then energies, they drift along without doing any work
that can be avoided producing barely enough to assure

Therein is indicated one Of the certain results Of The
failure to protect the right to property There is neen-
tive for hnf in Mexico because an irresponsible or nef-
Saent government will either take away man savings or

There can be no progress, no comfort no prosperity,

Gov. Clement Intimates He
VIII Issue a Call for
Legislature.

/ WASHINGTON, July 3.-Governor
| Clement Of Vermont, after a confer
ence here last night with Senator
Harding, the republican presidential
nominee. indicated that he, would i'm
mediately call the Vermont legisla-
ture in special session to act on the
federal amendment.
The Vermont governor while not
stating definitely his course in the
suffrage matter,was quoted in state
ment from Senator Harding's office as
! saying that he frankly confessed
there was a preponderance Of Repub-
lican advice in favor OF special ses-
sion called TO consider ratification"
Statements were issued bv both
Senator Harding and Governor Glenn
ent regarding the conference which
took place at the formers home. There
was no statement by either as to
whether the governor came TO Wash
ington at the invitation Of the Repub-
lican candidate or on his own volition.
Senator Harding had the following
! 10 say regarding the conference:
1T gave me an opportunity 10 say
to Governor Clement that was deep
" interested in the final disposition
OF the question Of ratification and |
told the governor frankly that II my
advice was wanted. | would be glad

Of our conference
Clement Explains.
Governor Clement in his statement
said:
~ have been calling on Senator
Harding, and we discussed the state
Of the union agreeably, YOU can be
sure, and we discussed suffrage rati-
fication by Vermont. Our state Re-
publican convention asked me TO call
the extra session.
Chairman Hays has urged il on be-
half Of the national convention. ma
turallv wanted Senator Hardings
views and he suggested an early call.
Ny reluctance is due TO feeling that
Vermont prefers 10 change the funda-
mental laws very deliberately. We
can only change our state constitution
by one direct appeal 10 the people ana
the favorable action OF two legisla-
lures. We ale reluctant, therefore,
to ratify by legislature which was
elected at time when suffrage was
not an ISSUE"
Imediately after the conference
which lasted until near midnight,
