COLONEL FAvORs
WOMAN SUFFRAGE
is Peculiarly a Case for the
Referendum Declares
Roosevelt.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Former Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt ON out
fatty for woman's suffrage In an edito-
rial headed. ''Women's Rights; and the
Duties of Both Men and Women"
which appear In the current number Of
the Outlook. However, the colonel Wig
orously attacks women opponents Of
s'tf1e cause who discredit themselves
and their sex by disorderly antics in
public, and who assail the foundations
Of private and public morality II their
endeavor not TO raise the sense Of
moral duty in man. but to lower the
moral duty IN women"
In part the colonel says:
Il believe in womea's rights. I be-
lieve even more earnestly in the per-
Torrance Of duty by both men
for unless thu average NAH
and the average woman lives lives of
duty not only our democracy but civil
cation itself will perish. ] Believe in
women's suffrage wherever the women
want it. Where they do not whit It
suffrage should not be forced upon
them. In other words this is pecul-
iarly a case for the referendum to those
most directly affected.
perhaps one reason why SO many
men who believe SO enphatlcnlly as
do IN vonlen's full equality with men
take little interest in the suffrage
movement is TO be found in the very
unfortunate actions of certain leaders
in that movement who seem DESTROYS
Of associating it with disorderly con-
duct in public and with thoroughly de-
grading and vicious assaults upon the
morality and duty of women within
and without marriage"
The editorial concludes with a plea to
both men n women that they concen-
trate their efforts to end the folly and
seriousness which is leading SO many
husbands and wives into the divorce
court.

LOOK FOR FIGHT ON
SUGAR TARIFF BILL
Determination to Report 0nf
Measure May Precipitate
fractional War.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The deter
mination Of the Democrats to report
out the sugar and chemical bills before
receiving the tariff boards report will.
1t Is said, precipitate another factionaf
war on the House floor, which will re
suit In more limitations that the Pres
ident will veto tariff bills epare
without the aid of the boards report.
A subcommittee at work on the
sugar schedule has practically deter
mined upon the following method OF
revision: Both the d~ifferential in favor
Of refined sugar and the no-16 duties
standard will be abolished and a fiat
one-cent rate will be levied upon the
sugar content of all grades of sugar.
Under the duties standard the bulk OF
the sugar now coming into this coun-
try pays a. rate of about 1.65 cents per
pound. The cut, therefore, will mean
an immense loss in revenue, approx
mately $780, 00, 900. but the Democrats
propose to equalize this in their re-
vision Of the rubber schedule.
The tariff boards report on wool is
so voluminous that Democratic mem
bers Of the committees have peer un-
able to digest it as yet. The boards
report on the cotton industry will be
ready before the wool bill comes out OF
committee, but the Democrats will not
await the boards action before re-
porting the sugar and chemical bills.

"REINC ARNATION OF
KARMA" CAN'T BE SHOWN
Don't See How Reputable Wom

of Film" Says Minister

DIR. Eugene Rodman Shipper, pastor
OF the First Unitarian church, played
the part of arDiter between the police
department and the General Film Co.,
Friday, when he was asked to pass
judgment on the propriety of exhibit
ing moving picture film called The
Reincarnat.on OF Karma"
Officers Baker and Potter, police
censors OF moving pictures, viewed
the film In the Offices OF the General
Film Co. and decided that IL would
no. do. The company objected to this
decision, claiming that the film was
artistic and unobjectionable. The
censors stood firm. The company in
sisted. Finally DR.. Shipper was APP
rointed umpire. DR.. Shipper saw the
film, and sided with the censors.
The title OF the Aim, OF course,
means nothing" said DR.. Shipper, Sat
urday morning Evidently, someone
lad found the word Karma, and decid-
ed TO make use OF 1t without reference
10 its meaning. Karma, In Hindu
PHILOSOPHY, is not person, but state
of existence.
THE truth was borne in upon me,
as | saw the picture, that what ap-
peals to the eye alone has a vastly
different effect than that which APP
peals TO both eye and ear. can imag-
me stage production, where the
mind follows brilliant dialogue, In
which the actions shown in the pic
lures might not be Objectionable to
me. But the eye alone is a crude ave-
nue. to the mind. That Is why. in my
opinion. the moving picture is not a
nigh form of art 1t has an appeal
fer the uneducated mind, and for chill
dren, but has very little for the edu-
Gated and cultured. There are, OF
course, films that are instructive, such
as scenes in foreign lands, which may
be of considerable service.
But the film which | saw pictured

Who would see nothing wrong In such

that the majority OF those who saw IL

prove it for public reproduction.

ALBANIAN AND GREEK
REVIVE ANCIENT FEUD

The age-old blood feud between

Balkan war that the "allies" against

nizing his racial enemy. refused the
invitation and told why.
AS soon as Passas learned that he
had invited an Albanian to share
his amusement, he became so en-
ragged that he drew large revolver
but was interrupted before he could
start fusillade.
Police nabbed him for disturbing
the peace, and Justice Jeffries fined
him $50. with the alternative OF
serving 60 days.
