WOMEN URGE HOUSE TO ACT.
Seek Aid Of Elections Committee t
Pass the French Bill

Washington, y. c., March 25-Wom.
an srffragists, headed by Rev. Olympia
Brown of Wisconsin, president OF the
Federal Suffrage association, yesterday
sought the aid of the House elections
committee in behalf of the French bill
which would provide that women who
are citizens OF the United States and
possess the qualifications required of
men voters, shall be eligible to vote "in
all states of the union at elections for
members of the House of Represents
tives and the United States Senate.
Mrs. Clara Bewick Colby of Portland,
Or, speaking in support of the bill cited
the decision of Chief Justice fancy,
that the words, People of the United
States" and Citizens" are synonymous
terms, and mean the same thing, and
added that the constitution now provid-
ed that "the people" should choose the
members of the House and Senate. Mrs.
Colby further pointed out that women,
by leaving the states where they now
vote, not only lost their local rights, but
were treated as though they were no
longer citizens of the United States. She
declared that Congress should consider
it an obligation TO protect women eiti-
zens as far as it is within the power of
the federal government.

OIL Ranasa on Naval Vessels.

In agreement with the navy depart
ment policy Of using oil instead Of
coal there have been installed on the
Pennsylvania and on Battleship 80 oil
ranges for cooking purposes. In the
matter of first cost there Is q saving
by the use of oil for cooking Of about
$500 for each ship and in operation
the economy is much more marked.
The question. Of the economy OF oper-
alton in the galley is quite important.
Thus the batch Of bread alone baked
each day for the crew of a modern
dreadnaught calls for the use Of about
six barrels of -four. The relative costs
Of cooking by the different methods
have been found. to be as follows a
day: Electric range, $22.50; coal
range, $16; oil range, $5.65. When
in addition to the economy, the clean
Illness and absence of ashes 10 con-
sidered, the advantage Of cooking by
oil on a ship which burns Oil only in
its main boilers is readily apparent.
