there. His sister in Des Moines, on

able to locate him or his body II he

was in Audubon Saturday and stated
that he was at loss to know why

he is still alive.
While in Audubon Donaldson
roomed at the l. ID. McCarville home.
Before he left he took all his be-
longings, so he evidently did not in
tend to return.

REPUBS' RAISE
SUFFRAGE Hope
Say Endorsement by State

Will Help Cause
TO ATTEND MEETING
OF SUSSEX SOLONS

suffragists OF Delaware took greater
hope following the action Of the Re
publican State Committee and the New
Castle County Republican Committee
on Saturday afternoon in recommends
ing that the Republican members OF the
Legislature vote for ratification OF the
Federal suffrage amendment.
Whether this will result In all the
Republican senators and representa-
tives falling In line for the suffrage
amendment is not known, Of course.
but It is believed that some Republican
legislators will refuse 10 vote for the
Anthony amendment even if the Re-
publican State Committee and Cover
nor Townsend are In favor Of it.
One hopeful sign to which the suf-
fragists pointed today was that Chair
man Daniel J. Layton, Of the Repub-
llcan State Committee, and Governor
are in accord on the suffrage
question. Chairman Layton made a
speech in behalf OF the State Commit
Tee, adopting the resolution endorsing
the Federal suffrage amendment at the
committee meeting on Saturday. He is
one OF the Republican leaders in Sus-
sex county. and is regarded as head OF
a faction that has been opposing Gov
ernor Townsend, particularly as 10 the
new school code and also as a candi-
date for delegate 10 the Republican
national convention.

ton 20 this article 10 be voted on.
The vote on Frellnghuysen's resolu-
ton was II 20 50. Only Republicans ir-

The vote on the reservation showed
that Senators Wadsworth, Sutherland

their votes against ratification.
Following rejection OF the Frellng-
huysen reservation Senator Kirby,

tion also was defeated.
Concerning reports that he had re-
