BY JOHN GARDINER.

Montreal, March 10.-Is- the 81
year-old unmarried woman less intel
ligent than the 21-year-old man?
Should the ballot box be denied the
woman until she is 80?
To both questions the @Uncle Joe
Cannon" Of the Canadian parliament
thunders vehement eyes"
This legislator, Senator David,
flung high explosive shell into the
ranks of Dominion's women's organi-
cations by presenting to the upper
house a bill raising the age for en-
REIMBURSEMENT of women from 81 to 30
years. He has just lost his fight in
behalf of his convictions, but the
women of the country have taken up
arms against the new sea of trouble,
which they feel may rob them ulti-
mately of all franchise privileges.
Married Women Wiser.
Senator David says his proposal,
which he will renew, is in line with
the principle adopted in England and
France for all women. After delib-
Grafton, however, he restricted the ap-
plication of the higher age to unnar-
ried women only. Married women, he
takes it, are wiser than their spinster
sisters.
The senator contends that the in
PRODUCTION Of women, particularly of
young girls into politics, is erroneous
and contrary to the spirit of the con-
stitution, to the working of British
institutions, and to the welfare of fam
lilies and the. country in general. Only
by frequenting clubs and political
meetings can a girl between u and
30 years of age learn to vote intelli-
gently, he declared.
"And, is it in those clubs and po-
litical meetings that they will learn
what they must know in order to be-
come good mothers?" he asked.
Otherwise, he went on, girls of that
age would absorb views of {: discon-
nected nature in their homes; their
votes would be hopeless
Need Wives and Mothers.
@What we want in this country"
he says, ais development in the shape
of wives and mothers. The more we
have of politics among women, the
less we have Of mothers and chill
dren."
Several other solons agree with Sem
ator David. 1t falls to the lot of Sir
George Foster, former minister of
trade and commerce, to be the plumed

TO CONSIDER PROPOSAL
Texas Senators Urge Government to
Take Over Kerrvillc Hospital.

Washington, d. c.. March TO-
Senators Sheppard and Mayfield, &C
companied by Captain Hudson of
Dallas, conferxed Friday morning with
officers of the disqualification division
of the Veterans Bureau to urge that
the federal government take over and
operate the hospital for ex-service
men occupied by the state of Texas
at Kerrville.
No definite answer was made, but
assurance were given that the pro-
posal would receive serious considera-
ton and a recommendation would be
submitted Hines at an early date.
The proposition which the senators
laid before the officials was that the
state of Texas would accept a mini
mum rental equivalent to IA per
cent on the investment of the state.
This item, it was stated, would
amount to between $4,000 and S75,-
900 a year. The need of hospital
facilities for ex-servicc men of that
section was stressed and the senator's
are hopeful that a favorable answer
will be given.

San Angelo, Tex, March TO-
Ralph II. Harris, San Angelo cattle
man and banker and recently elected
president of the Cattle Raisers' and
producers Commission Company, has
taccepted the gauge of battle from COM
mission men, particularly of Fort
Worth, who, he charged, are trying
TO break up the Texas and Southwest
drive a wedge between it and its al
lied cooperative marketing agency.
At the annual convention of the
Texas and Southwestern Cattle Rails
ers' Association, convening in Ell Paso
Tuesday, Mr.. Harris will tell how the
profit-sharing, cooperative marketing
agency of the producers, but little over
n year old, is selling cattle for in
stance, at 81 Car, compared with
SD charged by the commission firms,
and so :apidly is its business growing
that indications are that by the end
of 1928 it will be handling more live
stock on the Fort Worth ma -ket than
any other commission house.
Mr.. Harris is one of the leading cat
tie men of Texas and for years has
been an active member of the execu-
tive committee of the Texas Cattle
Raisers' Association and later the
Texas and Southwestern Cattle Rails
ers' Association. He came to San An
gelo from San Antonio, his birth
place, in 1880 at the age of IL and
he and his brother, Frank Harris,
forming the firm of Harris Brothers,
own ranches in Coke, Reagan, Crock
EFT and Upton counties. The firm con-
trolls about 400 sections of land and
handles an average of 10000 head of
cattle annually. Leasel b. Harris.
deceased, the father of Ralph and
Frank Harris, was one Of the pioneer
livestock men of the Concho country.
He once owned a large part of the
land upon which San Angelo is built
and was one of the organizers of the
Concho National Bank, now the First
National.
Solution Of Marketing Problem.
To make the Cattle Raisers' and
Producers Commission Company of
Fort Worth the best commission house
in Texas is Mr.. Harris aim. He be-
lieves that the producer-owned COM
mission house in the cattle yards Oi
the great packing centers of the ma
ton will be one Of the most important
factors in solving the marketing prob
lem that has always confronted the
livestock raiser. The packing inter-
rsts. in his opinion, welcome rather
than oppose the attempts of the pro-
,iucers TO market their livestock CO.
.operitively. But not 80 with the
commission men. in proof of which
contention Mr.. Harris quotes the fol-
lowing extract from letters sent out
by J. S. Todd, president of Evans
Snider-Buel Commission Company of
Fort Worth:
I'm regard to attending the conven-
ton at Ell Paso. we have about de-
! cided here that this convention is 60
in- to be frost, and if st. Louis,
Kansas City, ST. Joe and Oklahoma
City. as well as Fort Worth, will stay
away. we think it is the best thing
to do and ignore them entirely and
not go to the convention There are
about 1900 members now that belong
10 the association and only about 600
are interested in the cooperative COM
mission company. The other 1000
are paying the expenses Of maintain
ing and advertising this new commits
sion company and the majority are
not in sympathy with this move"

We detest exaggeration! But even
the most conservative statistics -
which are all we quote-on the SUBJ
ject of pecans as income producers
are so startling that they are almost
hard to realize.
For instance, it is carefully esti-
mated that your first profitable yields
should return your entire original in
vestment. And as early as the tenth
year single acre unit should be pro-
ducing as much income as if you had
invested $4,000 at the usual 60
You may know how conservative
an estimate this is when we tell you
that it is not at all unusual for a
grated paper shell pecan tree to
bear as much as 600 pounds of nuts
in single year, selling at from SOC to
S1.00 pound. And you have 20
trees to each unit!
It has no ending for youths in
come. Each year the production in
creases; the older the tree, the more
it bears. These hardy trees live for
hundreds of years and will still be
bringing prosperity to your children
and your children's children.
The beauty of this is that you
needn't "cramp" yourself for capital.
You may be buying your units for SIS
down, SIS month an acre.
Watch your trees grow while you're
paying for them; and before you
know it-so quickly does time fly
you'll have an active money-produc-
ing business that can fulfill your
fondest dreams.

Tax assessors and collectors of Ala bama sent a committee te the state recess committee on finance and tax ation Tuesday for the submission of sugg ggestions regarding the collection of taxes. The committee was com posed of l.. H. Montgomery, tax as sessor of Greene county; J. C. Privett, tax assessor of Dallas coun ty; Phelan B. Dorian, tax collector of Mobile county; James J. Flowers tax assessor of Montgomery coun ty. and James F. Hawk ins. tax col lector of Jefferson county.
 The committee urged the finance and taxation committee to recom- mend to the legislature the enact ment of the laws. which will provide methods for the assessment of prop erty not now on the tax books. It pointed out that automobiles espe- cially are escaping taxes now be- cause no method has been devised which will put them on the records. The suggestion was made that every owner of an automobile be required to file with the probate judge a cer- tificate showing that his automobile had been assessed for ad valorem taxes for the next year and that taxes for the current year had been paid to the tax collector.
 Another suggestion has been that every owner of an automobile be re- uuired to issue a deed when disposing of the car, in this way the deeds would be recorded in the office of the probate judge and not only would furnish information to the tax as sessor and collector but would not retard the theft of automobiles. as

Dr. Me Eachern and Dr. Robert Beard of Troy closed the testimony of the physicians.
 Sollie McLendon. one of the five defendants, was called to the stand and said that last October the five of them, George Harden, his son, Is sac Henry, and Frank Wilkes and himself engaged in friendly tussle and that when Stewart was on his knees George Harden struck him on the head twice with an ax and that Stewart fell forward dead
 The trial was halted Tuesday morn ing for short time by the illness of a juror, l.. c.
