THE LADY FROM OHIO HAS THE FLOOR

At the annual convention of the Ohio News papO Wompn's Association recently held at Cincinnati many subjects of technical interest were discussed, digcstcd and stored for appI- cation in the solution of the many problems which accost the newspaper woman in her line of endeavor
 One subject was considered, however, not so much as by a technical association met to consider technical matters, but by convcn- tion of intelligent and intellectual women, rep rpscntng high class of American citizen ship. A resolution was adopted nstructlng the secretary to communicate with the heads of the largest labor organizations suggesting that when strike vote is put mp to refer cndum of the members of such unions, the wives of the members be allowed to cast a vote for or against the strike.
 Of course such d suggestion will not be favorably acted upon-at least not for long time But the idea has more of merit than appears at first consideration. Supposing that the members of the labor groups are making their efforts for increased remuneration, the contingencies of the strike react upon the wife 'o 9e "r"at or "rcater an extent than upon the husband or father or son who is member of the labor body and entitled to a vote
 It is possible that, should the wives or other adult female dependents of labor members b" ,,,.,,'-tad to cypress their voices for or against strike propositions, in view of tn" suffering and hardShips and danger attendant upon strike conditions, there would D" fewer of strikes and less of suffering. But on the other hand, there might be more. You never can tell without giving if a tIy-out

THE WEST INDIES OR OUR MONEY

Through the agency of the Commercial Club of Chicago we are sometimes enabled to get a closeup of the British viewpoint. Reginald McKenna, former chancellor of the British exchequer, had the opportunity to present to this section of the country the British plan for the cancellation of war debts as a means of restoring productivity and solvency.
 The occasion was not unsympathetic and the argument was persuasive, but the British idea does not convince an American who takes a comparative view of British and American positions in and after the war
 MT. McKenna says that the debts, owed Great Britain and the United States are vir-
