Way to Check Carbureter Trouble.

Many cars have no provision aside
from a Strainer in the tank for
keeping out dirt from the car
bureter. Owners of such vehicles
will do well to fit trap in the fuel
line. All the big carbureter makers
offer those traps, which are to be
placed in the line near the car
burcter or in the bottom of the tank.
The trap catches all the dirt and
water. and should be cleaned out
regularly once a month.

Q. have stripped the rear axle
driving gear of my car three times,
and I am afraid that there is some
thing radically wrong and that re-
placement of gears is, not the cor
rect thing to do.
A. Your trouble may be caused by
the axle being out of alignment, by
the piniOn not running true, by the
differentiaI carrier loosening. Have
a competent service man go over the
car, because it is useless to change
the gears. Get the fundamental fault
and correct that.

WORLD WOMEN
ADOPTCHARTER
New Declaration Drawn
Up at Geneva
Conference
By HELEN RING ROBINSON,
Colorado State Senator

! (Reporting International Suffrage
Congress for n. E. Al
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND, July
16.-It was seventy years and more
ago that group of American wo-
men met in the little New York
village of Seneca Falls, and pro-
claimed, "A Charter of the Rights
OF Women"
"The right to vote The right
of an education" The right OF a
married woman to own the dress she
stood in-and other goods, too"
Daring as it sounded back in 184S,
practically every demand of that
Seneca Falls Woman's Charter has
been written into the laws of the
! United States. Or will be tomor-
row.
But there are still countries where
women are merely doormats.
Just few days ago another gath
ering of women drew up another
Charter of the Rights of Women"
The members of the Eighth Con
gress of the International Woman
Suffrage Alliance met in Geneva,
Switzerland. The company included
not Americans only, but women from
countries of which those pioneers OF
1913 never read in their biographies
from Latvia and CZecho-Slovakla
and the Ukraine, as well as from
England and China and South Amer
lea and France and Turkey.
This was the charter they adopted
l. That the suffrage be grant
ed to women and their equal
status with men upon legisla-
tive and administrative bodies,
both national and international,
be recognized.
2. That women, equally with
men, should have the protection
of the law against slavery, such
as still exists in some parts of
eastern Europe, Asia and Africa.
3. That a married woman
should have full personal and
civil rights, including the right
to the use and disposal of her
own earnings and property, and
that she should not be under the
tutelage of her husband.
a. That the married mother
should have the same rights over
her children as the father.
{. That a married woman
should have the same rights to
retain or change her nationality
as a man.
6. That all opportunities of
education, general, professional
and technical, should be open to
both sexes.
7. That women should have
the same opportunity as men for
training for and for entering in
dustries, professions, civil SER
vice and all administrative and
judicial positions.
8. That women should receive
the same pay as men for the
same work.
9. That no special regulations
for women's work, different
from the regulations for men,
should be imposed o~~I----v to
the wishes of the working wo-
men themselves, that any laws
concerning women as mothers
should be so framed as
not to handicap them in their
economic position, and that all
