Women's Watch Tower in Back Capitol

'It is not merely headquarters for
our party that we plan," said Elsie
Hill, chairman of the National Wom-
ans party, "but an embassy for the
women of the nation, clubhouse
where they may stay, bureau where
they can secure information, in short,
a center of thought and activity for
women and vantage point from
which they may keep congress under
perpetual observation.

an ideal site for the lobbyist. 1t win

BILE for the officials and workers of our
party to be constantly 'on the job If
there is a job to be done. When an
important bill. such as the one we are
to introduce, removing legal disabili-
ties of women, is being pushed, our
watch tower win act as feminine
power plant running day and night"

which originally composed the build
ing erected after the British had

What Is Your Worth as an Individual?

$1,00O,000,000 year. Under his plan
there would be an exemption of $1O,-
600 allowed for each person.
Personally, am still of the opin-
ion that the adoption of the sales tax
plan would be the simplest and easiest
method of raising additional revenue
and at the same time bring a reduction
in the cost of living and a return of
business prosperity" said Mr.. Bacha-
rach.
However, as an alternative propo-
sition l am considering the presenta-
ton of bill which will levy a tax of
one per cent on the net worth of the
individual to take the place of those
taxes which feel very strongly should
be eliminated. Under the most unfav-
orable conditions, such a tax should
bring in more than a billien dollars in
revenue"
Advantage of one per cent turn
over sales tax to the government, the
merchant, and the small taxpayers were
claimed by it's advocates at the open
ing hearing on revenue legislation be-
for the senate finance committee.

VIM. Gilpin for National Statuary Hall?

rrAS the time arrived for Colorado,
II 60 years old as territory and 40
wears old as a state, to select dls-
tinguished citizen for place In the
national statuary hall in the national
capitol? Senator Nicholson thinks SO
and proposes William Gilpin, first ter
ritorial governor, as one of sufficient
historic renown to make him worthy
of being the states first representative
in the hall of fame.
Each state in the union is entitled to
two statues. More than half of the
states now have representation, some
with one and others with two. Just
whose statue shall go to statuary hall
is a matter for the legislature of each
state to determine.
81 think that Colorado is now old
enough as state to determine on at
least one of its early illustrious citi-
zeps as worthy of place in this ma
tional hall of fame" said Senator
Nicholson. "My first choice is Cover

whole West, as well as for Colorado.

"Tanlac acted with me just like 1t

myself getting run down the medicine

how it helped us and L don't hesitate

Brown of Chicago, president of the ex-

agriculture committee in opposition to
packer legislation, characterized the
meat retailers as ''the greatest prof

He urged the committee to desist try
ing to regulate the packers and to con-
centrate efforts on breaking up the
profiteering by the retail dealer.
Mr.. Brown furnished the committee
with a resume of survey which he

nized Colorado as great state. He
was named by Abraham Lincoln as
Colorado's first territorial governor.
Before he became governor he had
served in the Mexican war and had
led expeditions against hostile Indians
of the West. Indeed, it was Gilpin who
influenced congress to name our state
Colorado. He defeated proposal,
made by secessionists, to name the
state Jefferson. He went to Colorado
in wagon drawn by oxen. He served
as our territorial governor in 1861 and
1862. He kept the state on the side
of the union, taking position against
secession.

In the American jail at Samoa the
custom was established of rewarding
well-behaved prisoners with holiday
on Sunday. They were allowed to
leave the Jail on Saturday afternoon
with the promise to reappear on Ion

been cut down to great extent by
reason of the fact that some of these
