IN SOUTHERN STATES

NASHVILLE. Tenn.. Aug. 14. Enlarged by the action of the Tennessee Senate in adopting a resolution providing ratification of the federal suffrage amendment, suffragists today :urned their attention to the house tfhere, they admitted, they expected to face more determined opposition. Neither house was In session today, both the senate and the house having recessed until Monday. Suffrage advocates and opponents, however, were busy attempting to securo 11th hour pledges of support from members of the house who remained in Nashville over the week-end. he house will reconvene Monday eiternoon at 2 o'clock. House leaders considered a vote on suffrage Monday afternoon improbable. Committee To Meet Monday The committee to which the ratification measure was referred Is expected to meet Monday night to con

sider it, and it was said today that no effort would be made to bring the suffrage question upon the house

floor before the committee has an opportunity to report. Members of the committee refused

to comment on the probable tenor of the report. Rumors were prevalent today, however, that an attempt might be made to bury the resolution in committe. If this is done, an effort will be made, suffrage advocates said,

to call the resolution up on the floor

of the house for a vote.

The vote in the senate yesterday of 25 to 4 in favor of ratification has

increased the confidence of the suf

fragists. Many of them had not e pected so lopsided a victory.

The consensus of opinion among both advocates and opponents of suf

frage today was that the result in the house probably would hinge on a very few votes. RALEIGH, N. C, Aug. Leaders In the North Carolina legislature were of the opinion today that neither the senate nor the house would vote before Tuesday on ratification of the federal suffrage amendment. It was predicted that action would be taken first in the senate, probably Tuesday and that if the ratification resolution introduced yesterday were adopted there it would then be considered by the house, where Jt was expected, a bitter, close battle would occur. Suffrage advocates, encouraged by Governor Bickett's message urging ratification and th favorable report by a senate committee of the ratification resolution, were confident today of success in the senate. Some of them were a bit dubious about the house. Sixty-three of the 120 members of the house signed the telegram sent to the Tennessee legislature urging it to defeat the suffrage resolution. Feel Sure of Victory Anti-suffragists said they felt certain all those who signed the telegram would vote against ratification, thus assuring defeat ol the resolution. Suffrage opponents also claimed they would be able to break into the suffrage strength in the senate, and predictions were made that the suffrage resolution never would reach the house. Ratification resolutions were introduced yesterday in both houses. Senator Scales, Democrat, called on the senate to ratify, while the house resolution was introduced by Representative Williams, Republican leader. The house resolution was still in committee today and leaders of the opposition said it probably would be left there.

pulses of civilized countries have been applied to the high purpose of making war practically impossible. The league of nations became the composite agreement and now the Senatorial oligarchy meets it with the absurd plea that it increases the possibility of armed conflict. It not only reveals unworthy intent, but a very poor estimate of American intelli gence as well." Declaring for "square dealing between men and no preference under government," Governor Cox warned against distortion of the basic principles of the government and added: "A powerful .combination of interests is now attempting to buy governmental control. They are raising millions and millions of dollars into a campaign fund. Just how it will be used, the future alone can tell. We do know it is being employed now to arouse racial discontent, to breed unrest, and to befog the public mind. Greed and Selfishness. "The movement is based upon greed

and selfishness, and if successful will!

result in an extreme reaction and a disordered society. Rather than make these groups of men the sponsors of government, they must be named to demean themselves under the vigilant restraining eye of a governmental policy based upon the golden rule. They have their own notions about the settlement of industrial disputes. They would enforce them with their puppets in office. They would continue profiteering and re-establish the rule of government by the few. They would establish a class feeling and make fair and honest readjustment impossible." The proposal of the Democrats to cut two billion dollars from federal expenses, Governor Cox said, also would guard against its multiplication many times in "illegal profits," and high living costs.

Coal Dealers Think Fuel Situation is Improved Richmond coal dealers are more optimistic regarding tL coal situation than a month ago. Co-operation of the railroads in shunting empty cars to the mines, and the recent extension of the priority orders tor coal cars until Sept. 21, have relieved matters a great deal, they say. One of the largest of local coal coal dealers says the supply on hand is far below the supply of normal years. He believes a serious shortage of coal has been averted, however.

Ten per cent more exports were shipped in foreign ships than in American vessels, the summary showed.

Sending County Fairs Whole Through Richmond A medley of animal noises issues from every baggage and express car passing through Richmond. The reason, according to the Pennsy baggage master, is that the innumerable county and state fairs now in progress, causes hundreds of specimens of the finest breeds of livestock to be shipped to the different fairs. Incidentally, Richmond farm implement concerns are sending specimens to the state fairs. Richmond employes are usually sent along to explain tho fine points.
