Action of Prize
Courts in Cases
Of Seized Ships
- AssocrArEp PRESS.

Washington, Sept. 11.-Dispatches
to the state department today outlined
the activities of the British prize
claims committee and the Hamburg
prize court in cases of condemned or
detained ships and cargoes involving
American interests.
Consul General Skinner advised the
department that the American ship
Corning, from Baton Rouge to Malmo,
Sweden, with refined petroleum
naphtha had arrived" at Kirkwall
while the American ships Storaker
and John Blume had sailed. Officials
interpreted the dispatch as indicat-
ing the Corning voluntarily put into
Kirl1wall, to obviate her seizure by
British cruisers as a suspect" The
state department has handled numer-
GUS cases of Standard Oil ships, most
of which have been released upon
representations.
Another cablegram stated the Ham
burg prize court had announced
claims must be filed within two
months in case of the American ship
Pass of Balmaha. The vessel, with
cotton cargo for Great Britain was
overhauled by German submarine
and taken into a prize court to de
termine ownership. Similar notice
was given in the case of the Nor
wegian steamer Trondhjemsford and
Baldwin, the Portuguese steamer
Cysne, the Russian schooner Marie
and part of the cargo of the Norweg-
ian steamer Vega. Three weeks ex-
tention of time was given in the case
of the ship Davanger, nationality un-
known.

more vital question before the Ameri-
can people, will be enforced by the
national government, for the women
know that the law that permit the
sale of intoxicating drinks, is doing
her and hers more harm than any
other one thing in existence and her
happiness, her children's welfare, yea,
the very existence of the whole so
cial order, demands its humiliation,
and she, when vested with the right
to cast ballot, will see to it that it
is wiped out of existence.
Much is being said in the papers
and magazines of what effect the
war now in progress in Europe will
have on this country, and many are
of opinion that this country will have
to prepare to resist foreign invas-
ion; | have no such fear; the coun-
tries engaged in this stupenduous
struggle will have exhausted their re-
sources IN both men and money and
it will take years to recuperate, dur
ing which time they will have been
educated up to the necessity of Civ
ing their women a voice in the man
agement of affairs, and when this
does happen, war with all of its de-
vastating influences will be a thing
of the past, as women are the chief
sufferers and her voice and vote will
never be used, but for uplift and well
fare of the human family.
So as we retrospect the past, as
we consider the present, and as we
look into the future with the eye of
faith, the dawn of an era opens to
our vision, when the implements Of
war are turned into plowshares and
pruning hooks, mankind will realize
the benefits and blessings Of having
his womenkind an active and not a
! silent partner in the affairs of life.

said to her credit, her efforts were
directed to the uplift Of the human
family.
The beginning ofNthe Christian era,
can be set as the date of woman's
emancipation, as from that date she
was invested with a new dignity
that of the mother of the Savior Of
the world, glory and dignity that
she has since maintained, and as His
mission was ore of peace and good
will among men, so woman, ever alert
to do good, has consistently followed
the precepts of her religion and the
churches of all countries and beliefs
have been maintained and kept in
existence through her efforts.
In our own country, from the very
beginning of our national existence
woman has had a marked influence
on the conduct of the affairs OF
state, and has contributed to the won
derful growth and development in
no small measure.

From time immemorial it has been
the custom of man in his efforts to
solve the problems and happenings of
life, to search for woman in the
case, knowing full well the dominat-
ing influence exerted by them.
From the beginning, according to
Biblical account, woman, exercised
her influence on man and caused him
to be partaker with. her in the eat
ing of the forbidden fruit, thus caus-
ing the first transgression.
This has recently been controvert.

plates excavated on the site of the
ancient city of Sumer, archelologisi
have translated these plates, which

date the Biblical version some thou

Thus through the centuries ha:
woman had to bear the ignominy O.

latter, the prohibition measure was
held back in the rules committee
until after the November elections,
and then the two were reported at
the same time, to be voted upon
within less than a month of each
other. Those members who feared
to meet the respective issues played
these two resolutions against each
other as far as possible TO the disad-
vantage of each.
A still further significance from
the suffrage viewpoint attaches to
the vote on the prohibition resolution
because both proposed an amend
ment TO the federal constitution and
both were opposed on the ground
that they interfered with the rights
of the states. The members who used
this argument, however, were for the
most part not the same on the two
occasions. The opposition to prohi-
bition came chiefly from theNnorthern
states, whose spokesman advanced
the states rights argument, while
southern congressman, especially
Representative Saunders of Virginia
Stephens and Quin of Mississippi
Howard and Tribble of Georgia
Johnson of Kentucky, made speeches
for the prohibition amendment il
which they argued that for congress
to submit this question to the state:
was but TO give the states then
rights under the constitution.
Exactly the same argument applies
to the suffrage amendment; yet wher
the prohibition vote is compared witt
the suffrage vote, it appears that Il

Plans are now being laid by suf-
ragists for giving congressman from
the non-suffrage states unique fare
well parties when they leave their
home towns for Washington next
fall. Local suffragists viii gather
for district convention and viii set
forth their views in regard to the
need Of an amendment to the federal
constitution, calling upon their con-
gresham for his support. Whether
he pledges himself to this conven-
ton or not he will be supplied, when
he starts for the National capitol,
with train letter in the form OF
resolutions adopted and signed by
the members Of all the local suffrage
leagues in his district. If these do
cuments fail to convince him of the
demands among his constituents and
if the hundreds Of simultaneous dis
trict conventions timed as farewell
impression for him do no move him,
perhaps the fact that when he ar

of women will converge there for the

tons sent in from each congressional
