MEXICAN WOMEN WILL TAKE HAND
 IN UP[|FT WORK

MEXICO CITY.-Mexican women are preparing to take hand in the affairs of the Mexican republic. They intend first to eliminate social and industrial evils, and later to make a fight for political equality. This is the program of the Mexican Feminist council, national organ ization with headquarters in Mexico City.
 The council does not believe that the mass of Mexican women are at present prepared for complete suf- frage, but the council hopes eventu- i ally to make them a political force. The present Mexican government looks with favor upon their efforts, according to Senorita Elena Torres, general secretary of the council. Heads of the government, she said, advocate complete emancipation of Mexican women."
 The Feminist council has organ ized groups to teach Mexican women how their conditions may be inn proved industrially and socially. The next step, said Senorita Torres, will be organization of women work CTS in industry to demand fair and equal treatment at the hands of their employers. They will not ,countenance any bitter sex war such as has characterized the feminist movement in some European coun- tries, but expect cooperation iron, the men. The council intends to bring the Mexican women's move ment in contact with similar organ izations in other countries and to work with the women of the world for peace, disarmament, and anti imperialism.
 Senorita Torres predicts that Mexican women will create a new era of amicable relations and more complete understanding between Mexico and the United States. Lat CT, she said, the Feminist council intends to propose the formation of a Latin-American union to bring about a closer friendship, culturally, industrially and politically, between Mexico and the countries of South and Central America.

fad. Professional football happens
to be Decatur's most popular fad
at this time, and the Starch fans
are expected to support the Staley
team beyond their limitations, if
need be.
So far, the merits of the PROS
pective opponents have not entered
into the controversy. for it is as
sured that. should they meet, only
the highest class of football will be
played With the Independents
undergoing the restoration OF their
old form, the teams would meet on
practically even terms; the result
OF the game being toss-up.
The problem will be a knotty one
for the Independents management
to solve. Naturally, the Islanders
are out for all the receipts they can
draw; and it is positive that a game
at Douglas park would be of vastly
greater remuneration than a game
at the Staleys' park. While disap-
pointment over failure to negotiate
a leturn match to be played in
Rock Island would be acute in case
the Staleys decide to stage the
game, it should be remembered that
II would be a sporting proposition,
because tri-city fans have mad the
privilege OF seeing the Staleys,
while Decatur fans have not seen
the Independents.
Manager Flanagan said that he
expects to receive positive advices
within the next several days, either
for ample time in which to adver-
tise thoroughly game at Douglas
park, or to put the Independents In
readiness tor a game m Decatur.
There is chance that Decatur
could not interest sufficient eli
entele TO support the venture-just
a chance Circus methods might
succeed in promoting such a cam
paign in so short time. Anyway,
Decatur fans will have to stretch
their utmost to meet the demand.
The tri-cities are in readiness
now to comprise record breaking
on no notice whatever,
should it be decided to hold the
game at Douglas park. Only a COM
parative few could accompany the
were the team to play
In Decatur. Every Independent
supporter is an avCwed dispeliever
in the propagated superiority OF the
Staleys over the Islander: and
every mothers son and daughter,
sportively inclined. will not be sat
Isfied until they see the Staiey's
defeated by the Independents at
Douglas park. and thus avenge the
lucky victory Of Oct. II.
