New York SnOWstOrm
RObS Babies of Milk

NEW YORK. Feb. 16.-New York
faced one Of the most serious situa-
tions in years today. when a steady
fall of snow set in, augmenting the
great drifts which choked the city
streets as a result Of the storm Of
Friday and Saturday.
A milk famine already gripped the
city and coal and food shortage ap-
peared imminent Thousands of poor
babies are suffering and charitable
institutions are unable to meet the
demands for relief. E.
Although 10000 men with teams and
wagons have been toiling constantly
since Saturday they have scarcely
made any impression on the great
drifts which have blocked traffic and
de,noralized business.
Delivery of milk yesterday was pos
sjble only i'm sleighs. Dairy COM
panies put big boxes on runners and
made part of their rounds
Three more deaths were reported as
n result of the storm today. H-
The temperature stood at seventeen

.SUFFRAG|STS STILL
LOOK TO CONGRESS
Mrs. Rheta Childe Dorr Says
Women Will Take Fight to
Voters If Necessary.

I'VE have by no means given Up hope
that the present session of Congress will
SEQ our suffrage bill safely through.
The situation is hopeful. IN spite Of the
fast that the party has caucused against
consider it's action against the suffrage
cause. But il our optimism proves un-
founded. we will be forced to go to the
voters of the country. and ask them to
ccnsure the party In power by destroy
ing the Democratic majority In Con-
gress.''
This is the attitude Of the Congress
sinnal Union as voiced by Mrs. Rheta
Oorr. editor of The Suffragist, in repudi-
ating statement attributed to her in
I'hila delphia that. the Union had de-
ciared war on the Senate, centerins its
attack on Senators Thomas, Chamber
Ian and Smith, Of Arizona
We. have not sentenced any members
Of the Senate or the House to the guillo-
tine" she continued, nor have we dis
ctssed the political situation in States
where Democratic Senators are coming
up for reelection.
"On the contrary. we are especially
hopeful of the outlook. because the Ju-
dietary Committee has consented to give
US hearing on March 3.
Another phase Of the situation which
We consider favorable is that Vice
President Marshall and Speaker Clark
have been kind enough to grant US per-
mission to hold a mass meeting on June
.. on the steps of the Capitol. a conces-
sion never granted to any body Of wom-
en- before.
But If. in the end. our optimism
