Use Tommy Atkins
 Clothes for Jews

New York, Jan. 3.-Tommy At kins is demobilized and back in multi, but his discarded khaki, brass buttons and all, has been called back into service.
 To aid in clothing destitute Jews in Poland, whose suffering this winter is more intense than ever before, 5000 English army over coats and uniforms and 15,000 pairs of Tommy's shoes, were rushed to Warsaw from England, being distributed New Years Day.
 Captain Charles Grey, English Commissioner for the Joint Dis trlbution Committee, negotiated the purchase, from contributions totalling 100000 pounds, pledged by English Jewry, who are making liberal additions to the funds raised in this country by the Amer ican Jewish Relief Committee and it's allied bodies.
 Yankee doughboys who fought with the British in Flanders and who know what the heavy, clumsy, black leather English army shoes are, may laugh at the idea of women wearing them, but to the suffering women of Poland, whose feet have been wrapped in rags or who have gone barefoot for five years, the "clodhoppers" were re- ceived as a Godsend.
 In addition, Captain Grey pur- chased 10000 pairs of socks and 30,00O outfits, consisting of an overcoat, shoes and stockings, for immediate shipment to Poland.

point out to them the critical Inn
minence" Of the action Of the North

amendment

menting on the telegram received
from President Wilson late last
night, regarding the suffrage
amendment, Governor Beckett ex-
pressed the hope today that the
Tennessee Legislature would meet
and ratify the amendment and thus
make immediate action by North
Carolina unnecessary.
I'VE have neither the time nof

land such action on the part Of
Tennessee would save this state the
feeling of bitterness that would
surely be engendered by debate on
the subject that would come up in
