When he awoke the next morning,

He tapped on the window and called

POLICE GET TIP
HALT PAINT JOB.
PatrOlmen on Hand To Nab Two.
Men Who Began Spiashing OF
Yellow Saturday Night.

After obtaining a tip late Satur-
day night the local police kept a
close lookout in the vicinity of a
local restaurant for persons who
were expected to do some splashing
of yellow paint as a penalty for al
legged disloyal remarks said to have
been made by the proprietor of the
establishment.
The vigil was not held in vain
for two men, said to have been in
the uniform of the United States
army, dashed a few splotches of
yellow paint over a window of the
restaurant The police state that
this act was no more than perpe-
trated when, the men were taken in
by tow by Patrolman Durham.
They were taken to the police sta
ton where their names were OBJ
tanned, and they were then re-
leased.
Names of the men are withheld
by the police, who state that no
action will be taken against them
unless the restaurant owner so re
quests.
The men told the police that they
had been informed of the alleged
disloyaI remarks and had decided
to do the painting. They likewise
said that in case further investiga-
ton bears out the truth of their
information they will do the work
up in good shape at some future
date

what the plain, struggling, WOrk-a-
day folk are thinking upon whom
the chief terror and suffering OF
this tragic war falls. They are
looking to the great, powerful, ia
nous democracy of the west to
lead them TO the new day for which
they have so long waited; and they
think, in their logical simplicity,
that democracy means that women
shall play their part in affairs
alongside men and upon an equal
footing with them. If we reject
measures like this in ignorant de-
fiance of what new age has

Must Give Women Rights.
Are we alone to refuse to learn
the lesson, are we alone to ask ard
take the utmost that our women
can give-service and sacrifice of
every kind-and still say we do not
see what title that gives them to
stand by our sides in the guidance
Of the affairs of their nation and
ours?
We have made partners Of the
women in this war; shall we admit
them only to a pa. tnership of suf-
fering and sacrifice and toll and
not to a partnership of privilege
and right? This war could not
have been fought either by the 9TH
er nations engaged or by American
if it had not been for the services
of the women-services rendered in
every sphere-not merely in the
fields of effort in which we have
been accustomed to see them work,
but wherever men have worked and
upon the very skirts and edges of
the battle itself. We shall not only
be distrusted if we do not enfran-
chise them with the fullest posi-
BILE acknowledgements, as it is now
certain that the other great free
nations viii enfranchise them We
cannot isolate our thought and &C

THE women of America are too
noble and too intelligent and too
devoted to be slackers whether you
give or withhold this thing that is
mere justice; but | know the magic
it will work in their thoughts and
spirits if you give it to them. 1
propose it as I would propose to
admit soldiers to the suffrage, the
men fighting in the fields for our
liberties and the liberties of the
world, were they excluded The
tasks of the women lie at the very
heart of the war, and I know how
much stronger that heart will beat
if you do this just thing and show
our women that you trust them as
much as you in fact and of neces-
sity depend upon them.
Vital to Winning War.
Have I said that the passage of
this amendment is a vitality neces-
sary war measure, and do you need
further proof? Do you stand in
need of the trust of other peoples
and of the trust of our own wo-
men? Is that trust an asset or is
it not? l tell you plainly, as the
commander-in-chie of our armies
and of the gallant men in our fleets,
as the present spokesman of tits
people in our dealings with the men
and women throughout the world
who are now our partners, as the
responsible head of a great govern
ment which stands and is ques-
toned day by day as to its purposes,
hot he
they be seryiceabIe to men every
where or only to itself, and who
must himself answer these ques-
tions or be shamed, as the guide
and director of forces caught in the
gIip of war and by the same token
in need of every material and spir-
itual resource this great nation
possesses tell you plainly that
this measure which I urge upon you
is vital to the winning of the war
and to the energies alike of prepar-
alton and Of battle
Not Only Vital to War.
And not to the winning of the
war only. 1t is vital to the right
solution of the great problems
which we must settle, and settle
Immediately. when the war is over
We shall need them in our vision
Of affairs, as we have never needed
them before, the sympathy and in

the women of the world. The
problems of that time VIII strike
to the roots Of many things that
we have not hitherto questioned,
and l for one believe that our safe
ty in those questioning days, as
well as our comprehension of mat
tiers that touch society to The quick
will depend upon the direct and
authoritative participation of
women in our cOunsels. We shall
need their moral sense TO preserve
what is right and fine and worthy
in our system of life as well as to
discover just what it is that ought
to be purified and reformed. With
