WOMAN SUFFRAGE
PRESIDENT DECLARES IT TO BE
ONE OF FUNDAMENTAL oUEs-
TloNs OF DEMOCRACY.
NOW IS Time TO TAKE ACTION

Give This Question Of Woman SUI
frage Our immediate Consideration"
Addresses New York Delegation.

Washington. President Wilson
gave full Endorsement to woman suf-
irage as an immediate issue In every

clared that woman suffrage is one OF
the fundamental questions Of democ-
racy whose proper settlement Is de-
manded by the issues of the war. He
praised the spirit. capacity and vision
Of American women In the war.
Il believe" he said, that Just be-
cause we are quickened by the ques-
lions of this war we ought TO be
quickened to give this question OF
woman suffrage our immediate con-
sideration."
Speaking as "one of the spokesman
OF great party" the President pledg-
cd his hearty support and added:
81 want to speak for myself and say
that 1t seems to me that this Is the
time for the states of this union to
take this action"
Explaining his leaning toward suf-
frage as state rather than national
issue. he said. IL perhaps may be
touched little too much by the ira
ditions of our politics traditions
which lay such questions almost en-
tirely upon the states, but want to
see communities declare themselves
quickened at this time and show the
consequences Of the quickening.'
The addresses were delivered In the
east room of the white house. In re-
Spouse to remarks by Mrs. Norman de
X. Whitehouse.
The suffrage delegation returned to

ROAD AID FUND WILL BE
CUT NEARLY so PER CENT

North Dakota's $500 mile system of
state and federal and highways must
be cut down so per cent, for the reason
that the department of agriculture
will restrict federal aid almost exclu-
sively to post roads. Large sections
of the Red, Wonderland and Yellow
stone trails will be prevented from re-,
ceiving federal aid by this ruling, and
many less important highways will
also be hit. Stark county was among

the schools, there is every reason why
the schools should progress, he said.

Principal A.. E., Wing and Assistant
Principal Lucille Neville. The two
teachers were ready to leave for their
homes on Friday, school having let

gether with ice cream. After lunch
there was music, and first upon the
floor appeared Mr.. Wing, serenading
very happily. He was handicapped a
little, however, as he never danced
before. In fact, this feature was the
most exciting, and caused the most
humor for the evening.
