Final Issue of Howard Crimson


 The last issue of the Howard Grim son for the present scholastic year will be published today" said John Inzer Freeman, student publisher. "The pa per has been success this year in every way. The Howard Crimson made it's initial bow to the students of How ard college a little more than year ago. It has already become fixed feature of student life and has had the support of both students and fac ulty.
 "On account of final examinations we have decided to make this weeks issue the last for this term, but we hope to be in position to publish a better paper next year than the one we have published this year. We will enlarge the paper and make number of minor changes that will be appre ciated. The paper this year has been edited by Prof. J. c. Hutto of the de- partment of journalism, but since stu dents have been trained for the work there probably will be 8 student editor- in chief next year"
 Enormous Export Trade
 "Our enormous trade continues it's headlong expansion" says Henry Clews in his financial letter. "The total mer- chandise shipments from the United States in March were valued at $410,- 900, ,000 an inrease of $113,000.O00 over year ago, and about double the March average for the past five years. It is also said to be the largest amount eX ported by any nation in one month March imports reached $214,000,000, or $56, 900, 900 more than a year ago, and 50 per cent above the last five-year average of the United States. These are extraordinary figures; confirming the unprecedented activity of shipping at this port. They show an excess of exports over imports for one month of s196,000000. During the past nine months our exports were nearly S3. 900, 100000. or more than $l,000,000,00 ahead of the same time any other year. Imports for the same period were $1.505, 100000, or $291, 100000 more than a year ago. This left an export bal ance of nearly $1,5oo.0oO,oOo in nine months, and the government report in dicates that this excess may reach s2- 900, 100000 by the end of the fiscal year. Thus far these phenomenal con- ditions, due entirely to the war, have not caused any serious Arrangement of the exchange market, the adjustment of which seems to have been aided by 1 the return of securities and the grant, | ing of credits to foreign nations"

MRS. CASE EXPLAINS
Suffrage Worker Gives Details of
Association Work.

To the Editor State Journal:
Because of so many inquiries for my
understanding of the suffrage work,
have decided to ask you to give room
to the following statement of facts in
your valuable paper:
There is a great misunderstanding
in the minds of some people regarding
the object and work of the National
American Woman Suffrage aSSOcia
ton. They are working for national
suffrage. or the adoption of the Susan
B. Anthony amendment, as proven by
the replies received in response to their
letters to the members CT congress,
enclosing the resolution adopted at
their meeting here in December.
Which letters from each member say
that they will use every honorable
means for the adoption of the
amendment as requested.
They (the NationaD also work for
suffrage in the states, because after
the adoption of the amendment by
congress, it must be ratified by three
fourths of the states before it can be
written into the constitution as part
of it. We, in the twelve states, have
acquired the right of suffrage through
the votes of our men, and we feel to
appreciate that, and now we are ask
ing that every effort be made to carry
the other twenty-four necessary states,
that we may be benefited by the pass
age of this amendment which the Ma
tional has been working for since early
time. All of the states which have
suffrage feel the importance of making
the. very best use of all of the means
that shell bring this end, so for this
reason feel that it is a loss of effort
and money to spend the force and
money of sufragists in duplicate or
CARNATIONS in these twelve states.
1t results in much loss of strength
and labor, for as in New York, there
We're frequently workers from both
societies booked for the same date,
thus causing not only loss of time and
opportunity and making much inhar-
mony among the women of the state.
But as we have so many states where
the women have not the ballot, and
where the men must be won to vote for
the amendment, by popular vote, I'M
less the amendment carries, then by
the legislatures, we feel that it would
bring the hoped for result much soon
err to work in the states where women
have the ballot. We all work for one
result. Equal rights to all. Very
respectfully,
