Interest in Fight For Women Votes
Centers on Delaware and

Today brings the crucial test to
woman suffrage.
In the States OF Delaware and
Washington the legislatures are
meeting today in special session to
act upon ratification of the suffrage
amendment. Ii these two States vote
for ratification, the pecessary number
of States will then have ratified and
the only delay in suffrage becoming
effective will be that incident to the
confirmation OF cambridge Colby as
Secretary OF State. for until he is
confirmed, no proclamation can be
issued by the State Department max
ing suffrage effective.
Suffrage leaders here are centering
their interest on the State of Della
ware. The State of Washington is
regarded as certain to ratify the
amendment. In Delaware there prom
Uses to be hard fight.
Miss Alice Paul, leader of the Ma
tional Woman's party, was today OPP

For the frst time in more than two

Although no suitable hall could be

the majority Of dealers are satisfied
that the displays in their own sales
rooms have special advantages that
could not be obtained otherwise.
From outward appearances there
does not seem to be much change in

closer inspection of the mechanical

have been improvements which tend
to make the operating Of the cars
