NO WOMAN COMPELLED
 TO SERVE ON ANY JURY

Little Rock, July 5.-The constitu- tional convention worked only half a day yesterday, but in that time it adopted woman suffrage, to the ex- tent of granting to women the right to vote, hold office and even to service as jurors, although Delegate Webber of Miller county, secured the adoption of an amendment that mo woman shall be compelled to serve on any jury" There was only one vote against the genearl principle of equal ity of suffrage, and that was cast by Delegate E. P. Watson of Benton county. He introduced an amendment to strike out the phase Ion account of sex," from the clause granting suf- frage, and demanded roll call, but he was the only one who voted for it..
 A proposition by Delegate King of Sharp county, who declared himself an ardent suffragist, that women be barred from holding office, was given very little more support, there being only three votes for it, by Delegates Andrews, King and Watson.
 The convention also went on record as being in favor of quadrennial elec- tions, there being only six votes in favor of an amendment by Delegate Dodd of Sebastian to continue the biennial system. They were cast by Delegates Andrews, Brown, Dodd. Et- ter, Kay and King. A proposition by Delegate Bledsoe of Izard, to make the county elections biennial, and the state elections quadrennial received fourteen affirmative votes.
 Fewer elections and longer terms of office appears to be the policy of the convention.

FOURTH 0F JULY Is OBSERVED BY
 SMASHING HUNS
Australians, Americans, French, and Italians Take Part in the Celebration - Positions I'm proved.

By great surprise attack on the German lines, planned as celebration of American Independence Day, Aus tralian troops have wrested from the Germans the village of Hamel, east of Amiens, occupied Vaire and Hamel woods, south of the village, and cap tured more than 300 prisoners. The Australians advanced under cover O. a smoke barrage and were led by tanks in breaking the enemy's line over front of more than four miles, The attack penetrated a mile and a half into the German positions.
 The British war office has an nounced that American troops partici- pated in the attack This is the first time they have appeared in this part of the battle area.
 The French also have struck savage ly against the German lines, cutting through the enemy ranks near the town of Autrenches, south of Moulin -Toutvent, where Tuesday night they won a local success. and captured prisoners. Here the Germans lost L., 066 prisoners.
 In both operations the allies have improved their positions by gaining rather high ground which can be cas- fly defended if the Germans launch their expected offensive.
 At the same time that the British. French and Americans were attack ing the enemy, the Italians continued to advance in the area near the mouth of the Piave. Scattered machine gun emplacements have been cleaned out, while light beats from the Italian navy have entered the lagoons on the left flank of the Austrian armies and have given valuable assistance to the land forces.
 The Italians also have won ground in the San Lorenzo valley, east of the Brenta river.

KELLEY FIELD EAGLE
 IS LIVE WIRE PUBLICATION

Little Rock, July 5.-One of the best newspapers published for any branch of the military service, of which there are many in American cantonments and even in the trenches overseas, is the Kelley Field Eagle, the organ of the aviation section of the signal corps, South Antonio, Tex. It was established three months ago. and is live-wire publication brim full of news that is of interest to the soldier-fyer. It is five columns in size and varies from eight to sixteen pages. Especial interest attaches to it here because of the fact that Little Rock boy, a lawyer and former newspaper reporter, is the editor in chief. Lieut.. Tom Poe is responsible for the newsy and attractive appear ance of the publication.

adjustments, the sacredness of trea- ties and the organization of a league of peace. He further forestalled any offers of peace by compromise the central powers may make by announc- ing the purposes for which the United States is sending millions of it's men to the trenches may not be fulfilled around a council table.
 "These great ends cannot be achieved by debating" the president said; "they can be realized only by the determination of what the think ing peoples of the world desire, with their longing hope for justice, social freedom and opportunity"

 GREAT SUCCESS
Three Records Set By One of The Yards-New Reels Are Laid-Exact Number of New Vessels Not Yet Known.

Philadelphia, July 4.-The great Fourth of July splash of American ships which Charles RI. Schwab, di- rector general of the Emergency Fleet Corporation, said would re- echo in the ears of the German en- peror, took place today as planned by the shipbuilders of the United States. From one minute after F o'clock last night until late today cargo carriers and other type of ves- sels were sent overheard in every part of the country to help build the ocean bridge for the allied fight ing forces in Europe.
 Incomplete reports gave the num- bers of vessels sent voerboard as fifty-fve of which thirty-six were steel and the other nineteen wood.
 These figures do not include the launching of naval vessels which are being built directly under the super vision of the navy department. The exact numebr of launchings probably will not be known until tomorrow. The Union plant of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation made worlds re- cord by launching 47,S00 deadweight tons, represented by four ships in one yard in one day. A second record L.. one of the ships, the Defiance, 12,- 900 ton boat in thirty-eight days. Immediately after the launching six keels were laid, making a third re- cord.
 The largest boat launched was the Indianapolis, 12,500 tons at the Pusey and Jones yard, Gloucester, N. J.

President Declares Against a Peace by Compromise Must Destroy Every Arbitrary Pow CT That Can Disturb Peace.

Washington, July 4.-From the shadow of Washington's tomb, Presi- dent Wilson today offered America s declaration of independence to the peoples of the world with a pledge that the United States and it's allies will not sheath the sword until there is settled, "once for all," for the world what was settled for America in 1776.
 Foreign born citizens of the United States, 33 nationalities, who had placed wreaths of palms on the tomb in token of fealty to the principles laid down by the Father of His Coun- try, cried their approval of his words in many languages and then stood with reverently barred heads while the voice of John Mccormack scared over the hallowed grounds in the notes of the Star Spangled Banner"
 Washington and his associates. like the barons of Runnymede, spoke and acted, not for a class, but for = people" the president said. "It has been left for us to see to it that it shall be understood that they spoke and acted not for a single people only, but for all mankind. We, here in America, believe our participation in this present war to be only the fruitage of what they planted
 There can be but one issue. The settlement must be final. There car he no compromise.
 What we seek is the reign of law based upon the consent of the gov erned and sustained by the organized opinion of mankind" The presidents S crisp words, as he emphasized the least America will consider as a basis for peace, were interrupted by tu- mutt of applause and words of ap- proval in many languages. The de- monstration swept beyond the wall of khaki-clad marines to the thousands of Americans scattered over the hill side through the woods surrounding Washington's home.
 Elaborating the purposes for which the associated peoples of the world" are fighting, the president repeated his declaration that peace can be made only when the central powers agree to the destruction of militarism, the consent of the governed for all re-
