Two Bills Presented
To Enfranchise Women

ATLANTAfi July 15.-There has
been introduced in the Georgia senate
two bills enabling women to vote in
state primaries and general elections
in the event that the nineteenth
amendment to the federal constitu-
ton is ratified by the twenty-sixtf
state.
These two enabling bills do not
seek to enfranchise women unless
the federal amendment is ratified by
the necessary number of states, but
in that event of ratification, women
in Georgia would be permitted to vote
in the state primaries this fall and
would keep in force the present legal
machiner-' governing voting qualifi-
cations in Georgia.
The measures are patterned after
the Mississippi laws on the subject.

WORK AND SAVE.

The world owes no able-bodIed
Stacker a living. He must 60 out
among his fellows and earn IL. The
character Of that living depends sole
ly upon the mental and physical equip
ment with which he has been endowed,
aided and developed by his own un-
ceasing efforts. The work Stacker in
peace times is as much a menace to
his country as his prototype in times
of war. He is costing his country
millions every year, and he 1t is who
is pushing ever upward the cost OF
living through reduction Of output and
effort. More individual effort and
more production will bring down the
cost of living and thereby remove dis
tress. says Washington Post. Thrift
is the lever through which this war
worn world is TO be stabilized, for
neither the nation nor the individual
can get back TO a rational basis so
long as the desire TO indulge in reck-
less spending controls it, Work and
save" should be the slogan of the ris-
ing generation, for upon the character
of those now entering upon mans es-
tate depends the future Of this nation.
