EQUAL SUFFRAGE AND SCHOOLS
By Mrs. Frederick q. Murray

In Iowa woman has no vote what
soever on school questions in state
or county elections; even in district
elections, no vote for school direct
ors. 1t is only "for the purpose of
issuing bonds or increasing the tax
levy" that she can vote.
Why women should vote on all
school questions:
/. Men alone vote and determine
school policies. Fathers have little
opportunity TO visit schools. The bur-
den of providing for a household
grows heavier. The pressure of mod
ern business life and of mans activ-
tiles in general is increasing. 1t is
physical impossibility for men to
keep definitely informed on, or keen
ly alive to school issues. OF necessity
the children's schooling is left to the
mothers. Yet, only men may vote
and determine school policies.
2. Women, in close touch with the
school, may not vote. Many house
hold industries have been taken to
the factories. Women have more time
for outside interests. They properly
concern themselves with the schools;
come in contact with school officials,
and take general responsibility for
their children's education. They ac-
quire keen and practical insight in
to the successes and failures of the
school system. Yet, women may not
vote or have direct influence with
school officials.
g. Woman's intuitive judgement
and maternal instincts should find ex-
preston in our school elections. The
mother could be trusted to vote
wisely for school directors. She has
natural cleverness in judging char
acter, and an eye single to the best
interests of her child. Equal suffrage
will help to keep politics" out of the
schools.
4. Teachers should be allowed to
vote. Only five percent of our teach
ers are men. Ninety-five per cent OF
the educators of Iowa are disfranch-
ised-have no voice even in school
| Legislation. The voters--men in the
offices, factories and on the farms
elect school officials and determine
school policies. The teachers are ex-
! pected to carry out these policies.
The ballot would give teachers a
larger influence in the community
They would teach patriotism and civ
les to our boys and girls much more
effectively. With Equal Suffrage,

TEXANS PROFFER
u. s, 40 MAXWELIS

Owners of lao Maxwell cars, living
in and around Ell Paso, have banded
together and have offered their SER
vices and their cars to Gen. Pershing
of the United States army, for use as
he sees fit in any movement OF troops.
The motorists have all signed an
agreement to place their cars at the
disposal of the army. Many of them
have expert knowledge of the roads
through northern Mexico. The cars
are all in shape for instant service.
The securing of the mountains for
villa is logically the function of cav
airy. This would leave the patrol OF
the roads and the movement on the
various Mexican towns along the line
to infantry or to the motoring contin-
gent.
The Maxwell fleet is great enough
to provide swift transportation for
500 men and their marching equip
ment--a force probably large enough
to do anything except engage in
pitched battle with large, hostile ar
my.
That the United States would fight
its next war in motor cars was pre-
dicted some time ago by Walter 4.
Flanders, president of the Maxwell
Company. 1t was this suggestion
which galvanized the Texas Maxwell
owners into concerted action under
the leadership of the Buquor Motor
Company, Ell Paso Maxwell distribu-
tors.
The formal transfer of the cars was
an impressive sight. The owners
gathered at the Buquor garage, filling
the straetg for several blocks The
route to Fort Bliss, where the formal
tender of the cars was made, was
lined with cheering Americans and
scowling Mexicans. The tender was
made to General Pershing by A. p.
Buquor and the motorists were assur-
ed that If conditions made possible
the use of their cars in the suggested
way, the offer would be accepted.
Moving picture operators register
ed the parade and the ceremony for
reproduction all over the country as
an evidence of Texas patriotism and
preparedness.-Adv.
