DOOR IS LOCKED, NOW
THAT HORSE IS GONE
Reversal is Not Taken Seriously
As Amendment Has Been
P,OCiaiuned

"'h'hiO' 'Shh., ocpt. -lut
old story of locking the stable door
after the horse is gone was re-en-
acted by the House of Representa-
tives yesterday afternoon in it's at
tempt to undo the work of two
weeks ago. when by a vote Of SO
to Al it completed tht ratification
OF the Susan B. Anthony amend
ment to the constitution of the Unit
ed States. 1t voted this afternoon
to nonconcur in the Senae resolu-
tion proposing ratification.
The entire proceeding lacked in
terest because it is generally agreed
that ratification has been accom-
plished. But there was spice in it
because the ratificationists put up a
fight, anyway.
1t was evident early in the dav
that the ants were in the majority,
and that they would put their pro-
gramme through with machine-like
precision. This is exactly what they
did.
Their first move was to expugne
from the journal Of Aug. 21 all ref
erence to suffrage except the roll
call of that date and the pont of
order made by Speaker Seth Walk
er that no quorum was present. This
was the day the quorum was first
broken. Thirty eight members fail
ed to show up. 1t was later learned
that they were in Alabama. How
ever, Representative Riddick of
Memphis contended that in the mat
ter of suffrage amendment the
Legislature acted as a federal ag-
ency, and the motion to reconsider
was called up by a quorumless House
and killed.
= Riddick Vainly Protests
After this was expunged from the
journal, the ants, by vote of Al
to 50. ordered a certified copy of
the ratification resolution the origi-
nal Of which is in the Senate, spread
upon the Journal II was then a
matter of only moment to recon-
slider the action of Aug. II in adopt
ing the resolution, and then a mo-
tion to concur was adopted by a
vote of AZ to "a, with 20 members
not voting.
Representative Riddick protested
against the entire proceeding. He
declared that the resolution was out
of the jurisdiction of the House and
really that the amendment was now
a part of the constitution of the
United States, since it had already
been proclaimed by the secretary of
state at Washington. He urged
this in a point of order. Speaker
Walker overruled him.
The discussion Immediately pre-
,eding the vote to nonconcur pro-
'oked the insistence by Mr.. Riddick
hat reconsideration was now i'm
possible. He read a letter from At
Thompson stating
hat in the opinion of the attorney
General there could now be no re-
consideration. This did not alter
he plans of the ants. In fact, they
eemed to enjoy it. and went ahead
With their plan in the most methodi-
al way.
The proceeding ended with a mo-
ion by Representative Hall, leader
( the so-called "red rose brigade"
'hich went to Alabama. to notify
he Senate that the House had re
Dnsidered its action on the suffrage
mendment and had voted to non
oncur. This was carried by viva
oce vote.

Chicago, Sept. 4.-Activities of the
Southern Protective Tariff Associa-

subject of discussion before the Sem
ate Committee investigating cam
paign funds here.
A copy of circular letter said to

used in the interests of the Republi-
can national and State tickets was
submitted by Wilbur w. Marsh.
treasurer of the Democratic Nation
al Committee, and National Com
mitteeman from Iowa.
The testimony Of Mr.. Marsh did
not reveal how much has been con-
tributed by Kentucky to the organi.
zation, but a list of contributors from
Texas, where only about 100 similar
letters were distributed, showed that
twelve individuals sent a total of
$4,000 to the finance office.
Texas Quota $4,000
The Texas quota of the organiza-
tion was put at $4,000. The Ken

by $1,000 or possibly $4,000.

to be active in the State. Letters
of substantially the same nature are
alleged to have been distributed by
the American Defense Society. and
the committee of American business
men, both of which Mr.. Marsh said
are working in the interest of the
Republican campaign.
All the letters submitted as evil
dence were dated some time in Aug
ust, 1920, those of the Defense So
ciety and the Business Men, at New
York, and that of the Tariff Asso-
citation at Atlanta.
Efforts by members of the investi-
eating committee TO ascertain the
professed purpose of the orgauiza-
tions were not successful. In exam
inatiol however, Mr.. Marsh indi-
Gated that whatever the stated pur-
pose may be, the real and primary

vities, is the election of Warren G.

State Board To Consider
School Finances

A meeting of the State Board of
Education will be held in Dover
tomorrow to consider proposed
legislation for a larger apportion-
ment of State funds for school
purposes. The board will propose
a method for distributing the
additional funds should the Legis-
lature appropriate sufficient money
to cover the proposed budget.
If the State increases appropria-
tions for elementary and high
schools and assists in the payment
of transportation to the extent of
Is per cent a considerable tax re-
duction could be effected.
One of the largest items in the
budget is high school tuition,
which could be cut in half by a
State appropriation, making the
annual cost approximately $50 or
$50 a pupil. Transportation is
also a considerable item, and it is
hoped steps will be taken to have
this expense distributed all child
rem in the State attending graded
schools.
With the exception of high
school teachers, salaries of teach
esr could be increased without
changing the school code. Trans
portation allowances and changes
in appropriations for high schools
would require amending the code.

A campaign for raising Della
wares quato $1,000 for "America's
gift to France" will open March
% and end March 27.

following statement relative to the

acquainted with the idea Of the
memorial.
"The Gift to France will be a
memorial in the form of a statue
to be erected on the banks of the
Marne at Meux, which is twenty
miles from Paris. This gift is to
commemorate the gallant stand of
the French in the crucial days of
early September, 1914, when the
German advance on Paris was
checked by the noted and beloved
Joffre.
"The statue was designed by
Americas formost sculptor. Fred
erick MacMonnies, who has vol
unteered his services to the ma
tional committee, headed by Hon,
Myron T. Herrick."
''The money is to be raised by
popular subscriptions in all parts
of the union, and the committee in
charge desires to lay emphasis or
the fact that it is not concerned as
much with the size of the sub,
scriptions individually as it is
with the number of givers-te
