Permanent Improvements on the trunk line highways of the state. with state roads from east to west and north to south across the state, is the text of a letter just sent out by the organization committee of the Con- ,necticut Automobile association. The letter is sent to automobile clubs throughout the state. asking them to send delegates to a meeting next Mon day at the Hotel Stratford, Brdige- port, when plans for securing these proposed road improvements will be discussed.
 Secretary Charles M. Robinson calls the meeting in the following letter:
 In re Trunk Line Roads.
 Dear Sirs: Al a meeting of the board of directors of thes Connecticut Automobile association on the 20th inst, the following vote was passed:
 That a committee be appointed, consisting of the president, MT. Sta ples, and two others, to be chosen by him, for the purpose of taking up with such boards of trade of various cities as may be interested, and with other interested parties. the question of the organization of a Connecticut Good Roads association for the pur- pose of making permanent pavements on the trunk line highways of this state, This committee to report at a future meeting of this board" In accordance with this vote, Presi- dent Staples appointed as the other two members of the committee J. M 1 Emerson of Ansonia and the writer. am directed to act as secretary of the committee until permanent organiza- l ton is effected.
 Two Paved Highways First. The purpose of this movement is to obtain in the first place a paved high way IS or 20 feet wide running from Portchester, N. r., through Green wich, Stamford, South Norwalk Bridgeport, New Haven, Saybrook New London and Stonington, and 2 north and south road running iron | New Haven through Wallingford necticut valley to the state line on th' north.

 Another east to west highway i proposed running from the state lin near Danbury through Danbury, Wa | terbury, Thomaston, Terryville. Ney Britain, Hartford, Manchester, Ando yer, Willimantic, Norwich and dow 
 whether concrete. macadam, concret with tar dressing, wooden block, o brick, is a question to be settle later
 It is conceded by all that a water bound macadam road is absolutely in : adequate under heavy traffic, as it ne cessftates frequent rebuilding an causes an expense of at least 200 pc cent. per year for upkeep. if the roa is kept in repair
 Build Road to Last.
 It is conceded by every bushes man that a more permanent road, al though 1t may cost twice as much 0 ! the original contract, will at the en of five years cost very much less tha any attempt to maintain a water bound macadam.
 A good permanent highway built o the route above outlined will brin thousands of dollars a year into th state of Connecticut and will mean a increase of millions in the taxab value of property. The increase

WOMEN URGE DEMOCRATS.
Begin Active Campaign at SYRIA
Cuse for Suffrage Plank.
CONFIDENT THEY WILL WIN
Murphy Against Them, but
They Expect Endorsement
of Referendum Plan.

| From Stan Correspondent OF The Tribune.
Syracuse, Sept. so.-Prominent leaders Of
women suffrage arrived here to-day ant
| began a campaign to have the Democrats
! adopt platform containing woman suf
frage plank similar to>the one adopted
| by the Republicans at Saratoga. They
| feel confident they will succeed.
Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blatch and Mis-!
Caroline Lexow were the first TO reach
this city. Miss Lucy Burns, Of Brooklyn
| and two members Of the state committee
OF the Women's Political Union, Mrs
Emeline Schuyler, Of Oneida County, and
Mrs. Alfred Lewis, Of Ontario County
Joined them late this evening
The women held meeting tonight in
Bank Alley, just behind the Onondags
Hotel. The speakers were Mrs. Frederick
R Hazard, chairman OF the Syracuse
Bureau OF the Womens Political Union;
Mrs. Blatch, Miss Lexow and Miss Burns
In the large crowd which gathered were
many delegates. and to these the speakers
largely addressed themselves The women
told them the Democrats could not afford
to refuse the women what had been given
freely by the Republicans.
While many OF the delegates favor
woman suffrage and believe the platform
should contain a plank wOrded like the
one inserted in the Republican platform,
It Is known that Charles f. Murphy is
unalterably opposed to 1t.
Whether the will OF the majority or the
little voice of the Tammany chieftain will
prevail remains to be seem. But the adj
vocates or woman suffrage do not de-
spa!r because OF the attitude OF the big
leader His enmity only makes them
fight the harder
Miss Lexow and Mrs Batch held con-
ference this afternoon with Senator Rob
ert Wagner, the Democratic leader in the
upper house. While none Of the parties
10 the conference would discuss what had
transpired. beyond the fact that woman
suffrage plank was discussed, II Is known
that Senator Wagner Is favorable to the
cause" to the extent Of recognizing the
desirability OF a referendum vote.
The plank prepared by the women and
submitted 70 Senator Wagner reads:
We advocate the submission OF the
woman suffrage constitutional amend
ment TO the voters In 1910.
In Mrs. Edward J. Lazansky. wife oil
