What /! moved him especially, he added, was | the problem of reconstruction after the war. He considered it to be neither just nor expedient to withhold from "women the power or the right to make their voices heard directly. The fact that for three years there had been no recurrence of the “de- testable campaign which had dis- || figured our public life,” said Mr. As- quith, “would make it possible for any one to say that in changing their ‘position in regard to suffrage he and his assoclates had yielded to force what they had refused to yield ' to argument. ‘With the exception of the actual bearing of arme in the field, there was hardly a service which had contributed to maintenance of the cause of the Allles in which women had not been as active and efficient .as men. ‘Wherever one turned might be seen women who, without detri- ment to the prerogatives of their sex, were performing work which three years ago would have been regarded 2 as falling exclusively within the prov- / ince of men.

Loan of $50,000,000 for Ninety Days Is Oversubscribed ‘Washington, March 29.—The twelve federal reserve banks yesterday over- subscribed on ywenty-four hours no- tice a ninety day loan to the govern- ment of $50,000,000 at the rate of 2 per cent. a year. The money was borrowed on ninety day treasury certificates of indebted- ness to help tide over the government till June,- when the great stream of income and internal revenue taxes will flow into the treasury. An additional $50,000,000, it was announced, may be borrowed in the same manner be- fore the close of the fiscal year. Temporary financing of the govern- ment in this manner was made neces- sary by the depleted condition of the balance in the general fund of the treasury, reduced to approximately $58,000,000 and facing a further re- duction of $25,000,000 on Saturday when the government will issue a warrant for that amount in payment for the Danish West. Indies. The isspe of certificates of indebt- edness to run not longer than one year and to bear interest at a rate not ex- ceeding 3 per cent, has heen author- ized by congress up to $300,000,000, and today’s e is the first to be made under this authorization. In ad- | dition, Secretary McAdoo has author- iity to issue $474,000,000 in bonds for various purposes, including Panama Canal bonds to reimburse the treas- ury for the amount paid out of or- dinary receipts for the construction of the canal. Mr. McAdoo is under- stood to have the issuance of bonds under consideration. The quick subscription to the $50,- 000,000 issue of certificates by feder- al reserve banks alone—without ref- erence to any of the member banks of the federal reserve system, with their billions of dollars of resources—at a ! rate of interest 1 per cent. lower than the rate authorized, is viewed by of- ficials as a striking demonstration of the excellent condition of financial preparedness of the nation’s financial system for any events that the future may hold. “This is extremely gratifying,” sald Secretary McAdoo in announcing the action, ‘“and shows not only a fine spirit on the part of the reserve banks Cwrt afid Will Locate in Waterbury 1s still possible that the women may | . ~—Will Open Early in April. have to wait until after the war for the fullest recognition of their claims but the vote for women in some shape William J.*Sullivan, one of the best is now certain. i ot be Antriuced known young men in this city, has e will not be Introducec § just completed negotiations for the time after ;;T;tla:o:‘: &oenl;‘dlzr‘:l:’le“d other ursi| purchase of a lunch wagon, to be lo- gent business claim_priority. cated in Waterbury.

Keep persons out of the workrooms who have no right to be there. “I'll tell you why I am insisting on such precautions. Recently I found in a New Jersey town bandages which had been prepared at one of the Red Cross headquarters and which had been soakd in poisonous chemicals and then dried, so that when they were put to use they would kill the person on whom they were used. In addition, some of the dressings had been filled with ground glass, so that when they were used on open wounds they would cut and cause ting sores. “These discoveries were m in the last three weeks.
