Export sales OF wheat In yesterdays

600 and 100000 bushels The sale of
wheat to Brazil recently was due to the

Women Voters Change
Policy ON Candidates
League Will Support Those In
dorsed by Three.fouriI,s of
Its City Committee

The League. of Women Voters will
take part in the coming municipal cleo
mons By actively supporting whichever
candidate wins q three~quartcrs vote
of it's City Committee. This announce
ment. made yesterday, reveals an en-
tire change of policy on The part of
the women voters organization, of
which Miss Mary Garrett Hay is chair
man. Hitherto the league has opposed
candidates who did not measure up to
us requirements, but mas never taken
sides actively in support of cand-
date.
The change was brought about by
meetings in all the Assembly districts
iii the course Of the past month, when
the matter was voted upon by the rank
and file of the organization. Miss Hay
explained the new policy last night, as
follows:
This policy applies only to munic-
ral elections. When candidates Of
equal merit arc. put up by the parties
the league wilE as an organization re
main quiescent, b+lt if there is can
didate who embodics in his platform
the ideas and ideals of the league, and
who, after proper investigation, is
found to be so far superior to his OPP
ponents that three fourths of the City
Committee vote to indorsc han, the
league will actively support him.
"This action of the league as whole
will not bind any individual member
to cast her ballot in any way save as
her conscience Dictates"

Wilson Absolves
Baruch and Ryan
On Copper Charge
President Says Neither of
Them Made a Dollar or
Helped Fix Price; Work
of Both i'm War Praised

WASHINGTON, March 1.--Presidcnt
Wilson fatty denied to-day charges
made in the House by Representative
Mason, Republican, of Illinois, and
others that B. NJ. Baruch and John D.
Ryan had profited out of the govern
ment as result of the fixing Of the
price of copper during the World War.
Writing to Representative Garrett,
Democrat, of Tennessee, ths President
characterized the charges as 'irre-
sponsible gossip" and declared that he
could not allow this occasion to pass
without again expressing his great
confidence" in Mr.. Baruch ana Mr..
Ryan.
There was not suggestion Of scan-
dal connected with either Of these
gentlemen in any Of the war activities
IN which they played so important a
part" the President wrote, "and wish,
before the closing days of this Ad-
ministration, again to say how admira-
bly, they served the needs of the ma
tion and how unselfshly they devoted
their fine talents to the government in
every crisis which faced us during the
critical days of the war"
The President said that neither Mr..
Baruch nor Mr.. Ryan had anything to
do with the fixing of prices, and added:
TO state that either Mr.. Baruch or
Mr.. Ryan had Influenced the action of
the Federal Trade Commission in
ascertaining the cost of production or
attempting to dictate the recommends
tion either of the War Industries Board
or any Of the price-fxing committees
is utterly foolish and without founda-
tion in fact.

by me upon the recommendations of

Pledged TO Vote Repeal;

Assured of Adoption
From a star Corresponden.

ALBANY, March AT a conference
of the majority in the Senate, which
ended at an carly hour to-day, two moro
than the necessary number of votes
were found to insure the passage of the
Lowman-Betts daylight savings repeal
bill, which passed the Assembly last
week. This means the death of day.
light saving in New York State as a
whole.
Twenty-e eight votes were pledged not
only to this bill, but to the MuIlan- Gage
prohibition enforcement bill and for
the Davenport-Judson bill, 1corganizing
the State Tax Department and trans
fcrring the tax collection agencies in
the Comptroller's Office and in the Of
ficc OF Secretary of State TO the new
Tax Department..
The three bills arc part of the Gov
crnor's program, and the Scnate's ac-
tion removes all doubt as to the ability
OF the Governor to control the upper
house. He has already shown that he
controls the Assembly. Fear has been
expressed that the Senate would rebel
on some of the Governors measures,
especially the enforcement bill.
New York City WaIk-Out
That there was reason for fear of
this was evidenced in the Assembly
conference of the Republican members
to- day, which by vote of ninety to
six, upheld the Governors Labor De-
partment reorganizing measure, but
which gave only seventy votcs-six less
than the required maj jority-for the
enforcement bill
This was because of. the walkout of
most of the New York City members.
who contend that there is no need of a
state enforcement measure and to
adopt one would only tend to increase
the bootlegging industry and the
grating of those who are charged with
the enforcement of the Volstead act
But the bill, however, can be passed.
as more than a dozen upstate Repub-
licans who arc for the bill left the
conference to attend hearings believ-
ing that there would be no trouble in
obtaining the necessary number of
votes on any of the Governors meas
urcs.
The action of the Senate majority
means that there no longer remains any
hope of keeping the daylight savings
law on the statute books. Had the New
York City Senators who stood out
against the repeal when the last caucus

ALBANY, March IA decision

The decision primarily ends row
