ANTI-SUFFRAGIST HEAD
RIDICULES Committee
Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge Says Personnel
of Senate Suffrage Body Makes
for Comedy.
CONGRESS AGAINST BALLOT

A statement given out yesterday by
Mrs. Arthur NJ. Dodge, of New York,
president of the National Association
Opposed to Woman Suffrage, character
lied the recent action Of the Senate in
organizing the committee on suffrage as
the greatest legislative comedy ever
enacted
THE suffragists,' said Mrs. Dodge,
have made much of the fact that, out
of the eleevn Senators on this commit
tee, nine are for suffrage. In exploiting
this fact, they have misled the public
AS a matter Of fact, the circumstances
which led to the presence OF the COM
mittee are amsuing.
Before the Senate Democrats held
their caucus, Senator Thomas of Colo
RADIO went to the steering committee Of
the Senate, pointed out that he was
from a woman suffrage State and that.
il he could be made chairman of the
committee on suffrage, it would do him
vast amount of good in his home
State. He then made the direct re-
quest to members of the steering COM
mittee that he be given this chairman
ship.
The steering committee and the
caucus. considering the whole matter a
joke, as several or them nave since told
me, readily gave Mr.. Thomas the chair
manship and permitted him to make UP
the membership of the entire committee
Naturally, he put on it in great
majority the Senators from the Western
woman suffrage States.
THE Senate is opposed to woman suf-
frage. and so is the House. According
to tentative poll which has been made
of both bodies, it seems that the
membership of Congress is against the
FeCeral amendment to the Constitution
for suffrage, by about two to one. Mo-
body knows this better than the Con-
gressional advocate of woman suffrage.
Finally, the rebuffs which the suffragists
have received at the hands of the
President are sufficient indication that
in Washington the advocates Of votes
for women have run against a stone
wall of opposition

furnished the music, and the dancing
continued until an early hour in the
morning. A supper was served at mid
night. and an early breakfast of scrambled
eggs and sausages was enjoyed by the
guests before they went home.
The midnight cotillion was led by
Preston Gibson. There were five favor
figures and the favors were unusually
handsome and unique. One of the
prettiest figures was a butterfly dance.
during which the lights were turned
low and the only illumination came
from the tiny electric bulbs concealed in
the butterfly favors, carried by the
women. and the be-ribboned wands
carried by the men.
The souvenir favors were gold and
enamel saive boxes for the women and
gold pencils for the men.
A unique favor figure consisted of
fancy hats for the women and Chinese
hats for the men. and during a musical
figure, horns were given to the guests.
Other favors for the women were hand
painted band boxes and the men receiv-
ed match boxes.

Five Members of Official Family on

Firing of Hampton Roads.
MISS WILSON ON ANOTHER SHIP

- On board q. S. S. Wyoming. off Hamp-

stuffed i'm their ears six members Of
President Wilson's Cabinet stood on the
bridge Of this big Dreadnought toda v
while her ten and twelve-inch guns, only
few feet away, roared out shells in tar
get practice.
On the bridge of the Wyoming were
Secretary of the Navy Daniels, Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo, Secretary of
the Interior Lane, Secretary of Labor
Wilson, Secretary of Agriculture Hous-
ton, and Postmaster General Burleson. 1T
was the first opportunity many of these
officials ever had to be aboard a big
fighting ship, when her batteries were in
action, and they marveled at the ma
chine-like precision at which the men
worked and the guns Numbered their
shells at the canvas targets six miles
away.
Secretary Daniels, with binoculars at
his eyes. followed the flight of shells.
Fine, fine" was his comment as the
projectiles hit the mark.
The Wyoming headed firing squadron
of three battleships, the other two being
the Florida and North Dakota. The fir
ing practice today concluded the long
range finding. The Wyoming fired over
seventy shots.
Miss Eleanor Wilson. daughter of Pres
ident Wilson. and the wives and families
of the Cabinet members, on the Wyom-
ing, who came to Hampton Roads to see
the firing, were on board the Idaho,
which followed the ships on the firing
line, but took no part in the shooting.
1t was considered too dangerous on the
Wyoming for the women, although most
o. them protested that they were not
afraid and insisted upon being on one
of the firing ships.

MORGAN'S WIDOW
IN BIG TOWN HOUSE
BEARS GRIEF ALONE

New York. April Mrs. ]. p. Morgan,
pathetic in her sorrow, has not left the
big house at Thirty-sixth Street and
Madison Avenue since the word came OF
her husbands death in Rome. And. save
for the visits of her son, John Pierpont
Morgan, jr., her daughter Anne and a
few very intimate friends, she has spent
her first mourning hours alone.
1t was said today by close TREND OF
the family that Mrs. Morgan's grief is
more poignant, perhaps, than is that or
any other member of the family. She
is said to have literally worshiped her
husband. She expected to see MIN re-
turn as well as ever, and, according to
report refused to believe the first cable
gram announcing his death. On Tuesday
it was feared that she would collapse
but, despite her grief. she has borne up
wonderfully.
