BIG VOTE EXPECTED
AT VILLAGE MEETING
More Than the Usual Amount of In
terest with Two Complete Tick
cts in the Field

With two complete tickets in the
field, one nominated at the citizens
caucus and the other filed under the
name of the non-partisan voters, there
is more than the usual amount of in
terest being manifested in the annual
village election which comes next Tues
day.
There are contests for village presi-
dent, for Trustee in two wards and for
water commissioner in one ward. This
combination furnishes material for
more interest in the election than has
been the case for number of years.
The different candidates are showing
considerable activity in most instances
and the result should be larger turn
out of voters than at any election since
the two principal political parties COM
bined in nominating candidates for
village offices at citizens caucus.
There are several important arti-
cles in the warning and they will be
given more thorough consideration If
The expected large gathering of voters
develops.

Boston, March 11.-Enact law to

DAYLIGHT SAVING
WINS FIRST ROUND
Legal Affairs Committee in Massachu.
setts House Reports Favorably
on the Bill

Boston, March 11--Daylight saw
ing in Massachusetts scored in the
first stage of the legislative fight by
achieving a favorable report tonight
by the Legal Affairs Committee,
which split to Z on the proposition.
Based ON several petitions calling
for the restoration of daylight saving
in this state, the committee filed in
the House a new draft of the BILL
which provides that every clock shall
be advanced one hour at ao'clock
in the morning of the last Sunday in
March and set back to standard time
at the same hour on the last Sunday
in October
The dissenting legislators are Sen
ators Reed of Taunton, Pearson of
Lowell and Walsh of Boston and
Representative Woodsum of Brain
tree, Coolidge of Medford, Tirrell of
Weymouth and Sibeit of Boston.
With three of the four Senate
members of the committee op-
posed to the bill its chances in the
upper branch are not looked on as
promising, if it gets through the
House, which will act on it first.

WON SAYS MRS. GAIT
Comment on Hearing the News from
West Virginia

New York, March TO-" Suffrage is
won. The words are simple but they
thrill as few words do or can
This was the enthusiastic conclusion
of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, presi
dent of the National Woman Suffrage
association, in statement issued here
on receipt of news that West Virginia
had ratified the federal amendment
With West Virginia won and Washing
ton and Delaware meeting soon in
special session, the opinion expressed
at national headquarters tonight was
that the struggle is over"
People who have followed the
course of woman suffrage from out
side with indifference or small under
standing of what has been at stake"
said Mrs. Gait, tWll have no com
prehension of the real message which
the West Virginia victory carries to
women. To us it means that the ma
ton is won, that the seventy year
struggle is over, that the women of
America are enfranchised women.
And now whatever comes out of
granting the suffrage to women, 1t is
safe to predict that it will never be
responsible for any offering to the
general welfare except those things
which have been well considered and
endorsed

SKIPPER OFF ON 223D
VOYAGE, HIS LAST
Captain Anton G. Thomson Has 2,
100000 Miles to His
Credit

New York, March 12.-Capt. Anton
G, Thomson, II, veteran or transatlan-
ic commanders and commodore of the
Scandinavian-Americ fleet, sailed
yesterday on his 223d round trip or
voyage to Copenhagen to join the
rocking chair fleet of Danish shippers
with pension from his employers
Halvor Jacobson, agent of the line
here, and the grizzled commodore
toasted the United States, President
Wilson, the King of Denmark, the ship
and the authors of 1000 lettes and
kilograms Capt. Thomson has received
in the last several days from friends
and folk who have crossed the sea
with him.
He has sailed nearly 100000 miles
since he went to sea for the first time
in a wind jammer. He was made mas
ter of the Thingvalla of the Thing
valla line, later absorbed by the Scan
dinavian-American line, in 1881.

NE VI ARTICLE 10
RESERVATIONS
AGAIN CHANGED
In Hopes of Securing Basis for
Final Agreement
VOTE FORECAST 2 SHORT
Neither Democratic or Republican
Leaders Able to Rally Additional
Support

Washington, March 11-During a
truce in the Peace Treaty debate to-
day, Senate leaders marsha led
decisive attempt to reach com
promise on Article 10. As result.
|some semblance of cohesion was res
stored among the compromise advo-
Gates on the Republican and Demo
cratic sides of the chamber, but the
total of votes that could be counted
for any compromise still was short
of the necessary two-thirds, and the
leaders expressed little hope of final
agreement.
Rescurrecting the new Repub-
lican substitute for the Article 10
reservation the Republican leaders
agreed on some changes in wording
in the hope that they might regain
the support OF the handful of Repub-
lican Senators whose refusal to sup
port the substitute yesterday start
ed general breaking-up of the whole
compromise situation. 1t was un-
derstood they had not entirely sue
ceeded tonight and il remained un-
certain whether the revised substi-
tute would be offered when the de-
bate is resumed tomorrow
The best claims that were made
tonight by the most optimistic advo-
Gates of compromise fixed the Demo
cratic support for the substitute at
80 votes and the Republican sup
port for it at 80 votes. That reck-
oning. is correct, still would leave
shortage of two votes from the Ga
necessary to ratify the treaty, and
no leader knew from what quarter
any additional strength could be
gained.

RECOMMEND TAX RATE
OF 80 CENTS ON DOLLAR
Village Auditors Estimate Expenses
of Coming Year viii Not Ex-
ceed Those of Past IL Months

The village aulitors have made their
annual report which includes a COM
pa ison with that made year ago.
Tn s COMPARISON shows an increase in
expenditures of little more than two
thousand dollars.
Nearly four times as much was ex-
pended in sprinkling and for road oil
during the village year ending March
l, 1920, as was used for these pur-
poses in 1919. On the other hand the
sewer department had to get along
with about half as much money as was
expended in 1919. Street lighting,
fire department and police department
cost little more but not so much
money was paid out in appropriations
and salaries.
The present grand list is about $780,
600 and basing the expense of the
coming year upon that of 1920, the
auditors recommend a tax OF 80 cents
on the dollar for the coming IL months
the same as last year.

Washington, March Recommen

a mandate over Armenia are under

of the American Mission under
Major. Gen. Harbord.
The report never has been publish

Wilson to transmit a copy of it in
November, but no reply was received
and last week the Senate adopted a
sound resolution asking for the docu
ment.
Reports from Paris in October
said the civilian members recommend

members opposed it. Gen Harbord

bill so as to make Gen. Pershinr he

So it approved the section permitting
the secretary of war to make the Sc
lection.
Representative Strong, republican,
Kansas, offered the amendment. de-
clared that without it Pershing s
war experience in the management of
the army will be lost" but Represen-
tative Greene, republican, Vermont
and Representative Caldwell, demo
crat, New York, contended that the
secretary of war should be free to
choose "the chief military adviser"
Gen. Pershlng's assignment as
chief-of-staff, Mr.. Caldwell said,
would be step down.
Objections by both republicans and
democrats that the general staff
would be permitted to rule the war
department and the army under the re-
organization bill resulted in the adop-
ton Of an amendment which would
prevent assumption OF administrative
functions by the staff.
Representative Johnson, republican,
South Dakota, tried to have the bill
amended so as to provide for radical
changes in the administration of mil
itary justice. A motion to include
