HOUSE VOTES TO
 AMEND FOOD ACT
Would Extend Lever Law Pro- vision to Clothing and Other paraphernalia. = Heated Ar oument Over Passage.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Without .uondment and with practically no onposition, the house late today voted to amend the Lever food control act to extend it's provisions to include clothing. containers of food, feed or fertilizers, fuel oil and implements used in production of necessities and to penalize profiteering by $5,000 fine or two years imprisonment. Proposals to make the act apply to profiteering in house and room rents, adopted by the house in com mittee of the whole, were stricken out in the final vote.
 Efforts were made by both repub- lcans and democrats to have the amendments provisions cover neces- sites other than those included in the amendment as reported by the agriculture committee. Inclusion of kerosene and gasoline was proposed by Representative Strong, republi- can, Kansas, who said the prices of these products had increased 300 per cent in the last two years, but his amendment was rejected by close vote, while that of Representative Newon, republican, Minnesota, to in- clude raw cotton, was eliminated on a point of order by Representative Blanton, democrat, Texas.
 Attempts to bring farmers and farm organizations within the juris- diction of the amendment also were blocked.
 Recommendations of Attorney General Palmer to include retailers doing a business of less than $100,0C under the profiteering section, SC that the department might Ego after the little ones" were included in the measure as passed.

 The women of America" he said during the course of his interesting < talk, teach and exemplify the great and good things in life. The men of America can never have leadership alone---the men and the women must 1 do it together. The American woman has come to her glory and crown to- day---she has ascertained that she is i esse ential in every phase of life---she IS giving as she always has---and that is leadership. The women of 1 America share in responsibilities greater than any other women in any country"

Mrs. Charles s. Bissell state vice regent of the Connecticut D. A. R., the last speaker, spoke briefly, but greatly emphasized the fact that al though the Germans have been bless any repentance at heart.
 An intensely interesting historical sketch of the Mary SiIiman chapter was given by Mrs Orville Rector, who told the meaning of the anniver- sary and said while the organization started 25 years ago with only 21 members, now it boasts of 400 daugh- ters. She told how the name Mary Silliman was chosen and gave some very delightful mental pictures as to how Mary Silliman looked at the time of the Revolutionary days. -..
 The D. A R. has done splendid work during the present conflict judging from the report given in that interesting history. Thousands of knitted garments, books, magazines, and other necessities were sent to the boys over there. They assisted greatly in all drives, campaigns and some members worked in factories during the shortage of labor. Red Cross auxiliaries were organized, can teens established where the members worked in serving food during the in fluenza epidemic. One daughter is a nurse lover there" now. Large num- bers of canes were collected and sent to the hospitals for the soldiers. In the Liberty bond campaigns, they also came forward with S20,OO0 worth during the first loan; the second loan amounted to $6S,950 and the third S41, 300; while the fourth was S58,- $50. Mary Silliman chapter gave s375 for the national organization for bond purchases. The Tlnoloy fund gift was $1S9.50
