IRON the field of their early service,
L which later encompassed the world,
has come two distinguished nominal
lions for the national roll of honor,
with which the League of Women Vot-
ers is marking 10 years of woman suf-
frage. Iowa dominates Carrie Chapman
Gait, Kansas proposes Susan B. An
thony.
Other States are eager to join them
in honoring these leaders recognized
because their work and their influence
brought to the women of this country a
new day of partnership in its public
life" but Kansas and Iowa have the
distinction of being the first to recog-
nize the service of these pioneers by
pledging themselves to raise memorials
in their honor.
In forwarding the nomination of
Mrs. Gait to the headquarters of the
National League of Women Voters, Iowa
atteSts to her greatness by the simplic-
ity of its nomination. They consider
her service as organizer and lecturer
for the Iowa Woman Suffrage. Associa-
ton, president of the National Amer
lean Woman Suffrage Association and
honorary president of the National
League of Women Voters" proof that
she is entitled to recognition on the
national roll of honor.
Because she headed campaign over
a proposed amendment to the State
constitution to enfranchise women,
which was the first SUCH amendment
ever submitted in any State, Kansas
dominates Susan B. Anthony for this
national roll of honor. These nomi-
nations, like all others proposed by the
States, are to be referred to the ma
tional advisory committee on the selec-
ton of names, now being formed. These
two names are among the first to be
proposed under the anniversary and
memorial plan, by which the National
League will honor in its tenth ami
verSary year the great leaders In the
woman movement in this country.
The league will continue its cam
paign of education. which 1t began in
1928, until the treaty is ratified by the

BY CoRINNE FRAZIER.

TXECUTIVE board members OF the
- League Of Women Voters, in
session at the Washington head
- quarters a fortnight ago, when
President Hoover authorized his
signature to the Elihu Root protocol
outlining the conditions under which
the United States should enter the
World Court, expressed themselves as
doubly rejoiced over the Presidents
action.
THE League of Women Voters finds
great cause for rejoicing in the sig
patsIre Of the United States on the
Root protocol" said Miss Ruth Morgan.
third vice president of the league, in
charge of the department of interna-
tional cooperation, first, because the
entry of our country into the World
program since 1923, when President
Hoover, then Secretary of Commerce,
talked to us on the wisdom OF making
this move and urged our support of 1t
ut our convention in Des Moines.
"Our second cause for rejoicing
comes from the fact that this same
statesman, who first made us see the
value of this alliance in the interest OF
international peace, now authorizes the
signing of the document himself, as
President of the United States. And
by an odd coincidence, he signed it
while we were in executive session in
the Capital and could be among the
first to tender our personal congratula-
lions to him upon this important step
in the consummation of an idea which
we know to be close to his heart"
Declaring that she believed the Root
treaty successfully interpreted the
Senate reservations and that she an
ticipated the ratification of the protocol
by that body, Miss Morgan expressed
the confidence of the league not only
in this action of the President which,
she said, points the way for the Ma
ton to follow" but in his entire con-
structiYe policy for peace.
1.-THE President is sincerely dedicated
to the task of establishing a policy
that would eliminate war entirely as
q means of settling international prob
1emS," concluded Miss Morgan, land
the League of Women Voters is stand
ing solidly behind him in this effort"
The board also expressed satiSfac-
ton through its child welfare chair
man, Mrs. Percy T. Walden of New
Haven, with the recommendation of
the President in his message that the
program of Federal aid for maternity
and infancy hygiene be continued.
1.-THE timely recognition of the value
and importance Of the work already ac-
complished through the Sheppard

nnent of Labor VIII unqueStionably give

The budget forming committee Of the greatest bus
mess in the world, the United States. is hard at work
preparing estimates Of the needs Of the various gov
ernmental departments.
The various committees are busily engaged ir
holding final hearings in an attempt to reduce the
total asked by all agencies to within the figure set by
President Hoover-S3 CAS- 900 900.
The budget bureau Is working on the sums hat
will be made available during the fiscal year 1881,
which begins July J..
There are several little matters which will rome
before congress for which no provision will be made
in the budget and which administration heads fear
may bring the total needed for the twelve months TO
more than s4OOO0 OOO 900. and political leaders very
much desire to avoid this figure. They consider Z
mighty blow would be struck at them If the enemy
could point to the present as the first -four billion
dollar government m the world.
One little thing which might work havoc with The
budget estimates is the Federal Farm Bureau. a Gre
alton CT the administration. This body already has
been given sl5o.00o.00O for Immediate use, but it has
been authorized to use up to S500.000ooo. And il is
believed the board may ask for at least an additional
flo0 100000 during The coming year.
Another little circumstance over which the budget
bureau viii have no control might be called "a little
Mediterranean fly in the ointment"
Department Of agriculture officials have indicated
they may ask $360O0000 with which to carry on the
fight to this dread pest in Florida.
Another extra-Erecial call NAV come from those
who have the Mississippi flood control project on their
hands.
SO the bureau likely will find itself beset by the
problems usually common to budget forming commit
tees. but in this Gaze the problems will be on a much
more Tigantic rcale.
The bureau has announced 1t will make public no
figures until its task is complete and the itemized
statement prepared for congress. That will be in the
second week OF December.

Of the meteoric construction OF the
