OPPOSE RAISING
 OF BLOCKADE

Paris, Thursday, Feb. 6-(By the Associated Press) - Captain Andre Tardieu, one of the French represent atfves on the commission on the So- ciety of Nations, announced tonight that the program for the society will be ready some time next week. He said also:
 France Is opposed to the raising of the blockade on raw materials against Germany until her damage to French industries has been made good. Germany was responsible for the destruction of one-third of the factories of France, and. if allowed to resume production with equal facili- ties, 1t will be serious economic handicap for us."
 Captain Tardieu expressed the be- lief that the Allies would not disagree with the contention of France. He added that the blockade committee advocates the raising of the raw material embargo against neutrals al the earliest possible date, with the understanding that materials are not to be re-shipped to Germany.

GRATEFUL FOR COLD WATER
Thlrsty Fighters Went on Their Way Blessing the Theughtfulness of
 That Red Gross Worker.

There was plenty of water in X, but a tin mug of 1t was more deadly than a German machine gun. It's impossi- ble to push two or three hundred thou sand soldiers back and forth over a locality, especially when half of them are Germans and there isn't time to clean up after they have been de feated, and keep the water supply un- affected. And when, as Is the case often, the water wasn't very pure to begin with, it's not at all wise to daily with the idea of drinking it. But what can you do when you've been out all day fighting and pursuing Germans and your canteen's empty and the roof of your mouth feels like vulcanized sCrubbing board?
 That's the thought that came to a Red Cross field service man during the hottest fighting in August It was hot in two senses The bullets flew and the sun melted. And the Red Cross man took out his largest mar mite and filled 1t with water that was cool and purified. He kept it full all day and every soldier that passed that way had a drink of water It was water they wanted just then A little initiative on the part of one man made the soldiers as he himself put it lab surdly grateful" But after struggling across fields and roads all day in the hot sun, well-well men do become ab surdly grateful for a drink of cool water.-From a Red Cross Scrapbook.

WOMEN'S VOTES INCREASE COST OF POLLING PLACES

The Connecticut State Association opposed to Woman Suffrage would call to the attention of your readers the following fact:
 In New York at the last election, with only 30 per cent. of the women voting, the extra cost of election to the state was $2,7OO,Oo0 and with the result that the socialistic vote was doubled 100 per cent. and Tammany was once more in power. (Women voting having purified politics.")
 In California where women were given the vote on October 10, 1911, the Los Angeles Times of Sept. 26, 1914, prints in despatch from Sao- ramento as follows; California citi- zens will pay approximately $1,637,- 500 for the privilege of exercising the right of suffrage this year. This is an increase of 13S per cent. since 191O." The above amount was exclu- sive of city, county and special cleo tions. California also had the highest
 
 state in the union at that time.
 In Chicago in 1913 (the year be- fore women were given partial suf- frage) the cost of elections was $385,- 954; but in 1917 the election board asked for s1,305,0 ,00O. Chicago has double the number of polling places 1t had before women voted. These figures are quoted purposely prior to the war, so that the high cost of ev- erything during the war is eliminated.
 Suffrage at the polls has met IS defeats in five years; and gained Il victories in 25 years. Is Suffrage going or coming? New York state would have voted down the woman suffrage bill had it not been for the pacifst-socialistic vote in New York city which imposed woman suffrage on the state; its strength was shown at the last election.
 What has 1t meant to our promi- nent politicians who have come out publicity for equal suffrage?
 It spelled defeat for Roosevelt when he recognized and used Jane Addams as a political asset; Charles l Hughes met hlS Waterloo when ne i came out against his party's platform | for the Susan B. Anthony Force Bill simply because Mrs. Catt gave him some false data about the womer voting solidly for him together witt 1 the Golden SpeciaW; Charles Whit. man went back to private life with z thud, after working hard for woman suffrage, only to be turned down b5 Tammany and Socialism.
 As the franchise is used as matter of expediency, does it seem just, ex i pedient, or even progressive to gran votes to women, the large majority O
 whom do not want or use the vot after possessing same?
 | (Signed and sent by Mrs. Clarenc
 B. Bolner, Chairman of State Pres Committee, Conn. State Association
 Opposed to Woman Suffrage.)
