NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, JULY 14, 1914. ROOSEVELT DESIRES WOMEN DELEGATES Says Fair Sex Should Be Admiticd to Constitutional Conveation. New York, July 14.—Col, Theodore Roosevelt. wants women delegates ,-elected tc the constitutional converd- tion next year. He says so emphati- cally in a letter which he has written from Oyster Bay to Lillian D. Wald, chairman of a committee that Is struggling to that end. The colonel says it will be a “rank injustice” it /omen are not elected to the conven- tion. ‘4 write to say,” runs the letter, “that I trust that open action will bé taken by the progressive party to insist upon the election of women delegates to the constitutional con- Yention next year. L ‘Women Now Hold Office. “It seems to me,” the letter goes on, “that any discussion as to wheth- er women'are eligible to hold- public office in this state is really academic, in view of the fact that, thanks to the change n the will of the people, many women do at the present mo- ment hold puklic office in this state. )For example, the state, through its) supreme court, has decided, in effect, that women can be notaries public, although the position of notary pub- ric is a constitutional and not merely 2 ministerial office. Now the making or revising of a constitution is a fun- damentdl act on the part of the state and there can, in my judgment, be no limitation to the eligibility of any per- son to represent the people in such convention, except those which -the neople themselves have inserted in the existing constitution under which the convention is called. - “There are at present at least fifty Wwomen serving on the boards of state asylums, hospitals, reformatories, in- . dustrial sehools and special schools for the blind and crippled. There are two womeén on the state commission | for the blind and two on the widowead mothers’ pension commission. In our private charitable work, women stand ahead of men in the importance of the functions they perform. There are 800,000 women wage earners in ‘New York city alone, and this fact is recognized by the bureau of "actory inspection, under which sixteen wo- men are inspectors. The majority of teachers in our public schools are wo- - men. Surely there can be no more ‘lmportam work than thie of educat- “4ng the next generation. Women are very heavy investors. It has recently been shown that in 262 railways ana industrial corporations which were invested in, there were 310,000 wom- en shareholders, Sex Has Vital Interests. “A mere consideration of the above facts is enough to show that in the first place women are now serving as public officials and in the next place that they have vital interests, which must be considered as in some de- ee apart from the interests of men. f: is to my mind rank ihjustice to ifail to have women representgd in the constitutional convention.” Mqveover, niany of the women can give infor- mation and assistance such as few #he can give in matters in which men themselves are primarily interested. I, . earnestly hope the progressive party will give a full representation ot #omn on its constitutional ticket.” " Colonel Roosevelt will be the guest | iof honor at a luncheon to be given by the State Woman Progressives at the Colony club tomorrow afternoon. Mhe luncheon will be given in con- ‘mection with a conference on state | Mmatters of ‘Interest to women, “GET TOGETHER” OUTING. State FElectrical Men Will Hold | Jollification at Savin Rock. All the various electrical interests ‘of the state are planning a rousing “Get together” meeting to be held at Savin Rock on July 18th. /At 1:30 p. m. a special steamer will take the party from Wilcox's pler to _Lighthouse Point where a ball game - between the Supply Dealers and the Central Station men will be staged. Both teams are confident of winning inasmuch as neither team has been defeated. this season. In addition to ball game, numerous athletic events will be held and valuable ‘prizes awarded to. the winners. At 4 g’clock the steamer will make the return trip to Savin Rock where an elaborate shore dinner will be served at the “Colonade.” The outing is being held under the auspjcgs of the Connecticut Get-to- i r ¢lub of the National Electric Light association, and an invitation to attend hes ben extended to the entive electrical industry of Connecti- ‘ept. | It 1s' expected there will be a attendance. Several pof the . jmest prominent electrical men in the signified their “4ntention of being present. Y. M. C. A. NOTES.

Washington, July 14.—Thousands of national banks have already re- plied to Secretary McAdoo's letter asking .the opinion of bankers throughout the country as to the advisability of lending government funds to banks to move crops. Many bankers urged the lending of government funds just as was done last year, when about $37,000,000 was loaned to banks by the treasury de-/ partment. In his general lefter, Secretary McAdoo also sought ad-| vice as to the best centers for dis- tribution of the money and the lo- calities where it would be most need- ed. It now seems unlikely that the fed- eral reserve board will be organized | immediately and Secretary McAdoo | will not have its advice in arrang- ing for crop movement money. There is nothing in the federal reserve act which specifically forbids the organ- ization of the board without a full| \membership—that is, five active mem- bers and two ex-officio members, the secretary of the treasury and the comptroller of .the currency. It is| customary, however, for such bodies to begin existence with their entire membership. W\CONVICTS RIOT AT TRENTON PRISO One Keeper Badly Injured Before Or- der Could Be Restored—Second Uprising in a Year. Trenton, N. J., July 14.—Three ! their parents. FLOWER DAY HELD. Center Church Vacation School Pre- sents Flowers to Many Children. The Vacation school of the Center church, which has now about 135 pupils, celebrated flower day this morning. At the close of the session at 11:30, the children, as usual, finished with the salute to the flag, Then, upon marching out of the room each received a bunch of flowers. The attendance of the school has increased rapidly since the opening a week and a half ago, and the ex- periment of a vacation school for children that should, K partake of the nature of a kindergarten and of a place to teach older children to make useful. things, has shown f{tself to be o success. The attendance the first few days was eighty. It now is about one hundred and thirty daily, proving by its increase the attractiveness of the enterprise to the children and The ages of the pupils are from 3 to 14, most of the older ones being girls. The school will be in session four weeks longer. It is financed by the Young People’s society of the Center church and is conducted by the Rev. Mr. Thienes assisted by volunteer workers. RAINS END DROUGHT. Charleston, W. V., July 14.—Heavy rains throughout West Virginia last night and early today ended the drought that for three months wrought havoc to growing crops. TWO AVIATORS KILLED. Otonakov, Russia, July 14.—Two more Russian army aviators, Cap- tain Jeusipow and his mechanic, were killed today by falling with their | aeroplane, which collapsed during a | flight. —_— hundred or more convicts,in the state prison here rioted yesterday after- noon when they were being led back to their cells from the workshops. The guards were unable to Testore | order for some time. J. P. Devlin, one of the Kkeepers, was so badly injured tnat he had to be taken to the infirmary in the prison for treatment. This riot is really the second that has occurred at the prison since the law passed by the legislature Ilast winter, abolishing prison labor, went into effect on July 1. On July 2 a number of the convicts, evidently coached by outsiders, went on a “strike” and refused to either work or go to the workshops. As a result the leaders were given a bread and | water diet which seemed to cause them to change their minds. On the Monday after the Fourth all returned willingly to the shops. ELKS CELEBRATE GOLDEN JUBILEE Fiftieth Session of Grand Lodge Be- gins Its Three Days’ Secret Session at Deénver. Denver, Col.,, July 14.—Politics was brought.into the twenty-eighth annual reunion of the Benevolent and Pro- tective Order of Elks and the goldén | jubllee of the grand lodge today. The fiftieth session of the grand lodge be- gan its three day secret session. Among other things it will consid- er charges made by Grand Exalted Ruler Edward Leach, in his annual report upon a tendency of some lodges to develope the social or “club” feature of a lodge to the ex- tent, in prohibition localities, that they have become subterfuges for selling liquor. Five thousand child delinquents have come under the guardianship of 308,083 Elks in 901 lodges in 48 states, and four possessions, Guam, Alagka, Hawali and Porto Rico, since the Rochester inauguration of the Elks’ ‘“big brother” movement in 1913. An appropriation of $30,000 to con- tinue their work, the publication of a periodical upon the movement and incorporation of the big brother com- mittee into the grand lodge are urged by that committee in a report to the grand " lodge.
