over The PRESIDENCY
Br The United Press.

By The United Press.
NSSiINlLLE, Tenn. Nov l2.-Dele-
gates from the Woman Suffrage AssO-
ciation of the Southern States, which
closed its convention yesterday at
Chattanooga, today augmented the
army of suiTragists gathered here for
the convention Of the National Ameri-
can Woman's Suffrage Association, be-
ginning this afternoon. The Southern
contingent will throw its strength to
Mrs. Desha Breckenridge, Lexington,
Ky, for the presidency.
The caucus last night was thrown
into a clash of factions by the refusal
of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw to accept
Office as president emeritus and TO per-
NIT Mrs. Breckinridge to become presi-
dent without opposition.
Peace advocates submitted a slate
for officers, which aside from MIS-.
Breckenridge for president, called
for: Miss Katherine B. Davis, New
York, and Mrs. William Kent. Cali
fornia, as vioe-presidents; Mrs.
/ Stanley Mccormick, Chicago, treas
urer: Miss Anna Martin. Nevada
corresponding secretary; DR.. Amelia
/ Keller, Indiana, recording secretary;
Mrs. Grace Thompson Seton, Con-
necticut. and Mrs. Nellie Somerville
Greenvi'le, Miss, auditors.
No selection for first vice-presi-
dent was made because Mrs. Grace
Wilbur Trout. Chicago, is being i'm
portuned to take that office.

FEDERAL BUILDING
PROSPECTS ROSY
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION AS TO
FARGO's NEEDS INDICATES AC-
TION WILL BE TAKEN IN NEAR
FUTURE AT WASHINGTON ON
NEW FEDERAL BUILDING.

Prospects for immediate action at
Washington looking toward an ade-
quate appropriation for Fargo's new
federal building, became brighter today
when a request for information con
corning Fargo's needs came from Daniel
c. Roper, first assistant postmaster
general.
Mr.. Roper asked the local postofEice
to furnish him with information as to
the population of Fargo ten years ago.
the present population n the est1-
mated population ten years hence, the
number of carriers here during the
same periods, the amount of working
room necessary and the size OF the
lobby required, the total number of en-
pleyees in the Fargo office, the number
of other federal officials with offices In
the federal building and the amount OF
space necessary for their work. the
number of lock boxes and drawers III
the local postofhce, the number OF
stamp and money order and
numerous other things.
The information requested will be
sent to Washington at once. 1t is be-
lieved by local officials that the show
ing will make plain the inadequacy OF
the quarters Afforded by the present
federal building. An appropriation for
the purchase of a site for the proposed
new building has already been made
and a bill providing for an ~appropria-
ton for $500, 900 for the new building
is now before congress-, with prospects
bright for it's passage at the present
session. The request for information
Is regarded as indicating early action,
in the opinion of local authorities.
