EQUAL SUFFRAGE
COOK BOOK is OUT
UniqueIdea In Campaigning TO
Aid Women In West Virginia
HEALTHY MEN VOTE RIGHT
Leading Men and Women Are Con-
tributors Telling How to Make All
Good Things for the Table.

Whenever anything new in cam
paigning comes out 1t Is safe to say
it is an equal suffrage idea. One OF
the most unique mediums ever de
vised to sway favor in political
campaign has been enlisted in aid OF
the propaganda favoring the West
Virginia equal suffrage amendment.
/ Being original and new, it is natur-
ally the output of that most unique
and original of campaigners-the suf-
fragists. Briefly, it is a suffrage cook
book.
Its mission, according to its compil-
er. Mrs. L. o. Kleber, of Pennsyl-
vania, is to make men healthful by
serving them suffrage dishes, the best
of all cookery. Healthful men, she
AYERS, are happy men. BEAUTIFULLY
happy men consider things politically
as well as otherwise from the best
and most intelligent viewpoint. SUI.
frage considered from such an angle
will triumph in West Virginia next
November.
Done in blue and yellow, the suf-
frage cook book is a compact vol
ume crammed with valuable recipes.
It's contributors include many of the
most famous men and women in the
country-statesmen novelists, educa'
tors, travellers, actresses, society
women, sociologists and scientists.
Some send previously secret methods
Of connecting toothsome dainties.
Others send pro-suffrage sentiments
calculated to aid the mental diges.

srarsIatin" Appendices
To German Memorandum

The State Department Is at work to-
day translating the appendices to the
German submarine campaign memoran-
dun, which arrived yesterday, and
which will play an important part in
shaping the course of diplomatic nego-
tiations over the submarine and armed
merchantmen controversies.
There were nine appendices. The
Photographic copies of the alleged
british secret orders instructing mer-
chant ship commanders to attack sub
marines were easily understandable,
Dnt some of the appendices were in
German and had to be translated be-
fore they were ready for Secretary
Lansing's consideration.
The State Department probably will
question the British government as to
the authenticity of the alleged British
orders, inasmuch as there Is conflict
between the evidence presented by Ber'
lin and the decree recently promulgated
by tho British admiralty.
Pending action, the State Department
will hold up not only tho Lusitanis
case but the Ancona and Frye cases
all of which were in the final stages o.
settlement when Germany announced
its new submarine campaign.

KENYON WANTS us.
TO RUN LINES HERE

Senator Kenyon Of Iowa. prominent
on the Senate District Committee, has
declared himself In favor OF Govern
ment ownership OF the street railway
lines OF Washington
Senator Kenyon feels that the recent
strike emphasized the need or public
ownership of the street car systems
here. but he favors such ownership for
other reasons also.
II indorse the views expressed by
Senator Norris last evening" said Sem
ator Kenyon. II believe the Govern
ment should take over the street car
lines here. consolidate them. do away
with needless Implications. and thus do
away with congestion. and make the
system here model one,
az am not now discussing the gen.
oral proposition OF public ownership.
but am convinced that with respect TO
the street car system here. Congress
should take expo ditious action toward
Government ownership. and that II
would he n marked Improvement over
the existing situation"
