WAR ACT eT CANADIAN

All High Grade Wheat Elevators
From Fort William to Atlantic
Coast are Com numbered. Esti-
mated at 2o,ooO.0o0 Bushels.

Ottawa. Ont-The Canadian gov
eminent has Communicated all high
grade wheat in elevators from Fort
lantic coast
This action was taken under the
special war act by the Canadian grain
commission. the wheat seized was Of
grades one hard and one, two and
three northern. 1t was the property
of grain shippers and millers That
taken is all that which on Saturday
night was in public elevators at Fort
fort William, Port Arthur. Midland,
THIN, Port McNNhol. Collingwood
Coderich. Kingston. Port Colborne.
Prescott. Quebec, st. John, Montreal
and Halifax
A revised estimate places the
amount at about 20,000,00O bushels A
considerable amount is the property
of American grain dealers.
The grain was taken Saturday night
so that grain exchanges should be af-
fected as little as possible 1t is
Officially stated that the price will be
fairly adjusted and the grain owners
promptly paid by the Canadian gov
eminent. 1t is estimated that there
as still in Canada in the hands of
farmers and dealers west of Fort Will
liam, 150.0O0.000 bushels surplus of
wheat available for export 1t is err
pected that most of this will be taken
in the future for the use of Great
Britain. France and Italy The domes-
tic supply of Russia is more than suf-
ficient to meet the needs of that coun-
try. Had the Dardanelles been forced.
the surplus of Russian wheat would
have made the present action unnec-
essary. While the wheat just taken
was Communicated to fill an order
from the British government for a
large quantity OF wheat. it is under
stood that most of it will be shipped

DR.. Claxton Predicts
Woman Suffrage

In notable address before the
graduating class of Fairmonr
Seminary, one of the leading girls
schools of Washington, D. c., with
students and alumnae present
from almost every state, Philan-
der P. ClaXton, Commissioner of
Education of the United States.
predicted the early dawn of wo-
mans suffrage.
"You might as we'll stand on a
bridge over the Mississippi and
with a whisk broom try to sweep
back the waters as they rush to
the sea-" said DR.. Claxton, "as to
attempt to stem the tide of public
opinion in favor of votes for wo-
men.
when the people of Memphis
hear that the Mississippi has
reached fiood-tide at st. Louis,
they know the flood will reach
them. Just as the floods in riv-
ers are caused from little rivulets
and smaller streams, so is the
Newark post., 1915-05-26

flood of public opinion for wo-
mans suffrage being made up in
the United States. Nothing can
stop it.
"The graduating classes of
1915 have greater obligations and
greater opportunities than any
class ever graduated in this coun-
try, because the war in Europe
has given America her great op-
portunity and unless we take the
leadership in everything we will
be recreant to our duty. The young
women graduated this year will
have a larger opportunity in the
worlds work than any graduated
before. So it behooves the girl
graduates of 1915 to consider
their opportunities and obligations
very seriously, for with the COM
ing of suffrage they are going to
have a great opportunity to help
make laws Of the future and those
laws will be only as just as pub
lie sentiment makes them. You
young women will have as much
to do in the creation of this public
sentiment as your brothers."
DR.. Claxton's vigorous endorse
ment of woman's suffrage has
caused much favorable comment
in the National Capital, especially
on account of the widely repre-
sentative audience before which it
was delivered.
