NOT ALL STATES READY
To Admit Women to Vote at Novem-
Der Election.

Washington, d. C., Aug. 2l.--Al
though ratification of the suffrage
amendment is held to cancel all con
flicting state laws and constitutional
provisions, a statement given out last
night by the national woman's party
said further legislation or executive
action might be needed in several states
before adequate election machinery
was set up TO permit all women to
vote in November.
Alice Paul. chairman OF the party
wired to-day to attorneys general in
doubtful states asking if the road to
the polls would be open to women as
soon as the ratification of the amend
ment had been proclaimed. Only nine
doubtful states, Alabama, Connecticut,
Delaware, Florida, Louisiana, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Maryland and Yer
mont. remained TO be heard from on
the point as party officials have been
informed that adequate steps would
be taken in all others, the statement
said.
In 80 of the states, it added, full
participation of women is assured by
the fact that they already had more
or less complete voting powers under
state laws.

ACTION GREW OUT

After the Smash of Autos,

Houlton, Me-, Aug. 2l.--A case that
is expected to go far towards defining
in some measure how far federal Off
GERS may go in enforcing the Volstead
act was started here last night when
special federal prohibition enforcement
officers, +. w. Horgan and H. u. Har-
vey of Boston, were confined IN the
county Jail for several hours before
they were released under S2500 bonds,
furnished by Customs Collector i. j.
Feeley, to appear before the September
term of the supreme judicial court at
Caribou, where they viii be called upon
to answer to a suit for damages in
stituted by Albanie J. Violette, a hotel
proprietor OF Van Buren, charging tres
pass, negligence, recklessness and vio-
lation of the laws of the road.
The action which grew out of col
lision between an automobile driven by
Violette and one in which the federal
officers were riding on Wednesday last
at Caribou and in which both cars we're
destroyed, following, which the federal
officers searched Violette and MS com
panions for intoxicating liquor, las
aroused much interest throughout the

Because the Poles Are Too
Wearied By Their Siren
uOus Defense and Fierce
Counter Attacks to
Prosecute the Pursuit
With Much Rapidity.
Warsaw, Aug. 81 (By the Associated
Press. The Poles had captured $4,000
soviet prisoners up to Thursday, it
was announced here to-day.

Paris, Aug. Elaboration of POLAND
is assured by the great victory wor
during the last week over the Russian
forces, according to the opinion gen
orally entertained in French military
circles, but there is doubt that it will
yield more important results. The boil
shevik army probably will escape total
destruction, although its retreat is en-
failing very heavy losses.
In following up this success, it win
~be logical for the Poles, after crossing
the Bug river, to march northward to-
ward Bialystok and Grodno, thus max
ing the retreat of the soviet army i'm
possible. Such an operation, to sue
ceed, would have to be executed with
great rapidity and with clock like reg
ularity, it is declared, and the Polish
organization, after its long retreat and
the hard fighting in the past, can hard
ly be in position to make such an
effort.
In addition the counter offensive
north of Warsaw seems to be going
slowly, as the bolsheviki are still re-
ported TO be at Wlocawek, 80 miles
west of Warsaw. This situation must
be cleared up, and it seems probable
that it will absorb certain part of the
Polish forces.

War Correspondent Sibley
Will Tell His Interest
ing Story of the 26th

Bulletin No. five of the Vermont de-
partment of the American Legion, Just
issued from department headquarters,
announces a program for the Barre
convention, August 30 and 81, which
assures very interesting meeting for
the Vermont legionaries, General Ed
wards, now commanding the northeast
ern department and the famous 26th
division leader, is expected for the pub
lie meeting in the opera house Monday
evening Frank P. Sibley, famous war
correspondent of the Boston Globe, will
tell his famous story of the Yankee d.
vision at this meeting.
The convention will continue through
Tuesday, when delegates will be elect
ed to the national convention and i'm
portant amendments to the department
constitution will be considered. The
Barre board of trade is cooperating
with the Barre post of the Legion in
providing lunch at Williamstown
gulf and automobile trip to the quar-
ries and the new Barre aviation feldy
where Major Drenan, air service officer
of the northeastern department, is ex-
pected to arrive from Boston. All in
all the second convention of the Legion
is likely to duplicate in pep and en-
thusiasm the celebrated first conven-
tion held in Burlington year ago.
II is especially fortunate that the
Legion is to hear Frank P. Sibley of
the Boston Globe, known to every man
of the 26th division and to thousands
all over New England as the war corre-
spondent for his paper with the Yankee
division. Since his return from France
he has been speaking constantly and
has come to be recognized as one of
the most vivid speakers on the subject
of the boys who went from New Eng
land. No other correspondent knows the
daily life and the heroic actions of the
New England boys so intimately as Mr..
Sibley. His long training as an observer
and his facility of expression have
made him speaker of more than usual
interest.
MIR. Sibley has come to crystalline
from the experiences of American citi
zens in the war and his own observa
tions thereon belief that the salts
faction always felt by the man who
has served ought to be capitalized by
our country. He has formulated this
in lecture of intense patriotic fervor
aud has illustrated every point of his
with incidents so pungent
and with facts so significant that he
has met with universally favorable re-
sponse through year and half
speaking on the average three times
week.
Mr.. Sibley's own personality is best
known as that of a rather humorous,
dry Yankee and his talk, though al
ways earnest, is illumed with many
good stories and flashes of typical New
England humof.
