WOMEN SIT WITH
REPUBLICANS in
PARTY JUBILEE
Admitted TO Inner Councils on
Proxies; Every State
Represented
BY associated Press

Chicago, Jan. 10. Two women
occupied seats in the Republican
National Committee at it's meeting
here to-day for the first time in the
history of the organization. They
were admitted to the inner councils
of the party on proxies and enjoyed
all rights of regular members. The
action is. taken to mean that here
after women will be urged to take
an active part in every branch of
National Republican politics.
They were Mrs. Josephine Corliss
Preston, of Washington, who held
the proxy of S. A. Perkins. national
committeeman from that state, and
Miss Mary Garrett May, of New
York, who held the proxy of Her.
bert Parsons, national committee
man from the Empire State.
The committee began it's all day
love feast session at 10 q. m. with
an executive business session. A roll
call showed that every state was
represented either by the national
committeeman or proxy.
Chairman Will FL. Hay ready a
lengthy report in which he reviewed
in detail his activities during his
first year in office and analyzed the
Republican victory at the congress
sional elections last November.
New members OF. the committee
were elected to fill vacancies in sew
eral states, as follows:
Maine, A. j. Sweet; New Jersey,
II. Il. Kean; Virginia, c. B. Slemp;
Wyoming, p. Sullivan.
Chairman Hays and other mem
bers of the committee discouraged
every attempt to boom candidates
for President. 1t was evident from
the informal gossip in the corridors
that there would be no scarcity of
candidates in 1920. In the matter of
campaign issues the committeeman
in informal discussions were out.
spoken in their criticism of the al
legged extravaganza of the National
Democratic administration, and a
majority seemed to favor the adopt
ion by the party at the proper time
of a strong declaration against So
cialistic policies, including the fed
eral ownership or operation of the
railroads and other public utilities.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1919-01-10

| every state will be represented by
the national committeeman or his
proxy.
Although Chairman Will II. Hays
declared that any discussion of can
didates for President was premature,
the party leaders in informal confer
ences last night discussed probable
candidates and issues. Among the
names mentioned in the gossip were:
General Pershing, General Wood,
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts,;
Senator Cummins, of Iowa; Senator
Knox, of Pennsylvania. Senator
Harding, of Ohio; William Fl Taft,
Senator Watson, of Indiana. Cover
nor Lowden, of Illinois; former Gov
ernor Whitman, of New York; Sena-
tor Weeks. of Massachusetts,; Gov
ernor-elect Henry ]. Allen. of Kan
sas, was mentioned as a possible can
didate for Vice-President by his
friends.
The two issues most frequently
mentioned in the gossip were an at
tack on the alleged extravaganza of
the national Democratic administra-
ton and strong declaration against
Bolshevism and Socialistic doctrines,
including government ownership or
operation of the railroads and other
public utilities. Il
The committee has but little busi-
ness to transact at it's meeting. The
program is for an executive business
session this morning at which reso-
lutions on the death of Colonel
Roosevelt are to be adopted. The
election of national committeeme en-
in several states to fill vacancies and
the settlement of contest over the
national committeemanship from
Louisiana are the only other items
of business scheduled. The commit
tee Will have luncheon with the
Woman's Executive Committee OF
the party.
This afternoon the. committee will
listen to addresses by Governor
Beeckman, of Rhode Island; Cover
nor Burnquist, of Minnesota; Cover
nor Mckelvie, of Nebraska, and Mrs.
Medill Mccormick, of Illinois. The
latter Will report on plans of the
women to take an active part in the
national affairs of the party in the
future.
Committeeman Fred Stanley, of
Kansas, and Committeeman Hubert
Work, of Colorado, predicted that all
the former Republican states in the
west would be back in line in 1920. |
Committeeman A. T. Hert, of Ken |
lucky. said the indications pointed
to that state going Republican in the
next Presidential election.
The meeting here to-day was re-
garded as epochal in that 1t was
the first time that women had a |
part in forming plans for a national
campaign. Chairman Hays said
party leaders had wrought optimis- |
tic reports of party prosvects in |
their sections and that these indi-

RED FLAG FLIES
FOR SKATING
AT WILDWOOD
'Snappy Cold Wave Does Not
Bring Expected Zero
Weather

The red flag which signifies that
skatin ON the Wildwood lake is safe
for large crowds. was flying mer-
rily from the Union Trust Building
this morning and this afternoon
dozens of lovers of the outdoors
were braving the cold and enjoying
themselves at Wildwood. There has
been skating all week, but the Park
Department did not feel that the
lake was safe for large crowds until
after last nights cold.
The zero temperature whihh was
predicted for last night did not ar
rive, twelve degrees being the low
est registered. However, the fact
that veritabl gale blew all night,
made 1T seem much colder than it
was.
The gale and cold wave are
spread over the entire country and
in some places the velocity of the
wind reach 76 miles an hour. The
cold wave move drapidly eastward
along the northern boundary and
now covers all the northeastern dis
tricts. A temperature of two
twenty-four degrees covers practic-
ally all the territory south and east
OF the great lakes. The lower tenn
perature reported to-day was -
derees below zero, which was at
Manitoba.
The cold wave is being followed
by disturbance from western Can
ada, which is now in the Middle
west. and which will bring rise ir
temperature of from to "a degrees
| with likelihood of snow. Ligh
snow fell last night in some part
of Pennsylvania, New York, ant
Upper st. Lawrence Valley.
The shivering temperatures an,
cold caused many to get out extr;
garments and wraps last night, an,
covers and comforts were piled higl
on beds throughout the city. Thos
who were abroad all night declare,
that the piercing winds were tn
caus eof the greatest discomfort
making the temperature seem yer,
much colder than any that wer
| really registered.

Flushing appeals to New Workers.
This seems evident from the many
sales that have been made recently to
persons living In this city. Many Of
these buyers wanted suburban place.
not alone near Manhattan. but also
easily and quickly reached, and as
Flushing afforded such advantages the
demand for homes there is steadily
increasing.
In spite of the large increase Of
material prices there has been consid-
cradle activity at Flushing. One of
the interesting features Of this is the
many residents who are building larger
homes or selecting new locations.
The prices received for discarded
houses are sufficiently large in many
cases to take care Of the new construc-
tion costs.
Flushing on the Hill is section
