17,5OO,OOO WOMEN TO
 VOTE FOR PRESIDENT

Whether Connecticut becomes the thirty-sixth state to ratify or not, whether any state does before the pres idential elections, it remains a fact that the women of fifteen states al- ready have full suffrage, eight have presidential suffrage alone, four have presidential plus municipal, one has presidential plus the primary and two have primary suffrage alone. The number of women over 21 in these thirty states is 17,500,O0o, so that g large proportion of the total number of women over voting age in the coun try, estimated at 27 ,oO0, 900, would be entitled to vote in the presidential elections of 1920 even without ratifica- ton of the Federal Suffrage Amend ment
 The question of. on which party sev- enteen and a half million will lay the blame for failure to ratify will, from present prospects, prove in itself a sufficient urge to both major parties to bring ratification to a speedy close.
 Connecticut women have given a good illustration of the way women in general consider party allegiance as subordinate to allegiance to the major principle of suffrage for women. Of course "Connecticut women bsva strong party feeling, and of course they intend to make their party affilia- tions,'' says Miss Katharine Ludineton 'ebut so long as any state leaders of tbe dominant party in Connecticut block the way to ratification of the Federal Suffrage Amendment, the open door to Connecticut women's suffrage, just so long will we be able to restrain our en- thusiasm for utilization with that par ty."
 It was the Connecticut women who made public their intention to stay out of Republican ranks as long as on that party rested the odfum of the unenfran- chised state of the Connecticut wom en, and it was the Connecticut wou- ell again who refused to attend the Re publican banquets and dinners to which they were so urgently invited as part of the program of political festivities provided for the women who attended the great suffrage convention in Chi cago last February.
 The feeling of Connecticut women in this regard seems to be characteristic of the women of the United States Women the country over are watching this crisis at the finish with a sharp witted balancing of the blame, state by state.

 Love, politics and intrigue combine to make gripping situations in @'The Woman God Sent" the new Selznick Picture featuring Zena Keefe, which opened a three days engagement at the Poli theatre yesterday.
 One of the most startling acts in vaudeville is presented by Ralph Dun bar in the ~White Hussars."
 Opening with a, blare of brass, the act goes into an octette, rendering many novel harnronies and returns through the phases of the military band to a review of the most eccen- 'tric jazz. In Monohan and company's act the man does unusual toe-Skat- ing, skating upon a revolving barrel
 Mattylie Lippard discfoses one of the most gorgeously dressed women who yet has appeared in vaudeville. This act will go down upon the sea- sons record as a distinct innovation and an eye-appeal
 John c. Sparks and company, in the p1aylet "A Friendly Feud,'' is ably supported by a well chosen cast.
 An unusual studio skit is shown by Nelson and Daley. Pathe News and Pathe Review close a sure-fire bill of photoplay and vaudeville, making a completet change from the earlier program of the week.

THIS IS EMERGENCY WEEK.
Forty-eieht Women Here-one From Every State Tn the
 Union.

This is Emergency Week" in Con- necticut, and they are all here,-mem- bers of the Emergency Suffrage Corps, 48 strong, one from every state in the Union, each and everyone with her own states own particular plea to Con necticut's governor to call a special session of Connecticut's legislature because the delay in the ratification of the Federal Suffrage Amendment is crippling the woman strength of the whole nation in the coming presi- dential elections
 They say that of the $500, ,OO0 wo- men left unenfranchised by Connecti- cuts delay, many are Republicans and them in the coming campaign; many are Democrats and the Democratic women leaders want their votes to be counted.
 Governor Holcomb has said that there is no emergency which justifies him in calling a special session of Connecticut's legislature to act upon the ratification of the Federal Suffrage Amendment. Women of the 30 states where women can vote for president this year want the help of their sisters in the IS states where women cannot take their part in this great presi- dential year. They are saying: This is not Connecticut's isolated problem. This is our problem-the problem of Republican and Democratic women voters
 Several of the women of the corps are women of special significance in the Republican party councils, mem bers of state committees, delegates-at- large to the National Republican Con vention, etc They are pointing out the handicap upon their efforts to swing the women voters of the coun- try into the Republican ranks so long as Republican legislatures have failed to ratify the suffrage amendment.

MORE LAND TO
 BE GIVEN FOR TOBACCO CROPS

Lexington, Ky, May 6-Acreage of the United States to be devoted this year to tobacco raising probably will increase by about 10 per cent, over 1919, says a review made public by the Department of Markets, UniYers- ity of Kentucky.
 Kentucky will change the least in acreage of any of the great tobacco producing states,'' the review recites,- while indications are that crop acreage will be increased from 10 to IA per cent. in the Carolinas and Virginia and about 500 per cent in Georgia, the latter increase meaning that farmers Of Georgia are taking to tobacco as a means of utilizing areas attacked by the boil weevil and now unsuitable for cotton
 Concerning the world tobacco sit nation, the report which is based on information from authoritative do- nestle and foreign sources, says for eign acreage seems to have increased very little over 1919, but condition of the crop is greatly improved and this indicates there should be a. con siderable increase in production.
 Reciting that at this time, 8 year ago, there were vast quantities held in the United States, the bulletin de- clares that this year about equal, if not greater, stocks are held in the country. England, Holland and Scandinavia lind themselves with markets still glutted with tobacco shipped to them from the United States from August to December, 1919, at which time the overplus Of tobacco in the United States was lift ed and moved across the Atlantic, either for cash or on credit, in or der to free this country's markets for the coming selling season. There for, ''the report says, European countries this year apparently will not demand tobacco in as great quan- titles as before.''
 Delving into the probable price of tobacco for 1920, the report says, with acreage now planned and if a normal yield per acre is produced, the price of all bur1ey, except the highest type of cigarette leaf, should show a marked falling off during the market season of 1920, and even the highest quality leaf may suffer from competition with the Virginia type, if this is produced in anywhert near the quantity, indicated by the acre age p1anned.''
 Relative to the dark tobacco situa- ton, the survey says, tfthe present de sultant of two factors-the present situation of foreign exchange and the fact that growers were either unwilI-

WEST END.

Tonight the management of the West End theatre will offer it's pa irons an elaborate version of Robert Louis Stevenson's famous story of Dr. JekyIl and MT. Hyde. This story, which ranks high amoong the master pieces of English literature, is per- haps one of the most popuhaA, as well as widely read. of tho classics of our language.
 The author of the story, like many of the other leading figures in the his tory of English literature, in most of his works chose the subject of a man who bartered his soul in return for some fancied benefit.
 In Goethe's Faust we have a story which resembles Jekyll and Hyde in its tragic note, while the similarity between Shakespeare's Macbeth and Stevenson's story is extremely strik- ing in their spiritual aspects. The picture will hold the place of honor at the West End theatre for the last time tonight-other features of, the bill will be of the usual high standard set by this popular playhouse.

The management assures it's patrons of entertainment of the most hilarious kind in this screen version of a famous farce, for it is vehicle ideally suited to the fun-making talents of Taylor Holmes.
 The farce concerns the adventures of Bob Bennett. who goes a week on a wager telling nothing but the truth to everyone he meets; and aside from getting him cordially disliked by everybody, he gets his three best friends ''in bad'' with their wives

 France, however" says the re- port, lis likely to become a heavier buyer of American dark tobacco within the near future, provided that English exchange rectifes itself, be- cause any improvement in English exchange is quite likely to be re- fected in an improvement in French exchange rates. This statement does not apply as strongly, if at all, to Italian exchange rates and hence the situation as to an Italian market is not encouraging.

He is, without doubt, about as funny a man as the screen now boasts of.
 Gerald Griffin and O. are the fea- lures on the vaudeville stage This offering brought forth hearty rounds of applause last night MT. Griffin has an excellent tenor voice The comedy in the offering is very funny and on the whole the acts marks up to about the best that has been along here in some time. Bowers and Saunders, two pretty misses, have good deal of personality coupled with their vocal ability.

In the Welfare of Those Who
Will Help Themselves.

Now that Christmas of 1919 has
come and passed into history with all
the rest of the nineteen hundred odd
years that have elapsed since the
event that gave rise to the years hap
piest celebration, the minds Of men
and women turn to the new year, and

The fact that the greater part Of
these resolutions ara broken before
the new year is many weeks or months
old should not deter us from continu-

we at least will be among those who
at the end of 1920 will have the salts

fully kept the compact with ourselves.
Self-denial has ever been the main
theme of the major part Of these new
year resolutions. In those almost for
gotten times, before the memorable
July l, 1919, the closing night OF the
year was favorite time for bidding
farewell forever to John Barleycorn
and his allies-the bubbling wine and
the foaming stein.
My Lady Nicotine also received
many a sad Jolt, from which he recov-

was loudest in his protestations that

the seductive charms that come from
the weed was in a few months, or q
short time at best, drawing solace
from the pipe of briar or meerchaum,
or from fragrant Havana, stogie or
cigarette.
OF course there were countless other
resolves that were given more or less
publicity around the festal boards
that groaned and some time roared
because of the choice viands and the
tempting decanters and iced pals that
adorned the tables. but in the main
these mentioned were prime favorites.
And self-denial was the principal.
