WOMEN VOTERS OF
ARDMORE TO HELP
SHAPE NEW CHARTER

Ardmore women are looking for
ward with more than usual inter-
est to the citizens mass meeting
to be held in Convention Hall
Thursday evening to take action in
regard to securing a new city char
ter. Since the inception OF the
new charter talk the women have
looked forward eagerly to the pos
sibility OF an election because It
will give them their first opportu-
nifty Of casting ballot in a regular
political election.
Those people who have given this
matter considerable thought are
particularly gratiiied that their first
vote shall be separated from the or
dinary trend OF politics and con
fined to municipal question. One
OF the chief features OF the pro-
posed new charter will be to, in
so far as possible, avoid partisan
politics and to put city admins
tration strictly on a business basis.
This proposal appeals particularly
to women because women are more
inclined toward tangible results and
economy and efficiency OF admins
tration than they are to consider
the partisan phase OF such matters.
The citizens committee is issu-
ing the call ior this meeting ap-
pointed Miss Daisy Nichols as
chairman OF a committee to select
her own assistants and to make a
special effort to bring out large
attendance of women. The women
are being asked not to come mere
" to grace the meeting by their
presence but to take an active part
and to state their attitude toward
civic problems.
The committee states that they
expect a very large crowd at the
convention hall tpr this mass meet
ing. The hour OF meeting IS set
for 7:3O and in order that people
will be reminded of the event, the
mayor has been requested to have
the siren whistle sounded at I:Zo.

WORLD supply OF FOOD
ENOUGH/TO MEET NEEDS
IF IT'S DISTRIBUTED

London Jan. l5.-An official state
ment has been issued here relative
to the meeting of the supreme coun-
Gil Of supply and relief held at the
ministry OF commerce in Paris on
Monday. 1t follows, in part:
"A statement was before the cOun-
Gil summarizing the present posi-
ton of relief work in regard to Bel
gium, northern France, southeastern
Europe and northern Europe. Reso-
lutions were adopted respecting the
appointment OF committees repre-
sentative OF the four associated gov
ernments to supervise arrangements
in certain districts.
"Generally speaking, the position
in regard to the allied and liberated
territories is that there is a sufficient
world supply OF food available TO
meet their needs and that all pos
siblc steps are being taken to ascer-
tain and meet them and solve the at
tendant financial and transportation
questions"

SOLDIERS DISARMING
SPARTACANS IN BERLIN
INDUSTRIAL SUBURBS

Berlin Tuesday, Jan. A. C2:40
p. mD-Troops have been thrown
around the suburb Of Moabit one Of
the most important industrial sec
tions in Greater Berlin to carry out
the disarming Of civilians and such
Spartacan fighters as still are at lib
erty. The military measure, which
is being carried out in the most
drastic manner, came in the nature
OF a surprise, the troops being
thrown in and occupying the big in
duStrial plants OF the section, which
are known to be Spartacan strong
holds.
Pedestrians are being halted and
the houses entered by the searching
parties. The telephone service has
been stopped to make the siege Of
Moabit as alright as possible.
This section of Berlin is notorious
for its riotous tendencies and is
looked upon generally as a gather
ing place for all the criminal ele-
ments.
The employees of the Schwartz
kopf works, one of the most radical
bodies among the Berlin proletariat.
voted today to resume work We'd

put an end to the strike of railway

.ARDMORE WOMEN FAIL
TO MAKE CONVALESCENT
ROBES FOR RED CROSS

Less than a third OF the quota OF
convalescent robes, to be made by
Carter County Chapter Red Cross.
have been completed, and day after
day the sewing room at Convention
Hall is empty. This astounding
statement was made by the super
visor OF sewing, who called The Ard
moreite this morning asking that
another appeal be made to the wo-
men OF Ardmore urging them TO re-
spond at once to this call.
On order from headquarters, sur
gical dressing and knitting rooms
have been closed and all work is
concentrated on the rapid compile
ton OF pajamas and conyalescent
robes for returning American
wounded.
To minimize the agony and fear
of mothers, wives and sisters, whose
loved ones were wounded in the
battles for freedom and humanity,
the government is using every
means to expedite the return OF the
wounded, to what all American SOL
diers call Gods country Day af-
ter day ship loads OF wounded, many
OF them termed "stretcher cases,
are reaching the United States, They
are being sent to the hospitals near
est their homes. Ardmore and Car
ter county wounded will be sent TO
Camp Bowie, Fort Worth, Texas,
or Camp Pike, Little Rock, Ark
where every attention will be given
them. 1t is Tor these that the con-
valescent robes must be made, Are
they to reach home, only to find
that their sacrifices are already be-
ing forgotten The only welcome
that can be given those who have
sacrificed, is to use every effort that
lends to their comfort. Their needs
must be our first consideration. And
in an eagerncss to welcome them
home, are their needs to be over
looked?
Ardmore's quota is 800 GONZALES
cent robes and like number OF pa
jamas. This work must be sent in
as quickly as possible, as every day
brings its shipload of wounded. II
you feel that you cannot leave home,
get the material and do your sew
ing at your home. There is nothing
to prevent the women OF Ardmore
to do this work. 1t is their duty.
There were no slackcrs in the Okla
homa troops in the 36th and Doth
Divisions, let the same be said of
the women Of Ardmorc.

AMERICANS TO MAKE
SURVEY OF FRENCH
AND BELGIAN RUINS

Paris Ian. l5.-Presidcnt Wilson
will have before him an independent
estimate OF the actual physical dam
age suffered by France and Bel
gium during the war, when the
peace congress reaches the stage Of
discussing indemnitics. 4 survey
probably will be conducted by more
than 200 American army officers
chosen especially for the work.
In many OF the devastated re-
gions absolutely no records are now
available upon which to base an es-
innate OF what existed there before
German guns and troops ground the
towns and villages into heaps OF
ruins. The work OF viSualizing what
pre-war conditions were and fixing
the proper value for the damage in
flicted, will take many weeks, prob
ably months.
In the opinion OF some observ-
erS, the bill OF actual damages when
computed will be so great that the
entente nations probably will be
more concerned with the ability Of
the German people to foot the bill,
as it will with the possibility of eX-
acting further damages in the
nature OF punitive indemnities and
lwar costs.

Manages should be restricted to res
Etution, reparation and restoratious

FRISCO TROOP TRAIN
WRECK DUE TO ENGINEER

Washington, Jan. l5.-Blame for
the wreck OF troop train on the
St, Louis & San Francisco railroad
near Marshfield, Mo-, last Septem-
ber, in which II soldiers and three
employees were killed and 40 per
sons injured, was placed today by
the safety bureau of the Interstate
Commerce Commission on a train
dispatcher and cngineman. In re-
porting its findings the bureau said
the wreck was caused "by the fail
IRE OF Division Dispatcher Choon-
ister to transmit a train order to
the operator at the Conway station
and the failuer OF Engineman
Douglas to observe and obey stop
indications of an automatic signal -
Pointing out that all OF the en-

This accident is another exam
pie OF that class OF accidents which
could be prevented by the use OF

Oklahoma City, Jan. l5.-Senate
bill No. SO, by Snyder, is an echo
OF the recent primary election cam

it obligatory upon holders OF state

ponents claimed they devoted most

The bill also provides that no state
