More Women Arc Made Today; Only
 Five Days Left
New Voters Come at the Rate of 15O An Hour But They Must Come Twice As Fast As That in Order That All on the List May Be Made By Next Tues day Night.

New voters. men and women, crowded the corridors of the City Hall in large numbers today and kept the members and clerks of the Board of noon.
 New voters were made at the rate of two and a half every minute or 15O an hour and if the crowd con- at 10 o'clock tonight it is expected that the toll for the day will be 15O0
 The registration officials were loud in their praise of the work of The Times in calling the attention of the women to the necessity of taking ad- vantage of these days and not waiting until the last few days to be made
 It. is estimated that even at the rate that the women are now being made that several thousand will be unable to have their names placed on the lists as it is practically impossi- ble to make all who are on the "To Be Made" lists in the limited time set by the legislature.
 The making of new voters stops at 10 o'clock next Tuesday night and so there are only Thursday Friday Saturday, Monday and Tuesday i'll which the electors can be admins tered.
 It is absolutely necessary for wona- en, married to naturalized citizens, no matter whether the women were born in this country or not to bring ilouS lIelI IuSDdnuS papers and a number of woF n who applied were sent back yesterday who had failed to do this.
 If woman was born in a foreign country and married a man born in this country it is necessary for the husband to come along to identify her.
 A woman who was born in this country and who has married man who was born in foreign country and who has not been nat uralized she cannot be made a voter here as by marriage she assumes the nationality of her husband.
 Any one who voted in this city formerly and who has moved to a different district from which he vot- ed can have his name transferred to the District in which he now lives by applying to the Central Registrars office, No. City Hall up to 5 o'clock, standard time of 6 o'clock. daylight saving time, Friday, Octo- Der Is, and those who formerly vot- ed here but whose names have been dropped from the lists can have their names restored up to next Tuesday night.
 Among the women who were made voters today were Mrs. Mary Mona han, wife of Dr. David H. Monahan, Mrs. Emma Marco, Mrs. Mary Cas- serly, Mrs. Marie McElroy and Mrs. James Holt Jr.
 On Saturday there were SS5 made voters, Monday 1871 and Tuesday 972. This leaves about 15,000 to be made in the next few days.

" dSHIHS oCt D ood1 pTlCeS are being maintained at the present high levels by coal authorities and state and national commissions which indicate a shortage and not because of the laws of supply and demand, George H. Gushing, director of the Am erican Wholesale Coal Dealers association, today declared.
 Cushing said efforts of public off cia1s to make it appear that there is a coal shortage by the issuance of orders aimed to increase production is causing a false alarm that the fig ureS do not bear out"
 Priority orders issued by the Inter state Commerce Commission have not increased the output of coal, Gushing declares. He pointed to his statement of several months ago that a produc- tion of $535, 5,000.00O tons will be suf- flcient until the end of the year. He said figures up to Oct. 2 show that 545. 100000 tons would be mined.
 t'I hold there is no shortage" Cush- ing added.
 How will the extension of the coal car priority orders further west to include all of the middle west affect the situation" Cushing was asked.
 "It further complicates it and will not increase production a ton." he replied. Priority orders have meant nothing more than bad distribution.
 Lumber, shoes. grain and other markets have declined. Coal prices have not. This is caused by the false shortage the people have been made to believe exists.'

 Small hope for any immediate bet terment of conditions was held out today. One dealer announced that his suply was coming along slowly, and another stated that he did not expect to receive any coal at all for a few weeks. No indication was given as to whether there would be any change in price in the near fu- ture.

STARVING LITTLE ONES OF EUROPE
LOOK TO AMERICA FOR AID; PINAL
COUNTY ASKED TO RESPOND TO CALL
With State And County Organizations Perfected, Cam
pagn To Save Lives Of Perishing Children Is
Opened W. s. Boyd Is Local Chairman Of Hoover's
Relief Organization

The call has come to Christian
America to help save the starving
children of eastern and central
Europe.
Have you subscribed yet?
Is your name on the subscription
list?
Actual warfare, internal strife,
crop failure, valueless money, disease,
pestilence, typhus-all have combined
to produce a condition of misery in
Poland, Austria, southwest Russia and
the Balkan states that is unparalleled
in history.
Three and half millions of chill
dren must look to America to provide
for them the one simple meal per day
just enough to keep the spark Of life
aflame in their under-nourished little
bodies.
The people of these countries are
doing all that is humanity possible to
save them, and yet in spite Of all they
can do, and in spite of Americas aid,
the situation is such that many thou
sands of them will die this winter, in
fact hundreds Of thousands. They
are passing on by the score with every
tick of the watch.
America must act quickly.
Give! Give to the utmost
Mr. Norman Carmichael has been
appointed state chairman by Herbert
Hoover, who is general chairman OF
the eight associated organizations who
are trying to save these children. Mr.
Carmichael has asked Judge Baughn
to act as county chairman, and he in
turn is calling for volunteers to assist
in raising Pinal cbuntys share before

The eight bodies associated :. this
drive are the American Rehel Ad-
ministration, the Quaker. Relief Com
mittee, the Red Cross, the Federated
Churches of Christ, the Knights of
Columbus, the Y. M. G. A. and Y. W.
c. A. and the Jewish Relief Com
mittee.
The work of the Europe Relief
Council of the eight combined Or
ganizations, headed by Mr.. Hoover,
should not he confused with the Near
East Relief. The Near East Relief is
confining its activities to attempting
to save 10000 orphans in Armenia
and adjacent countries in Asia. The
Europe Relief Council is working
wholly in eastern and central Europe.
No greater call to humane America
has ever come than this. We must
all give something Let no Ray name
be missing from the list of donors.
Mr.. w. S. Boyd, as local chairman,
has charge of the drive in Ray Our
quota is about $1,000. We can raise
it easily, if we will The good name
'of Christian civilization is at stake.
Starving little tots, knowing nothing
of the "why" of it all-only knowing
they have no food to check t. con-
stant gnawing of their little stomachs,
look to America to save them. The
winter is cold and long, while the
under-fed condition of their little
bodies gives disease chance to make
great inroads into their waning num-
bers.
Knowing no other spirit than sac
rifice, let us spend portion Of our
Christmas money in this manner.
Nothing can give us more satisfaction,
lnor do more good.
