II Is Significant of
Early Triumph.
HUNDREDS EXPECTED
AT CONVENTION
Call Is Issued for Big Delega.
lions to December Meeting
In Washington.

Washington, Oct. 12.-The Official
call for the forty-seventh annual con-
yention of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association. issued to-
day, lays emphasis on the progress OF
the cause, the great campaigns now
drawing TO close and the victorious
efforts being made or to be made. The
convention will meet here December IL
to 10 and is expected to draw big dele
cations, especially from the states
which will vote on suffrage this fall.
an the long years of work for equal
suffrage no year has been so crowded
with self-sscrifcing labor for the cause
as this, and no year so significant OF
the early ultimate triumph Of woman
suffrage" says the call.
AS we issue this call four great
campaigns for equal suffrage are in
progress in four Eastern states Thou
sands of women are working indefatig-
ably with voice and pen and tens OF
thousands are contributing in time and
money to win political freedom for
women IN tneSe states. Otner stdtcs
are rapidly preparing for active cam
pagns in 1916. At the same time the
national association is putting forth
the strongest effort TO win nation wide
equal suffrage through the passage Of
its historic national amendment TO the
Constitution Of the United States.
1--WE shall come together at this, our
forty-seventh annual convention, larger
in numbers, more united in spirit and
effort and more assured of early sue
cess for nationwide suffrage than ever
before. We urge our affiliated mem
Der associations to send full delega-
tons to the convention, that we may
learn from each others experiences,
be inspired by the courage, sympathy
and counsel of fellow workers and that
our mutual plans and work may be
guided by conclusions reached in full
and free conference as TO their wisdom
and efficiency
THE National American Woman Suf-
frage Association is democratic body,
governed by the vote of the representa-
tives Of all Of It's affiliated associations.
At its annual convention the work OF
the last year will be fully reported,

an official Of the department admitted
to-day. "but there Is no help for it. We
have had to make a thorough overhaul
of the whole army system, and despite
our best efforts the estimate cannot be
completed before Secretary Garrison
returns next Monday"
The Secretary has not divulged the
nature Of the changes he expects to
make. He decided on a policy Of strict
secrecy because he believed a piece

tions would give false impression OF
the plan as a whole.
IL is known, however. that Mr.. Gar
rison wants an army organization ca

impossible with the present army. To
make il more elastic he will ask Con-
gress to provide reserve Of trained

hind the smallest Of the European bel
ligerents in this arm to-day. Con-
servative estimates of the amount Mr..
Garrison will ask this year place it at
$1,000 900.
Heavy artillery FOR the mobile army
is another known feature of the Secre-
tary's programme. At present the largesr
field piece in use carries 6-inch pro-
jectile, and most of the guns are
smaller. The Bureau of Ordnance is
perfecting plans for huge rifles and
howitzers to be mounted on railway
fiat cars. Their principal use, ac-
cording to strategists, will be 10 pro-
vide a secondary line of defence for
the coasts.
While Secretary Daniels's plans are
much further advanced than those of
the War Department and have been
approved in the main by President
Wilson, it was learned to-day that the
finishing touches have not been giver
them. Two recent events have delayed
the Secretary-the naval war game anc
the return from Europe Of Naval Con
structor Lewis b. Mcbride, who has
been studying the work of the variou;
navies in the present war.
Captain Mcbride spent some time In
London, where he familiarized himself
with some Of the measures used by the
British against submarine attacks, and
his reports to Secretary Daniels have
furnished valuable hints for the build
ing programme.
The success of the attacking feet In
the recent war game demonstrated the
necessity for fast scout ships. This
problem will be discussed at the Naval
War College, at Newport, this week,
and Secretary Daniels hopes the DELHI

in moulding his programme. The Sec
rotary is already convinced of the need

CANAL SLIDE BLOCKS ORE
Upsets Schwartz's Plans for Obtaining
Gillian Product.
IBy Telegraph to The rnbun. J

Bethlehem, Penn, Oct. l2.-The clos
ing of the Panama Canal for an in
definite time is likely to cause consld-
cradle delay in the plans Of Charles
VI. Schwab for obtaining Gillian ore
for the blast furnaces at Bethlehem.
Before the slide the Bethlehem Chill
Company had landed two cargoes OF
Chilisn ore at the new docks which the
Lehigh Valley Railroad is constructing
for the handling Of this business at
Bayonne. These docks, now 300 feet
long. are about half finished.
While the Chilean deposit IL said 20
be the richest known, IL Is stated that
IL will not pay to ship the ore sround
Cape Horn, and that transportation OF
this ore must cease until the canal has
been reopcncd. It Is understood that
mining will not be interrupted, the
plan being TO store the ore until II
can be sent through the canal.

THOMPSON SILENT ON BOOM
= FOR PRESIDENT

. Mayor Thompson won't discuss the
presidential boom his California adj
mirers are making for him. He is so
busy seeking relief for EastIand sur
>viVoTs and vengeance for EastIand
dead that he will not talk about him
self.
1t is said the boom has somewhat
surprised him. Mayor Sebastian
sprung it in Los Angeles and many
western Republicans took it up with
a whOOp. His CleaTcut stand for JUS
tice to labor in the car strike arbi-
tratiOn as chairman of the arbitra-
ton board has had much to do with
the enthusiasm of his boosters.
The mayor will be the principal
speaker at the German-American Re
publican clubs rally at Brands park,
Aug. %. Some believe he will indi-
cate his course that day. He is known
to favor national embargo on the
export of arms and ammunition 70

and carrying charges has advanced.
Who is paying? The. employers aren't
taking less profit; they are paying
lower wages and the girls, morgan
lied, have to submit. Is it fair?
There is a great deal said about
welfare work here. Our organization
doesn't object to welfare work, but
not as it is conducted in Chicago. We
want it under the control of board
of sanitation, not as charity or to
take the place of living wages.
'In one factory in which l worked
they especially prided themselves on
the sunshiny surroundings, and pub
lie spirited ladies would be shown
through and would exclaim how
much beautiful sunshine the workers
had, but there isn't any sunshine in
the pay envelopes of the workers. 1t
is merely cheap advertising for the
manufacturers Their plant is built
where rent is cheap and there are no
distractions and God doesn't charge
them for the sunshine"
"DO YOU think you will get as good
conditions here as in New York" l
asked Miss COIN.

have our organization complete we
will, and we are making good strides.

to business interests to decide wheth-
er workers were entitled to advance
in wage because Of increased living
conditions. The mayor appointed that
committee because 10000 workers
had met in a hall to discuss their
grievance and call a strike and the
mayor understood the workers meant

undesirable in any city. That COM
