years. .
w "After marriage the women of India
Vi are not allowed to see a man. On the
5 streets of India you see nothing, no
women. They are immolated in their
own houses. JA they get sick they
cannot see a doctor.. Nearly half the
i .115,000,000 people of India are prac
i tically prisoners.
Widowa Ill-Treated.
I "Widowhood is a still more horri
J ble thing in India than wifehood.
? There are 23.000,000 widows in that
I great land. The tot of the widow is
terrible. She is worked half to death,
ill-treated, despised. Before the gov
S V eminent prohibited it, most widows
N -preferred to commit 'suttee' which
Xjsisted of burning themselves alive
oa-. the funeral pyre where the hus
baM't bodies were cremated. Many
of the; widows of India are children
ranging from a year to 15 years of
age, for a child is considered just as
much a widow if the man to whom
she is betrothed dies before she
reaches the. age of 12 years as if he
dies after that time. ' ' ' '
"The vast difference in the posi
tions of women in Christian nations
and in pagan nations is one of the
most striking endorsements of Chria
4 tiamty." '. ......
A large number of the congregation
signed pledge cards for regular con
tributions to foreign missions.
Russians and Poles
Make Kun on Another
Bank in Chicago
, Chicago, Sept. 17. Russians -and
Poles in Chicago's, West Side foreign
quarter, panic stricken by failure of
several private banks, jammed and
'. fought their way today into a atate
bank in that district and created a run
on the institution.
The bank was that of Scliiff & Co.,
which-has more than $2,500,000 in de
posits and is believed to be absolutely
solvent.
Banks in the West Side foreign
quarter ire opened here for a few
hours on Sunday. When the Schiff
bank opened at 8:30 a. m. a crowd of
depositors entered and began with J
drawing funds. Police protection,
was asked. More than $50,000, mostly
in savino-a arrmmta. had heen with
drawn when the bank closed at bf
p. m. Samuel S. Schuster, cashier, an
nounced there is plenty of money on
hand and that all depositors who wish
will be paid tomorrow.
Schuster blamed the run on excite
ment caused by the crash of the Silver
& Co., Michael Michniuk & Sons and
the M, Ginsburg & Sons private banks
within a few weeks.
Schiff & Co.'s is one of Vhe largest
banking institutions on the West Side.

DIVIDE WORLD INTO
ECONOMIC STRATA
London Chamber of Commerce
Would Abrogate Treaties
to This End.
BASED ON ENGLISH FAVOR
i Washington, Sept. 17. Division of
the world into economic atrata sepa
rated by tariff walls and classified as
allies of the British empire, friendly
neutrals, unfriendly neutrals and
enemy neutrals it urged by the Lon
don Chamber of Commerce. To clear
the ground for thit world reconstruc
tion the chamber concludes in a spe
cial report, a copy of which lias just
been received here, that abrogation of
all "most favored nations" treaties, in
cluding that with the United States,
it inevitable. . ; ;
Free trade would be abandoned and
a series of graded tariffs proposed in
line with the present war groupings
of the nations.- All imports-would be
divided as follows;
Wholly manufactured goods; semi
manufactured goods and articles sole
ly used as raw material in industries;
manufactured foodstuffs, . and raw
foodstuffs.
English Favored.
All parts of the British empire and
its allies would pay minimum duties;
friendly neutrals which allow the
United Kingdom more favored treat
ment would pay twice as much; other
neutrals, giving preferences to other
powers and including neutrals which
might be swung into the Teutonic
commercial system, would pay a ttill
greater tax; and all "enemyi neutrals
would pay the maximum duties, run
ning up as high as 30 per cent.
Rounhlv it is estimated in the report
that this change from free trade to
protection would net a yearly revenue
of about $375,000,000.
Every precaution is urged in the re
port to assuage neutral nations to
prevent them from making commer
cial alliances with encmv countries
after the war. The difficulties arc
spoken of as follows:
Must Abrogate Treaties.
, "It must also be remembered that
our allies have tariff arrangements
still in force with other foreign coun
tries which it is assumed must be
abrogated : before any preferential
trade arrangements can be made will)
the British empire as a whole. In ad
dition the United Kingdom has 'most
favored nation clauses with certain
foreign countries, including the United
States, these it is assumed wouia
have to be terminated, with or with
out compensatory advantages.
-- Britts.il- trade .domination also
would be furthered under the cham
ber's plan by a reorganization of the
consular service anti-dumping taws,
the formation of a ministry of com
merce, with a seat in the cabinet, and
the founding of a large central crdit
bank.
' Enemiea Licensed. -
In addition to the discriminatory
tariffs, subjects of countries now at
war with Great Britain would not be
allowed to live or trade in England
except under license.
American trade expert! are expected
to show the keenest interest in the
chamber'! -recommendation. The
chamber's report has been called to
Secretary Lansing's attention.
Scandinavians Warned
Of More Allied Pressure
Copenhagen, Sept. 17. The Nor

public of the probability of increased
blockade pressure-against Scandi

Since Roumania jpined .the entente
allies, says the newspaper, there is,
only one gap,, namely, Scandinavia,
in the rinft surrounding the central

political purpose is to close that gap.

"Truxton King" at the Boyd.
Having saved the kingdom and
throne of Graustark, and wedded
Princess Yetive and Lorry Grenfall,
it wasn't much of a job to provide
them with progeny and thus continue
the dynastic succession. But Atropos,
the inflexible, nipped her shears, and
the fond lovers passed on, leaving a
boy to be reared by the American
friend of the father and a fine old
chief of police. They brought the
prince up as a good, healthy boy, but
became so engrossed in him they
overlooked a former enemy of the
throne, who was both wicked and en
ergetic. This count planned well to
overthrow the government, murder
the little prince, and take over the
crown for his own. He had all set
for the occasion, and only awaited the.
coming of the twenty-sixth of July to
spring his trap.
Right here is where Truxton King
came on the scene. He is not quite
so resourceful as Lorry Greenfall, but
he's some American, at that. He pies
up the wicked count's scheme by win
ning the heart of the young woman
chosen to toss the bomb loaded with
T-N'vT, or something equally sudden,
into the carriage of the prince, and
between them they thwart the anar
chists, save the prince and the throne,
and one it led to believe that in some
future tale by George Barr Mc
Cutcheoh they will be found, happily
wed, or, maybe, their descendants will
be aiding other rulers of Graustark
to hang onto .the throne of their
fathers. .
Grace Hayward's dramatization of
the novel it good. .She has filled her
Klay with many . little touches of
ome, life, contrasting interesting
scenes with the little boy prince
as the central figure, with dismal dun-
f:eons in which bloody-minded vi!
ians round out their plots and say
"Ha, ha I" as they think of the twenty-sixth-of
July and what it means to
them. She has upset one of the plans
of the author, too' while the presence1
of Truxton King is not minimized,
the real dramatic interest of the play
centers in Olga Platinova, the girl
anarchist, very well presented by Miss
Margaret Neville. Other characters
are well conceived and vigorously
played. Audiences at the Boyd yes
terday gave the piece and the com
pany approval, and its four-day stay
at the theater rs certain to be popu

Vaudeville at the Orpheum.
Three attractions share the headline
position on' the current bill at the
Orpheum, but it was Sarah Padden
who struck the popular fancy of the
Sunday evening audience in an in
tensely dramatic one-act playlet, "The
Clod Miss Padden portrays a peas
ant character living on a farm on the
border line between the north and
the south during the civil war. No
patriotism, no love of country occu
pies hertmind, and she regards the
warring soldie'ra as , nuisances and
nests which interfere with her sleep
.and comfort. Only the insulting
southern soldier who called her cof
fee "poison" aroused her spirit suf
ficiently to Drotect a wounded Union
warrior who sought safety in her
home. Miss Padden portrays the
slovenly character with a tisilcssness
that seems reality. Her company is
excellent and the playlet carries the
"punch" that wins. (j
Claire Rochester, prima donna, who
fearlessly intermingles the classical
with the popular, introduces herself
via the moving picture screen," show
ing her at the wheel of her automo
bile, in which she made a record trip
com coast to coast, and then appears
on the stage in her ear to sing several
numbers in excellent voice. Ralph
Dunbar's Maryland Singers sing
songs of the sixties, and,' closing the
bill, held the audience to the end.
Johnny Cantwell and Rett Walker

dance act that is a sure-fire hit.
George Rockwell and At Wood, who
describe themselves as "two noble

reams That Do
Views of Old Maid
BY DOROTHY DIX.
AS IT SEEMS TO BE.
The old maid speaks:
"Ah, how I envy married women.
"What a wonderful thing it must be
to have the love and protection of a
husband, to have some strong arm to
stand between you and the world,
some buffer between you and the
hardships of existence.
How sweet it must be to have a
husband to love and cheerish you, to
teel that you arc the one woman 111
the world to him, and that as the
years go by his affection grows ten
derer and more chivalrous. .and "to
know that in his eyes, at least you
will never grow old and homely, but
always.be the fair young bride he
married. .
'It must be wonderful to watch of
an evening for the coming of the step
of the master of the House, and to
think of the long evenings of perfect
companionship that you will spend
with the man who is literally your
other half, talking over together all
the little happenings of the day, se
cure in a perfect companionship and
understanding.
"No wonder the organ peals out
'The Voice That Breahes O'er Eden'
at weddings. Marriage is Paradise
regained for a woman.
"Of course, I'm not so badly off as
things go for old maids. I. have art
ample income for all my needs, and
plenty of interests to keep me alert
and alive, and hosts of good friends,
and affectionate relatives, but I am
alone. I have no man to stand be
tween me and the world. I must
fend for myself and look out for my
own interests.
"I've got no husband to tell me I'm
still young and beautiful when I'm
fat and forty; no footsteps to listen
for of an evening; no loving lips to
praise all that I do or leave undone.

Not C6me True-
and Married Woman,
AS IT REALLY IS.
The married woman apeaks:
"I wonder what makes any woman
fool enough to get married! j.
"It's slavery. That's what it is.
Nothing but slavery, that an idiot of -a
young girt gives herself into with- '
out knowing what she's doing. I'll
wager that if marriage licenses had
return coupons attached to them that
there isn't one bride in a hundred that
would not be back in her girlhood
inside of three months.
"They talk about a husband pro
tecting his wife. Huhl There's one
person he doesn't protect you from,
and that's himself. So far as I can
see, the chief thing a man gets mar-'
ried for is t8 get somebody that he
can vent all of hit ill temper and
grouchiness on. - .
"I know my husband talks to me
in a way that he would never dream
of speaking to any other human be
ing on earth, and especially as he'd
never speak to anything else that
wore skirts. He's polite and affable
and gracious to men he has to do bus
iness with and chivalrous to women
in society, but one of the unwritten
laws of matrimony is that you don't
have to show any good manners to
ward a mere wife.
"Companionship that's what every
girl really marries for. Not one hut
band in a hundred ever holds a re.al
conversation with his wife. He goes
to the club of an evening, or else
drowses over the paper and grunts
when he is spoken to. If you'd sub
stitute a store dummy for the average
1 husband his wife would never find out
the difference.
"Perhaps there are husbands that
pay their wives compliments, and still
take an interest in holding their hand
after the first year of matrimony.
"Marriage is no picnic for a woman.
How I envy the old maids wno have,
their own pocketbooks, and their ownr , (
latch keys, and nobody who has a
legal right to tell them of their faults
and criticise their appearance'
