LADY ASTER TO TAKE A
REST BEFORE TELLING
WOMEN OF THEIR NEED
fBy Associated Press)

New York, April 20.-Lady Astor,
who will attend the dinner of the
English1speaking union tonight, will
not go to Baltimore Immediately aft
erward as originally planned. She
will spend the time until Sunday
with her sister, Mrs. Charles Dana
Gibson.
Both her sister and her husband
decided that the first woman mem
ber of the house of commons should
have little rest before attending
the international conference of the
League of Women Voters in the
Maryland city the last of the week
after her strenuous first day here.
Town Hall was packed last night
by men and women who cheered
Lady Astor, as she urged her femi-
nine hearers to "be up and doing" in
the world. Her husband was blamed
for starting her "on this downward
career from home to the house," but
Lord Astor, a philanthropist who
had worked in Plymouth for eleven
years to aid the people, finally de-
cided changes in the laws were nee
essary to changed conditions.
A government by both sexes was
the ideal all should strive for, said
lady Astor, who declared that only
through such government could
children, the home and society get a
better world in which to live.
The enthusiasm of her audience
became so great that at her close,
Lady Astor was forced to hold re-
ception for the hundreds who crowd
ed forward to shake her hand.

Coal Strike Puts
Big Cities Into
Market for Fuel
tBy Associated Pressl,

Norfolk, Va, April developments
of coal from this port to New York
are gaining headway as the strike of
miners cuts down production in the
fields normally supplying that city
with fuel.
While it had been expected all
along that the curtailment of output
in the union fields would eventually
result in increased demands from
coastwise points on this market,
shipments to New York did not be-
gin to run heavy until this week.
Coal shippers here expect that
from now on the movement will in
crease in volume so long as the strike
continues. Movement from Hamp-
ton Roads to New York is now pro-
ceeding by steamer and by barge
there is urgent demand for bottoms
to lift cargoes destined to that city.

supported the amendment increasing
the enlisted personnel from $1,000 as

Auto Engine Heats
Up and Explodes;
on Augustine Road
(By Associated Press)

st. Augustine, April 2O.-Mlss
Mildred Allen, of 113 King street,
narrowly escaped serious injury
when her automobile engine explod-
ed and burned up her car on the road
between Tocoi and Elkton at about
$3.50 o'clock Monday afternoon. Miss
Allen suffered painful burns on both
hands and the car was almost totally
destroyed.
The cause of the accident is at
tributed to an over-heated engine.
Miss Allen had left the city Monday
morning for Tocoi. Travelling over
the sandy road, often in low gear,
overheated the engine and on the re-
turn trip, between Tocoi and Elkton,
she noticed smoke rising from under
the floor board.
She lifted the negine hood and saw
that fire had developed and, as she
turned to get sand in an attempt to
extinguish the blaze, the engine eX-
ploded and the whole front of the
car burst into flames.
Miss Allen saved a suitcase from
the car and was forced to walk sew
eral miles on the little-traveled road
before she could get assistance. The
DESTROYED car was covered by insur-
ance.

This is a story of the manner in
which business management of a
city, just 1ike competent management
in a factory or a store or on farm,
saves you money. 1t is good story
for those who always have voted the
straight ticket" "hated reforTners,"
stood by "de ring" and helped one
mayor or one set Of councilmen to
hold office year after year because
they chad the experience" 1t is a
good story for those-often the mi
nority, sometimes the hopeless minor
ity, though the right is never hope
less who have stood out through
weary years in te fight for clean city
government, for the elimination of
politics in municipal management, and
for the selection of the best and most
competent man, regardless of his pol
itical affiliations, as director Of the
destinies Of any American city.
so ...,
This is the story of business man
agement which, installed only six
months ago, with only small part of
the 1921 income with which to work,
found economic leaks, which, stopped,
saed nearly $4,000 to the people of
that city. 1t is the story of a business
management, which, without "inves-
tigating" anyone, past or present,
without going into any political grave
yards, and without revealing any
graft, uncovered waste of approx
imately $125,O0O in the annual budget
and cut that much from the 1922 ex-
penses of operating the city. 1t is a
story of city management, which,
notwithstanding these reductions, is
giving the city better government,
better law-enforcement, better street
improvements, better educational IA
cilities, and is taking over public util-
tiles for the benefit of the city, with
moneys saved over and beyond the
large reductions already mentioned.
1t is, in brief, the story of Sacra-
mento, capital of California, a city of
about $4,000 inhabitants.
1t reveals the waste which perme-
ated virtually every department of city
government, a loss of the taxpayers
money due more to the system of gov
ernment. than to any individual, and it
shows, with remarkable clarity for an
economic experiment, the methods by
which the avenues of waste down
which the peoples money went were
discovered, and how the "Closed
Street" sign was put permanently
across these highways of loss. -
AS a result of the city management
system, it will cost exactly $123, ,281.-
SO less to operate the municipal ma
chinery in Sacramento in 1922 than it
did in 1921, and, by the same means,
it cost $6,17S less to run the city in
1921 than it did in 1920, though the
