fluence.

I'm the Twenty-second Assembly
District where the largest suffrage
vote was cast, the Socialists also made
their greatest gain and polled their
largest vote.
I'm the entire city, the Socialists re-
ceiVed 107,S05 more votes than the
largest previous Socialist vote in every
borough.
In the entire city the suffragists
received 95,913 more votes, and the
anti-suffragists 1858 fewer votes
than in 1915.
even in their difference, the fig
ures are significant.
IF, as Mr.. Hillquit said, all these
Socialist votes were cast for the wo-
man suffrage amendment the suf-
frage and Socialist gains would be the
same-unless the suffragists lost 12.-
600 votes, and the anti-suffragists
gained 10000 votes from other
causes"

Army cantonments was. 1884 To
the same date building supplies used
in the Guard camps amounted to 3d.
$40 carloads; and 9,649 carloads had
been shipped into the Aviation camps
A standard box car of 100000

inches long. If all the cars carrying
material for these three classes of
camps could be coupled together, the
train that would result would extend
