League of Voters
[SPECIAL TO THE TIMES] CROWN POINT. IND., Aug. 23---Nearly one hundred women, representing many sections of the, township, assembled in the Crown Point library Thursday to organize a League of Women Voters. A call for this meeting had been sent out by the township chairman. Mrs. O. G. Fifield, and a large room full of
enthusiastic women was the response.
Mrs. Laura D. Floyd of East Chicago, the county chairman, was the speaker of the afternoon, giving most convincingly reasons as to why a League cf Women Voters is necessary. A large body of women bound together in one organization, is a power to be reckoned with in a community, where, effort by individuals or even by smail groups is nearly always ineffective. Mrs. Floyd put a great real of stress on the fact that the League is strictly non-partisan, and its main object is the. education of the women for their new work.
We must all vote, as a patrlotlc duty If for nothing else, but when women all understand that their votes are needed to correct social, civic and moral conditions that escape the eyes of the average politician, they will begin to realize how important a matter this is. As the ratification of the amendment by Tennessee as the 36th state was referred to the large audience applaud-
ed most vigorously. Mrs. Floyd proved to be a most interesting speaker and easily held the attention of the
ladies for more than an hour, making sure that every on knew what was expected of them before leaving for their homes. After the address Mrs .Floyd answered questions and explained anything that was not quite clear and when all was in order the League of Women Voters was formed, the ternporaxy organization being mads permanent.
Nearly all the women present became

ABOUT MOTORCYCLE TIRE CASINGS
Motoreycle tirea get as much abuse as any other type of casing manufactured. Because cf the fact that a motorcycle is compact and light, the rider drives along country roads and crosscountry where an automobile could not possibly travel. These roads are sandy, rutty and covered with sharp stones that give casings severe punishment. To show how well motorcycle tires are built, statisticians of The Goodyear Tire Rubber Company report that in 1919 the percentage cf replacement to ea'.es cn Goodyear motorcycle ca-sing was but cne-half of one per cent.
