Constitutional Amendment
Passed by House After
Three-Hour Debate
RESOLUTION NOW
GOES TO THE SENATE
Vote in House Was 304 to
SO, or AZ More Than Nee
essary Two-Thirds

Washington, D. c., May 22.--With the
national woman suffrage amendment
passed for the second time yesterday by
the House, supporters of the measure to-
day were turning their attention to the
Senate ia an endeavor to increase the
slight margin of strength which the
amendment now is said to have in that
body, before it comes up for vote, prob
ably within the next three weeks.
Forty-two votes more than the neces-
sary two.t thirds we're cast in favor Of the
resolution in the House yesterday, show
ing marked increase in sentiment in
that body for equal suffrage since it last
voted on the measure Jan. 10, 1915, when
exactly the necessary two-thirds vote
was secured. Opposition was expressed
in the ballot by many southern Demo
Gratis and several New England Repub-
leans.
The party division in the vote showed
200 Republicans, l02 Democrats, one In
dependent and one Prohibitionist voting
for the resolution, while 20 Democrats
and 10 Republicans voted against it.
Only two amendments to the resolu-
ton were offered in the House and each
was defeated without roll call. Rep
resentative Clark proposed that it be
made necessary for state legislatures TO
complete ratification within seven years,
while Representative Sanders, Democrat,
Of Virginia proposed that ratification be
by the voters of the states instead Of by
assemblies

APPEAL FOR VICTORY GARDEN
Business Men of the Country Are Urged
to Back Movement.

Albany, N, Y, May 22.--An appeal to
the business men of the country to get
behind the victory garden" movement
was made at yesterdays session of the
education congress here by Charles Lath-
rop Pack, president of the national war
garden commission.
I'm the last three years" he said, "this
country has passed through the greatest
so-called back to the land movement it
ever experienced. Only it was mis-
named. 1t was not back to the land,
il was forward to the land That move
ment has made people of the cities and
towns see q vision Of happiness, indie
pendence and prosperity.
"The gate Of this prosperity and the
movement to get soldiers on to the land
Is through the garden. The soldier as a
unit win not 90 to the farm, but with
a job he win take the intermediate step,
which is farming ON small scale and
Jump at the chance to have garden of
his own. The educational value Of the
garden cannot be over estimated for the
garden is the cornerstone of all commu-
nifty effort and in that garden grows
Americanism"

REPUBLICANS AGAINST REPEAL.
All Measures Win Be Kept in COMMITTEES
Until After July /.

Washington, D. G., May 22- Notwith-
standing President Wilson's recommen-
dation for repeal Of war time prohibit
tion in so far as it relates TO wines and
beers, the opinion seemed to gain ground
at the capital yesterday that all repeal
measures would be kept in committee
until after July |.
In the meantime, however, prohibition
leaders planned TO enact the legislation
which failed at the last session, for en-
forcement Of the war time prohibition
act and the constitutional amendment.
Senator Sheppard, Democrat, Of Texas,
author of the war time act, said yester-
day he was confident enforcement leg
islation would be passed before July /.
Majority leaders, it was said. were not
disposed to hasten consideration Of re.
peal measure, nor were they impressed
with the argument that it might be we'll
to test out the saloon system from which
hard liquors are to be eliminated when
the whole country is to become dry by
constitutional amendment next year.
