Jersey Women Out
To Beat Baird for
Opposing Suffrage
"Help Hennessy" Is Slogan

10000 in Battle
Campaign Wiz Be Made
Through the Democratic
Candidates Manager

Through its New Jersey state branch,
che National American Woman Suf-
frage Association is in fight to the
finish against Senator David Baird, of
New Jersey. an sufragist, it was
announced yesterday by Miss Rose
Young, Of the national organization IT.
is the policy of the national associa-
tlon TO tight against candidates on the
suffrage issue and not for any candi-
date, but, as Baird has only. one op-.
ponent, the situation resolves itself
into dep Hennessy" campaign. and
the suffragists therefore Will do their
Campaigning through the campaign
manager Of MIR. Hennessy.
Mrs. Z. f. Feickert, the Jersey state
leader is leading the fight" said Miss
Young. and she brings to the battle
hne 100000 women who want to see
Senator Baird defeated because of his
anti suffrage vote in the Senate where
by he refused President Wilson'S .ap-
peal for the amendment as war meas
ure, repudiated Governor Edge. who
appointed him on q win-the-war basis,
and deted the Repub. state plat
dorm which lndorsed the Federal
Speaking for her organization, Mrs.
Felckert says:
There are many reasons why the
differing attitudes o. Senator Baird
and eX~State Senator Charles O'Connor
Hennessy on the suffrage question
serve as fair test OF the stand which
val be taken on other important war
measures by the two cand. dates for
the remainder of Senator Hughes's un-
EXPIRED term. When Mr. Baird was
appointed TO serve until the November
slectlon 1T was announced that he had
been made Senator on condition that
he wou d support President Wilson'S
war policies
The record of Mr.. Baird's opponent,
Charles O'Connor Hennessy, of Bergen
County, is one Of conscientious en-
deavor and accomplishment He served
th State of New Jersey IN the Assem-
bly, and State Senate from 1912 to 1917,
and the record of these years shows
that during that time he invariably
stood for progressive legislation and
IN strong opposition to the selc-ap-
pointed boss of the Democratic party,
James R. Nugent. He stood by the
measures of Governor Wilson in Tren-
ton, and we believe he will also firmly
uphold the measures of President Will
son in Washington"
Nearly every official in the National
American oman Suffrage Association
is scheduled to go over into Jersey to
help Hennessy" during the next fort
night. Never was Senatorial candi-
date the storm centre OF as much in
cerest among sufragists as that VIII ch

Smith Declares for
Utility OWNERSHIP
In Church Speech
If Good During War, Right

f.
Candidate Asserts

Alfred z. Smith. Democratic csfdf-
date for Governor. last night made a
campaign speech at the Church Of the
Ascension. Fifth Avenue and Tenth
Street. He was introduced by George
Gordon Battle, member of the con
gregation and prominent in local Dem
ocratic politics
Mr.. Smith started by saying he be-
lieved in the state fixing the hours OF
labor of women and children and in
the establishment of boards to ak
minimum wages for all workers
Referring to schools, he said the
educational facilities ehould be the
best the state could afford. He criti-
cised the Whitman administration for
''its entire lack of understanding OF
our rural school system"
"An impetus has been given to the
question of municipal ownership and.
operation" he continued, "by the ac-
ton of the Federal government in tax
ing over the railroads and the tele-
graph and the telephone. We are told
that action was predicated on the the
ory that a maximum of efficiency
comes by governmental ownership
during war time. low can any argu-
ment prevail that, at any other time,
the people are not entitled to the same
degree of efficiency? ?"
Tonight, if the Commissioner of
Hea tn permits, Mr.. Smith will speak
in Haverstraw. Tomorrow night he
will speak in Ithaca. No other dates
have been made for the remainder of
the week, which he is confident he will
spend upstate. Most of the towns and
cities so far decided upon as likely
places were found to have placed q
ban on public gatherings because OF
Spanish Influenza
A letter from Franklin D. Roose-'
welt, Assistant Secretary of the Navy,
who championed Mr.. Smiths opponent
in the primaries, William Osborne. in
dorsing Smiths candidacy, was made
public last night.
Mayor Hylan tonight will speak in
Mr.. Smiths behalf at the headquar-
ters of the Business Mems League, Is
East Fortieth Street.
Beginning at noon to-day, Tammany
will send her flying squadrons OF
speakers to busy corners and to fac
tories that all who stop and listen may
hear sung the praises of Mr. Smith
and his running mates. Yesterday Mr..
Smith addressed the men who will
make up the flying squadrons at Tam
many Hail.

w omen Study Duty
Az Polls, Expecting
Right to Vote Soon

Getting ready for the vote that
they ex1ect will be theirs by the Fed
sral amendment route, Connecticut
sutfraglsIs have just launched a cam
paign to cooperate with Republicans
and Democrats in getting the women
Of the state instructed, lined up and
even organized into party groups.
Miss Katharine Ludington, Who was in
New York over the week end, told this
story yesterday.
So far the Democrats have been the
only party to accept the sutrragists'
invitation to come in and make con-
verts among their SO, 600 members.
Miss Ludington said, but the Connec-
tcut Woman Suffrage Association is
hoping for recognition soon from the
Republicans in power in Connecticut,
Tor hzr organization is non-partisan
and does not wish to give even the
appearance Of lining up with one party
only.
Miss Ludington's invitation went out
IN exactly the same. terms to both
parties. She suggested to party lead
ers three methods Cf getting their
case before the women of the C. w.
5. A. These were the distribution of
leaflets designed especially TO meet
the questions that rise in women's
minds regard ng political measures,
pald advertising IN newspapers carry
ing their appeal to women, and a cam
paign of speaking to the audiences of
women as gotten up by the suffrage
association.
THE Democrats have seized upon
the plan and are working it hard" said
Miss Ludington. But so far our Re-
publican LEADERS, have not seen fit to
recognize women. We have hopes, but
no promises, of getting them to take
up the plan too. The door is still
open and our women are theirs to
appeal To. The Democratic women are
already organized in Hartford and New
Haven

o-.itics and Society
Mix in Newberry Fight
By Charles T. White

DETROIT. Oct. 20.--Frank W. Blair,
Allan A Temp'eton and Thomas p.
Phillips, held under their oral bond in
$4,000 each by Judge Henry D. Clay
ton, of the United States District
Court in New York City, because they
refused to testify with reference to
expenditures of the Newbe~ry Cam
palgn Committee. and the other wit
nesses-Paul R. King. chairman o. the
Newberry committee; Robert and Mil
ton Oakman. j. A. Hopkins Guy L. In
gals, IL. A. Hopkins and Paul l.. Daley
are back in Detroit.
They hold to their original convic-
tons that the inquiry was instigated
pure'y from political motives and that
back of it all are William F. Connolly,
former judge of the Recorders Court
Democratic National Committee for
Michigan and Democratic candidate for
Mayor of Detroit; Henry Ford and
THE Detroit News" crowd" headed by
:. Booth, publisher of the pape~-all
o. whom are backing Ford for United
States Senator.
Part of the background of the fight
is social jealousy. The Newberrys are
old-fashioned leaders of Detroit So
clety. Some of the most energetic So
cia rivals of Commander Newberry are
in the Ford camp.
Newbcrry sought the Republican
nomination for United States Senator
in the August primaries and beat Ford
by $4,000 votes although it is esti-
mated that about 80 900 Democrats,
marshalled by "3oss" Connolly, entered
the Republican primary and voted for
Ford M iphicon &c I1x pop,,h1;
can by at least 100 600.
The campaign of advertising for
Commander Newberry. costing $176,-
600, was one of the most rem rkable
in the history of Michigan politics.
The law was rigid'y observed by the
Newberry campaign committee In
none of this advertising was any men

Straw Vote Shows
Whitman Easy Winner

In straw vote taken on the Empire
State Express or four trips ont of New
York City last week Governor Whitman
scored a two-to-one victory over Alfred
E. Smith. The total vote gave Whit
man 610 to 297 for Smith, for the
Socialist candidate. Erwin. and 16 to
Johnson. prohlbitionist
The Governor was almost a three
to-one favorite with the women, Smith
getting but II to 1873 cast by the
newly enfra nchiseo sex for Whitman.
An interesting incident was that the
fourteen negro walters on the dining
car voted for the Governor.

tion made of any candidate but Com
mander Newberry, who Was contin-
uously in New York, in charge Of q
large and important branch of the
naval administration.
Two weeks before the primary cam
paign ended Luren D. Dickinson. Re-
publican Lieutenant Governor, made
public a letter he had written to Com.
mander Newberry, calling the atten-
ton of the Commander to the rumor
the vast amounts of money were be-
the candidate to repudlate the COM
mittee handling his candidacy and
their methods of campaigning.
The communication was quickly fol
lowed by a statement by Paul H. King
chairman of n, Newberry campaign
committee, in which he estimated that
the committees expenditures would
reach $150,00O.
In Michigan the Newberry commit
tees expenditures caused no more ex-
citement or discussion than any other
item Of the political news of the day
The consensus of opinion here in De-
troit is that "The Nows"- through
the fear that Henry Ford. either in
dependent.y or in conjunction with
William R. Hearst, would establish
another Detroit newspaper. as Bris-
bane has established one in Wisconsin
and as Hearst recently acquired an
other one in Chicago-decided to sup

inhntesimal, but the tenor again dis
played his extraordinary natural quail

least displeasing, but in wha ever he
attempted the glorious quality of his
