Six thinly clad men were convicted
in police court yesterday morning
charged with stealing ovcrcoats, fol-
lowing the arrival of II above zero

In each case those found guilty of
having stolen overcoats in their pos

Probably the most bold seekers of

with the briskness of the weather was
the man who entered downtown

walked out. He was intercepted by
the storckeeper before he had pro-
crossed far however, and In police
court he too was favored with a sem
tence and fine that equals forty full
days on the street gang.
A fine of $25 for vagrancy was the

CONGRESS TO VOTE
ON SUFFRAGE NOW
Advocates Win Victory in
Fight to Have Federal
Amendment Tested.

WASHINGTON, Dec. li.-Woman
suffrage advocates won partial vic
tory in their long fight to have the
Susan B. Anthony federal amendment
voted on in congress today when the
house judiciary committee reported
the measure for consideration without
recommendation. \ campaign now
will be launched to get a special rule
to bring the amendment before the
house for action probably some time
In January.
Both suffraCists and antisuffragists
expressed satisfaction over today's de-
velopment and are confident of vic
tory on the floor. Tho anxious that
the resolution be reported favorably
the suffragists were pleased because
the committee which generally was
regarded as hopelessly against their
cause went as far as II did. on the
other hand their opponents declare an
opportunity to have the house vote on
the issue inevitably means defeat for
suffrage which will settle the question
nationally for many years.
The vote in favor of reporting the
resolution, IL to S, does not represent
the sentiment of the committee on the
issue. Some of its bitterest enemies
voted favorably, most of them conf
dent of seeing II beaten on the floor
and desirous of quieting charges OF
"smothering" in committee.
one element of the committee
headed by Representative lgoe OF
Missouri sought vainly to prevent ac-
tion.

TEACHERS PROBABLY
WILL GET INCREASE:
Board of Education Favors
Raise, but Not Until the
Next School Year.

According TO a statement made yes
terday afternoon by O. II. Mcclure,
chairman of the teachers committee
of the school board. IN regard TO the
petition the teachers OF Tulsa are
making, asking for a 20 per cent
raise in all salaries. II seems proba-
BILE that the teachers will be given
the raise they ask.
Mr.. Mcclure said that he and other
members OF the board realized the
teachers need for an increase in pay,
and that he favored the proposed in
crease.
Mr.. Mcclure went on to state that
it was not practical for the board to
vote the teachers an increase in pay
until the first of the next school year
on account of the lack of money
voted in the budget for the teachers
payment.
The budget for the last year calls
for $4,000 month to cover the sal
aries of the teachers while budget
of about $4,000 more will be neces-
sary to afford the teachers their
raise.
