PRESIDENT MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR CONGRESS SESSION
Continued from Page one)

today that the attitude of the govern
 ment toward submarine warfare laid down in the note following the sinking of the channel steamer Sussex, and in previous communications, will be followed strictly and the state department will continue to press for American rights ir connection with the allied blockade and mail censorship.
 If a satisfactory arrangement can be made regarding the Mexican border, it is believed that the United States troops in Mexico will be withdrawn soon, all though strong force will be kept along the border. On domestic questions. MT. Wilson has told his friends that as soon as Con- gress convenes he will press for the remainder of the legislative programme already outlined. He has begun the preparation of his message to Congress.
 Because of the probability that the next House will be republican, he will seek | to get through as much general legisla- ton as possible during the short session | ending March 4.
 NO CHANGES DESIRED | The President Is said to desire no gen. l eral changes in the personnel of his ad- ministration. It was stated definitely to- l day that no cabinet officers will be asked ! to resign, either now or next March, | although it is possible that one or more
 may wish to retire for personal or busi-
 ness reasons. Among those who have
 been reported as considering resigning | have been Attorney General Gregory, Sec | retary Redfield. Secretary Baker. Secre-
 tary Daniels and Secretary McAdoo. l Vance Mccormick, national committee | man, and Senator Walsh, of Montana,
 who have had charge of the western
 democratic headquarters at Chicago in ! the campaign, are understood to have l iYnnressed the President particularly. ana | it was said today to be more than likely
 that in case there should be vacancies
 in the cabinet, or in other important posts, both of them will be asked to join l the administration. Harry A. Garfield.
 president of Williams college, and son i of former President James A.. Garfield, also is said to be looked upon as being ! of cabinet calibre.
 1 The President will catch up with his | official business as quickly as possible, | and then may take a brief rest at some
 winter resort before Congress convenes. l In order to devote himself entirely to l official work he will see as few callers 1 as possible within the next few days, | and probably will not hold a cabinet
 meeting tomorrow. Instead. he expects l to call cabinet members III separately
 and go over their work with them | Telegrams and letters of congratulation continued to arrive at the White House l in large numbers today. They are be- | ing sorted out and as soon a. possible | all will be acknowledged. None has been ! received so far from Charles E. Hughes, l the republican candidate
 | Thursday night people in Washington 1 plan to give homecoming celebra- 1 ton in honor of the President, fea-
 ture of which will be a serenade outside l the White House.

Brief History of Suffrage
Determinations.

The first great book of Suffrage
was written as early as 1887 by a
French Philosopher and mathema-
tician, Condorcit, vi 0 SAID;
Either no individual member OF
the human race has any rights or
else all have the same"
The Suffrage question was first
presented to an organization in the
United States in 1848 when Eliza
beth Cady Stanton introduced the
the memorabl. Ninth Resolution
at the famous Seneca Falls meet
ing, This resolution asked for
the ballot for women, because,
the ballot was the right Drotec-
tive Of all rights"
In the early days there wer
two Suffrage organizations. Th"
National, and the American, under
the leadership, of Susan B. An
thony and Lucy Stone.
Later these two united under
the name Of The National Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage Association.
Thoro ra now organizations in
every state. The Louisiana State
Woman Suffrage Association is
affiliated with the National-Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage Association.
The Equal Suffrage Club of Nat
is a branch of the Louis
lana Woman Suffrage organiza
ton.
