BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, Sept. $40 matter
what the outcome of the November
elections, the present congress has
an ambitious program ahead when it
reconvenes in December, much Of

Leaders here agreed that the winter

ton the dominating feature. Before
the strike emergency arose, congress
had created a joint committee to
study transportation problems, includ-
ing the advisability Of ownership of
public utilities. The committee had
already set November Goth as the
date for the first meeting.

NOT ENOUGH WHEAT
MADE 70 SUPPLY
HOME CONSUMPTION
By AssocfAr TED PRESS.


Washington, Sept. S.-The heavy
damage to the country's cereal crops
during August caused the loss of mill
lions of bushels in prospective produc-
ton, cutting down the outlook of
wheat to below the amount required
for home consumption.
The department of agriculture
monthly forecast estimates the wheat
crop at six hundred and eleven mil
lion bushels. Hay and tobacco crops
increased during the month, and
these, with rice, make record-breaking
crops. Hay is estimated at eighty-six
million, two hundred thousand tons,
and rice at nearly thirty-three million
bushels.
The drought caused reduction in
corn. The crop is estimated at two
billion seven hundred and ten million
bushels.
Irish potatoes promises to be a
short crop.

Warrington may be jig saw puz-

And the man who is putting the
pats together so as to make the
homes as good as ever, has job on

houses that were moved to make room
for the hangers remain to be re-
stored.
Many of the houses were moved in
sections, and consequently kitchen
would be standing off in the woods,
while the porch and front rooms jour
neyed over the sand hills to another

If the parts of the jig saw puzzle

Longer Needed

Local parties interested have re-

Since soon after the European war.

bills, notes, deeds and various other
instruments have been required to
bear a documentary stamp, the de-
nomination depending upon the value
of the document. Besides the ex-
pense, the securing of the stamps and
the attaching and cancelling of them
in accordance with the law was q
considerable amount of trouble and
the busy business man will be glad
that he is no longer to be bothered
with this detail.

the company, advising him that the
new law was in effect and to discon-

Atlantic, City, Sept. S.-Triumph

little while" was predicted by Presi-
dent Wilson in his speech before the
annual convention of the National
American Woman Suffrage Associa-
ito today.
II have come here to fight with
you," the president declared, while
the women cheered.
DR.. Anna Howard Shaw, honorary
president of thasassociation, with the
president still present, said:
eve have waited long enough for
the vote. We want it now. I want
it to come during your adninistra-
tom
Mr.. Wilson did not speak of the
method by which he would bring suf-
frage, but said: eve shall not quar-
rel in the long run as to the method.
Women, in their speeches, also failed
TO mention the question of method
In his speech, President Wilson did
not mention his previously expressed
belief that suffrage should come
through action by the states. He de-
clared that in early times only the
lawyer knew enough to run the ma
ton, but since the Civil War, the
country has been faced more and
more by social question until the wo-
men have more and more taken an
interest in public affairs.

eral hours of discussion by the board
of many plans which were submitted
for adoption. The matter was brought
up at the last meeting of the board,
but it was decided to collect suffi-
cient data so that the Lewiston could
be based on population and the facili-
ties in the schools.
The collection of the data was
placed in the hands of Superintendent
Edwards, who submitted his report to
the board last night. The original
plan provided for north and south
line along Palafox street. This plan
met with opposition on the grounds
that it would be too inconvenient for
some of the students.

amended budget ordinance goes
through, pay fifty dollars additional.

$3.50 annually.
Tipping Clubs Doubled.
Service clubs, officially designated
as tippling shops, now taxed at $500
each, are called upon, under the new
arrangement, to pay 1000.
Taxes on auto trucks are made at
$40, this being new line of taxed
vehicles, while slight increase is
made for autos, whether for hire or
private use
A slight change is made in the tax
alton of insurance companies, but
there is no increase noted. The new
amendment simply merges a number
of different lines under one tax.
The meeting, when this measure
comes up for final passage, will prob
ably be breezy one, because
strong protest is expected when the
several increases are generally made
known.
