MISS RANKIN LAYS
CONGRESS PLANS
First Woman to Win House
Seat Will Make Social
Welfare Her Work
TRv telegraph 10 The Tribune. ]

Missoula, Mont, Nov. 10.-Miss
Jeanette Rankin, whose election 70
Congress is assured, views the ap-
proach of that new career with the
utmost equanimity. That is habit
she has. In the days when she ac-
companied her father on trips to his
lumber camps the gusto with which
the occasional meals she cooked were
received by the crews of fifty or sixty
men aroused not the slightest per-
ceptible conceit.
She took it as matter of course
that she could cook and that men
should like her cooking. Although a
glow of inner pride warns her voice
in speaking Of her election, she seems
to take it rather as a matter OF course.
Politicians give her no qualms.
A Veteran in the Game
NO." she said, "I'm not nervous
about going to Congress. I've been
working politicians and for political
matters so long that feel I'm vet
eran in the game.
"Of course III make speeches. I've
been making them for the last eight
wears for suffrage and for prohibition
and for myself. Social welfare legisla-
ton is my chief concern, and will be.

Miss Rankin is thirty-fve years old,
makes her own hats and gowns, is
wrapped up in children, has made
stump speeches all over the United
States and in New Zealand, and has
her own opinions on the tariff. She
was born on a ranch near Missoula,
and since she was graduated from the
University of Montana here has been
busy with teaching, social service work
and campaigning.

FORD GOES TO RESCUE

ra, r,I,rr.ph TO IN. Tribune


Detroit, Nov. l0.-The breweries Of
Michigan may some day be turning out
fuel to run Ford automobiles. After
May /, 1918, the state will be boosted
en- masse upon the water wagon. Hence
the dilemma OF owners of the sixty-two
breweries in the state.
Enter Henry Ford. The auto man
suggests that the breweries simply con-
tinue to manufacture alcohol, the only
difference being that the alcohol would
be consumed by motor cars rather than
by the owners Of motor cars. On Sat-
urday Ford will meet the brewers and
unfold the scheme.

WILSON LEADS IN
NEW HAMPSHIRE
Recount of Vote Likely To
Be Demanded by
Republicans

Concord, N. H., Nov. 10.-Following
message from National Chairman
Wilcox late tonight, the Republican
state committee announced that it
was prepared to demand a recount Of
the 10000 ballots of this state in the
hope Of overturning the present mar
row Democratic lead
All the preliminary steps have been
taken, and there is nothing that can
be done further at present, save to ac-
cumulate evidence Of irregularities.
Some of this evidence is already in
hand, Chairman George H. Moses, Of
the advisory board, declared tonight.
Mr.. Moses insisted the present Demo-
cratic lead was only 81 votes, although
the official information is that it Is 70.
Should it develop that four votes
upset the election of Mr.. Wilson a
recount will be sought.
No Law for Recount
The confidence Of the Democrats
that it is all over is illustrated by the
fact that Senator Hollis, after tele-
graphing President Wilson yesterday,
left for q vacation in Nova Scotia.
Robert Jackson, his law partner, and
counsel to the Democratic State Com
mittee, declared there could be no
change in the result.
"The laws of New Hampshire" he
said, do not provide for u recount OF
the vote for Presidential electors. The
Secretary of State opens the ballot
boxes and shows the ballots TO the
Governor and council, who then GER
tify the election Of the electors and
other officials choices. This has al
ways been a perfunctory perform
ance and will be so this year, despite
the closeness, for there is no method
provided for attacking the certiiicstion
in the courts"
Clerks Correct Errors
AS IL HON olduuct the obabc NVNt
will be: Wilson, 1875; Hughes. 1915.
This includes the vote in FIVE pre-
cincts, the returns of which have never
been received officially by the Secre-
tary Of State, but which have been
telephoned in TO both headquarters, in
all probability correctly. II also in
cludes the corrected figures on two
precincts, where the clerks failed to
certify any Wilson vote at all.
For q while to-day it was thought
that the result Of these two errors
would be to give the state to Hughes,
but the clerks in both precincts, When
reached on the long distance telephone,
announced their willingness to certify
the correct figures, and the Secretary
of State announced he would accep.
the corrections.
In one of the precincts, Ward 2 Of
Dover, S.ratford County. clerk Joh3
w. Hogan failed to mention 2s9 Viii
son votes, while in Keene Ward, Of
Cheshire County. clerk Adolph W..
Pressler failed to certify 1875 Wilson

1t is probable that the same entrance
requirements now demanded at Johns

biology-will be established for the

bly, number not more than 400 carefully

clude the foremost medical authorities
in the country. each with three or four
assistants.
The new medical school goes to the
University of Chicago because it has
no such department well established at

The Post Graduate HOSPITAL is estab-

Rush To Be Abandoned

Rush Medical College, one Of the
oldest institutions Of its kind in the
Middle West, which has had an ar
rangement with the university whereby
it might be used in connection with
the medical department. will be aban-
doned and its faculty dissolved. The
entire teaching staff of the new school,
clinical as we'll as laboratory, will be
organized on the full time basis and
professors and assistants will hold
their positions on condition that they
become salaried university officials,
giving up their practices completely.
The only other medical schools in
the country employing the full-time
system of teaching are those at Johns
Hopkins, baltimore, and Washington
University, st. Louis, both of which
institutions have received gifts of over
a million dollars from the General Ed
ucation Board.
The proposed medical school will be
erected on the Midway Plaisance and
will form a part Of the university
plant. Laboratory buildings will be
provided for the instruction of stu
dents in the first and second wears. and
a university hospital. with laboratories
and an t-patient department. will be
included in the plan. A large research
laboratory will be built in connection
with the Presbyterian Hospital. 1t is
estimated that it will be two years be-
fore the school will be ready to receive
students.

RUSH COLLEGE
WILL DISSOLVE
New Institution Will Rank
with Those in Vienna
and Berlin

The establishment of a new medical
department for the University of Chi
cago, which will involve an investment
of $10,O00,0O0, was last night an
nounced by DR.. Abraham Flexner, sec
retary of the General Education Board,
from the funds of which organizationA
in cooperation with the Rockefeller
Foundation, $4,000 900 has been appro-
priated for the project. In addition to
the medicale school the plan calls for
the founding of an adequately equipped
and financed postgraduate school Of
a standing equal to those of Berlin
and Vienna.
To carry out the plan, in addition
to the gift of the General Education
Board and the Rockefeller Foundation,
the University of Chicago will set
aside at least s2,OO0,O0O and will give
a site valued at 100000 and further
sum of $3,30O,OOO will be raised by the
university.
The Presbyterian Hospital of Chi
cago, valued at s3,O00,OO0, will be taken
over by the university for the post
graduate work, thus bringing the total
initial investment up to about $10,-
000. 900.
