TENNESSEE TO
FACE SUFFRAGE
VOTETOMORROW
States Greatest Orators Pre-
pare for Spectacular
Battle.
SIDES PICK SPEAKERS

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Aug. IA
second attempt to prevent action on
the ratification of the federal wom-
ans suffrage amendment in the leg
islature was defeated today when a
resolution which would have de-
ferred action on the amendment un-
til the. regular session of the legisla-
ture in January, 1921. was tabled
without a record vote.
NASHVILLE, Aug. 1.-THE suffrage
amendment to the federal constitution is
scheduled to be voted on by both houses
of the Tennessee general assembly to-
morrow, according TO plans Of leaders In
the fight for ratification.
Tonight will be featured by a grim
battle between eminent constitutional au-
thorities on both sides before hearing
of the joint committees on constitutional
amendments of the legislature.
One result of the hearing is 10 postpone
until some undetermined date the huge
mass meeting suffra &c opponents had ar
ranged for at the Ryman auditorium.
A display Of legal acumen and forensic
brilliance unequaled in the history OF
the statehouse is expected when the legal
luminaries of the suffragists and anti
suffragis unIimber their heavy artillery.
It will bark back to the days Of Henry
Clay and Daniel Webster in the United
States senate when constitutional proby
lens occupied the minds of congress.
The limitation of the matter subject to
debate to the constitutionality of ratifca-
ton by an extra session of the Tennessee
legislature has prevented the argumen.
of many other subjects which anti-rati'
hcationists had expected TO use with tell
ing effect, and is considered suffrage
victory.
Both sides already have made tenta
tive states of their speakers.
The suffrage cause will be presented
by Frank NJ Thompson, attorney gen
eral of the state, upon whose official
ruling Gov. Roberts decided TO call the
extra session: United States Senator
McKeller. william Guilford Dudley.
Hon. James B. Fowler of Knoxville, who
was assistant attorney general of the
United States under the Taft admins
tration, and Charles T. Gales, former
attorney general Of Tennessee.
Arguments that the state constitution
inhibits ratification. despite the supreme
court decision in the Ohio referendum
case. will be made by Miss Charlotte
Rowe of Washington, D. C., field secre-
tary Of the National American Associa-
ton Opposed to Woman Suffrage;
Judge Joseph Higgins. Nashville, presi-
dent Of the newly organized Tennessee
constitutional league; Judge G. II. Till
man. Nashville.
One other speaker Will represent the
cause Of the suffrage opponents; whether
it will be Hon. Foster Y. Brown OF
Chattanooga or Congressman Finis u.

with the views of this government, it
was stated at the state department to-

While the matter of recognition of Gen.
Wrangel has not been considered by this
nation, 1t was indicated strongly that If
the anti bolshevik leader shows strength
and gains the support of the Russian
people, this government may consider
recognizing him.
No confirmation of the French recog-
milton of Gen. Wrangel has been re-

LARGE INCREASE
IN HOSPITAL FEES
New Accounting System
Swells Exchequer.

Fees collected at the City hospital from
the government for disabled soldiers,
from patients who receive money under
the workmen's compensation law and
from private citizens who do not desire
to be considered charity patients were
increased $50 per cent during the first
six months of 1920 over the same period
in 1918, Dr. Harry Foreman, superin-
tendent, announced today.
The increase is due to the system In
augurated and carried out by Mrs Betty
Holtsclaw, private secretary to the SUI
perintendent who is in charge Of the
hospital accounting system, DR.. Fo1e-
man said.
ATTENTION GIVEN
TO COLLECTIONS.
Until Mrs. Holtsclaw started the sys.
tematic effort to collect fees to which
the hospital is rightfully entitled the
collections were nominal.
In many cases in which the patients
hospital bills were to be taken care of
through the provisions of the work
mems compensation act. the hospital
never got the money because there was
no one to run down the circumstances
city was entitled to the money.
The hospital has also avoided the usual
prolonged difficulties attendant upon
collecting a bill from the government
through the correctness and dispatch
with which the processes required by
the United States Public Health Service
have been fulfilled, DR.. Foreman said.
While collections of fees TO which the
hospital is clearly entitled have been In
creased. collections from private patients
have been greater.
NO EMBARRASSMENT
CAUSED PATIENTS.
DR. Foreman stated that this was due
not TO any attempt on the part of hos
pital authorities to make private patients
feel Ike they had to repay the city, but
because many patients have been fnan-
cially able and have requested that they
be permitted to pay at least part Of the
expense
Figures compiled by Mrs. Holtschaw
show that the total collections for the
first six months Of this year were sl0.-
Sab, as compared with s271e.29 for the
same period in 1918, showing a gain Oh

Slams Amazon Guard

Siam Is one of the few countries
which boast of corps of women po-
lice. The members of this amazon
guard are all old and hornely. They
wear uniform. but are not armed.
Their chief duty Is to nc. ~ gate
keepers Of the inner. or womens pal
ace ut Bangkok.
They follow any stranger who enters
the palace and remain with him until
he takes his departure. They see that
there Is no mischief made aud that no
one makes love to the royal wives and
women. Men who have business inside
the palace-doctors. architects. car
penters, electricians. ete.-enter the
palace freely, but are always accom-
panied by some of the amazon guard.
The palace has some difficulty In re-

hard, the pay poor and the qualifica-
