WOMEN IN POLITICS

Henceforth, one Republican Nation
al committeewoman as well as one
committeeman will be elected from
each state. Women already have
equal recognition on the Democratic
National Committee Admission to
equal representation on the National
Committee of the two principal part
les marks the real enfranchisement OF
women. Under our present system Of
party government, voters are limited
in their choices more than they rea-
lize in the dictation of these com
mittees.
Women have been interested poll
tically chiefly in various welfare and
humanitarian measures, such as the
child labor amendments, Philippine In
dependence, and the World Court May
the women, now admitted TO the real
strongholds and fountain sources of
political power, retain their traditional
idealism, and make 1t more effective
through a knowledge OF practical poll
tics.

MCCLURE PASS PICNIC
WAS BIG AFFAIR

A large delegation of Delta county
folks, boosters from points all over
the county, helped to make the Nc
tion great event. so went to the
top from Glenwood Springs, and ap.
proximately 500 persons responded to
the call. enjoying days outing out-of-
doors and showing by their presence
their desire for the early construction
Of the Mcclure Pass Highway.
By united cooperative teamwork,
the ranchers in the Muddy built four
miles of road from the terminus Of the
old road to point within two miles
this side OF the pass. At the parking
place, saddle horse were at the dis
posal Of guests many Of whom con-
tinued the journey to the top by horse
back.
The mystery car" driven by Eu-
gene Fronk made the trip to the top
with the timely assistance of two COW
boys and their ponies. Music was
furnished by the Paonia band, and an
address by Mr. Huffy postmaster of
Paonia, was responded to by state
officials, and also by local business
men Of the county.
The completion of the Mcclure Pass
road means much to Delta county from
point of utility, as it lessons the dis
tance to eastern markets, making pro-
vision for rapid transit for the pro-
duce of the valley. State Highway En-
gineer ]. ]. Vandemoor stated that
for 21a miles of trail up the west side
of the pass, miles of new road would
have to be built to reduce the grade
to SO, and for the same reason,
miles of road would have to be built
on the other side. This additional
10 miles Of road construction was es-
timated from S14O,000 to $3.50 900.
Colonel Peck, Supervisor of Grand
Mesa National Forests, promised full
consideration of the proposed Nc
Clure Pass route when the next ap-
preparations are set aside and stated
that an engineer would survey the
project this summer and revise prev
ious estimates of the cost on the
basis of additional mileage OF ap-
proach roads built since the extension
survey made few years ago.

Chicago Produce Market

chicago. June 10.
Wheat went up with a rush today.
nearly five cents a bushel. The i'm
petus came from fiurried buying due
to the government crop report indicat-
ing that the United States would have
but little wheat to export this season.
Closing prices for wheat were strong,
40 4sc net higher, July 1.0S4 to 1859
and September 1.09f to ITO, with corn
IL to 2sc up. oats at &c to 1t014c gain
and provisions varying from &c decline
to rise of 12c.
=. Most IF the big advance in wheat
months. took place almost as soon as
trading began, but the tip top was
reached on a fresh wave of buying
Just before teh finish. The govern
ment report as to winter wheat showed
so much greater loss than had gen
orally been looked for that the trade
was taken by surprise. Heavy selling
to realize profits led to only moderate
reactions from the bulge in prices and
the demand expanded with sufficient en-
highest prices yet touched this season
by the December delivery.
