CARLISLE INDEPENDENT IS-
 SUES RICE EDITION

Under the date of June 24, 1920, the Carlisle Independent, edited and pub lished by E. M. Williams, at Carlisle, issued a splendid edition devoted to the history of the origin and develop ment of the Rice Industry in Arkan- sas, which is a credit to the paper and will be of invaluable service to the rice growing section of Arkansas.
 Besides it's very efficient informa- tion about the rice industry this splen- did edition contains much information of a general character about the state of Arkansas, and especially eastern Arkansas, where opportunity awaits the farmer on every quarter section of land and every town and village in the entire section.
 Several thousand copies of this pub lication will be distributed among prospective home seekers in the North and East, and will no doubt be the means of bringing many more settlers to this section. Brinkley and Monroe county come in for nice write-up in the edition telling of the opportuni- ties in this immediate locality. An entire page is devoted to the Eastern &AFhaHSaS DSHlOHSlldtiOH alii, AiAo trated with views on the farm. A good picture of the Court House at Clarendon, also appears in the section devoted to Monroe County. as well as good sketches of several of the most prominent business enterprises in the county.
 The Independent, and all who were instrumental in compiling and pa5- fishing ;h, splendid editl3a are to be congratulated upon the success of the uadefta. ing. It is 6 gem, editorially an mechanically, ar is credit to the 7awss aper profe :. and to the business enterprise of it's publisher -Brinkley Citizen.

Get A Vision

We want to compliment the Carlisle Independent upon its special edition of recent date. It contained l44 pages and was nicely printed and bound, and was well edited. It gave com prehensive history of rice growing in Arkansas, and covered the entire rice belt. Several thousand copies of this splendid edition were printed and sent to all parts of the country, and there is no doubt but what many thousands of dollars will come to the rice belt as a result.
 The rice industry has been develop ed chiefly through the use of printers ink As a rule. the rice growers are men who are public spirited and pro gressive-not too stingy to read the local paper or subscribe to publicity funds. Our strawberry belt needs more men of this type. Wehave too many men here who are entirely too short. They want to make money, but they are too stingy to even subscribe for Progress, much less subscribe to an advertising fund. Get vision.-- McRae Progress.

VERMONT GOVERNOR KILLS
 SUFFRAGE MOVE
Refuses to Call Session of Legislature
 to Consider Ratification

Rutland, Vt., July Ex-Governor Percival W. Clement today issued a proclamation refusing to call the legis- lature in special session to make pos sible ratification of the federal amend ment for woman suffrage.
 The governors proclamation follows a conference recently held at Wash ington with Senator Harding, at which it is understood the Republican nomi- nee for president discussed with him the possibility of having ratification completed by the Republican legisla- ture of Vermont.
 In giving his reasons for refusing again to call special session, Govern or Clement said the proposed amend ment clearly invades the constitution of Vermont; that the present legisla- ture was elected before the question of ratifying the federal amendment had arisen, and that the people of the state have had no opportunity to express themselves on the issue. The gxvern- or proposed that the matter be taken up by the next legislature and urged that candidates for election be re- quired to declare themselves on 1t.
 1ofC1AiOA S1OAiiChI P1OSteS1iieitlOiA eA' serted that as it stands and is inter preted by the supreme court today, the federal constitution threatens the foundation of free popular govern ment."
 The seventeenth amendment to the constitution he said, has been lobbied through congress and state legisla- lures by federal agents, and the 18th amendment had been forced through by powerful and irresponsible orga- nizations, operating through paid agents"
 .It is now proposed to. force through the 18th amendment for wo- man suffrage in the same manner and also without the sanction of the free men," Governor Clement said.
 q have been asked to overlook these considerations as a matter of party expediency, but this is a mat ter of principle, not expediency, and the party that invades a well es- tablished principle of popular gov ernment will suffer in the end.'

Making Improvements

The Arkansas State Rice Milling Company is taking advantage of the vacation season by making some much needed improvements and getting everything in shape for the coming rice crop.
 Several large bins and an elevator are being installed for the handling of rice in bulk. We failed to learn the capacity of the elevator but are satis- fled that it will be large enough to handle the greater portion of the crop in the Carlisle territory.
 Manager Crandall tells us that he hopes to finish the work in time to give the men a two or three weeks vacation before the mill opens for the seasons run.
 The rice mill is our largest industry and is of untold worth to Carlisle and vicinity. It carries a large pay roll, and the money to a great extent is spent with the home people. They employ their help by the year and al- ways have men for every emergency. They give employment to several men during the interval between one year $ run and the next and are paying out money all the year round which is of great benefit to our merchants and other lines of business.
 The mill paid out nearly million and half last season on very rn- ferior crop of rice, which brought much prosperity to our rice growers, many of whom have increased their acreage, and have better equipped their farms for the coming crop.
 The present conditions indicate a much better crop than that of last season, notwithstanding the planting season was very unfavorable for sew eral weeks. The late planted rice is making good progress, and in most instances the growers are getting suf- ficient water. The rains in some sec tions have been great help in the way of saving fuel, which has, been scarce in several instances.

 IS ESSENTIAL
 ON EAST SIDE

s"In making a haSty survey of the district of the east side I should say that the one thing that that territory needs and needs badly is a large well equipped playground for the children" said Mrs. Margaet Long of Washington, f1eld director for the National Catholic Welfare association
 Mrs. Long is making a short visit in the city.
 "I do not mean a park she con- tinued. 'I mean large public play ground for all children where there
 would be no danger of them running
 out on the street and getting hurt. A
 playground would be essential to the
 health of the children Of that neigh
 borheod.'
 When asked if she thought the
 playground already maintained by St. Vincent's community house was mad equate, she said:
 "The community house playground is only drop in the bucket to what is needed. There should be a we'll equipped playground maintained by the city of Bridgeport"
 Mrs. Long has been travelling from coast to coast for two years making small and large surveys of Catholic community houses under the direc- ton of the N. c. W. A in Washing ton. ''I am highly pleased with the community work going on at the Bar mum avenue house, she said. eve have there now four highly trained secretaries who know their work and are doing it to the height of their ability. The work is radiating out and is receiving, fine response from the neighborhood in which it is To- cated. I cannot say too much in praise of the wonderful cooperation of all agencies either public and, private in this city with the community house. The cooperation of said agencies is l ont found in all cities but here in Bridgeport it is unique and wonder ful.''
