ment Again Up to Supreme Court.

washington, Sept. 27.-The consti-
tutionality of the woman suffrage
amendment was questioned before the
United States supreme court in a pc
tition for a review and reversal of the
decision of the Maryland court of ap-
peals sustaining the amendment
brought today by citizens of Baltimore,
represented by Oscar Lesser.
The Maryland constitution limits the
right of suffrage to adult male citizens
and the Maryland legislature rejected
the amendment in January, 1920,
challenging is validity on the ground
it was in excess of the power of the
amendment conferred in the federal
constitution.
Lesser and others challenged the
right of Cecilia Street Waters and
Mary d. Randolph to register as vot-

It's Lewis VS.. Howat.
Question of supremacy of the "in-

concerned by a vote today of the min

was expected to clearly define the
strength of the rival camps.

of the mines and many important
resolutions as yet untouched.

lives when the United States subma-

believed the death list will be greater,
altho naval officials refuse to make
any statement.
