Women With Equal Rights
Must Be Willing to Submit
TO Man Jl1sfice-Mrs. Allen
Hostess of Kansas Has Frank Ideas Coal Field Trouble
Other Topeka Women Discuss the "Amazons"
in Southeast Districts.

What do the women of Kansas think
of their sisters of the Amazon army
that has caused troops to be sent to
the coal fields?
This question, pet to a large mum :
Der indicates TIE women are not OF
one mind. Some glory in the spunk
of their marching sisters. Others
frown and show their disapproval in
many ways.
Mrs. Lila Day Monroe. prospective
candidate for the Republican nominal
ton for secretary of state, said:
TT is the Old World idea. In the
corn riots and bred riots of England
and other uprisings of Europe, the
women have gone cut and taken their
places with the men. 1t is the Old
Worlds idea of how a wife should
stand by her man. I think l am right
in saying the New Worlds woman
stands by her husband just as Loyalty
but in a different way"
Mrs. Henry J. Allen. wife of Gov
ernor Allen. is standing by her hus-
band in what he is being called upon
to do with all the loyalty a woman
can show.
IF suffrage is to be what the
women contended they wanted then
think that most women will agree
with me that women who have o..
tanned equal rights with men must b !.
willing to assume equal responsibility
for enforcing the laws and must be
willing to submit to the same justice
men must submit to when they vio-
late the laws"

public counties, Kansas, and jefferson

ferred from the Washington county
district court to the federal court, the
papers having been received here this
morning. Alleged failure on the part
of the defendants to start drilling
operations on land sub-leased to them
by Bartlett. is the basis for the action
in which Bartlett is seeking to obtain
damages to the amount of 20,500.
The plaintiff states that he sub-leased
$4,000 acres to the two companies IN
der guarantee that drilling opera
tions were to be started within one
hundred and twenty days after April
30, 1921. Now Bartlett not only
charges that no drilling activities were
ever started, but states that the leases
will expire soon unless renewed by the
payment Of 81 per acre to the land
owners

Mrs. Charles l. Martin says d
seems to me that the women are ex-
cited and do things on impulse that
they wouldn't do if they but took time
to think about the matter
Isn't the situation queer" said
Mrs. c. J. Evans. when asked what
she thought of the feminine fighters.
"A few years ago if they had told us
such a thing was possible, we wouldn' t
have believed them, and anyway, you
can't help but admire them for their
courage"

Detroit, Dec. 16.-( Copyright, 1921.
by /. n. S.)-Henry Ford says that
business could be made good and the
cost of living reduced if it were not
for the shortsighted greed of manu-
facturers and merchants who persist
in cIinging as near to war prices as
possible.
"A clerk in a shoe store, after he
had waited on me today. asked me
when business was going to pick up
said Mr.. Ford. How much would
you charge a man worth 100000 for
a good pair of shoes - 1 asked.
About $13,' replied the clerk. You
sold the same pair of shoes before the
war. didn't you, for Sc? The clerk said
that was correct. Well L replied,
business will pick up and be good just
as soon as you put the price of those
shoes at 81.
No Sense in Present Prices.
There is no sense in present
prices" continued Mr. Ford. 4 have
compelled everybody who sells MI
terial to me to sell it at pre-war
prices or a little more. When I cut
the price of my car, year ago, l
refused to pay more than what I am
now paying for materials. That is
what the public should do-refuse to
buy at present prices. The thing can
be done, too.
