1.-THE object of this var is to deliver the free
peoples of the world from the menace and
the actual power of a vast military establish
ment controlled by an irresponsible govern
ment which, having secretly planned to dom
mate the world. proceeded to carry the plan
out without regard either to the sacred obli-
cations of treaty or the long established
ternational action and honor; which chose it's
own time for the war; delivered its blow
fercely and suddenly stopped at no barrier
tinent within the tide OF blood-nOt the blood
of soldiers only, but the blood of innocent
women and children also and of the helpless
ed the enemy of four-ffths of the world. :

women. Eleven millions of dollars
worth Of bonds were represented by
the women in the parade, and Of that
six millions has been sold by the suf-
fragists.
Mrs. Charles Stone, chairman Of the
Liberty Loan Committee Of the New
York State Woman Suffrage Party;
Mrs. Learned Hand, chairman of the
committee for the city. and Mrs. Louis
Sade, chairman of the War Service
Committee, led the section, in which
two hundred suffragists, all bondhold-
ers, marched. II was the largest single
division of women in the parade.
The cold and the wind, as well as the
confusion resulting from the postpone
for the small size Of the women's
groups.
Those who did march were a motley
spectacle Of furs and flowing red, white
and blue robes, Red Cross aprons and
mufflers.
Mrs. Courtlandt D. Barnes and Mrs.
John T. Pratt, chairman for the city
and the state of the Women's Liberty
Loan Committee, marched in the first
group Of loan officials, well bundled up
in furs.
The first women after them were a
small but popular delegation Of women
soldiers, in khaki uniform. Led by
Miss Estelle Youngling, a private pro-
NOTED to the csptaincy in the absence
of their lost leaders. the little group
of seven women trudged smartly along,
looking as If they could march all the
way to Berlin without ruffling hair.
They were the only part of the Ameri-
can Womans League for Self Defence
which found the starting place in time
to get into the parade.
The Womens University Club, Bar
nard College girls, the Stage Women's
War Relief Committee, the Motor Corps
of the National League for Women's
Women's Naval Service, Inc, led by
Miss Alice Carpenter, and the Daugh-
tiers of America were among the
women's organizations represented.
They by no means represented the
woman power" of the Liberty Loan
parade, for scattered everywhere
through the line were small groups Of
women, marching, as was proper, with
their own. There were two girls, with
service flags over their hearts, who
led the ranks OF the Bliss company,
and nearly every delegation from the
large business houses had a sprinkilng
of women.
The American woman has not yet

her men away with a smile. but refuse

She wore q service Aag-with two
stars-p,nned across her chest, and
over that was the yellow and white
sash of the Woman Suffrage Party.
The color combination was noticeable
enough, but it was the determination
written large on her countenance
which first attracted attention.
In a surging mass of floats, Boy
Scouts, Columbus and runabouts
carrying hoarse-voiced marshals, she
stood her ground at the corner OF
Washington Square North and Fifth
Avenue, just before the Liberty Loan
parade started. Policemen could not
drive her away nor auto trucks
brighten her from her post
"The Suffragists are forming over on
the next block, madam" ! ventured
thinking the solitary suffragist had
lost her way.

Five minutes later the suffrage dele.

The smile did not fade for several
blocks, and then only when the bursts
of applause for the suffrage delegation
greeted her.
"They better applaud u.s. she whis.
pered again. when the women have
to let their men go, and let them 60

The applause followed the suffrage
delegation all the way up the avenue.
| wondered how much of it was due to
the service flags pinned under the yell
low, which told silent story OF what
war means 10 women, or whether il
was spontaneous admiration for the
fine appearance of the marchers. Suf-
fragists have marched in so many

them TO hold their heads high and

to-day too late for the daily official
tabulation made it certain that the
Boston Federal District has gone be-
yond its minimum allotment Of $780,
100000 In the Liberty Loan campaign.
Official figures, which included only
subscriptions up to Wednesday night,
placed the total at S290,690,00 Mem
bers of the committee expressed the
opinion that to-morrow's report would
show that the district has passed the
total amount subscribed in the first
Liberty Loan, when New Englanders
bought S330,5s5,000 worth of bonds.

More than $4,000 was pledged to
the Liberty Loan yesterday at the
luncheon Of the Rotary Club in the
Hotel McAlpin, which was attended by
about 500 members. This makes a total
Of s275,O00 which Rotarians have sub
scribed to the loan.
Brlgadier General Louis W. Stotes-
bury delivered the principal address at
the gathering, taking as his subject the
motto Of the Rotary Club, "He Profits

He dwelt especially upon the ideal
OF service and what it meant to the
nation, as exemplifed especially in the
CONSUMPTION law.

Clouds of smoke rolled up from its
exhausts and added to its frowning,
fearsome appearance as 1t got under

every conceivable angle, and its crew

The approach and depa ture OF the

clumsy, elaphantine appearance: 1t

that must have made Captain Richard
Haigh. who has spent many months on
the firing line in France, feel right at

An old lady in black silk looked at

burst out, "She may be soft coal
