Watson Draws S
Fire From
Women
Indignant at Charge They
Have Lowered Stand
ard to Meet Men.

ENATOR JAMES E. WAT
SON has let himself in for
lot of censure for the
pessimistic views he expressed be-
fore school teachers at the County
Institute at the Courthouse Friday,
according to some Indianapolis
woman.
Among other things, Senator
Watson declared women have been
successful in their age-old struggle
to obtain single standard Of con-
duct with men, but have lowered
their own standard in the process
instead of raising the mems
standard. He also leveled an ac-
cusing finger at the modern
tendencies, automobiles, motion
picture shows and said there is a
pronounced tendency to disregard
all law.
Exception is taken to these state
ments.
Highly Indignant
Il am highly indignant" says
Mrs. David Ross, Haversticks
Park, national president Of the
Indorsers Of Photoplays. There
has never been a time when wom-
en- were more interested in ele-
waiting rather than degrading.
Their interest in civic affairs and
better homes, better motion pic
lures, better church systems, can
not help but bring them to a
higher state of mind.
II would hate to have the young
women of our community take
such pessimistic views. L am dis
gusted with the Senator. He has
no right to say such things about
our wOmanhOOd. Our women,
high and low, have set for them
selves high ideals and standards
and are trying to do helpful
things"
Senator Watson made some
rather radical statements" said
Mrs. Bert S. Gadd, S8 Whittier
Pl., president Of the Indianapolis
Local Council Of Women.
Points to Club
Women are not adopting the
masculine standards Of conduct,
but are upholding their own
standards with the splendid
women's clubs which we have
here and in other cities" MRS.
Gadd continued.
Foreign women have lower
standards of conduct than the
American women was another
observation of Mrs. Gadds'. I'm
her travels she said she saw
women from other countries smok-
ing and the American women did
not.
And the automobile is not a
vehicle to lower our moral stand
ards" she said Didn't we have
the horse and buggy in other days?
1t served the same purpose as the
auto does now"

Steadily increasing coal
prices, but no marked shortage
of coal, apparently is the situa-
tion Indianapolis will face this
fall and winter as the result of
the anthracite coal miners
strike in Pennsylvania.
AS the situation stands now, retail
coal yards of the city have fairly
large supply of coal, with plenty in
sight at the mines. The only pos
sible shortage in sight now is in the
pocahontas supply. Anthracite users,
cut off from their favorite coal, in
variably turn to this grade Of soft
coal.
The yards have good supply of
splint Goals. that is the harder grades
of bituminous Goals from West Vir
ginia and Kentucky, on hands. In
diana coal does not stand storage
we'll and while there are no large
stock on hand a bountiful supply is
available on q short haul from the
Indiana coal fields.
Rejoicing in Indiana
a plain matter of fact news
6NRhe anthracite strike was re-
ceived with only slightly concealed
rejoicing by Indiana operators and
miners. They see relief from condi-
tions which have been growing con-
stantly worse year by year since the
war, until they have become des-
perate.
Too many mines, too many miners
and inability to meet outside compe
tition has been the story Of Indiana
coal mining during recent years. In
the State there are about 200 mines
and 10000 miners. Yet even in the
days of the flushest prosperity all
