Miss Rankin
Feels Women
Will Win Here
Congresswoman Addresses q
Meetings-Speaks at One
From Soapbox

Representative Jeanette Rankin
came TO New York yesterday and adj
dressed four suffrage meetings, the
last of which was real suffrage
jubilee ut Cooper Union last night.
Only two meetings we're planned for
the Congresswoman but as she was
entering Cooper Union after schcd-
uled meeting at the Labor Lyceum in
Brooklyn earlier in the evening large
crowd that had been turned away from
the capacity meeting met her and
called loudly for a speech.
Margaret Hinchey then produced a
soap box and Miss Rankin, pink crepe
de chine gown. silver slippers and all,
mounted the box and told them all
why labor people should vote for wom-
an suffrage. The other impromptu
meeting occurred yesterday noon at the
headquarters Of the Woman Suffrage
Party of New York City, when the
visitors and workers took a few min
utes off to listen TO the music of Miss
Rankin's enthusiastic prediction for
the suffrage amendment.
Sure New York Will Win
For Miss Rankin is sure that New
York is going to win woman suffrage
this time. She hasn't made any sur
veys and she has no figures, charts or
other political compasses by which TO
see the way, but she says that she feels
it in her bones that suffrage is gong
TO win.
"A vote for woman suffrage on No
vember is not only vote for your
own woman. IL is also a vote for the
working women of Europe, for the Ia
Dor of the world. In time OF war the
standards of the working people are
often broken down. Let's keep our
standards up; let's raise them by en-
franchising the working woman so she
can bear her share Of this war more
easily and with greater effect to the
government"
Other speakers at the Cooper Union
meeting were Mary Dreier, Rose
Schneiderman, chairman Of the meet
ing: Melinda Scott, George Berry, IN
tern ational president of the Pressmen's
Union, and Leonora OReIlly.

Planned by Government to Expedite
 Shipments to Europe.

Washington, Nov. 22-Creation of a war port board for each of the prin- cipal Atlantic and Gulf ports is plan ned by the government to expedite the movement of men and materials to Europe.

 The port of New York already has a war board. Others would be named at Boston, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Hampton Roads, New Orleans and Galveston
 Four factors enter into the efficient moving of troops and supplies across the ocean-railroad transportation, loading, movement of the vessel and unloading on the other. side The roads now are holding trains in the interior when 1t appears their arrival at the docks would complIcate load ing The port board probably would work out plan for diverting trains to ports in which there was the least congestion
