Woman Suffrage Wins In N. Y.

The victory for woman suffrage in
New York is victory for woman suf-
frage all over the United States. Even
before the election it is believed there
was good chance for. the passage of
the Woman Suffrage Federal Amend
ment by the Congress which will open
December /. The addition of the
great Empire State to the suffrage
forces practically assures that the
congress will pass the suffrage amend
ment easily and promptly.
New York has 43 Members of Con-
gress, only small minority of whom
voted for woman suffrage amendment
in 1915, the first and only time it has
reached vote in the House. The
enormous influence of the Empire
State is universally recognized.
The wonderful triumph in New.
York vindicates the Judgment of
those suffragists who believe that
both state and federal work are nee
essary to win. 1t also vindicates the
Judgment of those who believe that
patriotic work by women done loyalty
and effectively is an argument in fav-
or of woman suffrage to the minds of
the people of this country, as it has
proven to the minds of the people of
other countries who have enfranchised
women since the beginning Of the
war The New York City and State
organizations have been extremely
conspicuous during the past six
months in many lines of patriotic SER
vice, The women of New York have
in all probability secured their enfran-
chisemena on exacting the same
grounds and for exactly the same
reasons that enfranchisement came to
the women in Canada, is just on the
point of being confirmed by the
women in England and is advancing
for most of the women of the majority
Of the European countries.
The enthusiastic support given the
suffrage campaign in New York by
President Wilson no doubt contributed
largely to the favorable outcome. Sui
fragists are expecting that the Presi-
dent will add to the many favors he
has done the suffrage cause by the SUI
preme assistance of urging the amend
ment in his annual message, or at
least pronouncing in favor Of it before
it comes to a vote.

Attention.

Seven years ago European student
of history prophesied that the next.
great war of the future would not be
won by fighting but by famine. We
are today fighting that war, and fans
inc is indeed threatening to be itsaar.
bitter. The men Of England, Scotland,
Ireland, France, Italy, and Belgium
our allies are fighting; they are not
on the farlns,sThe production Of food
by these countries has therefore been
greatly reduced. Even before the war
it was. much less than the amount
consumed. The difference came more
Largely from other countries than from
America. Now, this difference is
greaterst1lan ever, and, at the same
time, supplies can no longer come
from most of the other countries.
They must now come from America.
Therefore, our allies depend on US
for food as they have never depended
before, and they ask us for it with a
right which they have never had be.
fore. For to-day they are doing the
fighting, the suffering and dying in
our war. We MUST send them the food
they have to have. We WILL send it.
But we can only do it by a wise and
loyal economy of food on the part OF
every one of us. We must stimulate
our food production, organize our food
handling, eliminate all the waste pos
sible, substitute as largely as possible
other foods for wheat, beef, pork,
dairy products, and sugar, and reduce
consumption where it is excessive.
To accomplish these things is the
problem of the United States Food
Administration. But this accomplish
ment can come only from the COM
bined personal and voluntary service
OF all the people of the land. To that
end we want all the people to join the
Food Administration. No fees or
dues; merely a promise to help. Send
for our membership pledgeif you have

Drager's Opinion Of YIN. C. A.

Plattsburg, N. Y, Nov. 10.
Mr.. Grant Cook
Your letter at
hand asking me to give my view of
the y M. G. A. in connection will,
the Army. In the first place | will say
that the Y M. c. A is indispensable
with soldier life. It is the soldiers
only place of gathering and amuse-
ment in the field camp. furthermore,
the Y NJ G. A. is the connecting
link between the soldier and his home
and friends. In the army barracks we
have no conyeniences for the writing
Of letters and as a result we can write
few letters there. On the other hand
the Y NJ. G. A. furnishes all writing
material free of charge and we have
a good convenient place to write home
to our friends and loved ones.
1t is surprising to know the amount
of letters mailed thru the \, M. G. A.
The average for the camps / have
been in. is little more than a letter
per day for every man in camp, where
without the Y. NJ. c. A. this amount
of letters would be greatly reduced
and our friends at home would be
worrying over the delay in letters.
The Y. M. c.. A. always furnishes
free movies every night, and it is a
place of gathering for camp indoor
athletes and contests and | might
say that any money donated toward
financing the Y. Ne. G. A. is used for
good cause, and | am glad that my
home town has taken up this matter,
because it is only just due to the
boys. who are serving their nation in
a great cause. Hoping you will have
success in your movement,
I remain as ever,

day,
And peacefully lying in bed,
My thoughts revert in musing way
To the food which today I've been
fed.

beans and fish
And oysters I've had to eat,
I've no regrets for the good old days"
| really didn't miss the meat!
/ have come to the end of wheatless
day
[ have eaten no cookies or pie,
/ have had no bread that was made
with wheat;
1t was made out of corn or rye;
And / liked it so well, that when war
is past
And a glorious victory won,
I'll keep on observing Wheatless' days
And I II eat ''corn pone" for FUN !!

General Food Rules.

Buy less, serve smaller portions
Preach the g Gospel of the Clean
Plate.
Don't eat fourth meal.
Don't limit the plain food of growing
children.
Watch out for the wastes in the
community.
Full garbage pals in America mean
empty dinner pals in America
and Europe.
If the more fortunate of our people
will avoid waste and eat no more
than they need, the high cost OF
living problem Of the less FORUM
ate will be solved.

KILLED AT HARRISBURG

Lloyd Patterson, son of Mrs. John
F. Kelly, of 260 Sixth avenue west, of
this city, was killed in a collision be-
tween his automobile and an Oregon
Electric train mile north Of Junction
City at $3.50 O'Clock last evening
Mr.. Patterson, who was living on
the Kelly farm, between Coburg and
Harrisburg, had started in his car for
Eugene to take his wife, who was visit
ing at the home of Mr.. and Mrs, Kelly
here, home with him today. He had
passed through Harrisburg and had
reached point between that city and
Junction where the Pacific highway
crosses, both tho Oregon Electric and
southern Pacific tracks within only
IL few yards of each other. The tracks
of the two roads parallel each other
between Junction City and the Will
lamette river for a long distance uAd
both crossings at that point have long
been considered dangerous because of
the frequency of passing trains on eth
en- track.
How the accident occurred is not
known, as Mr.. Patterson was alone,
but the position of the automobile aft
er it was struck seemed to lead to the
belief that Mr.. Patterson was in the
act of driving upon the railroad grade
TO cross the track when the train struck
