Bridgeport Ranks Twelfth in List of Cities Showing
 Big Earnings.

Beginning last evening", the Postal Savings Bank at the main post office will be kept open until o'clock each evening to accommodate the increased number of people who now deposit their savings with Uncle Sam in this city.
 Hitherto the bank has closed at 6 o'clock except on Mondays when it re- mained open until o'clock but there were so many people turned away af- ter closing hour that Postmaster Greene gave orders to extend the time. This will give opportunity for people who work until o'clock to deposit their savings.

 Alliance With America.
 "In other words, a suggestion of an alliance without any reservations on Mexico's part would be very welcome to the Mexican government at the present time. I don't think 1t prob able that the Mexican government will make any overtures along these lines; it would want any such suggestion to come originally from this country, ana the officials who approve such a plan realize that it would meet with no small degree of opposition among the 'Gringo hater' class in Mexico, but they felt convinced that this opposi- tion would die out after a short time and that such an agreement would be of incalculable value both to Mex ico and the United States-to Mexico as an insurance against the fate of Belgium, to the United States as a strategical move in the direction of preparedness against future foes. ! Mexico also feels, of course, that such a treaty would prove the founda- ton for a genuine and lasting friend ship between the two governments and would after a short time wipe out forever the inborn feeling of distrust that so many Mexicans, particularly of the lower classes feel toward the United States, and that has been the cause of so much of the friction between the two countries during recent years.
 There are several very serious questions that arise when such an all liance is considered. One is: Might not these very Notifications which 1t is suggested that the United States

has also submitted a plan along the
same lines in many respects, also
Ex-Gov. Hawley's Rural Credit sys-
tenn is aimed to reach the same goal.
However, the plan Of Mr.. Davis would
seem to be the most feasible and
reach the ultimate end quicker.
Under the present law we are only
selling 10000 acres annually and
at this rate it would take several gen
erations to dispose Of the state lands.
Why not amend the constitution and
permit the sale Of these lands within
the next 20 or 80 years loaning the
money to the farmer at say 5 per
cent on the amortization plan in 80
or 40 annual payments. This method
will not only reduce taxes but give
a stimulus to agriculture and immigra-
ton, thus developing the great agri-
cultural of Idaho.

CLUB FEDERATION
NOW IN SESSION
Great Convention Opened In New
York-outIine Of Mrs. Penny.
hackers Address.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press. }
New York. May 25.-A step from
nationalism to internationalism so
that assistance may be rendered in a
worldwide movement by women to
harmonic the nations" after the
close OF the European war, Is recon-
mended to the General Federation Of
women's Clubs by Mrs. Percy v. Pen.
nybacker Of Austin. Texas. in her re.
port, as president. read here today at
the thirteenth biennial convention OF
the Federation.
while we call ourselves the Gen.
eral Federation OF women's Clubs, yet
we may as well face the fact that for
eign clubs are so few and far between
that we are in reality only national. I"
Mrs. Pennybacker said. ION the con.
tinent OF Europe and in other coun.
tries little is known OF the Federation
because there the great woman's
movement is represented by the Ma.
tional Council OF Women all united
In the International Council OF Won.
en-.
Now there is only one way In
which the Federation can be repre-
sented In this international Council
and that is by joining the already
long-established National Council OF
Women in the United States.
Il will confess that there is a deep.
er reason that makes me so eager 10
see this brought TO pass. When the
cruel war is over and peace comes we
shall find In the International Council
an organization that Is ready-ready
for harmonizing the nations which
are now at war-ready for calling
back into wise common eounsei WON.
en- who for so many years were &C
customed TO work side by side.
Il pray that the 100000 women OF
the Federation may have the privilege
OF sitting In the Council and Of help.
