London, Aug 18.-Beneath rough exterior one finds home comfort in the municipal bungalows that London is providing for its citizens. Some of these cottages are converted army huts, others are built by the city at 8 low cost on vacant lots throughout London. Bu cozy dining room like this makes up for the plainness of the outside.

CONVICT RETAIL GROCER
PALMER TO AID STATES IN
SEEING FoODSTUFFS.

Misunderstanding new devel-

reduce the high cost of living has
started. One of the most interesting
was the announcement by Attorney
General Palmer that the first federal
conviction for profiteering had been
obtained. District Attorney Lucey tele-
graphed from Binghamton, N. Y, that
a retail grocer had been fined $500 for
selling sugar at 10 cents a pound. No
details were given, and the law under
which the case was brought was not
known here. "A few good cases Of
profiteering in each state will settle
that trouble" Mr.. Palmer remarked.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Peoria, H., Aug. 1.-THE Second
regiment, Seventh battalion Illinois re-
serve militia, stationed here and com
manded by Maj H. Nj. Powell, has
been ordered to the scene of the
strike. This morning it was reported
that three severe blasts occurred with
in the plant of the Keystone Wire and
Steel Company. The blasts could be
heard for several miles.
Peoria, Ill.--Three persons were
shot and seriously wounded and score
of other persons received cuts and
bruises when several hundred strikers
and sympathizers charged the Key
stone Wire and Steel Company's plant
in South Bartonville, five miles from
this city. A handful of deputy sher-
ifs who have been guarding the plant
where a strike of 800 workers has been
in progress fol several weeks, fought
off the rioters, returning yolley for vol
ley.
The seriously wounded are Reuben
Sommers and Alvin Sommers, who
were connected with the firm, and a
night watchman who was shot in the
back by snipers. The Sommers were
fired upon with shotguns.
Sporadic outbreaks continued through
out the day and resulted in the shoot
ing and slightly wounding of two
strikers who had fired on the depu-
ties.
The first outbreak occurred when a
truck load of strike breakers were
carried to the plant under protection
of deputy sheriffs.
The principal outbreak followed the
shooting of a woman by sniper near
the plant. She was only slightly In
jured Later truck load of strike
breakers approached the plant and fir
ing was renewed
Minor outbreaks started eight weeks
ago when the company employees
struck for higher wages and a closed
shop. Wage increases were granted
but the company refused to recognize
their union, and for a time the plant
| was closed down.

Mothers Day
To-day is Mothers Day.


Make motherhood safe for all
women" is the Mothers Day appeal
of the Children's Bureau, United
States Department of Labor.
Year by year $4,000 mothers die
III the United States, and many
other women suffer illness or life
long impairment of health from
causes connected with childbirth.
Modern science believes that these
deaths and illnesses coulS be in
large measure prevented. No better
resolution could be taken for Moth
er's Day, according to the Children's 3
Bureau, than TO make universally
available, and universally desired as
well, adequate care for mothers.
Such care is out of the reach of
many mothers at the present time
IN town and in the country. The re-
suit Is seen in the mortality figures
Inc United States has a higher
maternal death rate than any other
of the principal countries except
spain Or Switzerland. Sweden has
The lowest rate.

Sixty-four "Votes for
Women" in the Senate

According to data up to this week
there are sixty-four Senators
known to be for the Federal suf
frage amendment. One of the new
Senators has just declared himself
publicly on the matter.
He is Senator William J. Harris,
of Georgia. Senator Pat Harri-
son, of Mississippi; Senator Henry
W. Keyes, Of New Hampshire, and
Senator Nat B. Dial, of South Car
olina, are still doubtful And none
of the Senators of the last Con
gress who voted against the amend
ment has indicated a change of
heart.
Among Democratic woman suf-
fragists there is a strong hope that
Senator Harrison will vote for the
Federal amendment. Senator Har-
rison owes his election to President
Wilson, it is generally understood,
and it is believed that he will show
his gratitude for the Presidents sup
port by voting for woman suffrage
among other things.
Another vote from the Democrats
hoped for by many is that of John
Sharp Williams. 1t is known that
Senator Williams is not fundament-
ally against woman suffrage. He
based his mo- in the last Congress
upon the failure of his amendment
to the amendment, prohibiting the
voting of negro women. Suffragists
of the Democratic party believe
there is a possibility of his turning.
A recent woman suffrage move in
Georgia has significance nationally
The city Democratic committee in
Atlanta gave women primary suf-
frage for the coming city election.
Only one man voted against the
move. 1t is said that the sentiment
shown by this local move may affect
the vote of some of the Senators.

General farm work finds women

Thirteen Hundred
Wards

Westchester County has thirteen

hundred in institutions and five hun
dred in private homes. There we're
ninety applications for widows pen

they are now called, after the cpl

any child'sNlife which make demands
upon the public treasury, which can
not be fulfilled under the terms of
the law as it now stands. The
Children's Association stands ready
to meet any Of these demands, from
school clothes to extra beef juice
and eggs.
The association is at present pro-
vldlng twelve scholarships for chill

obliged to leave school and go to

social service experts, who assist the
