special session of the Legislature and
no new Constitution, the Franchise
league has one more iron in the fire.
This is the full suffrage amendment
to the Constitution which was ap-
proved by the last legislature and
which must be approved by the next
legislature and then approved by the
people at an election before it becomes
effective. This amendment was urged
because the women believed it wise
not to place too much faith in the
validity of the constitutional conven-
ton law.
The Franchise league will place
great emphasis on registration of
women to vote at the city elections
this fall. This campaign will De
pushed with great vigor. The women
point out that with many men leaving
for the war front great political re-
sponsibilities will devolve the
women, and that they must be pre-
pared to take up those duties and re-
sponsibilities. There never was a
time. they say, when 1t was more i'm
portant for women to understand and
to undertake the serious duties of
citizenship.

TIMES BUREAU
AT STATE CAPITAL

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 20.-Indi-
ana Democrats will have another new
state chairman very soon. Charles A.
Greenhouse, the present state chairman
has been appointed a member of the
Federal commission that will administer
the national vocational education law,
and the Senate confirmed his appoint
ment yesterday afternoon. Greathouse
was elected state chairman less than a
month ago to succeed Bernard Korbly,
who resigned, and the very next day
after he was elected Greenhouse received
word that President Wilson had de-
cided to give him the Federal appoint
ment, which pays $4,000 a year. The
salary is not a serious object TO Great
house. however, for he is a wealthy
man, owning hundreds of acres OF the
best corn land in Posey county and on
islands in the Wabash river at it's juno
ton with the Ohio.
It is presumed that the duties of his
new position will require Greathouse to
spend most OF his time at Washington
and he could not continue as state
chairman. Besides. 1t is reported that
there was an understanding of some
kind that he would resign the chair
manship in case Of his taking the new
Job.
There is considerable speculation as
TO his successor, but the big finger
seems to be pointing toward Walter S
Chambers of Newcastle, although Cham
bers has said that he would not take
the Craftsmanship. James r. Fleming
OF Portland, who was a candidate for
the place when II was given to Great
house, has decided that he does not
want II, and he so stated to friends in
this city. He says he is going TO stick
to business and try to make a little
money for Jim Fleming.
Others mentioned are Dale ]. Critten-
berger of Anderson; w. H. O'Brien of
Lawrenceburg and possibly one or two
others. but the whole business is up in
the air.
Greathouse has just moved the
Democratic state headquarters to the

That Canada has gained not only
hationhood and consciousness of nat
ional strength from her participa-
ton in the war, but is also aiming at
q western British Empire, second in
size only to Russia and with a range
of climate and a variety of products
to rival the United States, is the
opinion of a writer in By-Water

urging Canadians to study the trade
future of Canada in the West Indies.
The Greater Canada of which he
writes, would include all the British
possessions of the western herni-
sphere.
England is said to regard this for

favor, as a measure of protection to
her outlying possessions in the
scheme of Imperial federation which
is being freely discussed in London.
Canada has earned the right to con-
sideration in any plan affecting the
empire, or her future trade develop

RAILROAD
SITUATION

Although the handling of freight is
showing increased efficiency frora
month to moth, the Railway Age Ga
zette predicts another big car shortage
this fall, due TO the rapid increase of
railway traffic.
The statistics now available demon
strate that the reduction of the nec car
shortage from 14S.627 cars on May l. to
105.l27 on June !, or about 80 per cent,
was due TO increased efficiency in rail-
way operation because they show that
it was accomplished in spite of a large
increase in freight traffic in May" says
the Railway Age Gazette
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1917-07-24

Freight revenues increased 1914 per
cent. in May as compared with April.
The editorial continues. commenting on
this phase: This increase in freight
revenue indicates a corresponding in
crease in the total amount of freight
carried. and is the best possible evidence
of the result being gained from the
work of the railroad war board and its
subcommittee, the commission on car
service.
With railway traffic continuing to
increase at the rate it is. II is evident
that even though the railways and ship
pers use the transportation facilities
available to the best purpose possible.
there probably will be another big car
shortage and acute congestion this fall

.DIO SH|PLOAD OF
ALCOHOLIC DOWN
AUTHORITIES WONDER WHETHER
THERE Is ANY CONNECTION IN
TWO RECENT DISCOVERIES.

About three weeks ago a 25O-gallon cask
of alcohol washed ashore near Galveston,
and was taken in charge by the United
States customs authorities. Two days ago

q similar ca-k Of alcohol which washed
ashore III 4 point nearly go miles south
of where the first cask was discovered.
United States customs authorities Mt
Brownsville today are wondering whether
the two casks of alcohol were from the
same vessel that evidently went down
somewhere III the Gulf Of Mexico. and
whether there was a whole ship load Of
the liquor.
There were no marks on either of the
casks to indicate the name of the ship
that carried them. Both apparently had
been in the water for 4 long time.
The cask. or carhoy. found on Padre
Island, was brought to Brownsville last
night from Padre Island by Customs In
Spcctors White and Eads.

miles up the beach from Point Isabel by
Nicolas Renault After examining the
cask for distinguishing marks Rcnault re-
ported hiS find 10 the Brownsville Gus

the cask To Point Isabel. Examination nj
