Urges Instruction of
Girls in Wife's Duti
PHILADELPHIA, June 9.—Teaching
by parents of sex hygiene to children
and girls engaged to be married are
advocated by Frederick Hinckley.
Speaking on “Covering Evil With a
Mantle of Silence,”” Mr. Hinckley said:
“Girls should be instructed in the du
ties of wifehood and their parents should
get over the false idea that to discuss
these matters oversteps the bounds of
propriety.”’

Zapata Strikes
Hard Blow at Huerta
By THOMAS P. COATES.
VERA CRUZ, June 9.—Unconfirmed
reports reached here to-day that
Cuernavaca and Puebla have been
captured by rebels. If these reports
are true, President Huerta is suffer
ing severe reverses in the South and
ihis downfall may be accomplished by
the forces of General Zapata before
' the Constitutionalists open their cam
paign for the capture of the capital.
- Important developments in connec
tion with the liner Antilla and her
cargo of munitions of war for the
Constitutionalists are expected at
Tampico within the next 48 hours.
'Huerta’'s action in rescinding his
blockade order has averted danger of
a clash between the United States and
the Mexican Government for the pres
ent, but if the Antilla is allowed 10
land her war cargo, further difficuliies
are bound to arise.
The United States has been placed
in a peculiar position by Huerta. The
blockade which he ordered was actu
ally prevented by Rear Admiral Mayo
at Tampico, when he notified the com
manders from the gunboats Bravo and
Zaragoza that they could not put It
into effect. It was as a resuit of this
notice from the American commander
that tne gunboats steamed southward
from Tampico yvesterday, and not as
the result of any order from President
Huerta. :
As a matter of fact, the gunboats
now returning to Puerto Mexico have
not received any offigial communica
tion from the Mexican Government
yet. Shortly after Mayo had given
warning that the blockade should not
be effected, he received word that
Huerta had rescinded his order, and
this news he transmitted to the Mex
ican commanders, but they rgceived
no direct communication from Mexico
City.
