WILSON PROMISES
TO ASSIST WOMEN
Tells Leader He Will Take Up
Suffrage Question With
Congress.

WASHINGTON. Dec. Z. - Pres't
Wilson Monday promised 10 take up
the question OF nationwide woman
suffrage with the leaders Of congress.
For the first time since Populations
OF suffra gists have waited upon him
at the white house, the president did
not invade the issue by referring 20
states rights.
In his reply to the two California
women ENJOYS, the president regret
ted that it was too late 10 include
the suffrage in his message to CON
gress Tuesday. Then he added sig
nifcantly that ne would take the
greatest pleasure in comforting in
the most serious way with his col
leagues at the other end of the cap
itol with regard 10 what is the right
thing 10 do concerning this great
matter.
Receives 800 SufTragists.
The president received Miss
Frances Jolliffe and Mrs Sara Bard
Field and their escort Of 800 of dis
tinguished suffragists I'm the east
room Of the white house. His recep-
ton OF the ENJOYS was marked by
his usual suavity OF manner TO which
he seemed to have added an unusual
buoyancy. There was an indication.
however, that he regarded the mis-
sion of the women as a matter Of
grave political Importance. When
the huge fOur-mile petition was part
ly unrolled before him the president
seemed for a moment TO be fasci-
mated by the spectacle. He was Wis
IDLY impressed by this concrete il
lustration Of the tremendous voting
power already in the hands Of the
women Of this country. To Judge by
his demeanor he realized that the
women are determined TO use this
power. if necessary, even against the
administration.
Shows Voting Strength.
In the course Of her impressive ap-
peal Mrs. Field said that the pOlit-
ical party which put through the
federal amendment enfranchising
women would receive the support of
the suffragists. on the other hand
she intimated that the purpose Of
the mission was to impress upon the
administration the fact that 4,OOO,-
600 women would withhold their
votes from a political party which
ignored the enfranchised women's
demand for the ballot
Then with the quizzical smile
which has won converts to the cause
all along the ENJOYS trans-conti-
mental trip. Mrs. Field added:
We do not come in tears and
pleading. sir; we come as the strong
voice of a new political factor. In
the past You have said that this is a

Roots Bugle Call

yLTHILE the invisible government in
w Philadelphia was attempting to agree
on a candidate for the Mayoralty, Elihu
Root, in the New York Constitutional Con-
vention was denouncing the system by
which such things have been done in
his state for 40 years. He did not
denounce the bosses. "Some of them have
been my dearest friends" said he He did
declare in burning words that It is all
wrong that government not authorized by
the people should be continued superior TO
the government authorized by the people.
This bugle call to the conscience of every
high minded citizen of the nation ought not
to be sounded in vain. And the men who
respond to it will breathe freely just as
Root held his head high while he spoke
and Strengthened himself up to the full
stature of free-born American citizen.

Good COuncilmen Needed

DEFORE o'clock tonight every nomina-

filed. Every Gang politician, every ward
magnate with eye open for loot, will have
his papers filed by that time. Can the In
dependents say much?
1t is of vast importance to elect an honest
man Mayor of Philadelphia. But the plans
of the best Mayor in the world cannot be
executed unless he has a Councils which
will hold up his hands and support him in
his fight for Greater Philadelphia. A cor
rupt Councils shaclSle a good Mayor;
an honest councilmanic body can check
corrupt Mayor.
Throughout his term of office Mayor
Blankenburg has been baked by hostile
Councils. Let Philadelphia see to it that
the next Mayor has a Councils that will
work with, not against him.

Winding Our Own Business

TT, is none of Germanys business what the
United States has to say to England. Our
protest TO London must be protest on our
own account, for the protection of American
interests and not for the protection Of Ger
man interests. We have demanded repara-
tion for the wanton destruction of American
lives on the Lusitania and the Arabic not
reparation for the destruction of the vessels
themselves, for that was none of our affair.
1t became our affair only when American
lives were rutheessly sacrificed.
Our concern about the English embargo is
not that it prevents food from reaching
Germany, or that it Injuries Germany in other
ways, but because it is an unwarranted in
reference with American trade and is not to
be tolerated. We cannot and shall not as
sumo the ridiculous role of pulling Berlns
chestnuts out of the fire or securing for Ber-
lin advantages which she could not secure
for herself by the institution of the so-called
submarine blockade.
We protest to Great Britain on our own
account, not at the behest or order of any
other nation.

Bring Them to Their Knees

THERE was an embargo on the shipment
i of war munitions to Mexico when the Will
son Administration came into power It's
annulment supplied Villa, Carranza, Zapata
and all the other bandits with the means to
accomplish their purpose. 1t is proposed now
TO re-establish the embargo, not for moral OF
humanitarian reasons, but as a coercive
measure to compel Carranza to listen to
reason.
Better late than never. Mr.. Lansing, who
is worker and not a mouther, is obviously
giving the President good advice. There can
be no permanent carnival of crime in Mexico
except through the acquiescence of the
United States. Close our ports and borders
to the bandits and they must eventually come
to their knees

COmmunize the Backyards

ALL backyards are divided into three
"A classes. First, there is the backyard
which is overgrown with weeds, breeds mos
quitoes, provides a background for the
wash" and figures largely in the real estate
mans descriptions then there is the back
yard which is really a lawn, is carefully
kept and rejoices the eye; and, finally, there
is the community backyard of which there
are perhaps a score of examples in Phila-
dephia.
Those who have backyards big enough TO
justify cultivation, and who do cultivate are
the happy few. For the rest the backyard
is often a mystery, sometimes an offense
Yet within five minutes walk of City Hall
there is a community backyard which is a
revelation of beauty. Finding the separate
plots too small for any use, the residents in
a whole street pooled their resources, and
their backyard is now a beautiful esplanade,
hedged in gated, pleasant place to read the
paper in the evening afterglow clean and
delightful. In another part of the city
third section a miniature park has grown
where rank weeds grew before
Why not have more of this? OF course, one
must feel sure that "the neighbors' will not
take undue advantages; one must feel rea-
sonably sure of remaining many summers in
the same place The surprising thing is that
no ouse-broker has given his Imagination
