|~SUFFRACISTS QUESTION
MISSISSIPPI SOLONS

JACKSON, Miss, June II. (Spl.)-
Leaders OF the woman's suffrage move
ment in Mississippi are preparing to
serve notice on legislative candidates
that they will be expected to declare
their position on the Susan B. Anthony
amendment prior to the August prima-
ries; that they are going to wage a
fight at the session Of the Legislature
In January for the adoption OF the
amendment, and aspirants for member
ship In that body must say frankly
whether they will support or oppose the
amendment.
An address to the legislative candi.
dates, appealing for their support, ana
politely but firmly asking for a state
ment of their position, Is now being
framed. and will be In the hands OF
each aspirant within the next two
weeks, accompanied by an envelope,
duly stamped and addressed, for the
reply.
The woman's suffrage leaders in Mis-
sissippi have never manifested a mill
tant spirit. but they have been steadily
growing in numbers In recent years,
and now have a formidable organization
covering all sections Of the state.
The submission Of the Susan b. An
thony amendment next January will be
Of especial interest because Of the fact
that the two United States senators
from Mississippi voted against 1t, hav-
ing failed to secure adoption of their
amendment specifically restricting suf-
frage to white women. 1t Is conceded,
of course, that many Of the lawmakers
will adopt the views as expressed by
Senators williams and Harrison, and II
the amendment fails Of adoption 1t will
be chiefly because Of the attitude adopt
ed by the two senators from this state.

New Exchange Telephone Rates
Effective June |, 1919

~T A new schedule of telephone exchange rates
which has been promulgated for Memphis by the
Postmaster General of the United States will be ef-
fective as of June |, 1919.
June bills were rendered at the old rates. The
accounts of those subscribers who have already paid
their June bills will be credited with the amount paid
and the balance unpaid will be included in the July
statements.
The new rates are necessary in order that addi-
tional revenue may be secured by the government to
meet the increased operating expenses. The causes
which make greater telephone revenue necessary are
due to the new conditions and the new price levels
introduced by the war and are entirely beyond the
control Of the United States Government or Of the
Telephone Company. ;
More than two years ago the company foresaw that the
telephone system would be operated at a loss unless the rates
could be adjusted to meet the increasing costs OF all elements
entering into the production Of service. If the government had
not assumed control of the property, the company would have
been forced to ask from the city authorities a modification of
its contract with the city of Memphis for the purpose of secur-
ing the rates which are now authorized by the Postmaster
General. .
Practically all of the increased operating expenses which
require this additional revenue are due to increased wages paid
to employees to enable them to meet the new conditions of life
in the present day. 1t is neither practicable nor desirable to
reduce wages, and so far as wages are concerned we believe that
portion of the increased operating expenses to be permanent.
The new rate schedule is fair and reasonable, and the per-
centage of increased revenue which it will produce is much lower
than the increased cost of other services and commodities of a
similar character. 4
Complete detailed information about the new rates may
be obtained at the managers office. We are making every eff
fort to change our records promptly and your courteous consid-
Grafton will be appreciated.

Good Taste in Dress

A most interesting and instructive
talk was given by Mrs. Catherine
GreibeI on Good Taste in Dress" on
Tuesday afternoon at the Woman's Gu"
meeting. She contended that it was
the wisest plan to always buy the best
you can, as it pays in the long run,
not meaning the extremely expensive
things, but of good wearing quality.
She spoke of fashion as being a busi-
ness and believes the practical woman
of to-day should not follow it, and that
the woman of to-day should dress &C
cordina to her environment, as for IN
stance, the woman living in the country
should not wear or have much very
thin clothing, tailored made suits or
low shoes, but plenty of use for good
warm coats, etc. Then there is the
right dress for the right woman which
we often see disregarded when a tall
woman wears the long stripes and high
hat trimmings and the short stout one
wearing ruffles and fullness which only
emphasizes her avordupois. Then one
should wear colors according to their
type, n not just the prevailing shade.
The Club is delighted to announce
that Mrs. Griebel will be back in Feb
ruary.
The next meeting will be on Novem-
Der 18th, a joint meeting with the
Mothers Club of Carneys Point, at the
duPont Club House. The speakers will
be Mrs. H. H. Clark, 1st District Vice
President; and Mrs. Anna Scott. cooking
| expert and food economist.
