DELEGATIONS SEEK
 SUPPORT BY WILSON
(BY United Press ]

Washington, Aug. 18.-Cheered by the news of Poland's decisive defeat of Russian forces, delegations of American Polish citizens called at the white house today to renew their pe- titions to President Wilson for Amer ican aid to the mother country. It is said that the president will receive the delegation.
 Reports from the white house say that the president has decided to tell the delegations that the United States will cooperate with other friendly powers to create an interna- tlonal situation favorable to the well being of Poland as an independent na- tion. However, the president and his cabinet, the delegations will be told, can not extend armed aid to Poland without the consent of congress, but that other tangible assistance can be given against Russian aggression.

REPORT PEACE TERMS
 PROPOSED BY RUSSIA
(By United Press )


 Berlin, Aug. l8.-Peace terms have been submitted the Polish peace dele gation and have been carried by them from Minsk to Warsaw, according to reports brouht here today. No verifi- cation could be had of the reports. Efforts to ascertain the nature of the terms were also unavailing.
 Berlin officials view the situation now with open minds. If terms have been submitted, it is an open ques- tion whether the Warsaw ministry will accept them. At any rate, hos tilities will be continued for days at least.
 Advices from the American mission at Warsaw by way fPosen declare that the Poles have hurled the reds back 10 kilometers on the front north west of Warsaw, recapturing terri tory for a radius of 10 miles around the capital
 A general strike in protest against the Russian-Polish war is in prog. ress in the upper Silesia basin, it is reported. In one village of that sec tlon, peasantry attacked French cav. airy placed there under the peace terms, and killed two soldiers anC wounded nine. Another mob attacked civilians thought to be favorable to the war and killed 26 women.

tBy United Press)

Nashville, Tenn, Aug. 19.- Equal suffrage became part of the basic law of the United States today when the Tennes- see legislature ratified the Sus- an B. Anthony woman suf- frage amendment. The ratifi- cation resolution was passed by the house of representatives, concurring in the resolution al ready adopted by the state senate. Tennessee's ratifica- tion gives the amendment it's required majority of 36 states of the union before 1t Is placed in effect.
 When the resolution was call ed in the house for final roll call, the vote was 49 to 47. Pro- suffrage reresentatives and spectators staged a wild dem- onstration and pandemonium reigned for some time. When it had been quieted, Speaker Walker announced that he would change his vote from a negative ballot to one in favor of suffrage, making the final vote 90 to 46.
 Speaker Walker announced that the change was made so that he would have the right as presiding officer of the house to recall the resolution for re- consideration. Despite his in tention to recall the resolution. suffrage workers all over Nash vile are bubbling over with joy and are confident that sec ond consideration by the house will not alter the action taken today.
 Today's victory in the Ten nessee legislature ends a long and well maintained struggle by American women to gain the ballot. Delaware and Wash lngton state legislatures were the last two to fail, with West Virginia, before the national center of the fight was shift ed to Tennessee. Gov. James NJ. Cox, the Democratic presi- dental nominee, and Gov. A. H. Roberts have both worked tire lessly with their party in Ten nessee to accomplish the ac- tion taken today. Senator Hard ing, the Republican nominee, also aided Volunteer state Re- publicans in putting over the ratification. The opposition represented in the negative votes came from both parties, which is true of the 50 votes which made ratification a cer- talnty.

London, Aug 1S.-The recoil of the Bolsheviki from the terrific on- slaughts of the Polish forces has talk en on the nature of a rout, according to today's dispatches from the front.
