PARIS, May 164French suff- ragettes have won new victory in the struggle for women's votes, which, in France, more than any other country, is battle of the sexes.
 On the surface, what has hap Poned is that the Chamber of Dep uties has passed bill granting wo- men the right to vote in all cleo tions and that it must be approved by the Senate which, however, has three times rejected or eluded vot- ing on similar measures.
 But the Tow down" on that fem mine franchise fight is the tale of a situation typical of the country and as old as Adam and Eve.
 Women Real Bosses Y The French woman is one of the most guileful in the world. She may [ not be pretty, she may not have a university degree. she may not have travelled far-outside France. But the jewel in her crown is her be- lief that she knows how to handle her man. That fact has kept her lby the hundreds of thousands from really wanting to vote.
 Many French women, in fact, consider the idea of suffrage an af-

front to their feminine technique. This, plus indifference to anything outside their friends home and work df they have iD has been one of the biggest stumbling blocks in the path of the suffragettes.
 The feminists point out that French women have the right to get passport, have their own bank accounts (unless they are engaged in another business than their hus- band,s) or sell their own real es- tate without their husbands con- sent.
 But, they say, many women are indifferent 10 all that because they scarcely are aware of the stringent laws. Their husbands provide for them and the households move dong. in content.
 On the other side of the fence are the suffragettes-an army which is growing consistently stronger and battling increasingly harder. Mem gers of some of the most aristocratic families in France are leading the movement, thousands of profession al women have joined the fray, along with clerks. stenographers, and some housewives.

A framework of boards to carry the number of sashes required should be made 18 to "A inches high at the back, 12 inches at the front. The standard hotbed sash is by 6 feet. Sprinkle 3 or inches of fine garden loam over the manure. The temperature of the soil should be taken and seeds not planted until it has dropped below 85 degrees F. Glazed glass is most desirable for the sash but heavy muslin may be used. A ccldframe is constructed in exactly the same manner except that no manure is placed beneath to supp ply heat.

DOUGLAS NEWS
CHAMBER MEETING
 DISCUSSES AFFAIRS

The subject Of the so-cailed strike situation on the road work being carried on here by Saiins Spokane Co.,, was one brought up under gen. eral discussions at the regular meet ing of the Douglas Chamber of Commerce last night.
 To correct wrong opinion of the matter it was mentioned that the Douglas men who were working on the road did not strike for the raise already mentioned for a days wag- es; they did not even strike, but were forced to quit on threat of picketing. They are willing to go back to work at the present time and at the former wage of 6Cc per hour, it was stated. The question will undoubtedly be settled within a few days however, as the general superintendent of the company is expected here Saturday.
