DENVER WOMEN AGAINST
MEXICAN INTERVENTION

DENVER, Colo, April I've will
not tolerate another war in which we
will be the ones to suffer. We will
not bear sons to be shot down like
dogs to protect property in Mexico
or elsewhere"
This was the sentiment expressed
by number of influential women Of
Denver recently when they organized
a Woman's Peace organization which
they hope to make national in scope
Letters will be sent to the women OF
every state in the union urging them
to join in concerted movement to
prevent any invasion of Mexico and
consequent slaughter of their hus-
band, sons, fathers or brothers.
81 wish that the feeling may grow
so strong against allowing American
boys to be shot down to elevate some
politician that American women will
cease to bear sons to sacrifice in an
issue of this kind" said Mrs. Alma
Lafferty, former member of the leg
islature, who was chosen chairman of
the meeting. "The whole Of Mexico
is not worth the life of a single Amer
ican boy. went down into the shad-
ow of the Valley of Death to bear a
son, who fell a victim in an unneces-
sary war in Cuba.
"The noblest example the world has
seen in recent years was shown by
British army officers who resigned
rather than shoot down their brothers
in Ulster. Colorado women who have
had the ballot for 20 years will not
stand for another war. We are the
ones to suffer. Every tear shed dur
ing the torturing days Of suspense.
when We wait for news from the bat
tlefield is one of blood. We will use
our influence and our vote to stamp
out this cruel suffering.
"Women Of Coloradol Remember

slain in other wars for greed. Re-
member how they died in agony b.

The women responded to this ap-
peal with the proposal that every wo-
man in the land be asked to cooper
ate in the movement Notron Angel

asked to address the new organization
later.
Ten vice president will be appointet
by Mrs. Lafferty at Colorado Springs

In the second place, the new law
probably does not effect the patent to
a single piece of land in this section,
where such patent has issued, it only
applies in case wherein the land has
been withdrawn for classification as
coal land, and later classified as nom
coal land and patent issued during
the interim between withdrawal and
classification. That does not spell
much in this section, for the reason
that practically all of our land, where
there has been any trouble at all over
the coal question, has already and
long since been classified and classi-
fled as coal lands. The entrymen
who have kick, and a just kick,
coming over the governments recent
coal craze, are those in the Tiffany,
Allison, Ignacio sections; those on
the Florida and Lower Animas; and
those in the Fort Lewis mesa and La
Plata river sections. .All the land
in these sections is already classified
as coal land and hence, patents will
continue to issue for lands there with
coal reservation exactly the same as
in the past, and patents already is
sued with such reservations will stand
