.CALLSON WOMEN
BEREADY TOYOTE
Kenosha Women Urged to
Register as Electors at
August Registration
WOMAN FOR SHERIFF?

Mrs. Henry NJ. Youmans, Waukesha,
secretary Of the Associate State Cen
trail Committee of the Republican
party, has sent letter to Kenosha
women urging them to be prepared to
take upon themselves all the rights of
franchise at the coming national cleo
ton. The women are warned that it
Will be necessary for them to register
II they desire to vote. The registra-
tlon of electors in Kenosha this year
will take place on August S1st and
September 7th. 1t is expected that
more than twenty-five hundred Keno
sha county women will be registered
as electors at this time. While it is
yet uncertain as to just how far the
women of the county will have the
right of suffrage under the present
Wisconsin law, they are given the
right to vote for presidential cleo
tors. It is regarded as certain that be-
fore the fall primaries and elections
are held the women Of Kenosha county
will have received the full right of
franchise by the endorsement Of the
suffrage amendment by one of the states
now having it under Consideration.
Would Be Sheriff--Settle With Women.
The fact that women are very liable
to vote in the county primaries and at
the county elections is causing consid-
cradle concern among. candidates for
county Offices. These candidates, have
the same uncertainty as to organiza-
tion for the primary as some Of the
city officials had just before the city
election. The addition of the women
vote in Kenosha county is certain to
bring complications. 1t will double
the voting strength of many of the
precincts in the county and ii is de-
clared that women of the rural dis
triets are determined to take full adj
vantage of the rights given them by
the amendment.
1t is even possible that before the
primary campaign is closed the gates
may be opened for the election Of a
woman sheriff in Kenosha county. It
is said that one woman in the county
land she is widely known woman
has declared that she may enter the
primary race as a Republican candidate.

There has been much said of campaign funds
and the work Of pre-convention campaign man
ayers tor some months past. But, if the presi-
dent himself be excepted, what aspirant for the
presidency is there who has had the publicity
that Mr. McAdoo has had through public
sources, such as the railroad administration,
the liberty lean and war savings organization,
and the internal revenue organization? And
has had more partisans of himself on the public
payrolls? Could a private campaign organiza-
ton possibly be built up which would match
this public enginery for publicity and organized
effort? Talking of campaign funds, anything
thus far mentioned, raised from private sources
in behalf Of any candidate, is of pygnly proper
tons compared with the value of the propa-
ganda and organized support ny. McAdoo has
obtained as public official Certain other Of
ficials have sought to do likewise and with some
success but not as successfully as Mr.. McAdoo

GRAND OLD MAN

Sam Gompers rightly belongs in that world
class of honored and useful citizens, the class
of Grand Old Men There aren't many in the
class living today, but there is quite a lengthy
roll of them when you begin back with Meth
usaleth and come down to June, 1920.
England has had her Gladstone; France
her Foch; Germany her Wagner; Russia her
ToIstoi and 50 forth and so forth, for genera
ton. The United States of today isn't lack
ing Grand Old Men. There's Tom Edison, for
instance, and goodly sprinkling of white
haired leaders here and there. all over the
country With them you must rank Sam Com

CONFESSIONS oF a BAND LEAnER,

II,
And now for the confession of a
band leader and the reason that a
circus band is different from any
other. Did you ever notice how you
can tell a circus band from any other
collection Of musical instruments the
minute you hear it? And yet, probably
you've never known the reason.
Therefore, allow to be introduced
one Prof. John Phillips, leader of the
combined bands of the Sparks Big
Three Ring Circus which is to exhibit
here on Friday, July 10th. Also allow
to be introduced Prof. Phillips expla-
nation of why a circus band is diff
ferent." "The whole thing lies in one
instrument" Prof. Phillips said the
other day sThat one instrument is
the slide trombone. Without the slide
trombone the circus band would not
exist. 1t carries the whole weight of
the music and its quick changes are
what gives the music Of circus band
its originality. Just listen closely to
the bands of the circus when we come
to Kenosha and you'll find that we
have more slide trombones than three
or four bands usually have. But we
don't call them slide trombones. They
are slip horns'p
And SO it is that soon there will be
the blaring music Of the slip horns,
for, circus day is not far off and they
will be played not only in the parade,
but in the performances themselves
which take place at two and eight p. m.

READY IN FALL
Nash Plant in Milwaukee
Will Soon Be Ready to
Turn Out Cars.
LIKE KENOSHA PLANT


With factory buildings nearing com.
pletion and much of the machinery in
stalled indications are that the new
Nash Four will be in production in the
early Fall. The new Milwaukee fact
ory of The Nash Motors company is
thoroughly modern in construction and
1t IS being equipped with machinery
for volume production of cars of value,
The factory when completed will
comprise a power-plant, foundry, ma
chine shop, drop forge department,
body building plant and sheet metal
plant. The cost of this plant will run
into the millions and it ultimately
will be as great manufacturing. insti-
tuition as the parent factory at Keno
sha.
Shows Growth Of Company.
The four cylinder car factory of The
Nash Motors company is. concrete
illustration of the growth Of the COM
pany during the past four years. At
the main factory in Kenosha every
inch Of available ground is being utiI-
lied in the production Of six-cylinder
cars and trucks and number of new
buildings have been added during the
past twelve months
With the completion of buildings and
the installation of machinery in the
Milwaukee plant production Of The
Nash Four will begin and sample cars.
it is expected will be in the hands of
all Nash dealers before snow flies.
Use straight Line Method.
The "straightsline" production meth
Cd wherei mach operation follows
another in logical sequence, will be
carried out in the Nash Milwaukee
plant. This method has been followed
at the Kenosha factory Of The Nash
Motors company since the plant was
taken over four years ago by Mr.. C. w.
Nash and his associates. 1t makes
possible volume production with max
imun efficiency, is responsible for the
elimination Of ''lost motion" and con-
sequently is large factor among these
elements which contribute to low over

Bolivia Claims africa,
Says Pan-An1erican Envoy
Departing Financier Declares
His Country VIII Pay Peru
and Chile for Port

J. L. Tejada, chairman of the Bolivian
delegation to the Pan-American Finan-
cial Congress, said last night that his
nations prime ambition was to OBJ
tain the seaport Of africa He spoke
at a farewell dinner to the Bolivians
at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. Ex-
Senator James A. O'Gorman, another
speaker, said that it was ''thc wish Of
all" that Boliva's ambition be graft
fed.
africa is claimed both by Peru and
Chile, as we'll as by Bolivia. Mr..
Tajada said that Bolivia was ready to
recompcnsc those nations for their
claims, but would not consent by so
doing to recognize the precedence of
the claim of either over that Of Bo-
livia. Bolivian africa would be a
guarantee of peace, he said, and what
ever nation. controlled the city it must
remain a seaport used almost ex-
clusively for the benefit of Bolivia.
"ln this time and hour Of justice" )"
he said, "the striking feature OF which
has been heard in every part of the
earth, we claim before the world the
re-integration of our territory by there
being granted to Bolivia an outlet to
the sea.
"You Americans of this generation
now see the results and enjoy the
benefits of your forefathers-far dis
tant vision and interest for your well
fare-and we want you and the world
to permit and aid US to do for our
children and coming generations what
your noble ancestors did so splendidly
for you Is it too much for us to ask i?
"Thus would be cut out and elm
mated the one sore spot in the inter
national relations Of our continent.
That port has never been of any use
to any other nation than Bolivia. 1t
is now exclusively devoted to Bolivian
commerce, and in the future to what
ever nation it will belong it will only
be a service port for Bolivia"
