The law reads as follows: "All
women of 81 years and upwards
can vote for presidential electors,
county surveyors, county con-
stables and for all officers Of
cities, villages and towns, except
police magistrate and city JUS
tees Of the peace, and upon all
questions or propositions submit

except police magistrate and JUS
tees Of the peace. She may vote
on all questions coming before
the people relating to municipal

They can not vote for state Of
ficers except superintendent of
schools nor any of the PROPOSE

express their conviction on cleo

AMERICAN Army
OF 100000 TO.
100000 URGED
GENERAL WOOD
Military Opinion Is Unani-
nous Abroad That Ger
man Offensive Will Fail
WANTS AMERICAN
PROGRAM SPEEDED
Says French Are Disap-
pointed At The Size of
Our Army in Europe
~ Assoclated Press.l

1 a
Washington, March 26.-Back from
visit to the western battle front,
Major General Leonard Wood, in a
confidential statement before the SEN
ate military committee, declared that
military opinion is unanimous that
the German offensive will fail, and
urged a great increase-to 100000
or 100000 men in Americas army.
1t was General Woods opinion, ac-
cording to has auditors, that the Ger
mans on the western front now are
numerically superior, both on the
ground and in the air, but that the
allies are in q. better position. While
confident that the German offensive
will be halted before the enemy has
gained any material detectives, Gen
eral Wood suggested that the
offensive may change the warfare in
to a more open contest. Therefore he
recommended training American
forces for open warfare as we'll as
for trench fighting.
The general discussed the situation
in Europe, and at home. Stating that
the French are disappointed in the
size of the American army thus far
in Europe, he recommended immedi-
ate steps to increase both the Am
erican expeditionary forces and the
army in training in this country.
Chairman Chamberlain said General
Wood recommended that any army Of
900, 900 men in France at the earli-
est possible moment and 100000
more in training at home. Another
committee member placed General
Woods recommendation at 100000,
one-half in France as soon as posi-
Bile. General Wood also recommend
ed compulsory universal military
training.
f. Urges Speeding Up.
In urging that the American war
program Of men, ships and munitions
be speeded up and increased, General
Wood said no American artillery or
airplanes are yet available to Gen
eTal PershinR's men, and that
although 1000 American aviators are
ready, they are without planes. Use
of Liberty motors in bombing instead
of lighting machines also was recon-
mended by General Wood.
Commenting on the German often
sive, General Wood, according to
members of the committee said,
although the initial success of the
Germans probably had been greater
than expected either by allies or
enemy, judged by the British guns
reported captured. he and allied Off
GERS believe the drive will be short
lived. There is no possibility, he
said. of the Germans obtaining their
apparent objective, the channel ports,
or threatening Paris. .- - --.-
The general has some criticisms
to make and many ideas, said Sena-
tor Chamberlain. He felt that the
American industrial program should
be pushed. He thought also that
more raw materials might be sent
abroad to be manufactured in France
