German Newspapers Greatly
Interested in CONSUMPTION
By ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Berlin, Jan. S.-The German news
papers display much interest in re-
ports of the CONSUMPTION ,risis in
England, but venture no prediction re-
garding its outcome. The Morgan
Post speaks Of the British govern
ment's ''pyrrhic victory" and says the
Agquith cabinet energies from the
struggle greatly weakened
The socialist organ, Vorwaerts, is
disposed to think that CONSUMPTION in
the form proposed viii be carried
through. 1t says that hard strug-
gle is ahead, but if the war lasts
sober calculation viii have to reckon
with the fact that the present active
resistance VIII be overcome.
The Post warns the German leaders
against building great hopes upon
England's internal conflict. 1t points

'What difference does It make

go and tomorrow's cabinet would
come, and would begin where this one

Senate Committee Favors
Permitting Women TO
Cast Ballot
SUFFRAGE SHOULD BE
EXTENDED AT ONCE.
Says Women Are Taxed,
Are Subject to Laws, and
Should Vote
By ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Jan. s.-The Susan B.
Anthony amendment providing for
suffrage was favorably reported to-
day to the senate by the suffrage COM
mittee.
After pointing out that the govern
ment of the United States is one of
delegated powers, the report says:
Manhood suffrage has been from
time to time extended. Every en-
largement of the franchise has been
natural and logical development Of
the principle of popular sovereignty.
We may assume that universal male
suffrage is an established factor in
our system of government.
''In our opinion every argument and
every principle upon which universal
manhood suffrage rests, demands the
extension of its privileges and respon-
sibilities to women. They are subject
with men to a common political des-
tiny. They comprise fifty per cent
of our population. They are citizens
in all other respects. Together with
the men they constitute the people. In
patriotism, intelligence, devotion to
welfare of the government and in ca
pacity for franchise, they are in no
wise inferior to men.
Neither logically nor justly there
fore can unlimited suffrage be recog-
nized as an essential to our republi-
can form Of government and its exis-
tence at the same time be limited to
one-half of the people, arbitrarily Sc
gregated from the other half by the
accident of sex.
"Woman's activities, her perception,
her sacrifices and her misfortunes in
the great conflict now raging over
three continents have for all time dis
posed of the contention that she
should not be armed with the ballot
because she cannot WELD the sword.
She has taken mans place In all the
industrial pursuits of organized So
ciety, she has maintained his govern
ment, manufactured his ammunition,
observed and enforced his laws, OPP
Grated his machines, bound up his
wounds, buried his dead and has been
his comrade in arms upon the firing
line. Man has become conscious Of
her powerful cooperation in war; he
will soon recognize the justice of her
demands to share his burden in public
affairs in times of peace"
The report adds that, inasmuch as
the nation nearly half a century ago
determined to restrict state authority
over the ballot by abolishing the dis
qualification Of color, there is no rea-
son why it should not continue this
policy by abolishing the Disqualified
ton of sex.

London, Jan. S.-In Gallcla and

fierce attacks on the Austrian lines

some points, but subsequently were

there but the cemetery in the out

exceedingly bitter and probably I'M

Indications were that the German
