(By W I I.I, f AM PHILLIP SIMMS) STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE WASHINGTON. ltc. 22. A business man for president and the price of. bread and meat as the one great Issue of the 1920 campaign, political longtieads of both parties here today adrnl will be the winning combination during the coming struggle. Speaking In seasonable parable, they declare democrats and republicans alike, that the wise men of the Kast or West, who would reach the White, House and its environs next fall must early and plainly write across their po. litical Star of Bethlehem, the motto "A Wasteless Administration and Cheaper Living for All." ALL ADMIT IT. Party leaders at national headquarters here do not try to conceal that this is the unmistakable sign of the times the handwriting on the wall. Every issue suggested thus far by either one of the great parties, when stripped of the fancy verbiage and the ringing phrases, will prove to be but a variation of that one all absorbing, if homely theme, the cost of living and how to meet it.

gating conditions, that the mass oC Americans is Interested in one thing, to the exclusion almost of all others, and that Is, getting living conditions back to normal . MIST PLEDGE RELIEF Basing their conclusions on what they have seen, heard and had reported to them, politicians here agree to wrap around its platform next year, the rough frame-work of that platform inevitably must be a formal pledge o relief from high prices. Anyhow, bo the wise acres of Washington are saying. AFTKIl THE WOMEN

Possibly, with some such idea as this in mind, both republican and democrat.

ic National headquarters here are making plans to capture the feminine vote

in 1920.

There are now nearly 15.000,000 wo. men voters in the United States. If

they voted they could elect any candidate they happened to fancy. President Wilson in 1916 polled but 9.129.60S votes and in 1908. the total vote for both candidates was less than the Toting power of American housewives today.
