Murphy was more than eager to have Z

ticket this year and Is said to be sure
OF carrying New York state for the
Camping on Doorsteps.
The suffrage leaders have carnped or
the doorsteps' of both the republican
and democratic nominees for the presi-
dency. They insist that Gov. Cox can
control the democrats in the Tennessee
legislature, and that Senator Harding
can influence the republican mem
bers. Thus far the women leaders say
the effort has been more or less per-
functory. What they would really like
would be for the two presidential can
prewar politics. whicn they believe
will be played to get the masculine sup
port in vital states. namely promises
OF reward later on and all that sort OF
thing. Presidents and candidates for
the presidency do not hesitate to use
patronage to get results and the suf-
frage leaders, while scorning such tac-
tics as highly distasteful, nevertheless
recognize those methods as the effec-
tive ones In practical politics.
The suffrage leaders are tired of reso-
lutions, pledges and public statements
assuring them of support for the Nine
teenth amendment. What they want Is
the old practical politics and n the

For enforcement

Washington. Aug. Especial RE
ports that peace negotiations between
RUSSIAN soviet authorities and the
Poles be resumed through PoIand's ac-
ceptance OF the bolshevik proposal for
new parley came from abroad to sew
eral leading diplomats today and TO
the state department. Secretary OF
state Colby was keenly Interested in
unonicial reports of probable ar
mlsttce as were diplomats who dis
cnssed the latest Developments with
him. Advices from Secretary white,
IN charge OF the American legation at
warsaw did not definitely indicate
whether the Poles have acted upon the
bolsheviks' new proposal.
Owing to the fact that first neRotias .
tions ended 90 abruptly through some
Misunderstanding led to hope that re-
sumption OF the conferences viii take
place. Today's early dispatches from
warsaw told Of stout resistance that
the Poles were making In face OF
slashing attacks by the bolsheviks in
pressing closer to Warsaw.
State department officials confess
themselves not fully informed, but by
some belief was expressed that some :
thing will happen TO prevent the cap
ture of Warsaw by soviet troops.
