service may go to the meetings and

service that has been rendered. but
there has also been some material aid

His attitude was made known in a
reply to a memorial from the French
Union for Woman Suf1'ra%" presented
to him by delegation frolh he AFneri-
can Woman Suffrage association. The
memorial asked him to proclaim the
principle of woman suffrage as one of
the fundamental rights of the future.
'It is my earnest hope" the presi-
dent said, 1.-The senate of the United
States will give an unmiS. aka:le ans
wer to this question by passing the
suffrage amendment TO the federal con-
stitution before the end of the ses-
sion"
Senate leaders have promised a
vote at this session, although efforts
90 bring the resolution up have failed
thus far.
Opponents of the measure have de-
because they lack two or three votes
necessary for it's adoption.
The presidents support was declar-
ed to have aided materially passage
of the resolution in the house in jan

Paris. June 1.-THE Germans on

The war office statement said the
Americans broke up the attack and
inflicted serious loses on the enemy,

The Germans, who had been told to
avoid capture because the Americans
would torture them, started to run
after the American machine gunners
had made the wood untenable, but the
artillery barrage was so perfect that
the Germans were cut off from escape.
Among the prisoners are six officers
q major. captain and four lieutenants,
All were poorly clad and some had
pieces of bread tied to their uniforms
with string.
The prisoners said they were glad
to be captured and several expressed

:lng made on American markets by the
constantly growing United States ar
