Women Delegates
Are Voted Down

st. Paul, Mimi, June 15.-Women
delegates to the annual convention
of American Federation Of Labor
suffered their initial defeat today
when a resolution enlarging the exc
cutive council to thirteen and in
Guiding two women members was
voted down. Nearly a score OF
other resolutions affecting the
postoffice department, Shipyards and
private corporations were adopted
without dissension. A recommended
,tion that the selection of the con-
vention city be left in the hands OF
executive council was defeated after
speakers on the floor had stated that
such action would be in violation
of the progress Of the democracy
for which the federation stands.
Another resolution adopted calls
upon president Wilson to issue a
proclamation of time and a half for
overtime in all parts of the coun-
try. Strict observance Of the eight
hour work day in the postoffice and
other governmental departments was
requested. The health of employees
and efficiency in these departments
is being impaired, it was said, by
the necessity of working long hours.
In case Of emergency, however, over
time was advisable, according to the
resolution, the, workers to be paid
for time and q half. L..

Reports Reveal Optimistic
Feeling In All Sections
Of The State

Weather conditions In North -Da-
kota have never been more favor
able for the growing grain 4oropa
than within the past week, and a
most optimistic feeling regarding
crop prospects prevails in all sec
tons Of the state, according to re-
ports reaching Fargo.
The cool weather which followed
the copious rains of last week, say
the reports, allowed the moisture
to thoroughly impregnate the fields,
and this followed by the warm sun
shine gave the plants great grow
ing impetus.
All reports agree that the grain
is well stooled, and thus in condi-
ton to respond more rapidly to fav-
orable growing weather. ..
The rust menace apparently is
causing little concern. Observers
hold that ideal weather conditions
which permitted very early seeding

Wheat, barley and oats, the reports
add, never looked more promising,
and that while winter rye is Of thin
stand in some sections it promises
a fair yield. Early flax is reported
as very satisfactory, and is still be-
ing planted as a result Of very fav-
orable soil conditions. .s
The wheat acreage, estimated at
more than 100000 acres, is the
largest in the history of the state,
its condition being rated at SO as
compared to SO at this time a year
ago. The estimated production is
more than 100000 bushels.
The barley acreage is about nor
NAL, and the estimated production
Is 72,000,000 The same is true OF
barley, which is expected to exceed
34,000,000 bushels. Rye, despite its
present condition, is expected to ex-
coed 27,000,000 bushels.
There is, as yet, no estimate, on
flax, but the total number Of BUSH
els produced will greatly exceed first

Corn, which never has been an ex-
