ALLEGED FRAUD BASIS
West Virginia Legislature Acted Illegally On
 Amendment, Claim

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Proceed ings asking that Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby be enjoined from issuing any proclamation declaring the Woman Suffrage Amendment ratified were instituted in the Su- preme Court of the District of Col umbia today by Charles s. Fairchild, of New York, President of the Amer ican Constitutional League. Fair child also seeks to prevent Atty Gen A Mitchell Palmer from en- forcing the act.
 Associate Justtss Thomas J Bail ey issued an order requiring Colby and Palmer to appear n court on July 13 and show cause why the motion should not be granted.
 The proceedings are based on the claim that ratification of the amendment by the West Virginia Legislature was illegal because ac- complished by fraud and that pro posed ratification by the Tennessee Legislature also would be Illegal be- cadse not authorized by the States Constitution.
 Only thirty-five States so far have ratified the amendment and one more is necessary before the smendment would become effective The attack today therefore came as l complete surprise to suffrage cir cles.

berntendent Of highways, were the
two principle topics brought up be
fore this mornings meeting OF the

First to be disposed of was the re-
port Uf the March grand jury on the
condition of the La Sale County jill

The jurors reported that the jail was
in good condition, generally but there
were. A few improvements needed to
make it an all round iirst'class baS-
tile. The recommended that all cells
be painted, that the smOne pipes in
the heating department be repaired
and thai the lighting system be over,
hauled. The committee also reported
that a fire door should be installed
between the mems department and
the Women's department. This was
referred to the committee on public
buildings.
The committee to settle with the
county recorder reported that they
had thoroughly looked into the petit
tion of f W. Weber. deputy county
recorder, in which he asked for an in
crease OF salary. The committee re
ported that they had reached decis-
ion that such an increase should be
granted Mr.. Weber not to exceed $40

Buckner should be allowed credit up
on his next report. This increase is
to go Into effect Immediately
