MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL Wlktl
Washington, June s. - The note
which President Wilson. with the ap-
proval of his cabinet, had prepared
to be sent to Germany, insisting on an
adherence To the rules OF interna-
tlona law In the conduct of maritime
warfare, was not cabled today. Word
came from the White House in the
forenoon that 1t had been virtually
finished. but the document was not
given to the legal officers of the state
department today as had been ex-
pected.
The reason for the delay in the dis
patch of the note was not revealed.
President Wilson played golf during
the morning and went motoring after
luncheon with members of his family,
returning to the White House after
sundown. Secretary Bryan went drlV-
ing In the afternoon. Counsellor Rob-
ert Lansing went to the.baseball game
Time of Cabling Not Set.
Officials declined to say when the
note would be cabled or what its
status was. The fact that the presi-
dent had practically finished II led "a
the belief that Secretary Bryan would
study it tonight and tomorrow. and
that II would be given to Counsellor
Lansing and other officials of the
state department on Monday for re-
vision Of legal detail.
If the communication is not sent
before Monday night it would hardly
reach Ambassador Gerard before
Wednesday for presentation to the
German foreign office, as about forty
eight hours is allowed by officials now
for transmission of messages via Lon
don and Copenhagen to Berlin.
May BE Marking Time.
In some quarters the delay in send
ing the note was thought to he due to
q desire to give Myer Gerhard per-
sonal envoy of Count Won Bernstorff
the German ambassador now ell route
to Berlin on a Danish vessel, an OPP
portunity to reach Germany about the
time the imperial government would
be considering the American reioin-
der. Officials declined. however to
admit that this was a factor in the
situation.
Diplcmatists generally were inter
ested in when the document would H.
nally be dispatched, but 1t remained
an official secret tonight

No Replies to warning.

The effect of President Wilson's

still unknown to the United states

Evidences of desire on the part
of the Villa-Zapata forces to discuss
terms of reconciliation with the
Carrauza element, however, have not
been lacking.
A coalition of the elements which
originally composed the successful
constitutionalist party in lts campaign

which she must supplement. for her own
protection. by paying additional taxes to
bring in outside military help to MAIN
tain law and order?
Law and Order Question.
And the question of law and order is
deep-rooted in this issue. Why. do you
believe, is every Socialist a suffra gist.
why was the MEMS League for Woman
Suffrage" founded by Socialists: Why
does the historian Of the suffrage move
ment SO heartily approve the aid being
given the cause" by Socialists: and
why does Dr. Shaw herself welcome
every Socialist vote?'
+ There Is reason and a similarity be-
tween these twin agitations that should
direct mems and women's thoughts to
their friendly alliance. and inquire
whether II BODIES good or Ill to this coun-
try. Note and compare the fierce in
dictments Of the men. the laws. and con-
ditions by the suffragists with the same
attacks made by Socialists. And then
think OF the basic principles, given
above. on which this agitation was
founded: "Discontent" regarded as pro-
FORTUNATE to development, and the ''iso-
lated household"-which Christians call
home. indicted as a cause Of woman 8
ignorance and degradation"
Do you wonder why there is a Social
list section In all the Suffrage parades?
But do you not wonder why more per-
sons do not think OF this question, in
stead OF arguing distractions on rights
and taxation that were answered a CEN
fury and more ago?

LOW-Necked Dress Safe;
Don't Figures Prove 1t?
Washington Health Officer Cites Statistics Showing Pne-
monia More Fatal to Men Than
to Women.

Health Officer Woodward yesterday
made public statistics showing that
Washington girls may continue wearing
those pretty low-necked dresses which OK
pose a wide V-shaped expanse of neck
and bosom. The statistics refutcd the
popular belief that Washington girls are
dying from pneumonia and influenza by
barring their necks to the caress of chill
winds.
DIR. Martin Friedrich, chief of the bu-
reau Of communicable diseases in Cleve-
land. recently issued Il statement in
which he warned Cleveland girls against
the low-neck dress. He analysed death
statistics and found that the low-neck
and thin dresses caused many deaths
from pneumonia and influenza among
Cleveland girls.
DIR. Friedrich agrees with the girls that
low necks are healthful. but he adds
in some climates" He declares that
Cleveland and other cities with change
able weather should bar the low neck.
Or. Woodward says that while Washing
ton may have weather that is very friv-
olous, the death rate from pneumonia

Mexico. if not In Europe, had the party
that approved votes for women in its
national platform in 1912 actually had the
political assistance Of a million or two
needless woman suffragists. without
grave consideration of this question from
a countrywide viewpoint?
No one has right" to vote that
conflicts with the interests Of this coun-
try as whole. Plunging the sort OF
women into politics who are most eager
TO get there. and then asking all the
women to check or cancel such votes. Is
an unnecessary creation of a burden on
every woman because some women want
the rights" of men. This rights"
question recurs constantly. We believe.

advertise it. no matter how essentially
false in principle. Woman's real rights.

ton and consideration for her sex,
which she gets more uniformly the far
Their she remains away from politics.
Taxation and Representation.
Then. too. We often wonder why the
taxation" argument is presented so re-
peatedly when 1t was long since admit
ted by suffragists themselves to be out
Of date and fallacious. No one but the
sunragists ever commended that taxa
ton without vote is tyranny, and cor
porations. estates. foreigners. and min
ors are taxed without the vote. just as
much as women. because they derive an
equal share Of the governmental protec-
ton for which taxes are paid. Not one
OF our corporations can 60 into any for
etgn country and do business or own
property without paying taxes OF some
sort-and yet its claim to a right to vote
for the officials Of that government would
be ludicrous.
Again. only one-eighth Of the taxes are
paid by women. and how can the men.
who pay the seven-eighths. discriminate
against the interests of the women with
out also raising their own taxes? Is not
taxpayers chief concern the greatest
property protection for the least posi-
Bile tax cost? And when you consider
that Pennsylvania is the only State in
the Union out of debt. although its prop

then compare it with conditions in Colo

the highest per capita tax in the coun-

women lie"

I'VE see that In the last three years
seventy-siN men and boys and sixty
seven girls and young women hsve died

would seem to show that the men wore
