President Irigoyen has been quietly
taking precautions to prevent any gov

O.year term. And he did it SO cleverly
that only now is the public beginning
to realize it,
There have been predictions that his

DDS have been openly advocated in
connection with some of the recent

MAY VOTE
ON EQUAL
SUFFRAGE
Constitutional Amendment Cranting'WOmen
Right to Vote May Come to
Vote June l6
BY United rress.

BY United Press.
Oklahoma City, Feb. 6.-Indications
today were that special election
would be held throughout the state on
June l6, this year, on the proposed
constitutional amendment granting wo-
men the vote and inserting the grand
father" clause in the suffrage article
Of the state constitution.
A special election is called for in
the concurrent resolution now under
consideration by the legislature to re-
fer the amendment to the people for
approval or rejection. Senator Tucker
led the fight for the resolution in the
senate and that body already has pass
ed favorably upon it. 1t will come up
I'm the house this week. and Represen-
tative Hodges, who sponsored it among
the representatives, claims the resolu-
ton has sufficient strength to assure
its passage.
The resolution proposes an amend
ment to Article 8 Of the constitution
which strikes out the word male" in
defining qualified electors As amend
ed the section reads: "Qualifed cleo
tors of this state shall be citizens of
the United States, etc." while in the
constitution as it now reads the word
male" precedes the word "citizens.
The grandfather clause, aimed at ne
gro voters, provides the literacy test
for those who would qualify as cleo
tors. AS amended to contain the liter
acy test the constitution would read:
"Qualified electors of this state shall
be citizens fthe United States y
who are able to read or write any sec
tion Of the constitution of this state. "
Soldiers, sailors, national guardsmen
militiamen and veterans of past wars
together with citizens physically dis
abled for reading or writing are ex
empt from the literacy test in qualify
ing as voters.
The state election board is instruct
ed by the resolution to prepare ballots
with the amendment printed thereon
with the following question: "Shal
the proposed amendment be adopted?'
The vote is cast "yes" or mo"

RESIDENCE IN JAPAN

RESiDENCE TN JAZZ NlN
By United Press.
Toxic Jan. 5.-CBy mail)-That
modern terror, the High Cost of Liy-
ing, has today invaded Japn, country
long famed for feeding and clothing its
people on mere pittance. It is esti-
mated in economic circles here that
prices Of all kinds Of goods have in
creased on an average OF 80 per cent
Staple commodities are included in
the general boosting Of prices. Sugar
has increased from 20 to 30 per cent
salmon, 50 to 100 per cent wine, 20
per cent; beans, 80 to 40 per cent;
grain and canned goods, 10 to 20 per
cent; and fuel 20 per cent. The cost
Of wearing apparel has also gone up
Also rice.
The war is made to indirectly shoul-
der the blame for Japan's unusual
conomic situation.
"But conditions differ according TO
the commercial status of each nation,
says the Hochi Shimbun in comment
ing on the II. G. Of LIS conquest OF
Nippon. "Among the causes that un-
derlie the rise in Japan's market pric-
es. are the increased cost of war ma
terials, the prosperity Of foreign trade
and the abundance of money. The
redundancy of gold and the expansion
of convertible notes must also be said
to have significant influence.
