DIVORCE COLONY TO
BE THING OF PAST;
MOODY BILL PASSED

There promises to be an exodus of
divorces from Idaho in the very near
future, for the senate Friday afternoon
passed the Moody bill extending the
time of residence before application
for divorce may be filed from six
months to one year. The measure is
so amended as not to become effec-
tive for six months from and after
its approval. BY giving this grace
those with applications for divorce
pending may be able to dispose of
their cases while those expecting to
commence actions may do so. The
amendment must first be approved by
the house and then the bill must have
the sanction of the governor.
This bill was passed by the house
some time ago. Its purpose is to put
the bars up against easy divorce get
ting in Idaho and to slow down the
divorce mills. 1t has been held Idaho
has secured an unfavorable reputation
because of it's present lax laws.
When the bill came out of the SEN
ate judiciary committees hands there
was attached to it an unfavorable re-
port. Senator Randall forced it out
by call. Proceeding on to third read
ing after being amended it was passed
with but six votes registered against
! 1t. An attempt to indefinitely post
pone the bill in the committee Of the
whole failed utterly.

NE w YORK GIVES
w ARM APPROVAL
TO MISS RANKIN
Thousands Cheer Congress-
woman From Montana as
She Speaks to Her First
Gotham Audience.

New York, March S.-Three
thousand New Workers stampeded,
cheered and waved their approval
of little slip of a woman all in
white chiffon and almost as en-
barrassed as a high school girl
in a graduating class at Carnegie
hall. She was Miss Jeanette
Rankin, congresswoman from
Montana; and the speech was her
first to a New York audience.
But there was no white chiffon
about Miss Rankin's opinions. She
led off by sounding the keynote
of her campaign:
Let the people know" and the
crowd liked It. She went on to
plead for political, business and
social democracy" and the crowd
liked that, too.
woman suffrage Is coming"
she said, lin spite of the Demo-
cratic party" Miss Rankin is a
Republican.
She was proud of her party and
said so; and Of her sex, and said
so; and of her victory, and, said
so; and the crowd cheered her
every time. 1t cheered her when
she expounded in clear, forceful
style her convictions concerning
the questions of the day, including
this:
Women are entitled to the right
to say whether their men shall go
to war"

ISSUES APPEAL FOR
STRENGTHENING OF
NATIONS DEFENSES

New York March 3.-"EXposure oil
the German plot to embroil Mexico and
Japan in war with the United States,
should turn the attention of the entire
country to the weakness of our de-
Tense system and to support of uni
versal military service" Colonel JOS
eph H. Colt, chairman of the board of
trustees of the American Defense So
ciety, declared.
only one thing will give us any
sort of chance to hold our own against
Germany or any other nation. That is
speedy breaking down of party lines Sn
congress so that the question of de-
Tense can be considered by nationa

Politics in the past has divided the
| American congress against itself will
| the result that our legislators, chosen
| to give the best that is in them for I'M
selfish devotion to the nation, have
! thought less of defense than anything
| else.
THE test hour for those legislators
is here.
ut may interest them to know :
there are fewer men in the Unite.
States regular army than there art
there are licensed chauffeurs in New
York. and the $4,000 men needed t.
fill the vacancies in our regular nav!
would give full population to a city o

our navy is big or powerful enough t.
repel invasion.
These defects must be remedied
and only a united congress, unselfishl,
American and working for the Unite
States, can change them"

gagements to follow the debate.
Diplomats kept tabs from their spe-
cial gallery while the ordinary admis-
sion galleries were damned.
The session recessed at 1855 until
10 this forenoon.
The arrangement then was to con-
tinue with the armed neutrality bill
and pass that. But Republicans serv-
ed notice that they intended to thwart
passage Of any other measure for the
direct purpose Of forcing an extra ses-
sion.
Talk is all that is needed to kill the
remaining supply bills. and with only g
few hours of the present session re-
naming, this can be accomplished cas-
lily.
SITUATION NOT ALTERED.
State department officials said the
fact that Germany admitted her ac'
did not alter the diplomatic situation
I'VE were convinced of the authen.
ITCHY of the plot" said one official
though he added that what German,
had to say might have a bearing OF
whether or not the admission aggra
waited the situation.
Authorities felt the admission would
have the immediate effect of solidify
ing patriotic sentiment in congress ant
the nation, and might swerve thu
doubling.
They believed It might kill Senate
Stones opposition to the armed neu
trality measure, and any more peace
| at-any- price talk on the bill.
