said it would be Considerable mum.
Der. Figures given Congressional
committees, however, indicate there
will be less than rifle to each two
soldiers at first. The war. secretary
said no further delay in calling the
units to camp, however, was contemp
plated.
"Our first large deliveries of the
new Enfields begin this month";" he
said. "Now that they are started il
is just question of catching up
again, as our production will be am
pie for needs and requirements
Secretary Baker said that the ex-
peditionary forces were being armed
with Springfields and the national
guard units would be given Spring
fields as fast as there was sufficient
quantity to supply them. The ma
tional army, he said, would be armed
entirely with the new Enfields.
Asked about the present shortage
of equipment at Rort Riley, Secre-
tary Baker said the situation would
be remedied in few days. He said
there is sufficient equipment for the
entire national army and it was only
a question of transportation in get
ting it to the camps. He said supplies
were being sent to the camp by ex-
press as quickly as possible.
Although war was declared early
in April it was not until the summer
was nearly over that the actual pro-
duction of the new Enfields began.
The first large deliveries will be made
this month. They are being made at
three large factories that turned the
Enfields out for the British govern
ment. Testimony before committee
points to a production of between
five thousand and ten thousand rifles
a day.

longer before every man is supplied
although rifles will soon begin pour

The same situation is true of artil-
lery. Two or three battery units will
have to train withthe same guns. 1t
will take longer to fully equip troops
with artillery than with rifles, it was
officially admitted AS far as
uniforms and clothing are concerned,
it will be only matter of days until
the supplies can be sent to the camp,
it was stated.
Secretary Baker admitted the in
ability of the government to furnish
enough rifles. He said the shortage
would not interfere with the train
ing, as the units could use the rifles
at different times of day. Certain
companies or regiments will have the
weapons in the morning and other
units have them in the afternoon. The
same course will be pursued with ar

A CALL TO CONFERENCE.
of the Kansas State Branch of tn
National Woman's PARTY.

of the Kansas State Branch of the
National Woman's Party.
Fellow Citizen:
The government has called the
forces of the nation to war, a war in
which President Wilson says, We
are fighting for the thing that has al
ways lain nearest our hearts, Demo-
cracy, the right of those who submit
to authority to have voice in their
government"
The nation is sending millions of
its boys in response to this call to
give their lives for Democracy
abroad, and at the same time it is
denying Democracy to half of its
people at home. Twenty million
American women have no voice in
their government, and when their re-
representatives. carry to the gates of
the White House their demand for
liberty, the answer of the government
is Imprisonment and the punishment
accorded the lowest criminal.
Women are not asking the govern
ment to do the impossible. Congress
could easily pass the Susan B. An
thony amendment if the President
gave his support. If the President
should declare for national suffrage
he could undoubtedly influence
of the amendment through Congress,
and this victory for DEMOCRACY would
be accomplished without struggle or
grief, without the loss of single
life, or any waste of national wealth.
1t is those who deny justice, who
embarrass the country; not those who
demand justice.
Until all women are enfranchised,
the voice of Kansas women in gov
eminent is not heard
