WOMEN AND CONGRESS.

tAs requested by Florence Brewer
Boeckel, press chairman of the Ma
tional Woman's party, the journal
gives editorial space TO the following
statement by her of the women's po-
sition regarding suffrage and the next
Ccngrcss.)
With the opening of the extra ses-
sion, the Acknowledgement of the
women Of this country will be in the
hands of the republican party.
For two years. the republicans in
congress have stood ready to give
their two-thirds of the necessary vote
for the passage of the federal amend
ment Eghty-one per cent republicans
compared with 40 per cent of the
democrats, voted for it in the lower
house, and rs per cent republicans
compared with So per cent democrats
voted for it in the senate. Republic
can leaders in the incoming congress
have declared that they propose to
make the passage of the amendment
one of the first pieces of business in
the new session.
Senator Curtis, republican whip in
the senate, stated: Il am confident
that the suffrage amendment will Sc
cure the necessary two-thirds vote in
the house and senate and be passed in
both bodies in this congress, as soon
as the session begins"
Representative Mann, chairman of
the suffrage committee in the lower
house and republican flood leader
Mondell have both given equally en-
ohatic assurance of the immediate
passage of the amendment in the
house.
The fact remains, however, that in
the senate one vote is still lacking.
Ninety-two men stand pledged; SO for
and 20 against, while four men are
still undeclared. Of these, one is a
republican--Senator Keyes of New
Hampshire, and three democrats, Dial
of South Carolina, Harris of Georgia

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I. l9l
WORK FOR THE SENATE.

When the United States senate
meets it will be called upon to make a
number of decisions of the most mo-
mentous character, not only for the
future of the United States but for
the peace of the world.
This country may be placed in a po-
sition where it will become the arbi-
ter of many disputes. The consutu-
ton makes the senate full partner
with the president in the business of
treaty-making, Therefore, practically all
of the decisions at Paris must receive
the senates approval before they be-
come effective.
The senate will have to consider the
covenant whereby the league of ma
tons will be constituted-if it Is con-
stituted; the treaty of peace whereby
the terms on which the war is to bo
ended are settled; the agreement
which the president is said to have
made, pledging our instant aid to
France, If she is attacked on the
Rhine; any requests that the United
States act as mandatory of the league,
whether of Constantinople, Armenia
or Mexico; any form of engagement
into which the president may enter
as to the treatment of Russia or ar
to war with the Bolsheviki-all o.
these things must have final action
by the United states senate.
These are all more or less debatahle
questions, While it IS by no means
certain, the chances of ratification of
the covenant has been improved, since
it was amended to some extent along
the lines suggested by the senator's
themselves. 1t IS probable that the
senate will write into any approval it
may give interpretations of the terms
of the covenant as they are to be UNI
derstood in the United states.
The presidents pledge to France
was admittedly made, with the necos-
sary reservation as to the senatc's APP
proval. The president merely lu-
thorized Secretary Tumulty to deny
treaty. He hadn't. He hal merely
entered into an agreement, subject TO
the approval of the senate. Its terms
have not been permitted to leak out,
except in the most unofficial way. The
president has formally denied that an
alliance IS proposed.
But if the terms. said to have been
agreed to by Great Britain. arc the
same as agreed to by President Will
son, subject to the senates ratifica-
ton, there is little short of an often
sive and defensive alliance proposed.
Evidently France doesn't put much
faith in the league of nations as a
war preventing organization.

The president of the United States
should have care how he attempts
to regulate all the affairs of Europe.
He has quite all he can do to straight
en- out the tangle now existing mathis
country.
The United States came into the
war at late date. 1t suffered casu-
alties and assumed debts far less than
those incurred by England and
France. Under the circumstances. it
will seem inappropriate if the gov
eminent attempts to dictate to Eu-
rope too positively, as to how is map
shall be reconstructed, and how its
peoples shall live.
Judging from the Paris dispatches
Mr.. Wilson's attitude seem vtry mucn
like dictation on number of points
While the United States can not main
tain its old attitude df isolation, it
does not wish to get mixed up with
minor and purely European points Of
controversy more than can be helped.
1t should not attempt to settle all their
problems. The statesmen of Europe
probably understand the situation
over there better than any outs der
can.
Mr.. Wilson would be in a much bet
ter position to take a firm attitude on
controyerted European questions. ii
lie had a representative peace COM
mission. He appointed ono that Nrs
not representative af the whole rcun-
try, and which he knew in advance
could be depended upon to agree with
him on every point If he was speaking
for the whole country, instead Of for
one party alone. and not the whole
of that party he could speak with
more solid ground for confidence.
If he had with him a non partisan
commission made up of the most com
petent experts on foreign affairs. men
like Senator Lodge and Elihu Eoct,
his position would be stronger. And
the chances for god settlement
would be better.

"NO MORE PYRENEES."


News comes that the internatioh1
Pyrenean tunnel between Paris and
Spain is finished. When France and
Spain agreed, thirty-seven years ago
that two railway routes should be cart
ried over the mountain wall. one by
way of an international tunnel, the
war minister of each country protest
ed against the proposal
This new undertaking will open up
communication between the valley of
the great Spanish river Ebro and the
French Midi and part of central
france. At the French terminus the
line through the tunnel will connect
with the railway of the Ariege val
ley, from AK to Toulouse. A station
upon this line is Tarascon, the home
OF Alphonse Daudets delightful Tar
tarin. AS tributary of the Garonne.
the Ariege gives access to the valley of
that river at the head of whose sea-
ike estuary stands the great port of
Bordeaux
Perhaps since there are no more
fyrenees, We may soon be able to
duu, there are no more Dover
Straits" and Londoners may take
train at Charing Cross and roll into
the valley of the Spanish Ebro with
out change of cars.

CREATIVE ABILITY.

In our office we draw 4 very dis
tinCt line between designs or sketches
and working drawings and it is, in my
opinion, fatal to try to measure a de-
signer's ability by the number df
hours it would take him to produce
a sketch. That is work that requires
creative imagination, and our design
ers are not judged by the amount of
time they put into the solution of an
architectural problem, but solely by
the results which they obtain. ire
spective of cost, so that this part of
the work does not come under this
category. Only after sketches have
been approved, and the work is turned
over to general craftsmen to be de-
veloped into working drawings can we
begin to apply scientific methods in
accomplishing the different ends.

The Anonymous Letter

BY SOPHIE IRENE LOEB

Take heart. Treat the anonymous
letter as you would a serpent who
comes for no other purpose than to
sting somewhere. Don't let this pois-
on reach you. Treat him as you
would a snakc-cast him off.
| have seen much unnecessary pain
produced just because the person who
receives such letter fails to play his
part as a recipient of it, and that is
to ignore it.
1t is very rare indeed that the
threats made and the efforts to hurt
in a sinister letter of this kind ever
have any effect whatsoever if the re-
cipient pays no attention to it.
Animosity, jealousy covetousness--
all these germs are found in the per-
son who writes an anonymous letter.
When you receive one of these malic-
ious missives. you can make IN your
mind the person who wrote it has
some of the following traits:
He is the man who would desert his
wife and children.
He would purloin the penny from a
baby's hand.
She is the woman who would go
into the home of her best friend and
steal her husband.
He is the friend who makes you
think what a good fellow you are and
secretly takes your wife out to din
ner.
She is the girl who herates you in
the eyes of your best beau.
He is the man who would boast of a
woman's love.
She is the woman who would break
a mans heart just for the fun of it.
He is the person who brandiShes
women's names in club rooms.
She is the girl who undermines an
other girls work in the eyes of the
employer.
He is the man who would borrow
money from you and forget it.
She is the woman who would tell
your husband about having seen YOU
somewhere with so and so.
He is the man who would eat your
dinner, smoke your cigars. and then
tell your friends what bad manners
you have.
In a word the anonymous letter
writer belongs to the crook class.
He is the coward who is afraid OF
his name.

THE PROGRESSIVE TOWN.

The progressive town must not
merely be alert to find new business
and to advance commercially. but it
must be very receptive to new ideas.
| The whole current of civilized rog-
ress is changing in these marvellous
of its old ruts by the shock of war,
| People are carefully examining their
old educational civic and Industrial
methods. They are asking themselves
| how they can perform the tasks 81 life
more efficiently.
Nothing can go along in the old
stereotyped way, Churches must re-
adjust their methods to modern stand
ards, must cut out duplication OF eff
fort and sectarian rivalry. They must
continue their work of promoting
spiritual life, ana at the same time at
tempt more for practical beneficence
and human welfare.
The schools can't be satisfied o fol-
low along the old beaten paths of ed
ucaton Modern life calls for young
people of keener observation, better
civic ideals, greater vocational skill
and higher standards of intelligence
Fortunately Albuquerque's schools
keep abreast of the times or a little
in advance Of them.
Industrial enterprises must share
the new spirit of brotherhood. They
must promote the welfare of the hum
blest worker. and at the same time
they must adopt the new scientific
methods assuring a greater produc-
ton.
Now town can't go ahead in these
and many other like respects, unless
it has a lot of people who have their
eyes and minds very wide ouen. They
must be reading newspapers and mag
azines, learning what other people are
thinking about studying the progress
of other communities, watching social
experiments. And they must feel
keen disre, when an idea has clearly
made good elsewhere, to try it out
here in Albuquerque. and be willing
to give some time and effort to adapt
ing it to their home surroundings.
