 aster of Organization,

Tokio, Sept. S.-In the solution of the deadlocked financial policy of the old ministry the 'Oriental Economist finds the only raison d'etre of the Ka- to cabinet Whatever the ostensible profession it was on its deadlocked financial policy that the Takahashi ministry was shipwrecked, says that paper. In order to avoid Urea ding in the same footsteps, the new ministry ought, to make it it's first duty to ef- feet financial improvement.
 The aim could be attained only by it's faithful persuance of strictly negative financial policy, the princi- pie of which lies in the depreciation of commodity price. The question is, in the journals estimation, how to lower the abnormal level of price After referring to the unfavora ble ef- feet of the prevailing anomalous price on the general state industry, the suggests cessation of loan Notation, drastic military reforms and the removal of the ban on the gold export, as the most effective means of attaining the object in view.
 These are policies, however, that re- duire every resolution and courage for execution, thinks the journal. be cause with such parsonage as Baron kato who seems to have never had any opportunity of studying finance and economy, as the head, the new is unlikely to succeed where its predecessor has failed"

BURGLARS RETURN
 LIQUOR THEY STOLE
A Case of Softheartetlness Causes Them to Bring Back Wet
 Goods

Nyack, N. Y, Sept. S.-Last month Morris Kohn who has a large estate at Mantle near here had his cellar raided by burglars and about all his liquor removed.
 Yesterday he went around with a dazed look upon his face because sometime between midnight and this morning they returned and left stacked on his big porch practically all of the wet goods they had taken in August.
 Attached to one package was a crude note which said the gang had experienced change of heart after seeing a man in a movie nearly die of thirst and decided that to rob a mans cellar was something no self respecting burglar would do.
 Here's some of your booze back" read the note. Since we took it we got to thinking maybe you might get sick and not have any guys die from being cut off sudden.
 So as we were game enough to take a chance of being shot to grab 1t we are now game enough to take chance of being grabbed to slip some back in the original bottles. And also if we hadn't seen a movie on 14th street today where guy almost croaks for want of a drink you would not be getting this ncA of the stuff We'll meet again some time.
 YOURS TRULY"
 Deputy Sheriff Jenson, who has been working on the first burglary is trying to trace the note writers but Kohn is in favor of letting the matter rest as 1t is.

WOMEN IN EGYPT
 > DESIRE TO VOTE
Are Having Political Battle for
 Right to Franchise

Cairo. Egypt, Sept, S.--The mem. bers of the first Egyptian parliament under the new constitution, are to be elected in October, and already poll Gcal interest, not to say excitement 10 running high.
 All men over 2b years of age are entitled to vote. Women. nevertheless are In no sense idle. They are making . good fight for the franchise, even though the odds are greatly against them. for Egyptian men look upon their women kind as possessions rath- CT than co-workers in life.
 Women Need Vote
 The president of the Mothers of the Future of Egypt Is Madame Anee- sch Hanum el Rasheedy Speaking on the emancipation of her sex re- gently she said: The women of Egypt should be allowed to vote because they are fit for 1t. We shall win our light because the Koran and the world are on our side. The Koran says: The women ought to behave towards their husbands in like man. ner as their husbands should behave towards them, according to what is just
 Tt is absurd to allow a citizen to exercise the franchise merely because he is of tho male sex, where highly educated Egyptian women, from princssses downwards, are to have no say in legislation on questions that affect them equally with the rest of the population. The civilized nations already have adapted the principle of woman suffrage. Egypt cannot afford to drag behind and still maintain her prestige in the eyes of those nations"
 The men. at the present time, are inclined to dismiss the aspirations of the women with the generality that the average woman in Egypt today does not possess the qualifications necessary to intelligent voting.
 Political Interest Grows
 Political parties which have been dormant during the British occupa- ton are awakening, and with them is coming the revival of old anim osities The followers of Zazhluol Pasha, the deported nationalist leader. are par ticularly bitter against the present government.
 The city vote will count large in the coming contest. To the poor peasants or fellaheen, the new parliament means little or nothing. To them all rulers and officials are pests, to be endured as well as may be. They are ignorant, and are interested in noth- ing outside of their villages. Hence, they offer opportunities to unscrupu- lous politicians. ITO educate the people to some idea of their political responsibility, says a local daily, lis absolutely necessary if the future political power is not to find its way to the hands of men whose only in- terest is personal gain"
