Officers of the Washington Plate
Printers Union are working hard to-
day to convince Senators that the pro-
posal to substitute power presses for
hand presses for printing money should
be accorded careful Investigation. The
unionists desire to attend the Smoot

sured that that hearing will not end the
matter.

From reliable quarters within the
camp Of Champ Clark comes the In
formation that there is genuine alarm
over the situation In Missouri as be-
tween the Clark and Folk forces. Far
from being walkaway for Speaker
Clark. the contest in the State Is !
close and uncertain one. Speaker
Clark has confidence he Is going to
win, but some Of his friends are not
SO confident and are much concerned
over the evidences of Folk strength.
On the surface, the contest Is q
but those who know the inwardness OF
Missouri politics point out that It is
far from being this. As a matter Of
fact, 1t is O night between two schools
Of Democratic politicians for the con-
troll Of the organization of the State.
That explains why the outcome is
doubtful.
View of Outsiders Erroneous.
People living outside OF Missouri.
Knowing the fact that Mr.. Clark Is
Speaker of the House, and has the pres
tige of that high Office. are wont to
assume that he has the State sewed up,
as matter of course.
Hut this Is not only not the case, but
It Is not at all Impossible that the forth
coming district and State conventions
will result in the complete demoittion
of the Clark boom. such result
would be Of the utmost national I'M
portance in that It would change. the

SAYS SHOE TRUST
HAS Prosecuted
HIN FORTY YEARS
Boston Dealer Gives Inter
esting Story Before Com
- f.t
mittee of House.

A story Of forty years persecution of
an independent shoe manufacturer by
the Shoe trust, was begun before the
House Committee on judiciary today.
Charles III. Jones. member of the Com
mcnwealth Shoe and Leather Company.
of Boston, told the committee, which is
now holding hearings on the La Fol-
lette antitrust law bill and the Thayer
patent bill. how lie had struggled, as
an independent, for forty years to exist,
free from the clutches Of the trust.
Former Congressman Littlefield of
Maine, counsel for the United Shoe Ma
chnery Company, of Boston. against
which the Government has filed a bill
In equity for alleged violation of the
Sherman law, attempted to prevent
Jones from testifying before the COM
mittee. He declared the testimony
would prejudice the courts in the pend
ing litigation. and appealed to Chairman
Clayton for decision.
Rights of Citizen.
Clayton held that Jones. vested with
the rights of an American citizen, was
privileged to present his grievances to
the committee. Littlefield again asked
that Jones' testimony be not taken ip
the records. Clayton, however, reiter-
ated his former decision. and Jones con-
tinued:
II am asking for relief" said he, land
II is quite necessary that l. point out
what the burdens are. Previous to the
formation of the 'trust-meaning the
United Shoe Machinery Company
there were numerous shoe manufactur-
ers who used different types of ma
chinery. There was no monopoly. Com
petition was intense. These companies,
too numerous to mention. were grad
ually purchased until they were con-
trolled by three great corporations.
Now they are exclusively controlled by
one concern.
Has, Had Struggle.
"For forty years I have struggled for
an existence without surrendering to
the trust and /. think my story will
be of benefit to the committee in the
consideration Of these bills
At this point. Chairman Clayton re-
quested that further testimony be with
held until the afternoon session, as the
members of the. committee were COM
PEELED to be on the floor of the House

bill. which is expected to pass Nate

to heed. At first the loss of hair may
be so slight as to be hardly noticeable.

SUFFRAGE NOTES

Norway was the first sovereign pow
er in the world to grant full suffrage
to even. a part of it's women. This was
done in 1907, when taxpaying women,
who had been given the communal
franchise in 1901, were admitted TO full
parliamentary suffrage. In 1910 the
communal franchise was extended to
all women. Norway is the first sover-
eign power to have a woman in parlia-
ment.
The woman suffrage movement in
Iceland dates back to 1870, although as
early as 1850 a law was passed giving
boys and girls equal inheritance, q
measure of Justice for which the wo-
men of England are still striving. In
1908 women were given the municipal
vote and made eligible to municipal
councils. A bill giving the parliament
tary suffrage to women has been pass
ed by both houses OF parliament, bu:
the law requires the approval of d
measure by two successive parliaments
before 1t can be adopted.
