A Toast: “ Wilson—That’s All”’ Northwestern News ||| SCHMAHL TO HELP EDUCATE FALL VOTERS St. Paul, Aug. 30.—Foreseeing that { he’ll be kept awake nights answer- ing questions regarding the new ar- my of women voters and election rules affecting them, Secretary of State Julius Schmahl hopes by public- ity to educate the women voters as well as election officials thrucut the state before November. Wqmen Wwill be governed by ex- actly the same rules that govern men at the election booths, Schmahl said today. Election officials have only to register women as they have \been registering men—and it’s impontant that women tell their exact ages. Wo- men will vote, if registered, just the same as the men. Thousands of questions regarding the ‘““modus operandi” of suffrage are going to be asked of all officers from the corner policeman to the gover- nor before election day, and on elec- tion day officials forsee some con- fusion unless something is done to stop a flood of questions. Aside from the usual round of questions that would be unnecessary if persons who want to.vote wonuld read their news- papers, officials forsee only cne big difficulty. This is in voting facili- ties. *“No one can tell how many wo- men are going to the polls, said Schmahl. “We have already provid- ed election officials with enoush ma- terial for registration days, and we will send out double rations of bal- lots. [Election officials will be ap- praised to expect about as many wo- men voters as there are men, just as we will be on the safe side, but you never can teil whether 100 per cent nr only one per cent of the women are going to vote. We will leain by oexperience, of course, but we don’t want polling places all over the state flooded and confusion on eclestion 1ay. We are urging officials of ev- ery county to make ample provisions to take care of as many women as there are registered, at least.” McGHEE TRYING TO DEFEAT MODIFICATION OF 0DERS St. Paul, Aug. 30.—John F. Me- Gee was representing Governor Purn- quist of Minnesota at Washington to- day in an effort to defeat eastern in- terests who are attempting to sccure a modification of the Interstate Com- merce Commission orders giving the northwest a priority on coal ship- ment.
