Case to Highest

COURT
NEW VOUK. Oct 30. New Tork'a law
against the preachment of birth control wilt
be fought to tho United States Supremo
Court, If necessary. It was announced this
afternoon following conviction of Miss Jes
sie Ashley, head of tho women's law de
partment, New York University, on a charge
of distributing birth-control pamphlets.
A divided court -sentenced her to a ISO'I
.ST- - 4 W . '
fine or ten days In City prison. Sho pad the
fine under protest and1 entered an appeal.
Dissenting from tho opinion of his col
leagues. Judge Mclncrney In Special Ses
sions, advocated 'a straight-out thirty-day
sentence and attacked'the woman for violat
ing the law In order .that she might test
Its constitutionality.
This dofendant knew the law and delib
erately violated it." ho said, "so I think sho
should bo punished. These people knew
that this court has repeatedly passed on this
law and If they want to cnange it why don't
they go chango It? 1 don't see why clem
ency should bo given."
Miss Ashley, a thin, gray-haired woman
of fighting Massachusetts abolitionist stock,
sat calmly during proceedings, listening
through an ear trumpet to the court's ar
raignment of her acts.
In two cases of young men, found guilty
of selling birth control pamphlets, and like
wise In tho Ashley case, Judge Freschl laid
down the principle that preachment of birth
control as a propaganda constitutes a worse
offense than the mere selling of such In
formation as a solely moneys-making propo
sition. The defense admitted the distribution.
It had been Intended as a test, and, backed
by wealthy Itose Pastor Stokes, the fight
will go to the highest court In the land, if
necessary.

There were fifty American horse tend
ers upon the British freighter Marina
when she left here for Glasgow, accord
ing to agents of her owners. It is un
derstood here, however, that the 'ship
was upon her return voyage when she
was sunk by a German submarine.
LONDON, Oct J.
The Donaldson liner Marina, flying the
British flag, and numbering several Ameri
can citizens among the crew, was sunk oft
the Irish coast by a submarine Saturday
afternoon, with a possible heavy less of life.
The first adlces received here said that
seventy of her crew were missing, only
thirty-four having been landed. Later a
Lloyd's dispatch from Rockhaven asserted
that a patrol boat had rescued the crew,
making It uncertain whether there were
any casualties.
Sun-Ivors declared that the ship waa not
warned. The spot where the' Marina was
torpedoed Is not far from the scene of the
attack upon the liner Lusltanla.
Tho steamship was sent to the bottom by
shell Are. Dispatches from Queenstown
quoted American Consul Frost as report
ing that the ship was torpedoed.
Frost later reported to the American em
bassy here that the Marina was sunk with
out warning. He did not give the source
of his Information.
Another Queenstown dispatch declared
that the American Consul had learned when
the big steamsblb Ttowanmore was sunk
last Thursday (he submarine shelled the
ssel while the crew was still aboard and
later shelled the boats.
Tho Rowanmore, according to Frost's
report tried tor fifty minutes to escape
from the derrrjan ubmatln,e. Her steering
gear was shot away and the master brought
the vessel to & stop, signaling he was
abandoning her. The submarine continued
shelling and sHellerl the IJfebpft.tll after they'
hid cleared. There were 'no casualties.
however, MU9lOittMubmk'fI&:'tO!-

The two Americans on-board were George

ton. Frost will get affidavits from the
two Americans.
WASHINGTON, Oct SO, A hew sub
marine Issue with qermany may have been
raised, orflclals here agreed today, by the
sinking of the Glasgow horse ship Marina
by. shellflre from a. German submarine Sat
urday, Accordlpg to a cablegram from
Consul Frost at Queenstown, the sinking
was without warning. Frost satd the crew
was reported to Include Americans.
The Marina was sunk about 3 p. m. Sat
urday, 100 miles west of Cape Clear, Frost
said. Thirty-four of the crew of lOl have
been landed, at Crook Haven, he said, but
tllfeboats Nos. 1 and 3 were missing.
In fixing thK biame for the destruction
of the vessel, it -will be necessary to de
termimvthe character of its charter. Some
of. the horse ships which have been plying
between the United States and England
have been under direct or Indirect charter
by the British and French Governments.
In such cases they assume the character
for the, time being of Admiralty vessels
and are subject to attack without warning.
