President.

Raleigh, n. c., June 26.-Gov. T. w
Bickett today had not answered
President Wilson's telegram of last
night urging North Carolina to
ratify the Federal suffrage amend
ment..
The telegram read:
II am sure l need not point out TO
you the critical Importance of the
action of your great State in the
matter of the suffrage amendment

Commenting on the Telegram, Gov
Beckett passed the burden of ratifi-
cation on to Tennessee.
Lack Time and Money.
Il sincerely hope that the Ten
nessee Legislature will meet and
ratify the equal suffrage amendment
and thereby relieve North Carolina
of it. We have neither the time nor
the money and such action on the
part of Tennessee would save this
State the feeling of bitterness that
would surely be engendered by de-
bates on the subject"
In kilograms to Gov. Beckett, of
North Carolina, and Senators Over
man and Simmons, President Will
son yesterday directed their atten-
tion to the Importance of favor
able action" by the North Carolina
legislature on the suffrage amend
ment. The legislature will meet in
special session July 20.
Alice Paul, chairman of the Ma
tional Womans Party, said that
North Carolina will ratify If Sena-
tor Overman can be led to sup
port the cause. Gov. Beckett and
Senator Simmons, she said, have al
ready come out for ratification. and
poll has shown the majority of
the legislators in favor.
Wants Democratic Honor.
Omcials close to the President
said yesterday that he is anxious"
to have a Democratic State ratify
the amendment, and If Tennessee
fails to respond he is relying on
North Carolina.
The latest move by the National
Woman's Party, as announced by
Miss Paul, is a call by the women
of Massachusetts. directed to Gov.
Calvin Coolidge and insisting that
he give immediate expression of his
views on suffrage. The governor
was reported as having refused to
see delegation of the women, on
the ground that he would not COM
NIT himself until after his official
notification of his nomination for
Vice President on the Republican
ticket.

THREE DIRECTORS ID BE NAMED AT
 POLLS TUESDAY

The voters of Nenana will have the privilege tomorrow of electing three school directors to take the jplaces of three of the members of Ithe present board whose terms are expiring. The names of four can
 didates have been proposed, two of ,whom--President Robert Joseph Div
 en and Clerk J. H. Scott-have con- sented to serve another term in
 case the voters of the town insist upon electing them. They do not want to serve, and have become candidates only because of the fact that other candidates failed to come /; forward. Both gentlemen express the hope that candidates may yet be found to relieve them of their offices. The other two candidates are Grace Nj. Oldfeld and J. H. Miles.
 An effort also was made to induce U, A. Slippern to consent to become
 candidate for reelection, but he i is not sure that he will be in Ne mana throughout the term, and feels
 that his place, therefore, should be filled by someone else, thereby
 avoiding the necessity probably of
 special election later on.
 /! In order that the voters may have
 the fullest opportunity to express ] their desires at tomorrow's election, ! the board has decided to leave the ballots blank, and each voter will
 write in the names of the three candidates he or she desires to be
 elected Any names may be placed
 on the ballots, the only restriction being that the number of candidates
 voted for must not exceed three.
 The election will take place at
 the frehall, the official voting place of the town. The polls will open at eight in the morning and remain open until seven in the evening. Mrs. J. R. Bowen, Mrs. M. J.. Sweeney and Allan A. Johnson will serve as judges of election. -.:

BOARD REPORTS INFERIOR TOWNS
 NOI IN DANGER

There are no flu cases in In- terior Alaska, none in Cordova, and none in Anchorage, according to statement issued this afternoon by the local board of health. Health Officer Dr. M. E. Smith and Robert Joseph Diven, who, as president of the school board, is a member of the board of health, met with En- gineer in Charge Fred'k D. Browne today for the purpose of investi- gating certain reports current in Nenana regarding the approach of the flu, and they declare that they have been unable to find any trace of the disease in the Interior coun- try or at any point on the coast sufficiently close to endanger the health of Interiorites.
 Health Officer Smith is in almost daily communication with Health Officer Sutherland, of Fairbanks, and Dr. Sutherland is keeping close watch on the coast end of the Fair banks trail. Reports from Cordova indicate that the flu has not yet made it's appearance there, and should any cases develop, Dr. Suth- erland will be advised of it imme- diately. Similar precautions are being taken on the coast end of the Broad Pass trail.
 4 report received from Dr. Bee son, of Anchorage, this afternoon state that there are numerous cases of la grippe there, with some cases also at Indian river and at the end of steel. The malady is not of a severe type, however, and is not even mild form of the flu. The epidemic is now abating in Anchor age.
 Dr. Smith has advised The News that, notwithstanding the fact that no danger threatens Nenana or any other section of the Interior coun- try at present, it is the intention of the local health authorities to keep close watch on the coast dis tricts and all trails leading to the Interior, with view to taking prompt measures to safeguard the Interior should the flu make it's ap- pearance at either Cordova or An chorage.
