23,744 REGISTERED
TO VOTE IN ELECTION
FROM WAYNE COUNTY

Registration figures for this county,
made up at the auditors office today,
show that 23,744 voters have signified
their intention of casting a ballot in
the November election. This is an
increase of 10000 over the 1916 reg
istration and $4,000 over that in 1918,
when a large number of voters were
out of the county.
The increase in this years figures
is due to the number of women who
will exercise the right to vote for the
first time. Although the exact pro-
portion of men and women registered
for the election this year is not known,
officials believe that the women will
register at least 40 per cent as many
names as the men, and possibly more

five ALLIED POWERS
ARE HERE TO STUDY
PROBLEMS OF CABLES
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Oct. S-Delegates
from five of the allied and associated
powers met today at the state depart
ment in the first preliminary session
of the international communications
conference. Representatives of France,
Great Britain, Italy, Japan and the
United States were present.
Foremost of the problems to be
settled at the preliminary conference
is the disposition of the German cables
seized by France, Great Britain and
Japan at the beginning of the war
and of which the United States pro-
poses to claim a share.
The program of the main confer
ence and the place and date of meet
ing also are to be distributed at the
preliminary sessions which are ex-
pected to continue for at least a
month.
Discussion Of the South American
cable situation, it is now understood,
SO far as it concerns the issue re-
Gently raised when the western union
company was denied permission to lay
cable from Miami. Fla, connecting
at the Barbardoes with British cable
from Brazil, is to be postponed for
private settlement after the conclusion
of the conference.
German cables to be allocated are
estimated to total 23,500 miles. The
German transatlantic cable from EN-
den to New York is said to have been
cut by the British in 1914 and one
end diverted into Penzance. England,
and the other end into Halifax. This
cable is expected to be the chief con.
cern Of the American commissioners.
