SUITS TO OPEN
 NEW CAMP AICN

Washington, Aug. 23-Woman suf- frage leaders are considering launch ing an imm mediate and vigorous cam paign to procure ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment by other states to assure that all American women will be able to vote in the coming Presidential and Congressi ona1 elections.
 This course is being considered be- cause of the tactics of delay and the legal attacks now being employed by suffrage opponents in Tennessee to prevent that states ratification from becoming effective in time to allow women to vote this fall.
 At suffrage headquarters yesterday it was apparent that the tactics of the Tennessee antis, aimed to prevent Gov Roberts from forwarding the certificate to Secretary of State Colby, are bothering suffra gsts more than they care to admit.
 With the Tennessee certification in hand, Mir. Colby can issue at once a formal proclamation of ratification of the amendment as the last formal l step necessary to make it a part of the Constitution of the United States. Once that is done. suffragists believe further legal attacks have small chance of success. Until it is done, however, suffragists are on the de- fensive.
 Gov. Roberts is prevented from forwarding the certification by the fact that Speaker Walker of the Ten nessee House has not signed the ra,tl- fication resolution passed by that body and by a temporary injunction re- straining him from forwarding the certifcation. At last reports Speaker Walker was sojourning in Alabama along with other Tennessee legislators and there was no advice as to when he would return to Nashville. Suffrage leaders are trying for an early hearing on the injunction. They believe they can win it. but they are still facing the probability that their opponents will appeal. thus further preventing Roberts and Colby from acting even though both are eager and willing to do so. There is also the possibility that an attempt will be made to enioin Secretary Colby from issuing his proclamation even after the favorable Tennessee action, has been certified. but suffra gistS say they do not fear the result of this.

MODERATE PRICES
 FOR ADVANCE FALL COATS

Advance fall coats now seen in the stores here are very attractive in de sign and materials, with prices so far as can be judged from this limited showing, slightly moderated since last season. This may not last over the initial showings during which time some say they are sold closer to stirn- ulate trade.
 Woolen fabrics include Bolivias, chameleons and novelties of every de- schiption some of which having proved themselves good for wear the past season, are being asked for again.
 Many Button Trims.
 A good many buttons are seen on coats. Styles seem good. and length is given attention in most stocks.
 Quite few cape collar models were worn in New York during the cool spell, brought either from the East, or purchased here in emer- gency.
 While many browns, rookie shades and tans are shown as usual in fall, twilights, navies, Pekins and other deep colors are also quite prominent Many of the navies are self trimmed while most Of the brighter blues have fur in contrast.
