WOULD CONSCRIPT WOMEN TO TAKE PLACE OF MEN

Dr. Anna .H.. Shaw Would Train Her Sex for War Work.

LYNN, IND.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., April 17. "The government has a right to conscript women Jut aa It has conscripted men after It has made them citizens. There will then be two armies a men's army and a women's army. Not. until women are organized this wr, under Kovernmental authority. wll women reach their maximum effl ctenoy In war service, and this time will not come until the United States Is In the thick of the fleht." Tn this wav Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, rational leader of women In patriotic and suffrage activities, summarized 'her views on women's war work. Dr. Shaw Is In Indlananolis for four r'svs of snoaklne. planning. aM conferring wlh colleagues from all Darts rf the United State. As chairman of the women's committee of the National Council of Defense, phe Is the leader of nafrlotlc activities among women of tne countrv: as honorary president of the National American Woman Suffrage association, she 1 looked uo to hv sll suffra-lsts as guide and mentor l tnojr work.

"As long as we are unenfranchised citizens we onnot possibly give ourselves entirely to the business of war. I feel the difference in my attitude before and after I gained enfranchisement as a resident of the state of New York. I have greater responsibility in rational affairs. If anything goes wrong I feel that I am personally responsible."

Wet and Dry Fight in Ohio Next November Expected to Be Bitter (By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, O., April 17. With the prohibition question predominating, one of the most bitter and hardest contested elections in the history of Ohio is expected next November. The wet and dry fight will go before Ohio voters in two forms. The drys have initiated an amendment to the state constitution providing for statewide prohibition, and in addition will make a hard fight to elect a legislature which will ratify the federal prohibition amendment next winter. As Ohio is nearly evenly divided on the state-wide prohibition question, the

wet and dry issue is expected to enter

largely into the regular political cam paign. A governor, lieutenant-govern

or, secretary of state and judges of the

supreme court are to be elected. So

far, no formal announcement of can

didacies have been made and both

parties have remained quiet on the

subject of endorsing state-wide prohi

bition. Last year Ohio returned a wet

majority of 1,173 on a proposed amend

ment to the state constitution. The

wet majority in 1915 was 55,408. The wets have initiated a proposed constitutional amendment providing for a referendum on the question in the event the legislature ratifies the federal prohibition amendment. Another proposed constitutional amendment to be voted upon was submitted by the last session of the legislature and would prohibit double taxation by avoiding a tax upon real estate mortgages. To date no unusual congressional contests have come, to view. The general interest seems to center in the prohibition drive and the gubernatorial fight. Present indications are that Governor James M. Cox will be a candidate for re-election on the Democratic ticket, and that his Republican opponent may be Frank B. Willis, former governor. Willis defeated Cox four years ago and Cox defeated Willis two years ago.

"PHONE 1234." (For Fire Only.) It started first, long years ago. When the world was in its youth When Ananias and his wife. Both failed to tell the truth. And though their fate is known to all. Their sad untimely death The lesson seems to count for naught, And matters do not mend. The Annanias Club has grown. And made the race go wrong: The world's prevaricators now, Are many millions strong. Their ranks are filled from every race, Of every clime and zone. With faithless ones, both poor and rich, . From hovel up to throne. But sometime in the future, For the world is past its youth They'll find a conflagration, For those who sold the truth. And where the flame leaps highest, And blinds Ananias' eyes, Will writhe the Kaiser Wilhelm In a fire that never dies. Grace D. Groce.
