From the Governor, who was pleased to sign the resolution, down, Mrs. Lucas has nothing but kind words for the men of her state. In deed, they seem to merit her praise. And she should know for she chap. eroned the bill through all its vicissi. tudes up to the moment of passage on the closing night after the clock had been stopped to permit the transaction of legislative business.
 Men of all parties throughout the state were in favor of the amend mont and did all in their power to facilitate It's passage.
 On the last night when the bill had not yet been reported out of com mittee, Mrs. Lucas persuaded one oi it's friends to call a caucus and bind the members by caucus rule, and when the measure came to vote later in the evening, 1t carried with. out a dissenting voice. Shes hurried with the engrossed bill to the House to have that body recede from itl primary election clause and ratify the substituted general election. Then back she went to the Senate for the presidents signature: and again to the House for the Speakers sigma. ture and to have the bill engrossed with it's amendments. At am. Mrs. Lucas had tho satisfaction oi enrolling the act which will enamel. pate the Oklahoma women if the cam. paign prosecuted by the suffragista during the coming months Is brought to successful conclusion at the polls in 1918.
 The president of the Oklahoma State Suffrage Association is Mrs. Adelia c. Stephens. The correspond- ing secretary is Mrs. Julia Wood. worth.
 Mrs. Lucas is chairman of the finance committee. All tLree are residents of Oklahoma City, but rep resentative women from all over tho state were largely instrumental in the passage of this bill.

THE DEVILS ANSWER

You've got the wrong number, Herr
 William,
 All your chatter is wasted up there God hasn't got time now to listen
 To your covetous, murder-stained
 prayer.
 You know I was kicked out of heaven And assigned to these regions of hell For some reasons less infamous, Wm. Than some deeds which your long record swell. Foul deeds, Kaiser Wilhelm, and black Than the black pits I'm roasting I lem in,
 Those fiends of the earth who came
 hlther 1 Submerged by the weight of their So you're wasting your time, Kaiser Wilhelm,
 With that brand of prayer that you pray
 If you want to get next to the Master You must spiel in different way. To hell with your submarine warfare, And to hell with all of your boast, God simply won't give you attention Nor suffer your murderous host. If you want to connect up with Heaven Old Sport, let me drop you tip, You will have to "can" some of that
 music,
 And get rid of that blade on your hip.
 God won't be your partner, believe me, No sooner than he will be mine, And he don't care for your armies, That are keeping the Watch on the
 Rhine.
 So if you want Heaven, Herr Billy, Let your silly war-bickerings cease And try getting next the Almighty
 In language that savers of peace. I'm handing this tip to you gratis, And I trust you may follow it we'll; I want you to fix things with Heaven, Since mean to be boss here in hell. HIS SATANIC MAJESTY.

Their Suffrage Promise A Moral Obligation to

Bill, ExtoIs PoIitlcaI
 Leaders.
 A political promise is no scrap of paper to Oklahoma legislators. An overwhelmingly Democratic legisla- ture demonstrated what President Wilson calls the moral obligation" of the St. Louis national suffrage plank by adopting the Oklahoma suffrage amendment resolution in both houses in March of this year.
 Back of Oklahoma's recent suffrage victory is story of mans humanity and gratitude to woman. It is told by Mrs Frank B. Lucas of Oklahoma City, who claims the distinction of being the only woman to enroll leg islative measure. Enrolling an act, Mrs. Lucas explains, is the final dis. position made of successful meas ure.
 why did they permit me to do It 2" said Mrs Lucas. Because they knew I understood the procedure. It Is my vocation to compile, annotate and citate laws The legislators let me enroll the suffrage bill because they knew I could be trusted not to alter word or line. Never was so tempted! The resolution had been amended to permit women to vote at the primaries but the amendment had been lost. did want to see that amendment. go in.

London Raided Again By German Airplanes and Drop Many Bombs
nx th. A..oc,.ted Pres.

London. September 2s.-Hostile air planes raided London again tonight
 An official communication from the home office on the latest raid says:
 Hostile airplanes crossed the coasts of Kent and Essex in groups between 8 and o'clock. Several attacks were made upon London and some bombs were dropped in the northeast and southeast ern districts.
 Bombs were also dropped at various places in Kent and Essex. No report of vasualties have yet been received
 LONDON WAS WARNED
 London's warning of an impending raid was given quickly by policemen riding through the streets with take cover" signs on their breasts, and ev- eryone hurried to shelter. Soon the distant roar of guns was heard. Then the explosions of guns and the crack of shrapnel bursting in the air came nearer. The flash of the bursting shells in the night was incessant. From all directions the defense guns boomed.
 TERRIFIC COMMANDMENT Mingled with the sound of the guns the whirring of Gothas was heard overhead. Bombs began to drop, as could be told by their peculiar ex- plosion. The fire of the anti-aircraft guns seemed heavier than on any pre- vious raids and it was obvious that barrages were being thrown up to defeat the purpose Of the raiders.

BAN ON DISPA TCHES| FROM FRANCO-BELGLAN FRONT IS NOT LyS% TED
Official Statements Issued Do Not Shed Light On Reason For Intersection-British Casualties For September Totaled 1O4,598, of Which
 Killed Comprised 18,936 Which is
 Evidence of Tremendous Battle.
By Associated Press

At a late hour the ban on press dispatches from the Franco-Belgian front ap- parently had not been raised and the world was left to guess whether the interdic- tion was intended to conceal some military movement of prime importance or wheth- CT there was a relatively in consequential reason for it.
 The official statement afforded no clue to the mystery. Field Marshal Haig's report in the forenoon of Sat- urday, for instance, was of the routine character that ordinarily excited no comment, merely announcing recipro- cal artillery fire. The Berlin state- nlcnt was similarly unilluminating.
 From the French front there was an absence of any interesting news except that violent artillery activity was re- ported east of the Mouse in the verdun region.
 ITALIANS AGAIN ACTIVE
 The official statement from Rome shows General Cadorna giving his in fantry rein again, with the result that an important gain was effected in the Monte San Gabrielle region, northeast of Gorizia. A surprise attack carried

In each case the announcement read "the amount has been computed on per- centage basis" and while the banking resources of each district-that is the total resources of the national banks, state banks and trust companies-have been given large consideration. other factors have been taken into account, such as the income tax collected from each district, the assessed value of prop erty therein the subscriptions received from each district to the first liberty loan and the amount of bonds allotted on such subscriptions, the capital avail able for bond investment in each district and the population.
 The basis of apportionment has va 'ried materially from that used in the first liberty loan, when the banking re- sources of each federal reserve district were the sole basis of calculation. It is likely that apportionments will be an- nounced shortly.
 Governors of the federal reserve banks have been notified by Secretary McAdoo of the apportionments. The sums stated in the amount expected" column are designated as the amount which each district should subscribe in order to se cure the result imperatively demanded for the defense and security of the na- tiOn'

Excess Profits and Income Sections Are Left Un- changed in the New
 Draft
DIFFERENT SYSTEM OF CALCULATING PROFITS FOUND BY COMMITTEE
Basis of Present Capital Is Recommended Instead of Three Pre-War
 Years
Rx Aa.ocinted Pres.

Washington, September 29. Final Agreement on the $2, ,700,0OO,OOO war tax bill was reached late today by the Senate and House con- ferees and the report will be presented to the House Mon- day. Levies of approximate ly LOGO, 100000 on war ex- cess profits and 100000 on incomes were left un- changed, but a new system of calculating excess profits was adopted.
 The committee report recommends that the tax of 20 to 50 per cent on excess war profits of corporations, partnerships and individuals shall be levied on a basis of invested capital, compared with invested capital of the three pre-war years of 1911, 1912 and 1913. This is substitute for the Sen ate taxes of from 12 to 60 per cent based upon similar comparison of pre-war and present profits. INCOME TAX SECTION The income tax section Virtually was unchanged, except for encouragement |of surtaxes on incomes between st5,ooo and $4o,0oo. The graduated surtaxes of from 1 to 50 per cent on incomes from s50Oo to those of $1,0oo,000 and over were approved.
 The Senate increase of from to per cent of the income tax Sn corpora tions. joint stock companies and insur- ance companies. was approved. together with the new normal individual tax of per cent on incomes of unmarried persons in excess of 5000 and of mar ried persons of more than $200o
 EXCESS PROFITS
 The graduated excess profits rates are 20 per cent of excess profits not in excess of IS per cent of the invested capital for the taxable year; 25 per cent profits in excess of IS per cent
