with a peryasive sense Of humor and
a 'realness" that is engaging, all

Though her cause, she maintains, is
primarily that Of all women. to give

all the benefit Of the woman's view

political aims.
Miss Martin pledges herself to gov
ernment ownership of public utilities,
to irrigation projects in her State Of
Nevada; to a fight against railroad
rates in her State and to the cause
of the farmer and the farm Iaborer.
Il would drive out the /. w. W.

and mining districts of Nevada" she
says. Il would make Reno a rail-
road terminal point and stop the pay
ment Of a long haul rate from Chi
cago to San Francisco and then back

now; I would give a special rate To

As usual there are several dark

tion in protection of a nations
fighters in history. Its final appro-
val yesterday was by unanimous
vote.
Features of Bill.
The most important features follow:
A lawsuit cannot be settled against
a man who Is unable to appear by
reason of military service. Courts
must appoint attorneys for such de-
fendants.
A lawsuit begun by a person who
later enters military service may be
postponed until the man in service is
able to give his personal attention.
a soldiers wife or family cannot
be evicted from any premises, rent
for which does not exceed $50 a
month. The court may inquire into
all such cases and make such order
as may be just" An attempt to evict
shall be punishable by a 1000 fine.
On homes being bought on INSTALL
,ment payments, the contract shall
not be foreclosed for nonpayment un-
less a court 50 decides after an inves-
tigation. The court may then order
all payments to date refunded. The
court may stay proceedings alto
gether.
Insurance is defined to include bene-
fits from fraternaI or benefit societies,
as well as commercial life insurance
NOnpayments due to military service
shall not invalidate the policy up to
one year after the close Of the war.
Property Is Safe.
Nonpayment OF taxes cannot result
in the sale of a fighters property.
This includes assessments and levies
Of every sort for either national,
state or local governments.
Mine claims, timber claims and
farm claims all are guarded against
foreclosure by the government either
for failure to perform work. absence.
nOnpayment OF fees, or failure to
make improvements.
General provisions are made that
courts may enter such judgments in
all cases as may be equitable both
to the debtor and creditor. Making OF
reasonable arrangements instead OF
enforcing the absolute provisions of
the act against either party to suits
under the bill is encouraged.
