HOLDS LA Toilette
FOR D. C. SUFFRAGE
Mrs. Bischoff Declares Senator Au-
thorizes Statement Favorifg
Vote for Capital.

Suffrage for the District of Column
bia is favored by Senator La Toilette,
candidate for President on the Inde-
pendent Progressive ticket, according
to Mrs. Gertrude Bischoff, chairman
of the committee on woman's organ
iZationS of the La Toilette Wheeler
campaign. who addressed a meeting
at the Womens City Club last night
In her address Mrs. Bischoff said,
Il have been told the women are an
xious to know how Senator La Fol-
lette stands on, suffrage for the
District of Columbia. He believes in
equal rights for all. He was early
an ardent advocate of woman suffrage
and has always been consistent. So
tonight / have the authority, COM
ing directly from the Senator, to say
to you that he stands for District
suffrage"
Ernest Gruening. publicity director
of the La Toilette Wheeler campaign,
emphasized the appeal which the
Progressive platform should make to
women. When it was bella edly de-
Cided years ago that women were
people and not to be disfranchised
along with the lunatics and criminals,
there was alarm in the two political
camps according to Mr.. Gruening.
Women were not practical it was
said, they did not understand the
game; they would turn things topsy-
turvy by not playing according to
rules. Translated into their own
thoughts. what these politicians
meant was. The women of America
not having been carefully trained to
swallow the bunccmbe that we give
them, are likely to spoil their sine
cures"

Myth of the Cypress Tree.
ON the Kansas Coy Times

From the Kansas Coy Times
The story mythology tells of the
cypress tree is that Cyparissus, son
of TeIephus, while hunting one day.
accidentally killed one of Apollo's ia
vorite stays. He became SO filled
with remorse at the mishap that he
begged Apollo, his dearest friend, to
put him out of his misery. The god
passionately changed him into a
tree. Hence its name. It's floral
meanings are despair, mourning or
sorrow.
Cypress wood was used in the con-
struction of st. Peters gates at Rome.
After LOO years use they were taken
down, comparatively new, to be re-
placed by brass. Cypress was said by
some to have been the wood the cross
was made from, while many refer to
the material as cedar. and other
writer's assert it was from oak But
the aspen is the more generally ac-
cepted as the wood used for the cross
of the crucifiXion. .

Early rising is habit acquired by

People Starve,
Refuse Aid From
Outside Sources

London, March 5.-AN condition
lkened to Irish famine times is now
in the Hebrides or Western
Isles, that group of forsaken islands
off the bleak coast Of Scotland,
where, of the population of 10000
there are 10000 people starving and
powerless themselves to relieve their
condition.
At the best these people barely
make a livelihood. Their life is d
continual struggle against relent-
less climate and "a still more relent-
less soil. The last year has been
more than usually hard, and mis-
fortune has come so steadily that
now, without food or fuel, the people
face misery unless outsiders force
them to accept charity or move to
the mainland.
To help these people is prob
lem. They live in poor huts, talk
only their own language, and have a
hearty dislike for anything English
or MODERN. But the real tragedy is
that they resist any suggestion that
they SHOULD migrate to more, pro-
du Give land. They have stubbornly
refused to do this for the last
hundred years, but continue to bear
the hardships of the islands while
they might become happy thriving
folk I'm different land.
The islanders regard with sus-
picion the efforts of any outsider tc
help them with money, food or cloth

cottages, awaiting aid from then

Hard Work Makes
German President
Happy on Birthday

Berlin, Mar. 55.-Friedrich Ebert,
president of the German republic,
Yesterday celebrated his 33rd birth
day anniversary, but to him it was
just another day in his life and in
that of the republic. His early life
was one of hard work and it con-
tinued when he became the first chief
executive of the republic. In fact,
after he had been president for some
time, he confided to friends that in
that position he had worked harder
longer and more steadily than in the
day when he made saddles, delivered
bread or worked in his Bremen res
taurant.
President Ebert has always adhered
to his original pledge to the republic
that if hard work, plus loyalty and
application to details, political and
| otherwise, would hold the republic
together, he would give the best that
was in him. Thus the mere passing

LABOR BUREAU
WOULD REVISE
HOURS0F LABOR

Geneva Mar 5.-Official state
ments issued recently by the Inter
national Labor Bureau showed the
tendency in various countries to re
wise the hours of labor. 1t was not
ed that in Belgium a bill has been
introduced to amend the existing
eight hour law limiting the restric-
ton to actual hours of actual work.
In Germany, it is pointed out, the
eight hour day remains in principle,
but provision is made for exceptions,
and in some industries, notably in
the Ruhr. a prolongation of hours OF
work is already in operation or on
the point Of acceptance, despite some
opposition by the workers. In Den
mark, the question of slightly in
creasing the hours of work is being
discussed.
On the other hand, says the labor
office, word comes from Bulgaria that
the government is gradually extend
ing the application of the eght-hour

LIMA TRIES
TO SET up
CENSORSHIP

Lima, Peru, Mar. 5.-Juan Leguia,
son of the President of Peru, recent

United States vicezconsul here,
Chauncey B. Wightman. Not only
the assault but the subsequent de-
velopments have greatly disturbed
the American colony.
The government censor in the cable
office Intercepted a press account
which had been regularly filed, and
ordered the message destroyed. The
foreign ministry directed the cor
respondent to appear at the foreign
office for censure. and explained that
the government was scensuring all in
coming and outgoing cablegrams. To
add to the trouble the government S
daily paper, La Prensa, published Il
one sided account Of the episode un-
der the heading, "A Deserved Lesson
While it gave No names. the indivi-
duals involved were well-known and

Vice Consul htman, who saw
war service in France, entered a

and was ordered out of coach by
Leguia who said it was reserved for
his family, including sick child. He

career came when he substituted
one night for his law partner at one
of Tom l.. Johnson famous political
meetings.
That speech ultimately made Baker
successor to Tom Johnson as mayor
o. Cleveland. Johnson was attracted
by Bakers youth and ability. He
became Bakers preceptor; he gave
him job in the city law department.
Baker made good. He ran for city
solicitor and held that job from
1902 until 1912. He helped Johnson
win his famous fight for Scent car
fare. He was even reelected the
year Tom johnson went down TO de-

Baker was mayor of Cleveland

ed the first provisional government
of the republic. He became the first
president Professionally February n
1919, when he was chosen by the
Weimar national assembly. A presi-
Dental election was scheduled for
1922, but this was postponed because
of the unsettled conditions and Ebert,
who had made good, was requested
by a coalition Of several parties to
remain in office until 1925. This he
agreed to do.
President Ebert cares little for
public show or entertainment and
finds his greatest pleasure in hard
which he now hopes
will result in general good for Ger
many and it's people.
