 Thirty-two states have ratified the proposed nineteenth amendment to the constitution, providing for woman suffrage. The interest of the Alaska women in the question is only aca- demic They already have the vote, the act conferring it being the first act of the First Alaska legislature in 1913. The nineteenth amendment will confer no additional privileges on them, as we cant vote for President in Alaska anyway. In this territory at present the women are as fully enfranchised as the men. They have the privileges of the stronger sex Without the responsibilities and duties They are not subject to jury service and they pay no poll tax.

CONTEST ARISES IN
. LEAGUE COMMITTEE
ARISES OVER CON
TROL AND DISPOSITION OF
NATURAL RESOURCES.
SELECT NEW COMMISSIONER
Council Will Nominate a Permanent
Mandate Commission-U. S. In
Vted To Cooperate With
Commission.

Geneva The question whether
countries shall be allowed to control
and dispose at will of their natural
resources is the subject of a Suarp
cnOfiict in a committee of the League
of Nations Assembly. The contest
arose over a resolution by Gusta|e
Ador of Switzerland setting up per
manent economic and financial com
mission, one of the duties of which
would be to examine feasures for pre-
venting monOpolies in raw materials
and the means of controlling their dis
tribution.
The resolution is based on Article
% Of the covenant, which assures all
states equitable treatment. 1t is sup
ported chiefly by Italy, Switzerland
and other countries not rich in raw
materials.
One of the strongest opponents OF
the resolution Is Sir George +. Eos.
ter of Canada, who has taken the
satYle attitude as n Z. Rowell, also Of
Canada, who served notice on the AS
sembly in an impressive speech re-
Gently that any attempt to exercise
such control would be regarded as in
reference in internal affairs, TO
which Canada would never submit.
Mr.. Rowell at the same time said
that the entry of the United States
could not be hoped for if any such in
reference were attempted.
The question Of mandates is an
other difficult subject coming up soon.
The Council has on the agenda the
nomination of a permanent mandate
commission, and another committee
at the same time will take up the
general question in the form Of terms
and control of mandates. This com.
mittee, which is known as No. 6, has
recommended that the United States
be invited to cooperate unoffcially
in the study of the question Of dis
armament.
Still another important matter on
the program Of the Council is cleo
ton of a success or of Secretary
Tower as high commissioner at Dan
zig. The Council may also finally de-
eide what reply shall be made to the
German protest against approval of
the results of the Eupen- Marmedy
plebiscite. Germany contends that
the Belgian troops of occupation ex-
erted pressure on the population.

o young man who practiced medicine
in a rural district became famous and
was called in consultation in many
towns and cities because of his sue
cess in the treatment of disease. This
was DR.. Pierce who afterward moved
TO Buffalo, N. Y. He made up his
mind to place some of his medicines
before the public, and he put up
what he called his "Favorite Pre-
scription," and placed it with the
druggists in every state in the Union.
For fifty gears DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription has sold more largely
throughout the United States than
any other medicine of like character.
It's the testimony of thousands of
women that it has benefited or en-
tirely eradicated such distressing all
ments as women are prone to. 1t is
now sold by druggists in tablet form
as well as liquid.

Nuts and grains were what
Sandy Chipmunk ate more than
anything eGe. But sometimes
when he could not find enough
of those, or when he wanted a
change of food, he would eat 81
most any sort of berry, and APP
pies and pears as well. Tomatoes,
too, he liked once in a while. And
he was very fond of sunfloWer
seeds. He would not refuse a fat
insect, either. If it flew his way.
But these were not the only dain-
ties that Sandy thought good.
There was something else-some-
thing to be found in trees-for
which Sandy sometimes hunted.
And before he came home, after
finding what he was looking for,
he always wiped his mouth with
great care.
? If you had ever seen him wiping
his mouth like that, you might
have guessed that Sandy Chip
munk had been eating birds eggs
AND the reason he was so careful
to remove all signs Of his feast
was because he did not want his
mother to know what he had
been doing.

there is to know about Sandy
