ARE THE WOMEN STACKING?

Are the women of Mishawaka
Stacking on their Red Cross
work That such is really the
case is the very decided opinion
OF one Of those who has done
and is doing her bit in a way
TO prove her 100 per cent Ameri-
canism. She states that the ses-
sions held by local workers at
present are attended by only a
very few, and that TO those few
is left the burden Of the work
SO urgently needed by the Red
Cross. While the women of the
city started in well, and while
their record was one which did
infinite credit to Mishawaka,
they have ceased attending the
working sessions, with the re-
suit that the few loyal and pa
triOtic ones have had to assume
the responsibility Of filing the
demands required Of the city as
a whole. 1 { is charged that these
Red Cross slackers have fallen
back 10 the point where they
prefer an afternoon game Of
cards or a JOY ride in preference
TO helping their Uncle Samuel
at this critical juncture in his
history Some OF the blame is
being placed on church organi-
cations. although il is admitted
that not all of the churches are
included I'm the indictment.
It is to be hoped that every
woman interested in the win
ming of the war. and in the com
fort of the soldiers now fighting
their battles in France. will at
once get into the game again
and TO some extent at least re-
lieve those few energetic work
ers who are giving unspairingly
of their time 10 this great fea-
ture Of war necessity.

TITUS SPEAKS At
OSCEOLA CHURCH
Demonstration Marks Address
to Penn Township Resi-
dents tuesday Evening.

Extraordinary enthusiasm mark
ed the appearance in Osceola Tues
day evening Of the Rev. G. W. Titus,
Mishawaka's fighting parson,' who
spoke there in the interests OF :he
fourth Liberty loan. Rev. Titus CAV
an address that held his listeners
spell bound. with the result that the
Penn TOWNSHIP workers will start
out afresh to put the township over
the top. Judge G.. A. Farabaugh OF
South Bend spoke briefly. Town
ship and City Chairman NJ. w. Mix
accompanied the speaker to Osceola.
Interest in the campaign is grow
ing. The great parade next Friday
evening is expected 10 prove a cli-
max TO the drive here and put the
volunteer drive over with a rush.
Reports already show that the fac
tory campaign will bring unbeliev-
able results. most Of the depart
ments in the large factories having
gone 100 percent already. Enthus-
iasm among the employees is un-
bounded, and the subscriptions have
come in rapidly, without any So
licitation whatever.
The huge honor board being erect
ed on the corner opposite the head
quarters is progressing splendidly.
and has already had a direct effect
on the campaign. 1t has shown
Mishawaka and Penn township peo-
pie that they cannot afford TO al
low the honor roll 20 go up without
their names appearing on it. 1t is
likely that the board will not hold
all the names, judging from the sub
scriptions that have already been
made.
Liberty loan workers are busily
engaged in completing plans for the
volunteer days. Booth workers have
been selected and are ready TO take
their place at o'clock Saturday
morning TO remain until midnight
and from o'clock Sunday until
Mishawaka is well over the top.

BALL BAND BOOTS ARE
POPULAR IN FRANCE

That the Ball Band boots are as

SUFF RACE HAS
VOTE To SPARE
LEADERS CLAIM
Predict Passage of Amend
ment by Senate-Ap-
pointeeS Hold Balance.

INTERNATIONAL y
WASHINGTON, Sept 25.-Ihe
suffrage situation In the senate to-
day is practically the reverse Of that
existing when the Susan B. Anthony
bill last came up for action in the
senate in June.
The vote on the amendment IL
scheduled for tomorrow. Suffragists
claim a majority Of half a vote when
refusing q pair 70 the late Sen. Ollie
James. who was i'll AT a hospital
in Baltimore. they permitted a post
ponement of the vote.
Today the anti contingent in the
senate Is refusing a pair for Sen.
La Toilette. a -suffragist. who Is
at the bedside Of his son in Cali
fornia.
Pair Not Authorized.
The pair is an arrangement by
which the vote OF an absent sena-
tor may cancel the vote Of another
absent senator of the opposite view,
or Of a senator who is present, if
one who is willing TO enter such an
agreement may be found. There is
nothing in either the house or SEN
ate rules that recognizes the practice
Of pairing. II is a personal arrange
ment between members, through
which the absence of a member is
not permitted to initiate against
any bill he favors or 10 assist in the
passage of any bill he is against.
The practice Of pairing has been
condemned by all legislative reform
ers. but it still remains so general
that pair clerks are employed by
both democrats and republicans in
both houses
Since a two-thirds majority is
necessary to pass a constitutional
amendment two pro-suffrage votes
are necessary 10 cancel one anti
suffrage vote in a pair Such pairs
are dif1cult TO arrange.
Refuse Arrangement.
Under instructions from their
leaders democratic pair clerks to-
day refused 70 arrange a pair for
the absent Wisconsin senator. One
other pro-suffragist would be COM
PEELED to enter the pair with La
Toilette to cancel an anti-vOte even
II the pairs were granted.
When the suffrage supporters re
fused 10 pair to Sen Ollie James in
June. recognizing that TO allow it
would defeat their amendment. Sen.
Reed Of Missouri led a fiibuster
against the measure and the suf-
fragists did nothing TO break It. al
though they had the power 10 do so
had they considered such a course
wise
Suffrage senators said today there
would he no repetition Of these tao
tics. even if la Toilette is not pair
ed. when the time for the vote is
reported tomorrow. They believed
they had sufficient votes 70 pass the
amendment even without the La
Toilette pair
AppOintees Hold Balance.
Senator's appointed 10 succeed
mem bers who have died during the
present session of congress. hold the
balance Of power on the suffrage
amendment. All have been careful
TO restrain from expressing their
preferences. although they have
been lobbied by both factions on
suffragists and the ants almost
daily.
Both factions are laying claim to
the votes Of Sens. Drew of New
Hampshire. Beet Of South Carolina
and Martin of Kentucky. but neither
is asserting its claim with any de-
gree Of confidence.
