Quickly on Reservations.
Lid Is Put on Debate When Upper
Body Adopts Cloture Rule
Quick Action Follows.

Washington, Nov. 17.-At last
Camping down the lid on its peace
treaty debate, the senate substituted
action for discussion with vigor that
quickly advanced the ratification fight
into its final stages.
Working under cloture for the first
time In history, the senate adopted in
five hours 10 more of the reservations
written by the Foreign Relations COM
mittee. and with only two committee
proposals remaining, set the parlia-
mentary stage for q decision or q
deadlock on the treaty in few days
Tentative plans for. sine die adjourn
ment OF the present session Of con-
gress were made by senate and house
Republican leaders. BY resolutions N
the two bodies, it is proposed that the
house shall be permitted to adjourn
upon passage of the pending railroad
bill and the senate upon disposition
Of the peace treaty. g..
Reservation after reservation went
througt. the senate just as it came
from the committee. -;
Although many reservations pro-
'pose:4 by individual senators will come
to a vote after the committee list Is
finished. leaders on both sides were
confident that the end Of the treaty
fighC was a. question of a very few
days. The cloture rule means that
no senator can speak in oil more than
one hour between the time cl0ture

WANT $4,000 IN
BOY SCOUT DRIVE
Campaign for Funds Will
Start Here on Sunday
Continue One Week

Plans are being completed rapidly
for the campaign here during Boy
Scout Week, June to IA, when it
will be the aim of the local scout
organization here, assisted by Liberty
Loan workers, to secure at least
$4,000 so that scouting activities in
Perth Amboy may be kept to a high
decided benefit to the community as
a whole.
1t was announced this morning
that already more than fifty men
have signed up expressing their in
tention of cooperating with the local
citizens committee, with Adrian Lyon
at it's head, in putting this drive
across successfully and quickly. 1t is
the purpose of those in charge of
Boy Scout Week throughout the
country to link up with the local Boy
Scout workers the Liberty Loan or
ganization which proved so effective
in soliciting funds during the five
huge government bond flotations.
This is being done here, nearly all of
the loan workers consenting to serve
again and help out in the great Boy
Scout movement. From all indica-
tions in the preparations for the
campaign, Perth Amboy will not only
secure her share of the 100000 as
sociate members of national head
quarters that are desired, but go far
beyond the goal set for attainment.
Headquarters for the workers dur
ing Boy Scout week will be located at
the Board of Trade rooms and the
activities will be directed from there.
All those who are to do the canvass
ing are requested to meet at head
quarters Friday night when final in
will be issued and the liter
ature and equipment distributed.

WOMEN TURN TO
STATE FOR VOTE
Fight Won in Congress After
Efforts for Forty
Years
WASHINGTON,

WASHINGTON, June 5:-With
their fight in congress won after
nearly forty years of effort advocates
of women's suffrage today turned
their attention to the various state
legislatures, three-fourths of which
must ratify the constitutional amend
ment before victory can be won. The
senate late yesterday adopted the his
toric Susan B. Anthony constitutional
amendment resolution which the
House adopted May 21. The vote was
Sc to rs, two more than necessary.
There is division of opinion among
suffrage leaders whether the ratifica-
ton by the states of the proposed
amendment can be secured in time for
the women all over the country to
vote in the next presidential election.
Few state legislatures are now in ses-
sion and many including New Jer-
sey will not hold sessions until next
year.
Because of pressing business leg
islative sessions are expected to be call
ed in a number of states and the suf-
frage amendment will be considered.
Chief opposition to ratification is ex-
pected to come from the southern
states because of the entailed fran
chisement of negro women.
