WOMEN FOR CONGRESS

No less than IA women have received
nominations for congress this year, and are
now actively engagedin their election cam
paigns. Of these, five are present mem
bers seeking reelection. One, Senator
Hattie w. CaraWay of Arkansas, who was
chosen to succeed her late husband for the
remainder of his term, seems sure of being
elected for full term of her own. !,
Of the four women seeking, e-alsction
to the House, three are republicans and one
is a democrat Of the nine new aspirants,
four are democrats, four are socialists, and
one is republican. All four socialist can
didates are from Pennsylvania, which also
offers one democratic aspirant.
The most prominent of the new women
candidates for congress is Judge Florence
E. Allen, who has been justice of the
Ohio Supreme Court for II years, and is
democrat
Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen Of Florida,
daughter of William Jennings Bryan, was
defeated for the democratic nomination in
her district in the recent primary, although
she is conceded to be one of the ablest
women eyer.to serve-in congress. 1t is said
that prohibition was factor in her defeat,
her opponent being an avowed 4wet, while
Mrs Owen leaned toward the @d1y'' side.
It may be recalled that Miss Jeanette
Rankin IF Montana tho fiysst woman avor
to be elected to congress, served only one
term, 1917-1919, being defeated for re-
election largely because of her opposition
to the entry of the United States into the
World War. She, too, was an exceptionally
brilliant woman, but her pacifist tendencies
at time when patriotism ran high caused.
her undoing.

THRIFT AND CRIME

Encouragement of thrift as means
of reducing crime is suggested by we'll
known publicist, who declares that ex-
travagant habits in many cases are the
direct cause of banditry.
Aside from financial gains possible
through economy and thrift, the habit of
saving has a stabilizing effect upon ones
character. The person who is laying aside
something each week or each month with
the idea of ultimately securing financial in
dependence is more dependable than one
who spends his money as fast or faster
than he makes it.
Many who have resorted to dishonesty
in order to obtain needed funds quickly are
those who have been first led into extrava-
giant living. Allowing themselves to in
dulge in luxuries in excess of what their
earnings warrant, they more easily yield to
temptation to dishonesty In its various
forms.
/ Habits of thrift should be inculcated
early. and should be encouraged at every
turn. Those who have acquired such habits
are generally Industrious. ambitious and
honest

OHIO FOR ROOSEVELT

Ohio, which is one of the doubtful
states, seems to be swinging into the Roose-
welt column.
The Cincinnati Inquirer, which is TAX
ing poll of that state and whose polls are
generally reliable, is showing vote of
about two to one in favor of Roosevelt, in
the second week of voting. IS
The vote has been taken mainly in the
neighborhood of Cincinnati, but it must be
remembered that this city is naturally re-
publican, as are the outlying districts, and
in special election last spring at time
when the democrats were generally VIC
torions. this same section elected repub-
lican to succeed the late Nicholas Long
worth by normal republican majority.
In that election the republican candi-
date was a man of unusual popularity,
which may have helped to prevent voting
demonstration against the administration
But the fact remains that Roosevelt is
leading Hoover in the Cincinnati sections
of Ohio.
