il to-day Mrs. Fitzpatrick said:
Great interest is being taken in
this matter all over the State and
both men and women see the wisdom
of adopting such measure We
know that the best, safest and most
sanitary school houses and the best
managed schools are the ones where
women have voice in their con-
struction, supervision and care
we know that the women have
done most toward establishing libra

and that the women have worked
the hardest for proper hospital ar

Therefore we believe that women,
carefully selected because of their
qualifications to serve on these
boards. viii be of untold value.

BIG MAJORITY

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 2a-Soll-
darity OF the Republican party in Cal
ifornia is established by returns from
1924 irecincts in the state out of a to-
| tai Of 1853.
This is the undisputed opinion Of po-
litieal observers who yesterday d.
gested the vote cast at Tuesdays pri-
mary election on the basis of avail
able figures
Republican State Central Committee.
summarized the situation as follows:
There can be no doubt that the
Republicans of California are united.
Governor Johnsons boast that the
magnificent Republican registration
did net Indicate Republican supremacy
has been made ridiculous by the Re-
publican primary vote.
What Cold Figures Say:
Lets see what cold figures say,
The combined vote OF the four Repub-
/ llean candidates for governor in 1924
precincts in California is LIS, 500.
| From the returns we have Fredericks
has s2,703, Keesling 1886, Ralston
20. al, BelSbaw 2O,S59
Now let's see II the Republican
electors we're consistent The vote
for United States Senator on the Re.
publican ticket in the same number
of precincts was as follows: Know
land 1885, Shortridge $4,000. The
total Is 175,S94. Please observe how
nearly alike is the total vote for the
ID an,,bi;oa, oan.N;datas for erv,tyr.,-,, n >.
and United States Senator There is
a difference CT only 255 votes. It may
be taken for granted that the same
ratio will prevail in the remaining
precincts.
Progressive Weakness
Lets see what the Progressive
strength is. Hiram Johnson polied for
governor in the precincts that have
reported a total Of 7S,S0S Heney and
Rcwell. Progressive candidates for
United States senator. received 52.432
and 21,S62 votes. respectively, making
a total of 1924 1t doesn't take
mathematician to figure out the sig.
nifieance OF those figures
There has been much jubilation on
the part Of Progressives because of
the vote received by Eshleman for
lieutenant governor on the Republi- |
can ticket Always considering that |
we have returns from only 1924 pre-
cincts In the state. let's see how Esh-
lemsn stands. For lieutenant govern
or Bauer, Shinn. Ward and Williams |
have polled 91,7l1 Republican votes |
Eshleman was given 65.491 RepubIi-
can votes. Certainly that doesn't |
mean that the Republicans of Califor-
MIA have voted approval Of the John
son administration
Significant Figures.
For secretary of state the returns |
from 1924 precincts in the state out OF |
1883 show that Frank G. Jordan. Re-
publican candidate. received 96.176 |
votes. while James M. Murphy and f. |
]. O'Brien, Progressive candidates. |
polled combined vote of 36,79a
IF that isn't significant | don't |
know what is.
The same comparisons can be
made In regard to other contests i /
never have been more certain of Rel
victory than | am now. Cap |
tain Fredericks having been nominal |
ed by the Republican party for govern
or. win receive the united support OF |
California Republicans. Just as sure |
as the sun will rise tomorrow. Fred |
ericks viii be the next governor Of |
this state"
