WOMEN ARE RAPIDLY
 FILLING PUBLIC OFFICES

Now that practically the last bar rier has been removed between wo- man and her political rights, it is portable that the next few years will see many of them occupying posi- tions of political preferment. Already there have been number appointed to clerical positions in the various counties and in a few instances to county offices. There are several candidates announced among the women for various offices, principally county treasurer and county clerks. It is also rumored among the ladies that there will be large number of candidates in 1922 for state senator and representative. It should occa- sion no surprise whatever to find sev- eral of the once weaker and disfran- chised sex filling the stats of the lawmakers at the state capitol An other field in which the women are becoming prominent is that of munic- ipal offices, and at least one town in Arkansas has elected a complete board of aldermen of women, one of the women elected having defeated her own husband on the ticket by a large majority.

Conference Report on Measure

Senator Harrison Assured
Schools Will Be Given Funds
In Deficiency Budget.

The Senate today adopted the con-
ference report on the District of
Columbia appropriation bill after a
debate lasting less than fifteen min
utes.
A storm Of debate over the COM
munity center clause was narrowly
averted. Senator King of Utah was
dissuaded from his purpose OF con-
tinuing his fight lon the community
centers by the assurances of Sen
ator Curtis that none Of the money
provided for them in the bill would
be used for other than educational
purposes.
SCHOOLS TO GET MORE.
There is much basis for criticism
in the work Of the community CEN
ters," said Senator King. 'If there
is any further proof of pernicious
activity on their part. shall oppose
giving them a single penny next
year."
Senator Pat Harrison drew from
Senator Curtis a tentative promise
that the urgent needs of the school
system in the District would be pro-
vided for In the deficiency bill to be
passed at the coming special session
Of Congress.
Senator Harrison criticised the Dis
trict government and the Board Of
Education for not responding prompt
ly to the Appropriations Committees
request for information regarding the
cost of constructing school buildings
in other cities of the country.
MEASURE GOES TO WILSON.
They have not given us any re-
port yet" said Senator Curtis. Il
have grape vine reports however.
that bids for a certain structure in
the District actually are thirty per
cent less than the amount estimated
and appropriated by the appropria-
ticns committee"
Senator Harrison rejoined by say
ing that the school building program
should not be delayed and Senator
Curtis agreed with him.
There was no discussion of the
-and-half or the 60-40 plan during
the debate. The latter plan is in
corporated in the bill.
The measure now goes to President
Wilson for his signature,

PARTY TOLD To-
.G|RDFORF|GHT
Love Urges Democratic Execu-
tive Committee to Plan Line
of Attack Now.

Renewed demands for immediate
reorganization of the Democratic
party were made today by Thomas
B. Love, national committeeman
from Texas, before the executive
committee Of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee.
MUST GIRD FOR FIGHT.
The executive committee was call
ed to consider the question of re-
organization and ways and means of
wiping out the party deficit. Ma
tional Chairman White invited Love
and Robert Woolley, both of whom
have recently backed a petition for
a meeting of the national commit
tee to reorganize the party, to ap-
pear before the executive commit
tee and present their demands.
"The time has come for the Demo
cratic party to reorganize," Mr.. Love
declared. 'I make no reference to
Chairman White or his retirement.
Congressional campaigns must be
conducted within the next eighteen
months and we must prepare for
them.
The Democratic party must be
placed on sound basis"
Both Love and Woolley denied that
their demands for immediate reor-
ganization were in behalf of any po-
tential candidate for the next cam
paign.
Love declared that Tsadore Dock
weller, national committeeman from
California; Samuel Amidon. commit
teeman from Kansas; Miss Archer.
committeeman from Pennsylvania:
and Miss Charl o. Williams, Of Tenn
essee, vice chairmaa OF the national
committee. will support his conten-
tions before the executive committee.
WANTS FULL MEETING.
There have been ffty-six signers
to the petition for reorganization, and
that is not counting those who have
withdrawn" declared Love. This is
more than half of those authorized
to call for meeting for reorganizs-
ton, and therefore believe we

"The testimony speaks
for itself.
"March II. 1921, in an
authorized interview, |
was indirectly quoted as
follows:
There should be no
more loans from the
United States Government

former Secretary of the
Treasury. He believes
that, except in time of

to tax it's people in order
to lend to other govern
