PRESIDENT TO VOTE FOR WOMAN
SUFFRAGE

President Wilson has announced that he
will vote for woman suffrage, stating that
he has reached the decision after long
hesitation and deliberation. The follow
ing is his statement:
Il intend to vote for woman suffrage
In New Jersey because [ believe that the
time has come to extend that privilege and
responsibility to the women of the state;
but [ shall vote, not as the leader of nv
party in the nation, but only upon nv
private conviction as a citizen of New
Jersey, called upon by the legislature of
the state to express his conviction at the
polls. [ think that New Jersey will be
greatly benefited by the change.
My position with regard to the way
i'll which this great question should be
handled is well known believe that it
should be settled by the states, and not
by the national government, and that in
no circumstances should it be made a party
question; and my view has grown stronger
at every turn Of the agitation -

CARRANZA RECOGNIZED BY PAN
AMERICAN DIPLOMATS

The recognition of the Carranza faction
decided upon by the Pan-American dip
lomats in conference on October 9. Presi-
dent Wilson has approved their decision
AS soon as the six South American repub-
lies represented have acquiesced, formal
recognition will be accorded by the United
States
The news was received by General Car
rama with great pleasure.
''This news puts an end to all efforts
of our enemies to bring about foreign in
tervention," he said "When peace is
restored and tranquility established
throughout the republic, amnesty will be
granted to all these persons, but not now.
To permit them to return at this time
would be to endure their Vaccinations
within the republic.
News Of the coming recognition is
pleasing, since it will renew and strengthen
the friendly relations between Mexico and
other nations.
The dealings of the United States with
Carranza have been far from satisfactory.
1t was he who scorned and criticized the
Pan-American intervention, and it was he
who refused to attend a conference of
Mexican leaders He has always claimed
that the internal affairs of Mexico were
none of our business And yet this very
fact may prove that he is not weak man
who can be handled. 1t will take a man
of courage and iron will to bring order
ouf Of chaos in Mexico Let us hope for
the best, at any rate.

GENERAL GOTHALS RESUMES CON
troll OF CANAL ZONE

Owing to serious conditions in the Pan
anna Canal, Major General George W.
Goethals has withdrawn his resignation as
governor Of the Panama Canal He re
turned to his old post Of duty on October
6, after a vacation in the United States,
and has declared his intention of remain
ing until conditions will permit of his de-
parture.
The canal will remain closed until all
danger Of serious slides in the Gaillard cut
is passed
1t is estimated that there are probably
100000 cubic yards of earth in motion,
which is sliding into the cut faster than
it can be dredged out; and engineers have
little hope Of opening the waterway much
before the first of the year.
Colonel Gaillard, shortly before his final
illness, is said to have stated his utter op-<
position to turning the water into the
canal until the excavation had been com
pleted by dry cutting, and that he doubted
the efficacy of finishing the work by dredg-
ing. His judgment, however was over
ruled He had spent seven years of labor
on the cut, and deeply felt the veto Of his
plans The developments of the past two
weeks have emphasized the force of his
contention

"AMERICA FIRST"

President Wilson, in a speech before
the Daughters of the American Revolution,
on October II, sounded slogan which
concerns the very foundation principles of
American liberty and which may play a
prominent part in the coming political
contest in this country
els it America first, or is it not" he
asked. 81 am in a hurry for an oppor-
tunity to have this lineup Let those who
are for America first and all the time be
placed on one side, and those for any one
else be placed on the other side.
"Some Of the best stuff in America is
in the men who are naturalized citizens
of the United States [ would not be
afraid, upon the test of America first, to
take a census of all Of the foreign born
citizens Of the United States, for I know
that the vast majority of them came here
because they believed in America
''They can say that they have bought
this privilege with a great price. They
have left their homes; they have left
their kindred; they have broken all the
nearest and dearest ties of human life in
order to come to a new land, take a new
rootage, begin a new life, and so, by self
sacrifice, express their confidence in new
principle.
"We should keep out of the European
quarrel. America has promised the world
to pursue a course grounded on justice.
We are not trying to keep out of trouble !;
we are trying to maintain the foundations
upon which peace must be built. America
must preserve the cause Of humanity y r.

PRESIDENT ENDORSES PREPARED
NESS" FOR DEFENSE

For weeks, Washington correspondents
have been telegraphing reports throughout
the country purporting to represent the
presidents policy on preparedness
Some time ago the president issued or
ders to the army and navy departments
for them to submit plans for better de-
fenses, and it was later reported that these
expert recommendations would be sub
jected to radical revision. President
Wilson, however, has now definitely stated
his policy in these words:
II think the whole nation is convinced
that we ought to be prepared, not for war,
but for Defense and very adequately pre-
pared.
Secretary Of War Garrison has sub
mitted his proposed program for strength
ening the army, to the president for con-
sideration. The plan calls for the follow
ing provisions:
"A standing army Of 100000 men.
GA trained reserve army eventually Of
10000 men.
"a continental or irregular volunteer
army Of 100000, trained in six months ;
instruction course.
GA reorganized national guard Of $780,
OOO under federal supervision and pay.
E'The doubling of the field artillery and
ammunition equipment, and an expendi-
ture of more than $1,OO0,O0O on aero
planes :

1t is claimed that the nation now ex-
pends $1O0000,000 a year in maintaining
an army of 10000 men, while under the
Garrison plan, the country could have at
it's disposal nearly 100000 trained men,
at an annual expense Of $300,000,00O

pleted a poll of the members of congress,

powers, the refusal of Greece to join the
quadruple entente, and Roumania s neu-
trality, together with the sluggishness and
inaction Of Italy, leaves only Serbia, and
the allied troops landed at Salonika to
oppose the sweep of German forces to
Constantinople. This once accomplished
means the overthrow of results Of long,
arduous months Of terrible fighting in the
Dardanelles.
Russia is spoken of only in terms of
deepest dependency, and the prospect Of
her relief by way Of the Dardanelles seems
exceedingly remote.
TO add to the dark picture, the western
assault, to which the allies had pinned
their hopes, has failed to accomplish the
decisive results hoped for, and while they
are more than holding their own on this
front, the Germans remain strongly en-
trenched in France and Belgium, while
the Balkan invasion continues unchecked
A military critic has this week said:
There is no question that London and
Paris are gravely disturbed over the Bal
kan developments 1t is as if the con-
tanning WALL built at such tremendous cost
and sacrifice of life around the turbulent
floods of the central empires, had suddenly
given way at it's weakest point. Checked
in France and Flanders held back in
Italy, the tidal flow in Russia, while
serious, did not greatly alarm. The great
absorbent power Of the far-spread Slav

months war, she was not prepared for so
prolonged a struggle.
"She strove hard,'' he declares, to
meet the demands for ammunition, but
she possesses neither the industrial back
ground, the skilled hands, nor the indus
trial mobility to support her army ade-
quately She must depend on outside
help, and has to buy from Japan, the
United States, or elsewhere. Thus the
problem becomes largely financial.
1t should be remembered that the
Russian ruble has deprecated 40 per
cent that Russia raises nothing by the
sale Of spirits, and scarcely anything by
her tariff on imports, and she also has
greater difficulty in borrowing in America.
''For the time being, she continues to
hold her own. Soldiers wages and army
bills are paid with admirable punctuality,
and there is feeling that all supplies will
be easily obtained if once the Dardanelles
are taken. But those who know the true
inWardnesS OF the situation know how
much financial difficulty stands in the way
Of Russia making up lost ground and en-
tering again upon vigorous offensive.
"There was dreadful carnage in the
Russo-Japanese war, but everything in
this was has been on scale five times as
large Enormous numbers Of young men
who never expected to serve, and whose
parents believed they were immune, now
are being trained The act Of calling
them out synchronized with Emperor
Nicholas assumption Of command, and was
in way further example of Russia s
whole-heartedness and determination to
cast everything on the altar of the
nation"

BRAKES SET BY WALL STREET
BANKERS

Stock exchange members in Wall street
have taken action to curb the nationwide
gambling in so-called war stocks, which
was running riot with an inflated market.
Many exchange houses have notified
clients that they would have to double
margins on war specialties. The chief
speculative stock, which, with few excep-
tions, have been carried on 20-point mar
gin, will not be on 4O-point margin, until

Field Marshal Won Hindenburg steadily
continues his determined efforts to take
Dvinsk. The Russians are offering a strong
resistance, and his progress is slow.
A field railway has been laid by him for

the British point of view.
Experts are reported as unanimously of
the opinion that only one remedy will be
left when the proceeds Of the $5OOOOO,OOO
loan shall have been spent, and that is the
substitution Of the American dollar as the
standard of the world s finance, at least
during the period of the war.

simultaneously with the departure Of
the diplomatic representatives of the allied
powers from Sofia, an Austro- German
army, estimated at from $4,000 to 100000
men, and with an enormous weight Of
heavy artillery, launched an invasion OF
Serbia on October 7, at three points, cross
ing the Danube and Save rivers on the
north, and the Drina on the west.
The immediate aim of these armies was
to seize the Belgrade -Nish-Salonika rail
road as the essential line Of supply for the
Serbian armies.
At Belgrade, the former capital of Ser
bia. the Austro- Germans encountered des-
perate resistance, and "for two days a
terrible battle with bayOnets ragged in
the streets The Serbians were pushed
back step by step, and finally were com
PEELED, on October 10, to surrender the
city.
Three-quarters of the city was destroyed
by Austro- German shells hurled against
it.
From Belgrade, the invaders are push
ing steadily forward into Serbia, while
Bulgarian troops have attacked her eastern
frontier, Serbia having officially declared
war against Bulgaria on October g. The
Bulgarians are striking at both Serbian
governmental headquarters and the allies
linz of communication
Considerable forces Of French and Brit
ish troops, lately landed at Salonika, and
Immediately hurried northward over the
railway to Nish, are cooperating with the
Serbians in an effort to repel the invasion.
The French premier, addressing the
chamber Of deputies in Paris on October
II, said that Russian troops would soon
be fighting alongside French and British
troops in the Balkans
Serbia s most effective defense against
the invasion is her lack of roads and her
almost impossible mountain barriers
There is but one road by way Of Nish to
the Bulgarian border.

Bulgaria Issues Manifesto

The Bulgarian government has issued
manifesto, reading as follows:
"The central powers have promised us
parts Of Serbia, creating an Austro-Bul-
garian border line, which is absolutely
necessary for Bulgaria s independence Of
the Serbians.
1--WE do not believe in the promises of
the quadruple entente. Italy, one of the
allies, treacherously broke her treaty Of
thirty three years. We believe in Ger
many, who is fighting the whole world to
fulfill her treaty with Austria
Bulgaria must fight at the victor s
side The Germans and tro-Hungar-
ians are victorious on all fronts Russia
soon will have collapsed entirely. Then
will come the turn Of France, Italy, and
Serbia. Bulgaria would commit suicide if
she did not fight on the side Of the central
powers, which offer the only possibility of
realizing her desire for the union Of all
Bulgarian peoples.
The manifesto further declares that
Russia is fighting for Constantinople and
the Dardanelles, Great Britain to break
down Germany's competition, France to
secure AlSace-Lorraine, and other allies
for the pillage and robbery Of foreign
countries 1t declares, on the other hand,
that the central powers are fighting to
defend property and assure peaceful pro
gress.
