PR0-W|LSON ARGUMENTS ANSWERED
IN W0MAN'S PARTY COMMUNICATION

Some time ago correspondence was
begun between Mrs. Mabel Davis of
Tonopah, chairman of the Tonopah
branch of the National Woman's
party. and Mrs. Mae B. V. Packer.
Instead of Immediately replying to
Mrs. Davis letter, Mrs. Packer first
had it published. The following cor
respondence ensued. The Tonopah
branch refrained from giving it pub
licity until a reasonable time had
elapsed to give Mrs. Packer privilege
to do SO, as the dates on the letters
will show
Manhattan, New. Sept. II, 1916.

National Womans Party.

EXTREMIST hours of need.
have been told that the Woman's
Party of the United States numbers
four million; the population of the
United States is a hundred million,
which makes the Woman's Party Just

Suppose that man says he will I'M
hesitatingly plunge the country into

made myself responsible for every
man that dies and every boy and man
that comes home helpless sufferer
and cripple from that war.
You say. I'VE in Nevada want to
help do what We can for our Eastern
sisters" To my mind we will help
our Eastern sisters more by casting
ing everything from the point of prin-
ciple not craftsmanship, than by saying,
You vote for the Susan b. Anthony
amendment even IL you do plunge the
country into war and Wen vote for
you" That seems to me a Tammany
practice.

shows conservative dignity and
strength. they'll get the vote from
their own States, where 1t is more
credit to them, and not be compelled
to try to force II through the Congress
of the United States.
And of the two men,-Mr. Wilson
and Mr. Hughes,-Mr. Wilson voted
for suffrage in his own State The

JUBILANT
over CARLIN'S BILL
Measure Aimed to Prevent Aiding
Other Governments from Compel
ing with u. S. Industries.

Employees of the Bureau of Engra wing
and Printing are jubilant over the intro
ductton on Saturday by Representative
Charles c. Carlin. OF Virginia OF q House
bill aimed to prevent government en-
ployes from aiding foreign governments
In the establishment of printing or en-
craving plants that would be directly
competitive with American industry. or
which would directly OF indirectly deprive
American labor of Its employment and
means OF livelihood.
This bill Is based on the so-cafled
Holder resolution, formulated by William
Holder. president OF the International
Order OF Steel and Copper Plate Printers
Of North America The bill forbids any
government erploye TO sid q foreign
government In establishing printing or
engraving plants. and provides that any
government employe who resigns TO as
sist any alien government in such work
shall be ineligible for resppointment in
the Federal service
Mr.. Holder came 10 washington TO urge
the Introduction Of the bill. Before leav-
ing last night. Mr.. Holder took a parting
shot at Joseph T. Ralph. director Of the
bureau. He pointed out that Mr.. Ralph
referred In his annual report TO certain
surpluses that had been made possible
by rigid economies during the year
The economies referred to-" ssid Mr.
Holden, although not specified by Mr.
Ralph. consist In enforced leaves of alb
sence for printers without pay and cur
failing the work Of the plate printers
who are paid by the piece. They were
also made possible because the pay in
cresses authorized by Congress in the
lsls appropriation bill were not put into
effect by the director"

STOCK MARKET NOTES.

Butte 4 Superior was strong around Z,
during the week. This company is max.
ing sensational earnings on account OF
the high price of spelter which is its chief
product. II Is paying them out as It earns
them.
The last extra-dividend was $3.50. We
expect another In the course of the next
few months. In the sense that its un-
usual prosperity is dependent on the war
price for zinc. Butte & Superior can not
be classed as a conservative investment,
but we believe its earnings and distribu-
tions will continue exceptionally large
for some time.
Mercantile Marlne-Earnings OF the
vsrous steamship lines included In this
combination are exceeding the most opti-
mistic expectations. On the first OF the
year various big contracts for transport
ing freight expired. The renewals were
made at from two to three times the old
rates, Earnings for January will exceed
the returns for any month of 1916, The
revenue is SO great that there is enough
to satisfy the most optisimtic expeeta-
tons of all classes of security holders.
We expect that a reorganization arrange
ment will be reached in the next few
weeks, We expect to see both the COM
mon and preferred certificates selling at
much higher prices. Some of the best of
the new buying of Mercantile Marine
has come from exporters who. through

STEEL ACTION TODAY
Director, Of Corporation viii Decide
As to Payment of Dividends on
Its Common Stock.
STEEL ACTION TODAY

New York. Jan. A-Ths possibility oi
a widespread strike by railroad employees
had a depressing effect on the stock
market today. Prices OF the standard
rails declined from one to two points,
not because OF wholesale LIQUIDATION. for
speculation by the public in that group
has been very small, but eecause Of Of
rerings by professional traders who
seized upon news as an excuse to offer
shares. As the demand for the rails had
been comparatively light. the profess
slonals did not experience much opposi-
ton The industrisls sold on in sym
pathy.
The unfavorable Developments in the
railroad world were reflected In the
opening. Prices held firm during the
greater part OF the first hour. but before
the end Of the forenoon. professional Of
ferings resulted in general declines. Much
stress was also laid on the uncertainty
regarding the resumption of dividends
tomorrow by steel corporation directors.
Steel common sold at the lowest price In
weeks The low figures touched by the
rails were also the bottom for several
months. In the last hour there was a
slight rally, due 10 covering Of short
stock put out by the floor traders early
in the session.
The chief topic Of financial interest to-
morrow will be the action Of the United
States Steel Corporation directors on the
common stock dividend.
Most people believe that the dividend
will be resumed but guesses In rate range
from "a OF l per cent for the quarter to
IA per cent Late today there seemed
to be q belief that payments would be
resumed at the rate of 5 per cent
Rumors that the Mexican Petroleum
oil merger deal had collsp psed resulted
in a decline Of about S points in Mexican
Petroleum. Part Of this was recovered
before the close.
Southern Pacific was the strongest of
the rails. Union Pacific was one OF the
weakest. The relative strength Of the
former was undoubtedly due TO the very
favorable statement Of earnings for De-
cember, showing a gross gain Of &, 76t,-
0S and a net increase OF Sl,27O,219. Ex-
pert stausticians figured today that the
road would earn 1-2 per cent on its stock
this fiscal year.
