Des iMoines, March 21.-When the
woman's suffrage amendment, made a
special order for consideration by the
senate of the Iowa legislature today,
comes up for consideration Senator
Kimball, of Pottawattamie county, will
move to amend the joint resolution on
this question by providing that the
women be allowed to themselves vote
on whether or not they wish the cleo
toral franchise extended to them, He
declares the legislature can extend to
them this privilege Of voting on this
question as under the constitution

Up in Both Houses.

The woman's suffrage fight is SEIZED
uled to come up today in both branches
OF the legislature. The Parker bill pro-
viding for equal suffrage was set for
special order Monday but was post
poned until today. On the house side
Representative Roy Murray of Storm
lake yesterday morning attempted to
force the house committee on consti-
tutional amendments to report out his
resolution for suffrage. He introduced
a resolution asking that the committee
be instructed to report the amendment
for action. Under the rules this reso-
luton will be considered today.
There have been two big hearings on
this question, one for the sufrs and
one for the ants. These hearings were
before Joint committee meetings of
both houses. Many petitions have also
been introduced for and against the
measure and considerable money has
been expended in keeping up the or
ganization work by the suffragists. 1t
Is thought doubtful. however. In view
Of the election Of last June, il enough

No License For chiropraetics.
The senate Of the Iowa legislature
yesterday afternoon defeated the bill
to license chiropractors. Notwith-
standing that the practitioners Of this
mode Of healing have made de-
termined fight to secure recognition
and the official sanction OF the state
in the way Of a license, secured after
taking an examination, the bill could
not muster enough votes to assure its
passage. When it finally came on the
floor OF the senate 1t has been so
stringently amended, and the require
ments lit set out were SO high, that
even the chiropractors themselves
were opposed to such a bill.

Io,va Boy Keeps In

the innovation which makes the farm
and the work Of Archie Banks, Of Del
mar, of more than ordinary interest.
The last vestige of isolation and aloof-
ness from the world has been 'baIistiea
from the farm by this young Iowan.
Back of his achievement lies story OF
determination which should be an in
spiration to all.
Eight years ago Archie Banks was
16-year-old boy, living on the farm or
his father, well known live stock
farmer. The boy had always been in
terested in machinery and mechanical
matters, but met with little encourage
ment along this line from his parents.
He might never have had an oppor-
tunity to develop his latent talents had
1t not been for an accident. One day.

them up again and she did so,'' says
Mr.. Banks. T happened to come IN

@Don't Hide." Says Crowder.

Washington, May 22.-"Do not hitch on behind petticoats or children to avoid service in the new national army" is the injunction of Provost Marshal General Crowder in an off cial guide he has issued to show how questions put to those who register on June should be answered.
 The guide explains that there is no desire by the government to draft any one who is the sole support of any many. woman or child, but points out that "unless the person you have in mind is solely dependent on you," ex- emption would not be granted"
 The registrar will drop permanent ly from the list those which physical defects, such as the absence of a leg or an arm. make unfit for service obvious, but all other claims for ex- emption will be passed upon by the local defense. The applicant will be required to state practically the char acter of the work he is performing in order that the board may judge if it is such as to warrant the government in excusing him from army duty.
 Eff you are a felon Or otherwise morally deficient and desire to claim exemption on that ground. state your ground briefly" says the guide.
 The difference between natural born' citizen and a naturalized citi- zen is explained carefully and it is pointed out that even alien enemies within the age, limit will be required

TWO MORE ENLIST
 IN NAVAL FORCES

Seaman w. c. Cox, of the local navy recruiting office, enlisted two re- cruits yesterday. They were Ben A. Meeks of Rison and George McGehee of this city. Both left yesterday for Little Rock to take their final eXami- nations. They were advised by Sea man Cox to enlist in the boiler de- partment. as this is the highest rate of pay for enlisted men.

He was also told to enlist boilermakers.

WASHINGTON HAS
 NO OFFICIAL NEWS


 Washington, March 14.-In the absence of official dispatches in the destruction of the steamer Algonquin, officials with held comment, but the unofficial view was that nothing in the incident changes the situation between the United States and Germany.
 President Wilson already has taken steps to place the nation in a state of armed neutrality which, with the break ing of diplomatic relations with Ger many is practically tine last measure possible short of war.
 American ships are now being armed to defend themselves against unlawful submarine attack The general view to- day is that arming of ships is the only answer to submarine operations short of a declaration of war, which may be made only by Congress.
 The circumstance that the Algonquin carried foodstuffs, which are contraband and that she recently was transferred from British to American registry, a transaction Germany might plead she would not recognize, are not taken to out weigh the fact that the ship was reported

Again this time over a front of mile and half southwest and west of Ba- paume, the British have advanced their front against the Germans holding the town against them, according to the lat est British official communication. With Tuesdays capture of the village of Grevil- zlers and the Loupart wood, the gain of the British Wednesday in this region seemingly puts them virtually at the out skirts of Bapaume.
 The advance of the left wing of the British was on a front of more than 20O0 yards south of Achie-le-Petit, which lies northwest of Bapaume. and the capture southwest of Essarts of 1000 yards of trenches.
