fitting time to call attention to our
American mountains; and it is also
particularly fitting time for our great
railway lines, not only to emphasize
the fact of the existence of such mar
velous natural resources, but also to
make such provision for their utiliza-
tion that larger and larger numbers
of our peoples will bark back to the
mountains each succeeding year.
I'VE often hear of the efforts being
made for the uplift of the human race.
I cannot help feeling that if every
man. woman and child in America had
had the opportunity during some period
of their life to feel the broadening in
huence of mountain life and scenery
they would be better citizens and more
catholic in their relations to each 9TH

now working for the welfare of man

WALCO7T TELLS LESSON
OF MOUNTAIN RANGES
Smithsonian Secretary Honor Guest
at Meeting of Alpine Club
at Philadelphia.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, January 2-The
value OF the great American mountain
systems as forces for physical and
spiritual uplift were graphically set
forth tonight by Charles D. Walcott,
secretary of the Smithsonian Institu-
tion. Mr.. Walcott, who was accom-
panied by Mrs. Walcott, was the guest
of honor at the annual dinner Of the
Alpine Club of America. He said, in
part:
The mountains are essential factors
OF the continents in connection with
the welfare of the human race To
them we owe the local circulation of
water and air; the possible develop
ment of great mineral resources and
indirectly the wonderful fertility of
our soils. Again, the best physical,
mental and moral development radiates
from the mountain races to invigorate
and stimulate the low1and peoples.
Lesson of the Heights.
Such is the lesson Of the mountains
to geologist, and to one who has
wandered among them for thirty years
seeking answers to problems that came
in his pathway as a boy.
continental constructive and de-
structive forces rear the mountains and
carry them again to the seas. Time
after time on our continent the weight
Of the solid oceanic areas has crowded
in against their margins, forcing them
inward and their surface upward in
folds and unbroken mountain masses.
Long ago, forty millions of years it
may be. a great mountain range was
thus lifted upward in ridges and peaks
extending from the Gulf of Mexico to
Labrador, and tonight we are not far
above its truncated base.
ITO this great Alpine Club of Amer
lea, and to similar organizations
throughout the world, has fallen the
task of stimulating an interest in the
endeavoring to make them realize what
a tremendous spiritual and material
asset they have on the eastern and
western borders of America. Such an
asset was recognized long ago by the
peoples of Europe, and through Alpine
organizations they have lured to their
mountains, not only their own Pc
pies, but those of America and of other
lands
I'm our American mountains we have
grandeur, scenic beauty and health
giving qualities that are unrivaled.
and this year hundreds of thousands
of Americans will gain more or less of
an impressio of what is theirs in
trips to and from the great Pacific
coast expositions. 1t is particularly

Anti-Suffrage Argument.

One statement says in part:
"The method proposed of placing
political burdens upon the women of
this country by constitutional amend
ment alone, without any expression
from the women themselves. is unfair,
undemocratic and un-American.
THE overwhelming majority of wom-
en- do not want the ballot. They pre-
fer to be represented in politics by the
men-their husbands, fathers, brothers
and sons.
Men and women are different by ma
ture and have different functions to

BOTH FRIENDS AND FOES
Of SUFFRAGE AT WORK
Vigorous Lobbies Hope to Dispose
Congress in Passing on Amend.
ment Proposition.

With a test vote promised on the
constitutional amendment for woman
suffrage next week in the House, the
forces working for suffrage and those
working against the cause are mann
tanning as vigorous lobbles as ever
worked on Congress.
Chairman Henry of the House rules
committee has promised that he will
call up the special rule for the con-
sideration of the Mondel1 resolution
to submit the woman suffrage amend
ment to the states for ratification, jan
uary 12, calling for an immediate vote.
Lobby Fund of $53,OOo.
Miss Alice Paul, executive chairman
of the Congressional Union for Woman
Suffrage, the chief suffrage body in
the fight, let 1t be known that the
union has gathered campaign fund
OF more than $4,000 to be used in
pushing the amendment through the
House. The last thousand was sub
scribed only the other day by Mrs. O.
II. P. Belmont, who has been giving
$1,000 a month to the cause for more
than a year.
Mrs. William Kent, wife of the repre-
sentative from California; Mrs. Gibson
Gardner and other prominent suffrag-
lists have been spending hours every
day at the Capitol interviewing mem
bers.
The anti-suffrage forces have been
equally as active, though attracting
less public attention. They have de-
livered to every member of the House
much literature protesting against the
amendment.
