NEW YORK, July 5. Division Shoulders Heavy Burden. By the Associated Press. An “attractively feminine “omln"' with plenty of poise and no pose is how associates describe Mrs. Elils A. Yost, who already is hard at work following hee reappointment as director of the ‘women's division of the Republican Na- tional Committee Upon the slender shoulders of this mild-talking blond leader, who once was taught history and_literature by Senator Fess of Ohio in his schoolmas- ter days, rests the duty of winning women for the Republican cause. Two_years experience doing very thing, coupled with other years in West Virgina politics, given her a flying start on her in this campaign Leader Since 19) Long before the suffrage amendment was enacted, Mrs. Yost was active in education toward that change, and for prohibition. By 1910 she was a recog- nized leader in her pative State. Tt was from the position of Washing- ton representative of the W. C. T. U. that Senator Fess, then chairman of his party’s National Committee, called her to her present job. She was at that time considering making the race for Congress from her West Virginia' district, and appeared a likely choice for her party’s nomination for an un- expired term. But she accepted the director’s duties with alacrity. Mrs. Yost probably makes as brief a speech as any woman in public life. Men, especially, have commented ad- miringly on this trait. “Eighteen minutes is enough for any formal occasion speech,” she says. “Make it longer than that and it be- comes unfruitful.” Campaign “Rolling Along.” In her bright, airy office here, this small, blue-eyed smartly dressed di- rector has proceeded serenely with the organization of women over the country. ‘There has been no trumpeting or fire- works about the Republican campaign, she says.

GAS USED IN WARFARE BY ANCIENT INDIANS South American Tribesmen Em- ‘ployed “Poisonous Winds" Against Germans 400 Years Ago. By the Associated Press BOGOTA, Colombia.—Colombian his- tory records probably the first use of polson gas in warfare, more than 400 years ago. Strangely enough, the gas was used against Germans. The victims were Federmann and Al- finger, hired generals of the Spanish conquistadores. It was they who led an expedition from Venezuela in 1528 in search of the “Golden Man” of the Chibcha Indians, who founded Bogota. As they neared their goal they were attacked at Suesca by the Chibchas with bows and arrows. The heavily armored invaders repelled the attack and, to make their victory overwhelm- ing, made the mistake of following the Indians into a forest. Padre Prancisco Aguado, in his “His- tory of the New Kingdom of Granada, written in 1574, describes what h pened “The Indians attacked Federmann and his troops with odorous and polson- ous winds.” The priest added that three soldiers died and that the others, had to with- draw, partially blinded and suffering headaches. ‘Archeologists, working at Suesca on an artificial mound, which they believe to have been built by the Chibchas, re- cently were routed when a workman | broke into a pipe or tank and poisonous gas, believed to be artificial, escaped. The workman died in three hours. HOME DEMONSTRATION CLUB IS ORGANIZED Mrs. Parsons Hickman Is Elected President of Group at Lovettsville. Other Officers Chosen. Special Dispatch to The Star.

Before he reached the station, the mayor broad- cast an appeal for support of Roose- velt’s candidacy from the moving train. The parade had bands and pennants galore. The signs said: “Curley was right from the start” and “Curley for Governor.” James Roosevelt, son of the New York Governor, also took part in the parade.
