WOMEN MAKE GOOD
AS WAR WORKERS
By United Press.

London, Feb. 20.-(By mailD-
English women have definitely won
a place for themselves in industry
as a result of their showing during
the war, according to a report issued
by the home office.
They made good" in a majority
of the industries in which they sub
stituted for the men.
Woman must hereafter be consid-
cred a permanent factor in the Eng
lish labor situation.
Industries in which women had
the most conspicuous success were
clothing and boot and shoe manu-
facturers, lines in which they had
already been employed to a limited
extent Here they have shown ca
pacity to carry out completely and
satisfactorily many of the more
skilled processes hitherto reserved
for men.
Inc home oItlce pointed OUT that
while woman could not hope to COM
pete permanently with men in many
of the heavier manual trades, the
war has shown that "in light, semi
skilled work her value is frequently
equal, and where operations called
for fineness of touch and deftness
of handling, women are preferable
to men"
In trades in which they were en-
gagged in repetition work by machin-
1 cry, employers found the women took
/ more kindly TO the work than men.
Many shops actually effected an in.
creased output as a result of the
substitution of women. s-ri

WOMEN DON'T CHEER
STANDARD COSTUMES

London, Feb. 12.-(By mail)-Eng-
lish women are promised standard
costumes, coats and skirts by Eas-
ter. But they're not bit enthusias-
tic about it.
During four years of war patriots
continually impressed upon the fair
sex what a huge economy could be
accomplished if only they would
standardize their wardrobes. The
persuasion fell on deaf ears.
Managers of West End stores are
convinced that the standard clothes
will find no sale. From their expert
ence they claim that woman at heart
is an individualist and will never be
content to let another know how
much she has paid for a garment.
In view of women's determined
stand an experiment is being made
to place on the market standardized
cloths at standardized price and
profit, leaving the design to the man.

German Editor Gives View on
Present Lineup In Hunland;
Says German People as
Whole Are Crazy.
KAISER is COWARD OR
COULD REGAIN THRONE
Is Strong for Wilson; Hunger
Makes People Easy Prey to
Bolshevism; Rulers Are
of Old Regime.
BY United Press.


Berlin, March Macmillan
Harden, editor of the Berlin Zukunft,
and Germanys most outspoken citi-
zen, told a representative of the
United Press that the present Ger
man government should and will be
overthrown.
"The German people are crazy"
he said. "The kaiser, if he were
not such a coward could return and
regain the throne. The success of
the league of nations and world
peace depend upon the close, friend
ly relations of England, the United
States and Germany"
Harden has just recovered from
an illness. He discussed conditions
frankly, declaring that Germany is
to blame for the war though the peo-
pie were fooled by the government
into believing that they fought to
save their homes.
Harden advocated that Germany
follow the lead Of President Wilson,
saying that despite the fact that
the economic blockade of Germany
has not been lifted, he still had
faith in President Wilson.
He declared that the present Ger
man republican government is con-
trolled by the old regime, and he
pointed to the danger of bolshevism
through the peoples hunger and
their hatred for the junkers. He
scored the German foreign office,
which he said was dishonest.
The editor advocated a new Ger
man government that would be
"honest and above board" to make
the final and lasting peace with the
allies.

ELECTION.
INTEREST
is SMALL

Voting in the primary election be-
ing held in the city today, is very
light, were the reports received from
the various voting places this after
noon.
The only interest that is being
manifested is in the races for chief
OF police and street commissioner.
With five well-known men asking for
the police chiefs job and two in the
race for street commissioner, indica-
tions as expressed around the vot-
ing boxes this morning, were that
these races would be close.
Polls close this evening at Z
O'Clock and according to election of
ficials, Chickasha will know the re
suits of the election by O'Clock.

HILL WELL
CAUSE FOR
COMMENT
A Dozen Men, a Dozen Reports
AS to Probable Production
of New Baby Gasser in
Cement Field.

That the Hill well that came in
yesterday in the Cement pool foi
some gas, has caused more conver-
sation than anything that has hap
pened in the field for many moons.
The principal topic Of conversation
is the volume Of gas that is really
evident there.
Talk to dozen different men and
you have as many different reports,
yet there were all at the well yes
terday and half of them will tell you
they saw the thing guaged. Also
few others will tell you that they
were there all day and the thing
never was guaged.
One man declared that there was
only trace of gas shown and that
he spent the day at the well, that
they were not stopping to arrange
for saving the flow for fuel purpos-
es, but were continuing drilling
Three minutes later a man who was
at the well yesterday stated flatly
that the roar Of the well could be
heard two miles when the guage was
put on. This man declared that the
well guaged 11,5000OO feet.
An oil pipe line man who visited
the field yesterday stated this morn
ing that the we'll was a fairly good
gasser, not large, but a well of sew
eral million feet at that.
An oil scout who visited the we'll
yesterday declared this morning that
he saw the well guaged and that it
registered 3,SOO,0OO feet
There was one point on which all
agreed, and only one. 1t was that
the drilling win not stop at the pres
ent depth, but will continue to the
oil sand, which it is believed will be
picked up about 100 feet deeper. All
indications are that the Hill well
will be producer of oil. The for
nations have been regular they have
picked up the same sands shown in
the other wells and there seems ev-
cry reason to believe that a produc-
er of oil will result when they have
gained a sufficient depth.
