Senator Hollis Explains.

1t remained for Senator Hollis of New
Hampshire. member of the woman suff-
rage committee. to show that the resolu-
ton had not been reported to the Senate
for the reason that the women insisted
upon picketing the White House. Object
ing to the Cummins motion to discharge
the committee and bring the resolution to
the Senate calendar. he said:
This is the trouble. and it might just
as well be stated. There is small but
very active group of woman suffragists
that has acted in such way that some
of US who are ardently in favor of woman
suffrage believe that their actions at this
time should not be encouraged by MAX
ing favorable report. l am one of these"
Senator Hiram Johnson Of California in
sisted that the actions of any group of
women should not influence a committee
in determining whether woman suffrage
should be granted.
The Cummins motion finally went to
the calendar without action.

CRITICISM OF CONGRESS
FOR "HAPHAZARD TAXES"
President of Publishers Association
Says Business Benefited by War
Should Bear Main Burden.

NEW YORK, August 3.-Hopewell L.
Rogers of Chicago. president of the

citation. issued a statement here yes
terday in behalf of his organization,
criticising Congress for the hap
hazard manner in which it has under
taken to finance Americas part in the
war He declared that the business
W hich is getting a special benefit from
the war should pay the greater por-
ton of the taxes.
He advocated the form of taxation

Plea for War Measures, Only.

Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska re-
minded the Iowa senator that the pres
ent session of Congress was called TO
aid in carrying on the war and that only
war measures We're to be taken up.
Il think that this is 4 war measure,
said Senator Cummins, emphati@ally.
Senator Nelson of Minnesota took issue
with this statement, and vigorously
criticised the pickets at the White
House.
While I was in favor of the resolu-
ton and had no objection to its being
reported" said Senator Nelson, I, like
the senator from Nebraska, did not look
upon it as a war measure. But more
than that, as to the women who are
obnoxious in picketing in front of the
White House, thought it good plan to
wait until they abstained from picketing
and showed their fitness and worthfness
for woman suffrage. 1 do not think any
woman who will go to the front of the
White House and parade as those women
have done is fit for suffrage"

SAY CAUSE IS INJURED

That the picketing by the woman's
party members in front of the White
House while the country is at war has
initiated against the suffrage cause. and
has clearly retarded action in Congress
upon the proposed constitutional amend

shown during the debate in the Senate
yesterday:
Senator Cummins of Iowa moved to

woman suffrage from further cons1dera-

not be reported to the Senate.

At THELIBERTY

also permanently. In THE Little

derstood in the United States only
during the dark days of the civil war.
In the role of Sallie Castleton, fair
daughter of the Southland, whose fam
ily had cast it's lot with, the Northern
cause, Miss Gish is most admirable.
The story deals with the return nome
of Lieutenant James Castleton, brother
of Sallie and officer in the Federal
army. He graphically explains to
Sallie and her girl friends the need OF
bandages and hospital supplies IN the
army of the Northland and the girls
Immediately set about preparing these
necessities. .~
Meantime a young Southern sympa'
thizer organizes band of scouts, sur
rounds the Castleton home and takes
prisoner the young lieutenant and his
companion, Major Rushton. By a
clever ruse Sallie liberates the Union
officers, saves the supplies and I'M
dertakes to pierce the Confederate
lines and deliver the. needed supplies
to the North. On her journey she
meets Captain Johnnie of the South.
They are Immediately attracted to one
another and the shipment of supplies
is diverted to the Southern cause.
Thus is found not only father against
son and brother against brother, but
also sister against brother in the
