Some Of the eastern trade papers. and a few

OF United States Steel because Il has taken no
contracts for the furnishing OF war material
Now comes the Wall Street Journal and let's n

same topic. the Journal says United States Steel
has refused to consider contracts running into
hundreds OF millions of dollars for the furnish
ing OF war munitions. II goes on, however, TO
point out that the steel works OF Europe are all
busy turning out war material. to the exclusion
OF commercial steel, and that in this the domes-
tic company is finding much employment for its
plants. II Is not taking any chances on putting
up factories that may have to be torn down after
the war, but is making virtue OF necessity by

SPEAKER SAYS NEW DAY
IS DANNlNG FOR WOMEN

St. Paul, Nov. IA new day, day
OF political freedom for women is
dawning in the United States and
with it will come sweeping social re-
forms which will aid in stamping out
drunkenness, prostitution and crime
and will increase the number of
schools and churches. This was the
keynote of addresses at the
opening session Of the Minnesota
Women Suffrage associations annual
convention which continued three
days.
Speaker after speaker at the open
ing meeting said the fight for
equal suffrage in the United States
virtually had been won and that in a
comparatively short time national
acknowledgment Of women will be
granted. They pointed to the number
Of states that already have given full
or limited suffrage to women and
argued that other states, to retain
their prestige in national affairs, ulti-
mately must follow in these footsteps.
To arguments advanced by oppon-
ents of equal suffrage that the wom-
ans place is at home, Mrs. Albion Eel
lows Bacon, of Evansville, Ind, one of
the principal speakers of the day said:
"Woman's place, primarily, is the
home, but the home has been forced
into politics. The welfare of every
mothers home and every mothers
children has forced women into poll
tics. Every home and its children are
virtually affected by laws, the en-
forcement of which often depends up
on politicians of the lowest type.
1.-THE slums, with it's crime and dis
ease and rotten politics, with It's dying
babies and suffering mothers forced
me and many other women into poll
tics. We could get no relief and so ]
went to the legislature for enactment
of a much-needed law. found had
to fight politicians who were opposed
to the law because it would injure
their slum owners and slum BOSSES.
And l learned in this legislature be-
yond the shadow of doubt that the
homes welfare depends upon these
politicians and that to protect the
home it is necessary for the mother to
enter politics. ~
Recently one of the best men in my
state said to me: We don't want to
see our women mixed in politics, be-
cause we couldn't bear to see anything
touch the purity of our women. Their
vote will help only in proportion to
the purity they bring to the ballot
I'VE must prove to the men that II
we can safely mingle with our butch
ers, grocers, coal men, bankers and
lawyers at home and at places of bust
ness, we can still retain our gentle
ness when mingling with them at the
polls. ~ .i-~
"The eternal feminine can never
really change because of physical
facts that have rooted the love OF
home and the maternal instinct so
deep in woman's heart that nothing
can eradicate it." ,:. --.. ..

POTASH At COLUMBUS
VALUABLE MINERAL DIscoV.
Erred ONLY A FEW MILES
FROM ToNoPAH

In searching for domestic source
of potash in the United States. the
geological survey has explored more
or less thoroughly a number of the
desert basins in the west. Among
the regions investigated Is the mud
fiat known as Columbus marsh.
which lies a few miles southwest Of
Coaldale and near Tonopah, and has
an area OF about IS square miles.
Nine shallow wells have been sunk
in this marsh and the borings and
waters have been examined for pot
ash. Though commercial quantities
Of potash were not found and no
saline beds were encountered. the
data obtained in the exploration like
much OF the survey work, have
scientific value, more extensive
chemical study has been made of the
muds from one of the wells by w.
h. Hicks, and the results are given
in a recent survey publications.
position OF Muds from Columbus
Marsh. New issued as Professional
Paper SEA This report shows that
the muds contain high percentage
OF potassium. only a small part Of
which. however. is soluble in water
The results OF the chemical study In.
dictate further that a large part of
the potassium in the muds has been
absorbed from solution and is held
in loosely combined form. This
condition may account for the APP
parent disappearance OF the potas
stun from the salines OF the desert
basin region, and should have
bearing on future exploration for
