WOMAN'S PARTY
AGAIN URGED
Suffrage Leaders Would
Name Candidate and
Draw Up Platform
DELAWAREANS
ON COMMITTEE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O.-The forma-
tion Of a woman's party as an entity
in the political life OF the United
states is in the cards IL the more rad
ical members Of the National Wo-
mans party militant leaders in the
tight for suffrage. can swing the ma
iority Of the membership into line at
a convention which will mtet soon in
Washington.
The executive committee Of the Ma
tional Woman's party is to meet in
New York this week to decide upon
the date for the convention and TO
sound out sentiment for the continu-
ance Of the organization. Many OF the
leaders are known to be in favor Of
the establishment of a new party.
Mrs. o. II. p. Belmont, long the
financial angel" Of the party, has
openly expressed her dlspleasure with
both OF the dominant parties. Other
members who have found a livelihood
and publicity in their work are not
eager TO abandon their task. Whether
such sentiments rule The majority OF
the membership is doubtful. That
there Is a division is acknowledged
by the officials.
"Oplnion within the ranks OF the
partys membership differs as to the
course 10 be followed" says a stale
ment obtained today from Washing
ton headquarters.
Certain groups advocate the forma-
tion Of a separate woman's political
party with candidates and a platform
Other groups urge working for the
elimination Of determinations against
women by political methods such as
those used by the Womans party in
The suffrage fight. Still other groups
| suggess that the parry. having accom-
plished its purpose Of securing a fed
eral suffrage amendment, is no longer
needed as a separate organization
The decision Of the majority Of the
members Of the convention will deter
tmine the party's future"
Members Of the executive commit
tee Of the National Woman's party
are:
Miss Alice Paul. chairman: Miss
Mabel Vernon. Wilmington. Del. sec
rotary; Mrs. Lawrence Lewis. Phila-
delphia. treasurer; Mrs. Abby Scott

PATENT EGG PRODUCERS FAKES

Serious quotation as TO the valua-
tion OF various so-called egg produc-
ing tablets which are finding large
sale to poultry interests throughout
Michigan is raised by Prof. A. J. Pat
ten, Experiment Station Chemist at
the Michigan Agricultural College.
Analysis OF the contents OF several of
these products has failed so far TO re-
veal elements which can be expected
70 stimulate egg production in any
way.
''Our feed inspectors are finding
these egg production tablets all over
the state" says Prof Patten," and in
dications are that at least three or four
brands are being sold on large scale.
Those which we have examined so far
contain only common elements, such
as salt. iron oxide. calcium carbo-
nate. magnesium sulphate, 20 which
are usually added fenugreek or anise.
There is nothing in the tablets which
