4TH REGIMENT TO CAMP AT NEWARK Will Occupy State grounds Week Beginning July 9. Columbus, April 11.

Ts Race Suicide Wants a Cabinet Officer in Charge of Home Culture Department to Teach Women How be Mothers and Wives. 4 I -I 4 Chicago, April 11. A "Secretary of Race Suicide," a Cabinet of-J. ficer who will have charge of a "Home Culture for the government and train husbands and wives, will solve all questions of divorce and marriage and other problems that agitate the nation.

J. So says Dr. Alice B. Stockman. To-Jay the Anthropology Club is discussing the shock she gave it in her address, in which her novel idea was first given expression.

"It should be known as the Home Culture Department," she said, "and the business of its secretary should be to see that all women are trained in the duties of a wife and all men become acquainted with the duties of a husband. Then there would be no divorces and the race suicide question would be settled forever," The members of the society were slow to grasp the proposition, Jfr But when they realized what it was they became enthusiast and Mrs. Stockham was cheered. "There should be a new department," sand the women, when she had -been introduced. "It should be devoted to human culture.

We now de-vote much time and much money to agriculture and to animal culture. But the government devotes only words to human culture. "What is the condition of many women who are about to become wives? They have absolutely no knowledge of the duties of wifehood. They know less about the state which they are to enter than the of- Jfiec boy does about the business firm for which he is working. And it is A easier for them to enter tlie state ol matrimony than it is for the of- J.

fiee boy to get a job. "I submit that this la wrong. Women should be given best sur-J. roundings. They should be taught how to make a home happy.

It would be necessary to have a competent man a man with much ex- perience, at the head of this- new Cabinet position. J. "If a department were created and politics had no part in it race suicide and the divorce questtion would be settled forever.".
