WOMEN DESERVE THE
SUCCESS WON IN NEW YORK

Speaking of the success at the
polls of the woman suffrage question
m New York State, the Christian Sci
ence Monitor says:
Since the entrance of the United
States into the war. the attitude dis
played by the suffrage leaders has
won over thousands of men who for
merly had been in opposition. AL
though they were naturally con-
strained to carry on the campaign
just closed, the winning of the war
was espoused by them as the para
mount issue. They gave their assist
ance heartily and enthusiastically to
the support of the Presidents war
policies. They encouraged volunteer
ing, helped in the draft, did splendid
work for the first and second liberty
loans, assisted in all relief movements,
marched in professions, visited the
encampments, did everything, IN
short, that the nation could expect
of its women, and thus they shattered
p~reconceived opinions, broke down
~prejudices. and won confidence.

HARD TASK FOR INVENTORS
American Public Looks Confidently to
Men of Science for Device to End
Submarine Menace.

The inventor has been
having the time of his life recently,
owing TO the very unwise chatter of
certain worthy gentlemen who ought
to know better, says Electrical World.
The submarine menace is n which is
not lightly to be estimated. The cam
paign against England has been, al
though far from decisive. unpleasantly
successful, and it is with great glad
ness that we learn the active co-opera-
ton of a United States squadron in
endeavoring TO suppress it, but no good
is done by premature announcements
regarding the great things which Yam
kee ingenuity is about to do in the
way Of suppressing the submarines.
We have abiding confidence, born
of long experience, in the resourceful-
ness of the American inventor. In this
case however, he has set before him
for quick solution by far the most
serious task that has ever confronted
the engineering profession. The pub
lie looks blindly for help In some mys-
teriOus way from electrical devices Of
one kind or another. Electricity is still
a name with which TO conjure, so that
the man In the street will swallow,
hook. bait and sinker, almost anything
that is thrown out to him in the way
of an electrical promise.
Now, it is only fair to American en-
gineers to state that a number Of de-
vices tending to the suppression of
submarines have been suggested, inves-

GERMAN MATERIALS
IN Thu UNITED STATES

The Chicago Herald truly says the
United States government should find
and appropriate every bale of cotton.
every pound of cotton, every piece OF
raw material that has been aecumu-
lated by Germany and is now being
held in this country for quick export
the minute the war ends, with the
idea of securing a start in the race for
world trade. 1t should have been

clerw that may lead to these German
caches. Prompt action with regard to
this species of German property n
this country will be particularly eff
cacious as a war measure.
