The Coit Cash By today her relatives may know what became of the young woman who disappeared on Mon- day somewhere between Mont- clair, N. J ., and the Grand Central Station in New York. One can imagine that her parents hope that she is a victim of that strange loss of identity which physicians term amnesia. On Monday the young woman left Montclair at 12:11 p. m. for New York, where she was due at the Grand Central Station shortly after 3. That she boarded the train in New Jersey seems moder- ately certain but certainly ends at that point. She was educated, able-bodied, Well acquainted with the section through which she was assumed to travel, but for all that she has disappeared. Police odi- cials, newspapers, all agencies which can aid in spreading the news of her disappearance and all that can work for her discovery are enlisted in that work and yet, so far as we can ascertain, no pro- gress has been made. Men spent six months, or near that, looking for a person who dia- appeared in the Maine woods and their search, we are told, has been successful, but finding a person in the Maine woods is fairly simple compared with finding one who has disappeared in New York. The task in this case is compara- ble, to finding'a specific grain of wheat in a bin containing some hundreds of bushels of that cereal. Anything may have happened or nothing may have. If she is, as some have sug- gested, a victim of amnesia, she may be found a month or six months or six years hcnce. This trouble is more likely to be the fate of an older person. Through some derangement of the switch- board which links the past of each one of us with the present, all knowledge of past events van- ishes. The victim may not recall his name or his occupation. So far as these matters go, he has the body and mind of an adult but with a pitiful fragment of a mem- ory which extends back less than a day. He may retain an aptitude for certain work and begin life anew and then, after an inde- terminate period, the wires will clear and he will recall his past life. Something of this sort may have occurred in the case of this young woman, but, as we have said, her age is against that. Unless her relatives have knowledge which they have not made public, and that seems unlikely, they must hope that an attack of amnesia is responsible for her disappearance, Any other theory would be too in- tolerable to consider. 0 C O Sheppard-Towner Act- House Chairman Keith went to the heart of the matter when he told his colleagues on Wednesday that the Legislature should refuse to accept the Federal aid offered under the terms of the Sheppard- Towner act because the time had come to cut loose from Federal government in matters that were purely within the jurisdiction of the state. In passing the bill re- ;eetlng the aid, the House showed itself in agreement with the state- ment that the state was still comp patent to look after is own busi- ness. things as are 811 lied to be vided for by thfgheppard-Topwt er act can be administered by the indindual communities with such this assistance as may seem ed- vlsable than by a blanket policy ington is apparent to those who The members of the House acted 'miney from the Federal vern- ism in return tor whsieoh the the pleasure of directing how 1 __t money as well as the money I O- r: How much more capably such » moment bureau would a... 9 fie By Cal Ender Mtheliteotuhweean‘t‘seewhy ”In. people make sucha ruse over the word “walla" asapplied to the uniform. . e- e e meow: .
