" i'll Not Give To
 CO.,.
Republican w Om e n Pledge Themselves Not to Aid Republican Party in Any Way.

Republican women in Connecticut evidently are not entirely pleased elther:- by the attitude of the State party toward the entrance of women into politics or by the action of the National party in it's supposed effort to hasten ratification of the suffrage amendment.
 Mrs. Willis Austin of Norwich, a Repuibhean of; f;long standing, is chair man of committee of Republican women who are circulating among the Republican women of the state a pledge not to contribute or help to raise money for the fall campaign un- til the 36th state has ratified
 Women who have already signed are Mrs. William H. Derning, Mrs. T. B. Chapman, Hartford; Mrs William C.. Cheney, South Manchester; Miss Edna Leighton Tyler, New London; Mrs. J. G. Gregory, South Norwalk; Mrs. Rosemary Anderson, New London; Mrs. Ernest Thompson Seton, Green Wlch; Mrs. W. H. Alice, Ridgefi cid Mrs. Samuel Shaw, Bridgeport Sev- eral prominent women of Republican afHliation are said to have refused to sign because they did not want to be considered Repub blicans in a state where the Republican party blocked the progress of the Suffrage Amend meth as Connecticut Republicans are doing.
 The pledge which the women are circulating is headed Statement of Republican suffrag1sts.'' The state ment follows:
 '"The undersigned, women of Re- publican tradition and sympathies, wish to protest against the painful position in which we are being placed by our own party.
 ."The Republican party has repeat edly promised to do it's utmost to se- cure ratification of the Federal Suf- 9rage Am endment in time for women to vote in the Nov vember election AL though 29 of the 35 states which have ratified the am endment are Republi- can, we have good reason to believe that the party has purposely held back from giving us the 18th state which would complete ratification. The far cfcal plank in the. national platform if proof enough of this intention. Tn our own state, the Republican leaders, returned to power by the state convention, are actively and bit. | terly opposing ratifica tion, and yet, ir | the face of this situation, the party i:
 actually asking those Conn ecticut wo
 men from whom they are withholding
 the vote to help in the campaign. 'In view of this and because we be lieve that the enfranehisement of hal
 the population is a fundamental issue
 we declare that we will not help thu
 Republican party in Connecticut b. contributing money, raising money, O
 speaking in the campaign until tn
 36th state has, ratified and our posi-
 ton as voters is made secure

CITY TO TAKE NO ACTION; TR0lLEYS TO
 STOP ON THURSDAY
Claimed That Trustees Have Acted Without Authority = Jitney Men to Form Big Cor pOration to Control Business Here.

The evidences are increasing that there will be no trolley cars running in Bridgeport OF and after next Thursday To- day there seemed little likeli- hood of the city taking action to curb the jitneys because the legislature, at the last ses- sion having passed a law con- trolling. the jitneys practically gave over the control of tho jitney service to the stata though the cities, of course, have the right to regulate lroutes.
 From the present temper of the city officials, however, it is not likely that steps will be taken to interfere and in the meantime the towns and ship pers on the lines running west from New Haven have been notified by the company that service will cease on July IS. There has been some question of the legality of the action of the trus- tees in making such a demand on the ground that since they are under 1 the direction of the United States. | court by which they were appointed they have not received from the court any order or authority authorizing 1 them to suspend service either in | whole or in part. The trustees l claim, however, that the demand is 1 in line of protecting the property of l the company.
 The jitney buses of Bridgeport and
 probably the rest of the state are to 1 be acquired by a corporation with a | large capital which will take over all
 jitneys now running here and also furnish a number of new ones to
 handle traffic, is the statement made | today by persons in touch with tho | jitney-troIley situation.
 l John T. King is promoting the new l corporation, according to this in- formation, and interests connected
 with the Fifth Avenue buses in New | York city will hold large blocks of
 stock and will furnish managers and
 buses for the new company.
 John T. King arrived in Bridgeport today and will take an active part in the developments of the new en- terprfse as well as renewing his in terest in local politics.
 | The committee of the Park City Bus Association who are in New York to- day making arrangements for bring ing 50 new Packard buses here, have
 said that there would be no question
 as to their ability to finance the prop
 ositton although they would not indi-
 cate the source of the financial as isistance they expected to receive.
 Former Corporation Counsel Charles L. Kleiner of New Haven and State Senator M. J. Quinn, also of New Ha- iven, have been retained by the Bus
 Association and will attend the hear
 ings of the Common Council and the
 Chamber of Commerce to be held
 here Monday night, and will explain
 the position of the jitney men in the
 transportation crisis caused by the
 day.

MOOrcAt : Head Of
 Fight
Reported From Gov. Cox's Headquarters That Candidates Con- ventiOn Manager Will Be At Head of Ma tiOnal Committee.

Dispatches from Ohio are to the effect that Candidate Cox has already selected D. H. Moore of Youngstown, ohio, as the next chairman of the Democratic National committee to succeed Homer Cummings of. Stam- ford. Moore was Cox's manager at the San Francisco convention.
 It has always. been the policy for the candidate to select as the cam paign manager his own favorfte and make that man the chairman of the Democratic National committee. But the members of the national commit tee elect the chairman that of course the men chosen probably would not stand in the way of the candidate s choice.
 There isn't any doubt that Chair man Cummings will remain if he de- sires, to stay, but it is also probable that he will not allow his own wishes to stand in the way of the wishes of the candidate for the presidency. @ MEETING JULY 20.
 Dayton. Ohio, July 9--A meeting of the entire Democratic National Committee will be held here July 20 to discuss campaign plans with Gov. Cox, according to a telegram received by the governor today from Homer s. Cummings, chairman of the com mittee.
 Plans for notifying the governor of his nomination probably will be ar ranged at the conference.
 MT. Cummings telegram follows: z After consultation with Moore (E. Fl. Moore, National Committeeman for Ohio and manager of the gover- nor's pre-convention campaign), and others, I have called a meeting of the Democratic National Committee to assemble at the Hotel Miami, Dayton, at eleven o'clock in the forenoon of Tuesday, July 20. This will enable us to proceed in a body to Trails End if this accords with your wishes. A few of the committee will probably arrive in town the day before. I ex- pect to follow that course as there are various matters I would like to have an opportunity to take up with you personally. Please let me know whether this is in accordance with your wishes or whether you have any notifications. Wire me care of Pal ace Hotel, San Francisco"
 Governor Cox indicated that the arrangements were perfectly satisfac- tory to him and that he would so advice Chairman Cummings.
