81 believe that masculine and feminine
natures retain their characteristics
eternally. Such remarks as that of Sir
Conan Doyle must be facetious. They
are not logical. Women are entering
business life and are learning the arts
of men, but it doesn't necessarily follow
that men are becoming effeminate just
because they are courteous enough to
help women"
TELLS WHY WOMEN
PUSH IN STREET CARS.
Col. A. w. Foreman, an assistant chief
of staff at army headquarters is quoted
In Boston az arraigning women for their
newly acquired masculine propensity for
pushing in street cars. He attributes
this new trait to the experience women
have gained in working and in riding in
rush hours.
1--WE ought to share with women the
opportunity Of keeping them feminine
in their methods, the colonel says, "but
this pushing and knocking one another
about in crowds rushing for seats in
a car is enough to remind one We are
living In a different age"
The coloners criticism is confined to
Boston, and he says he has never found
such conditions elsewhere.
| Harry B. Smith, adjutant general Of
Indiana, snorted his disapprobation Of
the British knights theory.
| "Out OF one hundred and ten millions

men who are mollycoddles," he said. II

SAYS SITUATION

President Declines to Ac-
cept New Draft Of Res

washington, March 4.-The first

senate adopted as q substitute for

representatives to the league of ma
t100n, = draft prepared by senator
adoption OF the substitute was 81 to %
and on the final vote the reservation
was adopted, SIS to II.
The adoption of the substitute was
made possible by the action OF eight
Republican senators heretofore

voted for the Walsh substitute and
against Senator Lodges motion to re-
jeet II in favor Of his original reservA-
ton. The eight Republicans Thus vot-

While the adoption Of the substi-
tute prepared by one of the strongest

might indicate that progress is about
to be made toward a compounds

very fact that Senator Walsh refused
to support his own reservation and
voted against II on the Anal roll caIl
apparently sets at rest all such the
cries In that direction Senator
Walsh explained that he proposed II
only because It was simpler In Ian

VETS IN EFFORT
TO REPEAL THE
v0[STEAD ACT
Tactics to Be Pursued at
Every Opportunity.
But Without Result.

Washington, March THE way was
definitely cleared in the house today for
fight to repeal the volstead prohi-
bition act every time an appropriation
for its enforcement comes up.
The vets gained this parliamentary
advantage as the result of decision
by Speaker Gillett holding in order a
motion to recommit the legislative.
executive and judicial appropriation
bill The motion. offered by Represen-
tative Eagon. Democrat. OF New Jer-
sey. carried Instructions for the elimi-
nation Of an appropriation Of $4,000, 600
for prohibition enforcement and SUBJ
stitution In lieu thereof an amegidment
repeating the volstead law.
The motion. of course, was defeated.
tho vote being SIS to 254. But this fea-
ture OF the matter makes little differ
once to the vets. The gratifying thing
I othem Is that they have succeeded in
establishing a precedent which will per-
init the same move every time a pro-
hibition appropriation Is proposed.
Speaker Gillett's ruling upheld that
OF Representative Tilson. Republican.
of Connecticut. who held to be in order
an amendment to the same effect by
Representative Tgoe, Democrat. OF Mis-
souri,. when the same measure was be-
ing considered in committee OF the
whole last week.
BY this action the decision becomes a
DEFINITE precedent to be followed in the
procedure OF the house. Had the speak
er's ruling been against them, the vets
could have been prccluded from at
tempting the repeal OF the dry. law by
an amendment to an appropriation bill
and would have been compelled to pro-
coed by the usual slow course Of intro
ducing regular repeal bill.
i The advantage accruing therefore II,
