Women's Suffrage in spain.-There
are in Spain, writes an authoritative
correspondent, three organizations
purporting to advance the claims of
women: A Catholic association, un-
der the patronage of His Eminence,
the Cardinal Primate of Toledo, an
other one claiming to be orthodox, but
not under the auspices of ecclesiastl-
cal authority, and lastly, a frankly
independent society. The first-named
is affiliated to the International Won
ems Suffrage Society, the second,

a Catholic country like Spain, fail to
develop into an anti-CathOlic force,
even supposing that it is not secretly
such, like the Ecole Neutre in France.
AS for the third variety, it will now
have to content itself with operating
from Geneva.

Catholic Seamen's Institute.-The
Catholic Seamen's Institute, Sir John
RogersOn's quay, Dublin, is now in
the tenth year of its existence, and
continues to be carried on with the
usual zeal by the Brothers of the So
ciety of st. Vincent de Paul. It's &C.
tivities during 1919 have been consid-
erably greater than those of any other
year since it's foundation, due to the
increased shipping consequent on the
close of the European war. Although
there was considerable diminution
in the amount of subscriptions re-
ceived, no effort was spared in cater
ing for the moral and social welfare
of the sailors. The Institute serves
the most useful purpose of forming
connection between Catholic seamen
and their Church, and within it's hos
pitable door the voyager visiting Irish
shores is immune from the infinite
variety of dangers and temptations to
which he would otherwise be exposed
The Brothers visit the ships regularly
every Sunday morning and distribute
beads, scapulars, ETC., and also supply
the sailors with decent literature
Every evening the Rosary is recited by
the seamen present The temporal
wants of the seamen are also we'll at
tended to. Although the Institute is
mainly for Catholics, seamen of other
denominations are not excluded.

ing OF the income tax. The subsidy
of tax exemption of government and
quasi-government enterprises puts
private enterprise at a disadvantage
in competition and tends to destroy
individual initiative, forces reliance
on government aid and leads inevi-

To sum up, the direct and indi-

to the admirable outline Of the ef-

his argument at the close of his ad-

economic in that it transfers the tax

ARGENTINA FAVORABLE
FOR PULP MANUFACTURE

There IL q great opportunity now
for American interests to develop
the vast wood pulp lands of Argen-
tina, and begin now to increase i'm
ports of what appears will soon be-
come a scarce commodity in this
country, according to a report to the
Department Of Commerce from Trade
Commissioner George S. Brady, sta
toned at Buenos Aires.
Although there are many wood
pulp lands undeveloped in all parts
of Argentina, Mr.. Brady says, by
far the best opportunities lay in the
forestal riches of Misiones Territory.
Not only are there many woods In
that area we'll suited for paper pulp
manufacture, but the conditions sur
rounding it and the ready means of
water transportation make II ideal
for the local manufacture of pulp.
At the present time there Is a
Swedish Mission in the country
studying the paper pulp situation.
and there is talk of other European
capital becoming interested. 1t re-
mains. the trade commissioner says,
for the American pulp manufac-
turers to obtain the first place in
the field.

The Department of Commerce has
asked newspapers to give publicity
to a combine of British firms that

resentative warns Americans not to
ship to that port in British bot
toms or to consign anything to the
firms in question. They are charg-
ing three times the rates for un-
loading freight that is charged by
Americans in the harbor. Mr.. J. NJ.

can Foreign Trade Corporation, the
concern that represents America
there. said today that the combine
claimed that the high charge in
cIuded demurrage., He states that 1t
is not necessary to have demurrage,
but that the combine causes de-
murrage to develop by delaying the
unloading OF ships and especially
of American vessels. This is the
first time the American government
has taken an active part in the fight
of American firms for business
abroad. 1t is not charged that the
British government is back of the
Constantinople combine, but the
strongest business interests in Eng
