HOOVER FOR RATIFICATION
WITH SAFE RESERVATIONS

New York, March 17.-Herbert Hoover
In a statement issued from his office here
today, advocates early ratification of the
peace treaty so long as the final form
gives us freedom OF action and room for
constructive development of peace and
with reservations which should satisfy
the most timid as to entanglements.
The statement was issued, it was ex-
planned, in response to request OF a
Washington newspaper for his views on
the subject,
Mr.. Hoover expressed the belief that
the reservations do not destroy the
possibility of the creation Of potent
organization 10 mitigate the dangers IN
front OF us and the alternatives are con
tinuation of our state of war for another
wear or the unthinkable thing, for us TO
make separate peace after we have gone
so far as to agree on its main lines with
comrades IN arms.
Despite the feeling Of President Viii
son and his associates that the strength
of the league is somewhat undermined
by the reservations, Mr. Hoover expressed
the opinion they also should accept"
them.
Regardless of what any OF us may think
should have been the provisions of either
the league or the treaty, he asserted, I'VE
and the world should not be kept waiting
longer for settlement.

JUDGE GRAY SEES
NO GOOD RESULT IN
WOMAN SUFFRAGE
Believes Harm Would Follow the
Ratifying of Anthony
amendment.
ANNOUNCES HIS REASONS

Judge Gray in an interview today IN
regard to ratification Of the Suffrage
Amendment, spoke as follows:
you ask me what my opinion is as TO
woman suffrage, and what | think should
he the att tude OF the Legislature at the
extraordinary session OF that body,
called for the 22d Of this month?
ITO those who know me, the first
Question does not need an answer, and my
convictions on that subject have only been
strengthened by time and reflection. | can
sec no good that could come either to
women or to the body polite of the State,
nv eonferrIng the voting franchise upon
women. On the contrary, | believe that
much of harm may result to both. II the
proposed amendment is ratified.
But this is not the time to present
arguments upon the general question OF
woman suffrage, because we are now
confronted with the possibility OF a
great wrong being inflicted upon the people
Of the State by hasty and ill-considered
ratification OF the proposed amendment
10 the Constitution of the United states
In the first place, the proposal to
bring about this great change. by an
a-ncndment 10 the Federal Constitution,
thus coercing the viii of many of the
states. violates principles Of self govern
frent that have hitherto been considered
sacred, and challenges the right and
ability OF the peoples of the several States
. wisely regulate matters o. their own
concern.

GRADES FOR POTATOES AND
 ONIONS

Proper distribution of farm prod ucts requires, first of all, that com mon understanding exist as the basis of negotiations between producers and purchasers The Bureau of Markets, United States Department of Agri- culture, is endeavoring to bring this about by the recommendation of grades for fruits and vegetables. No 2 potatoes should be No. potatoes not, as at present No. potatoes in one section of the country and No. 1 somewhere else.
 During the war period the United States Food Administration required licensed dealers to use Government potato grades. The results were so satisfactory that when the regulation was cancelled the use of grades to a large extent was continued voluntar- fly. In fact, since that time higher grade has been demanded to provide for produce of highest quality.
 Therefore the Bureau of Markets now recommends United Grade fancy in addition to grades No. 1 and No 2
 Grade fancy consists of sound po- tatoes of one variety which are ma ture, bright, smooth, well shaped, free from dirt or other foreign matter, frost injury, sunburn, second growth, growth cracks, cuts, scab, blight, soft rot, and damage caused by disease, in sects, or mechanical or other means. The range in size shall be stated in terms of minimum and maximum di- ameter or weight following the grade name, but in no case shall the diame- ter be less than two inches.
 In order to allow for variations in- cident to commercial grading and ham, ding, per cent by weight of any lot may vary from the range in size stat ed, and, in addition, per cent by weight of any such lot may be below the remaining requirements of this grade, but not more than third of such 3 per cent; that is to say, not more than per cent by weight of the entire lot may have the flesh injured by soft rot.
 Complete particulars regarding United States potato grades are con- tained in Department Circular 96, which will be mailed free upon re, quest to the Bureau of Markets.
 The Bureau of Markets also recom- mends grades as a standard for grad ing and marketing Bermuda onions in the United States. These grades are the result of an investigation by the bureau covering period of four years. Full information regarding them is contained in Department Cir cular 97, which will also be sent free upon request to the Bureau of Mar kets.

FOURTH RED CROSS ROLL CALL

The annual Red Cross drive for members will begin Armistice Day, November II and close Thanksgiving Day, November 25, Red Cross workers throughout Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma were today notified by officials at Southwestern divisional headquarters of the Red Cross at St. Louis. The campaign will be known as the Fourth Red Cross Roll Call"
 Red Cross officers at national head quarters of the organization in Wash ington made known that as result of the roll call last fall the American Red Cross now has 10,0OO,000 mem bers, with returns still coming in. This is more than 20 times the pre-war membership of the soclety and, of course, does not take into account the 14,000,000 school children members of the Junior Red Cross.
 h fixing the date of the annual en- rolln1ent of members, explanation was made on the decision of the Red Cross to make each "Aimistice Day. the oc- casion for renewing popular allegiance to the Red Cross through dollar annu- al memberships. Thus the Fourth Roll Call will have for it's primary purpose maintenance of as nearly uni versal membership as possible to car ry on the peace-time responsibilities of the Red Cross.
 These obligations include continua- ton of measures in behalf of Ameri- cas- veterans of the war, particularly the disabled; service for the peace time Army and Navy; development of stouter national resistance to di- sease through health centers, increase of the country's nursing resources and Red Cross cooperation with official health agencies; continued prepared ness for disaster relief; Home Ser vice and community work; and com pletion of relief work among the war exhausted and disease-ridden peoples overseas.
