JOLTED FOR 81 Miles
ON SUFFRAGE MISSION
Virginia Women Show Mettle Seeking
Watson's Support.

A deputation OF Virginia women. MEM
bers OF the Congressional Union for
Woman Suffrage, rode IS miles in an au-
tonobile over rough country roads to ask
Representative Walter A. Watson to vote
for the Federal amendment.
1t was dark when the party reached the
Representatives. home. He had just re-
turned from a hunting triI but with
true Southern hospitality invited them in.
threw more logs on the big wood fire and
then they all discussed the Federal
amendment issue.
While Representative Watson did not
declare himself in favor OF the Federal
suffrage amendment, he said that the
coming. of suffrage was only a question
OF time and that in 1910 no Presidential
candidate would dare oppose It.
Included in the delegation were Miss
Mary Caldwell. Miss Harriet Thomas,
of Petersburg: Mrs. Percy Read and Miss
]. V. Jennings, Of Richmond.
The same spirit that they showed on
this occasion. it was asserted at Congress
sional Union headquarters yesterday. is
being shown in all the work now going
on in all the various States in favor of
Federal suffrage. Numerous State con-
venuons are being held. delegations have
called on members of Congress, and sys-
tematic plans for raising funds to carry
on the work are being made in many

TRADE war not DUE.
F0RLOkG, LONG time
World Struggle Will Not Come Until
Long After Peace Is Declared.

The much.discussed after-the-war COM
mercial competition from Europe will not
likely come for some time after the con-
clusion Of peace, according to an opin-
ion expressed by the Federal Trade Com
mission yesterday, in reviewing foreign
trade conditions.
The commission points out that the
high cost Of materials, increased taxes.
probable higher wages. and the capital
and stocks Of materials necessary to re-
pair the wastages Of war will delay the
full power of European competition until
1t regains its normal state.
Laws to put the American exporter on
a footing with his foreign rival by author
ization of collective foreign selling agen-
cies, are recommended by the commission.
1t Is apparent, the report sets forth.
that this country's organization for ex-
port trade must be strengthened IL Its
manufacturers and producers are to COM
pete on more nearly equal terms In the
worlds commerce
The commission believes that competi-
tion from foreign industrial combinations.
aided by foreign ship lines and foreign
banks, and backed by foreign govern
rnents, may be sharper after the war than
it was before.
The commission further believes that
the advantages to be gained by effective
cooperation in foreign markets need not
entail any sacrifice of the firmly estab-
iished policy Of this country in regard
to the maintenance Of fair competitive
conditions and the prohibition Of monopo-
istic control within the United States.

HOUSEWIVES DECLARE
war ON High PRICES
Alliance to Establish Neighborhood
Markets in School Buildings.

War against high prices has been de-
clared by the Housekeepers' Alliance, un-
der whose auspices a mass meeting OF
Washington housewives will be held next
Friday AFTERNOON at 2 o'clock at the
Theodorus Bailey Myers Mason House,
1906 Twentieth street.
It is planned TO form series OF COM
munity groups of housewives who Will
meet regularly to devise ways OF erect
ing household economies: to obtain the
use of school buildings, for these meet
ings, and to establish neighborhood mar
kets in the schools, the children to de-
liver food supplies to their own families.
Mrs. Flora Mcdonald Thompson, who
will present the plan to the mass meet
ing, has Just returned from New York,
where she conferred with the president
of the Housed ives League Of that city
and made an Extensive study OF methods
now being employed by organized house
wives to combat the high cost Of living
I'VE feel that boycotts on any one
product are ineffective" Mrs. Thompson
said~ First we wish to eliminate waste
Then we wish to teach housewives to
buy by values, not by price alone, and
thus we shall effect an automatic boy
colt on any products which sell for prices
out of proportion to their values.
The platform Of the Housekeeeprs' Al
lance this winter will be to extend to
organized housewives a general fund Of
information which will make them an
economic force that will control markets
in the interest Of the home"

"Great" Scoring G at
Sunnybrook
By SANDY MeNIBLrCK

vr,HE viclssitudes of the Philadelphia
Il open golf championship have finally been
spiked.
After the setting OF many temporary
dates. postponed from the original sched-
led date in August, the event has now
been set for the week of October 15. II
win be held either Tuesday and wednesday,
or wednesday and Thursday, probably the
latter, at Philmont
The date as decided upon and announced
Yesterday was reconsidered when II was
Sound 10 conflict with the match play at
New York for the championship Of the
Professional Golfers Association of the
United States, and with the Pennsylvania
open championship.
The local ought now to attract one Of the
hest fields of Its history, since there is no
reason why II will not pull a comfortable
margin Of the golfers gathered at New
York.
Date to Stand
Those in charge Of the local have gotten
weary of sidetracking IL to make way for
other professional Journeys, and Il is def
nitely stated that the date, above, will
stand no matter how many other Journeys
crop in the same week.
More than sixty pros gothered yesterday
Mt Inwood Country Club, New York, in an
effort to qualify for the United States pro-
feSSlOnhl ChdAlipionohip AlOul intlTODOl-
itan district.
Twelve qualified and incidentally rolled
up parts of $500 for hip pocket padding,
said stuffing being offered as prize money.
Walter Hagen, Bob Macdonald, Gil
Nichols Tom Mcnamara, Macdonald
smith and other famous pros were among
those present.
Speaking of those coming under the
head Of professional golfers, II might not
be at all amiss to mention the fact that
Francis Ouimet, former amateur and open
champion. is still shooting a Ill golf, de-
spite the fact that he is commonly pictured
by his friends as being so weighed down
by the sorrows of being barred from anna
teur competition that he never wants to see
a golf club again.
Ouimet was shifting the piny breezes
at Breton Woods, N. H., yesterday, and in
cIdentally swinging a golf club or two. He
shot 66 over the course, very neat, whilst
picking posies along the course.
Needless to say this score is q record,
and one which will stand the assaults of
time and man. Ouimet was timing the
long puts, SO the story goes. The young
golf hero is evidently stin right on his
game.
