Women and the State.The fifteenth biennial convention of the general convention of the

Federation of Women's Clubs is in session now at Des Moines, la. Manyhundred delegates representing 2,500.000 clubwomen are present, and theywill stay in session discussing important civic issues for a week. No partisanalignment on divisive issues will be permitted; but free discussion of themost vital of our domestic probftrms will be encouraged. Leading nationalpnd State officials, social service experts, and able women within and withoutthe club circle will share in the process of education. AdjournmentWill find a considerable number of voters in the coming elections betterprepared to vote intelligently than when they left home. They not on y*>rin vote as conscientiously but also as intelligently as their husbands,'brothers and sons.

The International Woman's Suffrage Alliance recently has been in

Session in Geneva, Switzerland, dealing with the most vital issues facingwomen who, to loyalty to the political welfare of their sex. add a profoundinterest in a better world-order in a law-governed world. The alliancehas not allowed the passions and enmities following the war to narrow

its tests of membership or to becloud its moral ideals. Though women

suffer most from war horrors and post-war poverty and disease they haveshown by their conduct at this conference that they more quickly than men

rise again to the altitude of goodwill, and sooner than the male fightersbegin to think with an "international mind."

These two conferences are symbols of new facts in contemporarypolitics that begin to be reflected in the platforms of the historic partiesJmd especially so in the programs or platforms of the newer and inchoateparties that are looming up on the horizon.

The Republican party's platform adopted last week at Chicago bears,visible signs of the pressure upon the leaders and platform makers of theNational League of Women Voter s demands in their'woman s platformso carefully framed and so finely balanced in its groupings of facts and

arguments. The league is not wholly pleased with the d^eeto which it

was obeled; but it certainly got more than ever was conceded before. Laterconventions of other parties may concede more. Upon the final »

«he last partv to assemble and a comparative study of all the platformsmany women will determine their votes. They are bent on protectingpromen and children. For that end they will dedicate their votes.

The State of the Payrolls.The wholesale resignations from the government service scheduled

to reach their peak on July I. are essential in order to make payrolls$t appropriations and in the evolution from a war-time to a peacetimebasis.

,.

Since the signing oi the armistice there have been .21,5.23 dismissalsfrom the service, and when the figures up to July 1 arc finallycomputed the number dropped is expected to reach closc to 40.000.[Washington on April 30 of the present year had cxactly 96.337 rcdera1employes, and with the payrolls once more on a normal basisJhe figures are expected to be well below 75.000.

Before the war there were 3^77 Federal employes, so that in

round numbers the civilian force has been practically doubled by theagencies created by the war which must continue until the period ofcomplete adjustment has been reached.

\ tendency to dwell upon inflated payrolls and to call for a

return to pre-war figures of employment by some misguided studentsof economy fails to consider that there are certain government functionsleft as a war sequel which must be continued, and they involvethe services of thousands of employes. I

The War Risk Insurance Bureau and the Federal VocationalBranch are but two of a number of such services which must continueindefinitely. It is possible to conceive the wave of protestwhich would sweep the nation over any neglect of the woundedsoldiers or inattention and delays which wholesale discharge wouldinvolve.

There was no Eighteenth amendment or Volstead law before thewar, nor the collection of income taxes such a stupendous task. Theenforcement of the law and the collection of these vast sums requirea vast armv of employes not necessary in 1917- These all come underthe Treasury Department, and partly account for the increase from8,285 of pre-war days to the personnel of 3'>^ *' present. TheLiberty Bond Bureau is another necessary service which accounts forhundreds of employes, and the taking and tabulating of the 19.20census swells the rolls of the Commerce Department by thousands.

It can thus be seen by a very simple analysis that the pre-warfigures, which many set as a goal for the government to once more

attain, do not allow for the normal growth of Federal activities andseemingly disregard the after-war services which must be continuedand which involve the employment of thousands.

The worst handicap the McAdoo campaign has yet encountered is thefact that the Wall Street gamblers favor him in the betting. Only a weekago they favored Wood and Johnson.

Over in Europe they're beginning to say that the league of nationswon't amount to much if America isn't in it. Over here both prosand cons have known it for a long time.

Women as a rule don't like to play second fiddle, and yet they'dbe very happy with the Vice Presidency if the Democrats really wantto get rid of it.

Boston, as she lands in seventh place by the census figures, willprobably retort that while figures don't lie those that make themfrequently do.

So Mr. McAdoo won't accept the Democratic nomination. Betteriy)t bet your last two pounds of sugar on this statement if you'reshort of sugar.

Reading President Wilson's latest interview the belief prevailshe'» following Gen. Grant's advice to fight it out on this line if it takesall summer.

^There's no disputing that all the Democrats' comfortably bound forSan Francisco favored at least one kind of reservations.

Gradually all of the New Yorkhotels are lifting the ban on dogs.It used to be that all of them permitteddogs, if not in the rooms inkennels in the basement. Then an

English concern came along andbuilt an exclusive hotel and theyliterally retailed exclustvenessOne thing they refused to permitwas a clog. Several other hotelshave scientific kennels and thosewho haven't kennels are permittingdogs of all kinds. But theyare making a charge of $1 a day.And What is that to a man wholoves his dog?Some way or other the bobbed

hair prejudice Is disappearing Itis true that the big departmentstores will not employ girls whobob their hair and this in spite ofthe fact they employ floor walkerswith balfl heads and Van Dykebeards.but It seems bobbed hairhas come to stay. Greenwich Villageput a stigma on the fashionat first. At one of the last nightsof grand opera a music critic countedten women in private boxes whohad bobbed hair. At the race*,smart cafes and theater they are

frequently seen. Many of themare married women who havefound it is the only way they can

keep their hair and still others findit the most becoming way forthem. One of the society journalstells of a matron past 60 who recentlyappeared at a social functionwith her silver hair bobbed.That Is perhaps going too far.

WEATHER VERDICTS.The weather man dispenses bunk.his daily prophesies are

punk: there is no merit in hissong, for he predicts theweather wrong.

This morn he gave the verdict"Clear." and claimed no cloudydays were near. 1 took thisverdict as my guide andcame home soaked unto the hide.

"No rain today." so runs hisline."Tomorrow clear and fullof shine".but let me trust hisweatherbill.and down the rain beginsto spill.

Or If his verdicts call for floods.1 doll me up in storm-proof dudsand e'er I'm fairly on my way therebreaks a hot and shining day.

I cannot trust the weather man.he fails me every time he can; Inweather bad or weather mild, hisprophesies are always wild.

Shrinking GownsBring Symphony

Of Protest HereCatholic women of Washington

endorse the stand taken byFather Antoine. of St. LouisCathedral, in New Orleans, whorecently ordered a bride awayfrom the altar to put on a gownmore in accordance with his ideasof modesty.Although leaders of Catholic

women's organizations in tWscity claim they have had littletrouble with girls under theirdirect charge in the matter ofimmodest dress, they have beenshocked by feminine attire seenon Washington streets.

"I certainly am In accord withthe action taken by Father Antoine."said Miss L». C. Flavin,director of the Calvert Club."While our own girls have beenvery modest in their dresssomething should be done abouttome of the extreme styles wejee elsewhere. 1 believe businessmen who employ such girls areas much to blame as the girlsthemselves.

"If they insisted that girlsdress modestly there would beless trouble."Miss Cox. director of the Maura

Club. 2408 K street, said: "Somejf the extreme styles seen onthe streets shock other modestjlrls."The I^adies of the Sacred

Heart, national sponsors of theChildren of Mary.' the sodalityal girls and young women in allparishes of the country, have issueda stringent rule regulatingboth the length of the skirt andthe height of the bodice ingirls' dresses.

TOMAP WORKCONTINUED FROM PAG* ON*.

In conference with this group. Mr.mltteeman from that State.

Mr. William* went to the conventionas one of the supporter*of Senator Hiram W. Johnson, ofCalifornia.

Mr. Hamon supported Mr. Ix»wdenat the convention, after fallingout with the campaign for Gen.Leonard Wood.Mr. Hillls was one of the active

supporters of Dr. Nicholas MurrayButler.Harding probably will choose theexecutive committee 4° co-operatewith Mr. Hays In the administrationof the campaign.

Mr. Hording conferred at lengthyesterday morning with George H.Clark, chairman of the RepublicanState advisory committee, relativeto political matters In Ohio. Mr.Clark was afterward questioned asto what ^attitude would be takentoward Hud K. Hynicka. chairmanof the Hamilton County advisorycommittee, for his failure to supporthis Instructions to support Mr.Harding at the Chicago convention.

"I think that those two votes atChicago were a political debt-payingproposition." Mr. Clark said, explainingMr. Hynickas votes forGen. Wood. "Col. Procter had savedMr Hynicka the position as chairmanof the Hamilton County advisorycommittee several years. Hewas asking Mr. Hynicka for somethingin return Mr. Hynicka neverforgets a friend."

Hrandegee A gala Caller.Senator Frank B. Brandegee. of

Connecticut, was again among Mr.Harding's callers yesterday, but thenature of their conference was notdivulged. Representative AddisonT. Smith, of Utah, called on Mr.Harding relative to the reclamationprogram of the West.

"The Republican nominee." de-clared John Barrett, director gen-eral of the Pan American Union, fol-lowing a conference with Mr. Hard-ing. "stands for practical Pan Amer- jicanlsm. Senator Harding's idea ofPan Americanism is of the sort thatwill be of benefit to every l.atinAmericancountry and individualJust as much as the United States."

Franklin MacVeagh. former Secretaryof the Treasury, sent the followingmessage to Mr. Harding yesterday:"Please accept the hearty and

loyal good wishes of a beaten Woodman. My acquaintance with you.that I regret is not greater, and thethings 1 know about you give mea personal Interest in your successwhich added to a keen sense of theimportance of a Republican victorymakes me very anxious for yourelection.

Predicts Harding Success."My guess is that inur attitude in

the campaign.from the beginning.will show that progressives of theWood stripe are easily included in>our political sympathies; and thatas a candidate.and subsequently asPresident.you will stand as a pro-gressivc conservative, which is asnear as need be to the resultant ofthe opposing tendencies of the party.And with that impression madeupon the public mind, and aided byyour fortunate personal advantages,you will surely succeed."John C. Price, attorney general of

Ohio, expressed confidence in Mr.Harding's election in a letter to him,and pledged his support. HelenVarick Boswell, chairman of thewomen's division. Republican Countycommittee of New York, sent the jfollowing message to Mr. Harding;"The women of New York con- !

gratulate the party and congratu-late you on your nomination for thePresidency. As one of the two worn-en delegates from the State of NewYork 1 had the satisfaction of actuallyvoting for you. and in doingthis, know that I was representingmany thousands of women who aredelighted that Ohio is again to givea President to the United States.

Women to Give Service."The women of New York County I

are content to give their service for !the party working under the guid- jance of the men who have for longbeen leaders and know what shouldbe done. We shall start our cam- jpaign for you right now and shall |keep it up with earnest enthusiasmuntil the day on which you areelected."

in this country faster than mostpersons realize who have not keptrun of events. Moreover, it is un-der way in sections of the country!where its ardent advocates in thegeneral population are few in number.Thus In Dawson, Colo., on thebroad bottom lands and surroundingbluffs of the fertile YampaHiver Valley a model citj^ is to arise200 miles from Denver. Farming;and coal mining, fruit raising andstock ranching are the main sourcesof income of the people. Impulsefor this future "planned town"comes from men who have investedin the mines and who do not wanta typical "industrial community"such as is found in the Kast or inEngland to arise. The town is tobe zoned from the beginning intoresidential, business, industrial andagricultural areas. Streets are tobe laid out with all the topograph-ickl variations of the site in mind.Paiks. of course, are a natural featureof the progressive plan. Theminers' and other residents' homesare to be standardized. The expertwho is co-operating with these newtype of industrial town builders isJohn Nolen, whose work is scat-tered from the Atlantic to the Pa-< iflc and from Massachusetts toNorth Carolina. His books on townplanning are sold widely.

Bishop Charles D. Williams, ofMichigan, who is prominent in thecounsels of the "Coram ttee of jForty-Eight" that is planning toput a third party ticket in the field.!is the leader of the progressive"social Christianity" element of theProtestant Episcopal Church and aman of large calibre and much -infavor as a preacher to universityaudiences. He is not as radical asRev. Percy Grant of the Church of'the Ascension, New York City, buthe is out on the "firing line" of jecclesiastical, political and socialreform.

Mr. Frederick Morgan Klrby. ofWilkesbarre, Pa., has given $100,<000to Lafayette College. Easton.Pa., to found a chair of civil rights.The instruction must be on "absoluterights." The fallacies ofsocialism and kindred theories. Iabhorrent to the donor, must berefuted so as to aid in conserving1"individual energy and thrift." Thecollege has accepted the gift. Nowthe selection of the man to fill thechair falls upon the trustees. "Absolutists"are not as common nowadaysas pragmatists.

Ellery Sedgwick, the esteemededitor of our esteemed contemporary.the Atlantic Monthly, havingbeen taken to task by some of hisreaders for publishing articles byRussian and German authors dealingwith contemporary events in away quite different from the editorialsof the Boston Transcript,lets these complainants know thathe is not running a chauvinisticAmerican monthly, but an interna- '

tionally-minded review. This isnot the first shock that Mr. Sedg-*wick has given the conservativereaders of the Atlantic. He personallyhas praised Bryan and Wilson;he has admitted Giovanitti's poetry;and he has a keen scent for auto-biographical material showing howthe plain folks of the nation live,residents of the ghettos, schoolteachers in Western mountain regions,and day laborers in shipyardsand stockyards.

Wallace W. Atwood. who succeedsG. Stanley Hall as president of ClarkUniversity. Worcester, is well knownin Washington scientific circlesowing to his twenty years' connectionwith the United States GeologicSurvey, which brought him tothe survey's headquarters for longeror shorter stays. Chicago is hisnative city and he grew up in thatsection of the country and In timebecame a professor in the local uni-versitv. having academic connec-tions there for fourteen years.
