". r :yn THE WASHINGTON TIMS, SATURDAY, MARCH 22, 1913. 16 jtvi&P$ggg APITAL ILL BE SUFFRAGE CENTER Women Will Have Offices Here From Which Campaign Will Be Conducted. General affairs connected with 'ie conduct of woman suffrage campaigns in different States of the union will hereafter be conducted from suffrage headquarters here. This decision was reached today. Leaders of the move ment hae felt the necessity for uniting all different organizations Interested in ti omen's suffrage and the Congressional committee of the National American Woman Suffrage Association was sent here last fall to organize this work. The carrying out of the pageant delayed peirnanent organization along this line, although it served to bring the need of closer co-operation to the attention of suffrage leaders, members of the Con gressional committee declared today. Since March 3, a complete reorganiza tion of the women's suffrage organiza tions here has been made. Many new committees have been named and new heads have been selected for many of the old committees. Headquarters at J 420 F street northwest, is a busy place now in preparation for the big mac meeting to be held in the Columbia Theater April 7 and the events which are expected to follow the "historical advance on the Capitol." Co-operation with the work of tae national council of women will be se cured through attendai -a at the annual meeting of that organlation to be held here April 16-19. of regular delegates from the different woman suffrage or ganlaztions of the country. Miss Flor ence Etheridge. president of the State Equal Suffrage Association of the Dis trict of Columbia and originator of the inaugural suffrage parade, has been named by Dr. Anna Shaw, president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, a delegate to the National Council of Women here. For the mass meeting here April T. Dr. Anna Shaw and Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the International Suf frage Alliance, have been chosen to speak. It has now been decided defi nitely to hold the meeting at 10 o'clock at the Columbia Theater and to have the delegates march to the Capitol to present their petitions to the Congress men of their several districts. Hundreds of protests against the al leged inefficiency of the police during tile pageant March 3, continue to be re ceived at suffrage headquarters. Among those Just received are protests from the Kansas Equal Suffrage Association. Topeka. Mrs. Lucy B. Johnson, presi dent: the Woman's Suffrage Association of Dayton and Montgomery County, Ohio. Mrs. Dorris C. Stevens, field sec retary; the Nebraska Woman Suffrage Association, Mrs. Viola M. Harrison, executive secretary; the Iowa Equal Suffrage Association. Des Moines, Iowa, Ruby J. Eckcrson. State secretary, and tfie Bhlnelander Equal Suffrage League, of Rhlnelander. Wis.. Mrs. C. P. Crosby, president. 'These letters all describe the manner in which the crowd acted during the progress of the pageant and take the form of resolutions of protest agalnsv the action of the police In falling to provide "adequate protection."

Thayer for Excise Board. Lewis M. Thayer, prominent in busi ness interests in the city, was chosen today for second place on the Christian Endeavor Union Mate for Excise Com missioner, following a conference with the executive board of the Anti-Saloon League A list of candidates for District Com missioner to which the Christian En deavor Union will be opposed Is being made up for presentation to the Presi dent. Two names most prominent on the list are Cuno H. Rudolph, the pres ent Commissioner, and Charles W. Darr. prominently mentioned for a place on the District Commission Both of these men are opposed because of their al leged failure to support the Jones-Works bill, or for alleged loxness in maters relating to the strict enforcement of the excise laws. Percy S. Foster was nominated for Commissioner by the executive board of the Christian Endeavor Union at a meeting last night. Shoemaker Is Noominated. A. E Shoemaker, attorney for the Anti Saloon League, was nominated as one of the temporary candidates for the ex cise board, and Myron J. Jones, di rector of the educational department of the Y. M. C. A., was suggested for a place, but he declined. A committee, composed of Rexford L. Holmes, Horace M. Glllman and Ell C.

Mr. Holmes said today that the can didates chosen by the Christian En deavor Union were being selected with a view to placing the organization on record in its attitude toward the liquor traffic here and the carrying out of the excise law. Mr. Foster, who Is a prom inent member of the Immanuel Baptist Church, Is superintendent of the Sunday school, and has been associated with Christian Endeavor work for many years. He Is regarded by the church people, Mr. Holmes said, as the logical candidate to oppose those, who are de clared to be In "sympathy with thp liquor interests."

ASK YOURSELF why you should deprive your family and yourself of the pride and satisfaction of liv ing in your own home when all you need is a little money and a little nerve to make the start.

Housekeepers' Alliance Urges That Center Market Foods Be Kept Covered By Owners. That there has been a marked Im provement In conditions of cleanliness in Center Market during tho past three years and that still further improve ment Is necessary Is the statement made In the report of the Housekeepers' Al liance through the committee on civic problems and sanitation.

Takes Cold Plunge In Chesapeake Bay In spite of the fact that he opened the bathing season yesterday by taking a lunge into Chesapeake bay. Assistant Scout Commissioner Wood today feels no 111 effects from his experlerce. Al though the water was as cold as Mr. Wood has ever experienced, and chilled him through, was quickly warmed. You remember the old-style, antique, diamond-fronted type of theatrical press agent, who could conjure a "gorgeous galaxy of beauty" out of hardened old chorus veterans and a "resplendent scenic investiture" out of a few faded strips of canvas? You do? That press agent, over whose neg lected grave Truth weeps not In mourn ing, has little or nothing on the United States Navy of today. When the navy goes out gunning for recruits, it puts a magnificent imagination and an abso lutely awe-lnsplrlng optimism on the Job. It employs literary talent of a unique order. To read of the life of Jolly Jack Tar aboard a Dreadnaught Is to read a tale that fairly makes the blood thrill with the Joy of adventure and of a glorious, care-free life that would make Captain Kldd and Jack Silver green with envy. That Is, as tho publicity bureau of the United States navy recruiting service paints It. That $16 Seems Small. To the average man the $16.00 per month sailor on board one of Uncle Sam's warships has a tough Job. It has never been thought Idyllic, Ideal, or exactly fitted for the young blood crav ing adventure. But hearken to this blissful word-painting from the navy circulars which are being spread broad cast over the country In the effort to stimulate enlistments: "Would you enjoy meeting the men who drive our great Dreadnoughts through the seven seas: men who can shoot with a ninety-ton gun as ac curately as you would with a twenty two caliber rifle, probably more ao; men who put an SOO-pound shot through a moving target miles away? "Would you like to talk to men who from long travel and experience are really citizens of the whole world; men who talk of Manila and London, Suez and Panama, as you talk of the suburbs of your own town? More Things To See. "Would you like to associate with spirited, athletic young men who love open-air life, football, boxing and- other sports? Men who love the salt tang of the sea, whose days are filled with new sights and new experiences, who have traveled and know foreign countries, other climes? "Men who are like this and do things like this are navy men. You would like to talk with these men and know them well, wouldn't you? Why? Because their life has been an Interesting one; their experience has made them Inter esting. How much finer It Is to be one of them. "Meet a navy man. talk with him. end when he tells you that he has a Job for life you will be surprised, and after you have talked with him you will know what an exceptional oppor tunity for promotion, eta. the navy of fers to a man who is worth while. "Your opportunity to know more ci these men, to Join them, to become one of them. Is here. Talk It over with your parents and use the cnclored blank. It you or your parents wish to write me. use the enclosed envelope, which re quires no postage stamp. Unless your jarents object, fill out tha blank with the first pen or pencil you can get hold of. If they do object, ask them to send lor the booklet themselves." Bar to Honor Memory Of Judge Thompson Arrangements for a memorial service In honor of Assistant Attorney General John Q.
