from California. Attired in a khaki

walked a great deal of the way.
The primary object of her trip. she
says. was to gather data on social eco
Monies, in which she aims to bring
out this age as the third great period
in American history. This was not her
only motive, however. as she Ii an
ardent suffragist and a much interested
worker in the high cost Of living ques-
ton.
She says she feels as If she had
picked up material that will be OF
service to the country. Miss Alexander
was an interested spectator in the
Senate gallery Friday during a de-
bate on the administration food bill.
She declares she is vitality interested
in all national affairs, especially the
food question.
Miss Alexander travelled along tho
Mexican border and through the south
ern states. stopping in a number of
the principal cities to make observa.
tons in the interest of her mission

that came under her observation was
that of woman's education. She said

and go out in the world to fight their
battles for life without the proper
preparation.
