B LIGHTHOUSES FOR THE BLIND. [
Atlanta, Ga., May 21?In the State !i
of North Carolina live 1563 of 57,-ji
272 blind people of the United States, j'
according to figures given out by the 11
B* Southern headquarters of the com- 1
mittee for lighthouses for the blind |
here. North Carolina ranks fifteenth i 1
P. among the 4 9 States listed according|<
to blind persons per 100,000 popula- 1
tion and of the above mimhw li
fare white and 623 negroes; 929 of'i
the whites are native born and 2 J t
-^foreign born. The statistics show;<
<VAt there are now 275 blind persons[l
^^ eing cared for in North Carolina <
^institutions. t
The cotnnilttee for lighthouses for t
the blind of which President Warren t
G. Harding is honorary chairman, t
was founded in New York 15-years >
ago by Miss Winifred Holt. Several it
"lighthouses" as they are called ?j
places of instruction for blind per-1 f
(tone to nnnhlo tlin?n trv If
supporting and to provide broader
and more renumerative fields of labor?were
established at that time under
Miss Holt's direction. They proved
so successful that now lighthouses
are functioning in Italy and France.
PlanR are now under way for extending
the United States so that blind
people everywhere will be assisted.
Sponsored and supported by souie of
the greatest national lights in finance,
industry and politics, tbe committee
is about to launch an American
appeal for $2,000,000 with which)
to broaden and extend the scope of
It3 work at home. Contributions niny.
be addressed to Lewis L. Clarke, |
Treasurer, Committee for Llghthous-j
e.i for the Blind, 111 East Fifty-(
ninth Street, New York City. !
Among other interesting data con-,
tained in the committee's statement
regarding the blind is the fact that
of 29,242 cases investigated in this
country, 1900 of that number .ere
born without siplit nn,l IIipsp 700
were the offspring of parents who
wedded first cousins. Of the total ! <
blind population in America. 797fi^
? are earning their own living; 6783 ;
are white and 1103 negroes. The ;
above figures include all sightless t
persons actually making their own (
way independent of others, whose vo- (
cations vary from that of agricultur- 5
alist to store clerk and clergyman. .

LISTS, SAYS LEGIOX (

Indianapolis, Ind., May 22?Assur- 1
an'ces are coming into national headquarters
of the American Degion '
from members in all parts of the 1
country that even though their names !
have been erroneously included on
lists of draft deserters they are willing
to endure this temporary embar- 1
rassment in order that the real slack- '
ers may be held up to permanent
shame.
In some localities legion posts are
checking the lists befor e publication.
Relative to errors that have crept into
the slacker lists, National Com- t
mander F. W. Galbraith. Jr., said:
"The Amcriran T.ecrinn vr\ ran
son to regret the issuanoc and pub- J
lication of the draft deserters lists, i
Tha t publication has shown there are
so many errors in thcse lists is
inevitable in the handling of oiv hundred
and sixty thousand names.

"Many of the men embarrassed by
the erroneous inclusion of their
names are ex-service men and legion
members with honorable records,
rheir embarrassment has been but
temporary, however, as the errors
nave been quickly righted.
"Friends, relatives and neighbors
know who served and who did not
;erve their country and newspapers
nave quickly made amends for unintentional
injury at the hands of the
government. Legion posts throughout
the country stand ready to assist in J
'learing up any confusion. It has not
>een a source of bitterneso to vet-'
f n hn tnninnt-orilt' ^.1 o !
he slackers. At most it has been an '
innoying experience. The bitterness,!
he anger end shame are felt only by
he real slackers, the men whose
tames are on the lists and will stay |
here.
"I believe that nine out of ten ex-!
service men are willing to be slightly)
md temporarily embarrassed if they,
eel that the slackers of the country
ire. at the same time, b'ing rightful-!
y and permanently embarrassed, the J
nore quickly since errors are being'
tuickly cleared up by individuals an<li
>y the American Legion and similar,
organizations.
"As a matter of fact, publication
if these lists gives the opportunity!
of forever clearing the names of the;
nen who served, which otherwise
night through error be stained-1
Newspapers are doing a patriotic ser-!
ice in printing the lists, for it is of.
.he utmost importance that the records
be immediately and finally
leared. Evten though unavoidable er-1
ors occur, the American Legion is'
'irm in hplipvinr thai t Vi ? slnrlrrr lisle:
uust receive the full light of publicity.
Only through publication can
:hc innocent be completely and finaly
vindicated."
