UNDERWOOD ORDERED TO BED
House Leader Has Slight Fever and
in Danger of Breakdown.

Chairman Underwood Of the ways
and means committee was ordered to
bed today by his physician. who de-
clared he has a slight fever and was
in danger of breakdown from hard
work on the tariff bill. He may be
confined for several days. His illness.
however, did not interfere with the
House caucus today. which will work
on.
Chairman Underwood's friends were in
clined to minimize his illness, saying he
surely would be back at his desk after a
few days. Politically, his enforced alb
sence from the democratic caucus
as chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee and leader of the House demo-
Gratis, standing behind the administration
tariff bill, was considered of such i'm
portance that it could not be dismissed
lightly
Today, Representative Francis Burton
Harrison of New York, one of Mr.. I'm
derwoods closest lieutenants and a
stanch supporter Of the administration,
took charge at the caucus and the work
went on.
There Is a strong fight on in the House
against the administration wool and
sugar program.
1t is conceded on every side that the
absence of Mr.. Underwood gives courage
to the forces opposing the proposals Pres
ident Wilson favors.

THE conservation of our boys and girls
is one of the most vital problems that
confront the American people. The child
is a delicate and highly sensitive ma
chine, and the mother should be equipped
with a training which will enable her to
understand each child, his moral as well
as his mental qualities
Realize Life of Child.
Some one has said that the nation is
just beginning to realize that the child
who goes into life without having learned
to play, having been robbed of his child
hood, has taken the shortest road to the
almshouse or the penitentiary. Play
amusement-is Of the greatest I'M
portance; the child must play; he must
be amused.
1.-The child of today is the future re-
public. Here our beautiful c. A. r. work
! appears, and i am sure Is doing much
! good. Keep the spirit and the tone OF
every young society in all our fair land
up to the highest standard. Keep to the
| task of planting In the hearts and minds
Of the young people the quality Of pa
| triotism that their forefathers so well
exemplified.'
! Wednesday the children will have a tea
| at Rauscher's, during which the minue
will be danced by children in colonial
costume. Saturday trip will be made
to Mount Vernon. when a wreath will
be placed on the tomb of Washington

Fair Election Sought
by Mrs. Story in an
Appeal to Mrs. Scott

An exchange of letters between Mrs.
Story and Mrs. Scott last night dealing
with the conduct of the election Wednes-
day stirred up much feeling In d. A. r.
circles. The executive committee of the
conservative party, headed by Mrs. Story,
sent a letter to Mrs. Scott, asking that
! certain measures be taken to insure a
fair election. Mrs. Scott replied that a
fair election had been already assured.
Mrs. Story's letter declared that the
membership Of the society was FESTIVE
under a fear that the high ideals upon
which the society was founded were being
to some extent set aside for the lesser
considerations of political. advantage
and urged that steps be taken to insure
fair treatment to each candidate for
president general.
It asked that fair representation be
given each candidate on the credentials
committee; that no delegates be allowed
to vote out of order; that prompt recOg-
milton on the floor be given conservative
leaders; that copy of the financial re-
ports be given each delegate before the
election; that the voting machine be ex-
amined before placing in it the names
of candidates and that each candidate
be allowed to have representative wit
ness the operation Of the machine; that
report be ordered on losses involved
in the operation of the society's maya
zine; that members of the credentials
room and that the room be kept open
at all times.
Mrs. Scott Amazed and Shocked.
In a statement issued later Mrs Scott
said. II was amazed and shocked be-
yond words when l was confronted by
two attorneys sent by Mrs. Story to de-
mand that l observe the most elementary
rules of common honesty and fairness in
conducting the forthcoming election"
She added that the implication of this de-
mand was without shadow of founda-
ton in fact, and reflection upon the
fairmindedness and sense of justice of the
entire membership Of our splendid or
ganization.
Mrs. Story will have this year. as she
had two years ago. square deal from
start to finish,' Mrs. Scott added 1.-The
forthcoming election will be conducted
with absolute fairness to all the candi-
dates.
Mrs. Story has always been given the
same number of election judges as the
administration candidate and has been
allowed to select them herself. Mrs
Story and the other leaders of her follow
ing have always been given the fullest
recognition on the floor by the president
general"
