Coerce States Into Action
Washington, June cc.-Senator
Harding, the Republican presidential
candidate. told a deputation Of suf-
fragists today that which he could not
with propriety attempt to force any
state to expedite action on the woman
suffrage amendmen, he would recon-
mend ratification If any state authori-
ty sought his opinion.
The nomiAee's views we're present
ed to a delegation of rs suffragists
from 81 states and the District of Co.
l1tnbia who urged the senator to use
his influence to have the 3sth state
ratify the amendment. Some of the
women made yelled threats of sup
porting third party unless ratifica-
ton of the amendment was completed
through action of a Republican state
Legislature.

est in the cons,unmation of tn, WON

II voted for it in the Senate and :,

as faithfully as anything he may do.
Nothing would please me more
than to have ratification made effec-
tive in the elections of next Novem-
Der. This desire sincerely spoken.
does not conflict with my determine
ton that / could not with propriety
attempt to force any state legislative
representative action in violation of
his own sense of duty. SO far I am
only a party nominee. In the latter
capacity I would not wish any party
to believe me inclined to trespass or
to assume to WELD action. If state
representatives want my opinion or
help to consummate suffrage, I frankly
will commend the thing YOU desire,
but I cannot impose demand, though
I personally hope to see women's suf-

Military Force Is Adequate
BOnar Law Tells Commons

London, June 22-Andrew Bonar
Law, governorment spokesman, re-
plying to a question in the House Of
Commons today, declared that he
considered there was an adequate
military force in Londonderry. This
view also was held by the chief Sec
rotary for Ireland, he said.
Mr.. Bonar Law said the govern
ment had ordered General Camp
bell, commanding officer in that dis
trict, to proceed from Belfast to
Londonderry with full power to deal
with the situation as he saw fit.
The questioner. who apparently
was not satisfied with Mr.. Bonar
Laws answer. gained leave from the
House for a general discussion of the
situation tonight.

SEEKS FAIR RETURN

Th1s company, as stated, is a re-
organization of the l.. A. G. W., and
its capital stock is the same in
amount as the L. A. & w. bond is
sue-those bond holders bidding in
the property. Therefore, in the re-
ownership, there was wiped out the
following L. A. & w. securities;
$2,40O.OOO worth of common stock;
$6OO,OO of preferred stock: $614,OOO
gold notes, and about 100000 .of
bank and other loans.
All Of this represented actual
cash investments in the property to
a greater or less degree, upon which
fair return should properly be ex-
pected. All this. however, has been
eliminated, and in the deficit for the
first five months of 1920, no allow
ance has been made for any inter-
est returns upon the capital stock of
the company. which represents far
more than it's face value in actual
cash investment-and upon which
the investors are entitled, they say,
to reasonable income. 1t is for
the purpose of obtaining sufficient
revenue properly to maintain the
property and put the company in a
position to finance needed improve
ments, such as the ten new inter-
urban cars now under order, that
the increase is being asked.
1t is the policy of the present
board of directors, composed almost
entirely of Maine men, to rehabili-
tate the property and give the peo-
pie of central Maine, the utmost to
be desired in the way of electric car
service. To do this, funds must be
available, with the assurance that
the. money received in additional
fares goes into the operation, devel-
opment and improvement of the
property.
Last winter. with its abnormal
conditions, resulted in severe losses
to all transportation companies. Had
conditions remained stable, these
losses might have been absorbed;
but with the constantly increasing
operating expense, together with the
immense payroll increase, the adj
vance in fares is imperative, to en-
able the company to be kept in safe
operating conditions and able to rem
der the service necessary to the trav-
cling public of this section.

this city. The complete and partially
revised returns gave Beedy 3,473;
Clarke. 3,44S: Davies, 2,616; Marshall,
1,014; Mitchell, 1850, and Simpson,
$3.50.
Mayor Clarke said he would not
make an inspection of the ballots to
determine the exact count. He
pledged his support to Mr.. Beedy.

the night included those from MEM
bers of the Third Maine Infantry in
training at Camp Devens, Mass. The
soldiers cast a total vote Of only 1S9
votes for governor and Al for Con-
gresham in, the first district. e.

likely to look into the reasons why
his neighbor's bale brought seventy
five cents or one dollar pound, un-
der these conditions, than if he sold
his bale separately for thirty cents

are the best varieties to grow on their
soils and in their section. The ad-
vantages to the farmers in a COM
munity or county growing similar
varieties of cotton, corn and other
crops, raising the same breeds of live
stock, and in putting their products
on the market in uniform condition and
quality and in large quantities are
simply beyond belief to those who
have not learned the lesson in the way
which collective marketing surely
teaches it.
These lessons of the value of uni
formity, quality and quantity in the
products marketed are worth much
more to the farmers of the South than
any increase in price which they will
receive through cooperative market
ing, even though We admit the fact
that the direct increase in price alone
is sufficient to make such marketing
desirable.-The Progressive Farmer

amply sufficient to make the eff
- Is profitable, but the indirect re-
suits are even more valuable.
Better marketing and especially CO.
operative marketing is the greatest
aid to better production. When a
product from several farms is pooled
or marketed collectively, the quality
of the individual farmers product and
the specific defects which it may have
are brought to the attention Of the
producer in the most forceful way
possible. He suffers a reduction in
price, and the fact that his neighbors
receive a better price on the same
market and under identical conditions
drives home the lesson that the quail
ty and condition of a product deter
mine largely its market value. When
he markets his product separately he
may excuse or explain lower price
on the ground that the market was
off the day he sold, or that some pref
udice or combination was responsible
for his failure to get as much as re-
ceived by neighbor, but if his prod
uct is marketed along with that of his
neighbor by the same person and un-
uiesN identical market conditions and
brings lower price, and this is re-
peated few times, the lesson is sure
Iy driven home that the quality or
condition of the product is responsl-
BILE for the difference in price re-
'.ceived. This effect surely comes and
is driven home with force no matter
where the grading is done. Collective
marketing is the one sure and effec-
tive means of securing the ,produc-
ton of better products and the put
ting of them in the best condition to
meet market demands.
But perhaps a still more important
result of community or cooperative
marketing is the force which it ex-
erts toward securing uniformity in
variety and kind of products.
The statement is often made that
it is of great value to any community
to produce the same variety or kind
of product and in large quantity.
For instance, a half dozen men pool
their cotton crops. The fifty bales
are marketed together, but of course
each bale is sold on its own merits.
There may be one bale that at present
would bring seventy-five cents or one
dollar a pound and others that would
bring thirty, forty, and sixty
cents a pound. The man who sells
