Army has com- pleted a survey which leads it to the conclusion that 18 is the dangerous age and that of all classes of work- ers "women cooks possibly have the highest moral standing." The study covered a six months period. It was made under the di- rection of Lt. Col. Annie J. Cowden, in charge of women's social work of the central territory, comprising 11 states, The material was gathered principally from the homes and mae ternity hospitals of the army mains tained to care for unwed mothers and their children. : The survey announcement said that assistant beauty parlor operators and women a are second in moral standing. Grouped next were college girls, The survey shows that more home girls, school girls, and domestic sers vants have come under the care of the army than the members of any other class. Of 653 cases included for study in the survey, the report said, the ages ranged from ten to thirty-three. In occupations there were two cooks, three Qeauty parlor assistants, three electrical operators, four seamstress. es, five laundresses, four college girls, nine teachers, eleven nurses, twenty-two clerks, thirty-five office workers, twelve telephone operators, forty-five factory girls, sixty-one waitresses, 110 school girls, 99 home girls, and 214 maids and other dom- estics, Causes of Trouble Colonel Cowden believes that "the relatively higher percentage of girls coming as either members or work- ers from home-shelter and who have made a "misstep" maybe attributed to the promiscuous teaching of sex hygiene to mixed classes as affect. ing high school girls, to idleness af- fecting home-girls; and loneliness ai- fecting servants. "The figures from the survey do not pretend to be representative of any one group since they represent but a small cross-section of the pop- ulation," Col. Cowden said. SEEK SHUGGLERS OF ALIENS TOUS, Balitmore Stowaways Rouse Interest of Immi- gration Department Baltimore, Aug. 30.--Immigration officials sought trails of an interna- tional organization, smuggling aliens into this country, as the second re- ports of deaths of stowaways in holds of ships was received here, Two men, concealed in the hold of the Munson Liner Munisla, died of suffocation from gasses generated by raw sugar in the ship's hold.

Prest in Suffolk Superior Court, here Monday, apparently brings to an end one of the most extraordinary legal battles of its kind in recent Amen. can history. Judge Prest allowed the $5,000,000 will aiter dismissing the clam of Annie S. Fretwell, of San Francisco, supposedly a first cousin of the de- ceased. After Miss Crabtree died on Sep- tember 25, 1924, 87 self-styled Sa ters, cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews sought permission to contest the will, which left most of the act ress' wealth to charity. One by one, during the succeeding years, these claimants were eliminat- ed, and finally, of the 87, only the Fretwell claim remained, In disposing of this, Judge Prest said: * 3 "No evidence was offered as to the grounds on which she bases her des sire to contest the will. 1 find as a fact that Mrs. Fretwell did consent to the probate of the will and by her acts and conduct toward the cour and the proponents continued to man ifest her assent up to April 25, 1927, though the return day was Nov. 6, 1924. "It is to be inferred she had that intention (to contest the will) at he time ef the Cockburn hearing n December, 1926. She never reveals bd it till April, 1927, Her failure to isclose her purpose was not caused by accident, mistake, inadvertance, or ignorance, but was with intent to thislead the proponents and the court to gain financial and other advan- tage for herself; and it had the ef: fect intended, and has been preju- dicial to the proper administration of the estate." Miss Crabtree's will provided, among other things, the establish- ment of a $2,000,000 trust fund for the benefit of soldiers, sailors and wo- men disabled in the world war, HIRCOCK BROS.
