WOMEN SHOW CONCERN
IN TOMORROW'S VOTING
Convinced That Result Will Open the
Way to Equal Suffrage.

Convinced that there will not be many
more elections in Pennsylvania at which
the women will have TO sit passively by
rs mere onlookers, Philadelphia suffra
gists are eagerly awaiting tomorrow's
returns.
Although determined. one and all, to
maintain a diplomatic -partisanship
and resolved to steer clear of personali-
ties in expressing their hopes in regard
to the outcome as befits those who have
not the vote, the suffraEists, their friends
say, will be lSeenly disappointed il Pen
rose and his fellow candidates, support
ed by the liquor interests. are the VIC
tors
'One of the things that we are most
anxious about in tOmorrows election"
said Mrs. Frank Miles Day, an active
member of the Equal Franchise Society
and also vice president OF the Pennsyl-
yania Child Labor Association, "is that
the men who are in favor OF the cause
make certain that the candidates for
whom they vote are sincere in their
votes for women convictions,
Although all Of the five parties have
put suffrage planks in their platforms,
yet we feel that some Of the men have
our interests more at heart than others.
And It is these men, OF course, that all
good suffragists are anxious to have
win"
II am particularly interested" said
Miss Caroline Katzensten. secretary of
the Equal Franchise Society, when she
was questioned concerning her attitude in
regard to tomorTow's election, "in the
strenuous endeavor which is being made
to overthrow boss rule, and | think the
very difficulty which Is being encountered
I'm Kidding the state Of boss rule and Of
liquor domination is pointing out to
the Obseryant voter just how necessary
large independent vote is to accom-
plish this. The women, needless to say,
will supply that independent vote.
1T has been proved In the suffrage
States in the West that this is true, that
is. that the women vote every time for
the man and the principle rather than
for the party. Out In Illinois, the very
first time that women had chance to
show just where they stood on the liquor
question. l400 saloons were closed.
"Youll always find that the vicious in
terests are opposed TO woman suffrage.
II shows that they are afraid OF what
we are going to do to them when we get
the vote. I feel absolutely sure that In
1916 the Pennsylvania women will vote
ana when you get the mother point Of
view In Pennsylvania politics you're go
ing to have clean politics, The men who
represent the liquor interests win never
stand a chance then"
The headquarters OF the Woman Suf-
frage party, at 1928 Chestnut street, will
be kept open tomorrow night, and a
large delegation OF suffraglsts are plan
ming TO watch the returns come IN
Throughout the day flying squadrons will
visit the polls and distribute suffrage
literature, after the men have voted,
however" Mrs. s. G. Stewart. the sec
retary, Is careful to explain. I'VE have
no intention Of trying 70 influence the
men at the polls before they have cast
thafr ballots"

ELEVEN HUNDRED
THE DAILY OUTPUT

Over Half Million Ford Cars Are
Now in Use
Detroit, Mich, April 26.-More
than a half million Ford cars have
been built and sold to date. The
five hundred thousand figure was
passed about the middle of April.
The company's big Highland Park,
Michigan factory was speeded up and
completed automobiles were being
turned out at the rate of eleven hun
dred a day as the half million mile
stone was left behind. This was but
a continuation of the pace set in
March, when for twenty-six consecu-
tive working days the daily produc-
ton was eleven hundred cars.
Since 1908 the growth of the COM
pany as indicated by the yearly car
sales has been phenomenal. That
year the sales totaled six thousand,
the next year they jumped to more
than eleyent thousand, the next year
more than nineteen thousand, in
1911 they exceeded thirty-seyen
| thousand, in 1912 thew were more
| than seventy-four thousand, and in
| 1913 they were in excess of one hun
dred eighty thousand.
| And this years sales is keeping up
the pace. The Fords built before
| 1908, those built and sold so far this
year, and the total of the sales for
the six years given above combine to
make a grand total of more than a
half million.
/ These half million cars have been
sold in every country of the globe
where a motor car could possibly run.
They may be found in the interior OF
| darkest Africa, in the valleys of the
Andes of South America, in Ceylon
on the Isle of Jolo, Philippines, and
in the out-of-the-way places of the
/ world.
/ And in most every land there is
/ practically twice as many Fords as
cars of any single make.
4 1T is quite generally agreed that
the slogan Every Third Car a Ford
is practically true in all countries.
