Republican Women
e ct Suggestions
On How to Vote
Will Be on Trial in 1920
and Must Be Above Re-
proach, Mrs. Medill Nc
Cormick Says at Luncheon

The handmaidens Of the Republican
party must forswear feminine gossip
and take for their watchword "Say
nothing and saw wood"
This and other working orders were
laid down to the women Republicans of
New York State at a luncheon Of the
women's executive committee at the
Republican Club yesterday by Mrs.
Medill Mccormick, chairman of the Ma
tional Women's Executive Committee.
Women in politics will be on trial
as they never have been before, and it
is up to US to see to it that the per-
sonnel of the women who enter this
campaign is above reproach," said Mrs.
Mccormick, "If any speaker on your
list stoops to reply to personal charge
made against her by her enemies, if
she makes any personal remarks about
any other person, take her off your list
at once and never allow her to speak
for the Republican party again"
Mrs. Mccormick also decreed a
hands off, policy for members of the
executive committee in regard to poll
cies and candidates.
Business Is to Elect
"Your business as an executive COM
mlttee is to elect, not select" she
said. "You can take no action as q
committee, either to indorse or con-
demn any candidate or any issue of
the campaign. AS individuals you are
Tree to speak your mind on any ques-
ton, of course, but as COMMITTEES
you are to tend to your job, which is
to organize voters and elect candidates
of your party"
This order caused some confusion in
the minds of those present as to how
far personal liberty would be cur
tailed by working in the party har-
| ness.
This was explained after the meet
ing by George A. Glynn, chairman of
the New York Republican State Com
mittee.
Mary Garrett Hay member of the
Republican National Committee, who is
already working for the defeat of Sen
ator James W. Wadsworth in the pri-
maries, was asked how she would extri-
cate herself from the dilemma if Wads-
worth should happen to be nominated
in spite of the suffragists' protests.
I'm not worrying about that" she
laughed.
Chairman Glynn remarked nervously
that that was a hypothetical question
which could not be discussed.
Protection for Women Workers
The committee passed resolution in.
dorsing the principle of protective legis.
lation for women workers.
Mrs. Mccormick mapped out the
work for the coming summer, to in
clude house to house canvass Of vot-
ers, and the lishment of speakers
schools.
Mrs. Charles S. Whitman and Mrs
Arthur Livermore were appointed dele
gates to national conference of womer
Republicans to be held in Washington
soon.
Herbert Parsons and Chairman
Glynn also addressed the meeting.
The women present were Miss Hay
Mrs. Arthur Gleason, Mrs Luther
Mott, and the following members of tn,
executive committee: Mrs. Whitman
Mrs. Walter Damfosch, Mrs. william
Boyce Thompson, Mrs. J. Sloat Fassett
Mrs. Eli T. Hosmer, Miss Mary Cahoon
Mrs. Ruth Lift, Mrs. E. S. Knapp, Mrs
franklin Mason, Mrs. Annie De Witt
Mrs. Nathan Glauber and Mrs. H. C
Danforth.

Catholic Delegates Are Told
Leaders of State and
Nation Need Gods Help
to Perform Their Duties
Praise X. of C.. War Work
Major Byrne, of Red Cross,
Says Nation Must Fulfil
Democracy War Pledge

The substitution of prayer for criti-
cism was urged by Miss Elisabeth Mar
bury, first vice-president Of the League
of Catholic Women, at the annual
meeting Of the league, held in the
Maxine Elliott Theatre yesterday af-
ternoon and largely attended by promi-
nent Catholic women workers of New
York State. Sixty-Ave branches of the
league were represented.
~ wish we could become praying

better employed praying to God to
guide those who govern us in church
and state than in spending our time
reading of their limitations and short
comings in the newspapers and CRITICS.
ing them accordingly"
Referring in passing to the league of
nations Miss Marbury said:
There is no question that in this
peace we are facing some method has
got to be devised by which the weak
nations of the world are going to be
protected. The day of might over
right has passed, and the time has
come for the voice Of right to be heard
in our international relationships
X. of c. Work Praised
Major James Byrne, who has been in
Italy with the American Red Cross
Commission, said: "The knights Of
Columbus organization in four years Of
war arrived at stage of excellence
that in ordinary times it would have
taken a generation to reach. They
have been doing for Catholic America
what the Y. M. C. A. has been doing
for Protestant America.
"It is our task and duty now to see
that by the use of those liberties
which we have retained through the
gallantry of our soldiers we make this
world and our own country all that the
orators, writer's and statesmen of the
Allies have been promising if the war
were won. There must be harmony be-
tween our words and acts If no de-
mocracy lives in our souls, after all
our lip professions, then we shall stand
as unmasked hypocrites before those
who have trusted US.
Committed to Democracy
There are certain things to which
We have committed ourselves. We are
definitely committed to democracy and
the consequences of the warA Instead
of being harsh to smaller nations
whose views may not coincide entirely
with ours, we must treat them tenderly
as we would children-educate, train
and love them. The best of nations
are apt to err on the side Of pride
and arrogance. Charity and humility
are the virtues which we should exalt. "
Major Byrne vigorously refuted any
suggestion that the Church in Italy
had failed to back up the prosecution
of the war. 1t had been magnificent
ly helpful to the armies, he said, and
the refugees had been handled in re-
markable fashion through the agency
of the Church.
Monsignor M. J. Lavelle, rector of
ST. Patrick's Cathedral, who presided
at the meeting, paid tribute to the
work done by women during the war
No organization had thrown itself more
heartily into patriotic activities or
achieved better results than the New
York League of Catholic Women. he
said.

HAUL COMPLETED;
 RIVER RAILROAD
 BEING TAKEN UP

The calculations of the A. E. C. officials in the matter of the send ing of material and supplies across the river worked out correctly, and the last pound of freight was hauled across on the temporary railroad laid on the bed of the river. The work was completed just about in time, as the river ice is showing signs of weakness, espe- cially along the bank on the Nenana side, where the town sewers empty into the river.
 The salvaging gang, under Fore man Fred Douse, who have com pleted the work on the abandoned line, and came into town yesterday, were put on to take up the river line, but in view of the rapid dis integration of the ice, Douse's gang had to be reinforced by the gangs under Foremen Lee and Sullivan.
 The big American ditcher, which managed to get across the river just in time, operating on the farther bank, hooked on to a section of the river railroad and hauled it over to the sandbar. A stout steel cable was used for this purpose The section of the road along the Nenana side of the river bank was taken up by the Brown hoist.
 A short section of the track run ming along the farther shore, on a sandbar is still in service. This is being used to haul away the ma terial salvaged by the American ditcher. It is expected that this work will be completed in a few days more.

SAL LVAGING OVER
 ON OlD R. R. LINE

Everything that could possibly be salvaged from the abandoned rail- rod line south of town has now been taken up, and the gang en- ployed in this work, under Foreman Fred Douse came into town.
 The switch at the beginning of the D line has also been taken up and the trains now swing onto the D line on slight curve, no trace Of the old railroad leading to Bailey and beyond now remains except the abandoned grade, which now serves as roadway for fishermen and hunters seeking recreation and excitment in the woods streams and fields beyond.
 Fiji. creek bridge, near the be- ginning of the D line, was the last structure to be abandoned and the bents of piling now remain to mark the spot where the bridge had been.
 It is the intention of the Nenana Rod and Gun club to be to build a serviceable foot bridge on the piling across Fish creek tomorrow.
