Compromise Calls for Equal
Rights to Education and
Chances in All Industries
By Constance Drexc]

GENEVA, June 13.-Suffrage socio-
ties in four moro countries have been
admitted into the international alliance
Spain, Uruguay, Greece and Argen-
tina.
The convention decided to change the
name of the Woman's Charter to the
Womans Program. 1t was adopted with
the main features as follows for every
country:
Woman suffrage; equal rights to edu-
cation and opportunities in every indus
try and profession; equal pay for equal
work; equal rights over children; right
TO retain nationality irrespective of mar
riage; higher moral standard for mon
equal to that of woman; no special reg
uiatlons for labor different from that
OF men unless desired by working wom-
en- themselves as protection for moth
erhood; widows without provision to be
paid for maintenance of children by the
state so as to keep the children with the
mothers; research into paternity and OBJ
legation of the father to pay the un-
married mother"
Adopted as Compromise
The foregoing was finally adopted as
compromise of all suggestions. The
theory of pensions for all mothers as
recognition by the state Of the value
of motherhood to society was in the
original program as it came out of COM
mlttee, also lnsistence that illegitimate
children should have the same rights
as the legitimate child. But these two
subjects were so deep that everybody
was houndering around in a sea of
cont1lcting viewpoints. SO they were
lett out altogether to be brought up
again at the next congress. Women of
so many various nations have never
before come together like this, and not
at all since before the war. They do
not wish the alliance to stand for
hastily drawn conclusions.
The league of nations again came IN
before the open convention after being
thrashed out in committee. The WON
ems adherence to the league was set
tied the other day, but the question of
the modus operandi still is open. Prob
ably the league will be called upon to
call a world conference of women every
year.

Heir to-. Throne of
Spain Will Serve
As Private Soldier
Prince of Asturias Long
Has Drilled on the Palace
Grounds, Proving Him
self a Good Comrade

MADRID, June 13.-The Prince of The
Asturias. heir to the Spanish throne,
tomorrow will take the oath of 10y
atty as private infan,ryman in the
regiment formerly known as the Old
Sd Moaradas, which participated in the
conquest of Seville in the thirteenth
century and fought with Cortes in
Mexico and with Pizarro in Peru.
For the first time in history an heir
to the Spanish throne will serve as
an ordinary soldier, the others having
received the rank of captain general
at birth. The prince would have pre-
ferred to become a sailor, but his
father chose a military career for him.
For several months past the prince
has worked hard at acquiring the Gle
ments of military knowledge under
three chosen officers. In the last month
he has drilled constantly in the palace
grounds with a company of the reei-
ment he will join, rising at reveille and
going through the exercises in. the
morning. He has shown himself good
comrade, sharing all the sports.
During the afternoons the prince has
invited some of the soldiers to join him
IN MS garden work on the piece of
ground in the palace gardsn given him
BY his father. He passes his spare
hours with his brothers and sisters or
in tudying various subjects to fit him
self to rule when the time comes.
Prince Alfonso often has expressed
the desire to study at the University
of Madrid, but this is improbably. as
special professors have been EMPLOYED
to teach him.
To-morrow's ceremony will take place
at the polo grounds of the Casa Del
Campo. Diplomats and Ministers have
been invited. as also former officers of
the regiment. On Tuesday the King
will give luncheon to the regiment S
officers and men, who number 1,40O.
Another son of the King. Prince Con
za!o, is to enter the same regiment in
the near future.

Following meeting of the New

was announced that the first move of
the unionized teamsters and longshore-
men to combat the merchants action
had been decided upon and that the
10000 pier workers of the international
had pledged themselves to see the
fight through to a finish.
John F. Riley, head of the district
council. said that union dock workers

To Use Motor Pickets
In addition, he said, a powerful wea-
pom in the form of corps of motor
pickets had been organized, consisting
OF twenty automobiles and about 1870
men. These, he said, will picket the
non-unon trucks ION the run" and will
use their influence with the organized
workers with whom the non-union
drivers come into contact.
I'VE have already tested our
strength said Riley, "and found it
ample. Last Saturday two trucks Of
the Citizens Transportation Commit
tee carried a load OF cotton from the
Morgan Line docks to the piers of the
Old Dominion Line, which is now in
the transatlantic service. The long
shoremen here recognized the drivers
as non-unlon men and refused to touch
the stuff. The cotton had to be cart
ed back to the Morgan Line piers.

obey the law. but we shall at the same
time go to the limit of our rights as

doesn't want to.
The stand of the pier men was
adopted. he explained, after it was
found that majority of the Atlantic

unions of this port. who again voted
to stay out until the coastwise steam

The decision came as great disap-

ers, VINO were making strenuous ef-
forts to ward off the impending strug

and who were hopeful that the men
would recognize the seriousness of the
situation and call the strike off for
the present.

had taken firm stand he felt that

ton was Mrs. Naidaus opening re-

Tell of India's Desire
Mrs. Cnandra Sem, who recently
appeared before committees in the
l4oUSe Of Commons, and Mrs. Tata. a
bomhay, told something of India $
past and of her present desire to live
up to her traditions. Much to everv-
BODY surprise they spoke of suffrage
societies in India, that Great Britain
had accepted the principle Of woman
suffrage tor India, and that the as
sembly to be formed will have to pass
on the matter. They spoke of the ex-
ment of motherhood in their country
as q climax to woman's existence, snd
SAID they were glad to have found the
same common idea among the women
OF the West at the convention.
Two Japanese delegates in native
costume a so spoke. One is professor
Of the Woman's Christian Tclnpcranc-
Union Of Japan. The other is secre-
tary Of the Young Women's Chris
tlan Association. Both said woman
suffrage had so far made no progress
IN thelr country and was practically
unheard Of. But both prophesied that
the congress would meet in Toxic be-
fore many years.
DR.. Pauline Luisi, of Uruguay, and
Mrs. Josephus Daniels were the only
Western women on the program. Mrs
Daniels made speech as official dele
gate from the United States. She
spoke of President Wilson's advocacy
OF the suffrage cause and OF the need
Tor women in reconstruction problems
Various methods of assistance to
widows and unmarried mothers were
brought up by the European delegates
But in these discussions America took
small part. 1t was clearly demonstrate
ed that too much state paternaisn
was not desired in the United States
where the individual is expected to be
capable of graphing with her own per.
sonal problems.

we should get rid of mosquitoes. But

asserts as the result of his oNn expert
ence OF 20 years and that Of many

exists where there are no mosquitoes.
lie points out that everywhere In
malarlal countries the disease breaks
out lust at the time when the soil Is
broken for planting. lie does not deny
that the anopheles mosquito spreads
malaria, but lie says this is evidently
not the only means of infection.
The old theory that malaria was
caused by the bad air OF swampy dis
tricts or by certain carnations from
the soil may be correct after all.
