WOMEN RULE.
Let Men Do All the Hard Work and They
Govern.

San Francesca, CAL, JAM 6.-Dowp
in the little island OF Tiburon, in the
Gulf Of California, when a dark-skinned
youth of the Seri Tribe is csptivated by
the charm Of . dusky maiden, and she
rcciprocates, she docs not Gmidly suggest
that be ask father.
Father has nothing to do about thu
matter. Mother is the all-iInportant MEM
Der of the family, and it IL to mother that
the candidate for daughters hand pre-
sents bis claims.
Tiburon, otherwise known ~ Shark
Island, is real Amazon kingdom, or
perhaps queendom. The women arc the
heads of the family and rule the men
with hand of iron, grsciously permit
ting them to attend to the work OF gath
ering food, wood and water, while their
wives, mothers and daughters take care
of the serious business of governing the
country.
Although all the men on 1fburon arc
under the rule of their women folk, the
newly married husband is the most ABB
ject of slaves. He must be the newer
of wood and drawer of water for his
dusky Rachel.

MANN BACKS BERGER
FOR SEAT IN HOUSE
Borah and Johnson Oppose Bill
to Squelch Reds in This
Country

Washington, Jan. 6.-Repuhfican lead
srship yesterday split wide open on anti-'
rsdicalism. In the Ho,nc, ~ well as the
Senate prominent Republican members OF
Congress are st lopgerhe ads On the subiect.
Representative James II. Mann, Of
Illinois, who WAS Republicans floor leader
in the last Congress, threw hombshell
into the plans of his party colleagues by
announcing that ne intends 10 champion
the right OF Victor l.. Berger Of Milwaukee
TO seat in the House, despite Berger's
conviction Of dlsIoyalty To the United
States and sentence to Federal PRISON.
When plans were made In the SENATE
yesterday to take UP the sedition bull,
making it unlawful tn advocate or sdvise
the overthrow OF tho government OF the
United States by force or Violence "
became apparent that this Legislation Will
be fought vigorously by such Republicans
as Senators William r. Bornh, of Idaho,
and Hiram ". Johnson, OF California.
Regardless of this division within the
ranks, Representative Dnllingcr OF Mas
sachusetts. who handled the cass ax,inst
Berger when he was denied seat lew
weeks ago. intends to proceed with his
pl.ns a@ain to bar the Sociafist-and
To do go as SION as Berger appears in
Washington with his credentials. In the
Senate. Senator Sterling intends to bring
the sedition bill before that body for con-
sideration tomorrow.
The sed;tion bill now pending IN the
Senate is inteudSd 10 punish American
radicals. II would prohibit the circula-
tion of evolutionary literature or the use
az the mails for carrying on propaganda in
favor of destroying the Government Of
sha TTnitcd States hv force
The onposition OF Senators Rorah and
Johnson and other Republican senators
Is based on tie rround that the Sterling
hill il un-American in that it infringcs on
the right ol free s,secch and free press.
The sitlrati h in the House with refer
ence 10 the Eerrer controversy promises
/, be moro dramatic than that in the
r,enato ov,,r antiradical legislation. Rep
rcssntativc DaIlinger sat all day with
res ,lution in his pocket which he intended
~ and to the Speakers CHAIR the moment
Rerper aD,.srrd with has credentials frum
The Governor of Wisconsin.
Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1920-01-06

The Republican steering committee, at
ita meeting before the House convened,
decided that resolution, declaring
Berger incompetent to hold the seat,
should be introduced; that the previous
question should he moved forthwith and
a roll call demanded This would cut
off debate and settle the right OF Berger
to u seat without any loN Of time
The present Congress authorized an
investigation Of ths election u Berger carly
in the extraordinary session convened last
April. Exhaustive hearings wcr. held i.
and the committee, which is headed by
Representative Dallinger, recommended
that he bo denied the seat to which he had
been elected by his Milwaukee constit-
uency after he had been indicted for i'm
terfering with the draft act.
Many Republicans expressed amase-
ment over tho attitude OF MIR. Mann.
Representative james G. Cooper, Of Ohio,
one of the members of that party who
has been advocating drastic treatment of
radicals. said:
"The Republicans win not allow Mann
in his defense of Berger would rather
resign nv scat in Congress than 60 sit
with a man like Berger"

an English writer that 1T is not mile

Geographically, Chicago is still
1000 miles from New York, but, be-
cause Of the increases made in freight
rates during the past six years, the city
on Lake Michigan is now, commercial

every community in the country has
been pushed back until it is twice as
far away from the markets in which
it either buys it's supplies or sells it's
products as it was in 1914.
''The whole increase was not made
at Once-the country never would have
stood for it if it had been. First it was
five per cent in 1914 then fifteen per
cent in 1917; then twenty-five per cent,
by Mr.. McAdOO's order in 191S;- and
now an advance varying from twenty
five per cent for the Southern and
Mountain-Pacific groups to 10 per cent

that for every dollar paid to the rail

When a fellow tells you the personal

lost if Amendment No. 1 carries tell
him this: Have you ever noticed that
a very great proportions Of the men
who purchase automobiles purchase
them after May list? Being purchased
after May list they are not assessable
for the current year. By the next year
they are old cars. They are presumed
to have lost a great deal Of their value.
The assessor gets them at anywhere
from half to one-third less than the
original cost. Then forty per. cent of
that amount is taken for the ssessed
value. In practice it works. out that
only about onesfourth of. what autOmO-
biles should pay int taxation is paid.
Why not pass the Amendment No.
