CON VENTION
BODY MEETS TO ADJOURN

TO RE-CONVENE IN JUNE
Committees To Draft Pro-
posed New Constitution
Will Be Appointed By
Pres. Mehaffey.

The Constitutional Convention,
which convened in Little Rock on
the 18th inst, took a recess un.
til the first Monday in July, when
it will reconvene and take up the
work of preparing the new con
stitution. Meanwhile Judge Me
haffey, who was elected presi-
dent, will appoint committees
who will commence their work in
May, working on different sec
tions of the constitution.
Any member of the convention
may submit proposals for the new
constitution to the committee on
reference, and this committee
will submit to the proper com
mittee. The proposals are then
submitted to the committee on
phraseology, and when the draft
for the constitution has been put
together it will be printed and
distributed to all the members
mot later than tfHrty days before
the re-convening of the conven-
tion.
There are three things that
seem to be the main issues, these
being the right of cities and
towns to issue bonds, woman sut
frage and prohibition.
Some of the members want the
constitution to remain as it is,
some only wanted to make a few
changes and others want to re
write the whole thing.

FINANCING THE War

Little Rock, Nov. 29-Within a
few DAYS every citizen OF the
state will become familiar with
the symbol of the War Saving
Stamp, through which the hum
blest in the land may have a real
part to play in the financing of
the great war. Moorehead Wright
of Little Rock is at the head of the
the campaign in Arkansas. The
stamps and certificates will go on
sale about Dec. 3. There are So
and 500 stamps, redeemable in
five years at 4 1-3 per cent inter
est, and % cent thrift stamps,
which may be exchanged for the
stamps of larger denomination.

which is in operation in Great
Britain, will yield two billion dol
lars annually during the war,
The allotment for Arkansas is
100000. A meeting of the
county chairmen was held at the
capitol Tuesday morning at which
d plan for the campaign in the
state was organized.
