FRAG|sTS Of
WORLD MEET
IN ROME
international Woman Alliance
in Ninth Congress Starts
Drive on ''La tin-America."

ROME. May II. Votes for
women
This old rallying cry Of the suf-
fragists-now almost silent IN
America-rang through the Eter-
nal City today when the Ninth
Congress Of the International Wom-
an Suffrage Alliance opened an
eight-day session here. Delegates
representing more than thirty ma
lions are in attendance. Suffrag-
lists Of every race, creed and nation
ality are here to participates in the
congress.
Although the range Of subjects to
be discussed during the congress il
by no means restricted to the ques-
ton OF obtaining equal or partial
suffrage for women, one OF primary
purposes OF the gathering win be
to launch a drive for the extension
OF suffrage IN the Latin countries.
Strictly speaking. the so-called Latin
nations are now the only ones
where some form of suffrage equal
ity has not been extended to women.
Appeal TO MussOlini.
Despite the fact that he has an
nounced his opposition to the en-
tension OF the franchise to women
in Italy, Premier Mussolini has con-
scented to receive q delegation from
the congress some time during the
session. The suffragists are conf
dent that they viii be able to pre-.
sent arguments for their cause that
will modify, If not entirely over
come, the opposition of the pictur
esQue Italian prime minister.
Opened Two Days Ago.
In reality the conference opened
two days ago, when meetings of in
ternational officials OF the congress
began Today's session was chiefly
given over to conferences under
auspices OF the various standing
commissions. The formal opening,
with Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, in
ternational president, presiding, win
be held on Monday.
Under the general topic OF equal
pay and right to work, the conven-
ton will discuss the status Of mar
ried women in industry; questions
of hours Of work for women, night
work, employment OF women In
hazardous occupations and the en-
pigment Of mothers Of infant chill
dren in industry. q.
Following the exarnple of the
United States in passing legislation
giving married women the right to
retain or change their nationality.
the congress viii discuss a plan of
campaign for the extension of this
legislation to other countries Pro-
posals for such legislation are now
being urged in France, Switzerland.
Germany, Great Britain and other
countries. The congress proposes
to draft an international convention
covering this question and submit
it to all nations for adoption. 1t is
probable that the league of nations
will be petttioned to aid in the cam
paign for acceptance by all nations
of the convention.

AMERICA HALTS
SALE Of ARMS
Harding Refuses to Sell Guns to
European Countries.
U. S. TO KEEP SURPLUS STOCK
Presidents Decision Is Based on Be.
lief That Feeling in America Is
That Day of Armed Conflict
Is Passed.

Washington. Jan. 13.-The United
States government has adopted a pol
icy OF refusing 10 sell arms either TO
governments or 10 individuals when II
seems likely the weapons will be used
in conflict, II was announced at the
White House.
Coincidentally with this announce
ment. II was stated officially that this
government had received Information
from "a diplomat OF a business mind"
that a certain European government
was In the market for half a million
rifles If the United States had a sur
plus stock Il cared to dispose of. Pres
ident Harding. IL was stated, Informed
the State department that the proposal
was not to be considered and that 1t
should not even be brought TO the at
tentiOn of the War department.
Prospective Buyer Unnamed.
The White House spokesman de-
clined 10 identify the nation wishing
TO purchase arms beyond stating that
II was none Of the powers now en-
gagged In the controversy over repara-
tons in Europe.
The decision Of President Harding,
II was stated, was based on the belief
that American feeling generally is that
the day FOR armed conflict is passed.
The White House spokesman recalled
that more than year ago when troops
We're sent into West Virginia II was
discovered that many Of the arms be-
ing used by the cOmbatants there had
been purchased from the government.
Upon learning OF this fact, It was
stated the President Immediately or
dered the sale of surplus arms by the
War department TO be stopped.
Doesn't Affect Private Firms
While this Is the attitude Of the gov
eminent toward the sale Of arms, II
was made clear that there is no law
in the United States prohibiting the
sale Of arms by private firms.
Though the name OF the country re
ferred TO by the White House spokes-
man was not disclosed, It is known
that some weeks ago official repre-
sentatives Of France took up with the
War department reports that half a
million rifles were about TO be shipped
from New York destined for soviet
Russia. The report stated the rifles
were to be trans-shipped by Russia
into Turkey, which was believed at
that time to be receiving considerable
quantities OF supplies from the soviet
government.

The Express Is Held for a Parsonage.
Bob Connery, special conductor for
the Coast division Of one Of the chief
transcontinentals, was having late
breakfast or his day or az his little
cottage on the shore OF Puget sound.
when he was treated TO the unusual
sight Of a large car stopping before
his door. The chauffeur hurried from
the car TO the house with an envelope
in his hand. Connery, meeting him at
the door, opened the envelope and
found within an order in the hand
writing Of the president OF the rail-
road and over his signature.
"Connery:
"No. being held at Seattle termi-
nal until nine o'clock-will run one

The conductor, accustomed 10 take

Presidents and great people OF any sort

ten and looked up at the chauffeur.
The order was surprising enough
even TO Connery. Some passenger OF

who could have had the president Of
