The Thompson proposition ~was that both Thompson and Senator Sherman with- draw from the fight and suggested that John B. Skinner of Chicago, a Thimp- son man, but favorabl to Lowden, be elected as a compromise candidate. The Lowden headquarters announced that e proposition was rejected.

SUFFRAGISTS TO RESORT TO PICKETING; NO HECKLING June 6.—Polite but impres- ing of the republican national ventlon was decided upon today by shock troops” of the national women's party here under the leadership of Alice Paul. The picketing will start Tuesday morn- ing and continue indeftpitely. More than a hundred women, representing 22 states and every phase of women's activities, all carrying banners bearing the names of their states and slogans, will occupy positions outside the Coliseum. Other women will work among delegates from their states in the various state head- quarters. - Verbal heckling has no place on_the programme. Every effort of the suffragists, Paul said today, will be directed toward inducing national leaders to urge the governors of Connecticut and Vermont to call special sessions of the legislatures in their states and pass on suffrage. The legislatures, Miss Paul insists, are ready to ratify the suffrage amendment if the governors will call the special sessions. None of the suffragists is paying any at- tention at present to the wotding of pro- posed suffrage planks in the republican platform. They hope for strong endorse- ment of their cause as a collateral move, but they insist that the time is past for platform declarations to be of much as- sistance to them. Direct action on anti- suffrage governors is the short cut to a olution of the entire suffrage problem, it is declared. Suffrage headquarters—a little shop directly across Wabash avenue from the Coliseum, nestled away among half a dozen billboards advertising everything from shaving soap to automobile acces- sories—presented a busy scene today. The room is smaller than a sleeping car, and with scores of banners, bundies of literature and press statements scattered about, badly crowded.

Platform Party Leaders Are-at Work on .League of Nations—Plank on Mexico is Incomplete. Chicago, June 6.—With the convention circle of party leaders virtually complete, the republican platform builders went se- riously to work tonight on the more troublesome of the planks remaining to be fashioned. One of these was the declaration on the treaty of Versailles and the league of na- tions, a subject of long-standing disagree- ment and bitter controversy. - Another dealt with industrial relationg, bringing into contrast widely diverse schools of cconomic thought. A third related to Mexico, always a topic of debate and now somewhat comnlicated by recent develop- ments south of the Rio Grande. On all of these entire harmony was predicted by all the party leaders, al- though most of them conceded that some interesting scrimmages, possibly reaching the convention floor, would have to be fousht out before there could be an agree- ment.

EIGHT PAGES—SIXTY 'c_om mnableNorLopnl,B!ltArew:ndSM Geneva, Switzerland: June 6.—At. the opening here today of the congress of In- ternational Woman Suffrage - Alliance, Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the American Woman Suffrage associa. tion, addressed the congress on the’ pro- ent throughout the Mrs. Catt said in part: or the suffragists of the world a few facts stand forth witn great clarity. The first and greatest is that ‘the po- litical liberation of women was. tossed up out of the war chaos like an isolated mountain when - the world was. in. the making. War, the undoubted original cause of the humiliating, old-age sub- jection of women the world around, war, the combined enemy of their emancipa- tion, war has tendered to the women of many lands their political freedom Strange, bewildering fact! ‘The Latin and Oriental countries still hold out but that will mot be for long. Rumania, the first Latin country to extend the vote to women, has already led the way, the others will follow. I believe no country in Europe except Turkey now Is without a woman suftrage association. Women _ will soon vote wherever men do. Yet while all these old barriers are swept aside in many Jands and men and women enfranchiseed. the task is not yet completed in the countries where women have labored the hardest and where the principle of de- mocracy has longest been unchallenged. There must be millions of women in arope who never hoped for political lib- erty and who are now dazed by its sud- den coming. The women of Norway, Den- mark and Iceland have long been enfran- chised, but Germany has outstripped all other nations in the recognition of the principle of equality, with 137 women serving on city councils and 37 as mem- bers of the national parliament. The president of the German National Suf- frage_association comes to this congress as a member of the City Council of Dres- den. 1t is not for me to interpret the senti- ments of the women, of other lands but with the authority I may sa that there are millions of suffragists in the United States whohave been fairly stupified with astonishment at tnese almost unaccount- able events. As all the world knows the United States of America has been dedi- cated from the first to the principle of self-government. No other mation has made the same pmnml;:‘;menll. “No_ other country, odiniah constitution, pringiples and l\l-mry! in its denial of votes {0 1t8-women and that Is why the extension of suffrage to the wos TRANSPORT BRINGING FAMILIES OF POLISH IMMIGRANTS New York, June §.—A transport bring- ing 800 wives and children of Polish™ im- migrants in this country is on the way from Dantzig to an American port, ac- cording to information received here by the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant society. This is the first group of a 1 of 50,000 families to be brought to America to be reunited with husbands and fathers from whom they have been separated by War for more than Six ears. 7 The Hebrew society has undertaken to find the wives and children of Polish im- migrants who have been prevented by the war from sending any aid to their families, many of whom have been driven out of their homes in the war zone and have become lost to their kind in this country “This is not & project of nmew immi- gration,” said John L. Bormstein, the ociety’s president. “Much harm has been done by the statement that we were ine ducink Jewish people of Poland to come over. That is not the fact. We have absolutely no, concern with any intend- el immigrants except the wives and chil- dren of men already in this country, more than §0 per cent. of whom are now American citizens.” Mr. Bernstein said that the work which the society was carrying on was done with the hearty consent and co-operation of the Bureau of Immigratiou and the State Department. “We began our work,” he said, “by ad- vertising that we would attempt to locate these men's families and help them to get to America. Our seventy agencies all over the country were immediately flood- ed with pleas from 50,000 men who, be- municate with tthem. In some cases the men had no idea where their loved ones were. Our task has been to take what In- formation we could get of the known residences of these wives .nd children and pui our commissioners in Poland on the trail to locat them. When this is done we advise the family head in America how much money it will take to bring his people over and help him through the formalities of proving. their right of admittance. new homes which are scattered over the United States but generally in cities, not in farms.” $1,000,000 ENDOWMENT 'Ol THE YALE MEDICAL SCHOOL New York, June 6. —Trustees of un general education board _and- ot Rockefeller Foundation announced night appropriations totalling $20,261.f nn for various purposes of general education and fo rthe development of medical schools. * In the list appears: Yale Med- ical school. for endowment (toward a total of $3,000,000), $1,000,00.
