MAKES HER MAIDEN SPEECH;
GETS WOMEN ON WAR MAE

Washington, May 2S.-Visibly ner-
vous, but spurred on by cheers and
applause, Miss jeanette Rankin, con-
gresswoman from Montana, made her
maiden speech in the house of repre-
sentatives Woman's work was her
theme. She not only made her speech
but had an amendment passed to the
Lever food survey bill-all in five
minutes Thh amendment read:
provided, that the SECRETARY of ag-
riculture shall, so far as is practica-
BILE, engage he services of women for
the work herein provided for"
The work" indicated is the food
conservation, elimination Of waste and
increased production as carried in
the bill. The sum of s2,500,0OO is set
aside for these purposes.
Miss Rankin's speech came as sur
prise. She has paid close attention to
votes on the floor, but has made no
public utterance except before the wo-
man suffrage committee. When Rep
resentative Hamlin of Missouri, who
temporarily occupied the chair, rec
ognized the LADY from Montana" the
usually noisy and boisterous house
became suddenly silent and attentive.
The only living congresswoman
! braced herself against the back of the
seat in front of her, cleared her throat
and began:
''The work provided for in this para
graph such as gathering information.
extending and enlarging the news SER
vice and preventing waste includes &C
tivities," she continued. "They are so
seing women fill,'' she began.
She spoke deliberately and calmly.
Women are we'll fitted for these ac-
tivites,' she continued. They are so
closely related to the home. 1t is self
! evident that women are going to fill
many positions that have been filled
by men in the past.
Women officials. with their under
standing and sympathy for home prob
! lens, will inspire confidence in the
! home. the home woman, and will en-
courage her to cooperate with the gov
ernment in this emergency"
BY the time the congressWoman had
proceeded thus far the reporters, who
! were struggling in the press gallery
with their notes, were handed care
! fully prepared advance copies of her
! speech.
"Our higher educational institu-
tions," she went on, "have been turn

PORT ROYAL GETS MOBILIZATION
OF L. 5. MARINE FORCE
Charleston American.

1HdTIeSlOH american.
Washington, May 2S.-Port Royal, S.
c.. is to be the training camp of not
less than 1000 marines with the pros
poets that not less than this number
will be there at any one time during
the war with Germany. For several
weeks the navy department has been
quietly working to find a seaboard
town where proper facilities were af-
forded to train the marines who are
enlisting by the thousands daily. After
careful investigation Port Royal was
selected. Many reasons exist for this
decision. The government already
owns property there and Parry Island
has been leased as a training camp
and all the additional land near the
present government property will be
acquired. 1t is known that the inten-
tions are to make it regular marine
post, with all facilities afforded.

War and the Pleasure Car
Denatured Alcohol Good Substitute
for Gasolene

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The average patriotic car owner Will
agree with your editorial of to-day entitled
"War and the Pleasure Car"
We certainly do not wish to waste the gas
olene which the army needs. There is, how
ever. more to be said on the subject Seven
years ago the United States government
made tests recorded in Bulletin 392 of the
Department of the Interior which showed
that denatured alcohol could be used with
perfect success in almost any gasolene
engine, the only change being in the ADJUST
ment of the needle valve of the carburetor'
which would have to deliver double guam
tity OF liquid. The user would find 1t a
little harder to start, but he would be able
to use 80 per cent alcohol and even ~ per
cent alcohol.
The question then is not whether cars
shall be retired from all but the most neces-
sary uses, but whether the patriotic owner
will consent to run on alcohol, and whether
the Congress will enact such laws as VIII
encourage a sufficient supply OF denatufed
alcohol substantially at the cost OF manu-
facture. II needs only encouragement 10
create an enormous production OF alcohoi'
and this mainly out of what is actuaiiS
waste material. process now exists ny
which wood alcohol may be turned INTO
ethyl alcohol and denatured. The cost OF
this fuel will be somewhat greater than the
present price of gasolene. 1t is rather an-
surd TO ask an owner who has paid one or
two thousand dollars for a car, on which the
depreciation for the year will be from three
to five hundred dollars, to abstain from using
it when it is perfectly practicable by suita-
BILE legislation and at an increased expense
TO him of not more than $50 on perhaps
5000 miles of use to provide him with an
entirely suitable substitute fuel, VIZ, alcohol'
Alcohol has some special advantages
among others that it does not carbonlze tne
cylinders even if carelessly used. 1t is mucn
safer to handle and its explosive range Is
two or three times as great as that OF gaso-
lene. II should have been long since maze
a common fuel, and perhaps the pressure
of war will bring this about. 1t is equally
efficient as gasolene if used with suitable
engine compression, about three times as
great as for a gasolene engine, but 1t snould
te repeated that it will operate very salts
factorily in the ordinary automobile engine
of to-day. CHARLES T. MA'ih''H'

Woman Suffrage and Patriotism

To the Editor OF The tribune.
Sir: | wonder if you get as tired as do
Of hearing every one who disagrees with any
one else call the other fellow unpatrlotic-f
Tot pro-German. Surely there is more
intelligent way to discuss the burning issues
of to-day, issues which are causing people
TO do the most intense thinking of their
lives.
Here. in YOUR letters this morning, is the
same old stupid method, by Mrs. Forbes, OF
calling the suffrsgists unpatriotIc. | wlsh
to inform her that the suffragist ranks have
every creed, politics and propaganda repre-
sented. All are fighting in the best way
thew know for the liberty Of 27000,000 wom-
en-. That's all.
When | was imprisoned with ten others OF
the National Woman's party | was struck
with the variety of political views brought
out in the many warm discussions among
ourselves during those long, dreary days
One with two sons at the front urged the
necessity for crushing the Kaiser at once,
while another explained the value OF the
work of the Peoples Council for peace and
democracy. Republican among US de-
clared for high protective tariff. Two who
had travelled much in France argued hard
for a French Alsace-Lorraine, and an inter-
nationalist reasoned brilliantly for mo an
nexations and no indemnties.' One OF US
spent the time knitting for this war, entered
into by the Administration which had i'm
prisoned her for her conception of democ-
racy.
People who would not give up ever so
little for a conviction cannot understand the
suffragst struggling for the citizens of the
United States or the pacifist for all human
ity-the idealists who sacrifice life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness for the honest
beliefs in them, beliefs which may differ
from those of the rank and file thinker. Need
they therefore hurl the easy jibes "unpa-
triotic," Unreasonable" at them by way of ar
gument? ELIZABETH STUfNESANT.

Quite Badly Impressed"

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May tell you that we are group of
young men in New York who are quite badly
impressed on what is going on in Congress
about the draft in its applications?
Senator Chamberlain's provision, so fer
vently supported by Senator Calder, for the
purpose of sending aliens and foreigners to
take the place of duty and honor in our army,
instead of real Americans, we think to be one
of the most anti-natioral provisions ever
sought. They proclaim to have excogitated
it just "to redeem thousands of young citi-
zens from going to war"
This is a Generalization of national senti-
ment. To suggest and help citizens to hide
themselves behind the shoulders of non-citi-
zens is thing that goes beyond any term
Of definition.
But besides this stands another moral OBJ
servation. Is it possible to ask an oath OF
non-cltizens for a country which is not
theirs? How could they be supposed to swear
in good faith? Should such soldiers be
trusted with plain confidence by a nation
We would like Senator'S Chamberlain and
Calder TO ponder in all deepness these ques-
tions before they put our nation in such a
situation. ANDREW FERGUSON

Y. NJ. c. A. Beyond Praise
Accomplishes Great Work Without
Special Contributions

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Appeals are being made now in behalf
of so many organizations for the relief OF
suffering caused by the war that the chari-
tably inclined are really bewildered. But the
response of the American public has been
very generous and satisfying. Some Of these
organizations are using the present emer-
gency to exploit themselves, and in few In
stances the money may be wasted.
1t seems to me that your newspaper ought
to call attention to one association that has
been exceedingly efficient and for which no
campaign for giving has been urged. I speak
of the Young Mems Christian Association.
In every one of the camps TO which our
young soldiers are being sent the Young
Mems Christian Association has its head
quarters, and furnishes to the lads every sort
of facility that clubhouse usually affords.
1t is generally understood that the same ad-
vantages are afforded to our soldiers who are
already located in France. In every part Of
the land where there is any considerable
number Of American soldiers in any canton
ment, the Young Mems Christian Association
is on the ground, offering ready service. The
management seems to be able to do these
things without asking special contributions
The efficiency of such a society is beyond
praise. At the same time it seems to me
your newspaper could well afford to praise it,

How Far Will 1t Go?

Second only in Importance to the war
itself is the sweeping movement for gov
crnmental control Of industry which is
everywhere gaining headway as a military
necessity. Conservative citizens and busi-
ness men are asking, "How far is this
process of socialization to go?" How rad
| ical is this spirit of change to become?
Where, once the tide has set in toward col
| lectivism, is it to stop short of state So
cialism in some form?
The answer rests largely with the lead
ers of business themselves, or rather with
those who seem to see in the present world
struggle chiefly an opportunity and pre-
text for exploiting the consumer 1t is
| time that dealers who are tempted by
schemes of getting rich quick at public ex-
pense realized that upon their conduct
now depend both the nations future and
their own. The public expects from busi-
ness to-day something different from the
"old rules of the game" and if it fails to
any great extent to get that something
under private management it will not
hesitate long to try public management.
1t is certain that governmental control
of business will be extended to the point
set by the demands of military efficiency
and public welfare during this crisis. Just
where that point is to be fixed-whether
the changes found necessary for the con-
duct of the war are to remain permanent,
whether they are to grow into a general
nationwide movement against private
control of industrial capital-will depend
largely upon the spirit shown by those who
to-day have in charge the production and
distribution of the necessaries of life.
Public conscience has come to look upon
profit grabbing and price manipulating In
war time as essentially disloyal and un-
patriotic conduct. Let the public once be-
come firmly convinced that our present
business system, which has already shown
itself inefficient in every Allied nation, Is
also conducive to unpatriotic practices in
the hour of national stress, and private
management in certain lines Of business
! is doomed. Let the thousands who have
denied themselves in order to subscribe to
the Liberty Loan feel that any large por-
ton of dealers are trying to cheat the
government in the price of such things as
coal, steel, munitions or provisions; let
consumers and householders, driven to the
verge Of want by rise in the price Of
