WILSON DECLINES
TO AID WOMEN

fuEt OnesJ
reflectively, but you were cunning for
votes them
asking for the votes of the people,"
corrected the President mildly.
"And we admired you for the way you
did it, remarked Mrs. Evans.
The President said he was much more
free to express his views then than he
was now, but did not recall that he had
taken any position the question of
woman suffrage. He never spoke on it
in public during the campaign, and to a
interrupting question once at meeting
in Brooklyn declared it was a state issue
Persons close to the President say he
believes 1t is a problem for the states
to decide, though there is reason to be-
lieve he never has made up his mind
definitely on the merits of the question.
He does not feel incumbent upon him
however, to take a stand on it until the
democratic party has fully considered 1t
and this is the answer which he is de-
termined to give to all delegations OF
suffra gists who come to see him in the
future.
The House democrats have called a
caucus tomorrow to determine whether
the recent unfavorable action of the rules
committee on the proposal to create a
committee on woman suffrage should be
reversed. The President has expressed
himself to one member of the rules com
mittee in favor of such a new COM
mittee.
Most of the arguments presented today
revealed the aim of the woman to correc
industrial conditions with the ballot as
legislative instrument. The President has
told his friends that social justice shoulc
be administered by the United States
government in all it's branches regardless
of the merits of the suffrage movement

five times a day, and at times to as

ton has been of the most flattering
character.
1T is evident to me that the people
throughout Alabama are tired of ex-
travagances. They are tired of thumb
screw methods of taxation. They are
tired of new offices. They are tired
OF a coterie of eX-appointees controll

are going to repudiate. In the rural
section | find that the people are
thoroughly familiar with all of these
conditions, and inasmuch as l have
pledged them an economical business

Putting up an unusually stiff fight
the Crimson basketball warriors of the
University of Alabama last night held
the Athletic club aggregation to a mea-
gre score for two-thirds of the game, only
to falter in their stride during the re-
naming part of the fracas and allow the
basketball experts of the Athletic club
to run up a big score.
From every angle the game was a COM
plete surprise. The team work of the
eollegians during the first part of the
game caused the locals considerable worry
and as result the club team was able
to emerge from the first half leading
by the narrow margin of only points,
the scoring being IA to H.

Graft Caused Defeat

''The cause that led to our defeat he
continued. was the issue that was pre-
sented to the people charging us with
corruption and with being grafters. Evil
dence has been produced since in court
of record that proved some of those
charges. The people have determined
that the charges are true. They showed
that the last election, and IL we ever
want to go before the people again with
candidates we will have to get rid of
that element in our party that is re-
sponsble for this state of affairs
Mr.. Smith in reply said 1t was amazing
that Justice O'Dwyer should say that
what had been brought out in the John
Doe inquiry Constitutes the guilt of
every man mentioned" Mr.. Smith then
began a defense of Mr., Murphy, con-
cluding with a motion to lay the resolu-
ton on the table. Justice O'Dwyer de-
clared the motion not in order and said
the vote should be taken on the adoption
of the resolution
A thunderous AYE" was the response
and a moment later seemingly just loud
no was given. President ODwyer
then announced the resolution passed.
Smith demanded that ballot vote be
taken, but his demand was unheeded and
the meeting adjourned. After the meet
ing Mr.. O'Dwyer stated the resolution
had been adopted in a regular manner
and that the club would go ahead with
it's plans to change the leadership and re-
organize the party.
