2O.O0O.O 900 NEW VOTERS

Ire state of Tennessee took acton Wednesday which will add 10000 900 hew voters to the electorate for the No vember election. This was through rat f: ing the nineteenth amendment 10 Ike constitution of the United Sta-es which grants to women the right to vote. 2 he favorable vote of the Tenn >s5Ae house and senate brought to their stle tEe distinction of being the thirty sixth state to ratify the suffrage amendment and complete the number needed to place it among the law of the land.
 The fight has been a long one. but the logic and the justice of the women s appeal for the right to vote has over come the strongest kind of opposition. The platforms of both political parties this year declared for suffrage and for some time it has been realized that it's coming was inevitable though it might be delayed. The ratification comes in time for the women to vote in the na- tional election in November and makes possible an epochal step forward in their political rights.

JAPAN AND THE MOVIES

Censorship for the movies in Japan has been set up along lines different from what reformers of this popular entertainment feature have attempted here. The Japanese plan is for the separation of adults and children at movie shows and different set of re- strictions upon the pictures to De shown to adults and the pictures for those un- der sixteen.
 The new regulation followed the crime of two boys who carried off and murdered two school girls and the 7o- lice were convinced that the boys were inspired to the crime by a moving pie ture they had seen.
 Some uplifters in thi scountry have based their demand for closer censor ship of the movies upon the statement that some pictures now shown are de moralizing to childish imaginat:ons and result in harm. Others have asked for special pictures for children, o1 the ground that pictures should be, made a source of inspiration to fine ldeals among them rather than stimulus to evil The Japanese seem to have serv- ed both ends by 8 single stroke. If a manager wants the pennies of the ch,i- dren he must provide films suitable to their separate entertainment. As for the adults they can no doubt have the movies just as bad as they like them, the danger of contantinating children being removed by keeping all children out of the adult shows. As a progronl for the reformers of the movies in this country this example offers something more definite and practicable than they have yet devised for themselves.

WHAT ABOUT GASOLINE?

What the users of gasoline are to dc h the light of inability of production to keep up with demand is a question that is coming unpleasantly clo3s to tha
 ADeric1T peal .e The output of moor gar factories is steadily gaining on the output of the reinerieS. Since August 1919, according to the United States ge- ological survey and hureau of mines, there was an excess uf consumption over production of crude petroleum amounting to 26,71i,240 barrels The yearly production has been at lte rate of z02,s2e,o25 barrels but consumption has been at the rats of 43e,343,265 barrLls
 The automobile is largely. though not entirely to blame for this coalition. From 1911 to January l. 1920. the num- Der of automobiles incrzasei 97J per cslt, while the oil outr1- increase only T per cent In 1911 there were 100000 automobiles in the United States, but the number has now gyown to an estimate of 12.0oo,ooo for 1920. In the same time the use of crude oil for steamships, locomotives and other fuel consuming industries has largely ncreaed, so that the automooile is rat sDihely responsible. In 1911 ther, was ar available supply of 314 barrels of crude oil per car, in 1919 it had dropped to 50, and if the same ratios prevail ii will be but 40 for 1920, and B for 1921.

HARDING AND NATIONALITY

Certain democratic writers have been industriously circulating the impress sion that Senator Harding's attitude up on the League of Nations meant that the United States was to abandon the other countries of the world to their fate. while we selishly forged ahead and enjoyed our prosperity. For the sake of what they think might be an ap- peal to the foreign-born citizens these democratic writers have preferred to ignore the essence of the utterapces ot the republican candidate for president. In his speech of acceptance and in all his public and private expressions on this point Senator Harding has plain ly said, we will not hold aloof." There is in this nothing from which to draw arguments that he would abandon oth- sr nations to their fate. On the con- trary, the senator has promised every assistance possible, reserving only for first place the interests of America, which he rightly holds to be above all others in the estimation of Americans. His own words explain his sympathy with the problem of the foreign-born citizens and his deep desire to be help 10 mem anu lIiS III ScilOi e'A' Here is what he said:
 There has come to me, the expressed anxieties of American foreign-born, who are asking our country's future attitude oa territorial awards in the adjustment Of .eace. They are Americans all, hat they have proper and natural interest in he fortune of kinsfolk and F;3tlve iaaes. One cannot blame them If our land is to settle the envies, rivalries, jealousies and hatreds of all cjyiiizat ion, these adopted sons of the republic want the ettlement favorable to the land from which they came The misfortune ij not alone that it rends the concord o nations; the greater pity is that it renck the concord of our citizenship at home Governor Coolidge spoke the oh CT day of the rescue of America from inc reactions of war. We also need 10 to be rescued from the visionary and fruitless pursuit of peace through super government. I do not want Americans of foreign birth making their party judgments on what We mean to do for some nations of the old world. We want them to be republicans because of what we mean to do for the United States of American. Our call is for uni son, not rival sympathies; our need is concord; not the antiquities of long in heritance. It wuld be sorry day for this republic if we allowed our activi- ties in seeking for peace in the old world to blind us to the essentials of peace at home"
 Senator Harding is an intense na- tionailst; he thinks in terms of his own land instead of being led astray by the International glannor and voices in the air that iured President Wilson to Paris and Versailles. Putting America first, Senator Harding is willing to help any other nation as far as may be done without involving American citizens in disputes where ties of blood and race might divide them, and he is opposed to joining policy of 'internationalism" in whose hay outlines many real dangers lOoF77 m
Norwich bulletin., 1920-08-19

It is ust about a year ago now that had a delightful little trip to Paris from Souilly, where Miss Florence and were stationed with the headquarters company of the 000th engineers. I was working along in the monotonous rou- tine of the canteen without a thought of taking leave, when Naomi told me one morning that she had permission to go to Paris
 'It won't be exactly pleasure trip" she smiled rather ruefully. Mai. Red woods looked at that tooth which has been troubling me, and says that the army dentists here aren't equipped to do the work I need, so I must go to Paris for a few days"
 Well" I said, you can surely nave some fun out of it.'f
 The fact is, Lucile I hate to go. You know I'm helping the boys who are go- ing to give play next month. I have so much to do.''
 The evening after this conversation Naomi came into our billet, where I was policing myself for dinner at the officers mess, and announced that she had given up the journey to Paris fo- the present
 Some of the boys in the play have just got their orders to report at school in Bordeaux the first of the month" cApidiH6u, anu we are SO1flS lO TuSn the entertainment so that we can have it next week. I can't desert them now. As it is I'll have to sit up nights to get Tom Shells costume de ballet done, to say nothing of the chorus girls finery,"
 But you have your movement order and everything" I said.
 T don't care. Nothing would induce me to go,' Naomi answered, powdering her nose with more determination than care.
 ''If go to Paris tomorrow, can do any shopping or errands you wish at tended to, Naomi I remarked few hours later, when we were going to ned.
 'fYou go to Paris Why I didn't know you even thought of it."
 Well, you see it occurred to me to- night that it was a pity to let per fectly good movement order re wasted, so l have about decided to take your movement order, as you aren't going to use it. and can run into Paris tomorrow for a few days much needed chanaga. l am rellly getting bit stale, Naomi. D
 But how can you use my movement order?" she asked.
 Its merely a matter of red tape and nobody will question me, I'm sure. What does it signify whether you use it or I? We are both American girls doing the same work here under the same cerc11no. stances.
 It seems to me- when that move ment order was issued to me because I had a bona fide reasons for going to

FROM LUCILLE'S DIARY

Paris that I am the only one entitled to use it"
 "Very well, Naomi" I said quietly, If you intend to allow a silly techincal- ity to interfere with my having really necessary holiday, I have to bow to your will, and - but I could not finish. I was so dreadfully disappoint- ed that I burst into tears.
 I cried a good deal through the night, and I suppose I was overwrought and homesick, for I got into a nervous state and sobbed loudly. At three o'clock in the morning, when I was looking at my radio watch, Naomi said most graci- ,ously that she wouldn't give her move ment order to me, but if I chose to take it she would be glad to have me go. I went to sleep at last.
 Capt Aubrey had told me at mess that he was going on three days leave to Paris and that I could drive over to Bar le Due withshim to get the train. It was extremely pleasant to have com pany all the way to Paris, and the cap tain was most thoughtful about taking me to see the great war panorama and all the good shows, as he called them. Indeed, he kept me so busy that I did not have time to do the shopping that Naomi had requested. I meant to do it after he. had left town, but the morn ing he was returning to Souilly he came to my hotel early to tell me that he was driving back in a reconnaissance car with some officers who were going to the Verdun front. He said there was a seat for me in it.
 It was a marvellous drive
 We arrived at my billet at 11:45 that night and Naomi was really startled when I stalked in and turned On the light. and told her what a glorious time I had had.
 The day after the boys play Naomis bad tooth hurt her excruciatingly. She telephoned to the welfare directress at Toul for movement order to Paris.
 ''Why do you wish another order so soon?" was the immediate question, and Naomi explained that she hadn't been to Paris yet.
 But your movement order was turn ed,' protested the directress. Tt was used.''
 Then Naomi informed her that I had l used it, and she told me afterward that the directress said we should really be disciplined.
 Naomi felt so bad about it that I gen. erously offered to write in and take all the blame, which I did I received a lovely reply, saying that as the order was used for an emergency the matter umphantly showed this letter to Naomi would be overlooked. When tri- she smiled cryptically. Really, I never could understand Naomi.
