RECOGNIZING WOMEN VOTERS

The action of the Democratic convention in doub- ling the size of the Democratic National Committee and filling the additional places thus created in that organization with women is proof that the delegates are awake to the situation which exists today in politics and not making the mistake Of m1nlmlz- ing the importance of the suragist support in those states wherein women have the right or suliraee The Republican party in it's Chicago convention 1g nored request suffragists of Republican per suasion for similar action and created profound dis satisfaction by it's refusal to act.
 Already leaders of the National Womans party have sounded warning to both the big parties against continued neglect statement recently issued by Miss Alice Paul, Chairman of that party threatened to bolt third party unless definite action is taken regarding ratification of the sui frage amendment. Miss Paul claims to have spoken for the bulk of the 17 100000 women voters of the country Even a majority of that number would have vital effect the outcome of any national election in which the two big parties were otherwise evenly matched. And her claims cannot be over- looked.
 Equal represent aton of women the Democratic National Committee is but step in the direction of progress toward national suffrage urged by the It. in itself, will not completely satisfy the leaders but the willingness of the Democrats to ln- augurate the system of equal representation will cause the look with greater favor on that party than its opponents who have already refused consider like proposal. The convention, now ever has placed itself record as favoring ratifi- cation of the suffrage amendment in commenting the action of the Governors of North Carolina and Ten nessee in calling special sessions of State Leg1sla- lures to consider the amendment.
 This action done at the request Of Presi- dent Wilson, who urges prompt ratification. The convention is standing sodly behind the President this matter well as in others. Both Tennessee North Carolina have chance to make good within the next few weeks and should they take favorable action chances for Democratic victory next Fall will be materially boosted
 Not only the sufiragists disgrunted at the refusal the G. O. P leaders to admit them into the party counsels and control basis of equa representation, but they also disgusted witt the general trend and results of the Chicago con vention. Some of them have openely avowed thei feelings and have gone far to announce thei intention of opposing the platform and nominees

Prohibition


 There's discontent and great unrest, There's grumbling and sedition; Americans have made the test,
 And tired of prohibition.
 In spite of the fact that any man who dares protest against existing conditions is chased as a rummy, and booze holster and a degener- ate, we have recently heard a half dozen manufacturers and another half dozen efficiency men complain ing that prohibition is running pro, duction. They claim that mills and plants that showed from 95 to 100 per cent production under the old order of things, now show A to 50 per cent production in spite of the and offered a big bonus. This isn't sabotage. It is discomfort. A prom inent steel man told us the other day that return of beer and light wines would be a blessing to his industry He made this statement knowing that any man who favors beer ism respectable" and classed by the bis fellows with the full cellars as "common." The feeling that the Volstead law is unjust and un-Ameri can is now reflected by 90 per cen of the "common" people. And they do most of the voting.

PUNISHMENT NEEDED

The action of Philadelphia grand jury in re- turning indictments against persons alleged to be implicated in the escape of G. C. Bergdoll the commendation throughout the entire country The notorious and the seeming with which Bergdoll made his escape and has succeeded in defeating efforts made to recapture him has brought the matter strikingy to the fore in na- ional
 It hardly possible that unless there was complicity among his guards, unbelievable stu pidity the part of the authorities his getaway could have been accomplished The order for his release from confinement issued by Adjutant General Peter c. Harris, and there is apparently ,ood reason to believe that he convinced of the good faith of Bergdols attorneys in asking for such step The attorneys themselves to have established alibi in the matter and substantia ted heir claim that they honestly expected to return heir client to prison at the specified time. But the act remains that the escape could hardly have been even had unexpected opportunity presented itself. t seems inevitable that it must have been : ,eved and planned to the last detail weeks ahead of time.
 Whoever aided in the escape committed a crim- inal act that demands punishment Whether he be xecutive subordinate in position makes no diff erence. In fact, if officials lent their aid, or were serious than if it some one occupying m inferior position. And the punishment should made to fit the crime.

This would be a nice quiet world if none of us would say anything until we had something to say.
 Nature plays no favorites. A girl who takes graduate course in Culture at Bryn Mawr snores just as loudly as an ordinary working girl.
 Another reason why women look funny is because an American dame with a shape like bale of cotton has to wear the same kind of clothes as those worn by some skinny French woman who sets the style pace.
 Here's a subject for debate by some Literary Society: Docs the Nimona cause more divorces than the Pajama?"
